The Sufficiency of Scripture to Care for the Soul
In a world filled with countless voices promising healing, identity, and purpose, Scripture stands apart as the wholly sufficient word of God for the care of the soul. The voice of the Creator—who made and understands the soul—should be our ultimate authority in tending to its needs. For this reason, I am convinced that the Bible offers the foundational wisdom and power necessary to accurately diagnose and address the deepest needs of the human soul.
Is Jesus the Messianic Davidide of Psalm 2?
Did Psalm 2 prophesy a future David who would expand the land and line promises? Why the NT uses this Psalm so frequently.
Christ, in Whom are Hidden All the Treasures
Welcome to my personal website, Christotelic.faith. In theological terms, that word has to do with Christ (Christos) as the “end” or “goal” (telic) of the entirety of the Old Testament (Rom 10:5). The Bible has one uninterrupted storyline that culminates and terminates in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the end goal to which the entirety of Scripture points. I genuinely think that a human being has no higher privilege or goal than to reflect worshipfully and deeply on Christ who is “the image of the invisible God and the exact representation of His being” (Heb 1:3; 12:2). I explore topics of interest in the light of the revelation of God’s Son, Jesus. My purpose for this website is to produce scholarly reflection on the life and identity of Christ in order to help academics to reorient themselves ultimately to a Christocentric focus in their research.
Was Jesus an Illiterate Yokel from Backwater Nazareth?
Did Luke fabricate or report on a mistaken memory of Jesus reading and teaching in synagogue? And examination of the relevant evidence suggests that this scene in Luke 4:16–30 is entirely credible.
Have we Forgotten the Gospel of the “Kingdom”?
What is the “gospel” of Jesus and why is it so important that we get this one right? The first chapter of Romans helps us to formulate an answer to those questions.
What is TIS (Theological Interpretation of Scripture)?
The TIS movement (Theological Interpretation of Scripture) was a reaction to the often barren exegesis of the historical-critical model. But what exactly is it and should we affirm it? And if we do affirm it in what sense should we consider it useful?

What evidence is there for God’s existence?
