By admin | December 31, 2018 | 0

As you enter the new year, no doubt you are setting goals, making plans, and starting new resolutions. Reading the Bible should be one of them, but you should not read the Bible alone. Recruiting the help of those who have studied the Bible longer than you have is always wise. Whether you are a…

By Timothy Gatewood | December 28, 2018 | 0

On June 9, 2018, I turned 66. Age, I am discovering, can be a powerful tool in your hands. It can motivate you to be more than you ever were before. The past is simply the beginning of the process of becoming better and becoming more in Christ. The concept of “finishing well” has been…

By Timothy Gatewood | December 25, 2018 | 0

When one grows up in the British Commonwealth (as I did), one feels a certain right to begin a paper like this with an illustration involving the Queen. There must be some tangible pay off from such an upbringing. So I will claim my right here, and start with such an illustration. The Queen of England…

The Sounding Joy: Four Reasons to Rejoice in Jesus’ Arrival

By Timothy Gatewood | December 24, 2018 | 0

Luke’s infancy narratives provide the most detailed description of Jesus’ birth and its surrounding events. The Gospel writer records the angelic announcements of John the Baptist’s birth to Zechariah (1:5–25), then Jesus’ birth to Mary (1:26–38). Mary’s song of praise (1:46–56) and Zechariah’s prophecy (1:67–80) are wondrously recounted. The births of John the Baptist (1:57–66) and that…

By Timothy Gatewood | December 21, 2018 | 0

Bethlehem, the Nativity, and Matthew’s New Exodus

By Timothy Gatewood | December 19, 2018 | 0

With Christmas season upon us, the eyes of Christians worldwide turn to Bethlehem, the city immortalized in Scripture, songs, and pageants as the birthplace of Jesus Christ. Though it once was and still remains a relatively small city, its significance far outstrips its size. In ancient Israel, Bethlehem is recorded to be the nearby locale…

What is the difference between “Son of Man” and “Son of God”? New Credo video with Stephen Wellum

By Timothy Gatewood | December 18, 2018 | 0

By Timothy Gatewood | December 17, 2018 | 0

Does Jesus know what it’s like to be us? We want to believe that; but can we? After all, he was never married with six kids, as some of us are. He never lived past 33, as many of us do. He was a man, not a woman. He was Jewish, not some other ethnicity.…
