Yesterday, the Lord Jesus had me share the following in the form of a Christian meme. Memes are intended to be short and something that someone can read without having to turn a page or to scroll down further into the document, so they can be useful tools for communication. But one of the...

Wondering what doctrines curriculum gets used by churches/youth groups? As a church staff memeber and Christian school Bible teacher I've had a hard time finding quality studies that are comprehensive and written for teens. I've written and published my own, but wondering if there's any other...

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread about the Bible where we can post some verses or reflection on Scripture. Feel free to do it in whatever manner you like, whether it just be free form mediation on the truth of God found in His Word or posting the parts of the Bible you've been...

The Bible is not based on information it is based on insights. The early Church Fathers were passionate to find truths from the Bible. This forum is created to find insights from the Bible. It will help to find the core theme of every chapter. https://www.missiologicalthinking.com/daily-devotions

What did Gordon Clark bring to the table that was new? Not looking for a debate, really just curious. It seems a lot of his work had to do with apologetics (my understanding of this = debate). But, what was new to his theology that previously was not believed by Christians?

I have questions around omniscient and omnipotent. I do believe God is both of these, but I do not believe in hard determinism. I read a lot of articles from folks who know a lot about this stuff, and have beliefs on both sides. I also see folks writing formula looking explanations. I guess my...

Question, does anyone know what % of Christians are Calvinists? Also, what percentage of Christians are Hard Determinists? My main curiosity is around Hard Determinism: when did this belief really work its way into the church, and again, what percentage of Christians believe in this?

I particularly liked the quote he thought was from St. Isaac the Syrian “God is not just, God is Love, if he were just I would be the first person condemned to Hell.

Hello, Browsing the categories here, I am an egalitarian, xennial non-word-of-faith charismatic. I became suddenly severely ill on the cusp of adulthood while co-leading a mission trip in a remote area in Latin America and have been disabled for over two decades (most of those years housebound...

Appreciate any feedback to my Theology Is the Love of God a feeling? Is it a concept that we cannot experience? Do we know what exactly is the Love of God? 1 John 4:7: "God Is Love" This means that everything he does is Love because He is Love. There will never ever be an action even in...

What are some connections we can see all throughout the Bible? Let's deepen each our knowledge all together! Also, I am leading some Bible studies on Zoom with some other brothers and sisters regarding this topic! Let me know if you'd be interested and I will be happy to share more info! God...

I see a wide spectrum of beliefs amongst liberal Christians, from those who affirm miracles and those who deny miracles. Given that liberal Christians seem more tolerant of people who depart from historic Christian understanding, are there any mandatory theological beliefs?

I found in Mere Christianity a quote that perfectly reflects my frustrations with some posts which seem to assume God is subject to time, when in fact He created time. Mere Christianity is one of the most widely accepted books of introductory theology, and hopefully CS Lewis might make the...

Glory to Jesus Christ! I hope to be a full-time theology teacher for high schoolers...I was recently blessed with the chance to be a long-term substitute, teaching Theology to high school freshmen, and LOVED it!! One thing I found out quite quickly is that (not surprisingly), 15-year olds...

Hello Brothers and Sisters in Christ, After completely finishing the reading of the Bible (the Bible in a year - Ascension podcast), I have been interested in how God's Word has been inspired through out the two millenniums. I am interested to see how the Canon of Scripture has been...

This is a well-reasoned and easy to follow description of the difference between God and everything else. It is a good introduction for, among many other subjects, the philosophical question of objective morality. R.C. Sproul: Before the Beginning: The Aseity of God - Bing video Edit: post #8...

The hymn I Gave My Life For Thee has the following verse (emphasis added): My Father's house of light, My glory-circled throne I left for earthly night, For wanderings sad and lone It appears to present the speaker, Jesus, as having a "glory-circled throne" that He left when He came to this...

I have an impression that arguments for (for instance) the divinity of Christ are usually made by referring to individual Bible passages. But for a creedal author like Athanasius arguments were also based on an understanding of transcendence and the overall Bible message e.g from para 51 CHURCH...

I thought I would run this idea by this forum first, given the intelligence and open mindedness of this community, although on reflection, while I am in some respects liberal, I am in other respects moderate, in still others, conservative, and in all things, inspired by temptation. So this...
