There is no balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul
The famous hymn “There is a Balm in Gilead” begins: There is a balm in Gilead To make the wounded whole There is a balm in Gilead To heal the sin-sick soul … The song is based on Jeremiah 8:22: Jer. 8:22 Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then […]
No Divorce–Just Legal Separation!
Scripture plainly teaches that God hates divorce, e. g. Mark 10:11-12: And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. But what about “legal separation”? Can a believer justify […]
Jesus is the mighty god, but not the Almighty God, says the Watchtower Society or Jehovah’s Witnesses
According to the Watchtower Society or “Jehovah’s Witnesses,” “Jesus is the mighty god, but not the Almighty God!” This is their explanation for Isaiah 9:6: For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The […]
New Christian Mutual Fund

If you do not have strong confidence that whatever you are invested in is not funding abortion, tobacco, alcohol, sexual perversion, and other evils, use the link on this page to […]
KJV margin vs Ruckmanisim
The original edition of the King James Bible had marginal notes (see the replica of the original 1611 in the Bibliology section here). These marginal notes, which are still reprinted in the Trinitarian Bible Society and Cambridge printings of the KJV, as well as being available in electronic versions such as for Accordance Bible Software, […]
Free Psalm Singing Resources
In the section on ecclesiology on my website, I have a number of resources discussing psalm-singing. I hope you are in a church that obeys the command to “sing psalms” (James 5:13; Ephesians 5:18ff.) and that you also obey this command in your personal life and in your family worship. If you are in a […]
“Q,” the Son of Man, and Christ’s Deity
The alleged document “Q,” according to critical or anti-supernaturalist scholars, underlies the New Testament Gospels. As explained in my study on the New Testament and archaeology, there is no reason to believe that “Q” ever existed. However, even if one granted, for the sake of argument, that “Q” did exist, it still provides evidence that […]
Gender-Neutral Language in Bible Translation is Unscriptural
Many modern Bible versions employ what they call “gender neutral” language. So, for example, the Authorized, King James Version of John 1:9 reads: John 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. by way of contrast, the New International Version reads: John 1:9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into […]
