    Heb 4:12-16 NKJV For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

    Is Free Will Really Free?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jul 23, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,056 views

    The subject of Free Will cannot be simply defined. However, it can be described as the ability of a person to determine within themselves the choices they make and the course of action they take.

    Nowhere in the Bible is there any specific mention of 'Free Will,' the divine will of God, or human free will because it never discusses philosophical subjects of any kind. It is apparent in the Bible that God is regarded as acting freely, and that humans are recognized as free agents to do ...read more

    Why would people think that a tzitzit could heal them? People in Jesus’s day were superstitious. Amulets and unique clothes were considered to have divine powers.

Making a whip shows his anger did not impair his judgement. Writing an angry letter is a good way of bringing our feelings out so that we can see them. ...read more

    What is worship? Is it prayer, praise, or preaching? These are elements of worship, but they do not necessarily constitute worship in and of themselves. Worship is an attitude that motivates action, not a mere activity.

    An Introduction to Worship John 4:22-24 Today, I want to lay the groundwork for a series regarding biblical worship. The verses I read are likely familiar to each of us. (Illus. context.) Just as the woman at the well, many today have no concept of biblical worship. I want to spend the next ...read more

    Tuesday of 25th Week in Course 2020 Today’s story from the life of Jesus Christ is from St. Luke’s Gospel, and it looks like proof of alienation of Jesus from His extended family, doesn’t it?
