The New Testament authors did not shy away from the spiritual realm. I think in today's culture, we dismiss the spiritual as "not scientific". Big mistake.

Sometimes you have to put aside your preconceived notions of reality and take the Bible quite literally. Often, when you do that, the picture of what is going on, especially with regards to the Old Testament can make a lot more sense. We live in a world where if we can't see, feel, touch, taste or smell it... it doesn't exist. We live in a world that must be explainable by science. This might actually be a obstacle to your faith, I know it was mine! But the more I dig in, the more faith I have ...

Understanding the divergent nature of sin, the long term effects and even some geographical theology.

Prayers To God Do Not Have To Be Complicated or Deep... This is the story of Jabez. Simple and effective prayer comes from the heart.

This is a deeper conversation warning about the allure of buying into prophecy and numerology. Be descerning, be critical, and skeptical.

This is interesting, fascinating and not necessarily real... BUT we take three YouTube videos and dissect them to help us understand how biblical numerology can be used for interpretation and prophecy. In my own personal experience with numerologist, it always seems like the conclusion guides the interpretation rather than blindly finding a conclusion based on what the numbers say. I've always entertained numerology with a degree of skepticism AND fascination. When you combine something as preci...

Numbers are all over the Bible and their use is not random. When you start paying attention, you see their meaning everywhere and perhaps even prophecy. Episode Link: https://www.rabbitholesandmeditations.com/the-not-so-secret-meaning-of-numbers

The Scapegoat has such significance. We often think of the Scapegoat in a negative way... someone using and excuse to get away with something. But that's not what the scapegoat was. Dig into this deep dive.

Can Quantum Physics help explain God. Let’s explore some of the connections between quantum science and scripture.

This just stopped me and made me think. This message was in one of those short takes on YouTube that was taken from Instagram. I captured the content on Instagram to create this short quick-byte. You can see the original Instagram posts here, follow Mike Donehey, and listen to his music. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-_B8eZpi0L/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== https://www.instagram.com/reel/C_-7UTEpZiR/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== YouTube Channel: htt...

Understanding Cain and Abel starts with understanding the motivations to glorify God. Upon first reading, one is often puzzled as to why God rejects Cain's offering. Listen to this deep dive. Genesis 3:15 - And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers... Genesis 4:3-5 - In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD. And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. T...

I realized that many have not read or even care to read Ayn Rand and her book "The Fountainhead". I have loved this book but as I have grown in my own faith, I began to question the basic premise of Ayn Rand's view of life and philosophy and wondered if a Howard Roark (her main character) could have existed as essentially the same person but one how believed in God. The climax of that novel is a courtroom scene where Howard Roark is defending his act of blowing up an apartment complex that he cr...

For most of my adult life, I was an athiest. Ayn Rand was one of my heroes. Sometimes an Athiest will come very close to God but not quite get there. In this article, we take Ayn Rand's speech by Howard Roark in The Fountainhead and rewrite it as if Ayn Rand's character was a Christian. With all the respect due to Ayn Rand as an incredible thinker and author, the rewritten version gives Howard Roark more depth as a person of God, and might have even help define his motivations better within the ...

Free Will and God. Your choices have eternal consequences... but they are your choices. Choose Wisely : )

The creation story of Genesis, specifically the separation of light from darkness on the first day, is presented as a foundational moment in the universe, introducing order, rhythm, and the concept of time itself.

The Bible is not meant to be read passively like a novel. It requires careful study, reflection, and a willingness to grapple with complex ideas. Interpretations and Translations: The Bible has been translated and interpreted in numerous ways. Understanding the nuances of different translations is crucial for forming your own understanding. The Role of Commentary: Commentary can be helpful, but it's important to remember that it's not scripture itself. Use commentary as a tool for underst...

You are living your life as an interactive novel with God as the author and humans as the characters, highlighting the balance between God's sovereignty and human free will. Your journey is different from everyone else's. Each of us has a story. Let's explore why God wants to be part of that journey. Isaiah 46.10 - I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’ Deuteronomy 30:19 - This ...
