Why? Because he is the payment in full for every sin that will ever be committed on this earth. And he, ladies and gentlemen, is my defense attorney, and he, ladies and gentlemen, is your defense attorney. . . http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-07-17.html http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-07-17.html Sat, 17 Jul 2010 12:47:00 CDT Gilt edged securities issued by the most financially sound corporation in the whole world are not as sound as the promises of God. Wall Street fluctuates the value of your money in the bank but the promises of God has suffered no fluctuations in any way whatsoever. . . http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-07-14.html http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-07-14.html Wed, 14 Jul 2010 14:35:00 CDT Bullinger's Companion Bible is the Bible that I read every day. His Critical Lexicon and Concordance to the Greek and English New Testament is a resource that I always consult when I'm doing an in-depth study of a Greek word. His book on how to rightly-divide the Scriptures, How to Enjoy the Bible, sits at-the-ready on my bookshelf for whenever I need consult it, or just want to read through the studies in it. And it is safe to say that his reference work Figures of Speech Used in the Bible is a landmark work in that field of study. This last book, I am pleased to announce thanks to the hard work of an individual who wishes to remain anonymous, we are now able to make available to BRJ readers in PDF format. . . http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-07-13.html http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-07-13.html Tue, 13 Jul 2010 07:`5:00 CST I thought that it might be profitable for readers of this journal to look at a couple or three excerpts from I letter that I have written to someone close to me. The traffic accident that I mention in the letter is the same one I talked about on Part Seven of my series of podcast teachings on Philippians 2:13. . . http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/002_podcast_007.html http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/002_podcast_007.html Mon, 05 Jul 2010 11:42:00 CDT "This bellyaching and griping, we are supposed to do without it." http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-03-08.html http://www.biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-03-08.html Mon, 08 Mar 2010 19:42:00 CST Over the course of history, things change. Cultures change, technologies change, the accepted rules of legitimacy in governance change, relative levels of prosperity change, a lot of things change. But in the field of mathematics, nothing ever changes. Whether we are talking about pre-history, ancient times, medieval times or modern times, two times two has always and will always equal four. Yet at the beginning of this Depression, which we are living through in the United States of America and around the world, with the evidence of history staring us in the face -- from the Great Depression of the 1930s all the way back to Joseph in Egypt -- we continue to believe and act as if, somehow or other, we are "special." As if the vagaries of the past somehow don't apply to us. As if "this time is different" . . . http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-02-21.html http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-02-21.html Sun, 21 Feb 2010 13:10:00 CST Back in 1990 I saw a a lecture on the subject of mixed-use city planning by the noted architect Andres Duany. He delivered it to a civic group here in San Antonio, and video of it was broadcast several times on San Antonio's cable TV's "Government Access" channel. The first time I saw Duany's talk it grabbed my attention. I not only watched several repeats, I also recorded it on my VCR. Unfortunately the two copies I made were misplaced over the years. And by now even if they were found, I no longer own a videotape player. What struck me were the principles that Duany adheres to . . . http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-02-18.html http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2010-02-18.html Thu, 18 Feb 2010 17:30:00 CST Some people may think that I was exagerating, when I wrote in Part One that, "Kingdom Theology, in practical terms, is nothing less than an attempt by the Adversary to erect a fundamentalist so-called 'Christian' establishment of religion, in violation of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Akin to what the fundamentalist Muslims are after in the Muslim world." I have honestly conidered it, but no I do not think am guilty of exageration. . . . http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2009-11-08.html http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2009-11-08.html Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:15:00 CST It was eye opening some years ago to discover in Dr. Martin E. P. Seligman's book, Learned Optimism: How to Change Your Mind and Your Life that the Biblical principles of the renewed mind -- which I was introduced to in Dr. Victor Paul Wierwille's "Power for Abundant Living" class and learned more in-depth in Rev. Walter Cummins' "Renewed Mind" class -- have been proven in controlled studies using double-blind experiments involving people suffering from or at risk of psychological depression . . . http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2009-11-03.html http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2009-11-03.html Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:30:00 CST Sorry, but just because you publish a picture of George Washington praying next to the quote "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord," like the one that was published in The Way Magazine years ago, that does not make the United States of America God's nation . . . http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2009-10-27.html http://biblicalresearchjournal.org/brj-pages_html/001bp_2009-10-27.html Tue, 27 Oct 2009 06:30:00 CDT In the English language there is a vast difference in meaning between the definite and indefinite article. For instance if I say, "This picture is the illustration (definite article) of the gizmo," I may well mean that that the picture I am referring to represents the one-and-only illustration of it that exists. But if I say, "This picture is an illustration (indefinite article) of the gizmo," I am implying that this may be only one illustration among some number of others . . . http://www.3dentourage.com/word/641b.mp3 http://www.3dentourage.com/word/641b.mp3 Sat, 04 Apr 2009 15:37:00 CDT Dr. Wierwille explains what's behind the "love of money," a most timely subject from the Word of God, given the events that are unfolding in our world today.
