The cover story, “Facts from the Bible” (pp. 8-10) of the Lenten issue of Celebrity World (April 17, 1995), supratitled “The Truth is.....” It featured many interesting facts found in the Holy Scriptures.

“Indeed, that is why we also thank GOD incessantly, because when you received GOD’s word, which you heard from us, you accepted it, not as the word of men, but, just as it truthfully is, as the Word of GOD, which is also at work in you believers.” – The First to the Thessalonians 2:13, New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures.

Straight from the Bible

On the cover: Melanie Trinidad

The article “Straight from the Bible” (pp. 8-9) is a collection of information about the Holy Scriptures. This was re-written with a title “Facts from the Bible” and published in Celebrity World April 17, 1995 issue. You can also read a much-improved write-up in my “In the Bible” blog.

“GOD said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.....” – Genesis 1:3, The Revised English Bible.

MOD Girl, March 25, 2005

The “Girl Trivia” section of MOD Girl March 25, 2005 issue featured a much abbreviated version of the “In the Bible” article that I submitted. I didn’t like it, because for me nothing in the Bible is trivial. It only included two items: “It is Not Delilah” that cut Samson’s hair, and “The Construction of Noah’s Ark.”

NOTE: See also “Noah, His Ark and the Great Flood: They are for Real” (Mr. & Ms., March 30, 2017) for the entire article, “Straight from the Bible” (Prime Weekly Edition, March 31, 1988) and “Facts from the Bible” (Celebrity World, April 17, 1995) posts.

 

“If something is crooked, you can’t make it straight. If something is missing, you can’t say it is there..... With much wisdom comes much disappointment; the person who gains more knowledge also gains more sorrow.” – Ecclesiastes 1:15 & 18, The Everyday Bible, New Century Version.

What the Bible Say About Homosexuality

Woman Today, February-March 2017
On the cover: Representative Geraldine Roman of  the First District of Bataan

 

My first article published in 2017, in Woman Today, February-March issue. Originally titled "Biblical Abomination." It was written after eight-division world boxing champ Manny Pacquiao's "encounter" with the LGBT community last year, when he supposedly compared members of the so-called "third-sex" to animals. In this article, I expound where Pacquiao (now senator) missed to cite in his arguments. That is, what the "Holy Bible (really) says..." about homosexuality (pp. 60-61).
