Is It Scriptural To Stereotype Certain Cultures or Ethnicities?
Almost anyone reading this knows at least the left in the United States says it’s wrong to profile or stereotype. I wrote, “says,” because they don’t practice it themselves. The left stereotypes and profiles “fly-over country” and President Obama is famous for profiling small town Pennsylvanians who “cling to their guns and religion.” Now almost […]
Scan of 100,000 Galaxies and No Alien Life: What’s That Supposed to Mean?
A news source that culls the internet for the kind of articles I like to read directed me to “A Scan Of 100,000 Galaxies Shows No Sign Of Alien Mega-Civilizations.” Ouchie for that particular worldview — not saying that it had an iota of hope ever anyway. I ask you to think about all the […]

A One Stop Shop of Recent Religious Freedom Articles (and a Short One by Me)
Is religious freedom a biblical issue? It is in one sense, that is, God hasn’t rescinded the cultural mandate, to subdue and have dominion. Christians are salt and light, so it’s not just all about evangelism. This does not mean that the ultimate answer is in politics or even government. Empires will fall, as seen […]
Kooky Alternatives to the Truth, Spontaneous Inventions, That Lead to Same Gender Abomination and Egalitarianism
If you ask for a square and I give you a triangle, you aren’t going to accept it because it’s close. “Hey, it’s only missing one corner!” That’s just the way it is in the real world. Blue can’t be the new orange just because it’s what you want or perhaps what you feel. Different […]

Luke 14:15-24: What It Doesn’t Mean (part two, as an example of false teaching)
Make sure you read part one first. The text of Luke 14:15-24 is there too, to which you can refer. Origen, third century patristic, developed a system of allegorical interpretation of scripture, and is called the father of it. Without relying on his writings, many today still follow his methods by spiritualizing God’s Word. Roman […]
Luke 14:15-24: What It Means (part one)
Luke 14:15-24 reads: 15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God. 16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: 17 And sent his servant […]
The Trinity: How Well Do You Know the true God?
Some time ago, I stated the following here at the What is Truth blog: As a believer, you are to grow in grace, and in the knowledge of Christ, and of the Triune God revealed through Christ (2 Peter 3:18, etc.) You are to love your God with all your mind, as well as all your […]
How Contemporary Evangelical Worldview Hastened Defeat in Culture War
For awhile, evangelicals have protested binary thinking and expected nuance. No one tries that with gravity, because of the short term disadvantage, which is a dismount in the crunch position. Truth, goodness, and beauty operate like gravity because they proceed from the same source: God. The passengers of Germanwings Flight 9525 last week recognized […]
