Living in a “Trans” World

Jordan Peterson sounds the alarm on lowering standards to pacify progressivism.

Written by Carl Trueman | Thursday, February 10, 2022

We truly do live in a “trans” world. Not so much the trans of the LGBTQ movement but rather the trans of 19th-century philosopher (and harbinger of postmodern anarchy) Nietzsche’s so-called transvaluation of all values. Once the foundation of traditional values has been destroyed, there is, Nietzsche declared, a need for such transvaluation: That which... Continue Reading

A Sheep Speaks: A Testimony to the National Partnership, Part One

He who uses craft and secrecy can little object if others do so more adeptly in response.

Written by Tom Hervey | Wednesday, February 9, 2022

Now in discussing this we come to the question of the email leak and to the objection that it was an unlawful act of trafficking in confidential intellectual property that discredits the leaker and makes any criticism of you that is built upon the leaked materials illegitimate. The leak was unsavory, and on its first... Continue Reading

Standing in the PCA

Rather than leave the PCA, take proactive and positive steps to strengthen the PCA.

Written by Ryan Biese | Wednesday, February 9, 2022

We have seen over the last several years the results of a small, secretive, but well-organized group operating in the shadows. But imagine the benefit to the PCA if a large group of elders became engaged in the courts of the church and openly worked toward promoting faithfulness to the historic truths and the warm, biblical piety...

Three Things Parents Must Do in the Gender Debate

As gender confusion plays out in the public sphere, the most significant price is paid by children and youth.

Written by Virgil Walker | Wednesday, February 9, 2022

The primary means of transforming culture is through the family. Families focused on the three things suggested here will be strong, and our civilization will reflect this standard. We didn’t get to this point in time overnight, and we won’t get out of it overnight. It will take time. In the meantime, the most important... Continue Reading

Identity and Obedience in Revoice 2021

People should not be called “straight Christians” any more than they should be called “Gay Christians.” Revoice’s embrace of those categories sets them at odds with the Bible’s teaching on identity.

Written by Anne Kennedy | Tuesday, February 8, 2022

I fear that rather than establishing a faithful path for Christians, Revoice is precipitating a grievous division in the American church. They do this first by grounding their reading of the Scriptures in secular ideology, second by insisting the disagreements about identity are purely semantic, and third by claiming to uphold a biblical sexual ethic...

It’s Not Time to Leave

Issues that have been under the surface are now coming to the forefront. We are deciding which way to go, and that takes time.

Written by Ryan Biese | Tuesday, February 8, 2022

The fact that we have reached a crossroads is a good thing. It indicates the divisions that mostly remained out of sight except occasionally (e.g. during the 2010 proposed “Strategic Plan” or sometimes during the Review of Presbytery Records Report) are now staying in the forefront of the discussion.   As we wait to see...

Dissent, Response, & Concurrences in Speck v. Missouri Presbytery

The case was about evaluating Missouri Presbytery’s investigation of TE Johnson; the SJC has not vindicated TE Johnson as he claims.

Written by Scott Edburg | Monday, February 7, 2022

15 of the 24 men on the SJC have now, to some extent, gone on official record to express concern over TE Johnson’s views. This development contradicts claims that TE Johnson’s views were exonerated by the SJC in Speck v. Missouri Presbytery. In the case, the SJC decision represented an adjudication regarding a particular presbytery’s... Continue Reading

A Word on Narratives

There is ample evidence that the divisiveness in the PCA is actually coming from the “progressive” or “beautifully orthodox” side, not from the conservative side.

Written by Brad Isbell | Monday, February 7, 2022

The reasonable conclusion in the case of the SSA controversy is that the innovators are the schismatic and contentious ones, not those who question them. It would be an unloving and cowardly act for those who oppose dangerous innovation, encroachments of the modern sexual revolution, and flawed concepts of identity and personhood to quit the...

Changing America’s Prayer

If the deity entreated is the God of the Bible, then specific questions might be in order – the main of which is "do we even know this God so regularly asked to bless America?"

Written by Peter Rosenberger | Monday, February 7, 2022

America’s decline, along with growing defiance against the Almighty, now warrants a change in prayers. No longer can we appeal for God to bless America. Our circumstances now prompt a cry for mercy. Due to our collective decay now bearing fruit, a more urgent prayer is for God to spare America.   A repeated appeal... Continue Reading

The Wizard of Oz is Fake

As Christians slept, most of these institutions were secularized over a period of years.

Written by Larry Ball | Monday, February 7, 2022

The church in America has taken a major hit.  In the PCA, homosexuals stand in some pulpits every Sunday as teaching elders.  The church’s response to Covid-19 was pathetic.  After the original panic period, most churches in America continued to close their doors and prevented the people of God from worshiping together as a congregation....
