The idea that man is fully in control of life is an illusion. Only God Almighty has sovereignty over each moment. Faith in Him carries us through mishaps and suffering, giving us peace in the midst of earthly turmoil. The real struggle throughout human history [...]

Not everything described in the Bible is an instruction for how we should act today as Christians. The Bible is a record of salvation history, of fallen humanity needing a Saviour; it shows terrible sins, but also God's template for human flourishing. A description of [...]

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been attacked by the Left on two fronts, regarding women's rights vis-a-vis transgender athletes, and how having healthy children is a blessing. While howling down their opposition, the Left tries to drown out their own hypocrisy. That the secular left [...]

The resurrection event changed human history forever, giving us the firm hope of redemption and everlasting life. We still face death and suffering in our fallen world, but our sorrows and grief will not last -- they will be replaced by joy and rejoicing. Many [...]

The resurrection of Christ is the great boost that a weak faith needs. There are ten accounts of people being raised from the dead in the Bible. Jesus is the most famous example of this of course, but the other nine are no less miraculous. [...]

Some Christians try to argue that international alliances are wrong. Are they correct? Or have they misinterpreted scriptural history? We are all capable of messy thinking in so many areas -- and we get plenty of it when it comes to politics, as well as [...]

Easter is not just about how we can get right with God, but how we can live for God. He works through us despite our weaknesses -- thus is His divine power displayed. Trust always in the Lord. Easter is of course a time when [...]

This new book on Scott Morrison is a must-read, especially ahead of the imminent federal election. Despite high hopes at the start of his term, our Prime Minister has proven a disappointment to his conservative Christian base. Now that Australians know when the next federal [...]

C.S. Lewis penned one of the great discussions of what love means. As Good Friday approaches, the day on which God demonstrated His great love for us, let us examine the various forms of love. Everyone talks about love, but very few really know what [...]

What is the difference between a church and a parachurch group? How do we manage the boundaries and overlap between the two? Most folks know what a church is -- well, at least they have in their minds an image of a biggish building with [...]

The silence of the lambs is a disgrace. To remain silent in the face of sin and destruction is folly and goes against our Christian mission. We must speak out against evil and lies. I recently saw someone’s post on social media lamenting the silence [...]

The Great Reset is real and is the most sinister threat we now face. Glenn Beck has written a mesmerising, well-researched tome on the global machinations eliminating our basic freedoms. Those who have been following the alarming agenda of the Great Reset -- if even [...]

Finally, a win for freedom of conscience and religion in Finland, in the long-drawn-out case of principled politician Päivi Räsänen. Prosecuted for a hate crime after stating Biblical views about marriage on social media, Räsänen has at long last been vindicated in a court of [...]

The plague of moral equivalence is still with us. Is it a tenable position? Or are civilisational fence-sitters dead wrong? For those not in the know, moral equivalence is a political concept that states that two sides of a given conflict are basically more or [...]

Thinking about right, wrong and justice in warfare. Just war theory, as formulated by Christian thinkers down the ages, outlines the principles by which a nation may legitimately enter a war. In a fallen world, war, the use of force, bloodshed, violence and aggression will [...]

Countering some severely misguided ideas about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Putinphiles begone! This article has been sitting around for at least a week now. I have been hesitant to post it for the simple reason that I am absolutely fed up with how some [...]

All powers and rulers are but nothing in the presence of the one true King. Despite the evil and suffering around us, we can have faith that Christ our King has come to establish His kingdom in the hearts of men, and is restoring all [...]

The Christian faith called us to be heroes, to lay down our lives for the sake of the Gospel and bring others into the Kingdom of God. When I returned from walking our dogs the other day, my ailing wife said, “You’re a hero”. Little [...]

Do Christians really believe in the spiritual realm? Are we aware of the larger reality around us, beyond this material plane? The other night on television I caught a little bit of a film that quite intrigued me. Sadly, a few days later I could [...]
