Biden Says You are a 'Terrorist'

The Internet has a long memory. Joe Biden has an Internet trail of gaffes with praises for segregationists and more sinister racial problems. In a 1975 Senate hearing, the legendary civil rights lawyer Jack Greenberg had something to say to freshman Sen. Joe Biden. Greenberg, longtime director of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, took Biden to task for sponsoring a bill that would limit the power of c [...]

Climate Alarmism is the Left's Apocalypticism

On Rush Limbaugh’s program yesterday (6.24.19), Rush spent some time discussing the HBO show Big Little Lies and how a teacher was scaring children that the world was going to end soon because of Climate Change. One student is so distraught that she hides in a closet and faints. “She’s lying unconscious in the closet. She has attempted to escape the classroom. So they find her, they go [...]

The Self-Destructive Nature of Leftist Culture: Guns Aren't the Problem

Twenty-six-year-old rookie police officer “Tara O’Sullivan had been shot with a rifle while responding to a domestic violence call. As O’Sullivan and other police were helping a female victim gather her belongings and leave the home where the domestic violence allegedly occurred, the assailant opened fire.” The aftermath demonstrates how our society’s moral foundation has eroded. Offic [...]

Madonna Claims Jesus Would Support Abortion

Madonna wants to meet with Pope Francis to discuss abortion. She claims that Jesus would support a “woman’s right to choose,” that abortion does not end a human life. She needs to stick to singing and dancing. She doesn’t know what she’s talking about even if she calls herself Madonna. “Madonna was raised Catholic and although she was later excommunicated from the church, she tol [...]

Reparations Will Only Turn Poor Blacks into Bigger Slaves to the State

I don’t owe anyone anything except what I’ve contracted to pay. I’ve never owned a slave. I’ve never denied a black person a job. Who are these Democrats to demand reparations from me? Trillions of dollars have been paid out to poor people for nearly 60 years. It’s only made many of them poorer and slaves to the State. They live on Uncle Sam’s Plantation. Democrats and Republicans are guilty of de [...]

The Importance and Sacredness of the Here and Now

On June 5-7, 2019, I spoke at the Biblical Worldview Student Conference held at Milligan College in Johnson City, TN. Two of my messages were on eschatology. I emphasized the importance of biblical optimism during attack and persecution. Young people need to believe there is a future waiting for them, that not everything is gloom and doom and escapism. To be overly preoccupied with the future at t [...]

Bible Prophecy in the White House

Mike Pompeo told an audience in Cairo that “he had come to the region as ‘as an evangelical Christian.” That’s OK. Glad to hear it. But then there’s this: In his speech at the American University in Cairo, Pompeo said that in his state department office: “I keep a Bible open on my desk to remind me of God and his word, and the truth.” Again, good for him. Here’s the disturbing part: [...]

Democrat Calls for Implementation of ‘Democratic' Socialism “By Any Means Necessary.”

Candi CdeBaca — who won a runoff election for a seat on Denver’s City Council describes herself as “a Democratic socialist.” She said, “Communism is when the government owns everything; socialism is when people have control of the distribution of ownership. People have more power.” She wants to implement socialism “by any means necessary.” That was Fidel Castro’s methodology. “Malcolm X also [...]

Hodge v. Horton: Two-Kingdom Schizophrenia

Michael Horton, the J. Gresham Machen Professor of Theology and Apologetics at Westminster Seminary (California) since 1998, Editor-in-Chief of Modern Reformation magazine, and President and host of the syndicated radio broadcast, The White Horse Inn, describes Reconstructionists as “zealous postmillennialists” who “are in danger of turning law into gospel” and “confusing salvation and earthly uto [...]

Should Presidents Use the Bible to Take Inauguration Oath?

We need to stop presidents from taking their constitutional oath with their hand on the Bible, swearing before God that they will uphold the Constitution all the while knowing they won’t. Their campaigns and policies tell us that they will not follow the Constitution to the letter. The Constitution is a prop. It’s no different with Congress and Supreme Court Justices. Taking an oath before God is [...]

