Many people have interpreted Jesus’ interaction with the woman at the well as a model for personal evangelism for Christians. That’s one way of looking at it, I guess. Perhaps more significantly, however, we can look at this episode to see how we are like the woman, and how Jesus is our great Pursue ...

This current blog is Part 2, looking at the issue Biblically and theologically. Let me preface my blog with this: John Piper is one of my favo ...

Yesterday I was asked about the value of Creeds like those of Nicaea. My interlocutor was insistent, “What if I love Jesus? What is the point of a Creed? Doesn’t it get in the way of my love for the Lord?” The problem with this idea is that even in daily life it is easy to love the “wrong” person. T ...

In Genesis 2:24 the narrator declares that a man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife and they become one flesh. There is a profound act of letting go required before something new and fruitful is made possible. The leaving and cleaving one becomes one flesh with his wife. Like anyone ...

This year I was asked to be the faculty advisor to BASA (the Biola Asian Students’ Association). It may seem logical because I am Asian American and I grew up in an Asian American church. But in some ways, this is a return to a past I thought I had left behind. In no way am I saying that I deny my A ...

Okay, so yesterday’s post did not take the quickest road to application. I applied it to new Christians, people who have come from the womb recently, and pointed out that we should not look down on our younger siblings, but should rather praise God for their new faith, whether they be former Anti-th ...

First posted on Pastoral Musings. Many years ago one of the fundamentals of the faith that the historic fundamentalists contended for was that Christ truly performed miracles. Sometime in the future I shall deal with this issue more in depth, the Lord willing. At this point I would simply like to po ...

DURING THE WEEKEND I was able to catch up some podcast that I don’t get a chance to listen to during the week. Podcast is great way for “sound” theologians, Bible scholars and teachers to get their messages out to us common Christian Folks. Martin Luther had only a printing press. Can you image what ...

Even though I do not believe a Christian can be possessed/invaded by a demon, I do understand how a well-meaning Christian who has had certain personal experiences with demoniacs may come to a different conclusion. These personal experiences may lead them to interpret the cases of Saul and the bent ...
