Dear Mr. Librarian

SEPTEMBER 19, 2026 Are we living in the Great Tribulation right now? Matthew 24's actual list of signs, four ways Christians have read when it applies, and Jesus's own repeated warnings against reading your own moment as the decisive one. AUGUST 23, 2026 Could anyone alive today be descended from Cain? Cain's line simply stops in Genesis 4; Seth's runs to Noah; and Genesis 9:19 says the whole earth was peopled from Noah's sons. What that adds up to — and the two questions it depends on. JULY 18, 2026 Did Isaac Newton write about the Bible? The scientist wrote more on Scripture than on physics — his Daniel & Revelation, his textual criticism of the Johannine Comma, his chronology, and his hidden anti-Trinitarianism, handled honestly. JULY 17, 2026 How long were the days of creation? The elastic Hebrew word yom, the sunless first days and the open seventh, and the ordinary-day, day-age, and literary-framework readings — with their pedigrees, no vote cast. JULY 15, 2026 Why does this translation say “Jehovah”? The name of God — the four letters behind “the LORD,” why almost every Bible hides it, and the choice between “the LORD,” “Yahweh,” and “Jehovah.” JULY 13, 2026 Was the Word "God," or "a god"? John 1:1 and the deity of Christ — the Greek of the missing article, “firstborn of all creation,” the Angel of Jehovah, and the whole argument laid out on both sides. JULY 10, 2026 Why isn't the Book of Enoch in this translation? The Masoretic source text, the canon question, the Ethiopian exception, and the Dead Sea Scrolls.
