Christianity -- Christian Living/Expert Profile

Expertise

I can answer questions about Christian doctrine. I have over twenty-two years of formal education and served in Christian ministry for almost thirty-five years. My specialties are in the areas of doctrine, hermeneutics, history, apologetics, and philosophy.

Experience in the area

I have a vast and broad education in all the areas of study needed to be able to correctly recognize what the writers of the Bible wanted their readers to understand. I have taught biblical doctrine for many years to thousands of people, many of whom exclaimed that I was the best of the best when it came to helping people be confident of what the truth really is.

What do you like about this subject?

I like knowing the truth about what the Bible teaches so that I never need to feel afraid that I am being lied to or defrauded. I like helping others to come to that level of assurance and knowledge.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I hope to convince people that we can know what the Bible actually teaches.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

One of the things that most people do not know is that the popular understanding of the term "faith" is not the understanding used by the writers of the Bible. The popular concept of "faith" is the same as that used by those people in the Bible who were worshippers of false gods and followers of false teachers.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

I think that the most controversial thing about this subject is that so many people are so unnecessarily wrong about the nature of Christian doctrine and the biblical God.
