That Dawkins Clip

He misses the charm of Christendom.

Written by Ben Zornes | Saturday, April 20, 2024

Christian Europe must die in order for it to live. It must follow the Savior. And this demands that men like Richard Dawkins must bend his knee and follow Christ’s humility. Jesus humbled Himself so that He might be raised into glory. And if Dawkins wants glory too, he must see that the glory of... Continue Reading

A Brief Review: “The Widening of God’s Mercy: Sexuality Within the Biblical Story”

Homosexual practice is an attack on the very foundation of sexual ethics at creation.

Written by Robert A. J. Gagnon | Friday, April 19, 2024

The two Hays argue that God, who is ever “changing his mind” to “broaden,” “widen,” and “expand” his “grace” and “mercy” in order to “include more and more people,” “has already gone on ahead of our debates and expanded his grace” to embrace “full inclusion of LGBTQ people in Christian communities.”   Sadly, Richard Hays...

Intersectional or Christian – Answering the “Who are we?” Question

For the church I believe that the old adage is true that: “If you don’t know where you stand, you’ll fall for anything.”

Written by S.M. White | Friday, April 19, 2024

There is always a danger that intersectionality is a temptation to culturally attuned and influence seeking churches. Yet a commitment to Reformed confessionalism and a recognition that God distinguishes the spiritual and temporal kingdoms he rules over we will have a bulwark against those who would wish to insert worldly agendas, and in particular those who seek...

A Stone of Stumbling and a Rock of Offense: A Response to President Trump’s New Pro-Choice, State’s Rights Position on Abortion

What is the way for forward for pastors, church members, and all traditional Americans?

Written by Dean Davis | Friday, April 19, 2024

We all must be well-informed, active citizens. We must remind ourselves of the founding principles of our nation, and embrace them afresh. We must proclaim to all the sanctity of human life. We must advocate for its full protection under law. More concretely, we must urge the SCOTUS to do its duty: to implement the... Continue Reading

Three Reasons to Study Historical Theology

Recognizing Christ’s Work in His Church Throughout History

Written by Jacob Trotter | Thursday, April 18, 2024

To ignore godly teachers of the past is to ignore the very means Christ has given for the edification of the church (Eph. 4:11–16). As we humbly receive the wisdom of those who carried the torch of doctrinal fidelity before us, we can live in greater understanding of the theological language we use today, becoming...

We Need to Support the PCA’s Agencies

Old School PCA Confessionalists have long exhibited ambivalence toward the Institutions of the PCA. It's time we embraced them with a view toward making them thoroughly Reformed.

Written by Ryan Biese | Thursday, April 18, 2024

Other than prayer, the best way Old School Confessionalists can support the agencies of the PCA at this time is by searching for more men who share a commitment to robust, Old School Presbyterianism who will be willing to serve on the permanent committees to help shape the policies and priorities of the College, the...

Current Paganization of Nation and Church: Shepherds, Rise to The Occasion

It is evident that America and Western civilization are strongly undergoing re-paganization in both perspective and practice.

Written by Helen Louise Herndon | Thursday, April 18, 2024

What is important is for shepherds to take seriously their responsibility to protect their flocks.  Don’t ignore issues threatening the purity of the church or moral practices of the sheep.  Likewise, don’t ignore the reality of the “. . . the massive escalation in hostility toward Christianity and a biblical worldview.” A spiritual battle is definitely raging,...

Have the Courage to Declare Christ Is King

Christians Must Speak the Truth

Written by Sarah H. Wilder | Thursday, April 18, 2024

“Christ is King” is merely the next linchpin for smearing Christians who misbehave politically. The point is to strip Christians of any meaningful political power by preying on their weakness for tolerance and policing their language to such an extent that more time is spent squabbling about how to assert a very true thing than...

Carl Trueman on Trump vs Biden

Trueman’s latest masterpiece contrasts what he calls “Trumpite ‘evangelicalism’” with “Biden’s brand of ‘devout’ Catholicism.”

Written by Ron DiGiacomo | Wednesday, April 17, 2024

My confidence is not so much that most evangelicals will make the correct choice (though I believe they will), but that they will be fully persuaded over who they believe to be the correct choice. Again, when have we been offered two more polarizing candidates with glaringly antithetical agendas? And why have so little confidence in the ability... Continue Reading

Reasons to Oppose Background Checks in the PCA

The 51st PCA General Assembly, in June 2024, will consider five overtures requesting amending the Book of Church Order to require background checks for ordained church leaders.

Written by Cristopher Brown | Tuesday, April 16, 2024

As Martin Luther and the Reformers held (and died for), only the Word of God can bind the consciences of believers.  Church councils and church decrees (including the Book of Church Order) can and do err.  We do not submit to our brethren when they require us to act against our consciences as informed by...
