I think the concept of biblical inerrancy is meaningless, or at the very least a moot point. There is no one, whole, complete, perfect version of the bible in existence, and all the different copies that we have don’t completely agree. So it is obviously not literally inerrant. As far as being inerrant in content,

A Modern Parable
A man was walking downtown one day, and as he was going along his way, he was attacked, beaten badly and robbed. The assailants fled the scene and, unfortunately for the man, no one had witnessed the incident, so there was presently no one to help the man and call for further assistance. The man
On Evolution vs. Creation
I recently sat in on a couple of lectures / discussions on creation (and/or intelligent design) verses evolution. While I felt that this is a rather old debate, it’s one which obviously hasn’t gone away. For that reason I decided to post a few thoughts on the matter. I feel it is one of those

Judas Verses Peter (Part 2)
In my previous post, I compared Judas to Peter looking at their big failures. I now continue by considering how Jesus responded to Peter. Jesus’ harshest criticisms were directed at the religious leaders of his time. For this reason they often get a bad rap. However, a while ago I realized that, if we are
Judas Verses Peter (Part 1)
Judas and Peter. Both of these men were chosen by Jesus to be part of the twelve—the first sent ones representing the new Israel. Yet the two men had drastically different fates. I don’t believe this necessarily had to be so. Neither were perfect men. I mean, Jesus once rebuked Peter as speaking for Satan!
Prepared to Fight…
The team had been working all year toward this one goal. Countless hours of practice, drills, weight training, and conditioning had been undertaken in an effort to be the best. Tonight they had a chance to make this happen. The championship game was only minutes away. The players huddled together. The team’s captain and Heisman
Questions of Interacting With Differing Beliefs
This post is part of the July 2015 synchroblog which invited bloggers to write about “Gay Marriage”. Due to the “hot topic” nature of this subject, I’ve written quite a few times about homosexuality already. In this post, I want to try briefly and (hopefully) clearly state some of what is important to me in
Which Came First, God or the Bible?
The title of this article is of course a play on the well known question, “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” I think virtually any believer would say that God came first. The question I actually want to get to though is, “Do you believe God because of the Bible, or do you
The Book of Job (Including Summary Outline)
It’s easy to follow God when things are good, but how do you handle life when it is difficult? The book of Job is included among the wisdom books in old testament of the Bible. This had confused me in the past as it seemed to be recounting history. Now upon reflection, I realize that
