Christianity, it’s different

Christianity is different from other world religions. Most of them can survive their sacred texts being found to contain conflicting details. What’s most important to them are the broad generalities they teach, not the particulars of their founders’ lives. But Christianity holds itself to such a high standard — 100% accuracy (a standard established by God Himself) — that the details of the life and death of Jesus Christ are critical to the validity of Christianity’s entire message. In fact,

A Battle That Didn’t Begin in 2023

Israel declaring war on Hamas is much closer to the end of the story than the beginning. We have a tendency to snapshot the latest incidents and draw conclusions based on recent events. Using that philosophy in the case of Israel and Palestine or Israel and Gaza, or Israel and Hamas leaves out crucial background information that will ultimately lead us to form incorrect conclusions.  This battle didn’t start on October 7, 2023, or in 1973, or in 1948. This

Pride’s Eternal Consequences

Pride is a very serious sin. It lay at the heart of Satan’s fall (1 Timothy 3:6) and was likely the sin that motivated Eve to eat the forbidden fruit (and was also likely Adam’s sin in following Eve’s rebellion). It is frequently mentioned in Scripture as one of the chief sins God hates and is one of the sins that God “gives people up to” when they suppress the knowledge of Him. Celebrating pride is especially abhorrent. It endorses

Eve of Destruction – Part 3

In the last of this series, I would like to focus on where too many of our U.S. citizens stand regarding Jesus. Sometimes, even Christians who supposedly believe in Jesus as our Lord and Savior, need a reality check.  Mark Hall of Casting Crowns wrote words that are sobering and should wake up the country to its lackadaisical attitude when it comes to where our lives should be focused, where our priorities should lie, and not just on Sundays.  This

Doing Away With “Race”

Even though it’s been decades since Martin Luther King Jr.’s work for civil rights and fighting discrimination, prejudice is still alive. Why? Well, because racism is a consequence of sin in a fallen world infused with evolutionary thinking. The consequences of racism on a personal and social level are huge. But what do we do about it? Here is some truth and practical and personal application points from chapter five of the book One Race, One Blood by Ken Ham

Can I Be A Christian and Believe in Evolution?

This question arises frequently these days as evolution is taught in public schools across the U.S. Some Christians think it’s irrelevant whether they believe in Biblical Creation as long as they accept and abide by the Gospel. But is it?  Here is some perspective inspired by Joel Tay, a Scientist at Creation Ministries International, that shows this is a more serious matter than some Christians think. The belief that it doesn’t matter what you believe about biblical creation infers a

When Calamity Strikes

In these times of COVID-19, here is some perspective – a bigger picture – that can ease the burden. First, let’s look at what C.S. Lewis said about calamity in a sermon he preached in 1939 in the early stages of War World II: “I think it important to try to see the present calamity in a true perspective, The war creates no absolutely new situation: it simply aggravates the permanent human situation so that we can no longer ignore

Border Trash and Illegal Immigration

One of the most direct environmental impacts of illegal immigration is one that’s clearly observable to anyone who lives at the southwest border — the thousands of pounds of trash that are discarded and left behind by aliens and their hired human smugglers. Border trash refers to items discarded by persons involved in illegal immigration such as plastic containers, clothing, backpacks, foodstuffs, vehicles, bicycles and paper. It can also consist of human waste and sometimes medical products. Accumulated border trash
