This teaching is primarily about the biblical subject of adoption, but I’ve been perplexed (and sometimes troubled) for many, many years about a teaching among many of God’s children called “The Manifested Sons.” God has not prompted me to teach anything about that subject and adoption until just recently.

The Lord’s Prayer…So-Called
The Lord’s Prayer—so-called—is not exclusively Jesus’ prayer; rather it is a means of prayer, a prayer outline that Jesus taught his disciples upon their request. In fact, it seems that the only time the disciples may have asked Jesus to specifically teach them anything was when they asked Him to teach them how to pray Continue reading “The Lord’s Prayer…So-Called”
Science(s) And The Bible
The following is a brief alphabetical listing I have compiled about various fields of studies, endeavors, pursuits, and strategies used in determining the Bible’s origins, authenticity, trustworthiness, reliability, veracity, translations, interpretations, and understanding.

Baptism(s)
When most people who are familiar with the Bible or Christianity hear or read the words “baptize” or “baptism,” they automatically think of being baptized in water as some sort of initiation rite into the Christian faith.

We’ll get to those matters in a few moments. Yes, the term “born again” is a biblical term. For those of you whoContinue reading “Born Again: What Does It Mean?”
God: Relationship or Religion?
I became a follower of Jesus many years ago by inviting Him to take up permanent residence in my life in his “unbodied form” of Holy Spirit. I knew at the time that I was establishing a vital relationship with the Living God, not “getting religion.” It might be more properly stated that God hadContinue reading “God: Relationship or Religion?”
