Revelation 3:14 Revisited: Jesus as the Arche of God’s Creation Paid Members Public
The following is an excerpt from a book written by two noted Evangelical scholars that address the misapplication of Revelation 3:14 by arian cults such as Jehovah’s Witnesses to prove that Jesus is the first creature that God brought into being. “The Beginning of God’s Creation”: The
The Only True God and the Deity of Christ – Why Translations Matter Pt. 2a Paid Members Public
In my previous discussion (/2019/06/05/the-only-true-god-and-the-deity-of-christ-why-translations-matter/), I employed the English Standard Version (ESV) of the Holy Bible to show that the Lord Jesus, in union with the Father, is identified as the only Master, Lord, and God of all creation, especially of believers.

Does the Bible Really Command Dashing Babies Against the Rocks? Paid Members Public
Muslim polemicists often cite Psalm 137:9 to prove that Holy Bible is cruel and barbaric since this specific Psalm condones, and even blesses, anyone who brutally murders infants. Let us quote the Psalm in context to see what in fact the Psalmist meant: “By the rivers of Babylon we
A Contradiction In Luke? Paid Members Public
Muslims think that the following Lukan text is in error and even proves that Jesus wasn’t killed: “Nevertheless I must journey on today and tomorrow and the next day; for it cannot be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.” Luke 13:33 These polemicists assume that the
