Who Are the Most Loving People You Know?
“Love” is one of the most misused and corrupted words in the English vocabulary. Very often when I am evangelizing, I have to give the correct definitions to whole host of words, including the word, gospel. The word “love” in English vocabulary originates from the Bible. It is used now in the English language, but […]
The New Lie of “Authenticity” and the Excuse It Gives Its Adherents to Live Ungodly
Something being authentic sounds great. Authentic leather, not naugahyde. You go to the National Archives in Washington, DC to see the authentic Declaration of Independence, not a cheap copy. That was the meaning of authentic for the early years of my life, what I would have thought the word, authentic, meant. If you buy an […]
Mandatory Vaccination: Stop it Only One Way
Mandatory / Compulsory Vaccination? With COVID-19, there is a renewed call for compulsory or mandatory vaccination. Should vaccines be compelled? I do not believe that the government should force parents to vaccinate their children against their will. In the Bible, parental authority over children is so vast that parents could even bring rebellious children to […]
Disinformation Is the Present Norm In American Culture: Hunter Biden Laptop as a Case Study
The Hunter Biden laptop story from the New York Post manifests the mainstream reality of misinformation and disinformation. I would call it micro-disinformation within the greater macro-disinformation. We live in a world of lies, represented by 2 Corinthians 4:4, “the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not.” Satan is […]
“Proselytizing Should Be Illegal!”
This week going door to door evangelizing, I was talking to an about thirty year old young man, and he wasn’t interested, he said, because of “science,” something I’ve written about here a few times. I wanted him to understand the Bible was science, history, and a true story. I related fulfilled prophecy and mathematical […]
“Come as you are” or “sanctify yourselves”?
Today we hear a great deal about how we should come to church just as we are. I recall a life-size ad that was posted for many weeks at a local mall in Wisconsin. It had a picture of a guy in a T-shirt holding a Bible, a big tattoo visible on his arm, wearing […]
Is “If Something Is True” the Only Criteria for Using Hillsong and Bethel Music? Critique of a John MacArthur Answer
Like many others, I have a cell phone and when I pull up youtube, it feeds me what I might want to see and it showed me the above video, so I watched (by the way, three days after I published this, the original video was taken down, so I put this up in its […]
Analyzing the Values Yard or Window Sign
I don’t know if you see this above sign in your area, but it’s everywhere in coastal cities of the Western United States. In Berkeley and adjacent cities, it’s been at about every house or yard for a few years. Here in Oregon, I saw one on our street in our neighborhood too. I picked […]
The “harvest is plenteous”: A Promise People Will Always be Saved in Matthew 9:35-38?
“The harvest truly is plenteous,” Matthew 9:37. Is this a promise that there will always be people who will be converted when the gospel is preached? Such a view is common among advocates of Keswick theology. For example, John VanGelderen on the Revival Focus blog wrote: Jesus said, “The harvest truly is plenteous.” The harvest […]
Protests and Preaching / Prayer Unequal in California: You Can’t Go to Church, But You Can Violate the Law in Leftist Protests
Yesterday I took the following short video in downtown San Francisco of radical leftist protesters blocking a street–it is slightly over a minute long, and can be seen on YouTube, or you can watch the embedded version below: People illegally blocking the street for a long time in their cars is fine; there were no […]
