Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 4003 Christians sometimes speak of being filled with the Spirit as though it were an elusive spiritual state achieved only by the most devoted believers, or conversely, as though it is synonymous with emotional intensity in worship. Neither captures what the New Testament is actually talking about. The idea of Spirit-filling is important, biblical,…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 3009 The Gospels give us only glimpses into Jesus’ childhood, yet those glimpses raise fascinating questions. How did the incarnation work in practice during those early years? Did the baby Jesus know He was God while lying in the manger? Did the toddler Jesus understand the Trinity? What was going on in His mind…
Reading Time: 5 minutesQuestion 3005 The hypostatic union is one of the most profound doctrines in all of Christian theology.

Far from being a…

It is not enough to know about Jesus; you must know…
Reading Time: 8 minutesQuestion 9000 See also YouTube video at the end explaining why we should be baptised. Believer’s baptism is the baptism by immersion in water of those who have personally trusted in the Lord Jesus for salvation.
