Frienenemies Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 9, 2013

Psalm 53 was probably adapted from Psalm 14 after Israel experienced a tremendous military victory over a godless people. It acknowledges that there are some people who reject God so thoroughly that they live as if they will never have to give an answer for their behavior. In the Scriptures, that ...read more

Who Is Your God? Series

Contributed by Robert Fa’atoia-Collins on Jan 20, 2012

There is a great confusion about who God is. Is the Elohim God the same as YHWH?
