I have been fascinated by the Shroud of Turin for years, purported to be the burial shroud of Christ. Through the years, as the evidence mounted and science was unable to explain how the image was produced, I slowly moved from a position of skepticism to one of belief that…

I’ve always been fascinated with the Shroud of Turin. It seems that the more we study it, the more incomprehensible it becomes. There is an interesting article here by Theology in Five entitled “The Shroud of Turin: A Case That Refuses to Go Away”. The author concludes, “Absolute proof may…

In 2007 (note the reference to an “Ipod”), Russell Moore offered a powerful opinion piece here entitled “Retaking Mars Hill.” “What pop-culture-engaging Christians need to understand most from Acts 17 is the Athenians’ response. Luke tells us that what arrests the attention of the Athenians is not the so-called bridges…

In Romans 1, Paul warns of the consequences of rejecting truth. In Col 2:8, he warns of being taken captive by deceit. In 2 Thess 2:13-19 he warns of deception because people refuse to love the truth. In our world with instant global communication technology, deceit spreads easily and rapidly.…

Mankind was created sinless by God in his image (Gen 1) but fell into sin and rebelled against God (Gen 3). Sin infects everyone and separates us from God (Rom 3:23), leaving us completely unable to earn merit in God’s sight by good works of our own (Gal 2:16). Jesus…

The resurrection of Jesus Christ ruptured the space-time continuum, rippling through time both forwards and backwards, overlapping the future with the present while fundamentally altering death for the believer. An exegesis of John 11:25-26 (which I’m working on in my doctorate) establishes the incredible impact of “quantum change” effected by…
