The Spectrum on Israel Accepted in the MAGA Movement (part four)
Part One Part Two Part Three Anyone remotely knowledgeable of the MAGA movement understands “America First” as another name for the movement. Making America first is part of making America great again. This does also relate to the former foreign policy of the Republican Party, what people call, “neoconservative.” One side, however, […]
The Spectrum on Israel Accepted in the MAGA Movement (part three)
Part One Part Two Starting with the worst of the positions on the spectrum on Israel in the MAGA movement, let’s say moving left to right in your mind’s eye, is, first, a virulent antisemitism, and, second, anti-Israel. As I and I’m sure many others see it, the anti-Israel position, contrasted still from antisemitism, […]
Drawing the Line on Masculinity: Getting a Male Role Back (Part Four)

“I Don’t Know-Know, But I Know”: The Danger of the Internal Compass
Expression of Candace Owens In characterizing the content of her conspiracy theories concerning the Charlie Kirk murder, Candace Owens likes to say, “I don’t know-know, but I know.” This phrase gives this popular podcaster deniability if and when the truth comes. She can always say, “I didn’t say I knew, as in know-know.” It seems […]
The Vanity of the Self: A Biblical Refutation of Modern Wellness Culture
The Self-Centeredness of the Inward Turn In a recent critique titled “‘Wellness’ culture is empty without service to others,” Jemima Kelly observes a profound paradox in the modern pursuit of health: the more we focus on our own “well-being” — our steps, our sleep cycles, and our “self-care” rituals — the more hollow and anxious […]
What Is The Unity of the Spirit in the Bond of Peace?
Paul instructs, which means he requires, unity in Ephesians 4, writing in verse 3: Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. The Context of the Church To obey this teaching, the church at Ephesus to whom Paul writes must understand unity, keeping it, and then the bond of peace. […]
The Spectrum on Israel Accepted in the MAGA Movement (part two)
Part One MAGA does not agree on Israel. Israel is not a unifying issue in the MAGA movement. In fact, the issue of Israel creates the most division in the coalition. Will that disagreement destroy the movement or weaken it to the extent that it is not strong enough to repel the coalition of the […]
The Spectrum on Israel Accepted in the MAGA Movement
Arguing for Allowance of This Diversity I have a particular position on Israel both theologically and politically. This viewpoint, I believe, is the scripturally correct one, which I can and do defend. I want other people to take my belief on this and I also want to persuade them of it. However, I take another […]
The Historical Attestation of the Christmas Story
Consider This Related Post Historical Corroboration Matthew, Luke, and John give the birth narratives for the Lord Jesus Christ. John does not include a traditional nativity story, instead offering a “prologue” that focuses on the theological incarnation — the “Word becoming flesh” (John 1:14). Scholars defend their historical accuracy by highlighting many compelling lines of […]
Drawing the Line on Masculinity: Getting a Male Role Back (Part Three)
