The Truth in the Blending of Lines

Where I'm honest with you
Some of what you'll read here is supported by mainstream scholarship and peer-reviewed research. Some of it is my conviction — what I believe Scripture and the evidence point to, but which the academic world does not accept. I've marked which is which. The rows marked ✗ above are conviction, not established fact. Test everything like a Berean: "These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so" (Acts 17:11, KJV).
"And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight." — Numbers 13:33 (KJV)
