		<description><![CDATA[I have heard some really strange ideas on this topic&#8230;ranging from uncontrollable temper through fleshly desires and on to profound mental depression&#8230;any of which would be more than I would welcome. However, the inspired Scriptures do not exactly pinpoint what was Paul&#8217;s thorn in the flesh. So, I decided to examine the context and some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There seems to be a lot of unnecessary confusion about the topic of baptism. I am addressing several of those on this blog. This particular article will deal with the above question. Is there a particular &#8220;formula&#8221; given in the Bible that must be used when one is baptized? Matthew records Jesus as telling the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, why?  Why do some churches insist that baptism is, and can only be, immersion?  Why is sprinkling or pouring not just as good?  After all, they are a lot more convenient, and&#8230;Woah!  Are we trying to please ourselves, or are we trying to please God?  If we choose to please ourselves, then we are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently heard a Christian say, &#8220;I cannot judge that. It is a sin for a Christian to judge anything.&#8221; You know, I went home and really thought about that. It sort of bothered me, yet I, too, remember Matthew 7:1. Did Jesus mean that we are never to judge anything wrong? If so, a [...]]]></description>

Hebrew This word first applied to Abraham and his family when they came to Canaan.  The origin of the word itself is unknown.  Some say it is from Eber, who was an ancestor of Abraham (Genesis 10:21;  Numbers 24:24).  Other authorities [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not faith in Jesus. The faith of Jesus. Did Jesus have faith? Did He need faith? How does the Spirit describe faith? Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1) That&#8217;s one of those types of statements that to me is like describing grace as &#8220;unmerited [...]]]></description>
