What Is “The Messianic Secret”?

Last updated on: June 2, 2022 at 11:03 am By Kermit Zarley

Jesus was a citizen of Nazareth in Galilee. Yet, like any righteous Jewish man, he attended many of the feasts at Jerusalem. Once, he was at the Feast of Dedication and walking in the temple. We read in the Gospel of John, “So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, ‘How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly'” (John 10.24 NRSV). This question, about whether Jesus was the Messiah, reflects... Read more

Last updated on: May 29, 2022 at 5:48 pm By Kermit Zarley

Sam Burns came from seven strokes back of the lead to shoot a five-under par 65 today to win the PGA Tour’s Charles Schwab Challenge golf tournament at Colonial Country in Forth Worth, Texas. But his regulation play of 72 holes only got him in a playoff with current Masters champion Scottie Scheffler. Burns bested Scheffler on the first playoff hole of their sudden-death match on the par-four 18th hole by holing a 38-foot birdie putt from off the back... Read more

Does God’s Goodness Need Defending Due to Evil Angels?

Last updated on: May 28, 2022 at 7:39 pm By Kermit Zarley

Religious people usually have a theological framework upon which they base their belief in some kind of worldview, even if they’re not very aware of it. It certainly is true of Christianity. Many Christians adopt some type of systematic theology upon which they base their religious beliefs. And in the case of Christians and some religious Jews, they view their sacred text, the Bible, in this way as well. It thus becomes difficult for especially Christians to read the... Read more

China’s Pride in Refusing mRNA Vaccines for COVID-19 Is Devastating

Last updated on: May 26, 2022 at 6:02 am By Kermit Zarley

The Associated Press reported yesterday that China approved over two years ago the mRNA vaccine made by Pfizer and BioNTech, but it still refuses to administer the shots due to its own pride in trying to produce such a vaccine itself, which it has not been able to do. Fosun Pharma had agreed to distribute the Pfizer vaccine to China. The AP article states: “Now health experts say that delay — a result of putting politics and national pride above... Read more

Trump Fears Getting Creamed with a Pie

Last updated on: May 26, 2022 at 12:28 am By Kermit Zarley

No joke! I’ve blogged about some of Donald Trump’s phobias. He readily admits that he has at least one, that he is a clean freak. Recently, it became more known that he has a phobia for people throwing fruit at him. He said in one of his political rallies, in 2015, that “doing fruit,” meaning throwing it, is “dangerous stuff.” He further said, “If you see someone getting ready to throw a tomato, just knock the crap out of them,...

Sergiy Kyslytsya Has the Best Line This Year

Last updated on: May 24, 2022 at 11:21 am By Kermit Zarley

Ukraine is fighting for its life. The U.S., the European Union, and NATO are standing with Ukraine, supporting it in every means possible without sending soldiers and airplanes to attack the Russians because they are trying to avoid a nuclear war, which Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Foreign Minister Lavrov have threatened. President Putin gathered 150,000 Russian soldiers on Russia and Belarus’ border with Ukraine last year and early this year. He constantly said all along that it was... Read more

Justin Thomas Nightmare Shank to Win the PGA Championship

Last updated on: May 23, 2022 at 9:48 pm By Kermit Zarley

Justin Thomas won the PGA Championship yesterday–one of the four major tournaments in world professional golf–and he did it by coming from seven strokes behind starting that last round. But the really crazy thing about it was that he COLD SHANKED his ball on the 218-yard, par-three, sixth hole with his mid-iron, and the ball, of course, was TEED UP! It teed him off so badly that he released the club near the end of his follow-through, with the club... Read more

Justin Thomas Wins His Second PGA Championship

Last updated on: May 22, 2022 at 5:43 pm By Kermit Zarley

Long-hitting superstar Justin Thomas came from seven strokes back today to win his second PGA Championship, and thus his second major, at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Leader Mito Pereira of Chile, South America, collapsed on the last hole in regulation play with a double bogey six to finish one stroke back. But for Thomas, the early leader in the clubhouse with a three-under par 67, it still wasn’t over. Will Zalantoris, the 36-hole leader, tied Thomas for... Read more

Pereira Takes Three-Stroke Lead into Final Round in PGA Championship

Last updated on: May 22, 2022 at 2:40 am By Kermit Zarley

Mito Pereira–a PGA Tour rookie from Chile who went to college at Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas–birdied the last hole today for a one-under par 69 and a 54-hole total of nine-under par 201 to take a three-stroke lead in the PGA Championship at Southern Hills, Tulsa, Oklahoma, with one round to go. Until Saturday, the weather in Tulsa had been warm and nice. But the cold wind blew in Saturday to dampen tournament spirits, especially those of Tiger Woods.... Read more
