The Other Unpardonable Sin?

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Aug 25, 2024

Can manifestations of evil attributed to the Holy Spirit be blasphemy of Him?

Since blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is attributing the miracles of Christ as coming from the devil could the converse be true as well? Much of what we see in hyper-Charismatic circles are clearly unbiblical manifestations. People clucking like chickens, barking like dogs, hissing like snakes. ...read more

God Has Done Marvelous Things For Us

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Oct 15, 2024

98:1 says, “Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! For He has done marvelous things; His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.”

We are encouraged to sing a new song to the Lord. Why? God has done marvelous things, and He did them all by His right hand and holy arm, without human help. When we say something is marvelous, we mean it is remarkable, extraordinary, unforgettable, miraculous, etc. Marvelous things call for new ...read more

We, The Church, Are The Two Witnesses (Revelation 11:1-19) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jun 18, 2023

Here, the church joins John in giving clear testimony about Jesus. We have a ministry that combines power, with suffering. Through this combo, the world turns, fears God, and gives Him glory. A no-rapture, academically rigorous reading of Revelation.

This week, we have the privilege of working our way through Revelation 11. This is a rich, complex chapter. It's also a chapter where there's a lot of debate about how to read it. A friend of mine has a study Bible, and his notes told him that the chapter should be read literally. But ...read more

The Sign Of Jonah (Matthew 12:38-42)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 6, 2025

The Pharisees kept clamoring for a sign that Jesus was the Promised Messiah. Jesus in turn saw this request as a waste of time and effort. Nothing He would do or say would ever make them believe.

Beginning in Matthew 12:38-42, we read that the Pharisees won’t leave Jesus alone. Now they wanted to see a “sign from heaven” that would provide visual evidence of His Divinity. Consider what has happened so far in the ministry of the Lord Jesus. These same religious leaders had seen the ...read more
