A brief review of the heretical doctrine of realized eschatology

Is new always better than old? Not always. Some modern trends have had a negative impact on the church.

Some have suggested that certain accounts within the Old Testament appear to depict God not as holy, kind, good, and merciful, but instead as unjust, mean, vengeful, and unmerciful. How can God be called “good” in light of such events?

What role does the nation of Israel play — past and present — in the plan of God? Does their illustrious past have any relevance today or in the future?

How should one interpret the use of the numeral 144, 000 in the book of Revelation?

The first recorded sermon of Paul occurred in Antioch of Pisidia (see picture of historical ruins). Some were converted, many were not.

The scope of a biblical verse may be expanded by supplementary information on the same subject in related passages. An understanding of this hermeneutical principle would prevent many an error.

Is there biblical evidence that there once was a rebellion among angels in heaven?

A seemingly casual reference to the eagle’s wing more than 2,700 years ago is remarkably scientifically accurate.

Cyrus was motivated by Isaiah’s prophecy concerning him. This may be an interesting example of the workings of providence.

In the book of Revelation there are several references to the seven spirits. To what, or whom, does this expression refer?

Did Jesus contradict himself as he approached the ordeal of the crucifixion? Some critics so allege, but what are the facts?

Sabbatarians contend that all of the Ten Commandments are binding today, including the requirement to “keep the Sabbath day holy.” They allege that if one argues that the Ten Commandments were abolished when Christ died, this would license all sorts of evil today. Is this argument sound? Wayne Jackson addresses this in this Q&A segment.

The declaration, “The righteous shall live by faith,” is found several times in the Bible. What is the significance of the expression? This essay explores this issue.

Are we baptized in the Spirit or in water?

Paul says “the head of the woman is the man” (1 Cor. 11:3). In what sense is this true? Does this apply only to religious relationships or is the principle broader?

Blaise Pascal (1623-62) had a brilliant mind. He became convinced of the genuineness of the Christian religion. At times, however, his argumentation left something to be desired.
