The birth of the Church begins in Acts 2 with Peter’s great profession of the Gospel at Pentecost. When they heard the Gospel, they were “cut to the heart” and their response was to ask Peter and the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” (Acts 2:37, ESV). Peter answered them saying, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:38). Peter’s answer to this question is not an answer you would hear had...

In this series of essays, I am going work out my theology of baptism in writing as I look at the various New Testament passages speaking to baptism. You may not agree with me, but I hope these studies on baptism will enrich your faith and give you even more reason to glorify God for the good things He has given us. I would love to hear your thoughts on these essays. What I seek is to have correct theology that brings glory to God and greater understanding to His people as they live for His glory. The only way for us to accomplish this is...

In Deuteronomy 6, we are commanded by God to teach our children about God and his commands. This is not optional for parents. Paul holds fast to this teaching when he says, “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” (Eph. 6:4, ESV). The full weight of this responsibility is specifically given to the father, who is the head of the house, but both parents share in the wonderful task of raising their children up in the Lord...

We, as Christians, base our whole lives on the presumption that God exists. But, are there good reasons to believe such a being exists? Can we logically defend our beliefs, or is believing in God the equivalent of believing in Santa Clause or the flying spaghetti monster? Fortunately for the Christian, there is good evidence that God does indeed exist. This is the first in a series of articles that will present various arguments for the existence of God. The Kalam Cosmological Argument...

“God is great.” We say it, read it, sing it all the time. But do we really know what it means? Take a second and think, “What does it mean that God is great?” Is God great because he has done some wonderful thing in your life? Is God great because he loves us? Or maybe God is great because he changed your life? While all of those things are true, they are only a portion of what God’s greatness is. To us, the word great means to be really good. But, in the philosophical sense, to be great means...
