-Recap: "Did the Gospel of Judas Show Mislead Millions?"

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

Here is an article on the Baptist Press which lists a number of ways that the National Geographic distorted the truth in their portrayal of Judas as a ‘hero’ in the supposed "Gospel of Judas". Apparently, the translation which was done by their ‘dream team’ of experts was not entirely accurate.

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

While Muslims in the USA have felt increasingly isolated from mainstream America since 9/11, they have found one group, the Mormons, who have reached out with understanding and friendship according to a recent LA Times article.

Here’s a great article for Easter- “Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead?” by William Lane Craig, professor of philosophy at Talbot School of Theology in La Mirada, California.
He looks at the facts concerning the resurrection of Jesus–a timely pursuit for the Easter season:

Should Christians Use the Name ‘Allah’ For God?

Atheists Look at ‘Radical Christianity’ as a Threat?

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

A recent study by the Barna Group shows that atheists and agnostics consider ‘radical Christianity’ as just as great a threat as ‘radical Islam’.
Actually this probably is to be expected. If you have heard any of the famous atheists lately on radio or TV, or if you have browsed through or read any of the [...]

What Do Mormons Really Believe? -What Bible Version Do They Use?

What Do Mormons Really Believe? -About The Bible

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

The Bible is only one of the books that Mormons recognize as scripture. They believe in the Bible as it was originally written and have doubts about its present form and the modern translations.
