Writer Discussion on Christians’ Understanding of the Bible

February 8th, 2015
Steve Ray Webb February 7, 2015 The below quote from Relevant Magazine points out what I consider one of the most offensive areas about Christianity. I have been a Bible student since my youth and there are certain doctrines that do not resolve in Scripture no matter how much time I spend studying them. Yet those are often the same doctrines about which there is so much dissension and division among Christians and denominations. Why can't we be humble and gracious enough to admit that in some areas, "We simply don't know . . .

Q&A – Is God still creating?

February 4th, 2015
Ed Chait February 1 at 10:28pm · Edited I received this question and need some help. Question 380188: I came across your 'How are human souls are created?' article again, and had a question/wanted to touch on part of that article. Your quote "The weakness of Creationism is that it has God continually creating new human souls, while Genesis 2:2-3 indicates that God ceased creating."

Update on prayer request from a writer

February 2nd, 2015

I want to thank you and everyone for their prayers, Maile has woke up, about three days ago, at first she was very confused, this comes with the state she was in, as of today she is back to normal, she has so many doctors working with her, I call them team Greco, they are all doing the best they can for her, she should be coming home next week, and then the very long haul starts, it takes a year minimum to get on the list for a new liver transplant . . .

January 19th, 2015
Christopher Dupre January 18, 2015 Do we have a 'starter pack' of resources for new Christians? I guess we all should have one in our hip pocket to give, but I don't. Like · Seen by 30 Ed Chait, Lincoln Bostick and 2 others like this. Tim White Ditto. I am still looking for that right one.

Q&A on Practicalities of Sacrificial System

January 16th, 2015
Ed Chait January 15, 2015 This ministry is so amazing because God is so amazing. I am learning so much from the questions being assigned to me! I thought I would post my last one. Question 376842: It seems to me almost impossible to carry that out: sacrifices for a few hundred thousand / million people at one spot - the ark of covenant / temple, so many pieces of animals, time of burnig vice 24hours a day... (?) Also so much blood poured out onto on place (have heard the soil was extremely "soak-able" there). How was all . . .
