Writing in the Dust

Hard Sayings of Jesus

I have good news for you today. The Bible isn’t contradicting itself. If we’re confused, it’s simply a sign we’re not “rightly dividing” it. And I have even better news for you, God doesn’t expect you to start plucking out eyeballs and hacking off limbs.

Crumbs to the Dogs

Why was Jesus seemingly cold to the desperate Canaanite woman with the demon-possessed daughter?

Hate and Division

Does Jesus Want you to Hate your Parents, Spouse, Siblings, and Children?

Sell Everything?

For centuries, there have been sincere people who believed that being a Christian required taking a vow of poverty thinking that owning anything was incompatible with following Jesus. Where would people get such an idea?

Who Is the God of This World?

Did Jesus Really call Satan “The God of this World?”

Jesus and the Old Testament Law

Many well-meaning believers have taken Jesus’ statement that He did not come to abolish the Law to mean that He was leaving the Old Covenant regulations in place if not all of them, at least some of them. We’re about to see that that’s just not the case.
