Do Christians Face Genocide from ISIS? US Has One Week Left to Decide

With March 17 deadline fast approaching, advocates ratchet up pressure on John Kerry.

Written by Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra | Tuesday, March 15, 2016

“CT has reported how terrorists such as ISIS are now officially the greatest threat faced by the persecuted church, as Christians in 50 countries continue to face record levels of persecution. Middle Eastern evangelicals have exchanged strategies, while advocates call for the creation of a safe haven.”   For two years, ISIS has been terrorizing... Continue Reading

Girls Just Want to Be Born

We must work to oppose all acts of gender based violence, protect women’s and girls’ lives, and seek consistent non-discriminatory life-affirming laws and policies.

Written by Marie Smith | Monday, March 14, 2016

There is no disputing the link between sex-selection abortion and the rise of violence against women and girls. Organizations that work to stop gender-based violence (GBV) need look no further than the tragedy of prenatal sex selection for the beginnings of GBV. But present-day pro-abortion politics stand in the way and prevent most from opposing... Continue Reading

Bill: Florida Churches Don’t Have to Do Same-Sex Weddings

The House passed the bill (HB 43) on Wednesday. The law will take effect July 1.

Written by Brendan Farrington | Saturday, March 12, 2016

“Bill sponsor Sen. Aaron Bean acknowledged last year’s ruling is the reason for his bill, which passed on a 23-15 vote with only Republicans in favor and Democrats joined by only one Republican in opposition.”   Florida law will specify that churches can’t be forced to marry same-sex couples under a bill the Legislature send...

Gender Ideology Harms Children

The American College of Pediatricians urges educators and legislators to reject all policies that condition children to accept as normal a life of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex.

Written by Michelle A. Cretella, Quentin Van Meter, and Paul McHugh | Thursday, March 10, 2016

No one is born with a gender. Everyone is born with a biological sex. Gender (an awareness and sense of oneself as male or female) is a sociological and psychological concept; not an objective biological one. No one is born with an awareness of themselves as male or female; this awareness develops over time and,... Continue Reading

Ken Myers: Cultural Heart Attack

The decline of American culture and what it means for the future

Written by Marvin Olasky | Thursday, March 10, 2016

The separation idea is an invention of modernity. The word secular used to mean temporal, not theology-free. Only in the 20th century does secular mean a space that is free from theology: God or the gods have nothing to do with this space. Christians need to understand that as long as we accept the conventional... Continue Reading

Why are Palestinian Christians Fleeing?

Why is the Muslim sector of Bethlehem growing while the Christian sector is falling?

Written by Robert Nicholson | Tuesday, March 8, 2016

“It is no coincidence that Bethlehem was mostly Christian until the 1990s. Until then, Bethlehem was ruled directly by Israel through a military administration. Although they were not full citizens of Israel, Palestinian Christians (and Muslims) could travel freely inside the country, visit the beach, and shop in Jewish neighborhoods. That all changed in the... Continue Reading

Robert Jeffress: Christians Not Voting for Donald Trump If He’s the Nominee Are Foolish, Prideful

Jeffress has been a promoter of the GOP presidential frontrunner from the early days of his campaign

Written by Leonardo Blair | Tuesday, March 8, 2016

“I believe any Christian who would sit at home and not vote for the Republican nominee … that person is being motivated by pride rather than principle and I think it would be a shame for people to allow Hillary Clinton four or eight years in the White House,” he said.   Pastor Robert Jeffress,...

Alabama Supreme Court Rejects U. S. Supreme Court’s Marriage Opinion

In a 170-page ruling, the Alabama Supreme Court rejected the U.S. Supreme Court’s marriage opinion, labeling it ‘illegitimate’ and without legal or precedential authority, by issuing its own Judgment.

Written by Liberty Counsel | Sunday, March 6, 2016

“The Alabama Supreme Court has openly rejected the U.S. Supreme Court’s 5-4 marriage opinion, labeling it ‘illegitimate’ and without legal or precedential authority. This is a clear victory for the rule of law and an historic decision by the Alabama Supreme Court. The Judgement makes permanent the Alabama Supreme Court’s order prohibiting probate judges from...

Undiluted Calvinism, Christian Education and Local Government – Today’s Letters and Reports in the Press!

When the church just becomes a “spiritual” arm of the state, then it will inevitably decline

Written by David Robertson | Saturday, March 5, 2016

“I like my Christianity in the same way I like my whisky: undiluted. Watered-down Christianity is weak, insipid and tasteless. Politicians will love it, but when the salt loses its saltiness, nothing remains for it except to be thrown out.”   Kenny MacAskill in his very interesting and stimulating article (“I might not ‘do religion’ but...

Heirs to 2 Evangelical Empires Take Different Paths Into Political Fray

Franklin Graham insists the 2016 tour is nonpartisan and consistent with his father’s vision

Written by Alan Blinder | Saturday, March 5, 2016

“Jerry Falwell Jr., whose father, the Rev. Jerry Falwell, founded Liberty University and the Moral Majority movement, and the Rev. Franklin Graham, whose father, Billy Graham, is estimated to have preached the Gospel to millions of people, now find themselves forces of their own. Both are trying to balance their own identities, and their father’s... Continue Reading
