What actually is fire? (8 min)
In a “don’t try this at home” spectacular, a BBC hosts tries to figure out what actually makes up fire. And the wonder of it is, there’s kind of nothing to it.

How could 10,000 dinosaurs end up in just 1 meter of mud?
“There is a layer of mudstone that is 1 meter (3 feet) thick and it stretches for 80-acres. That’s really shallow and really wide. But it’s filled with over a million bones. The big bones are at the bottom and the little bones are at the top, having been ‘graded’ through a gravity-sorting process.”

Can Satan perform miracles?
What Pharaoh’s magicians pulled off in Exodus 7–8 has always had me wondering about the limits on what Satan can do.

Are images of Jesus violations of the Second Commandment?
On top of the cases for and against detailed in the articles above, I’m going to add an additional thought: if you don’t know one way or the other, you shouldn’t do it.

Jay Adams explains that thought further in his article “What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do.”
