Don Carson on the Parable of the Good Samaritan.

April 5, 2009

Don began by explaining the importance of considering context of bible verses by using the phrase “there is no God.” Which of course is not an advocacy of atheism when seen with the preceding phrase “The fool says in his heart” The Good Samaritan is not merely saying that we should be kind to neighbours.

Liam Goligher on Jonah 1

April 5, 2009

Richard Cunningham on The Parable of the Sower – Luke 7

April 4, 2009

Don Carson on The Rich Man and Lazarus – Luke16

April 3, 2009

Is Jesus just saying that there will be a reversal of what happens on earth? Is it “Live well, end up in hell?” There are some contextual clues that suggest this is not the case eg. “Whoever can be trusted with little, can be trusted with much.” “No one can serve two masters” Money easily [...]

April 3, 2009

Well, after sharing here my pastor Tope Koleoso’s talk on sex just recently, regular readers of my blog will think I am obsessed with this subject. Then again, I am a man! Vaughan began by saying that the first command in the Bible to Adam and Eve, loosely translated, was “Go and have sex.” He [...]
