When reading the second half of Acts recently, I was struck by the commitment of Paul and his companions to press on in ministry no matter the opposition they faced.

That statement, found in 2 Corinthians 5:7, is part of a lengthy discussion by Paul. It is, therefore, helpful to examine the larger context. The… Read More “We Do Not Lose Heart” — Ron Harper|

Ben the Amateur Exegete (henceforth AE) is an atheist who produces content on historical biblical scholarship. He recently put out a video challenging the report in Acts 16:37 and Acts 22:22-29 of Paul's Roman citizenship. To his credit, AE doesn't think the objections are conclusive and concedes that Paul certainly could have possessed Roman citizenship. However, he argues that the balance of evidence suggests that Luke "padded Paul's resume". AE draws his arguments from Calvin Roetzel's 199...| Think Christian Theism
