2 Timothy 3:12-13 (NET) those who deceive are often themselves deceived by sin, Satan, and the world. This does not absolve them of sin, but it points to the remedy. Like us all, deceivers need the truth, and the truth is found in the Scriptures (3:15-17). #Bible #Christianity
1 Tim 4:13. Brothers and sisters, are our words more important than God's words? Why, then, are we content to read some of the Bible in church and let the focus be on our sermons? Teach and exhort, yes, but devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture--all of it. #Bible
The question of "pronoun hospitality" has been a hot topic among Christians. I want to argue that the nature of language and the status of Christians as exiles in this world give some support to the idea of "pronoun hospitality." teleioteti.ca/2025/07/17/pro…

Jesus calls us to love our neighbours, even our enemies. That is tough sometimes, isn't it? Yet, Jesus calls us to love as we have been loved. Many Christians perceive Muslims to be their enemies, yet Jesus's command remains the same. #jesusheals teleioteti.ca/2025/07/10/lov…

We know Christ has all authority in heaven and earth. He will accomplish all his purposes. However, our Lord's path to victory is not winning in any sense the World recognises. The Cross is the model of Christian victory. teleioteti.ca/2025/04/24/the…
When we look at God's preservation of the Bible, it appears really messy. Yet we have abundant evidence that the Bible we have is reliable. In contrast with the Quran, we see that this "messiness" is actually evidence of God's great wisdom. teleioteti.ca/2025/04/17/the…
Christianity has often been called one of three great or Abrahamic monotheistic religions. Yet, is "monotheism" really a helpful term to describe the Christian God, especially if it connects Christian beliefs about God with Islamic and Talmudic beliefs? teleioteti.ca/2025/04/03/is-…

1 Cor 10:12-13 (ESV). We often fall to temptation because we think there is no way of escape. But God is faithful, who will give us a way out of temptation.
