Is our English Bible inerrant? 16:18

πριν 4 μέρες16:18

16:18

Q: My Bible says that John 7:53 - 8:11 isn't found in the earliest manuscripts, so why are we including this in the Bible that we say is the inerrant word of God? Takeaways Inerrancy is a complex issue, focusing on original autographs. Manuscript evidence is abundant but requires careful analysis. Textual criticism helps us understand variations in biblical texts. The ending of Mark and the story of the adulterous woman are key examples. Historical accuracy of certain passages can still hold value. Translation and tradition play crucial roles in understanding scripture. The Bible's reliability is not diminished by textual criticism. Faith and critical thinking are essential in biblical study. Understanding the context of scripture enhances its interpretation.

Which translation is most accurate and trustworthy? 18:27

πριν 11 μέρες18:27

18:27

Q: Hi Dr. Easley! I just don’t know which Bible translations to trust. I know reading your Bible is a vital part of having a relationship with God, but I don’t know if the version I have been reading is the most accurate, and I worry that I’ve been taking verses out of context my whole life. Takeaways Translations vary, but the core message remains intact. Understanding vocabulary is crucial for accurate interpretation. Bible study methodology is essential for deeper understanding. Language issues arise from the complexity of translations. Different translations serve different audiences and purposes. Context is key to understanding the meaning of scripture. Engaging with scripture is a lifelong journey of learning. Theological understanding requires more than just vocabulary definitions.

Satan was in the garden. How can that be perfect? Call or text us your question at 615-281-9694 or email at question@michaelincontext.com.…

God's Love and Wrath 11:52

Q: When God so loved the world, why would He take the offering of His Son on earth with such a horrific suffering and death? I understand it is the ultimate to sacrifice the offering of something so valuable to show that love, but still it is conflicting.

The Bible never uses the word "discipleship"?! 17:43

πριν 5 weeks17:43

17:43

Q: A friend of mine and I were talking about discipleship. She said that the scripture never uses the word. The only mention is as a noun: disciples. She said that churches don’t really need to disciple Christians because we can read the Bible and God will guide us on our own. Can you talk about this? My opinion is that new Christians SHOULD be discipled. Would love your thoughts & if there is any scriptural basis.

Is Pope Francis Correct: "God is God For Everyone" ? 12:21

πριν 9 weeks12:21

12:21

Dr. E responds to a recent comment made by Pope Francis. On Sept 13 Pope Francis to students in Singapore at an interreligious meeting at Singapore's Catholic Junior College said, "God is God for all, and if God is God for all," he said, "then we are all sons and daughters of God. All religions are paths to reach God," said Pope Francis. "They are—to make a comparison—like different languages, different dialects, to get there. But God is God for everyone."

What Does it Mean For Jesus to be Lord of Your Life? 14:25

Full Question: My name is Samuel and I’m taking an evangelism class. One of our assignments was to role-play a believer and unbeliever with someone. I was playing the believer, and the lady playing the unbeliever asked me, ‘What does it mean that Jesus is the Lord of your life?’ I didn’t know how to explain that without using ‘Christianese’ like ‘get saved’ How should I answer that, and what are some other questions from unbelievers that Christians might struggle with?
