Few doctrines have shaped the identity and prophetic worldview of the Armstrong Church of God movement as profoundly as British Israelism — the belief that the Anglo‑Saxon peoples are the modern descendants of the “lost ten tribes” of Israel. Though often rebranded as “the identity of modern Israel”  or “The United States and Great Britain in Prophecy,”  the doctrine remains foundational to the Living Church of God (LCG), the United Church of God (UCG), the Philadelphia Churc

Earlier this month, on Good Friday (April 3rd, 2026), I visited a Shroud of Turin exhibit here in the Houston area—and the experience has stayed with me ever since. Standing before the life‑sized image of a crucified man, I was struck by how closely the details align with everything the Gospels describe about the suffering, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The wounds. The scourging. The crown of thorns. The pierced wrists and feet. The side wound. The burial p

For many Christians, the word Easter  has become synonymous with the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Churches decorate sanctuaries with lilies, families gather for special meals, and children hunt for brightly colored eggs. Yet beneath these familiar customs lies a deeper question that deserves honest reflection: Does the terminology we use reflect the biblical story, or does it obscure it? This question is not about semantics. It is about Scripture, clarity, and the continuity

Every year during Holy Week, Christians around the world reflect on the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. For many, this includes Good Friday and Easter Sunday. For others — including many in the Armstrong Church of God community, Hebrew Roots, and various Torah‑observant groups — this same week is marked by Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and the Feast of Firstfruits. And every year, a familiar teaching resurfaces:  that Jesus was not crucified on Fri

Blaise Bailey’s Space Exploration and Jesus: A Universe of Divine Possibilities  is an ambitious attempt to explore how Christian faith might speak into humanity’s expanding presence in the cosmos. The book raises important questions, offers imaginative parallels, and ultimately lands on a hopeful vision of Christianity’s role in a multiplanetary future. Yet it also contains moments where theological precision becomes crucial — especially when Scripture is stretched beyond it

Every new year invites us to pause, reflect, and realign our lives with the things that matter most. For me, 2026 begins with a profound sense of gratitude. After seven years of perseverance, prayer, and late‑night study sessions, I completed my Master of Theological Studies at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. This milestone didn’t just close a chapter — it opened space for new ones. With seminary behind me, I now step into 2026 with renewed clarity and purpose. My

B. H. Carroll Memorial Building, the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary's main administrative building For years, I carried a desire to understand my faith more deeply. That desire eventually led me into a seven‑year seminary journey that challenged me, strengthened me, and reshaped the way I see God, the Church, and my calling. On December 5th, 2025, I graduated with a Master’s in Theological Studies from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary—a milestone that repr

Sex Is an Adult Decision Anytime a man or woman chooses to have sex, they are making an adult decision. One possible outcome of that decision is pregnancy. To call pregnancy a " crisis " or " unplanned " is misleading. Pregnancy is not an accident—it is the natural result of the act of sex itself. Responsibility begins the moment the choice and decision to have sex is made. Prevention and Responsibility If someone wants to avoid pregnancy, they must take precautions—whether t

Faith and the Final Frontier For centuries, humanity has gazed at the heavens with awe and wonder. From the shepherds who watched the night sky in Bethlehem to the astronomers who mapped the stars, there has always been a deep connection between faith and the cosmos. Yet today, some Christians view space exploration with skepticism—believing it distracts from God or even challenges the authority of Scripture. At the same time, many in the scientific and space communities see
