A Good Christian vs a Resurrected Hardcharger

In about an hour, He’ll come off the cross. He’s been there since 9:00 am this morning and it will take only six hours for Him to finally breathe His last. While some will take longer than that to finally pass away, they didn’t even have to break His legs. After the beating He got […]

Reconciliation

Racism is an important topic to discuss in that to be a Racist qualifies you as one of the more detestable human beings on the planet. Wherever it shows up, regardless of to what extent, it needs to be identified and addressed as the godless and evil disposition that it is. A Manufactured Majority and […]

You Have to Talk to Thomas

Apart from first hand knowledge, everything we know about the world is based on what we’ve been told. Provided your resources are credible, you’re on solid ground in the way you formulate your convictions. But when there’s more than one perspective being circulated and it all seems to be based on something authoritative, what might otherwise be […]

Truth

I was watching an interview between Don Lemon and Sheriff David Clarke back in 2016. They were talking about the recent events in Baton Rouge where three police officers were killed and three others were wounded.

Three Questions

I believe the way you answer the following three questions do an excellent job of revealing the “practical reality” of your walk with Christ (Col 3:18).

Even Dangerous

When a liberal is confronted with a situation where a solid solution is working, yet it deviates from their philosophical preferences, rather than attempting to argue their case in the context of a framework that threatens to reveal either their true intentions or their unsustainable solutions, they instead attack the character of the person that […]

An Open Letter to Liberals

Trump has been out of office for several months. But you would think that he was still in the Oval Office given the way the press and the Liberals continue to criticize him. Fact is, whether it was Trump or someone else, it’s his platform and the philosophical scaffolding that supports it that Dems can’t tolerate. […]

When Politicians Become Theologians

When politicians begin to position themselves as society’s theologians, at that point politics is no longer a spiritually neutral arena and the question isn’t whether or not the church is becoming too political. Rather, it’s to what extent is the government attempting to replace the Bible.   That’s why it’s not only appropriate, but it’s […]
