If you are a Christian in America, online, and haven’t heard about The Chosen: Last Supper yet, I congratulate you. I have been seeing advertisements constantly for the past couple of months. It hits theaters on April 28, and I have been told I should get my entire church to go see it and also…
“We have no creed but the Bible,” said the preachers of my youth. Indeed, this is the mantra of many fundamentalists groups and, often, groups which spin off into heresy and cultism. That does not prove it to be an incorrect statement, but that is a fact. What are you saying when you claim, “I…
My family and I watched a lecture last night by Greg Bahnsen. Judging from a reference to Terminator 2: Judgment Day, which had just come out, he must have delivered the lecture in 1991. Sadly, Bahnsen died young from medical complications to a surgery at age 47 in 1995, so he is no longer with…
With the recent appointment examination of Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense, the main theme of his examination (besides being pummeled for past sexual and alcoholic sins) regarded his views of women in the military. Incensed lawmakers pushed Hegseth to promise he would not remove women from the military, but Hegseth eloquently navigated their (less-than-clever)…
Back in 2017, I think it was, I began a through-the-Bible-in-one-year reading program on a little phone app called “YouVersion.” At the time, several reading plans were available, and I chose one. What helped me at the time was a little number in the top corner, which kept track of how many consecutive days I…
Do you freeze up when someone asks you to lead a Bible study? When you consider studying the Bible on your own, do you feel confused or lost as to where to start? Bible study should not feel scary or impossible. It is, rather, quite possible with the application of a few simple tools. When…
It should be well known that Christians are the most peaceful of all people. We do not wield literal swords and guns to fight for our spiritual cause. Many Christians over the years have submitted meekly and humbly to sometimes horrific deaths because they refused to renounce the name of Jesus. They followed Jesus. As…
Many are in a tizzy over Governor Jeff Landry’s signing of a new law mandating a poster-size copy of the Ten Commandments hang in every taxpayer-supported classroom. Opponents are melting down around the country, promising legal pushback. From an AP News article: “We’re worried about public school families and students in Louisiana… They come from…
They say we must keep the Christian God out of the public schools because it’s not fair to families of other faiths to teach just one God. After all, Christians would hate for Allah to be taught in school, right? They tell us to keep all gods out of the public school system and we…
How many times have I said something (and heard preaching) about the “old law” referring to the Old Testament? The Bible certainly does use the terms “old covenant” and “new covenant.” See Matthew 26.28, 1 Corinthians 11.25, 2 Corinthians 3.4–18, Hebrews 8.7–9.1, Hebrews 9.15, and Hebrews 12.24 for references to the “new covenant.” The only…
