I confess that my main aim in these two messages is not to persuade you that homosexual behavior is wrong. It is wrong. But you can believe that and not be a Christian. So what does it profit a man if he knows everything that’s wrong, and loses his own soul? My aim is much... Continue Reading

Campaigners for infanticide will make their case in a gradual way. First, they won’t call it “infanticide” (killing infants) but “post-birth abortion.” The reasons are obvious. The word “infanticide” strikes horror into our hearts. But “post-birth abortion” makes it sound like the termination is simply an extension of abortion, which we are culturally adjusted to....

When the pictures of these two young brothers were broadcast, my heart sunk. The younger boy, the one still alive, is only a few years older than my son.  There he was, casually walking with his hat backwards – with a weapon of mass destruction on his back, intent on mayhem.  What hatred has filled...

I suspect the primary consideration that has motivated such a diversity of states to recognize heterosexual unions between one man and one woman is because this is the ordinary biological way in which new taxpayers (and soldiers, etc.) are created. Governments do not (yet?) have the power to create new humans to pay taxes in... Continue Reading

What we propose to do today is to legitimize that which both the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God clearly reveal to be illegitimate. We propose, as a society, to solemnize, and affirm as acceptable and appropriate, what our Creator has declared, both by natural and special revelation, to be a violation of his... Continue Reading

There may be an appropriate government/security/regulation type response to this – I won’t claim to speak to that. What I do know is that no amount of technology will stop all sinful acts.  We’re too creative for that.  More importantly, the sinful heart needs the Gospel.   I’ve followed the news of the bomb attack...

So in the truest sense, we look evil straight in the eye, call it evil, and say loud and clear that whatever havoc it wields, whatever pain it causes, it is permitted, not free. We tell evil it’s not the ultimate reality in the universe. There is One who is stronger. There is One who... Continue Reading

The pastors who spoke with me said Christians are in a good position to understand grace and what it means to have a debt forgiven. They said they aren’t advocating a free pass—as opponents of immigration reform often charge—but a way for illegal immigrants to be reconciled with the law. Gabriel Salguero, president of the...

Have these hipsters and elites ever bothered to asked this one simple question: why are the chains coming to New York City? Here’s a clue: New York is the most expensive state in America to run a business and the city is even worse. Because of the cascade of government regulations and high rents, due... Continue Reading

The conversation also reminded me of one of the supreme ironies of the contemporary politics of homosexuality. A movement originally built upon the idea of transgression, the breaking of taboos and the crossing of boundaries has become one of the most intolerant and conformist movements ever to emerge within liberal democratic societies. The current debate... Continue Reading
