Grace, Free Will & Salvation: The Parable of Lazarus

Leave a Comment / Scripture / /

“If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone should rise from the dead.”—Luke 16:31 There is something rather alarming about this passage.

Leave a Comment / Scripture, Theology / /

Judas Iscariot is one of the most tragic and mysterious figures in Scripture.

“Let the children be fed first, for it is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”—Mark 7:27 At first glance, these words of Jesus seem unsettling.
