From Rome to Regeneration – A Better Testimony Than Returning to Tradition

In the face of disillusionment with modern evangelicalism, some Protestants—especially young men—are leaving their churches and embracing Roman Catholicism. Their stories often sound similar: “I wanted depth,” “I wanted history,” or “I was tired of emotionalism and needed something structured.” What they find in Roman Catholicism is a system rich in ritual, hierarchy, tradition, and…

Are Christians Criticizing Gender Ideology Unloving?

In an Easter editorial, a local newspaper editor-in-chief lamented Christians who criticize gender ideology, implying such objections are inherently unloving. This claim is not just a misunderstanding of Christian theology and ethics; it represents a deeper cultural confusion about what love truly is. Christians who confront the destructive lies of gender ideology are not engaging…

Who’s to Blame for Our Suffering—Adam, God, or Ourselves?

The problem of suffering has haunted humanity since the dawn of time. Who’s responsible? Many lay the blame at the feet of God—if He is good and all-powerful, why does He permit so much pain? Others shift responsibility to Adam, the first man, whose disobedience brought sin and death into the world. Still others reject…

One Word, One Lord – Why the Collapse of Free Speech in the UK Reveals the Need for a Christian Consensus

Western nations, and the United Kingdom in particular, are suffering under the weight of an ideological contradiction. On one hand, multiculturalism promises pluralism, tolerance, and social cohesion. On the other, progressive elites increasingly police speech, suppress dissent, and enforce ideological conformity. This is most vividly seen in the realm of free speech—where different groups (Christians,…

A House Divided – The Tragic Compromise on Abortion Within Seventh-day Adventist Institutions

Seventh-day Adventists are widely known for advocating clean living, obedience to God’s commandments, and the pursuit of truth. They emphasize health, education, and morality. Yet a profound contradiction lurks beneath this moral exterior: the official positions and practices of many SDA-affiliated hospitals permit the performance of elective abortions—including abortions based on rape, incest, and congenital…

Criminalizing Biblical Counseling – The Rising Global Threat Against Christian Counselors Who Oppose Gender Ideology

What was once considered the compassionate, biblically faithful ministry of pastors and Christian counselors—offering hope, prayer, and moral guidance to the confused and hurting—is increasingly being labeled “conversion therapy” and even “hate speech.” Nowhere is this more evident than in discussions surrounding gender dysphoria. From state laws in the United States to sweeping federal criminal…

National Blessing and National Judgment – Deuteronomy 28 and the American Decline

Deuteronomy 28 stands as one of the most solemn and sobering chapters in all of Scripture. It spells out, in plain terms, the blessings that would come to ancient Israel if they obeyed God’s covenant, and the curses that would come upon them if they disobeyed. While these promises and threats were covenantal in nature—specifically…

Is the Roman Catholic Church the One True Church?

The Roman Catholic Church boastfully claims to be the one, true, apostolic Church established by Christ Himself—outside of which there is no ordinary possibility of salvation. This assertion is foundational to Rome’s self-identity, institutional authority, and sacramental theology. Catholics believe that through the unbroken succession of bishops from Peter to the present pope, Rome alone…

Christianity Changed the World for the Good: Even Secular Historians Are Starting to Admit It

The narrative of Christianity’s impact on civilization has been under assault for decades, particularly in Western academic circles dominated by secularism and postmodernism. Yet, a curious shift is occurring. A new breed of secular and even atheistic historians are reevaluating the legacy of Christianity—not as an oppressive superstition, but as the foundational moral engine behind…

The Persecution and Genocide of Nigerian Christians – A Historical and Ongoing Tragedy

Christian persecution in Nigeria has deep historical roots, dating back to the rise of Islamic jihads in the 19th century, most notably the Sokoto Caliphate (founded in 1804), which spread Islam through conquest across northern Nigeria. With British colonization, Christian missionary activity increased in the south and central regions, while Islam retained dominance in the…

Is It Christian Nationalism the Left Fears—Or Simply Christianity?

The term Christian Nationalism has rapidly become a buzzword in American political discourse, especially among the Left and progressive elites. It is frequently used as a pejorative, meant to conjure fears of authoritarianism, theocracy, and a loss of pluralistic freedom. But a crucial question remains largely unanswered: is it really Christian Nationalism that the Left…

Prophets, Politics, and the Christian Voice – A Call to Courageous Engagement

In today’s turbulent political landscape, Christians face mounting pressure to either stay silent or to engage poorly. Some within the Church argue that believers should avoid public discussions about politics altogether. Others speak with bitterness or vulgarity, reflecting not the Spirit of Christ but the spirit of the age. In a society that is rapidly…

Father’s Day and the Fatherless Crisis in America

Each year, on the third Sunday in June, Americans observe Father’s Day—a holiday intended to honor the vital role of fathers in family life and society. But in today’s cultural climate, the idea of fatherhood is not merely neglected—it is actively undermined and maligned. What began as a day to recognize paternal love, strength, and…

Christians, Don’t Turn a Blind Eye to Abortion

How could the German people under Hitler tolerate a government-sponsored genocide that murdered over 10 million souls? How could so many citizens claim ignorance when the smoke of burning bodies drifted over towns, when trains rolled past villages packed with human cargo bound for extermination? Historians have debated the scope of public awareness, but a…

The Forgotten Hours of Prayer – a Timely Remedy for a Prayerless Church

In a world obsessed with productivity, efficiency, and constant noise, the idea of pausing to pray at designated hours may seem quaint, even impractical. Yet the ancient practice of observing fixed times for prayer is not a human invention—it is rooted in the Scriptures, developed through centuries of Jewish and Christian tradition, and can serve…

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. His greatest work, however, was not in lecture halls or on debate stages—it was in the cozy mountain chalet of L’Abri (“The Shelter”) in Huémoz, Switzerland. There, he…

Worldview Comparison Series: Biblical Christianity vs. Iglesia Ni Cristo

Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC), or the “Church of Christ,” is a religious movement founded in the Philippines in 1914 by Felix Y. Manalo. Manalo, born into a Catholic family in 1886, explored several denominations—Methodist Episcopal, Presbyterian, and Seventh-day Adventist—before claiming a special calling as the last messenger of God in the last days. He officially…
