My Dad: 80
Tomorrow my Dad turns 80. He was born December 3, 1939 during World War 2 in Danville, IL, and grew up on a farm in Foster, Indiana along the Wabash River without running water, electricity, or indoor plumbing. My Dad has been the most important person in my life. He and my mom moved in […]
More On Ghosting
Part One Part Two The Irish Independent is the most prominent newspaper in Ireland, and yesterday, November 29, 2019, in that paper, Larissa Nolan writes about ghosting in an article entitled, “Into thin air: How ‘ghosting’ became the new normal”: We’ve all heard about ghosting: the spineless trend of severing a relationship by […]
A Hearing or Listening the First Rightful Response as Thanksgiving
Deuteronomy 5:7 begins the ten commandments in Deuteronomy: “Thou shalt have none other gods before me.” There are at least two and maybe three stages before one arrives at that first command from God. One, God does a lot of good stuff for people. That first one could be divided into more than that one […]
Faithless Music? The Belief in a Transcendent God Requires Objective Beauty
Part One A material universe exists. Modern science shows that it is not eternal. It had a beginning a finite time ago out of nothing. It is absurd to to say that the universe just popped into existence out of nothing. The existence of the universe requires a transcendent cause that must be spiritual, because […]
The Continuous Practice of Sin in Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism with Its Music
In the preface to Geistliches Gesangbuchlein, Martin Luther wrote (16th century): Young people. . . should and must receive an education in music as well as in the other arts if we are to wean them away from carnal and lascivious songs and interest them in what is good and wholesome.

‘I Disobey and Dishonor My Parents Because Jesus Saved Me’: More on Virtual Christianity
Part One Part Two In Romans 14:10 Paul says, “[F]or we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.” In 2 Corinthians 5:10, he says the similar: For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he […]
You Don’t Care About God’s Standard or God’s Approval: More on Virtual Christianity
Part One Justification by faith brings the “in Christ” position for the believer. “In Christ” the believer is approved before God. That’s how someone is saved by faith. In that way, justification by faith brings approval in Christ. Christ did everything the Father wanted Him to do. He wanted to do it and He did […]
Christians Who Weaponize Secular Psychiatry: Ghosting Again and then Narcissism
What anyone who claims to be a Christian should know by now is that modern psychiatry isn’t science. It can’t be trusted as an assessment of human behavior. It’s essentially a product of modernism, which denies the supernatural or divine intervention. It prefers a human interpretation of everything. Romans 1 calls this suppressing the truth […]
Virtual Christian Living or Your Christian Brain in a Vat: The Avoidance or Corruption of Biblical Sanctification
Listen to my session from the 2019 Word of Truth Conference. As an addenda to that one, listen to this session from James Bronsveld and this one from Thomas Ross. ********************** Imagine a Christian life you don’t actually live. Jesus lives it for you.
