Recall the days of your childhood when the world seemed simple, and the consequences of our actions were plate-breaking or wall-scribbling at worst. Picture yourself in those moments when, upon committing a misdeed, the anticipation of your parents' disapproval led you to hastily seek refuge in the sanctuary of your...
Theologians often discuss the condition of man in the Garden of Eden before the fall. God is all-knowing, so why did He place the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden if He foreknew that man would eat of it? It would seem that God had a purpose for this primitive condition.
History reminds us of the past, defines us in the present, and prepares us for the future. In Scripture, we have something more, something we might call holy history.

“The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate”” (Genesis 3:12). Yesterday we read where Adam and Eve were naked in front of each other and they wer…

It’s all about God as the sovereign source of everything, the Heavenly Father of everyone, and of his astounding love in faithfully pursuing his human family to rescue us through the family of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Israel).
How do you decide what you believe? Is it a gut feeling, what sits right with you or a witness of the Spirit? Do you trust your friends, believing as they do? Do you follow a tradition developed ov…
Adam’s fall in the Garden of Eden is widely regarded as fiction these days. Even professing Christians capitulate to the evolutionary zeitgeist, redefining the early chapters of Genesis as nothing more than metaphor. But the empirical proof of mankind’s fall into sin is evident all around us. We don’t have to teach our children how
In a previous post, I argued that Adam and Eve's historical existence is biblically affirmed and theologically necessary—but what about the evidence? Has science disproved their existence? Is the Genesis account just a quaint fairy tale invented by ancient Jews who were trying to figure out where they came from?...

When Adam sinned, he caused physical death on all his posterity Both Adam and Eve transgressed God’s law, but their sins were still a bit different from each other. Eve was deceived by the s…

I love Italian coffee! It is dark and thick and smooth, like used motor oil, but goes down like a Guiness Stout. They serve it with steamed milk on the side, and I drank mine with a croissant. We d…
