The Magdeburg Confession and Resistance Theory
An important early document on how Christians might deal with tyrants.
But its [the Magdeburg Confession] importance has stood the test of time. It especially came to the fore just a few years ago when the Covid reign of terror descended upon much of the world…As this globalist statism is likely to only get worse in the days ahead, returning to these older documents become more...

The Unity and Continuity of the Covenants
Throughout Scripture, one finds God working to gather a people to Himself through covenantal relationships.
Covenant is woven throughout Scripture. Why? Because in God’s covenantal work, He has been working to bring His people to Himself and He has made them His own. If you sat down and read the entire Bible from cover to cover, you would notice that one theme surfaces repeatedly: covenant. A covenant is a... Continue Reading
Climb a Mountain, Swim a Sea, Fight a Dragon
Grace is offensive.
Naaman did what so many of us did when we first heard of grace—we rejected it. But God did for Naaman what he did to so many of us—he pursued us and drew us back. He saved us and drew him in. He rescued us and drew him to himself. He did it all because... Continue Reading
Point to His Faithfulness
Because God is faithful, we can be secure.
Your faith may be small, but His faithfulness is great. Yes, your sin may be great, but His grace is greater. Our God is the faithful One, and may we continue to put our hope in Him. “I’m just not sure I’m saved.” He said this as he looked at me from across the... Continue Reading
Fake News: Complementarianism and Disinformation
Disinformation about complementarity is pasted on Twitter, promoted on Facebook, and spread via blog posts and magazine articles.
In our age of rapid, digital communication, “fake news” is as common as ever. As we’ve seen, disinformation regarding complementarianism abounds, whether those arguments are theological, historical, or moral. May we not be fooled by such claims. Rather, let us be like Bereans, testing to see if these things are so. Donald Trump made... Continue Reading
Elite Universities Are beyond Repair
When America’s most elite credentialing institutions have fallen, a bleak future is on the horizon.
America is waking up to the fact that most of American higher education is an enemy of American ideals. In a sane world, the government would establish a commission to study the ideological capture of institutions like a Columbia. But this is the constituency Democrats need to win elections, so that will never happen. ... Continue Reading
Culturally Respectable Racism
Why aren’t pundits who bashed evangelicals as racists more vocal about rampant anti-Semitism on the left?
One cannot join the “silence is violence” crowd when it suits you but then keep quiet when events reveal that your “evangelicalism is the most pressing and dangerous threat to America” is arrant, self-serving nonsense. The scenes that have been playing out on elite American campuses—scenes of the most explicit racism—are a national disgrace.... Continue Reading
Should We Consider Mary the First Apostle?
An apostle must be both called and given authority.
If “apostle” simply means one who is “sent” to share the gospel, then of course every Christian is an “apostle”. But if “apostle” is interpreted against the whole matrix of the New Testament, then every Christian is most certainly not an apostle. One of the glorious and beautiful truths of—and legacies of—biblical Christianity is Christianity’s... Continue Reading
A UFO in Ezekiel 1?
A Closer Look at a Close Encounter
Ezekiel 1 is full of bizarre imagery, yes. But the content is not about what we call a UFO. The chapter is a vision of heavenly creatures—called cherubim—and the majesty of Yahweh. The heavenly throne was supported by wheels, as if God sat upon a throne-chariot. God is exalted, transcendent, reigning supreme. When I... Continue Reading
Institutionalizing a Lie
The Biden administration’s new Title IX rules mean that all American public schools must operate on the fundamental falsehood of gender ideology.
Parents should ask school board members whether they plan to comply with Biden’s Title IX regulation. If the answer is yes, then traditionalist parents should look into transitioning their children—to private schools. Earlier this month, the U.K.’s National Health Service released the Cass Review, a report that urged Great Britain to pump the breaks... Continue Reading
