Bible prophecy is an often-misunderstood and abused subject. How should we approach the topic - is there something that can give us an overview? What about the millennium, a topic that divides many scholars of equal ability and equal respect for Scripture? Is there any common ground for us all? - E-bokEngelska, 2013

Guilt is so thoroughly engrained in religious culture that many people cannot imagine the gospel without a focus on guilt. They present the gospel as a transaction: you will be forgiven IF you accept the gospel. But Jesus already paid for your sins and you are already forgiven. There is no IF. Sin is forgiven, but it still messes up relationships. The gospel needs to focus on our relationships. - E-bokEngelska, 2013

In this lay-level commentary, Michael Morrison explores the details of Paul's letter to the Colossians and to Philemon.

In his letter to Philemon, Paul asks Philemon to treat a slave as a brother, and to send him to help Paul. - E-bokEngelska, 2012

Christians sometimes wonder why the Old Testament and New Testament are different. Some theologians stress similarity, but others stress differences. In this book, we examine every biblical occurrence of the Hebrew and Greek words for covenant. We also look at related subjects: "e;the law of Moses,"e; whether tithing is commanded for Christians, and the role of the Ten Commandments in Christian ethics - E-bokEngelska, 2014

Morrison, PhD, and Joseph Tkach, D.Min. - E-bokEngelska, 2013

"e;Exploring the Word of God"e; began in the mid 1990s. We were able to print a volume on the books of Moses, but the series was never continued, and the first volume has fallen out of print. However, we had a substantial amount of material written, and we added more in the intervening years. These materials have been edited and are on our website. We have also compiled our articles on Paul's letters and are happy to collect them as an e-book.Paul's letters are a key part of Christian theology and teaching. They not only show that the foundation of salvation is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, but also explain how salvation should affect the way we live with one another. One theme found throughout is the grace of God:* by grace God sent Jesus to be our Savior* by grace we are saved, not by any good works that we do* by grace the Spirit works in us, transforming us to be more like Christ* by grace we love one another* by grace we will be resurrected with Christ and be given immortality with him.Paul's letters show a church leader driven by his love for Christ, and driven by his love for the people of Christ. There is warm pastoral concern, and a firm insistence on truth. There are parts that are hard to understand, some parts that are easy to misunderstand, and large sections in which the message is clear and strong. Although we do not have comments written for every chapter, we will proceed through the letters chapter by chapter for a richly rewarding walk with the apostle.This e-book compiles the materials included in several smaller e-books - on Romans, the Corinthian letters, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians and Philemon, the Thessalonian letters, and the Pastoral letters. Same content, just collected together. - E-bokEngelska, 2014

In 1999, Ministry magazine, an Adventist publication, published a two-part editorial titled "e;Why the Seventh Day?"e; It's a good question. Michael Morrison responded with a letter of his own, praising the author for some points and questioning others. After a reply from the author, Morrison responded with an outline of why he does not think that the seventh day is not commanded any longer. There is also an essay about whether the Sabbath is a moral law, as Adventists claim, or a ceremonial law. How do we define "e;ceremonial,"e; and did Jesus treat the Sabbath as a moral law? Also included in this e-book is the long sermon by Joseph Tkach, then pastor general of the Worldwide Church of God. It was the "e;bombshell"e; sermon that announced that the WCG would no longer be a Sabbatarian church. This is followed by a couple of articles dealing with practical matters. - E-bokEngelska, 2014

In the books of Moses, God told his people to keep several annual festivals: Passover, Unleavened Bread, Pentecost, Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles. Are these festivals still required for Christians? We analyze the biblical evidence and conclude that no, we do not have to keep them. Then what were they for? We look at how these festivals had details that symbolized the work of Jesus Christ. Even so, not all details have symbolic meaning. - E-bokEngelska, 2014

Almost 2,000 years ago, a Jewish carpenter began to preach. He was popular with some people, but he made others angry. Officials said he was a threat to national security, and they arranged for his death. His only weapon was his message. The crowds seemed to like it, but "e;good"e; people didn't. He said it was about love—so why did anyone hate it? What was the message that got Jesus killed? Do we need it now? - E-bokEngelska, 2015

Some Christians think it is wrong to celebrate Christmas, since the date and some of the customs can be traced back to pagan holidays. Articles in this e-book examine the logic. The birth of Jesus is certainly an event worth celebrating, but is December 25 the "e;wrong"e; time to do it? The authors once thought Christmas was wrong, but have been persuaded by the evidence that it is wrong to forbid it. Articles about the incarnation and the birth of Jesus are in separate e-books. - E-bokEngelska, 2013

Christians have different views of the millennium of Revelation 20. Some believe it is occurring now; some believe it will occur before Christ returns, and some believe it will happen after he returns. Equally sincere, equally Bible-believing Christians disagree. Is it necessary for us to disagree? What do we have in common? - E-bokEngelska, 2015

When Christians read the Old Testament, they are often puzzled. They find many laws that seem to be part of Christianity, and yet they also find many laws that no one obeys. Laws of sacrifice, rituals and civil laws are mixed together with laws that tell people how to get along with others.How can a Christian know which laws to keep? Does the Bible tell us? This series of Bible studies explores this topic in detail. You will need to look up each of the scriptures you find listed, because we have not taken the space to quote them. But it is worth the time to learn about how we ought to obey our Creator and Savior. We'll begin with some general principles so that we lay a good foundation for discussing specific laws later in this study.First, we will establish from Scripture that Christians are expected to obey God. Then we will look at God's laws — starting in the time before Moses, then a closer look at the covenant made at Mt. Sinai. We will see how Jesus, Paul and the early church deal with the difference between old and new, then explore that difference with a few examples of laws that almost all Christians agree are obsolete.We then apply those principles to the seven annual Sabbaths, dietary laws, and the weekly Sabbath. We close by noting some of the commands the New Testament gives us, and end by emphasizing that, although Christians should obey God, our salvation is received on the basis of faith, not on the basis of our obedience. - E-bokEngelska, 2012

Sometimes Jesus talked about the kingdom of God as if it were already here, and sometimes he talked as if it were far in the future. Which is it, and how does it affect life right now? Another way to approach the question is to observe that Jesus preached about the kingdom of God, but his disciples preached about Jesus. Why this difference in focus, and why does it matter for us today? - E-bokEngelska, 2012

In 2004, Grace Communion International began a thorough examination of women in church leadership positions, such as pastors. A careful study was done in Scripture, with special attention to certain key NT texts. Both complementarian and egalitarian scholars sometimes push the evidence further than is warranted. With a cautious approach, we concluded that women may serve as pastors. - E-bokEngelska, 2012

Who can find a woman of such worth? The description given in Proverbs 31 is a composite - no one person has all these abilities - but all people can have the greatest virtue.

Two articles address the question of what roles women may have in the church today. - E-bokEngelska, 2012

Galatians, one of Paul's earliest letters, clearly states the gospel of salvation by grace without any need to keep the laws of Moses. But this does not mean that Paul does not care about how a Christian lives - he includes numerous instructions about it. Dr. Michael Morrison, Professor of New Testament at Grace Communion Seminary, explains how it all works together. Written for lay readers. - E-bokEngelska, 2012

Can we trust the Bible? How was it inspired, preserved and collected? How are we to read it today as conveying a message for us today? How do we deal with literature that was written in a far different culture, with various literary styles?