Are There Verses in the Bible that Support Abortion?

Michael Brown has published a good article on abortion and the Bible: “Are There Really Verses in the Bible That Support Abortion?” It’s worthwhile reading. It’s a relatively short article and covers a lot of ground. He writes the following about a critical text about abortion: The question, then, is simple: Does the Torah consider the unborn baby to be a human life, in whi [...]

Ray Comfort Claims the Bible Prophesies that 'Russia Will Attack Israel'

A few years ago, I wrote a series of articles about Ray Comfort’s comments on Bible prophecy. You can read them here, here, here, and here. I spoke with Ray about his views on prophecy. He was receptive to my critique and told me that he would not be addressing the topic again. It didn’t take him long to forget what he said and produce the film Noah and the Last Days (see my response here). [...]

‘Handmaid’s Tale’ Author Says It’s ‘Slavery to Force Women to Have Children they Can’t Afford’

Margaret Atwood, the author of The Handmaid’s Tale (1985) that’s in its third TV season on Hulu, is a radical secularist and abortion advocate. This is how Wikipedia describes the plotline of the series: In the near future, fertility rates collapse as a result of sexually transmitted diseases and environmental pollution. With this chaos, the totalitarian, theonomic government of Gilead estab [...]

How Ray Comfort Should Not Answer a Skeptic: Part 1

Ray Comfort has put himself on the front lines defending the Christian faith by confronting the spirit of the age and those who promote it, especially atheists. One of the recurring arguments used by atheists against the reliability of the Bible is the claim that it falsely predicted the return of Jesus within a generation. A skeptic named Jonathan asked the following question on his blog: “Could [...]

How Ray Comfort Should Not Answer a Skeptic: Part 2

A skeptic named Jonathan asked the following question on Ray Comfort’s blog: “Could anyone of you believers tell me when the end times will happen, besides soon? It seems to me that the end times have been preached by man ever since the time they created their fictional deities.” Ray’s answer is similar to an article he wrote for Christian Worldview Network. Skeptics have pointed out the prophecy [...]

How Ray Comfort Should Not Answer a Skeptic: Part 3

Bible prophecy is an empirical discipline. It can be tested. Did a prophet’s prediction come to pass as stated? The Bible takes such predictions seriously. A false prediction is a reflection of a prophet’s authority and can have grave consequences: But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in My name which I have not commanded him to speak, or which he speaks in the name of other gods, that [...]

Prophecy Speculation and the Days of Noah

Ray Comfort’s film Noah and the Last Days isn’t so much about Noah and the flood. Instead, it’s a way to introduce the topic of end times’ speculation with the claim that there are 10 signs that are indisputable evidence that we are living in the last days. This is an old overused story. Comfort isn’t the only person referencing Jesus’ use of the Noah story as a jumping off point for prophetic spe [...]

Why Creation and Prophecy Can't be Separated

When I wrote my article “Why Young People are Leaving the Church” I knew it would generate some response. I was taken to task by a few Young Earth Creationists (YEC) because I did not point out the dangers of Old Earth Creationist (OEC) arguments and how they create serious theological problems such as disease and death before the fall. Some OECs have attempted to answer this objection exegeticall [...]

My Thoughts on “Thoughts and Prayers”

Liberals have attacked the use of “thoughts and prayers” when some tragedy strikes. Sometimes there’s nothing that can be done at the moment so people offer a statement of comfort in the only way they can. This does not mean that nothing is to be done. Thoughts, prayers, and well-wishing are not complete until they are backed up with action when there is some action that can be taken. The same is [...]

Hollywood Has Become the Bullies of Those Least Able to Defend Themselves

Self-righteous Hollywood is at it again. Hollywood decries and even runs AD spots denouncing bullying. The following an article titled “Bullying Prevention Month In Hollywood”: We hope you’ve noticed over the past year that we’ve been focusing on bullying and cyberbullying, a confounding national crisis that turns youths’ lives upside down with unimaginable angst and [...]
