We CAN KNOW The Truth, And The Truth Will Set Us Free! — Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: October, 2019)

While teaching in the temple, Jesus famously said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12, ESV).

In our post-modernistic culture which shies away from the notion of absolute right and wrong, many do not embrace the idea that one can hold to a position which is authoritatively right and thus make all contrary positions authoritatively wrong. As with most other cultural trends, this relativism has seeped into the minds of many in… Read More Why Emphasizing Scriptural Doctrine Is Right — Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: January/February, 2018)

Is The Bible The Only Way God Communicates With Man? — Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: November/December, 2017)

We call the Bible the Word of God, and so it is (2 Tim. 3:16-17).  Yet if a sincere yet unknowledgeable soul asked you to explain why you believe the Bible is from God, or why you believe it is the only way God communicates with man today, would you be able to explain it… Read More Is The Bible The Only Way God Communicates With Man? — Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: November/December, 2017)

The Psalm Which Holds The Bible In High Regard — Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: July/August, 2017)

The Challenge To Teach The Truth – Dave Wood

The Proverbs writer once challenged young men to, “Buy the truth and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding” (Prov. 23:23). One might wonder why Solomon needed to challenge any young Israelite to appreciate the truth.  Is it possible that Israel suffered from the very issues that plague Christians today?  Namely, there will… Read More The Challenge To Teach The Truth – Dave Wood
