If anyone chooses to do God?s will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. Jesus Christ of Nazareth 9 Evidence in Christian Lives Thus far, we have considered what seems like an overwhelming amount of evidence, the sum of which makes belief […]

A Closer Look at the Laws of Thermodynamics In chapter four of this book, the application of the laws of thermodynamics to the question of the origin of life was introduced. There are some more subtle and technical questions which could arise concerning the use of thermodynamics to investigate whether life could have originated spontaneously. […]
Did Life Just Happen? What about the life that exists on the earth? How can one explain the origin of hundreds of thousands of species of plants, as well as insects, reptiles, birds, mammals, and most complex of all, humans? To the Christian, although all this life is a thing of beauty and wonder, the […]

Molecular Machines: Experimental Support for the Design Inference by Michael J. Behe A Series of Eyes How do we see? In the 19th century the anatomy of the eye was known in great detail and the sophisticated mechanisms it employs to deliver an accurate picture of the outside world astounded everyone who was familiar with […]
THE MIRACLE OF CREATION In this book, we will principally consider the miracles performed by Jesus Christ during his approximately three year ministry on the earth. We will ask questions about the evidence that these miracles actually happened. We will make the effort to consider what is implied on a physical, scientific level […]
Christianity Today, April 2005 Thinking Straighter Why the world’s most famous atheist now believes in God. by James A. Beverley | posted 04/08/2005 09:00 a.m. Antony Flew, one of the world’s leading philosophers, has changed his mind about God. And he has agnostics worried. Some are mystified and others are angry. Typical of many responses […]
How Old is the Earth? How old is the earth? That is a good question. Although I could provide my best estimate based on the scientific evidence, I can honestly say I do not know. One thing which can be said with confidence (as will be shown in this chapter) is that the earth appears […]
EVIDENCE FOR DESIGN IN NATURE The wonders of nature shout out to all those willing to hear that there is a wonderful and powerful creator of it all. Anyone willing to take the time to look and to listen can see evidence for God all around them. Anyone, that is, who is willing […]
DESIGN To those willing to see it that way, the physical universe and the wonders of life surely cry out that there is a creator. Truly, the words of Romans 1:20 are confirmed by the virtually every aspect of the physical world. AFor since the creation of the world God=s invisible qualitiesChis eternal power […]
Checkable Biblical Accuracy In each of the following cases, the Biblical writer had an opportunity to either state the widely held erroneous belief of his day, or to state a factually true description. In each case what was stated was true, demonstrating knowledge beyond the writer’s ability and thus necessarily from God. FACT AS STATED […]
A PRECAUTIONARY TALE ABOUT MISQUOTING SCIENTISTS Charles Darwin wrote, To suppose that the eye, with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd […]
In Luke 2:49 Jesus refers to Temple of Jerusalem as his father’s house. Also, King Solomon built this Temple for God according to His instruction. However, in Acts 17:24 it is taught that God does not live in any human built building. I am having some difficulty to explain this issue can you please help […]
What are God’s reason why He created different insects and even rats and cockroaches? I would not presume to speak for God on why he created rats and cockroaches. I would say that from a biological perspective every creature has its part–even bacteria and other microbes which can at times cause diseases–are essential elements in […]
The reason I’m writing is because of a friendly discussion with friends regarding the well-written novel by Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code. The following has been put to me regarding Jesus Christ and the ancient god, Mithras: 1. Mithra was born of a virgin on December 25th in a cave, and his birth was […]
I was fielding some good questions from co-workers today like — “If all roads don’t lead to God, then how do you know which one is right? I know many people from different religions that seem very happy and fulfilled from their faith. It’s not fair that God will send people to hell if they’re […]
What happen between the Old Testament and New Testament? You should get a copy of my book on Daniel; Daniel, Prophet to the Nations. It is available at www.ipibooks.com There is a lot of material there on intertestamental history. Another source is the book of 1 Maccabbees, which is contained in Roman Catholic Bibles. A […]
What does the Bible says about slavery? Many people have tried to argue that since the Bible endorses slavery, citing certain pauline letters which seem to encourage compliance with slavery, then the Bible must be flawed and therefore not the word of God. I was wondering how you would answer this? Also, if God made […]
Is it a sin for different races to marry? No. There is no conceivable grounds in the Bible to justify any sort of racial prejudice or discrimination, and refusing to marry people of other races would certainly fall into this category. James 2:8,9 lists discrimination as a sin on par with adultery and murder. Although […]
Four Questions follow, with the four answers below: 1)The amino acids are L and D, and in proteins are only L. So in any hypothetical primordial soup, surely there would have been an equal proportion of both. The problem for the materialist is to answer how did the first proteins be of just L a.a […]
