You do not have to be a professional apologist to see one of the most massive differences between the Bible’s recorded history and the secular evolutionary view of history. That difference is the great flood of Noah’s time. Genesis chapters 6 through 9 record how the world of that time became so wicked that every thought of their hearts was evil continually (Gen. 6:5). Because of this great evil God instructed the only righteous man left, Noah, to build an ark to save his fam

Few healthy things in life are “one-and-done.” Consistency is needed in nearly everything! Do you want to have healthy teeth? You cannot just brush them occasionally. You must brush and floss every day, twice a day, for the rest of your life. Do you want to have a healthy relationship with your spouse? You cannot just put effort in randomly. You must put effort into your marriage day-in and day-out for the rest of your life. Similarly, if you want to have a healthy spiritua

Buzzwords and catchphrases are rampant in the religious world. People often repeat common phrases without understanding them, simply because they have heard them over and over. “Obey the gospel.” “Believe in Jesus.” “Pray Jesus into your heart.” The list goes on. Now, there is nothing wrong with repeated phrases; repetition helps us remember facts. But, if we are repeating phrases without understanding what those phrases mean, then we may be unintentionally promoting false

In the world of Biblical academics, there are no lack of theories stating that the New Testament was not written in the first century by the apostles and prophets. While these theories are many and varied, most of them carry a common underlying premise: The rejection of the supernatural and the miraculous as they search for purely human means by which the harmony of scripture and fulfilled prophesy could happen. As a result, they invent increasingly complex theories...

There was a time in the not-too-distant past when members of the church of Christ were known as people who knew the word. Sadly, that cannot be said quite as confidently about us in more recent decades. Too many people make excuses for not memorizing Scripture. They may say that they are not smart enough or that it is too difficult. They may say they are too busy. Regardless of which excuse someone uses, they are refusing to put the work in - but it can be done...

For many years we have hosted an annual Apologetics seminar in November. Two important questions often arise about this practice. The first question is, what does apologetics mean? The second is, why do we host these seminars on such a frequent basis? These are great questions! This brief explanation will help everyone better understand the value of these seminars and hopefully motivate us to share this opportunity with everyone we know...

Many people think that Bible reading and Bible study are the same. They are not. Simply reading the Bible is great for familiarizing ourselves with scripture, and for setting our minds on things above, rather than on things bellow. Bible study, however, goes deeper than Bible reading.

Many of us struggle with feelings of self-doubt and insecurity. These feelings impact many different areas of our lives. The area that we are going to discuss today is our Bible study.

The doctrine of Premillennialism relies on the false premise that Jesus failed in His mission when He came to earth two thousand years ago. The claim is that Jesus was supposed to set up an earthly kingdom in Jerusalem. When the Jews rejected Him, they thwarted God’s plan and the church was set up as an emergency backup plan. It also relies on the false premise that the return of Christ will be preceded by various signs, which will alert the faithful that His return is immine
