Here are several important references to the church at Ephesus.

The Bible explicitly teaches that immersion is “for the remission of sins” (Acts 2:38).

When the plan of salvation is so easy to understand, why do some go to such great lengths to obscure it?

Some Christians have never graduated out of biblical kindergarten.

Why is there so much religious diversity in the world—or even in the community of “Christendom”? Surely such is not the ideal will of God. Let us consider this theme most carefully.

Why do most modern translations use the word baptize, an anglicized Greek word, rather than translating the Greek word into English?

The conversion of Cornelius in Acts 10 contains valuable lessons for today.

In a new volume on Greek grammar, Dr. Daniel Wallace (of the Dallas Theological Seminary), has made a monumental concession which devastates a common denominational rationalization relative to the meaning of eis in Acts 2:38.

Was Cornelius, the Roman centurion, saved before and without baptism? Some so claim.

One dirty little trick used to confuse sincere people about the purpose of baptism.

Several passages in Acts provide us with first-century examples that help us to understand what it means to “preach Jesus.”

Members of the Lord’s church are sometimes erroneously referred to as “Campbellites.” What exactly is behind such appellation?

Have you ever considered the fact that “salvation” can be a future, past, present, still future event, depending upon the vantage point from which one is speaking? Think about this “tense” issue with us.

The appellation of “Christian” is widely used as a category of people. But who, in fact, is (and who is not) a Christian?

John Calvin wielded a great influence in the religious community on the subject of grace. His ideas are circulated in several denominations, and, tragically, have found their way into the thinking of many people.
