The female-ministry question has a God-spoken answer.  The Bible gives clear and definite guidelines regarding the position of women in the church, in the society and in the family.  The Apostle Paul, who received his gospel directly from Jesus Christ (Gal. 1:12), wrote this while under the power of the Holy Spirit (2 Pet. 1:21): […]

“What do you think about women preachers?” is a question often asked in religious circles.  A controversy has arisen concerning the question.  Should women be allowed to minister in the church, or not?  Some say yes, some say no.  Who is right?  In the past, most churches prohibited women from preaching or teaching.  Later, some […]

Again, the answer to the title question is “Yes” if one happens to be of the Catholic persuasion.  However, for those who believe God’s Word, the answer is a resounding “No.”  Let us be reminded that “ALL Scripture (Old and New Testaments) is given by inspiration (spoken to man by God via His Holy Spirit) […]

Before answering the question, let us examine the inner workings of a cult in that professing Christendom is comprised of several hundred of such organizations which fall under two broad headings: Catholicism and Protestantism. Contrary to popular opinion, a cult is not necessarily a bad thing.  A cult evolves when a person gathers around him/her […]

Ancient Israel is Biblically known as God’s “church in the wilderness” (Acts 7:38).  The English word “church” in Greek is “egglesia,” meaning a congregation of people.  The same word applies to the modern day two-headed, multi-bodied conflicting, contesting, contentious body known as Catholicism/Protestantism, a loosly-united religious body made up of the descendants of the wilderness […]

“The habit of saying smooth things and uttering pious platitudes and sentiments to gain applause, without relation to the underlying facts, is more pronounced now that it ever has been in my experience.” Those words were written by Winston Churchill during the Nazi military build-up following World War I that would eventually lead to World […]

Did Jesus die on a two-piece cross?  The Companion Bible states that: … our English word ‘cross’ is the translation of the Latin word ‘crux;’ but the Greek stauros (an upright stake) no more means a crux (cross) than the word ‘stick’ means a ‘crutch’ …. It (stauros) never means two pieces of timber placed […]

The most popular “sign” (“proof”) that one is a Christian is the cross–a man-made symbol composed of two pieces of material running diagonal to each. The cross is so internationally well-known as a religious sign that even the heathen acknowledge its meaning even while denying the existence of the One Who died on it. Professing […]

John 3:16,17 states: “For God so loved the world ….” that He wants everyone in the world to be saved.  Consensus holds that everyone who believes that statement is saved by acclamation, by proclamation from on high, and that John 3:16,17 (the headline) proves it.  Nothing could be further from Biblical Truth.  The Apostle John, […]

Truth seekers know God’s formula for Bible study as recorded in Isaiah 28:9,10.  In this passage the prophet tells us how to gain understanding and knowledge of God’s Word/way/Truth.  Speaking in the power of the Holy Spirit (2 Pet. 1:21) he tells Truth seekers to study God’s Word “… precept upon (added to)  precept, precept […]
