Whom Thou Choosest
Sometimes we just need to gather up our thoughts. We can ponder things in such a way that we see a theme, and then we develop the theme by picking through some scripture. The word chosen occurs in a couple of Jesus' parables.
Simplistic Complexity
Our last attempt to explain to a Pastor that hell is in the center of the Earth didn’t go well. It was over a year ago and we’ve been biding our time since, intentionally avoiding contentious public disputes with other Christians.
Katartizó: κατηρτίσθαι – were framed
There's nothing in this definition of the word used for the act of creating the universe about it being from nothing. The clear understanding is that something was mended, repaired and completed.

Atheism's actuality: in order to make the argument that God lies in the Bible, facultative authority has to be imputed to the Bible, and the accuser has become a hypocrite.
Spirits in Prison – Part 2
The last piece of the puzzle which we have to solve is whether or not Jesus, having descended into the lower parts of the Earth, then took the Old Testament saints, who'd been waiting in sheol, to heaven.

A Pure Heart
When we get saved we're indwelt by the Holy Spirit, and that cleanses us of whatever other spiritual problems we may have been facing. That's when we're ready to stand before the Lord because we're in Christ Jesus.
