The Fatal Flaw in the Declaration of Independence

Having strayed in our founding documents from the God of the Bible as our Creator and Lawgiver; it took about 200 years to see the fruit of such a major mistake.

Written by Larry Ball | Thursday, July 16, 2020

There must be no partiality in judgment. “You shall do no injustice in judgment; you shall not be partial to the poor not nor defer to the great, but you are to judge your neighbor fairly” (Lev. 19:15). This is biblical equality.  Justice is the administration of the Law of God with its penalties by... Continue Reading

Only Five Black Lives Matter?

Whatever our race, we should denounce any form of hatred or superiority.

Written by Peter Jones | Wednesday, July 15, 2020

We need a thoughtful response to the present state of many in the black culture who are locked in a false view of their situation. A part of the response our culture should bring is a genuine apology for the godless, liberal policies that helped destroy the black family in the 1960s. This was a... Continue Reading

Enlightenment Liberalism Is Losing Ground In The Debate About Race

The liberalism of Enlightenment philosophy starts with the assertion that all human beings have equal moral worth. Yet when it comes to race many liberals have failed to live up to their own values.

Written by The Economist | Monday, July 13, 2020

Though that is not all thanks to Enlightenment liberals, obviously, liberalism has prospered as Marxism and fascism have failed. But its poor record on race, especially with regard to African-Americans, stands out. Income, wealth, education and incarceration remain correlated with ethnicity to a staggering degree. True, great steps have been taken against overt racial animus.... Continue Reading

An Important Win for Religious Liberty: Espinoza v. Montana

The opinion effectively ends the ability of state governments to discriminate against religious education under what are commonly referred to as “Blaine Amendments.”

Written by John A. Sparks | Friday, July 10, 2020

The Supreme Court now finds in a 5-4 decision—with Chief Justice John Roberts writing the majority opinion along with Justices Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh—that the Montana Supreme Court’s invalidation of the Montana scholarship tax credit/scholarship program was unconstitutional. When first instituted, the legislation allowed parents to use scholarship grants for tuition payments to religious... Continue Reading

Here’s The Dilemma Humanism Can’t Solve But Christianity Can

The Humanist savior is mankind, while the Christian savior is Jesus Christ.

Written by Mark Tapscott | Thursday, July 9, 2020

There is another answer, the one provided by Jesus Christ. But secularists/humanists are increasingly not merely rejecting the answer provided by Jesus Christ, they are becoming more intolerant and impatient with it, as seen in radical leftist Shaun King’s declaration this week that “all murals and stained glass windows of white Jesus, and his European...

Bringing Down Churchill

Churchill’s statue in London’s Parliamentary Square was defaced by a protestor who spray-painted “was a racist” across its base.

Written by Gary S. Smith | Thursday, July 9, 2020

While recognizing his flaws, we should, however, evaluate Churchill’s historical context and scrutinize his arguments. And we should remember that without Churchill, Britain might have capitulated to the Nazis as France did and that world history would be radically different. In leading Britain during World War II, Churchill acted with consummate courage and arguably had... Continue Reading

The Evangelical Church’s Confused Witness on Race: Part 3

The apparent obsession of many of the leaders in the SBC and the PCA with white racism is rooted in white guilt.

Written by Bill Peacock | Thursday, July 9, 2020

Racism will be with us until Christ consummates His marriage with His Bride, the church. But God’s wisdom shows us that the best way to help blacks and other minorities is not through welfare, affirmative action, or confessing our racism—unless, of course, we really are racist   In Part 2 of this series, we presented the...

Writing Every Wrong

Social media provides us with the endless opportunity to opine on anything – whether anyone cares to hear it or not; but do we personally have to right every wrong?

Written by Steve Curtis | Thursday, July 9, 2020

These tests may militate against our impulse to write immediately, spontaneously, and even crushingly. However, pausing to weigh the wisdom in whatever we would write may well lead us to forego the writing altogether – or certainly to adopt a wiser tone that corresponds with these biblical tests. We really do not need to write... Continue Reading

Is The Church’s Officer Class Surrendering?

They have declared that the purpose of the Gospel is racial reconciliation rather than reconciliation of sinful man to a holy and righteous God.

Written by Rod Dreher | Wednesday, July 8, 2020

So now even the Gospel is subverted to meet the needs of the gods of Diversity and Inclusion. They have pimped the Gospel to to appease people who will never be appeased. They have declared that the purpose of the Gospel is racial reconciliation rather than reconciliation of sinful man to a holy and righteous... Continue Reading

The Neoliberal Counter-Revolution

We’re witnessing a counter-revolution of the neoliberal class—academe, media, large corporations, ‘experts,’ Big Tech—against the nationalist revolution launched in 2016.

Written by Sohrab Ahmari | Tuesday, July 7, 2020

But when national institutions bow (or kneel) to the street fighters’ demands, it should tell us that something else is going on. We aren’t dealing with a Maoist or Marxist revolt, even if some protagonists spout hard-leftish rhetoric. Rather, what’s playing out is a counter-revolution of the neoliberal class — academe, media, large corporations, ‘experts’,... Continue Reading
