    The devil’s latest tactic to keep us from the Bible

    Today, Satan has a fresh new tactic, and it is working marvelously. I’m not talking about suppressing English translations of the Bible.

  • The difference between the political spirit and the Christian spirit

    The difference between the political spirit and the Christian spirit

    While this is certainly true, it is also true that religious belief has been merged with political belief. Yet, in many ways, the Christian spirit is very different than the political spirit. The two often make a very bad mix.

  • Prophecies are not simply newspaper headlines in advance

    Prophecies are not simply newspaper headlines in advance

  • How utterly absurd so-called pro-life evangelicals for Biden feel betrayed, used

    How utterly absurd so-called pro-life evangelicals for Biden feel betrayed, used

    Seriously? They “feel used and betrayed” because the pro-abortion president they helped put in office did exactly what he said he would do? They “feel used and betrayed” because he carried out his campaign promises? They “feel used and betrayed” because he stayed true to the Democratic Platform?

  • Dear Bethany Christian Services: Please reconsider gay adoption decision

    Dear Bethany Christian Services: Please reconsider gay adoption decision

    Since when does a poll determine morality? Is abortion moral because a significant percentage of Americans believe it to be so? And since when did the viewpoint of “self-identified Christians” have any bearing on the truth of the Word?

  • America's greatest need: A healthy Church

    America's greatest need: A healthy Church

    “It was when Wilberforce roused the church of God, and when the church of God addressed herself to the conflict, then she tore the evil thing to pieces. I have been amused with what Wilberforce said the day after they passed the Act of Emancipation. He merrily said to a friend when it was all done: ‘Is there not something else we can abolish?”

  • This is what idolatry looks like

    This is what idolatry looks like

    Many others were quick to compare the golden statue of Trump with the golden calf that the Israelites worshiped. (Ironically, in synagogues around the world this week, religious Jews will read that very account of Israel worshiping the golden calf.)

  • Why do 1 in 6 Gen Z adults identify as LGBT?

    Why do 1 in 6 Gen Z adults identify as LGBT?

    Put another way, do you really think that kids who were exposed to drag queens when they were toddlers might not be more inclined to wonder if they themselves might want to be drag queens too?
