    One clear similarity involving both the 1925 Baptist Faith and Message and 1963 Baptist Faith and Message is the preamble. Both architects took great care in wording the preamble content. Herschel Hobbs called the 1963 preamble "as important as any other part." In both the 1925 and 1963 the preamble clearly states the document is not a Southern Baptist creed and both chairmen were adamant about emphasizing that point. Both viewed their respective documents as a guide rather than a conscience authority.…

    Samuel, a judge for Israel, saved them from the Philistines, and led them back to God. When Samuel grew old, the people did not want a new judge. The tribes of Israel had many problems working together. Each tribes had their own leader with different rules to follow. The people of Israel demanded a King to be like the other nations. Samuel attempted to answer the concerns of the people by appointing his sons to be judges over Israel, but the Elders was not happy with Samuel’s decision.

    One aspect of having an abiding walk with Christ, that led to the naming of this ministry, is educating people on the Word of God. We live in a time where knowledge is freely available. Every time you look at your phone you hold access to more knowledge than ever could have fit in the famed Library of Alexandria. Yet we also live in one of the most Bible illiterate times. People know less about the Word of God today than ever before. Dr. Albert Mohler points out in his article, “The Scandal of Bible Illiteracy: It’s Our Problem,” that less than half can list the four gospels. This is elementary, this is basic. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Less than half can do that. So, how can the majority then claim to understand the gospel message enough…

    Marcus J. Borg is a Professor of Region and Culture at Oregon State University. Including Reading the Bible Again for the First Time, he has written the following books: The God We Never Knew, and Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time. Borg has been studying and teaching for 35 years at various universities. His specialty is Jesus and the Gospels, but expresses an interest in the Hebrew Bible. Borg has taught both subjects, and much of his book comes from teaching undergraduates. He describes himself as a “nonliteralistic and nonexclusivistic” Christian who lives “within the Christian tradition”. Many of his ideas flow out of life experience. For example, when he was studying the prophet, Amos, in college, Borg says that is a turning point in his faith. He claimed to function as a “closet atheist” before learning of the extremes to which the prophets would go for their cause; he compares them to protestors in the 60’s. Therefore, studying the prophets allowed him to take off his “childhood lense” of the Bible, and see the people of the Bible in a more realistic way. By taking off that “lense”, he became more immersed in the Bible which encouraged him to go to seminary. Throughout Reading the Bible Again for the First Time, Borg calls his audience to also take off their “childhood lense”, or way of seeing the Bible, and begin reading it in a different way.…

    Judaism is one of the oldest religions on earth, dating back almost 4000 years. It started as a very peaceful and family oriented religion.

The town of Jerusalem is the center of Jewish religion for over 3000 years. The town has the largest Jewish population since 1840. Moses revealed the Torah to the Hebrew people.
