Universalizing Words and the Strongs

STRONGS CONCORDANCE - Universalizing Words
PROPHECY
Obviously, the current subject in my circle is about prophets and prophesying. A friend made a post on Facebook asking why people can not tell the difference between the gift of prophecy and prophesying. People commented and noticed some kind of difference in prophesying in some texts versus other texts. So, this presented a grand opportunity to talk about word universalizing and the Strongs Concordance. Read More…

Four Steps of Bible Study

HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE
THE FOUR STEPS
I'm sure most everyone can relate to starting a new job at a new company. Just think about that time. Your eyes are kinda bugged out looking around and observing all the new things. This place is totally different from your last job. You see things that your previous job didn't have. People at this company are doing things that people didn't do at the last company. So, you do your best to go through and observe everything happening. Read More…

HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE
PRESUPPOSITIONS
I'm about to cover with you the hardest part of Bible study, especially if you have any time in the church or around church people.
I was raised across a spectrum of denominations, from Nazarene, Baptist, Assembly of God, Pentecostal Holiness, and non-denominational. Each denomination was said to read the same Bible but each one differed greatly in their understanding of the Bible. I believe the root cause is not understanding how to study the Bible. Read More…

LOOK AT THE CONTEXT - The surrounding text
JESUS LEAVES THE NINETY-NINE
Matthew 18:12-14 (NKJV) “What do you think?

Argument of Theology

HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE
ARGUMENT OF THEOLOGY
It's often said to avoid conversation about politics and religion. The reason this is said is that either subject will bring up hard feelings, bickering, fighting, name-calling, and the likes. This might be said of the world but should not be said of the church. Unfortunately, it is said and it's more common than that of love.
The issue of argument over theology comes down to a root called pride. Everyone wants to believe they believe the truth and no one wants to admit they can be wrong.
Let's look at two honest and brutal truths about these facts.
