Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live may be one of the most frequently quoted verses against the budding community of a group that calls themselves Christian witches. But what if there was more to the verse than meets the eye? In the age of deconstruction and new methods of discovering one’s personal spirituality, Christians dissatisfied with the current state of their religion are looking to make a change, whether from within or without the church. In the words of Jurgen Moltmann in his work, The Crucified God, these believers face a crisis of identity and relevance, struggling to ...

Amazing New Testament Women What is the significance of the women mentioned in the New Testament? Many of the stories we read in the Bible, we read about the women that God used to do the work he needed done. Most of the stories are small parts that if we skip over, we don't get the real meaning of why the stories are in the Bible. The fact that these women are mentioned in the Bible should make us wonder why, and we should know that they are not in the Bible accidentally. God wanted us to read about them, and to know that they were special people in history, and important to know who they ...

Are you a Christian wondering why Christians can't do the miracles of Jesus? Are you a witch wondering why Christians condemn people of other faiths? Or are you a Christian Witch, who is unsure if crystals, herbs, or spells are acceptable to use as a Christian? Are you afraid because you believe the Bible says you're going to Hell? I wrote this book after realizing that neither Christians nor witches were walking in the power that God had for them.

Read David’s inaugural song of thanksgiving at the Tabernacle of David again (1 Chronicles 16). That describes someone who “fears and loves to think about God” (Malachi 3:16-18). These people in Malachi who openly declare their love and appreciation for God learned the lessons of the Tabernacle of David while most long forgot its meaning and practice.’ What David did, especially since the dedication of the Tabernacle of David was proceeded by burnt and peace offerings, showed God’s declaration of peace with those “who fear and love to think about Me” (Malachi 3:16-18). It was ...

What follows is not a translation in the ordinary sense of the word. It’s more like a paraphrase. Rather than worry over the letter of the text, the goal has been to illuminate the large scale patterns that structure it. The King James Version, for instance, renders Paul’s letter with uncanny beauty but is opaque as an argument. Modern translations tend to have the same problem. Their overriding concern is with the letter of the text, not with its logic. As a result, Paul’s forest is always getting sacrificed for the sake of his trees. But Paul’s work is too important, his good news...

Nowhere is this more evident than in the scientific study of how the universe began and developed - the field of origins. This book has been written in the conviction that the first eleven chapters of the book of Genesis - the Bible's book of beginnings - provide a trustworthy and accurate account of the early history of the universe.
