Re: Zacchaeus
Not to swerve this away from the meaning of his repayment, but on the side issue of short in stature possibly meaning young in age; I understand the words could mean that possibly, but the context screams out that we're speaking in terms of physical height in my opinion 3 And he sought to see who Je...

Re: Pledges of Allegiance
Can you not be devoted to the best for your country without pledging allegiance to it?

Re: A marriage that disagrees on tithing
Thanks for the prayers, Bud. We could use them. I agree with you completely Paidion. The problem is, she's been convinced of the storehouse tithing argument and I can't seem to show her the other side of the issue. I think she's afraid to be wrong on the issue and would rather not risk it. I used to...

A marriage that disagrees on tithing
Hi guys. I just wanted to throw my situation out there to see if I can get any advice. I'm the kind of guy that wants to limit the problems in my marriage as much as possible. I'm married to a good Christian woman who loves the Lord and wants to do His will. She's convinced that tithing to the local...

Re: Pledges of Allegiance
In recent years I've tended to stand with my hand on my heart and my mouth shut during corporate pledges of allegiance to the USA. I may be mistaken, but my assumption is that allegiance is an undivided devotion to a person or entity. I don't mind pledging that to God, but if I also pledge allegianc...

Flood=Baptism=New Life in Christ (type, type, antitype)
1 Peter 3:20 who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited[f] in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. 21 There is also an antitype which now saves us—baptism (not the removal of the filth of th...

unforgiveness=unforgiven?
Not sure if I heard right or not. I usually at least always partially agree with Steve, but I thought I'd heard him say something that I (at least at this point) fully disagree with. He (or 'you', Steve, if you're reading this) said something on Wednesday's hour long show to the effect that unforgiv...

Re: destruction of Damascus
Is 'ceasing from being a city' a common hyperbole employed elsewhere in scripture?

Re: destruction of Damascus
Alright. Thanks, Steve. I'm so rooted in western literalism that Biblical poetic hyperbole is something I'm slowly grasping. Though I've come a long way, this one kind of threw me. I have a dispy friend that pointed this out to me and I didn't know how to answer.

destruction of Damascus
Isaiah 17:1-3 “ Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, And it will be a ruinous heap. 2 The cities of Aroer are forsaken; They will be for flocks Which lie down, and no one will make them afraid. 3 The fortress also will cease from Ephraim, The kingdom from Damascus, from what I understand D...
