Some will ignore the evidence even when it stares them in the face. When folks are captivated by particular ideologies and belief systems, and are held captive to particular narratives, they can have reality and facts staring them in the face, but they will still [...]

Just how are we guided into all truth? This is another passage that may not seem all that difficult to understand, but it can be misused and abused. Let me give it to you in context. Jesus is telling His disciples that He will soon [...]

A great saint with a great mind and a great heart has recently passed. I was not going to pen a piece on this great man’s passing, since a number of good pieces are already appearing on him and his ministry. The New Testament scholar [...]

We must read -- or re-read -- these three crucial volumes. Yes I know, calling a recent book -- or a recent anything -- classic can be a risky thing to do. After all, usually we reserve the term ‘classic’ for something that has stood [...]

One of the greatest needs for Christians today is to start using the minds that God gave us. The English humourist P. G. Wodehouse once said: “Some minds are like soup in a poor restaurant -- better left unstirred.” On a more serious note, the [...]

Considering the billionaire Musk, his acquisition of Twitter, and his Christian critics. Just because we do not share the same theology or anthropology does not mean we cannot support the good things that someone does. It seems to happen every time. You get some well-known [...]

Just what is the biblical view of government? Big topics these -- ones that this site has covered countless times. For example, I have over 1000 articles on politics, and nearly 4000 on Christianity. Many of them look at the biblical view of government, warn [...]

An important new resource on the threat of transhumanism. Nearly a century ago, Aldous Huxley penned his chilling and prophetic Brave New World. In this dystopian novel, he mapped out a future in which science and technology, instead of greatly helping mankind, became the undoing [...]

The American Revolution could not be more different from the French Revolution. ‘Revolution is revolution,’ some people might think. But in reality, while many can be quite similar, some can be quite different. Here I wish to speak about two very important revolutions, the French [...]

Statism and its war on God -- a closer look at twentieth-century atheistic political ideologies which sought to make the state supreme at the grievous cost of human freedom and lives. This is a follow-up piece to the earlier article I wrote on political religion. [...]

Statist religion and its war on Christianity. Because God exists, and because we are all made in His image, that means all people are inescapably religious. We all are made to worship, and if we refuse to worship the one true living God, we will [...]

There is no getting around it -- Christians are fools for Christ. The Kingdom of God is an upside-down kingdom. Those things that God values, cherishes and loves are the things the world spurns. And what the world celebrates and promotes are often the things [...]

Don’t expect any apologies anytime soon. Little did I or anyone else know three years ago that the world would soon come to a standstill. Little did I or anyone else know three years ago that such a thing as Covid even existed. And little [...]

The onslaught of diabolical darkness is escalating rapidly. We live in a time where evil is celebrated and promoted while godliness, holiness and goodness are treated with contempt. In times past it seemed that people preferred to do evil, but it was often under cover [...]

Is Jesus able to save even the most vile sinner? Warning: graphic content ahead. My question is this: are some people such horrific and evil sinners that they are beyond being saved? Are there such diabolical monsters out there who have committed such repulsive and [...]

This is why the left is so addicted to tearing things down. That the left prefers violence and destruction over reason and debate should be crystal clear by now. It seems the daily newspaper headlines give us really good indications of this. And the headlines [...]

How should we live in these changing times? How do we continue to bear witness to Christ's Gospel in the face of outright hostility and incomprehension? My theme is simple. As I have said so often over the years, the once-Christian West is no more. [...]

This new book is a much-needed challenge to our complacent Christianity. What does today's world ask of the church? We must be ready to respond in faith. I and many others have long been saying that the church in the West -- be it America [...]
