It is difficult to escape the feeling that our world is becoming more divided by the day. For example, we are hearing more about political identity. While it has been quite customary to identify with some political party in terms of general policy, the term has now developed a sharper edge. Amy Chua writing in The Guardian newspaper notes: “When groups feel threatened, they retreat into Tribalism. When groups feel mistreated and disrespected, they close ranks and become more insular, more … [Read more...] about Expressions of Tribalism

The Church Across the Ages
A Prophetic Journey Through Church Eras God's Church has walked a long and often difficult path for nearly two millennia. Despite enduring external persecution and internal division, it has never ceased to exist. It endures—sometimes visibly organized, often scattered—through the lives of individuals and communities determined to uphold God’s truth. This enduring legacy is often viewed through the lens of Revelation 2 and 3, where Jesus Christ addresses seven churches in Asia Minor. While … [Read more...] about The Church Across the Ages
Is God Truly Unknowable?
For centuries, mainstream Christianity has taught that the Trinity is a divine mystery—something beyond human comprehension. Many theologians insist that we “cannot fully understand the nature of God.” But does this idea align with Scripture? Jesus Himself said, “He who has seen Me has seen the Father” (John 14:9).

Many … [Read more...] about Is God Truly Unknowable?
The Passover Effect
The world is thrashing around in a leaderless confusion, leaving masses of people to lead meaningless lives. The world doesn’t understand the purpose for our being on this planet.

Surrendering the “Old Man”
God has given humanity a purpose, and He has provided us insight and a roadmap on how to accomplish His purpose for each of us. Simply put, we are to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29). Conformity is the act of matching attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, in this case, to God the Father and Jesus Christ. You are to “…put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 … [Read more...] about Surrendering the “Old Man”
Where is AI Leading Us?
Artificial Intelligence is advancing at an exponential pace. AI’s processing power and programming algorithms are advancing incredibly rapidly and largely out of the sight of the general population. The limitations of power intensive hardware are being solved faster than alternative power sources can be developed. And AI is exhausting the supply of internet text used by programmers to teach it and is now training itself. In some functions, it is already better than human beings, and soon it … [Read more...] about Where is AI Leading Us?
