Important Update: Now Also Publishing on Substack



Dear Readers,

Thank you for your continued support of this blog. It has been a joy to share theological reflections, biblical studies, and apologetic resources with you here on this platform. The growth in readership, shares, and comments have been truly encouraging.

I’m writing to let you know that I’ve now launched a parallel publication on Substack, where all the same free content currently available on this blog will also be posted. This move is not a departure from Blogger, but an expansion aimed at reaching a broader audience and enhancing the accessibility of my work.

In addition to the free material, Substack will also feature a paid subscription option for those who wish to support this ministry. Paid subscribers will receive exclusive, in-depth, and academically rigorous articles, which will not be available elsewhere. These will include extended essays, research-based theological discussions, and other premium content designed to serve serious students of theology, pastors, and lay leaders alike.

I remain committed to making high-quality theological content freely accessible, and no current material will be placed behind a paywall. The subscription model simply provides a way for readers to partner with me in producing more extensive and resource-intensive work.

To explore or subscribe to the new Substack platform, please visit: https://substack.com/@irishbaptist?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=4bb1qq

Thank you again for your readership, encouragement, and prayers. Soli Deo Gloria.

Warmly in Christ,

J. Neil Daniels

Welcome to Theologia et Vita: Where Doctrine and Discipleship Meet

Welcome to Theologia et Vita: Where Doctrine and Discipleship Meet “Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers.” —1 Timothy 4:16 Welcome to Theologia et Vita , a space devoted to the integration of theology and Christian living. The title, Latin for “Theology and Life,” reflects a deep conviction: that sound doctrine is not an abstract pursuit reserved for the academy, but the lifeblood of faithful and fruitful discipleship. Here, the truths of Scripture are not merely studied; they are applied and lived. This blog emerges from a lifelong journey marked by God’s redeeming grace, a love for sound doctrine, and a burden to equip others to think clearly and live faithfully. Drawing from nearly three decades of study, ministry, and reflection from behind prison walls where Christ met and transformed me, I now write as a redeemed man in Christ, an aspiring evangelical theologian, and a disciple who seeks to hold...

The Remnant in Biblical Theology and Protestant Ecclesiology J. Neil Daniels  Nota Bene: An audio overview is available here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L-Q1DOA5qcYc3-E9FnPFyGvkFzSCSh_5/view?usp=drivesdk Introduction The concept of the remnant stands as one of the most significant theological motifs in Scripture, connoting divine preservation through judgment and the continuation of God’s redemptive purposes through a faithful minority. While the term remnant (Heb. שְׁאָר, she’ar ; also יָתַר, yātar ; פָּלֵט, pālēṭ ; Grk. σῶζω, sōzō ; λοιπός, loipos ; and καταλοίπω, kataloipō ) may refer broadly to material leftovers or survivors of disasters, it takes on heightened theological meaning when it denotes people preserved by divine grace and called to redemptive mission. Biblically, the remnant appears at moments of profound crisis, such as Noah’s family after the flood, Lot’s household after Sodom, the faithful Jews returning from exile, and the Church born amidst...

Doctrine and Life: Why Sound Theology Is Essential to Faithful Christian Living

Doctrine and Life: Why Sound Theology Is Essential to Faithful Christian Living J. Neil Daniels  “But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine.” —Titus 2:1 Too often in modern evangelical discourse, a false dichotomy is drawn between doctrine and practice, between theological precision and spiritual vitality. One is said to belong to the ivory tower, the other to the prayer closet. Yet Scripture knows no such division. The apostolic witness consistently unites orthodoxy (right belief) and orthopraxy (right living), insisting that what we believe about God inevitably shapes how we live before Him. This is not merely an academic concern. The health of the church depends upon it. Paul warns Timothy that “the time will come when people will not endure sound doctrine” (2 Tim 4:3), and the consequence is not simply error in thought, but moral and spiritual ruin. Theology is never neutral; all doctrine bears fruit, whether for righteousness or for destruction. Sound Doctrine: ...
