A bedrock principle of epistemology (how we can know anything) is that God exists first. There must be a Creator God, independent of us, who defines truth, proof, and reality. Truth can only be eternal and unchanging by existing outside of time, space, and humanity. If we get to define it, how is it going to be unchanging?
The underlying premise of the humanist will be the unrestricted brotherhood of all men.
Social justice is/was never about justice: it is all about punishment.
This year I turned 65. All of a sudden those T-shirts that say “Growing old got here faster than I expected” start to resonate. I find myself the oldest person in many rooms I walk into. Working around the house causes a lot more cramps and aches than it once did. This is not a complaint. It’s more an alert for those coming behind to listen to the clock. Tick, Tock. We all know that […]
God can blow hot and cold, wrath and mercy, to his enemies and friends in the same breath
The trailer for the documentary By What Standard by Founders Ministries has created quite a stir. If that is any indication of the interest to be anticipated to the full presentation, it is an encouraging development. A D Robles that points out, among other things, the cooperative efforts between the big name Evangelical power brokers and the social justice crowd that is working to undermine the witness of Christ’s church. On the surface this may […]
Having been a pastor for over 25 years now, I write out of a deep concern over the state of the Church in America. If one was to look at Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress, the Church in America today is stuck in Vanity Fair. There is a perpetual pursuit by American Christians for personal peace and prosperity. Comfort and ease reigns. I see no heartfelt desire amongst Christians to serve Him, and see His kingdom expanded […]
The great mistake of those who made laws for the Indians was their failure to understand that in order to civilize a people, one must first persuade then to settle in one place, and this cannot happen unless they cultivate the soil. Alexis de Tocqueville; Democracy in America; p. 378 Tocqueville’s point here is both very incisive and very relevant today. Being fashioned by God from the earth, man’s existence and development are bound up […]
Many who read this remember a time when the Biblical order for the family was, in a general but real way, accepted and practiced by our society as a whole. It was not perfect, but neither was it a subject for debate. A typical family was a family; it had a mother, a father, and children. The father was the protector and provider, and the mother was the home keeper. It was not entirely unusual […]
Authorities are put in place by God not only to hold men accountable but to reflect that all men are not their own, but are to be submissive to Christ. Wives submit to their husbands as to the Lord. Husbands love their wives as Christ loves His elect. In the State, we recognize the terrifying hand of God’s Law. We will all be held accountable on the final judgment for our violation of that law; […]
