Melchizedek Part 1

Posted on July 25, 2026 by ehurst

For once, I’m not walking with Heiser very closely. I’ll be paralleling his podcast series on Melchizedek, but relying on studies from other authors. The difficulty I have here is that, if you really need footnotes and references, I no … Continue reading →

Responding to Questions

Posted on July 13, 2026 by ehurst

Spiritual Graduation

Posted on May 4, 2026 by ehurst
