By David Roach

When it comes to the end of time, at least one thing is certain: Southern Baptists have a variety of opinions.

Teaching the Christian World and Life View

What is “Christian” education? How is it different from “public” education? What makes Christian education “Christian”? No. 1. Is it “Christian” because the teacher is a Christian?

THANK YOU FOR THE FLEAS

“In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” -1Thess 5:18 It’s simple to thank God when He does miracles and answers prayers just the way we want them answered. It’s also pretty easy to thank Him when we can look around and see many blessings in our lives. When our situation seems awful, though, and we’re struggling through tragedy or just plain hard times, it can seem hard to believe that God is really there taking care of things; it can be hard to say, “I know You love me. Thank you for what You are doing even now.” . . . → Read More: THANK YOU FOR THE FLEAS

Jesus' Deity

Jesus, Who is He? Jesus has two natures at the same time: divine and human at the same time. He is both God and man (John 1:1,14; Col. 2:9). This is called the Hypostatic Union. Jesus was born of the virgin Mary (Matt. 1:18; Luke 1:35). “He was born under the Law (Gal. 4:4) and fulfilled all of the Law of God (John 4:34 ; 8:29), even to the point of death (Phil. 2:8).” In His death He bore the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us (Gal. 3:13). Thus in the death of Christ the sins of His people were judged (Rom. 3:23-26) and forgotten (Heb. 8:12), and the result of His act of righteousness was eternal life (Rom. 5:18). Jesus is worshiped (Matt. 2:2,11; 14:33; John 9:35-38; Heb. 1:6). Jesus is prayed to (Acts 7:55-60; Psalm 116:4 with 1 Cor. 1:1-2). Jesus is called God (John 20:28; Heb. 1:8). He is the creator (John 1:1-3; Col. 1:15-17); Jesus is uncreated (John 1:1-3; Col. 1:15-17). . . . → Read More: Jesus' Deity
