Street Preaching in San Francisco by Ghirardelli Square

A few weeks ago I had the privilege of preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ on the street in San Francisco, near Ghiradelli Square by Fisherman’s Wharf, where one of the cable car lines ends.  (Perhaps by the time this post goes live I will have done it again.)  I had wanted to start engaging […]

The New Rising Hatred Against Israel in the United States

Jews are a relatively small group of people compared to the whole world.  Israel is a tiny, little nation.  They are a couple of gnats landing on a large person.  Proportionally the Jews and Israel receive a very big, gigantic reaction from the rest of the world.

Christ’s Genealogies: Eusebius / Africanus on Matthew & Luke

The genealogies in the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke both record the family history of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Matthew traces the Lord’s genealogy back to Abraham, while Luke traces the geneology back to Adam.

New Testament Greek, Bill Mounce, 1st Semester Videos Online

I am thankful to announce that all the videos teaching the first semester of Biblical Greek are now online!  The main textbook used is William Mounce, Basics of Biblical Greek.

Government Intimidation Now In the United States Related to Persecution

While working on something else, yesterday I listened to portions of the Supreme Court arguments for and against the January 6 protestors.  Elizabeth Prelogar, the Solicitor General of the United States, argued to the nine justices, representing the present government of the United States and its Department of Justice.  I have to say, I would […]

THE MOOD IS NOT THE PROBLEM IN MOSCOW, IDAHO (part two)

PART ONE Over a decade ago I read a book by Douglas Wilson, that described a philosophy for his writing, represented in the title:  A Serrated Edge.  His and the Moscow, Idaho mood is portrayed by a serrated edge and the use of satire.  Let me again announce that I accept Wilsonian written serration.  It’s […]

Agora to Areopagus: Paul on Mars Hill in Athens (Acts 17)

We are glad to be back!  We were in Greece with Tutku Tours, seeing the Biblical sites there, such as the Areopagus (which I will say more about shortly), and are just catching up after getting back.  (That is why I had not written any Friday blog posts recently.)  We got to visit Biblically-related places […]
