HOT STUFF–Phoenix, Arizona!

Last updated on: August 1, 2023 at 1:06 pm By Kermit Zarley

I live in Scottsdale, Arizona. It is located immediately adjacent to Phoenix, the sixth largest city in the U.S. This place just registered the hottest month–July–for a city in the entire world since temperature records have been kept. UGH!. Here are the facts: Phoenix’s average temperature for this July was 102.7 degrees, taking into account average daytime high of 114.7 degrees and overnight low of 90.8. That’s every minute of everyday–an average of 102.7! The worst part is not the... Read more

PGA Tour Installs Tiger Woods on Its Policy Board

The PGA Tour is in an unprecedented state of chaos that began last year when Saudi-backed upstart LIV Golf tour emerged to challenge the king of pro golf tours in the world. LIV did it mostly by offering huge sums of money to mostly the top star players on the PGA Tour to also compete in LIV’s new tour schedule. It was eight tournaments last year. They had a different format, being conducted only three rounds-days, instead of the standard... Read more

Donald Trump’s Legal Troubles Deepen

From the time that Republican Donald Trump announced his campaign for the U.S. presidency, in mid-2015, until he exited the White House on January 20,2021–a period of about 5.5 years–I posted on my Kermit Zarley Blog regarding Trump the politician about 350 times. Yeah, you could say I was obsessed! But it was largely because of the Bible. I often cited biblical proverbs or wisdom sayings of Jesus that were prophetic and applied them to Donald Trump. After his presidency,... Read more

Jesus’ Virgin Birth Is Not Alone

The Bible says Jesus of Nazareth was conceived unnaturally, thus a miracle called “the virgin birth.” It is more accurately “the virginal conception,” though this might be somewhat nitpicking. Why? The term virgin birth is about Jesus’ birth, meaning Mary was a virgin when she gave birth to Jesus; whereas, the miracle to which it refers concerns Jesus’ conception, thus not his birth. The reason Christians decided on the term “virgin birth” seems to be that it was easier to... Read more

Hating Brothers and Sisters in Christ

I was a Trinitarian Christian for twenty-two years until I read myself out of that belief in the Bible. That is, I came to believe the Bible does not say God is three persons, as in the doctrine of the Trinity that was not believed until it was formulated in the latter fourth century. And along with that, therefore, I came to believe that Jesus never said he was God and that the Bible does not teach that he was... Read more

Dr. James Tabor is a friend of mine who holds the position of Chair of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. (His colleague there is the well-known Dr. Bart Ehrman who specializes in textual criticism of the New Testament with six New York Times bestsellers.) Dr. Tabor’s endorsement of my book, The Restitution: Biblical Proof Jesus Is Not God, appears first among others on my book’s back cover. It says, “A mortal wound to the doctrine... Read more

Christians Fowler and Langer Win on Both PGA Tours Today

The Christians had a big day today in American pro golf. Rickie Fowler is a regular member of the PGA Tour Bible Study, Bernard Langer is a regular member of the Champions Tour Chapel, and they won on their respective tours. Crowd favorite Rickie Fowler lost the U.S. Open two weeks ago. But he solved his four-year absence from the winner circle today by holing a twelve-foot birdie putt on the first extra hole in a three-man, sudden-death playoff to... Read more

The Morality of the PGA Tour-LIV Golf Pact Now Looks Even Worse

It does not look like the PGA Tour I used to know. When we had something big that might happen, players meetings were always held with transparency to inform members of the details and then vote on it to at least let the committee or policy board know what the players thought about it. That is not what has been happening. This new arrangement between the PGA Tour and the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) that has transpired recently as... Read more

How Did Jesus Know God Gives Him His People?

Last updated on: June 25, 2023 at 10:53 pm By Kermit Zarley

Christians are taught that Jesus is not only 100% man, but also 100% God. (I was too and believed this for 22 years.) It is largely because such determinations were made by church fathers at the ecumenical councils of the Catholic Church during the 4th and 5th centuries. I believe this was a huge mistake to have decided that Jesus is God, and Christians have suffered from it ever since in their understanding of Jesus. But to then make... Read more
