The American Vision

The Kayongo family, founder of the Global Soap Project, thinks so. Gary spotlights this organization and encourages Christians to meet real needs while sharing the gospel with a despairing world. [...]

Christian conservatives in Texas have won a huge victory in the battle over history textbooks, much to the dismay and criticism of the left; but is it enough? Gary talks about this and more in today’s show. [...]

In today’s episode, Gary responds to an emailer on the topic of atheism and evolution and the relation to morality. Where does morality come from? Upon who’s authority is morality derived? Did morality always exist? [...]

Yesterday I received an email from Mike. He asked a question about hell. Well, it wasn’t really a question. It was a statement disguised as a question. When I get emails like Mike’s, I am enjoined to follow the words of Proverbs 26:4–5: Do not answer a fool according to his folly, Or you will also be like him. Answer a fool as his folly deserves, That he not be wise in his own eyes. [...]

I knew it would happen. The latest incident in Israel has brought out the prophetic speculators again. “A council of rabbis in Israel says their nation’s conflict with Turkey over a flotilla of ‘aid’ ships headed for the blockaded Gaza Strip controlled by the terrorist Hamas organization just may be the beginning of the ‘Gog and Magog process where the world is against us, but which ends with the [...]

Do you have to have a biblical worldview to be involved in worldview issues? Gary addresses this topic as it relates to healthcare, homosexual marriage and other issues facing us today. Does the Bible limit government involvement in our lives? [...]

In 1936, the Roman dictator Benito Mussolini conquered Ethiopia, and Abebe Bikila conquered Rome twenty years later. As a last minute replacement for the 1960 Olympic team, Bikila was unable to find a comfortable pare of running shoes. His coaches decided he should run the hard surface 26 mile course in his bare feet. Bikila ran in record time and became the first African to win a gold medal. He w [...]

End times “gurus” are pointing to the recent flotilla raid in Israel as fulfillment of the gog and magog prophecies. Gary examines these claims in today’s episode and exposes them in the light of scripture. [...]

In today’s episode Gary takes a look at the crippling effects of incorrect eschatology and how dispensational premillennialism keeps Christians from impacting the world for the Kingdom of Christ. [...]

The liberals got caught flat-footed in the Texas textbook wars. Texas and California drive the content of many textbooks since they have the largest public school populations. Textbook manufactures go where the money is, and less populated states can get what Texas and California decide what goes in their textbooks. It’s possible that a public (government) school in Massachusetts could get history [...]

[caption id=“attachment_2659” align=“alignleft” width=“174” caption=“That’s me sitting on my mother’s lap.”][/caption] Over this Memorial Day weekend, I was watching the 1946 film The Best Years of our Lives. The film is not really a war movie. It follows the lives of three veterans who are returning home from the aftermath of World War I [...]

Terrorist foes are not new to the United States. Two centuries before 9/11, our country sought to protect its citizens from a foe who held allegiance to no country, the Barbary pirates of North Africa. Capturing ships and demanding a ransom for the crew provided a steady income for the pirates. Many seamen became slaves when the ransom couldnt be paid. The newly elected president, Thomas Jefferson [...]

The Texas textbook wars and the role religion has played in the founding of America reminded me of a line of argument put forth by Rob Boston. Boston served as the Assistant Director of Communications for Americans United for Separation of Church and State since 1987 and is now Senior Policy Analyst. He writes that David Josiah Brewer’s The United States: A Christian Nation “is very interesting, a [...]

In this episode, Gary examines the inconsistencies of liberals on the separation of Church and State. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is set forth as an example of liberals’ double standards. [...]

Gary talks about the history of our coins and the purpose of the ridges that some coins have on their edges. [...]

Millions of Christians are fixated on what is going on in Israel today. Ever since Israel became a nation again in 1948, prophecy writers have insisted that this event is a prophetic sign that we are nearing the conclusion of the so-called Church Age. When 1988 came and went (40 years after Israel’s modern founding), a new paradigm had to be found to explain why the rapture had not taken place bef [...]

Today Gary takes a look at the recent controversy over investing in gold. Congressman Anthony Weiner has accused Glenn Beck of fear mongering to get people to invest in gold. [...]

Gary continues yesterday’s topic with a more detailed look at Exodus 21:22 and what it teaches regarding abortion. [...]

Listen to this interview with Gary DeMar conducted by Dr. Michael Brown. It’s obvious that Dr. Brown did his homework. He asks the right questions about government and dominion as they relate to Christians in the public square. Gary shows that government is not exclusively political and dominion is not a top-down imposition from the State. The issue of political involvement is also discussed [...]

Typical of Fred the Atheist, he ignores the details of my answer to his poorly argued explanation of Exodus 21:22–24 (see here) and moves to a different passage of Scripture and an unrelated case. (You can read his comment here. Scroll down.) To add insult to injury, he references the Talmud, which is not Scripture. He did not offer a single rebuttal to the material I presented in my article. Why [...]
