Emphasis Preaching Journal

I once counseled an individual who had a very technical mind. He had spent over thirty years in the field of chemistry. He would tell me that understanding a formula was an easy thing for him to do. Two plus two equals four. A plus B minus C equals D. These he had no problem with whatsoever. But reading the Bible was a difficult thing for him to do. There are obvious contradictions in the Bible. A good Bible student knows that the gospel accounts of events in the life of Christ are not always presented exactly alike.
