Free will and determinism; God's sovereignty and human choice; election, predestination, foreknowledge, and more. Debates as to how these interplay with each other have surrounded the Church for hundreds of years. Countless books have been written, social media posts have been shared, debates have been had, yet many say that there is still no clear … Continue reading An Analysis of the Free Will & Determinism Debate
2020: A Year of Vision
Not to sound cliche, but 2019 has been a roller coaster of a year for me if there ever was one. I don’t say that lightly, either. I sincerely mean it from the bottom of my heart. It has been a year of God blessing me and giving me things at one point, and then … Continue reading 2020: A Year of Vision
Seeing the Trinity at Work in Salvation
There are many passages in the New Testament referring to how each part of the Trinity, God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, all have a role in the salvation of believers. But passages in which all three persons of the Trinity are mentioned and described can be hard to find sometimes. As I was … Continue reading Seeing the Trinity at Work in Salvation
No, Jesus Was Not a Socialist
By now, you've probably heard from some on the progressive side of Christianity that Jesus was a socialist. Today, I'll be going through some of their main arguments and offering rebuttals as to why their reasoning is wrong. 1. "Capitalism is worshipping the god of money." Jesus says in Matthew 6:24 that, "No one can … Continue reading No, Jesus Was Not a Socialist
The Fear of Falling Apart
It goes without saying that this past weekend was devastating for our country. At least 31 people were gunned down by evil pieces of human debris in Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas. While this should have resulted in a time of mourning and for everyone with a conscience to come together in unity against … Continue reading The Fear of Falling Apart
Pride Before the Fall
"Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." (Proverbs 16:18) Summer is my favorite season of the year. There are so many activities to do outdoors such as canoeing, hiking, basketball, swimming, etc. The NBA finals are currently happening which is another highlight of the summer, and I hope that every one of … Continue reading Pride Before the Fall
One Way or Multiple Ways?
This is a subject I have been wanting to take on for about a month or so now since it had been brought up during one of the episodes of Matt Walsh's podcast. The question is framed like this: "If Hell is the absence of love and love cannot exist in Hell, does anyone with … Continue reading One Way or Multiple Ways?
A Response to Heresy
It's great to be back! I've hardly posted in months because this past semester had been the busiest time of my life until I just finished up yesterday. It feels great to be halfway done with my collegiate career! *cue Bon Jovi music* I hope to get back to a somewhat regular posting schedule because … Continue reading A Response to Heresy
Born of God
It's been three months since I've posted. No, I didn't lose interest in writing or even worse, fall off the face of the earth. It's been the busiest semester of my college career for me and I simply haven't been able to get around to writing. And I miss it. I wish I could have … Continue reading Born of God
The Mob Strikes Again
Last week, actor and comedian Kevin Hart was forced to step down from hosting the Oscars, another one of the awards shows that so many Americans have grown to hate because of all the political virtue signaling and social justice warrioring (yes, I just made that word up) that goes on instead of actually giving … Continue reading The Mob Strikes Again
