How Christians lost (yet may regain) their strategic minds

FOR THE LORD’S DAY

For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.(Mark 8:38, cp. Luke 9:26)

For I am not ashamed of the gospel… (Romans 1:16)

Then [...]

Are Christians obliged to be fodder for evil?

FOR THE LORD’S DAY
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that [...]

Bullying ‘bible thumpers’, O’Reilly rejects God-endowed rights

For people who pretend that Fox News isn’t part of the elitist faction media’s network of deception, Bill O’Reilly’s deceitful characterization of those he called “bible thumpers” on the issue of homosexual marriage ought to be a moment of truth. O’Reilly claimed that “opponents of same-sex marriage have been unable to do anything but “thump [...]

Why De Facto Government (Tyranny) is replacing the Constitution

In my WND column today I apply the logic of America’s founders to the Constitutional issue raised by Obama’s refusal to defend the DOMA signed into law during the Clinton era.

Rubio at CPAC: a Judas kiss for Declaration principle?

 Judas…drew near to Jesus to kiss him, but Jesus said to him, “Judas would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss? (Luke 22:48)
I read an article some months ago entitled “Marco Rubio: a politician of principle.” Its author quoted from a speech Rubio gave to the 2012 Susan B. Anthony list Gala in [...]

Speaking truth in love-What did Jesus do?

FOR THE LORD’S DAY

Not long ago I read an article with the headline “Softening Rhetoric on Homosexuality”. It began with the observation that “engaging a younger generation about the biblical teachings on homosexuality may be today’s greatest challenge for the evangelical church.” The article paraphrased a view it ascribed to “political columnist and talk show [...]

Obama’s inauguration speech morphs liberty into tyranny

People who have read and pondered the articles I’ve posted here over the years have undoubtedly noticed my consistent reliance on the principles and logic of the American Declaration of Independence. Many of America’s self-professed conservative political leaders fail to think through and uphold the Declaration’s tenets. This may yet prove to be a flaw [...]

Is the question about evil for God or for us?

FOR THE LORD’S DAY
On Friday last Fox news asked two people who were on hand to participate in a debate on some other religious topic, to address the issue supposedly raised by the kindergarten massacre in Connecticut- “Why does God allow evil?”  In his response one of the participants suggested that, with those wounded by [...]