I have studied the word Amen. What does it mean and what is the origin of the word? I have read it in the Egyptwebsite that Amen is the ancient name of their god Please Check if it is true. The word amen simply means, so be it or I agree. The etymology of the […]
This morning my roommate was reading Acts and came across Acts one which reads: In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. My roommate […]
Can a disciple of Jesus have a relationship with someone who is not? Jesus certainly had relationships with people who were not his followers. How can we influence the world if we are not willing to have relationships with those who are in the world. I am guessing that you are asking if it is […]
If our righteousness must surpass that of the Pharisee to enter the kingdom, should we be perfect as our Father in heaven is? Are there any exceptions according to Christ? It seems that the scriptures say you must be perfect according to the Gospels, but Paul mentions grace. Yet Christ never mentions the word grace. […]
Would intelligent, reasonable and scientific questions about the Bible’s comparative words cause Christians to struggle? I would say absolutely not!! My experience, having asked many hard questions of the Bible for twenty-five years, is that the Bible will stand up to any kind of question. Those who have the courage to ask the hard questions […]
Explain the concept of death and salvation in Christianity. Wow. You certainly ask a big question. Probably you should ask a theologian rather than me! Well, let me put together the best answer I can anyway, and you can look further if you feel you need to. The Bible actually describes at least two kinds […]
What did God say to Job about water molecules and where do I find it in the Bible? I am going to guess that the passage you are referring to is found in Job 36:27. Here, Elihu says “He draws up the drops of water which distill as rain to the streams; the clouds pour […]
You have said, based on Luke and Hebrews, that if a person continues sinning constantly after they have received the Holy Spirit they will be dammed to hell-what about the prodigal son story of God always forgiving, and always being able to come back to God? Excellent question. Of course, the story of the prodigal […]
How do believers got inspiration from the scriptures? Biblically, inspiration comes from God, not from the scriptures. I will assume you are asking how do believers get encouragement or faith from the scriptures. Your question makes me think of John 8:31 and following in which Jesus said that those who obey him are truly his […]
I have studied the word Amen. What does it mean and what is the origin of the word? I have read it in the Egypt website that Amen is the ancient name of their god Please Check if it is true. The word amen simply means, so be it or I agree. The etymology of […]
What was life like for the women of the Old Testament? You are asking a very broad question, so I am afraid I will have to give a somewhat vague answer. The reason this is a hard question to answer is that the Old Testament covers a time span (not including the first eleven chapters […]
In the story in the gospel of John, Jesus with the adulterous woman was not found in the most reliable sources such as Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus. Why is the story in our Bible’s today if it was not in what is considered the most authoritative documents on biblical manuscripts? It kind of bugs […]
I have really been struggling a lot over this one… I believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, and thus does not contain obvious error and contradictions that would make it untrustworthy. Yet upon reading the gospel accounts of Peter’s denial of Jesus, there seems to be a glaring contradiction here. In […]
I?m reading “Genesis and the Big Bang” by Gerald L Schroeder PhD and was wondering if you noticed that he has a Biblical cumulative age for the earth (post-Adam) of 5763 years. I?ve noticed that the Jewish peoplealso use this age, but when you add up the dates in the Bible, it comes out closer […]
How do we know that Christianity is the right religion to be…Because there are other religions that have a Bible and different gods…. So how do we know Christianity is right? This is an excellent question. I think that Christians often do not take the time to ask this obvious question. This can leave us […]
I know this is impossible to answer, but I have always been told that when you die and go to Heaven, that you will get a new body, and there will be no sorrow, hurts, wants,etc;………so my question is…Do you think that our loved ones that are in Heaven can somehow see us, or hear […]
Regarding tithing, I believe that it was not really a command given in the New Testament though there is still giving in the New Testament. There are disciples who do not give their contribution or offering to God because it is not in their heart, I just want to know how to correct them in […]
In Christian terms, can you give me a explanation of whether people are born homosexual or not? I have a hard time understanding whether there’s a cause to people becoming homosexual or if God made them homosexual from the beginning of their life? I do not think that babies are homosexual. I am not sure […]
1. A woman I have been talking with mentioned, in reference to the claim that Jesus never traveled more than 200miles from where he was born, that there are texts that dispute this claim. She seemed to imply that these texts contained some scandalous reports but I didn’t press the subject since I knew I […]
A woman by the name of Acharya S. tries to support atheism by claiming that Christianity took many ideas from other people that as she claims, are very similar to Christ. In her website article, http://www.truthbeknown.com/origins.htm, she gives specific similarities between Jesus and different people like Mithra, Horus and Hare Krishna. So far, I have […]
