Billy Graham was a man who felt the hand of God and the power of the Holy Spirit mightily. He had a deep awareness of the continual and pressing need for the Church to submit to Christ’s Lordship in order to experience spiritual revival. In [...]

An excellent exegesis of how Scripture speaks to us of the conditions in which revival may flourish, as well as what may impede the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Amongst many conservative Protestants today -- be they Reformed, Evangelical or even Pentecostal [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Intention That we would appreciate the power of prayer Scripture 18 See how these enemies insult You, Lord. A foolish nation has dishonoured Your name. 20 Remember Your covenant promises, for the land is full of darkness and violence! 21 Don’t let the downtrodden be humiliated again. [...]

Human governments cannot do what only God’s government can. Every tyrant and dictator wants to be ruler over all peoples, and with no dissent allowed. While the masses may in part go along with their rule, there are always various groups -- ethnic, religious, cultural, [...]

There might be a new king in England, but we are co-rulers with Jesus Christ, the King of Kings, now and forevermore. A grand theme of Scripture is that Christ is king. His rule is everlasting. The kingdoms of men will come and go, but [...]

God is good and is never unfair, though He may seem so to paltry human logic. While driving home today from a speaking engagement, I was stuck at a traffic light. I noticed a billboard ad for some legal firm. The wording on it was [...]

If the West is a sinking ship, do we jump overboard and try to save whoever we can in the process? Or should we aim at keeping the ship afloat?

Instead of frittering away time and energy speculating about "The Great Reset" and fearing it, let us focus on the coming of the kingdom of God, preparing our hearts for the ultimate Reset, the new heavens and the new earth. There’s been a great deal [...]

Intention We need to manifest the Kingdom through our lives! Scripture Matthew 4:23: And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people. Reflection In Greek, gospel (‘euaggelion’) [...]

When our western Christian ears hear the word “Gospel”, we automatically think of the Gospel proclaimed by Jesus. However, in Greek, the word gospel (transliterated as ‘euaggelion’) simply refers to ‘good news’ in general. In our modern context, the word is used almost exclusively for [...]

The recognition that, despite our innate differences, all human beings are equal in dignity, is an idea peculiar to Christianity, which laid the groundwork for modern democracy. Australia elected a new Prime Minister on Saturday night, namely Labor’s Anthony Albanese. While the election went smoothly, [...]

Although we are citizens of a heavenly kingdom and look forward to its coming in full, we have a responsibility to do our part in letting God's will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Let us vote wisely in the coming federal [...]

I fear we have missed the point of the plague. We are currently experiencing a national, even a global, disaster. Whether you think that COVID is a great plague that is ravaging our world, or that government overreach is a great plague that is devastating [...]

There is a popular image of heaven as a place of celestial bliss -- with clouds, angels, harps and chubby babies. But that’s not how the Bible depicts heaven at all. In Scripture, heaven is actually described as a new earth. Revelation in particular paints [...]
