Education, Not Indoctrination
Should we “just teach the facts”?
At the founding, and for most of America’s history, the moral formation at America’s schools and universities included instruction in religion. George Washington warned, for example, in his Farewell Address that we must not “indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion.” Massachusetts’ Constitution speaks similarly: “The happiness of a people, and the...

Should Christians Attend “Gay Weddings”?
Jesus never participated in an idol’s feast in order to win over those very same tax-gatherers and sinners.
In a traditional marriage ceremony, the officiant addresses the congregation with, “If any man can show just cause why they may not lawfully be wedded, let him now declare it, or else hereafter forever hold his peace.” Even when those words aren’t uttered explicitly in the ceremony, they nevertheless indicate what attending a wedding means. That is why when... Continue Reading
Abortion Pill Reversal Gave My Daughter and Me a Second Chance at Life
No woman should feel forced into abortion, but thanks to abortion pill reversal, there is a second chance to give your baby life.
I came across the Hope Clinic in Fallbrook, California, and saw some information on its website about abortion pill reversal (APR), which uses progesterone to reverse the effects of the first chemical abortion drug, mifepristone. I knew I had a 24-hour window before it was too late, so I rushed to Hope Clinic the next... Continue Reading
Begg Digs a Deeper Hole
His misplaced slander of critics, refusal to consider their scriptural arguments, and lack of nuance in describing Jesus’ outreach to sinners.
Begg ignores the scriptural counsel regarding stumbling others, in addition to ignoring scriptural counsel against being present at an event at which God forbids attendance. The Christian attending the “gay” or “trans” so-called wedding would need to notify publicly all present at the gathering, not just the family member getting married, that he or she...

The Slaughter in Nigeria Continues
This past Christmas saw one of the worst attacks yet, the slaughter of 200 Christians.
It is frustrating that there is so little that can be done if the Nigerian government is determined on a policy of slowly eradicating the Christian populations of north and central Nigeria over the years with mass murder, destruction of churches, homes, crops, and demographic replacement with people from northern Muslim tribes. The persecution... Continue Reading
A Therapized Age
We need to go to God for forgiveness for being swept up in the cultural immorality of exalting our feelings above God’s Word.
You are not the sum of your traumas, feelings, and perceptions of reality. You are who God says you are. This means you are either a rebel against God & reality, or you are owned as a beloved child of a loving Father, who through Christ has adopted you into the warmth of His Heavenly... Continue Reading
PCA Petitions Biden Protesting Trans Surgeries for Minors: ‘Attempting the Impossible’
The PCA commission said children are uniquely vulnerable, exacerbated by social media and the alienation caused by the government's COVID-19 policies.
The commission grounded its petition in the teaching that God has special care for children, noting when Jesus Christ warned strongly against scandalizing children when he urged his disciples in Mark 10:14: “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.” Petitioning the government is an...

Is It Anti-woman to Be Anti-abortion?
Abortion advocates try to rewrite the history of feminism.
The distinctive contribution of ‘Pity For Evil’, however, is that feminism need not be understood as synonymous with pro-abortion politics. A more historically rooted feminism grounds the value and dignity of women in their capacity for virtue and care, not in their ability to mimic male sexual appetites. In spite of the lip service paid to... Continue Reading
The Danger of Self-Soothing through Social Media
People have thrown up walls, thinking they’ve secured protection, while in reality, the security is a prison cell.
Social media self-validation enshrines bad behavior as a sign of goodness. The very attitude or action that may be your problem, something to work on or try to modify, gets turned into proof of your goodness. Are you stubborn and obstinate? No, you’re standing strong when everyone else is trying to take you down. Are... Continue Reading
The Film 1946 Is Wrong
No, the belief that homosexual behavior is sinful is not due to a translation error.
The film contends that even though the second edition of the RSV dropped the word “homosexual,” the damage had already been done. Other English versions like the NIV, NASB, and the Living Bible followed the original RSV. This is the part where the film makes a wild jump. It presents the argument that because Billy...
