  • Jude (1): Angels

    Jude (1): Angels
    Jun 15 2025
    Jude mentions angels three times, and these are considered to help our understanding of these creatures of God. There is their rebellion (which raises questions about Genesis 6 and the Nephilim) which brings judgement on them. There is then the dispute between Michael and Satan, where we learn that the office—but not the person—of Satan is to be respected, and this is to be reflected in respect for all authority. Finally, the role of angels in judgement is noted as they accompany Christ when he returns.

  • Spirits and Magic at Ephesus

    Spirits and Magic at Ephesus
    Jun 2 2025
    The pagan Ephesians see "magic" done by Paul in the name of this Christus figure, and some see that these miracles were categorically different from their own hit-and-miss methods using incantations. The next incident shakes them to the core. Jewish grifters, self-styled exorcists, copy the practice of their pagan magician neighbours by stealing the latest, most powerful name about. The new magic word is "Jesus", and they include it in their ritual of exorcism. Unfortunately, the evil spirits will not be commanded by the recital of magic spells, even if the name of Jesus is included. The devils respond only to authority greater than theirs, and only Christ and his agents have it. The evil spirit knows Jesus personally, and his fellow demons have been banished by Paul, but this bunch? It uses its host to attack the seven Jewish fakers forcing them to leave utterly humiliated and ruined. For some, this is too much evidence of the power of Christ to ignore. They repent, and in an outward expression of it which was both practical and symbolic, they torch perhaps more than £2m in magician books and saleable spells. The word of God continued to change people, cities and entire regions.

  • The Apollo Mission

    The Apollo Mission
    May 26 2025
    Apollos, a name rooted in "Apollo", was a highly educated believer from the great centre of learning: Alexandria. He no doubt used the famous library of 700,000 books until they were burned by Muslims. Still, he came to the church armed with both a Jewish and Greek education. Apollos appears on the scene dramatically, making a big impression. He would become a leading figure in the worldwide church, and many believe he authored the book of Hebrews. His familiarity with the scriptures, boldness, and fervency, made him a great example to Christians in general and preachers of righteousness in particular.
