The theory that the people of Germany exhibited indifference during the Holocaust is widely believed to be true by many people. Both James M. Glass’ “Against the Indifference Hypothesis: The Holocaust and the Enthusiasts for Murder” and Omer Bartov’s “Defining Enemies, Making Victims: Germans, Jews, and the Holocaust” provide alternative reasoning for why German citizens not only watched the slaughter, but also actively participated in it. While Glass effectively argues that the German…

THE TEN VIRGINS AND THE OIL Let us prove this point from the Scriptures. God is a Spirit. God is also the Word. The Spirit always leads to the Word. This is even confirmed by the parable of the Ten Virgins and the Oil (Matthew 25: 1-13). Five of them were wise and five were foolish. They all took their lamps and went forth to meet the bridegroom. The wise took their lamps and also extra oil in a separate vessel. The foolish took their lamps but did not take extra oil with them. The…

His life and influence has lead to the founding of nations, the composition of songs, and the writing of many, many…

To Bear Fruit After the high priest Caiaphas declares that Jesus should be put to death, Jesus returns to Jerusalem for the Passover. Just before Passover, Jesus and his disciples are enjoying their last meal together. After the meal Jesus proceeds to tell the disciples that he is going to prepare a place for them in his fathers house. Jesus tells them that he will lead them there, which is also a recurring theme throughout the book of John. With the disciples still being confused on his…

Also, while Matthew and Mark are very similar to each other and almost the same, Luke is different from them and is more similar to John. In addition, an unspecified amount of…

This is why Caiaphas tears his robes and accuses Jesus of blasphemy. If Jesus were simply claiming for himself to be human or to be a human, Caiaphas’s response is unusual, to say the least, and possibly even inexplicable. But Jesus was making a direct claim by his…
