What’s All This ‘In Christ’ Business About?
Sometimes we born-again believers talk in such a closed-circuit Christianese dialect that baby believers, old line denominational members, let alone your everyday garden variety sinner has no idea what we’re talking about.

I’ve often offered a one-hundred-dollar bill to anyone who can do that. I still have that hundred-dollar bill. Some people thinkContinue reading “How Do I Get to Heaven?”
How Can I Trust the Bible?
Sometimes we try to define God’s words and actions too perfectly. In our arrogance we think we can adequately describe exactly what God always means in all situations. This easily can lead us into thinking our doctrines are God’s doctrines. We act as if God is sitting on the throne studying our catechisms and judgingContinue reading “How Can I Trust the Bible?”
