Can we understand the Bible? – Forthright Magazine

http://forthright.net/articles/the_lost_bible.html

Can we understand the Bible? Women often complain that the man they’re with does not communicate. He must be the strong silent type, they will say. I wish he would talk. He talks all day at work, but he doesn’t talk with me. Of course, if a man (or a woman, for that matter), wants his partner to do something in a certain way, he might consider using actual words to communicate this. Sometimes a wife will say, But he should know what I like! And how would that be? In other words, at the last day will God ...

Preparing for prayer – Forthright Magazine

http://forthright.net/2015/05/19/preparing-prayer

Talking to the Creator is beyond human comprehension. We’re lifted up when we humble ourselves before him (James 4:10), because our sins can close the ears of God (Luke 18:9-14; Isaiah 59:1-2). Prayer requires preparation because approaching God isn’t a casual affair. The solemnity and reverence in the Father’s throne room in Revelation 4-5 can touch us deeply. Let’s pause and consider the beauty of God’s creation. 8220;The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord” (Psalm 33:5). Richard lives in Florenc...

Then he said, ‘What gravestone is this that I see? Certainly it is unusual for an ordinary public cemetery to be a tourist attraction.

Blessings and birthrights – Forthright Magazine

http://forthright.net/2015/08/07/blessings-and-birthrights

Normally throughout history, when it came to inheritance, the eldest son was the one who received the greatest part. He usually received the birthright, which under the Mosaic Law meant that he got a double portion due to his being the oldest. He was the one who would also receive the greatest blessing. Esau actually gave away his birthright to Jacob, for a bowl of stew! After they were grown, he had been out in the fields, probably hunting. He had possibly been gone for several days, and when he ret...
