  • “A text without a context is a pretext, usually for error.” Dr. Walter Martin The Challenge At the new church that I am attending, one of the folks in leadership challenged me to examine the phrases “Day of the Lord” and “Great Day of the Lord” in the Bible. Somehow, he thought that such a…

  • Some days I really wonder if the Republicans would rather be in the permanent minority like they are in Sacramento, California.
