Can the deception get any worse than this? Satan is real. Sin is real. The fall is real. And deception is real. But too many folks do not believe in any of these realities. As a result, they end up fully falling victim to them. [...]

Very wise words by Lewis on the place of emotion. Because C.S. Lewis was such a deep thinker and so widely read, he was able to offer incisive and wise words about all sorts of things, including those things he may not have yet experienced. [...]

How do you react when coming upon great evil? A few days ago, I viewed part of some American true crime program on TV. The gist of it was this: a woman with four young children conspired with her lover to kill her husband and [...]

How should we live in the face of impending doom? Just how should we live if we thought our present way of life was all but finished, with a dark and uncertain future just around the corner? If we knew almost certainly that everything was [...]

Os Guinness discusses the lateness of the American hour. Nothing lasts forever. People come and go, and nations come and go. Sadly, once free, democratic and prosperous nations can lose all that and devolve into something much different. The old saying holds: ‘Eternal vigilance is [...]

Climate lockdowns are now following on from Covid lockdowns. Here is a truth you must never forget: the same power-hungry control freaks who wanted to lock down the whole world to keep us ‘safe’ from Covid are also wanting to lock down the whole world [...]

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 [...]
