The terms &#8220;supersessionism&#8221; and &#8220;replacement theology&#8221; are used by Jews and heterodox Christians alike to signify the traditional teaching that the Old Covenant is no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, while researching an article, I had a bizarre experience. The thing shocked me into an interesting realization which, in turn, led me to write another article, namely, this one.
One reference I consulted for the article &#8220;The Second Eve &#8221; is the book Theotokos, A Theological Encyclopedia of the Blessed Virgin Mary  , by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Left Behind  is a popular series of books written by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, Evangelical Protestants brilliantly capitalizing on their “pre-trib” version of the “rapture theory.” This article is not about those books, but about the Catholic custom of venerating relics.
“Then why name the article that way?” you may ask. There are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“St. James’ Epistle is really an epistle of straw, for it has nothing of the nature of the Gospel about it.” — Martin Luther
That Martin Luther called the Epistle of St. James “an epistle of straw” is a well-known fact. Those just learning it should not be surprised when they read it, though. After all, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a doctrine so diabolical, so sinister and wicked that it deserves, in this author&#8217;s opinion, a unique claim to the name &#8220;The Devil&#8217;s Doctrine.&#8221; This teaching is sheer poison to the soul which embraces it. Like a spiritual AIDS, it kills the soul&#8217;s built-in immune system, the conscience, and it convicts the sinner [...]]]></description>

Does any conform to the clear, precise terms by which this Church of Christ is described in Holy Scripture: &#8220;the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ll never forget sitting at a table outside a café in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while a Pentecostal street preacher screamed his odd form of Christianity at the passing college students. He had the sort of rhythmic drive that Black Baptist and Pentecostal preachers cultivate, based on repeating one line over again, (e.g., Jesse Jackson’s &#8220;I [...]]]></description>
