The triumph of the Critical Theory narrative over facts, history, and Constitutional Protections is widespread. I searched “white supremacy” and “linear thinking” (another bogeyman for Critical Theory) and a number of .gov sites came up. This is the stuff that the president’s recent executive order was intended to remove but it may well be that... Continue Reading

What many people won’t recognize is that this statement twists the meaning of “pro-life.” As I demonstrated in my booklet “How Does the Creation Care Movement Threaten the Pro-Life Movement,” this use of the term “pro-life” runs directly contrary to standard dictionary definitions, all which define “pro-life” as opposition to abortion—not opposition to hunger, not...

God can sanctify us through differences of political opinion. We see candidates differently due to age; spiritual maturity; our time of salvation; our family upbringing and geographic location. Here we can grow in Romans 15:7: “Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you.” We are to accept one another or receive one another and... Continue Reading

God hates abortion. Psalm 5:6 says, “The Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man,” and Proverbs 6:17 says that He hates “hands that shed innocent blood.” God will judge the abortionist and the one who aborts, if they do not repent. But Jesus Christ died on the cross and shed His blood even for the sin of murdering... Continue Reading

Wheat and tares look virtually alike. Only God can see hearts. However, the awareness that those dear to us may merely appear to be a brother or sister in Christ should compel us to humbly initiate these hard conversations. Let us not become the Christian gestapo, but let us exhibit an authentic urgency and concern... Continue Reading

Some Christians might hear these arguments and wonder if they’re beside the point. They might ask: “If notions of corporate guilt and repentance will lead white Christians to be more sympathetic to their brothers and sisters of color and more zealous for justice, isn’t this just theological hair-splitting? Even worse, will it just provide an... Continue Reading

Despite that fact that the opinion is carefully and methodically reasoned, and was unanimously supported by the three-woman panel of judges, and despite Purdue’s obvious and total disregard for elementary fairness in the proceeding against Doe, one can expect that senators opposing Judge Barrett will try to draw misleading conclusions from it, twist its meaning,...

Appeal to conscience is not a ground to never be challenged. Your conscience may not bend – and it would be wrong for you to go against it – but that doesn’t stop another from showing you from scripture why perhaps your conscience is more rigid on this matter than it needs to be. Likewise,... Continue Reading

Our posture toward morally permissible laws with bad or unjust outcomes should be different than our posture toward morally unjust laws. With morally permissible laws, we can talk about “reducing the bad outcomes,” even while continuing to affirm the moral permissibility of a law. Not so with inherently unjust laws. The goal with unjust laws... Continue Reading

If, however, the considerations we have adduced in this essay are sound, they practically preclude a vote for Biden. If one acknowledges the gravity, scale, and scope of the injustice of abortion, and of a legal regime that denies to an entire class of human beings the most basic of human rights, thus exposing them...
