    Dios Se Hizo Hombre / God Became a Human Being

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    El evangelio seg煤n San Juan empieza con una declaraci贸n asombrosa que describe el origen del universo y nos da una descripci贸n de Jesucristo: 鈥淓n el principio era el Verbo, y el Verbo era con Dios, y el Verbo era Dios. Este era en el principio con Dios. Todas las cosas por 茅l fueron hechas, y sin 茅l nada de lo que ha sido hecho, fue hecho鈥 (Juan 1:1-3) ...

    Truth is a Person 鈥 Not Simply An Idea

    Sean McDowell — 

    Truth matters. And in our moments of honesty, we all know this. Minimally, we all live as if truth matters. It unavoidable. Truth matters in religious matters too. All religions (including atheism) claim to present a true depiction of reality. And this includes Christianity. But there is a key fact that makes Christianity distinct from other world religions 鈥 Christianity does not present truth merely as an abstract idea, but as a person who can be known.

    With Endless Information, Can We Know Anything At All?

    Sean McDowell — 

    Recently I was speaking to a group of pastors, youth pastors, and other church workers in Idaho. One pastor asked a question that, in my experience, perfectly captures the thinking process of many students today. He said, 鈥淢y younger brother, a Millennial, is constantly on his cell phone. When I try to talk to him about God, he says that people disagree and so we simply can鈥檛 have any confidence at all in our beliefs.鈥 How would you respond? Can we know things or are we lost in a sea of endless information?

    Problem Passages in The Message

    Gary Manning Jr — 

    My friend Ken Berding wrote a recent blog post explaining his concerns about using The Message. As he pointed out, people often treat it as a Bible translation, when it is actually a very loose paraphrase. One of Ken observations is that The Message routinely adds meaning to or subtracts meaning from the original Greek and Hebrew text. While doing detailed work in the Greek New Testament and in several English translations, I have repeatedly found this to be true.

    What are the Best Questions for Meaningful Spiritual Conversations?

    Sean McDowell — 

    I love having conversations with people about spiritual matters. If we treat people with kindness, charity, and show a genuine interest in how they see the world, most people are open to discussing religious matters. In fact, in my experience, many people are eager for such conversations.

    A Few Thoughts on the Hatmaker Position on LGBTQ

    Sean McDowell — 

    For a variety of reasons, I rarely respond publicly to other Christians. But in this case, I feel compelled to do so. Last week, in an effort to be compassionate and loving, popular Christian author Jen Hatmaker came out in support of LGBT relationships, referring to them as 鈥渉oly.鈥 While other Christian influencers have come out in favor of affirming theology, this caught my attention because my wife has personally benefited greatly from her books. In fact, she has even read out loud to me some particularly funny and insightful portions from one of Jen book.

    Dar gracias en todo

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    En los pr贸ximos d铆as terminar谩 la campa帽a electoral para elegir al nuevo presidente de los Estados Unidos. Puede ser que cuando lea estas l铆neas estemos a pocas horas de las elecciones o quiz谩 las votaciones ya hayan terminado. Independientemente del que resulte ganador, los 煤ltimos meses han sido muy pesados y el ambiente social demasiado tenso en todos los sentidos. Expresiones de desaliento, frustraci贸n o hartazgo se convirtieron en el com煤n denominador para muchas personas que ven con alivio el fin de la larga carrera presidencial.

    Why We Should Stop Using The Message

    Kenneth Berding — 

    It time we stopped reading, buying, and recommending The Message. We who hold to a high view of Scripture鈥攖hat the Bible is the very word of God, inspired by God, inerrant in all it affirms鈥攏eed to carefully reconsider our use of The Message. There actually wouldn鈥檛 be a problem at all if The Message were sold and treated as an interpretation of the Bible, or an expansive reading of the Bible. But as long as The Message continues to be marketed and used by preachers and teachers as a Bible translation, it is imperative that we ask the question of whether it is an accurate translation or not. I believe that the answer to this question is: The Message is not an accurate translation of what the original authors wrote.
