This first part of this series about the minor prophets covers the book of Hosea through the book of Amos. The Prophet Hosea lived during the middle Eighth Century BC and prophesied to the northern kingdom of Israel. He was the prophet when the northern kingdom fell to Assyria in 722 BC. He was probably even killed during that time or taken into exile. The historical record is not clear about that point. But he had prophesied gloom and doom to the northern kingdom over its idol worship, while the false prophets at that time had been painting a rosy picture for the kingdom because of its ...

The sixteenth-century Reformation is a monumental period in church history. The gospel of Jesus Christ, which had been obscured in darkness for centuries by the Roman Catholic Church, was brought to light by a powerful act of God. The core doctrines of the Christian faith that had been lost were rediscovered in God’s Word by Martin Luther and the Reformers. But sadly, the church today has drifted once again from these bedrock truths back to dangerous error and ignorance.

In an age of multiplying Bible versions, shifting footnotes, and growing uncertainty, believers are left asking a pressing question: Can we still trust that we possess the inspired Word of God?

Esaias is the Greek rendering of the Hebrew name, Isaiah, an Old Testament prophet. In the Hebrew Bible, the book of Isaiah is considered one of the major prophetic books, so named because of the size of the books. The books of the major prophets are made up of Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. This is not to say the major prophets are any more important, but only that the books are larger than books written by other prophets, called the minor prophets.

When Science and History Collide, Who Do You Believe? In a quiet chapel in Rome sits a piece of walnut wood carved with three lines of text: Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum—Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews. According to Christian tradition, this is the sign Pontius Pilate ordered nailed above Christ during the crucifixion. The actual titulus. The real thing. There's just one problem. In 2002, physicists at Roma Tre University performed radiocarbon dating on the artifact. Six samples, rigorous methodology, control tests. The results were conclusive: the wood was cut between 980 and 1146 ...

Is the tomb of Jesus Christ really in Israel? Could Jesus have worked in India and Kashmir? In his novel, Jozef Banáš once again undermines the established dogmas and pillars on which the Catholic Church is built. The story reveals the power of faith and also presents an array of facts documenting the activities of Jews, Christians and probably even Jesus Christ in countries that are nowadays seen exclusively through the perspective of oriental religions. At times when beliefs and foundations of the Catholic Church are radically shaken up, this book raises even greater doubts: What if the...

La Epístola de Bernabé es uno de los testimonios más audaces y provocadores del cristianismo de los primeros siglos. Escrita entre los años 70 y 135 d.C., en el contexto posterior a la destrucción del Templo, la obra propone una lectura radicalmente cristológica de las Escrituras: la Ley, los ritos y las instituciones de Israel son presentados como figuras y profecías que apuntan a Jesucristo y a su pueblo. Su tesis central es contundente. El autor sostiene que muchos en Israel malinterpretaron el pacto al aferrarse a una lectura literal de la Ley y confiar en signos externos como si...

What does the Bible say about sexuality? How have traditions of biblical interpretation influenced our understanding of sex and gender? What the Bible Says About Sex answers that and many other questions. Not shy, it analyzes why the Church claimed dominion over marriage, while the female body remained a source of potential evil. It wrestles with how sexuality is used to reinforce notions of honor, and how it can be used to manipulate others. It looks brazenly at the pornographic and the erotic passages of the Bible, and how traditions of interpretation veiled them.
