Through Isaiah, God condemned entire nations because of rampant evil. He punished His chosen people—Judah and Israel—but He also punished all the surrounding nations. Isaiah presented oracles against Babylon (Isaiah 13–14), Assyria (Isaiah 14.24–27), Philistia (Isaiah 14.28–32), Moab (Isaiah 15–16), Damascus (Isaiah 17), Cush and Egypt (Isaiah 18–20), the wilderness of the sea (Isaiah 21.1–10),…

Pride Month – There Is No Neutrality
Not long ago, they told us, “If you say that homosexuality is a sin, you are speaking hate. After all, the homosexuals are not hurting anyone. So please just keep your hatemongering to yourselves so we can all get along.” So we did. Then they said a few minutes later, “Homosexuality is good.” And we…
Jesus: True Friend of Sinners
WWJD with Gay Neighbors? What would Jesus do if He lived next door to a gay couple? What if He met them one day as they were coming out of their apartment? Would He make small talk? Would He act like everything were cool? Would He try to get them to like Him and be…
Why I’m Continuing to Boycott Target
CNN Business posted an article on Wednesday, May 24, 2023, titled “Target removing some Pride merchandise after anti-LGBTQ threats against staff.” Target says their employees have received threats by an anti-LBGT campaign which has “impacted their sense of safety and well-being.” In response to these violent threats (which remain unsubstantiated, but are uncalled-for, if true),…
Avoiding Target Through Pride Month
Some podcasters recently informed me that Target stores are already pushing items for “Pride Month” (which is supposed to be June), and they are encouraging a principled boycott to send a clear message that we don’t want this stuff in our faces. We do not need or want companies to champion sexual deviancy. They are…
Satan Hates Sex
Whatever God loves, Satan hates. And Satan hates sex. Someone disagrees: “I thought Satan wants us to have as much sex as possible with as many people as possible. It seems he loves sex.” But God created sex, and when He created it, He pronounced it “very good.” He told the first man and woman…
Getting the Moral Cart before the Gospel Horse
Bekah and I were in our twenties living in a little house in Pinson, AL. Across the street lived a young couple, and we struck up a loose friendship with them.

The Graveyards Will Be Empty
Abraham lost the love of his life in a land which was not his own. At the Lord’s command, he had been wandering about Canaan for the last 60 years or so, with Sarah constantly at his side. In fact, they had been married for most of Sarah’s 127 years. But the time came when…
Respecting God’s Pronouns
Charlotte Clymer is a “trans woman,” a biological man who goes to great lengths to present himself as a woman. Recently, Clymer was interviewed by Joy Reid on MSNBC, and the discussion went, in part, like this: Clymer: I would challenge anyone just to get to know trans people. We are a vibrant, diverse community,…
