Clouds?
So I’m reading the book of Acts the other day in Chapter one. Just before Jesus goes Superman and flies up, up, and away. Kind of a strange visual. I wonder if the hem of his garment was actual a red cape?
Anyways, I always thought Jesus went to infinity and beyond and then you read [...]
Further Responses to Shiloh on the “Elohim”
As to the subject of’ “images”: even the appearance shape of a galaxy can change depending on the color of light with which it is viewed. Many times things can seem to be a certain way but in reality are different than they appear. Applied to viewing the Bible, a lot of factors are: the mental angle of view [...]

ELOHIM
The word for God in the Old Testament writings is Elohim. In fact it is the fourth word spoken in Genesis 1:1. “In the beginning God (Elohim) created the heavens and the earth”. It is a word that is used over 2,500 times alone in the Old Testament and yet very little is known about [...]

The Canon (Part 2)
It would take very little time to talk about some of the problems with canonicity, its development, authorship, and the discrepancies within it.
I could spend pages writing about how many don’t believe Moses is the true author of the Pentateuch. Or I could discuss verses that were added to scripture we [...]
If the Eye be Single
It is interesting that Jesus said that the opposite of a single eye is an evil eye.(Matt 6:22:24) Of-thal-mos’ is the Greek word given for eye and is probably better rendered ‘vision’. It seems that there is something inherently evil when one’s vision is not focused and single. It tends to dilute everything else one [...]

You ever been to a gym and seen someone working out with a tape deck walkman? Talk about funny. Who are these people? You have to wonder if they have been around for the past 20 years. Although they are living in the dark ages, it does seem like they are enjoy their music as [...]

It seems as if there has been a great ignorance that has taken over the church when it comes to the spiritual. Perhaps it is a fear of the unknown, or a just not wanting to know. Whatever the reason might be, it is evident that the church has traded in spiritual knowledge for moral [...]

The Formation of the Word. It happened one, clear summer night. The year was unknown. The entire universe was in perfect alignment. The heavens spoke, the earth listened and then erupted in joyous celebration. The wise men wept and lifted their hands in praise, the shepherds of the fields and their flocks danced. This was [...]
