In 1976, American psychiatrist Karl Menninger gave an unintentional treatise on how concealed sin is killing the West. He declared, ‘We have lost our sense of history.’ With it, the West has lost any ‘sense of morality’, sin, responsibility, identity, and moral integrity. Sensing Truth [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

What does the Essendon Football Club debacle demonstrate about how the "virtue" of "tolerance" has changed in modern Western society? There has been a great deal written in the past day or two by a number of Christian commentators on the “resignation” of the new [...]

The overbearing weight of being governed by a government that has confused the Creator with the creature is inevitably unjust, corrupt, and self-destructive. Marx founded a poisonous ideology. One thing we’re big on in theology is literary criticism. The scientific process of taking a statement [...]

Nation First looks into civilisational collapse and concludes we are in it right now. Arab scholar Ibn Khaldun is probably not a name known among many in the West. However, he is one of the most interesting political theorists, largely owing to the fact that [...]

Our current parliament reveals more of its leftist secularist ideals, trampling on Australian history and applying dastardly double standards. If there is a word that substitutes for thought among our political class, it is ‘diversity’. Diversity is a kind of magical word that is summoned [...]

Australian Senate President Sue Lines is right to demand that the longstanding tradition of opening each day of federal parliament with the Lord’s Prayer be abolished. The words of Jesus are dangerous and politicians should be protected from hearing them lest they startle the country [...]

There is actually some great news in the Australian census regarding religion. Nominal Christians are truly falling away, leaving those on fire for Christ to carry on the standard. With "cultural Christians" no longer laying claim to be adherents of the faith, the message from [...]

Atheists are cheering at the drop in religious affiliation in our nation. However, with Christians becoming a minority, those who have abandoned faith in God have embraced faith in other things -- in modern ideologies. Australian census data released yesterday shows that -- for the [...]

Assessing the rhetoric of the God-haters. The arguments and attitude of secularists toward religion and religious adherents, in particular Christians, can be rather contrary and confusing. Those who hate God and religion -- especially Christianity -- like to pride themselves on how intelligent they are [...]

The chaplaincy programme in state schools throughout Australia is now under threat from the new Labor government. This will be to the detriment of student wellbeing. Chaplains provide vital support for our children, particularly those in disadvantaged circumstances. Jane Caro recently wrote an article expressing [...]

Human beings are not self-referential creatures. We have an innate desire for something transcendent, a reference point beyond ourselves. We are made for God. ‘Your days are numbered, Maverick. Your kind is heading for extinction.’ So said a US Admiral (played by actor Ed Harris) [...]

The modern attempt to situate all meaning in the self has led to an increase in anxiety and depression, along with a decline in resilience. Instead of basing our identity on God, we look elsewhere for our purpose and are inevitably disappointed. We’re the first [...]

We must return to a muscular and assertive faith, being unafraid to stand up and speak up for truth in the public arena and to those whom we encounter in daily life. Speaking the truth in love is necessary to win souls for God and [...]

Can human standards of morality be explained by the evolutionary mechanism? Or do we require a God Who established the laws of our universe? Our secular culture often uses evolution to explain why we’re moral creatures. It’s popularised by thinkers like evolutionary psychologist Jonathan Haidt [...]

A former atheist from China reflects on how post-Christian Australians have a similar mentality to her former comrades, not appreciating the great gift of faith in Christ which is their inheritance. When I was on parenting leave, our family of three went to live for [...]

A young woman from China, raised an atheist, shares her testimony of how she came to know God through faith and reason, a process that helps her minister to Australian youths today. This is the story of how I came to find my identity in [...]

Amid our modern demographic winter, people of faith continue to raise families, trusting that God will provide through all the calamities of a fallen world. On Christmas, Christians celebrate the birth of a child -- a child who changed the course of history. Each birth [...]

Yes, Christians can disappoint, but not Christ: It is quite common for those who reject Christianity to point to scandals, abuses and the like among Christians, or in the churches, or in Christian cultures or societies. They will point to such things and say they [...]
