Travel Ban Roll-Out Versus Oroville Dam Evacuation
Want to understand the degree of bias there is in the media and in our communications institutions, which really includes schools? I think 109 were inconvenienced in their travel situations with the travel ban, and the media goes bonkers to make Trump look incompetent. Here in the People’s Republic of California, we have to evacuate […]
An Analysis and Review of Kevin Bauder’s “Landmarkism”, pt. 7: What Marks a True, Actual Church?
Parts One, Two, Three, Four, Five, and Six It’s now been a few months since I last wrote in my analysis of one chapter, “Landmarkism,” in a book, Baptist Distinctives, by Kevin Bauder. The next section in this chapter he entitles, “Baptists and Other Denominations.” Bauder sees what he identifies as Landmarkism as having a […]
The Interpretation of Trump’s Travel Ban and the Interpretation of Scripture
Very big in the news, maybe even huge, has been the travel ban, executive order, issued by President Trump (yes, he’s the president). Executive orders are supposed to be constitutional. I was going to write, “must be constitutional,” but in light of the condition of the judiciary of the United States, it is better right […]
The Budwig Protocol: Deadly Cancer Quackery
The Budwig protocol is, simply, an attempt to cure all types of cancer by eating things like cottage cheese, flaxseed oil, and various fruits and vegetables. While a healthful diet is a wonderful thing, the Budwig protocol simply does not cure cancer. Thinking it will is adopting cancer quackery and turns curable cancer into an […]
Key for an Evangelistic Church
A couple of different places I look every week linked to an article entitled, “15 Reasons Our Churches Are Less Evangelistic Today” by Thom S. Rainier. It’s a good idea to think about why churches aren’t evangelistic. Have you noticed that lists are click bait? People who write top ten lists get attention for their […]
Expectations of God
In perhaps his most famous quote, renowned British Baptist missionary, William Carey, said, “Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God.” A lot of people have heard or read these two statements. Although not scripture, those two sentences have been used to support many different ideas through the years, very often contradictory to […]

Some Cultures Are Better Than Others
Cultures are not neutral in contradiction to postmodernism and multi-culturalism. You don’t get better through diversity, that is, adding or mixing inferior cultures with their superior. Andrew Klavan, in his recent biography, really a personal testimony, The Great Good Thing, communicates one important aspect in the consummation of his conversion experience, was the revelation […]
Donald Trump Doesn’t Care That Your Feelings Are Hurt
I’ve been thinking about the Democrat, celebrity, and media reaction to Donald Trump winning and commencing his presidency. They are telling us that their feelings are hurt. They are hurting. They are scared. It is disconcerting. It is disturbing. Then they insult him. They insult the man who defeated them. Of course, they also insult […]
Acts 11:26: All Christians are Disciples
While, as is expected, not all of the 269 references to disciples specifically define the word, very strong exegetical evidence from many passages establish that one becomes a true disciple of Christ at the same moment that one becomes a true believer, so that discipleship begins at regeneration, and all the people of God, not […]
