Today justice is not always found, but full justice IS coming. A million times a day there are acts of injustice taking place, be they greater or lesser acts. Most people have an innate dislike of injustice, and a strong desire for justice. Here I [...]

We all have a long way to go in mastering the Bible and doctrine. Most folks have heard of the expression found in my title. Sometimes the term “rose-coloured glasses” is also used. It refers to how some folks prefer to look at everything in [...]

The new and now complete three-volume biography of C. S. Lewis is a must-read. Given that the last of a three-volume biography of Lewis is now available, let me speak to this terrific set. I refer to the just completed trilogy of works by Harry Lee [...]

Tremendous advice from the great C.S. Lewis. When one thinks of Christian apologetics, the name of C.S. Lewis instantly springs to mind. He certainly was one of the most important and influential apologists of last century, and his impact is still being fully felt today. [...]

The coming out of Dr Phelps continues to make headlines. There has been a fair amount of fallout from a news story that appeared the day before yesterday. It had to do with a leading Australian doctor who has begun to call out the Rona [...]

The secular left West is becoming ever more similar to communism. Christianity was one of the main driving forces of the West. For many centuries, they were in many ways synonymous. But as Christianity weakened, so too did the West. Thus what can be called [...]

We must stop worshipping or demonising public figures. Here is a truth you can count on: in this life, we are all a mixed bag. You will find no purely good people and no purely evil people. We all do some good things and some [...]

The desire to be left alone is quickly being denied us by the ever-expanding state. If you have ever seen the first of the Rambo films (First Blood), you will know that a Vietnam War vet who just wants to be left alone is harassed [...]

Politicians come and go -- but God is still working out His purposes. We read in Daniel 2:21 that God “changes times and seasons; He removes kings and sets up kings.” This of course happens all the time. Leaders come and go. This week we [...]

The Big Brother war on farming should horrify all of us. How many times does it have to be said? Ignore history, and you WILL end up repeating its mistakes. When we see questionable things happening today that were done previously in recent history, we [...]

You and I are under constant scrutiny. We are being watched. No, I am not here talking about the growing surveillance state in the West, doing its best to keep up with Communist China in keeping tabs on our every movement. Instead, I want to [...]

Thoughts on scrutinising well-known public figures, such as Jordan Peterson, and holding them to Christian standards, when they are evidently not Christian. It seems to happen quite often: a bunch of articles or podcasts or interviews by Christians will appear, all having to do with [...]

The left is in a real quandary over Qatar, where their LGBT activism clashes with Islam. To chronicle the hypocrisy and double standards of the left is a full-time job, and my site has tried its best to keep up with it all. It is [...]

As always, Chesterton offers us sage advice. No, I don’t mean we should seek to sit on the fence where G.K. Chesterton used to live. I am not even sure if there is a fence there. What I am referring to here is a very [...]

We have so much to learn from the amazing life of Elisabeth Elliot, particularly regarding obedience and suffering. I recently revisited a 2020 volume by Ellen Vaughn. It is the authorised biography of Elisabeth Elliot. With all the bad news coming out of so many [...]

Now we have “churchmen” suggesting Jesus could have been transgender. We have had it all before of course: Jesus the Marxist; Jesus the Muslim; Jesus the homosexual; Jesus the hippy; Jesus the Socialist; Jesus the Greenie. The list never ends. And it was only a [...]

Freedom is being thrown away in the West while being fought for in Communist China. The contrast could not be greater: while sheepish and servile crowds are well on the road to serfdom, happily voting in dictators in Victoria, in China, the crowds are bravely [...]

Bad news in Victoria -- yet, though earthly governments may fail, we look to our eternal hope in the Lord. Saturday night was not a good one for Christians, for conservatives, and for those who value freedom, family and other key values. The short story [...]

To understand the diabolical nature of the Davos deities, read this book. This is not the first book to appear in recent times critiquing the Great Reset, Klaus Schwab, the World Economic Forum, and related matters. Some of these volumes I have already reviewed. But [...]

There is a lot of encouraging material to be found in this chapter of Scripture. We are called to share the Gospel with others. The Apostle Paul told us that ‘all scripture is… profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness’ [...]
