Capital Punishment – Moral, Biblical, and Necessary

In a time of moral confusion and cultural decay, it is more important than ever to return to the foundations of justice.

Christians, Don’t Turn a Blind Eye to Abortion

Francis Schaeffer Encounters an Iglesia Ni Cristo Adherent

Francis Schaeffer was no ordinary theologian. Dressed in knickers and often sporting a goatee, he was as much a cultural philosopher as he was a Christian apologist.

The Slippery Slope towards Legalized Pedophilia
