Genesis 3:16

|
“It seems to me that using Genesis 4:7 to interpret Genesis 3:16 is rather sketchy exegesis. It would be similar to saying that God spoke against Baasha (1 Kings 16:12 – the preposition is ‘el) and God spoke unto Moses (Ex. 3:14 – the preposition is the same) therefore, God was against Moses just as […]

The Woman and the Vow

|
“Having heard yet again that Numbers 30 teaches that every woman is under a “covenant head” who has absolute authority over every decision she makes, I decided to correct that and draw your attention to the text itself. Before my meager comments, I would suggest that you read the passage for yourself. I’ll wait. Now, […]

Born of the Flesh

|
“Before Christ came into the world, God promised that the seed of the woman, which was to come through Abraham, Judah, David, and so on – would redeem the world. For this reason, the genealogies were so, so important and the scripture is full of them. God would fulfil his promise, and the genealogies were […]

Sola Fide and Assault

|
“In the past few weeks there have been two streams of stories that have dominated Christian circles. The first is the debate concerning Sola Fide and the second is the #metoo campaign in light of the fall of serial rapist, Harvey Weinstein. As women around the world told their stories of assault, we saw that […]

Dealing with Abusive Men

|
“This is a psalm about evil men. I recognize that there are Christian people who sin against each other. This Psalm isn’t about them. I recognize that there are even unbelievers who sin against Christians – this Psalm isn’t about them, either. This Psalm isn’t about the hurts and pain of living in a cursed […]

Marriage is Not a Cure

|
“One of the most pernicious lies to come out of the “purity” movement is the lie that a young man can cure his ungodly lusts by getting married. The damage that this has done to marriage is astounding. All false doctrine destroys in one way or another. Young women are guilted into marriage, and the […]

Achan and the Gospel

|
“When Joshua conquered Jericho, God gave Israel specific instructions concerning the goods there. Everything was to be killed, burned or put into the treasury of the temple. The story of what happened next is disturbing. The next city to be conquered was Ai. It was a far smaller and less powerful city, and the strategy […]

Give Me a Drink: A Study in Shame

|
“If you haven’t lately, I would suggest that you read John 4 before reading this. I’ve been thinking about this woman lately. I’ve preached on this before, but this is an account that floats around the mind and hits you in the heart. The traditional interpretation is that Jesus sits at the well, confronts the […]

God Hates Divorce Part 2

|
“In my previous post, I showed how the Hebrew of Malachi 2:16 has only one possible ranslation that takes into account the grammar and pronunciation of the Hebrew words: ‘”Because he hates, send away,” says the Lord, the God of Israel, “and violence covers his garment.”’The question now is how that translation fits with the […]

God Hates Divorce?

|
“I have an incessantly curious nature when it comes to God’s word. Why are there so many different translations? Why are there so many interpretations? Why, if God hates divorce, does God divorce his people Israel? Why does God permit divorce in Deuteronomy 24:1-4? God never permits that which he hates. What does it mean?”
