My first book is now available to the world! I emphasize first, because I plan to sharpen my skills and write as long as I have words to say. My next book is tentatively titled God’s Free Market: A Biblical Defense of Liberty and Capitalism. It will be a book that makes liberal use of Scripture to define and defend the conservative notion that free market capitalism is the most efficient and effective way for a people to prosper.
Until my second project is complete, I will also move forward with my marketing plans for Freedom to Give. Book signings, radio interviews, and another other means possible are on the radar. Once I have dates and times scheduled, I will create an Itinerary on the website.

When a Oneness advocate on a Facebook group asked for trinitarians to explain how Jesus could be truly God, but be distinct from His Father, I replied with an exegesis of John 17:5. This verse clearly distinguishes the Son from the Father in Person but shows that they are coequal and coeternal. Here is my explanation of the verse: And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. — John 17:5 “O Father” – This is in the vocative case, grammatically signifying that one person is addressing another person. In the Koine period the vocative case was passing from common use and you see nominatives in
The 2016 United States Presidental election is indeed an historic election. We could say that every four years is an historic election. Every election becomes more historic, yet more disappointing, fearful, and evil. Christians endure greater pressure that voting is their solemn, moral duty before God. Dread grips their hearts as the moment of truth in November draws ever nearer. The greater good is to choose yesterday’s Satan over today’s greater Satan. Does the Bible offer us a solution to this madness?
Having answered all Mr. Burch’s “difficult questions,” we will now turn outside the Scriptures to the understanding of the early church to see how they understood what the Scriptures taught. These were the ones who could read the Scriptures in their original languages and access what the apostles taught outside the inspired writings. By observing the history of the early church, I am in no wise appealing to it as an authority on doctrine. Like Mr. Burch I believe in sola scriptura and tota scriptura, and I stand by my original statement that the Scriptures “ooze and bleed” the doctrine of the Trinity. The Scriptures alone are sufficient to prove their own teachings, and only prooftexts without context resulting in
The Incarnation of the One known as the Son of God will always prove to be a scandal to the world because of the mystery of how God in the person of the Son can be fully divine and fully human at the same time. According to the hypostatic union as expressed in the Chalcedonian Creed, Christ joined a human nature to Himself in the Incarnation, resulting in two natures–divine and human. These two natures are neither divided so as to make Christ two persons as the Nestorians argued, nor are they confounded, confused, and fused so as to obscure His human nature as the Eutychians argued. However, many within Christendom today, usually out of ignorance of the theological battles
