Greater Love Has No Man Than This…
“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” To lay down one’s life for one’s friends is the greatest act of devotion and love one person could possibly show to another. How many of us would actually do it though? Many of us have probably told somebody else that we would die for them, but when push came to shove would we have the courage to…

What is Truth?
“What is Truth?” Those three words were mockingly uttered by Pontius Pilate to Jesus shortly before he washed his hands and sentenced him to death. He knew that the truth was that Jesus was innocent and did not deserve to die. He gave into the will of the masses and what they wanted the truth to be. This question came just after Jesus told Pilate that he came into the world to bear witness to…

There are only three possible alternatives: Either nothing existed and somehow came into existence on its own and evolved into what we have today, matter always existed and created the universe by chance, or God always existed and He created the universe We know through…

Christianity: A box used for control or a ‘box’ that will set you free?
Many atheists consider Christianity a box which is used to stifle thought and will, a box which the church, and man, can use to control people, and I think we can admit that this has happened at times in the past. I would argue the opposite is actually true. If you accept the Word you will be set free from the box which men use to bind you with the chains of this world. Then,…

Welcome to Cross Talk
Hello and thank you for stopping by, and for taking the time to find out what Cross Talk is all about. Honestly, I’m not exactly sure where Cross Talk is going to go. I envision this as a place where we can discuss Bible passages, apologetics, theology, and maybe even some philosophy. I am an amateur, I have no training in theology, philosophy, or writing for that matter. I study the Bible and I am…

How great the chasm that lay between us.
How high the mountain I could not climb.
In desperation, I turned to heaven,
And spoke Your name into the night.
Then through the darkness, Your loving kindness,
Tore through the shadows of my soul
