When the Bible Seems Silent

In this article, we explore the sufficiency and supremacy of the Bible in guiding Christians through life’s challenges. Although Scripture may not explicitly address every modern issue, we can apply biblical principles to make godly decisions.

Baptism: Definition

I thought I would try to do something that most folks don’t. That is, to discover what baptism is before talking about who should be baptized, who should be doing the baptizing, and how it should be done. Sometimes, looking a word up in the dictionary is a good way to begin one of these […]
