Can Pre-Incarnate Jesus Be Found in the Old Testament?
It feels like wishful thinking to imagine Jesus being physically present in the Old Testament. In fact, some would say that to read Jesus into the Old Testament in such a way is to abuse the Bible. But if that’s true, then it seems like the New Testament writers themselves abused the Old Testament, because…

The Wisdom of God
Paul’s theological cornerstone was to know nothing more than Christ crucified. This was not something he only had to remind himself of, but the Corinthian church as well; for they were trying to blend worldly wisdom into Christianity and suppress the message of the cross. In today’s podcast, Myisha and I tag-team preach our way…

Does God Allow Bad Things to Happen?
Throughout the years I’ve heard people say that God “allows” bad things to happen to us—which is often the theological conclusion that people come to when they deal with the question of, “Why do bad things happen if God is all powerful?” This has always been a complicated question for Christians to work with, but…

God’s Extravagant Love
God is crazy about you. He is the most extravagant of pursuers out there. He knows every detail about you because he knit you together in your mother’s womb (Ps 139:13). He is so meticulous about you that he has even counted how many hairs there are on your head (Mt 10:30)! He cares about…

Not only did Jesus pray that we’d all be one, but Paul called the Corinthians out when they began to identify themselves too much with church leaders rather than with Christ. It is clear from the Scriptures that there was a struggle to keep the church unified…

When it comes to sins we commit en masse as Christians, pride is towards the top. Christians have painted an image of themselves as scientifically ignorant. We refuse to listen to anything that can’t be proved with our Bibles and we hold the observations of an ancient culture trying best to understand their surroundings as…

The Already But Not Yet
The Gospel of Mark has been forcing me to preach on a lot of eschatology at church lately. Today we took a look what theologians call, “the already but not yet”—an understanding of our currently place in spiritual history based on a tension we find all throughout the Scriptures. A Biblical Theology of the New Testament …

Resurrection: The Final Afterlife
The American church has more or less communicated this idea that when we die, we go off to Heaven to be with God. While this is true, the Bible communicates this to be more or less an intermediate state on the destination to which we are headed: a new Heaven and a new Earth with…

Party Jesus
It seems that the only image of Jesus that got pierced into our heads is of him hanging on the cross. Therefore, whenever we think of him we’re left in the dark moment of his death, rather than in the joy of his resurrection and life. That being said let me tell you a few…
