Using A Theological Dictionary for Word Studies – You may enjoy this article from Patrick Schreiner as he looks at how to use a theological dictionary.

Why Is the Number of the Beast 666? – TGC asks the question of Greg Beale. And speaking of Beale, Westminster Books has his new, abbreviated commentary on Revelation discounted today.

The Shadow Eclipsed by the Substance – You will enjoy reading Erik’s meditation on the cross of Christ.
