DOES THE BIBLE CONTAIN CONTRADICTIONS?— Six of a Seven-part Series — The Passing of Time Between Passages

Categories:

by Gary Henson

April 11, 2025

Does a history book contradict itself when it contains within its pages the following statements: “Ronald Reagan was a movie star;” “Ronald Reagan was the Governor of California;” “Ronald Reagan was the president”? No, because at different points in time each statement was true. As time passes, things change.So it is with the Bible. At …

DOES THE BIBLE CONTAIN CONTRADICTIONS?— Five of a Seven-part Series — The Use of Symbolism

Categories:

by Gary Henson

April 3, 2025

The usage of symbolism in the American speech saturates our society. There probably never has been a language which did not employ it. “He runs faster than a cheetah,” “His mind is a computer,” “The linebacker is a moose” are all phrases which describe, not a literal actuality, but a superior characteristic in symbolic terms. …

DOES THE BIBLE CONTAIN CONTRADICTIONS?— Three of a Seven-part Series — Different Names Given To Same Item

Categories:

by Gary Henson

March 27, 2025

Contradictions can also be erroneously claimed by regarding one item as two different items. Two men had a never-ending argument over the authorship of Tom Sawyer. One claimed it was Mark Twain. The other insisted it was Samuel Clemens.When a Bible character (as well as a place or event) has more than one name, the …

DOES THE BIBLE CONTAIN CONTRADICTIONS?— Three of a Seven-part Series — Two Different Events Regarded As One

Categories:

by Gary Henson

March 20, 2025

It would be very easy to think the Bible contradicted itself if a reader confused two similar events as one. While both accounts would be very similar, any differences due to the fact that they were different would be thought a contradiction. One of the most amazing similarities between two items was the lives of …

DOES THE BIBLE CONTAIN CONTRADICTIONS?— Two of a Seven-part Series — Harmonize Both Accounts or Verses

Categories:

by Gary Henson

March 13, 2025

Numerous contradictions are imagined when one fails to harmonize both accounts. At a social gathering, you may overhear a discussion in which a man states that his son is ill at home. Later, you hear the same man state that his son is currently at work. Is there a contradiction? You would think so, unless …

DOES THE BIBLE CONTAIN CONTRADICTIONS?

Categories:

by Gary Henson

March 6, 2025

The word “contradiction” means to make two statements in which it is impossible for both to be true. For example, the statement, “This page is totally white,” contradicts the statement, “This page is not totally white.” Both cannot be true. They contradict.Human beings make contradictions. We are faulty; we make errors; we are not perfect. …

February 27, 2025

There are hundreds of charitable organizations to which people give millions of dollars every year. With such amazing sums of contributions, one might wonder: “Why do people give so much? Is it a requirement, like taxes?” No, people give freely because they are convinced of the great good their contribution accomplishes. Christians, too, need to …

February 20, 2025

Truly, one of the major decisions of life is that of choosing a career. The choice that a person makes in this matter sets the course for one’s life. Only an imprudent person would approach this crucial decision without looking far down the road to where the various options lead, or without listening to the …

“IF” OR: THE REST OF THE STORY REGARDING VERSES WHICH ARE USED IN ATTEMPT TO PROVE “ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED”

Categories:

by Gary Henson

February 15, 2025

One of the most popular doctrines of Satan is the unbiblical teaching that once a person becomes saved he will never loose his salvation. In spite of the fact that the Bible very plainly states that some Christians had “fallen from grace” (Gal. 5:4 [See also: Heb. 6:4-6; 2 Pet. 2:20-22; James 5:19-20; John 15:1-6]) …

A Message From Mike

Categories:

by Gary Henson

January 30, 2025

You might be able to find someone who is as friendly as Mike Tillery, but you cannot find one who is friendlier. Mike was a friend’s friend. If you are unable to claim him as your friend, it is simply because you had not met him. Actually, I think it is fair to say that …
