Playing Chicken with the Lord’s Day

Text, tradition, and the light of nature tell us that New York is wrong to force Chick-fil-A to open on Sundays.

Written by Timon Cline | Sunday, February 18, 2024

In December, New York lawmakers introduced a bill that would require all restaurants operating at rest stops on the Thruway, the state highway system, to be open seven days a week. Chick-fil-A, famous for its Christian ownership and closure on Sunday, has restaurants at nine, and soon to be 10, of the 27 rest stop locations in... Continue Reading

Social Justice Warriors: Rice Christians Revisited

"Conveyor belts" of fake conversions and immigration scams.

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Friday, February 16, 2024

Consider some recent headlines that really should concern us. One of them says this: “We may have been scammed by asylum seekers, admits Church of England”. Another runs as follows: “Whistleblower Exposes Alleged Asylum Seeker Baptism Scam in Church of England”. The first piece begins this way: The Church of England has admitted for the...

A Slow Poison

Euthanasia in Holland and Belgium shows that “free choice” ends up devouring itself.

Written by Bethel McGrew | Wednesday, February 14, 2024

Once allowances have been made for terminally ill children, the question will inevitably be asked, “What about physically suffering children who aren’t terminally ill?”…This is how the culture of death works its slow poison. This is how voices of death are elevated as kind and compassionate, while voices of life are drowned out as inhumane,... Continue Reading

The 7 Most Outrageous Moments of the World Economic Forum 2024

WEF concluded its Wednesday forum on “Climate and Nature” by inviting a shaman to carry out a pagan ritual for the healing of the planet, because “the healing is spiritual.”

Written by Ben Johnson | Friday, February 9, 2024

The 2024 World Economic Forum became a coming-out party, displaying the WEF’s love of paganism. WEF concluded its Wednesday forum on “Climate and Nature” by inviting a shaman to carry out a pagan ritual for the healing of the planet, because “the healing is spiritual.” The moderator, Gim Huay Neo, closed the discussion by inviting “a very...

Education, Not Indoctrination

Should we “just teach the facts”?

Written by Ben C. Dunson | Tuesday, February 6, 2024

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.

Written by Denny Burk | Tuesday, February 6, 2024

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.

Written by Vanessa Taylor | Tuesday, February 6, 2024

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.

Written by Robert A. J. Gagnon | Monday, February 5, 2024

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.

Written by Rick Plasterer | Wednesday, January 31, 2024

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...

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.

Written by Ben Zornes | Tuesday, January 30, 2024

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...
