Question Assignment / Sunday School Lesson Tie-in

September 29th, 2014
Byron Earnheart September 28 at 9:52pm · Tunica, MS A little on the lighter side...my question tonight tied directly in to the Sunday School (yes, my church calls it Sunday School still!) lesson this morning. I love seeing the Spirit move like that...and to be just a simple (very simple) conduit for Spirit-work from little ol' small town Mississippi...it's pretty cool! Sometimes, I get way bogged down in theology and apologetics and the nuances (all important) that I forget to stop and smell the roses when He drops a . . .

On the unpardonable sin

September 29th, 2014
Jun Cotto September 28 at 9:39pm Hello everyone, I have a question regarding the unpardonable/unforgivable sin. The answer to "What is the unpardonable sin / unforgivable sin?" on the GQ site indicates that "This specific unpardonable sin against the Holy Spirit cannot be duplicated today." However, scripture seems to indicate otherwise: "Truly I tell you, people can be forgiven all their sins and every slander they utter, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of . . .

Is science an objective endeavor?

September 29th, 2014
Steve Ray Webb September 28, 2014 Is science a pure objective endeavor by truth seeking scientists? At the heart of many misgivings and mistrust among Christians is the belief that many, if not most, scientists have antipathy if not outright hatred towards Christianity and are working behind the scenes to discredit it. Do such scientists exist? Certainly. And many of them are found particularly in the field of biology. It has become a sad mess when we cannot trust science to take us forward to useful unbiased knowledge. . . .

Age of the Earth / Steve Webb’s Credentials

September 27th, 2014
Steve Ray Webb September 26 at 7:48pm Why should you listen to me when it comes to age of the Earth questions? My words are not inspired. I am not infallible. There are sincere influential Christians who disagree with me. I don’t claim to be the smartest geologist on the planet. And I have less prestige than many geologists who have published more than me. So why should you listen to me? First of all, I truly do honor the Bible as God’s fully inspired and accurate Word (plenary inspiration). Since my youth I . . .

More on Sea Level and Oil

September 26th, 2014
Steve Ray Webb September 26, 2014 · Edited As promised, here is my post explaining more about sea level change and why it is important to the oil business. Let me preface it by saying that geologic time, as measured in millions of years, is foundational to all our work as petroleum geologists. If it were not so I would have plainly told you. But in this post I am biting off a very small piece, namely what sea level variation and its age-dating have to do with finding oil. I will do this using the simplest example . . .

Request for template on breaking bad habits

September 25th, 2014
Steve Ray Webb September 25, 2014 I seem to get a lot of questions that have to do with breaking bad habits. I would like a good template that combines both the biblical side (I realize that GQ has one of these) and the practical side, as recommended by behavioral therapists. Does anyone have such a thing that I could plagiarize the heck out of? Thanks and God bless! LikeLike · Seen by 30 Ed Chait and Corpuz Valdemor Avellaneda Ramil like this. Tim White Steve, it . . .
