Welcome to my Web-site! I wanted to make a site available where people could read materials that would spur, encourage, and help them correctly handle the Word of God. Why is it called "Bereans of the Bible?" In Acts 17:11, the believers at Berea were called 'noble' and were commended for "examining the Scriptures daily" to make sure that the teachings of the Apostle Paul were true. If Paul, who was appointed by God Himself, was being "checked-out", How much more should we be analyzing and investigating the veracity of modern-practitioners of the Bible? The Gallup and Barna surveys have concluded that only 16% of those who call themselves Christians read their Bible's daily. Is it any wonder why so many Christians love to quote foolish and short-pithy statements like, "I just don't think a God of Love would..." or "Well who are we to judge since we aren't GOD," when in reality they have never taken the time to "study to show themselves approved unto the Lord" and carelessly make unwise and often times defensive statements in order to cover-up their lack of understanding. My prayer is that you would be Berean-like in searching the Scriptures and Christ-like in practice and living. I've included a list of my favorite links to other sites that I feel will be helpful to your own personal studies.
