Walking After Our Own Devices By : Dana Smith Jeremiah 18:12 And they said, there is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart. God Authored All Scripture For Our Benefit By : Dr. Jay Snell As you delve more and more into the Book of Hebrews, you will become aware of something you have never seen before: namely, the author of Hebrews is more emphatic than any other Bible writer about one major theme; God wrote all the Old Testament Scriptures. This author quoted at least thirty one Old Testament Scriptures in the book of Hebrews. Even when he knew the name of the human instrument that God used to write Scripture, this author spoke as though the Scripture was ... A Faith Building Device By : Dr. Jay Snell Thirteen times, in the book of Hebrews, the author uses an edifying, faith building Greek device. This device usually begins with the expression �let us.� I call it simply a �let us exhortation.� In other words, when an author used this grammatical device, he/she simply exhorted someone to join in with him/her in an action. He/she could exhort one to join in and help start an action that had not yet begun. Or he/she could exhort someone to join in an action that had b...

(KJV) In this Scripture, Isaiah declared to us that Jesus died for our sickness and pain as well as our sins. Many, many translations of the Bible s...

Unlike young earth creationists, old earth creationists simply don�t know exact dates (some YECs believe ... Word Study: Yom By : Greg Neyman The Hebrew word for �day� is the word �Yom.� Young earth creationists have always argued that the word used for the days of creation can only mean a 24-hour day. In this article, we will examine the uses of Yom in the Old Testament, and show that it can mean a wide variety of time periods. First, one must understand that the Hebrew language is not nearly is diverse as our English language. Whereas we have millions of words, the Hebrew source for the Old Testament only consi... Can I Be A Christian And Believe In An Old Earth By : Greg Neyman Yes, you can! There is no verse in the Bible which causes you to accept a young earth as the only answer. The Bible does not say, "Thou shalt believe in a young earth." The fact is, no verse in the Bible makes any claims as to the age of the earth. All the so-called verses that young earth proponents point to can be interpreted by the reader to mean old or young. Also, the key doctrines of the Bible are not affected by either interpretation. Many young earth believers will ... Bishop Ussher's Dates: No Proof Of A Young Earth By : Greg Neyman For hundreds of years Christians have appealed to the dates formulated by the 17th century bishop, James Ussher. Using biblical genealogies from Genesis 5 and 11, and other supporting Biblical passages, he pieced together a timeline for Biblical events. Many Bibles have this timeline in the margins, indicating the estimated year that the events on that page occurred. Many people still swear by these dates, especially the one indicated for Genesis Chapter One, 4,004 B.C. Ma... Prayer Is The Best Thing!

Bettridge This is a great article about how God dealt with man in the Old Testament Healing And Prosperity Scriptures Include All Christians By : Dr. Jay Snell Deut 8:18 18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. (KJV) This Scripture was written to and for the Abrahamic Seed Group. When a Gentile accepts Christ as his/her Personal Savior, he/she is immediately grafted into this Abrahamic Seed Group. Consequently, Gentile Christians are included in the great prosperity promise above. Th... What the New Testament is About By : C.F. Bettridge The New Testament makes up about one-third of the Bible.
