Douglas Wilson: “I Am Not A Separatist”
The Moscow Mood One landscape of the evangelical internet blew up recently when evangelical reformed (Presbyterian?) Kevin DeYoung, leader in The Gospel Coalition, wrote a scathing article against Douglas Wilson and his Christian enterprise in Moscow, Idaho. He entitled it: “On Culture War, Doug Wilson, and the Moscow Mood.” Now Wilson has answered him with […]
The Capitulation on the Biblical Doctrine of the Perfect Preservation of Scripture
Does the Bible suddenly change its meaning? When God speaks on a certain subject in His Word, do we take what He says as the truth or do we conform it to naturalistic or humanistic presuppositions? I ask these question especially here about the biblical doctrine of the perfect preservation of scripture. Master’s Seminary and […]
The KJV’s “Translators to the Reader” King James Onlyism Refuted?
In the James White / Thomas Ross debate “The Legacy Standard Bible, as a representative of modern English translations based upon the UBS/NA text, is superior to the KJV, as a representative of TR-based Bible translations” James R. White made the astonishing claim that the “Translators to the Reader” refutes King James Onlyism. I touched […]
My Take on the Complicated World Scene That Includes Ukraine, Russia, and Israel (part four)
Part One Part Two Part Three What Is the Greatest Danger? A good question to ask when evaluating United States domestic and foreign policy is “what is the greatest danger to the country?” When I grew up during the Cold War, the Soviet Union was a monumental threat to the security of the United […]
My Take on the Complicated World Scene That Includes Ukraine, Russia, and Israel (part three)

Good free books with Logos and Accordance Bible Software
I wrote a post in 2021 about how one can get free books with Accordance Bible software and Logos Bible software. I do not intend to repeat the content of that post, but I wanted to point out that they often can be quite good (and even when they are not, the price is right–$0). […]
My Take on the Complicated World Scene That Includes Ukraine, Russia, and Israel (part two)
Part One Israel-Palestinian Conflict From a biblical viewpoint, the Israel-Palestinian conflict started when Abraham sinned with Hagar, who bore Ishmael. Ishmael fathers the Arab people and Isaac the Jewish. Complicating this further, 93% of Arabs are Muslim of some kind. Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook in “Kill a Jew – Go to Heaven: The Perception […]
My Take on the Complicated World Scene That Includes Ukraine, Russia, and Israel
Division Over Israel What’s going on in foreign policy in the world is one of the most interesting variations of division that I’ve seen in my lifetime. Positions divide normal allies and unify former enemies. It’s a challenge even in theological circles with diverse interpretations of biblical prophecy. The event of October 7, 2023 with […]
Is the King James Version Too Hard to Understand? (White 11)
The James White / Thomas Ross Preservation / King James Version Only debate examined the topic: “The Legacy Standard Bible, as a representative of modern English translations based upon the UBS/NA text, is superior to the KJV, as a representative of TR-based Bible translations.” In our debate, James White claimed that the Authorized, King James […]
What Is the “Mind Virus” Of Which Elon Musk Alludes?
Elon Musk and the Mind Virus Civilizational Threat Not until very recently did I hear the terminology, “mind virus,” and it came from Elon Musk (the wealthiest man in the world) in various podcast interviews.
