    Daniel 9:27 and the Preterists

    I realize that the debate over the antecedent of "he" has raged for centuries, which would, I maintain, be idiocy were it not for the theological implications. I believe that the preterists were, on this occasion, very correct, but, with their assumption that Daniel's seventieth week ended three...

    Is the pastor truly our friend?

    We expect a friend to "watch our back." If we are in danger, we expect him to warn us. Naturally, we would do the same for him. Consider the pastor. Are we not "his flock"?

    Will the Lord "take you home" after an egregious sin?

    In posting this, I'm thinking of the sins of Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5) and of the many preachers who used this as a segue into how we, too, should be careful lest we meet the same fate. These same men would be quick to assign verses 12 and 15 to another dispensation, yet they do not do this...

    quantum physics and time

    It's interesting that those involved in the study of quantum physics have discovered that even time is composed of quanta. This means that time...as we know it...is a part of Christ's creation, along with mass and space. It follows that theologians should be quite cautious as they speak of...
