Many try to tell us that Hitler and the Nazis were a bunch of conservatives, capitalists and probably even Christians. But the National Socialists were just that: socialists, who had modelled themselves on the secular Communist tyranny that preceded it. Marxism and fascism are totalitarian twins separated at birth.

So very often our politicians let us down. It has been known for millennia that two of the most corrupting, debilitating and destructive forces on earth are wealth addictions and power addictions. And often they go together. It is especially in the political arena that we find this deadly duo [...]

Christian conservatives are NOT welcome in the Liberal Party. If you know your Star Wars films, there is a scene in the 1977 movie where Luke Skywalker enters the Cantina with R2-D2 and C-3PO, only to be met by an angry bartender. This dialogue follows: “Hey! We don’t serve their kind here.” “What?” [...]

These quotes will encourage and convict – we need to hear them. The great preacher, teacher and revivalist Leonard Ravenhill (1907–1994) had a huge influence on millions of Christians. He even was involved in discipling folks like Keith Green. His prophetic ministry was a godsend [...]

Some of the great saints of recent times need to be spiritually bathed in more than merely written about. Reading their books and hearing their sermons is often far superior to just reading a written report about them. This is certainly true about the great [...]

Memorable quotes from Chesterton’s memorable book. OK, I confess. I have a copy of G. K. Chesterton’s 1908 classic Orthodoxy in my hands once again. It is never far from my side, and I revisit it regularly. I have often said that Chesterton is my all-time favourite author and Orthodoxy is my all-time favourite [...]

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936) is one of my favourite writers, and his 1908 volume Orthodoxy is one of my favourite books. He was an English writer, apologist, poet, essayist, and journalist. He was extremely prolific, having penned some 80 books, 400 essays, and many short stories, [...]

Being ‘true to yourself’ is often the worst thing you can do. Often music can capture the way a culture thinks and feels. It can reflect both helpful and not-so-helpful things. For example, a popular song performed by various artists in 1967 and 1968 was “I’ve Gotta Be [...]

Militant transgenderism kills – literally. People have died because of this insanity, and many more have been injured for life. And it brings about death in so many other ways. The very notion of womanhood is dying. Childhood is dying. Biology is dying. Truth is dying. Freedom [...]

In this morning’s reading, I came upon a really encouraging passage, as I often do. 2 Kings 20:5 states: “I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you.” This comes from the familiar story of King Hezekiah. Below I [...]

Why are our leaders obsessed with pushing the drug plague down our throats? Wow, this is just plain scary. Here are four recent headlines taken from one online newspaper in one city: the Herald Sun in Melbourne, Australia. They tell us all we need to know about life in Dictator Dan’s [...]

Some of you might be wondering if I am starting to lose it. ‘Praising disbelief? I thought you were a champion of belief and faith!’ Well, I certainly do stress the vital importance of a strong faith and solid belief. But that does not mean [...]

Yes, the Christian can have great joy amidst suffering. The Christian faith is a paradoxical faith. We all know many of these paradoxes: we get new life out of death; we only obtain glory via the cross; we fully become ourselves when we deny ourselves; [...]

None of us are anywhere close to perfection, yet God still chooses to use us. Here is a wonder of wonders: God in his matchless mercy and grace takes hardened sinners, saves them, and uses them for his purposes. But what is really incredible is the [...]
