There is a whole world of Prophesies in each page of the Bible. My purpose is to shed light on these prophesies for all of the world to see.

Presented with many questions that neither theologians nor ministers could answer, then becoming frustrated and disgusted over the lack of resolutions to my questions. God told me that if I would continue to pray, read, and research the word of God that He would reveal to me all of...

Parable of the Two Sons, is about how we have responded to doing the works which Father God requires of each of us. Using my own example, I trace the words and actions of the son who in the parable given by Jesus, said, "I will not work in your vineyard." Then later repented and went to work. It is a good parable to cause self examination, and perhaps motivate people to take action in doing their Fathers' work.

Jesus said, to the religious leaders of His time, "You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me; and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life" (John 5:39-40). In these verses, Jesus spoke a profound truth that has not been completely understood. He said that the religious leaders of His time were searching the Scriptures for some mystical formula that would give them life, when they should...

Medieval Churchmen heard the legend of Prince Siddhartha (the "Bodhisattva," or "Buddha-to-be") renouncing his wealth and seeking salvation as a monk, but they mistook it for the history of some Christian monk named "Iodasaph" (a corruption of "Bodhisattva"). Iodasaph was canonized as an official saint. The ironic result was that Gautama Buddha is a Roman Catholic saint! <br><br>What if such a remarkable...

Now that we've faced it, we're older, wiser . . . and rightly on guard against this fallen world. Or are we? Could it be that our cranky moods and critical words aren't just momentary lapses but evidence of a fatal poison creeping into our spiritual root system? Bitterness—the word...

Do you feel truly alive or are you just going through the motions in life? The fulfillment you seek can be found in worship—a worship that starts within you. The sweet psalmist David provided us his key to worship, which God vowed would never end. Once you know where you fit into this pattern of worship, and experience its freedom, you will never opt to live a life of merely going through the motions again. You will worship not because you are told to, but because you love to. In...

The final chapter offers a step-by-step method for completing a thorough hermeneutical analysis framed within a discussion of the gospel message. Trajectories also seeks to situate Old Testament...

What used to be an exotic religion of people halfway around the world is now the belief system of people living across the street. Through fair, contextual use of the Qur'an, apologist James R. White presents Islamic beliefs about Christ, salvation, the Trinity, the afterlife, and other important topics. White shows how the sacred text of Islam differs from the teachings of the Bible in order to help Christians engage in open, honest discussions with Muslims.

"Since the rise of modern biblical scholarship there has not been unanimity as to how to characterize Paul. He has been praised for having delivered Christianity from Judaism. Lately it has been argued that he remained so thoroughly a Jew that he was not a Christian at all. Others think he became a Christian because he had become a totally frustrated Pharisee by his failure to observe the law of Moses. Some consider him to have been a male chauvinist with few redeeming qualities. Others see...

The gospel of John, titled simply «According to John» in ancient manuscripts contains some of the simplest language in the New Testament. The Greek of this book is so simple that it is often used in teaching beginning students to read New Testament Greek. Pastors and teachers often recommend the book as a good starting point for new Christians reading the Bible for the first time. But the simple vocabulary and structure belies an extraordinary spiritual depth. While there are lessons to be...

The way in which we read the Bible grows out of what we believe the Bible to be. Thus it is impossible to discuss methods of interpretation without considering our view of inspiration, the gathering of the canon, and even the reception of the Bible by the community of faith. And so, Edward W. H. Vick starts this comprehensive discussion of hermeneutics—the interpretation of Scripture—by looking at what the Bible is, and what empowers its authority. He brings a lifetime of experience, teaching...

He hopes it will prove a worthy contribution in the college, seminary and university classroom, both interesting...
