In the political and spiritual battles of our time, the question of who governs us is not merely political—it is theological. At its core lies a deeper question: Who has the right to define good and evil, right and wrong, truth and lie? For Christians, the answer is simple: God alone has that right, and…
Lessons in Progressive Deception: Crime Statistics
Crime, by its very nature, thrives in the shadows. But what happens when those shadows are cast not by criminals alone, but by the very people charged with reporting, prosecuting, and explaining crime to the public? In recent years, a troubling pattern has emerged: crime statistics—long a tool for policymakers, journalists, and citizens to assess…
You Might Be Woke If….
“Woke” once meant being alert to injustice. Today, it describes a full-fledged ideology—a secular religion rooted in critical theory, radical subjectivism, and revolutionary politics. It teaches people to see all of life through the lens of oppression, privilege, and identity group conflict. The “woke worldview” believes that truth is socially constructed, moral norms are oppressive,…
Book Review: Triumph of the Lamb by Dennis E. Johnson
Dennis E. Johnson (1944–2022) was a trusted theologian, pastor, and professor at Westminster Seminary California. With a sharp mind trained in Reformed theology and a shepherd’s heart attuned to the needs of Christ’s church, Johnson dedicated much of his academic life to helping believers rightly interpret and live out the Word of God. One of…
Genesis, Days, and Design: Holding Firm to Scripture While Appreciating Its Structure
The opening chapter of Genesis has long been a battleground between competing worldviews: divine revelation versus human speculation, biblical authority versus scientific naturalism. Yet for the Christian committed to Scripture as the infallible, inerrant Word of God, Genesis 1–3 must be treated not as poetry to be molded to modern theories, but as history spoken…
Blaming the Boomers
I remember a US History class lecture in university with an excellent professor, Dr. Clifford Scott. He made some keen personal observations about his students from the Liberation Movement era who were criticizing their parents for being materialistic, while enjoying the benefits of the funding of their education and the licentious activities they were pursuing.…
Does Matthew 19 teach that Christ affirmed transgenderism?
A few weeks ago, I participated in a strong discussion about transgenderism and intersex conditions with a leftist Democrat in a barber shop. In recent years, debates about gender identity have made their way into nearly every aspect of cultural discourse, including the church. What once would have been considered fringe theology—if theology at all—is…
Islam and the abuse of women
Francis Schaeffer, the Presbyterian philosopher and theologian of L’Abri fame, is widely known for his winsome and compassionate approach to apologetics. He repeatedly insisted that he had “no set method,” and that “each person must be approached as an individual.” While this is true on the level of pastoral care and relational contact, it would…
The Seed of the Serpent, the Seed of the Woman, and our Spiritual Warfare
At the very dawn of human history, when sin first slithered into God’s good creation, a prophecy was spoken that has echoed throughout the ages—a declaration of war. In Genesis 3:15, the Lord God, addressing the serpent after the fall of Adam and Eve, pronounced a curse that also served as the earliest gospel promise…
Fragmented Faiths: How Both Islam and Judaism Lack a Complete, Coherent Storyline
In a world increasingly torn between conflicting ideologies and religious claims, one question stands out as paramount: which worldview truly explains reality? Not merely in isolated doctrines or moral teachings, but in the grand scope of history—origin, meaning, morality, and destiny. For the Christian, the answer lies in the majestic sweep of redemptive history, a…
Book Review: No God but One: Allah or Jesus? by Nabeel Qureshi
What if everything you believe were false—would you want to know? That question haunted Nabeel Qureshi for years. Raised in a devout Muslim family, trained in apologetics by his parents and Islamic mentors, and deeply invested in defending the truth of Islam, Qureshi seemed the least likely candidate for conversion to Christianity. And yet, over…
Book Review: Seeking Allah, Finding Christ by Nabeel Qureshi
On September 11, 2001, as the world watched the Twin Towers collapse in horror, countless families were forced into a moral and spiritual reckoning. Among them was the Qureshi family, devout Muslims whose faith had always been a source of identity, structure, and dignity. For young Nabeel Qureshi, a promising American student of Pakistani heritage…
Enemies in the Newsroom: How Media Bias Shapes Anti-Israel Narratives
In the modern information age, the way a story is told can be as influential as the facts themselves. This is especially true when it comes to international affairs, where few issues ignite as much controversy—or as much journalistic bias—as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. For decades, the mainstream media has portrayed Israel in ways that often…
The Betrayal of Britain’s Daughters: A Tragedy of Grooming Gangs, Institutional Cowardice, and Cultural Delusion
Over more than two decades, a tragic pattern of exploitation unfolded across the United Kingdom: vulnerable girls and, sometimes, boys —many of them white, working-class, and underage—were systematically targeted and sexually trafficked in cities large and small. This was not a hidden crisis. These crimes were committed in plain view, in towns where local officials,…
The Christian Duty to Confront Culture
Christians today are under enormous pressure to remain silent. In a society increasingly hostile to biblical values, many believers have adopted a posture of cultural disengagement. They retreat into private faith, assuming that if they simply preach the gospel and avoid confrontation, they will be faithful witnesses. But is that truly what God expects? Is…
Book Review: Playing by the Rules: How to Read the Bible Rightly Dr. Robert Stein
The Bible is the most influential book in human history. It has shaped nations, comforted the grieving, rebuked kings, and changed the hearts of millions. But while Scripture is inspired, the way people interpret it often is not. You’ve probably heard someone say, “Well, that’s just your interpretation.” And in a sense, they’re right: everyone…
Public Spaces Protection Orders and Christian Persecution in “Progressive” (woke) Britain
In recent years, the United Kingdom has witnessed an unsettling trend: the gradual encroachment of state power into the realm of individual liberty—particularly religious liberty. At the center of this shift stands a bureaucratic but powerful instrument: the Public Spaces Protection Order, or PSPO. While framed as a means of promoting public safety and curbing…
The Purpose of Suffering
Few questions strike the human heart more deeply than, “Why would a good and all-powerful God allow suffering?” From the cries of a mother at the grave of her child, to the silent anguish of a man betrayed by his own body through chronic disease, suffering challenges our assumptions about justice, purpose, and the nature…
Dr. Joseph Nicolosi and the Counseling of Male Homosexuals
Dr. Joseph Nicolosi remains one of the most controversial figures in modern psychological discourse—not because he was hateful or coercive, but because he dared to ask whether same-sex attraction in men could be understood, and even redirected, through therapeutic means. At a time when culture insists that sexuality is fixed, identity-based, and beyond question, Nicolosi…
Book Review: Antifa – The Antifascist Handbook by Mark Bray
Ideas have consequences. History testifies that books change the world—not merely by spreading information, but by sowing seeds of ideology that germinate into action. From Marx’s Communist Manifesto to Hitler’s Mein Kampf, and from Paine’s Common Sense to Darwin’s Origin of Species, ideas birthed in the privacy of study have exploded into revolutions in the streets. In that tradition—but with far…
