The Church Is Failing Women - Part 4

Let’s look at Genesis:   Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.” 19 Now out of the ground the Lord God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name. 20 The man gave names to all livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper fit for him. (Genesis 2:18 - 20, ESV) Why are the animals not fit helpers? In part, because although created first, they are governmentally inferior to him just as Adam is to God.   As to the immanent Trinity, the only fit helpers for God are God’s own hypostases.    Strictly speaking, we are not helpers — we are honored participants in the story of eternity, not authors co-equal to God.    God has no co-equals outside Himself.   Thus, th...

God’s Existence, Attributes, Authority & The Ontology of Numbers

GOD is a triune personal spirit who, as to essence, is infinite, eternal, & unchangeable, & whose attributes are being (GOD is autotheos; God is a se), wisdom, power, justice, holiness, goodness, & truth.


  • Numbers exist independently of the human mind. 
  • Every integer is unique (aseity) 
  • Each number exists both independently & perichoretically
    • No two integers (numbers) express the exact same numerical value at the same time in the same way. 
    • Every number is infinitely compossible by an infinite set of previous integer (by addition) & via substraction of all subsequent numbers one from the other before it (ie 5 - 2 ‎ = 3 & 1 + 2 also = 3)
    • The intervening set of integers between 1, 2, 3 are required in order for those 3 numbers to exist.  
    • This intervening set of integers between 1, 2, & 3 make these 3 integers inescapably perichoretic.  Each & every number “contains” the integers preceding it, so the properties of any two neighboring integers overlap. 
  • Numbers & math constitute an infinite, immutable system. 
  • Numerical units, equations, formulae, etc. can be arranged in orderly fashion & expressed in words.   They can communicate via deployment as ciphers for whole ideas, like musical notes.   They also require a mind in which to inhere. Consequently, they exemplify the personal nature of God. 

As to Attributes: 

  • We use numbers to count, manage, & make wise (or stupid) decisions. 
  • We look at numbers as authoritative & binding to the conscience.   2 + 2 always = 4.    This is an authoritative truth that reminds us of God’s power & authority. 
  • As to justice, we use numbers as a means to balance weights & measures & calculate value in cases of injury, assault, theft, wrongful death, resource allocation, & much more. 
  • As to holiness, numbers are pure & absolute.
  • As to goodness, we use them to measure reward as well as reparation, which serves us in the process of reconciliation. 
  • As to truth , the value of a number follows the law of intentity. 

Thank you, may God bless us all each & everyone.  Go & sin no more.

Favorite Fallacies & Homosexuality

Thesis - The tradition bound view on homosexuality commits a number of logical, epistemic, & exegetical fallacies.  1-  Is - Ought Fallacy  - Human anatomy is said to provide    a blueprint for sexual ethics.  We examined this in my previous article.  A moral “ought” is derived from a physical “is.”  The disputant makes an illicit leap from what is to what ought to be. A classic example is the way some homosexuals defend their sexual ethics by appealing to their biology/genetics.  2 -  Vicious Circularity   - Human anatomy & physiology are raised to the status due a non-arbitrary epistemic warrant.    A non-arbitrary epistemic warrant must be necessary, reasoned, & principled.  In truth, the body is unnecessary to deduce sexual ethics. By way of contrast, God’s nature is definitionally necessary, insofar as God is a necessary being, &, since God is infinite, eternal, & unchangeable in being, w...

Covenant Theology In Outline Form (Part 1)

This is the general outline of a suzerain covenant. Shema/Preamble Historical Prologue General Stipulations Specific Stipulations  Renewal, Document Clause Witnesses Victory Statement This outline appears repeatedly in Scripture.    It makes for a helpful Study Guide.     We ought to pay careful attention when this outline appears, insofar as every major biblical covenant takes this form.    Here are some helpful thoughts. The Bible teaches the 3 uses of the Law (& Gospel).     Understanding the 3 uses of the Law helps us as we study Deuteronomy & the Sermon on the Mount.   As Moses delivered God’s Law from Sinai, so Yeshua reveals God’s Law with a Gospel slant from the Mount of Olives.  Deuteronomy :  Preamble (1:1-5) Historical Prologue (1:6 - 4:43) General Stipulations (4:44 - 11:32) Decalogue 5 : 1 - 21  Specific Stipulations (12:1 - 26:19) Renewal, Document Clause (27:1 - 30:20)  Witnesses ...
