The author overlooks the critical distinction between biblical quarantine and modern lockdowns. In Leviticus 13-14, God instructs that those with infectious diseases should be separated…Scripture never advocates quarantining the healthy or restricting worship for the uninfected. This biblical model—isolating the sick, not the healthy—stands in stark contrast to government policies that restricted everyone regardless of... Continue Reading

Our churches and denominations are at a crossroads. We must decide if we will stand on sound doctrine and biblical belief and practice or entertain those who would subvert, undermine, and destroy.   In October, I published an article titled Sons of Charlatanry. This came on the heels of the announcement that Peter Bell was... Continue Reading

[Salvation] is ultimately God’s work…But that’s not an excuse to hold back from sharing the stark yet saving truth that Jesus is Lord. We simply don’t have the luxury of allowing our unbelieving friends and family to endlessly ponder the concept of Christ without being given the opportunity to entrust themselves to Him.   Until...

As Christians our first and last priority is to pray for kings and those in authority. But we must also stay informed, get involved and engage respectfully and intelligently. And above all we must realise that without Christians we cannot have a Christian civilisation. Our calling is to proclaim the Gospel—not the next political saviour/devil.... Continue Reading

In a Negative World, evangelicals need to be much more concerned with what they are doing than with what other people are doing. I think this principle applies within evangelicalism as well. Rather than fighting over control of the field, perhaps embracing fragmentation is the best route. I believe it works with rather than against... Continue Reading

Preparing for any challenges to Truth means, first and foremost, cultivating a thoughtful and grounded Christian worldview. It also involves understanding the human condition and the counterfeit worldviews that take us captive.   Last month, in an interview with Bari Weiss, venture capitalist and longevity researcher Bryan Johnson discussed “how not to die.” While Johnson’s...

A full 23 years ago Margaret Thatcher was warning us about all this. Writing in the New York Times a few months after the September 11  terror attacks, she penned a piece rightly calling out the problem: “Islamism is the new Bolshevism.”…Of course, looking back, we now see that America and Europe really did not change all...

But the most irritating contemporary ‘ism’ is ‘evangelicalism,’ which, as actually discussed, is nothing but a straw man conjured up when someone wishes to play the prophet and sound important.  There is a digital cottage industry in criticizing ‘evangelicalism,’ and the grounds on which this is done are about as diverse as the number of...

The lack of a governing narrative in the West is a “result of the banishment of Christianity.” Both humanity in general and individuals are “grasping, desperately grasping for something to grant them meaning, even if that meaning is utterly meaningless.” For those familiar with the works of Francis Schaeffer, or are familiar with the Christian...

Christians are going to have to learn that it is not power that is good or evil, but the wielder of that power. The Book of Proverbs says “When the righteous rule, the people rejoice.” We need to make that principle more than just a campaign slogan, but rather an entire philosophy of governing.   ...
