In December of 2011, the Lord drew me to study the seven feasts that Israel observed (see Leviticus 23). Throughout 2012, I studied the feasts off and on. My church also let me teach about each feast as it came up on the calendar. Gradually, I organized my notes into a new booklet, and I’m…

The Supremacy of Jesus
This post was written at the request of reader, Mitch Smith—https://thevoiceofone.org/2013/03/09/suggestion-box/#comments. Thanks, Mitch! *** Revelation is nothing if not a book about the supremacy of Christ. From start to finish, it is full of images that communicate both the fact and the spirit of His supremacy. What do…
Suggestion Box
I’m going to step out here and do something I’ve never done before. This is a question for readers of The Voice of One: Is there anything you’d like me to write a post about? This is definitely a risky move because this post could easily hang out there, flapping in the cyber-wind, with nary…
The Need for Ante-creation: Jeremiah 4 & 5
Picture by Patrick Murphy: http://inspiredsketch.blogspot.com/ An excerpt from my booklet entitled, “Jeremiah: Fire Shut up in My Bones.” *** “I looked at the earth, and it was formless and empty; and at the heavens, and their light was gone…I looked, and there were no people; every bird in the sky had flown away. I looked,…
Something New (Sort of )
I’m happy to announce something new at The Voice of One. Well, sort of new, anyway. On the far left of the blog are links to booklets I have written. That isn’t new. What is new is that they are now in PDF format. Each booklet contains two links: one for reading on your computer,…
Interview with Bryan Halferty about “The Unitive”
Bryan Halferty is a guy I’ve known for…about 13 years. During that time I’ve watched him evolve from a wet-behind-the-ears college kid to a family-man. He’s also a minister with a deep desire to see the church and the world experience Jesus as fully as possible. One avenue through which Bryan connects with people is…
Who Is When…?
Recently, a friend sent me a link to a video called, “An Evening of Eschatology.” (As the video points out, “eschatology” is just a $2.00 word for “last things” or the end of all things). In the video, John Piper moderates a discussion between Jim Hamilton, Sam Storms, and Doug Wilson, each of whom represents…
To Obey Is Better than Sacrifice (Or Is It?)
Drawing by Patrick Murphy: http://inspiredsketch.blogspot.com/ “To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams” (1 Sam. 15:22). This can be a confusing verse. Read one way, it seems God is saying it is better to obey than to sin and need forgiveness. This reading has a certain…
Come to the Tree. Pray to Die.
Who can forget Elijah’s famous showdown with the prophets of Baal? This was probably the OK Corral of the Old Testament. Elijah went toe to toe with hundreds of false prophets and publicly humiliated them. They spent all day crying out and cutting themselves without so much as a peep from their god. One short…
Perfected in Weakness
“He believed in God, who gives life to the dead and calls things into existence that do not exist. […] He considered his own body to be already dead (since he was about 100 years old) and also considered the deadness of Sarah’s womb, without weakening in the faith” (Rom. 4:18, 19). God promised Abraham…
