    Necesitamos al Esp穩ritu Santo

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    El Esp穩ritu Santo es esencial para la vida y ense簽anza cristiana. De hecho, no creo exagerar al afirmar que sin la ayuda y poder del Esp穩ritu Santo todos nuestros esfuerzos tanto para agradar a Dios como para ense簽ar a otros a hacerlo carecen de sentido y, por lo tanto, los resultados son insignificantes. Desgraciadamente, en muchas ocasiones el Esp穩ritu Santo es olvidado, minimizado o incluso relevado a solamente una teor穩a teol籀gica que creemos porque se encuentra en la Biblia, pero que no tiene ninguna relevancia en nuestra vida diaria. De hecho, llegu矇 a escuchar a un profesor de un seminario afirmar que muchos cristianos de forma pr獺ctica creen que la santa trinidad est獺 compuesta por el Padre, el Hijo y las Santas Escrituras. De esta manera, la presencia del Esp穩ritu Santo es totalmente olvidada.

    The "Why?" of Internships for Ministry Preparation

    Dave Keehn — 

    Mentoring may be a buzz-word in the business world, but the practice of developing another person for specific purposes of skill or leadership development has been around since the beginning of civilization. It is evident throughout Scripture especially in the ministries of Jesus and Paul. However, the integration of mentoring for ministry preparation within academic settings has built in problems. SO WHY BOTHER? For many reasons...

    Pictures of Jesus

    Gary Manning Jr — 

    The latest news on historical Jesus research can now be found in Popular Mechanics? Im used to perusing Popular Mechanics to see flying cars, homemade submarines, and ads for power tools. But Popular Mechanics published a reconstructed picture of Jesus (quite a while ago, but I just noticed it!). Ill show you the picture and explain it in just a bit. But first, I want you to see some of my favorite portraits of Jesus. My students have become accustomed to seeing these non-traditional pictures of Jesus decorating my powerpoint lecture notes. This picture of Jesus and the Samaritan Woman (from the Via Latina catacomb, ca. 340-350) was painted by a Roman, so Jesus and the woman both have Roman hairstyles and clothing. No beard on Jesus!

    Every Question Paul Asks in Romans

    Kenneth Berding — 

    A few weeks ago I put up a post with the title: Something 51蹤獲 the Book of Romans that will Really Help You Get It. (Click HERE to read it.) I rounded out that article with a list of questions from Romans to help people see the importance of the ethnic issues going on in the background of the letter to the Romans. Some people expressed surprise that there were so many questions in the book of Romansits not something that they had noticed before. Well, there are a whole lot more questions in Romans than the ones I listed. Questions are one of the ways Paul moves his argument forward. Do you want to see how many questions there are?

    "Children of God" (John 1:13)

    Gary Manning Jr — 

    This morning, I began teaching Greek sentence diagramming to my students in Introduction to Exegesis. Some students love diagramming, but probably more dread it, at least at first. I picked some sentences to diagram from John 1, mainly because the students had just translated this passage a few weeks ago. One sentence in particular, John 1:12-13, reveals that nerdy analytical approaches such as Greek diagramming can help understand passages of Scripture better. Heres the diagram (with a translation below for non-Greek readers) 廔怷庣 帤廔 廒弇帢帣怷彖 帢廔彖, 廒帤庥庰彖 帢廔怷彃 廒徆怷巹帢彖 峟庥彖帢 庛庰怷彃 帠庰彖峟庛帢庣, 怷彃 庣庰怷庣彖 庰廒區 廔 廔彖怷弮帢 帢廔怷彃,

    "Jesus' Wife" Papyrus: an Update

    Gary Manning Jr — 

    Last week, I posted my initial take on the so-called "Gospel of Jesus' Wife." My first point was that it was "too early to tell" whether the manuscript was genuine. In the last twenty years, forgers have produced some amazingly convincing forgeries, so scholars have become cautious about all archeological finds.
