Must the Bible explicitly condemn something to make it wrong?

Jerry Falwell is calling for a more charitable view, he says, towards the “gay” community.

The Bible student is sometimes puzzled as to why much of the boyhood life of Christ is omitted from the New Testament record. This was no accident. Actually, it is a subtle evidence of the inspiration of the sacred record. This week’s Penpoints touches on this issue.

Do the relative ages of the Earth and mankind really matter? Is the issue important? Many say, “no.” But what does the Bible indicate?

Here are several important references to the church at Ephesus.

Does the language of Genesis 2:23 indicate that Adam was searching for a suitable mate among the animals for a long period of time? Does this interpretation provide support for the so-called “Day-age” theory?

The Christian lives in a world where he interacts with other people on a daily basis. What sort of impression are we leaving upon others?

Jesus once declared, “Salvation is from the Jews.” What did he mean?

Racism is an insidious evil that lies at the root of much hate against both man and God.

Divorce and remarriage are serious moral issues. The law of God, as made known in the New Testament, is the standard of truth that regulates the institution of marriage. The Christian must seek to determine the will of God in times of marital difficulty, neither binding nor loosing where the Lord has not.
