    Which is more reliable, eyewitness testimony including genealogies or wildly unreliable chronometric dating methods? If ancient patriarchs walked with God, can we walk and talk with God too?

    Was God grieved by the human evils of Noah’s day? Is our world getting just as bad? As the giver of life, does God have the right to take it away? Let’s discuss this in Genesis 6.

     | 564 views

    Is there geological evidence for a flood? Let's discuss this in Genesis 7.

    Geological evidence for a worldwide flood is ubiquitous. There are sea fossils on the highest mountains. Complete fossils only exist when there is rapid burial.

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 12, 2024
     | 657 views

    DNA evidence seems to confirm our descent from Noah's three sons and the historic time of the flood. Let's discuss this in Genesis 8.

    Is there evidence for our descent from Noah’s three sons and their wives? Mitochondrial DNA (female) seems to show three main branches, inline with what we would expect from the three wives of Noah’s sons. Recent studies of the number of mutations in Y-chromosome DNA sequence (male) indicate only ...read more

    Does the rainbow play into our lives today? Let's discuss this in Genesis 9.

    We each bear the consequences of our own sins, yet pass on bad habits and genetic corruption. Our children also sin and each generation suffers more as the sins of society accumulate.

    Table Of Nations (Genesis 10)

     | 488 views

    Is discounting the world history in the ancient document, we call the Bible, dishonest? Let's discuss the history of nations from Genesis 10.

    The history of the world takes into account many ancient documents. Is discounting the history recorded in the world’s most popular document, the Bible, rather dishonest? Who were Japheth’s descendants? It is possible that the name Japheth was corrupted by the Romans to Jupiter. Many ancient ...read more

    What are the four places where the seed of the word is broadcast? Why did Jesus speak in parables to outsiders? Is light to be hidden under a basket? How is God’s kingdom like harvesting?

    Does Pentecost begin to reverse the curse of Babel? Let's discuss this in Genesis 11.

    An Honest History (Genesis 12)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 17, 2024
     | 438 views

    Nations often give a dishonest history, leaving out the bad. Does biblical history give an honest view of patriarchs, prophets, and apostles? Let's look at Genesis 12.

    Nations often whitewash their history leaving out the bad. Does frank honesty about the strengths and weaknesses of patriarchs, prophets and apostles help us trust the Bible as true history? Let’s discuss this in Genesis 12. How did Abram become Abraham, father of the faithful? Does the letter to ...read more

    Abram & Lot Separate (Genesis 13)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 19, 2024
     | 560 views

    As Abram left his home, have we left the world, and do we look for a heavenly city? Let's discuss this in Genesis 13.

    God does not demand that everyone physically leave their country, but do Christians become spiritual citizens of a heavenly country? Are we therefore in the world but not of the world (John 17:14-15)? Let’s discuss this in Genesis 13. What did Abram do as he left Egypt for the promised ...read more

    Who was the mysterious person that Abraham gave a tithe to? Let's discuss this in Genesis 14.

    In the midst of war weariness, Abram paid tribute to a mysterious priest, who is described as without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life.

    Do people of faith occasionally make very bad decisions? Let's discuss Genesis 16.

    Though he was righteous by faith, did Abram still make the occasional horrible decision? Is Christian history also filled with both virtuous and shameful choices?

    What can we learn from various healings about faith? Let's look at Mark 5.

    Did Jesus heal an insane man of demon possession who had not asked for it? Was a woman healed because of her faith? Did Jesus heal a man’s daughter despite other people’s lack of faith? Do we have faith? Let’s discuss this in Mark 5. On the other side of the lake, who came out to meet Jesus? So ...read more

     | 520 views

    How does the Abrahamic covenant relate to the Christian? Let's discuss Genesis 17.

    Is the promise to Abraham fully realized in Abraham’s descendant, Jesus and the Good News for all nations? Is true circumcision of the heart and not just the flesh?
