  • 71. Division and the Unity of God

    Clifford Denton There is no doubt that division characterises much of what we experience on this earth. Indeed, from the time of Adam, man has been alienated from God.

  • 69. Romans 2:16 and the Son of Man

    Hilary Le Cornu The meaning of the term “Son of Man” in the New Testament has long been debated. Since it is only found in the mouth of Yeshua, it has become the focus of christological speculation, linked with the issue of Yeshua’s self-awareness. Scholars are divided, however, over whether it is a messianic title […]

  • 68. Son of Man/Son of God, Editorial

    Clifford Denton It has not been easy to put this edition together. I resolved to do something, when the issue of the doctrine of the Trinity was questioned by friends who are keen to rediscover the Biblical origins of our Faith.

  • 64. Where are You? A Jerusalem Artist Speaks out About the Power of Art

    Elhanan ben-Avraham “Arise, shine for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.

  • 63. Humanism: A Parable

    Hilary Le Cornu Humanism is commonly regarded in evangelical Christian circles as a source of many of the evils of modern society. Humanism is considered to foster, embody, and generate a large number of the forces of secularism against which it is the duty of the good Christian to fight. Although the social characteristics through […]

  • 62. Secular Humanism

    Olga Marshall Our world is being swamped and sunk by a religion-gone mad: Humanism.
