“Sleepy Joe” Hypocrisy Haunts Sleepy Trump

Last updated on: April 23, 2024 at 12:24 am By Kermit Zarley

I’ve purposely avoided posting about former President Donald Trump’s four legal indictments he is facing as he simultaneously campaigns for the presidential election this fall as the certain, Republican nominee. From the time Trump first began to campaign for the U.S. presidency, in mid-2015, to soon after he exited the Oval Office, I posted about 350 times about him on my blog. Some people say I was obsessed about it. I prefer to believe that I was rightly worried about... Read more

John’s Gospel Denies Jesus Is God More than the Synoptics Do

Last updated on: April 28, 2025 at 11:46 am By Kermit Zarley

0 Comments

New Testament scholars–both conservative and liberal–claim there is a big difference in theology, particularly Christology, between the synoptic gospels—Matthew, Mark, and Luke—and John’s gospel. They assert the synoptics portray a “low Christology,” meaning Jesus is no more than a man, whereas they insist the Gospel of John presents a “high Christology,” meaning Jesus is both man and God, thus “a Godman.” I believed this for 22 years since that is what my church taught me. And churches teach this because... Read more

The U.S. Vetoes UN Recognition of a Palestinian State

Last updated on: April 18, 2024 at 11:50 pm By Kermit Zarley

Today, the U.S,. as a permanent member of the 15-member UN Security Council, vetoed a long-sought resolution by Palestinians for the Security Council to recommend that the 193-member UN General Assembly upgrade Palestinian observer status of the UN to present recognition of a Palestinian state. As a keen observer of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since the OPEC oil embargo of 1973, and an author of this subject, I have advocated for the past forty plus years that Palestinians are entitled to...

Did Polycarp Identify Jesus as “God”?

Last updated on: April 12, 2024 at 4:28 am By Kermit Zarley

0 Comments

Trinitarians have scoured the writings of church fathers and seized upon certain portions in them to show that those authors believed Jesus was God. Of course, this is well known of Nicene and post-Nicene fathers because the Catholic Church determined in 325 at its Nicene Council that Jesus was “very God of very God.” This meant that Jesus was just as much God as God the Father was, thus making Jesus equal in deity with the Father. But it is... Read more
