The Pesident catches up to him, and says, "Excuse me sir. Are you Moses?" the man keeps walking. The president follows him. "Excuse me sir. Are you Moses. The man keeps on walking. The president runs ahead of the man and stops him, repeating himself once more. "Excuse me sir.

The Light Of The World!

By Ann Spangler

According to Jewish tradition, one of the names for the Messiah is "Light." How fitting, then, that Jesus is called the "Light of the world." John's Gospel portrays Jesus as the light that vanquishes the darkness brought on by sin — a darkness that ends in death. Christ has opened the eyes of a sin-darkened world to the truth of the gospel. We who believe in him have moved from darkness to light, from death to life. When we pray to Jesus as the Light of the world, let us remember that we are calling on the One who was so determined to draw us into his light that he spent nine months in the darkness of his mother's womb in order to become one of us. Let us ask Jesus, our Light, to make us shine with his reflected glory.

Archaeological Evidence for Sodom: Recent Findings Shed Light on Discoveries of ‘Biblical Proportions’

ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO (ANS) -- There are few events in a person’s life where one can say that they have changed a society’s understanding of history. For Dr. Steven Collins of Trinity Southwest University in Albuquerque, this just may be the case.

 

Dr. Steven Collins monitoring the dig

Upon his recent return from the Tall el-Hammam dig in Jordan, Dr. Collins was full of fascinating facts and possible historic findings.

But before I get into his recent finds, allow me to review what occurred during last year’s dig.

In my article “Sodom Found?” I wrote, “According to Collins, ‘The traditional "Southern Theory" site of Sodom does not have the geographical parallels described in the [biblical] text. Namely: 1. One can see the whole area from the hills above Jericho (Bethel/Ai), 2. It must be a well-watered place (described "like Egypt"), 3. It has a river running through it (the Jordan), and 4. It must follow the travel route of Lot" (who went to the other side of the Jordan, eastward, away from Jericho.)’”

Oh Ye Of Many Faith's ???

 What does the word "faith"mean in Scripture?  In order to answer this we must ask ourselves,  what does the author mean?  How is he applying this word?  And what is the message he wants his readers to receive from what he has said?  By doing this, we are approaching Scripture in what scholars call "Thematic Hermeneutics"

How Do You Spell ROCK?

By Rev Deb                                                                                                            11/14/11  

 

The word of God shows basically three different types or foreshadows.

1. the direct reference, 2. the implied, and 3. the interpreted type..”

In a way, types are a word studies.  Each object being studied serves as a metaphor to describe how the type should be understood.   

For example if we were to take the word ROCK in the bible it should first be looked at through the scope of a direct type.  A direct type will clearly reveal its intended meaning, such as Matthew 7:24.
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 

Here, Christ is saying that building our faith on Him is like building a house on a rock, both have strong foundations. Christ has the characteristic of strength that a rock has. He also implies that He is our house, the place where we will be safe. This is an example of a direct type.
