And of course, this topic is pertinent to LDS as well.

Evangelical thoughts on gods in John 10:34 & Psalm 82 – Part 9
Read these samplings. Pardon me if I have placed copy errors in these interesting quotes. If pointed out, I will quickly correct any problems. Once again, I have categorized the thoughts into three themes. (more…)
How can I explain my love for Scripture? Part 8
Have you watched the LDS flick, Passage to Zarahemla, directed by Chris Heimerdinger?
I did have to chuckle over all the one liners that “Sakerra” gives in describing the Mormons to her little brother.
But let me cut to the chase. Katherine Nelson Thompson sings the song “Whispered Vision” that Heimerdinger wrote.
You may listen to the song on the MP3 player functioning at the Heimerdinger Music website.
One phrase (maybe not in its exactness) stands out to me:
. . . the ink is the word and the word is the thought and the thought is the light of the God of my soul . . .

California doesn’t like the curriculum of my alma mater
Don’t they realize that when an author adds a Bible verse to their textbook, it sets aside/makes void/annuls the whole curriculum?

John 10:35 – High View of Scripture (Part 7)
Coupled with the word, elohim, is this pointed statement:

How can anyone claim to be a follower of Jesus Christ and not have a high view of Scripture?
Don’t Creationists Believe Some “Wacky” Things?
Sometime, I need to list all the books donated to our church family, published by Master Books (Answers in Genesis). Perhaps, I will compile the list and place it in this thread.
The title of this post is taken from chapter 15 in the book, The New Answers Book (2006), general editor, Ken Ham.
Douglas W. Phillips, president of Vision Forum; John D. Morris, president of Institute for Creation Research; Ray Comfort, Living Waters Publications, and Dennis Rainey, president of FamilyLife provide endorsements on the page before the table of contents.
In chapter 15, Bodie Hodge tackles seven myths: (more…)
Yahweh is El; Yahweh is El-Elyon (Part 6)
John 10:34 has taken me back to Psalms 82 and a plethora of others.
First, are we agreed on the title of this post?
Secondly, concerning El, wouldn’t you agree that He is the ultimate Judge over every council that you can imagine to the farthest stretches of your thinking? How much scope do you allow for the presidency of El?
Do you think there are elohim in existence beyond the jurisdiction of El? I can imagine what the Canaanite ancients would say. But what is the revelation of Yahweh?
“Ye are gods” – John 10:34 (part 5)
Moving from verse 30 to verse 34, let me ask a question.
First, are there any LDS scholars or laymen, past or present, who believe the gods can be in reference to angels?

And yet Happy Hanukkah! Because this is the kind of discussion that should take place every winter. 😉
