What Have They Done with Jesus – Roundup
I have delayed the final post in my notes on Ben Witherington’s book What Have They Done with Jesus? for quite some time. In the meantime I have read Backham’s book Jesus and the Eyewitnesses [my review]. Bauckham provides a much more coherent account of the principles that it appears Witherington is using, partially because…

Perspective – Talking As If
And Joshua said, “By this you will know that the living God is among you, and that he will certainly drive out from before you the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Hivites, the Perizites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, and the Jebusites.” — Joshua 3:10 The king and his men went to Jerusalem, against the Jebusites who…

Scientific Study of the Supernatural
In a post a few weeks ago I commented that science could not study the supernatural. Regular commenter Lifewish, who blogs at Metasyntactic, brought up the expected and proper question in a comment: Please insert the usual question here about why precisely it is that supernatural effects wouldnt be subject to science.

I am a Christian, a Bible teacher who normally spends hours daily studying the scriptures. I found this video by Dr. James White…

Patience for the Nuts and Bolts
Last night I attended a Bible study in which my pastor was teaching on Romans 1:22-32. If that verse selection doesn’t fully make sense to you, consider that he was simply following up from the point at which he stopped the prior week. My pastor is Dr. Wesley Wachob, an accomplished exegete. One of the…

Christian Carnival #249 – Deep Breath Edition
The U. S. election is over and we have a new president-elect. No matter how happy, indifferent, or distressed you are about the result or not, take a deep breath and remember just who is in charge of all this. I am thus taking my theme from Daniel 4. I’m taking the posts in order…

Reflection after the Election
Since I had decided long ago what my vote would be, and the man I thought the better (though not nearly perfect) candidate won, it was enjoyable for me to watch. I really don’t want to dwell on the details. The greatest problem for President-Elect Barack Obama may not be any of the crises with…
