Genesis - Part 05 - Relief from the Curse
By Craig Safar · October 6, 2026Humanity longs for relief. Lamech names his son Noah ("rest" or "comfort"), hoping he will ease the curse's burden (Gen. 5:29). Yet Noah, for all his faithfulness, could only bring judgment through the flood — the curse remained afterward (Gen. 8:21). Noah was a glimpse, not the answer.

Romans - Part 11 - Unity in Christ
By Craig Safar · August 26, 2026Paul's words are for us (both weak and strong believers) to not judge (fight, argue, discourage) one another over such things. The judgement here is not general judgement, rather it is about such things that aren't necessarily "unChristian" to do especially if it draws us closer to God. For example, if a weaker believer thinks eating meat separates them from God, a stronger believer shouldn't force them to eat meat to disprove them. The better approach is the for the stronger believer to disciple and mentor the weaker believer until they better understand Scripture to know that the issue isn't the meat itself but rather our hearts towards God.

Romans - Part 10 - God's Sovereignty
By Craig Safar · August 15, 2026The "good" mentioned is the ultimate good, our salvation and final glorification (complete freedom of sin, suffering, and death; perfect likeness of Christ; and eternal fellowship with God). God does not take actions outside of His character, but He is not limited by sin's influence either. Here are a few things God can do with the bad in the world for good: He can use it to deepen our dependence on Him, to produce spiritual maturity, to expose and turn us from sin, to equip us to comfort others, to advance the gospel, and to display His glory.

By Craig Safar · July 24, 2026A person’s heritage or upbringing does not automatically make them a child of God, as true belief relies on divine calling rather than family legacy. Paul explains that God’s plan expanded beyond Israel to extend mercy to all people, calling believers to share the gospel faithfully until His grand design is complete.
