If you were one of Jesus’ apostles and had to distill the ministry of Jesus and put it in, as Matthew did, 28 chapters and so many pages, where would...
The Gospel of Matthew #15
It is hard for me to imagine Jesus being surprised at anything. After all, Jesus knows the thoughts and intents of the heart, doesn’t he? Isn’t he abl...

The Culture War
I told you so. Months ago, I told my audience that Christians were making a big mistake when they allowed themselves to be characterized as Christian...
The Gospel of Matthew #6
John the Baptist was a very influential preacher. He was not a limousine evangelist; he did not fly into town on a jet and get picked up in a limo. He...

Introduction to the New Testament #11
The Gospel according to John is a very special book. If you ask me to explain why, I would have a hard time telling you. It is the fourth Gospel, but...
Introduction to the New Testament #10
We take the reading of histories for granted, and it is hard to realize that most people haven’t got a clue what it takes to actually write a history....
Introduction to the New Testament #9
