The Left Wants To End the Separation of Church and State

If there is one thing consistent about the tides of the culture wars, it is that whenever one side is emboldened, it inevitably leads to overreach

Written by Ben Domenech | Sunday, July 26, 2015

The push for gay marriage always included a significant portion of people who simply wanted fairness, as they saw it. But this fairness is not enough for the secular Left, which has become more honest about their ultimate goal: the eradication of religion’s place at the center of American public life. They will in the... Continue Reading

Moral and Spiritual Erosion In Two Generations

In the first generation the shift was from objective truth to pluralism; in the second generation it was from morality to immorality.

Written by John J. Murray | Sunday, July 26, 2015

Our society prides itself in being liberal, multi-cultural, inclusive and tolerant but it is a society that is empty and has in it the seeds of its own destruction. There is inevitably a loss of character. Image and appearance assume the functions that character and morality once had. Virtue has been replaced by values.  ... Continue Reading

Jesus Loves The Little Children

In the ancient world, it was uniquely the Jewish people who prohibited abortion and infanticide. Christians have always opposed killing children, whether outside or inside the womb.

Written by Kevin DeYoung | Thursday, July 23, 2015

Despite the muddled arguments of progressive Christian groups and denominations (whose obfuscation with language is positively Orwellian), opposition to abortion and infanticide is not simply one position for Christians, it is the Christian position.   Oddly enough, it’s sometimes progressives who are most eager to move the culture backward. As we reflect in horror at the utter callousness... Continue Reading

Talking Past Each Other: “Love Wins” vs. Human Nature

The anthropological and "Love Wins" views talk past each other because one side is interested in human nature, but the other is not.

Written by Ralph Hancock | Thursday, July 23, 2015

There remain two views on the question of marriage, but they keep talking past each other. One holds that “love wins,” so one shouldn’t stand in the way of love. The other respects the anthropological truth about marriage.   Times have been more trying than usual for supporters of marriage—that is, the institution that brings... Continue Reading

Is Polygamy Next In The Marriage Debate?

The first legal challenge involving polygamy came last week from a man in Montana

Written by Sarah Pulliam Bailey | Tuesday, July 21, 2015

“It’s about marriage equality,” Collier told the Associated Press. “You can’t have this without polygamy.” A county civil litigator Kevin Gillen said he was reviewing Montana’s bigamy laws and expected to send a formal response to Collier by this week.”   The Supreme Court’s decision in June that legalized same-sex marriage across the country has unleashed a renewed...

Fragile Foundation of Marriage Equality, Part 4

The goal of this piece is to calm any apocalyptic fears among Christians who hold to the traditional, biblical view of marriage.

Written by Aaron Vriesman | Sunday, July 19, 2015

By showing the shaky foundation of the “gay rights” or “marriage equality” movement, hopefully believers will take a more sober approach to the rapid changes in society. Changes can take unexpected turns and backfire. This socio-historical analysis is not meant to be predictive, because new circumstances can arise overnight, and we serve a God who...

Planned Parenthood Defends Dead Baby “Donation”

After undercover sting reveals practice of harvesting baby body parts for research, abortion giant claims it doesn’t profit

Written by Courtney Crandall | Sunday, July 19, 2015

The video presents an edited conversation between two actors posing as tissue buyers and Deborah Nucatola, senior director of medical services at PPFA. Based on the footage, CMP alleges Planned Parenthood has sold fetal tissue harvested from abortions that bear similarities to the illegal partial-birth abortion procedure. (Late-term abortions tend to produce more valuable parts... Continue Reading

40 Answers and 2 Questions for Matthew Vines

In these 40 questions, Vines failed to ask the only one that really matters, namely, "What does the Bible say about homosexual practice?"

Written by Michael Brown | Sunday, July 19, 2015

Do you believe that the moral distinction between lust and love matters for LGBT people’s romantic relationships? Not anymore than the distinction holds in matters of fornication and adultery, meaning, many fornicating couples love each other, but their relationship is still sinful, and many adulterers truly fall in love with their adulterous partner, yet their relationship...

Evangelicals: Pope’s Proposals Likely To Hurt Poor

Pope Francis' proposals to remedy climate change will likely harm those he most wants to help

Written by Tom Strode | Thursday, July 16, 2015

Such policies, Beisner wrote, would reduce “access to the abundant, affordable, reliable energy absolutely necessary for any society to rise out of poverty, and available now and for the foreseeable future almost entirely from fossil fuels.” More than 85 percent of all energy use in the world is from fossil fuels, he wrote.   WASHINGTON...

Bishop: To Declare That Jesus Christ Is The Son Of God Could One Day Be Criminalized In U.K.

A top Anglican theologian has warned that traditional Christian teaching, such as believing that Jesus is the son of God, could become “criminalized” in the United Kingdom.

Written by Theodore Shoebat | Thursday, July 16, 2015

The Telegraph reported on Monday that the Rev. Mike Ovey, a former lawyer and now principal of Oak Hill Theological College in London, was referring to British PM David Cameron’s new “Extremism Disruption Orders” proposal. Ovey warned that the measures would be a “disaster area’ for mainstream religious teaching.   Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby... Continue Reading
