Send us Fan Mail Many of us may not know this, but Genesis 25 tells us that besides Ishmael and Isaac, Abraham had six other sons with his concubine, Keturah. Perhaps even more surprising to some, before he died, Abraham sent those six sons away from him and Isaac, just as God instructed him to do with Ishmael. Why would Abraham send 7 sons away in favor of one? What are the implications for us? B...

Send us Fan Mail Kenny Rogers sang about the "Coward of the County," while Mandisa called us all to be, "Overcomers." But both of these singers missed boat on the biblical meaning of those terms!

Send us Fan Mail We know Scripture is the Word of God, breathed out by the Holy Spirit as He guided the biblical authors as they were writing.

Send us Fan Mail The Book of James has gotten a bad rap by many throughout history; particularly James chapter 2 where James says faith without works is dead and will not save you. Catholics believe this verse proves what they believe that in order to be saved, you need faith and works. Some Protestants believe that James is contradicting what Paul, John, and even Jesus said that salvation is by g...

Send us Fan Mail So many of us have been taught to just witness the Gospel to as many people as you can. But is that all there is to it?

Send us Fan Mail We all probably have heard the famous "love" chapter recited at weddings or seen it hanging on someone's wall. But Paul meant these words as a lot more than advice to cement a marriage. These words are for every believer.

Send us Fan Mail Who is this "man of lawlessness" that Paul says must be revealed before the return of Christ? Many believe he is the same as the 2nd Beast mentioned in Revelation 13 and the Antichrist that's mentioned in several places in Scripture. So who is this? Is it a person? A government? A religious leader? Satan? Is he here on earth now, or is he coming sometime in the futu...

Send us Fan Mail Since the 2nd Century, there has been much debate on who the real 12th Apostle was after Judas Iscariot killed himself. Was it Mathias whom the Apostles prayed about and drew lots to see who Jesus would choose? Or was it Paul who Jesus appeared to on the road to Damascus and specifically called to be an Apostle to the Gentiles? Will the REAL 12th Apostle please stand up! Be sure t...

Send us Fan Mail Six times in the New Testament, Jesus says, "There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when talking about unbelievers who stand under the judgement of God and receive condemnation.

Send us Fan Mail It is so easy for us to look at something Scripture commands or forbids and add our own slant on it.

Send us Fan Mail We've probably all heard the idiom, "The Writing is on the Wall." It's used to mean that something difficult, painful, or even ominous is inevitable.

Send us Fan Mail Ever feel like you're a fraud before God. You go to Him telling Him you want to know His Word and you want Him to show you where you need to repent and change, but deep down, you don't really want to change; you're just pretending that you want to rid yourself of your idols, but secretly, you want to hold onto them. If you've ever felt like this, than Ezekiel c...

Imagine people wanting to kill you because you are trying to get them t...
