Jesus’ parable of the wedding banquet illustrates some very important principles of God’s kingdom. He told it to Jewish people of the first century, but he also intended it to be for us today, as it speaks of the breadth and depth of God's grace and the extent of Christ's atoning sacrifice.
What is the New Covenant the Bible speaks of? And what is the difference between it and the Old Covenant? There is much confusion in the Christian church regarding this, so the goal of this article is to provide simple understandable descriptions for the non-scholar.
What is the Sinai Covenant in the Bible? Who was involved and what was its purpose? Is it the same as the Old Covenant that the Christian apostles allude to? And what is the difference between it and the New Covenant? In this article I provide a simple explanation for the non-scholar.
One of the greatest disputes in the Church today is how Christians should relate to the Mosaic laws. Some maintain that none of the Mosaic laws apply to us anymore because we are under the New Covenant. Others say they all apply since the Old Testament is God’s eternal Word and doesn't change.

The world needs to know the truth of the gospel, that the Messiah—Jesus the Savior, the Son of God—has come. And they need to know who God is, what he is like, and what he has done to prove his love for us. But how can they know? By true Christian witness—by word and deed.
God’s creation is awe inspiring and wondrous. He made the universe with incredible power and precision. But how does he rule the universe? By what means does he sustain the physical world he created?

Some people claim that since we can't see God, finding him is impossible, so we shouldn't waste our time seeking him. For them, God is just an interesting discussion topic. But many throughout history have claimed to have sought God and found him. All throughout Scripture God tells us to seek him. Why would God invite us to seek him if it's impossible to find him?
“What is truth?” Pontius Pilate's infamous question to Jesus during his trial seems sarcastic, maybe even cynical. Was he asking to find ultimate truth? No, probably not. But it's a legitimate question—what is truth? Is it real, or just an illusory concept? Are there really absolutes as opposed to just ideas? And what is Christ's kingdom of truth?
