Was Noah Good?
http://www.amazon.com/Was-Noah-Good-Narrative-Testament/dp/0567027163 The juxtaposition of ‘favour’ and ‘righteousness’ in the flood narrative raises an interpretative and theological problem: Is Noah chosen because of divine favour or because of his piety ? Source-critical scholars identify two different theologies by J and P: J understands Noah’s election to be an act of grace whereas P emphasizes Noah’s righteousness […]

Bart Ehrman, Steven Anderson, Chris Pinto…
What do these three men have in common? They are bent on confusing the people of God and undermining their faith in Scripture. James White addressed the latest by these men here on his radio show: http://www.aomin.org/aoblog/index.php/2014/03/18/in-defense-of-scripture-bart-ehrman-steven-anderson-chris-pinto/ I have commented on two of these men before on their behavior and conspiracy theories: Steven Anderson and […]
Why the Creation-Evolution Debate Matters Says Jonathan Sarfati…
Michael Brown interviewed Jonathan Sarfati on Young Earth Creationism. This is a must listen! Sarfati is an expert in this area and it shows in the interview.

How to — and Not to — Perform “Word” Studies in Greek and Hebrew
I highly recommend reading the following article on doing “word” studies, and how to avoid fallacious “word” studies. I place the word “word” in italics because there is no such thing as a word having a meaning outside of its context. And yet, it is assumed by so many interpreters that words can have meanings […]

Pinto’s Dated and Selective “Research”
Recently, I commented on Chris Pinto’s documentary Tares Among the Wheat where he argues that Codex Sinaiticus is a 19th century forgery. It was an egregiously biased documentary interviewing King James Only individuals and using dated and selective material aimed at a predetermined conclusion. There is one aspect of his documentary that is the most […]
Chris Pinto and His Ignorant, Kooky Conspiracy
I have come across many attempts by individuals who undermine the confidence in God’s Word, especially as it is reflected in translations that are not the King James Version Bible. Almost every time these people cannot read Greek or have not studied the history of textual transmission of the Bible. I have studies in both, […]
