I believe that every word of the Bible is God-Breathed. This blessed book is the foundation of truth for faith and practice. If you ask this volunteer a question you will receive an answer from the Bible that is based upon a litteral, normal interpretation, taking into account the grammar and culture of the time.

Experience in the area

I have been in the ministry for almosat 20 years. During this time I served as youth pastor, assistant pastor, counselor, and Senior Pastor. Currently I serve as a Senior Pastor for an independent fundamental Baptist Church in New England.

Publications

Education/Credentials

BS in Bible from Baptist Bible College, Clarks Summit, PA

What do you like about this subject?

I am in awe every time I come in contact with the Word of God! I have been counseling people for over 20 years, and I have not yet found a problem that God's Word could not help solve.

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

It is my goal to leave this world having pointed many lost souls to the truth of Salvation by Grace through Faith alone in the finished WOrk of Jesus Christ.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Did you know that many modern Bible translations have left out or changed key verses that support such orthodox teachings as the Virgin Birth of Christ and His Diety?

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

I believe in absolute truth! If many believe differently, we cannot all be right! There is absolute truth in the religious real as there is in the scientific realm. Denying the theory of gravity cannot make you fly.
