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
Scottie Scheffler keeps on proving he is the #1 pro golfer in the world for the past two years. This morning, he finished the last three holes of his final round in the weather-delayed, PGA Tour’s RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, with a par, par, and bogey to shoot a 19-under par 265 total to win by three strokes over Sahith Theegala, who finished alone in second place, and four strokes over...

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
Scottie Scheffler–the #1 pro golfer in the world–made a scrambling par with a one stroke water hazard penalty on the par five 15th hole today in the RBC Heritage at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, to protect his five stroke lead at 20-under par total as play was then ended for the day at 7:45 PM ET. Play had been suspended hours earlier due to rain and lightning. At that time, Scheffler had a four stroke lead at 19-under par... Read more
Scottie Scheffler–the #1 pro golfer in the world the past two years and winner of last week’s Masters Tournament–continued his hot streak today by shooting a blazing 8-under par 63 at the PGA Tour’s RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, to take a one stroke lead into tomorrow’s last round with a logjam of players behind him within striking distance.

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...

Scottie Scheffler–twenty-seven year old PGA Tour golfer and #1 player in the world–held off several challengers today on the front nine and solidly closed the deal on the back nine with a four-under par 68, the lowest score of the day, to win the Masters Tournament by four strokes over twenty-four year old Ludvig Aberg of Sweden at the famed and beautiful Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. It was Scheffler’s second Masters win, his first being in 2022.... Read more

After the leaders completed the front nine, five players were tied for first place at six-under par for the tournament. That made for a lot of excitement. Scheffler was one of them. But then on...

DeChambeau led the tournament yesterday with a blistering 7-under par 65, and Scheffler was alone in second place with a 66. Both are major tournament winners. Scottie, presently the #1 player in the world, won the... Read more
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
