An Overture on Titles & Ordination
In the 1990s there was some controversy in a presbytery or two where churches used the title “minister” for unordained persons.
Some in the PCA are not content to contextualize their presentation, liturgy, or worship — they also feel the need to contextualize polity for an egalitarian cultural mindset that has no patience for the biblical doctrines of office and ordination that are found in our BCO. Their ecclesial innovation can only harm the peace and... Continue Reading
Abusive leadership in God’s House: A Growing Problem
These two books represent depressing reading. They expose the growing ugliness in the body of Christ.
While Honeysett focuses on how churches as a whole, and bodies of elders gradually lose their way to the detriment of the rest of the church, Kruger spends proportionately more time looking at the spiritual, emotional, and psychological state of the key leaders, particular senior pastors themselves. Book review, Bully Pulpit: Confronting the Problem... Continue Reading
A Review: To Count Our Days: A History of Columbia Theological Seminary.
While William Childs Robinson may have been pugnacious in his defense of traditional Calvinism, he was right about the effects of loosening confessional subscription on the institution and the church.
What happens when the culture moves in a less theocentric direction? The middle also moves with it. While William Childs Robinson may have been pugnacious in his defense of traditional Calvinism, he was right about the effects of loosening confessional subscription on the institution and the church. The story of Columbia Theological Seminary is mixed. ... Continue Reading
Does The Church of England Need Evangelicals?
There is an evangelical rebellion among the Church of England’s most committed evangelical congregations.
Traditional, orthodox Anglicans are about to meet in Rwanda in order to assess the global situation and further attenuate, perhaps even completely sever, links with the Church of England. One reason is that the African bishops see the West’s attempt to foist this liquefied anthropology upon the global church as yet another act of Western... Continue Reading
An Overview of “Embracing the Journey: A Christian Parents’ Blueprint to Loving Your LGBTQ Child” (2)
The authors assure their readers: Just "love God, and love another. We leave the rest to the Holy Spirit."
“Embracing the Journey” has all the earmarks of being a stealth gay/transgender front organization, and an exemplar of deception, doublespeak, and egregious proof-texting. There is a reason why they avoid direct statements about their view that Scripture isn’t addressing committed homosexual relationships and an “authentic” transgender life: They want to attract conservative parents who start...

How To Kill A Denomination In One Easy Move
An urgent call for teaching and ruling elders to be faithful to attend General Assembly.
If you want to kill your denomination in one easy move that move is to neglect General Assembly. Those who helped bring in the very things that caused you to send your ruling elders to GA in the first place (Revoice/Side-B, CRT, female line- authority, etc.) are themselves going to be at General Assembly and...

The Second Life of a Christian College in Manhattan Nears Its End
The King’s College, which draws students from around the country to Manhattan, has not been able to recover from enrollment and financial losses.
The King’s College is a small school. But as the city’s only high-profile evangelical college committed to “the truths of Christianity and a biblical worldview,” it is more well known than its enrollment numbers — over 600 students before the pandemic, down to roughly half that now — might suggest. Its sudden decline has drawn... Continue Reading
Wokism and Silent Preachers – A Redux of Hitler’s Germany
Wokism is the application of a new religion which can be called Neo-Marxism, which is a religion.
Wokism has become a giant bulldozer seeking to crush everything in its path. It has captured the civil government, educational institutions, the military, corporations, banks, media, and even has made major inroads into the church. It comes like a cancer (posing as a medicinal cure) eating away everything that sustains life and peace. In some... Continue Reading
