It’s a form of Bible study and journaling whose acronym stands for: Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer.

We can see the connections to life and in that, this verse and the principles it contains become quite useful and life-related.

Learn what it truly means to be still before a sovereign God who fights for His people.

Some theologians will argue the author could have used hyperbole or metaphorical imagery, but if he chose to do so, he picked some rather odd images to describe mundane creatures.

On the other hand at school we learned about dinosaurs and discussions about the age of the earth as fact. Never did anyone ever say whether I should or shouldn’t as a Christian believe this information. Nor was I ever questioned if I believed one way or another. Even now in writing this article, I had to take a step back to understand why someone wouldn’t, or think they shouldn’t, believe in dinosaurs. I’ve considered whether there was mention of dinosaurs in the Bible (especially on Noah’s Ark), and if there wasn’t, did that mean God did not create dinosaurs? Or did He create animals, many of whom were gigantic, that are not still on the earth? The unfortunate reality about being on either side of the should/shouldn’t argument is that this focus could undermine someone’s faith in the Bible, and by consequence, their faith in Jesus.Photo credit: ©Getty Images/Divaneth-Dias Mon, 23 Feb 2026 15:45:00 -0500 2026-03-31T01:45:19-04:00 https://www.christianity.com/wiki/church/how-many-christian-denominations-are-there.html https://www.christianity.com/wiki/church/how-many-christian-denominations-are-there.html Peyton Garland https://www.christianity.com/author/peyton-garland/ Jesus never once asked the apostles or the early church to identify itself in a certain way as far as manmade organizations were concerned, so why are there so many Christian denominations today?
