God Divided the Light from the Darkness

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.  And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. – Genesis 1:3-4 Here we see God calling light into existence. He saw that it was good and he divided the light from the darkness. He separated [...]

Why I Don’t Do Christmas Anymore

I hate Christmas. I have not liked Christmas for a long time — well over ten years. When I was single, living on my own, I recognized this holiday was propped up by the entertainment industry as a time of warm & fuzzy feelings, but for me it was very empty. This season wreaks of [...]

Why We No Longer Attend FBC

I’m finding that I might have made a mistake in not explaining our departure from church. I just spoke with someone who attended the same church we did for years, and they didn’t know why we left. She was surprised to hear that we were asked to leave. Let me first explain, my reason for [...]

Stone was Rolled Away

Joshua said they hung the kings on a tree until evening, removed their bodies at sunset, placed large stone/rocks, which remain to this day…except for the stone that covered Jesus/Yeshua’s tomb was rolled away.

No Other Gods

About a year or so ago, I started noticing when reading my Bible the Israelites were constantly being called to repent, to turn back to YHWH. They were continually being admonished for following after other gods or putting other gods in His face. I thought to myself, what is the deal here? Then I asked [...]

Reading the Bible

It has come to my attention that I might be offending people when I say “Read the Bible”, as if I was suggesting that people aren’t already reading their Bibles. If that is the case, I’m very sorry. One of the reasons why I continually say to read the Bible, is because I believe we [...]

Dietary Law: Unclean vs Clean Animals

What does the Bible have to say about the Dietary Law concerning Unclean Animals vs. Clean Animals? Leviticus 11 gives specific instructions from YHWH “concerning animals, birds, every living thing that moves in the water and every creature that moves about the ground.” He gave them to Moses and Aaron so that they might tell [...]

What is the Trustworthy Message?

Paul writes to Titus and explains to him about appointing elders in every town. After he lists a variety of character traits, he says (in 1:9), “He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.” The [...]

Tradition of Man vs Law of God

I noticed something long before I started keeping the Sabbath. One of Jesus’ biggest beef with the Pharisees seemed to be their adding to the law of God. They had all these added rules, laws and traditions that were never recorded in the written Law of Moses. Because of this and my huge lack of [...]

What Does This Mean?

Have you ever been reading in your Bible and something stands out to you, and you ask, “What does this mean?” Maybe you’ve read that passage a gazillion times (okay, maybe not that many, but a lot), and you think you know what it means, but you realize there’s a word or phrase in there [...]
