Christianity and Judaism are two separate religions with two separate approaches to life. Nevertheless, these two religions have often operated in similar spheres, and Christians and Jews have interacted over the centuries. Tragically, even in more modern times, this interaction often culminated in Christian assaults on Jewish communities and forced conversions to Christianity. But this Christian anti-Judaism did not always exist. Originally, Christianity shared its history with Judaism. The first Christians were all Jews. The first Christians used the Jewish Scriptures as their sacred text...

One of these was Titus, who accompanied Paul and Barnabas with their gift for famine relief to Jerusalem and then had a meeting with Peter, James and John.

We love to read about the good guys in the Bible; those spiritual giants who inspire us to give faithful obedience lives of service to our loving God and Creator. We can learn so much from their examples. But there are plenty of bad guys on the pages of the Bible that I believe can offer powerful lessons of what not to be and whose example not to follow. Their examples remind us that we can learn lessons to apply to our life, not just from the good guys but from the bad guys as well. It should come as no surprise to us that while it is important to learn what to do, it is equally important ...

A significant tension exists between the modern scientific picture of the universe and the Biblical one. On the standard scientific picture, the universe started in a ‘Big Bang’ ‒ the explosion of a speck of highly concentrated matter 14 billion years ago. According to the Bible, God created the universe in six days about ten thousand years ago. On the scientific picture, the universe has evolved and continues to develop under the operation of fixed laws and chance. According to the Bible, God acts in the universe in providence and judgment, human beings are responsible for their ...
