“You wanna be a woman today? Great! How about a-sexual, just to keep things flexible? That’ll work too. Whatever works for you, works out fine, and the government will pick up any plumbing bills.” The agenda of the radical left today includes no absolute truth, but “whatever you want truth to be,” and— Voila!—your fondest wish is reality, according to the current, radical elite. What is your view of where to find the plumbline to judge what is “the truth” in all questions, issues…

It has taken me a lifetime to make that discovery, and then to recognize how to go about pursuing that purpose in my daily life. But our loving, sovereign, Heavenly Father has each of us right on schedule, He is still at work in our lives as long as we still draw breath. I am finding that every day holds new, exciting discoveries of the height, length, breadth and depth of this priceless treasure I have stumbled onto in the field of life. This…

If you have followed my blog postings for the last few months you already know what the fourth pillar that supports learning to think by faith, “How does God relates to us?”, will be. You are sure it will be, “God relates to us absolutely by grace alone, and not assisted by anything we do ourselves,” and you are right. However, just in the last ten years or so, after 50 years as a serious, involved Christian who would have answered the same way…

Even though Paul says “we have the mind of Christ” in 1 Corinthians 2:16, learning to think God’s way, “by faith,” instead of seeing everything as fallen man naturally does, through the lens of “good and evil,” is a lifelong process. God’s way of thinking by faith is totally different, and we are examining the  five theological pillars that are essential to learn to think this way.  The first four of these pillars are all anathema to today’s spreading postmodernism. This Marxist Critical Theory…

Presuppositions are unrecognized assumptions we all have that dictate how we think. We generally never question whether those assumptions are true (biblical) or not. In the last blog posting, I built a biblical case for one of those presuppositions, “free will,” being a non-biblical one, and how that false assumption has influenced how we think about God.  We all believe God is “sovereign,” but we think there surely must, somehow, still be a little wriggle-room for exercising my own free will to contribute something…

“‘For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,’ says the LORD. ‘For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts’” (Isaiah 55:8, 9). “But we have the mind of Christ” (1 Corinthians 2:16). How should I think about the situation in which we find ourselves after the first week of the Biden presidency? Resignation, fear, anger, determination, anticipation and excitement are several live possibilities. Notice…

“The word ‘foundations,’ in this psalm, refers to those things on which society rests, or by which social order is sustained – the great principles of truth and righteousness that uphold society, as the foundations on which an edifice rests, uphold the building. The reference is to a destruction of those things in a community, when truth is no longer respected; when justice is no longer practiced; when fraud and violence have taken the place of honesty and honor; when error prevails; when a…

I woke up very early this morning with a single idea filling my mind. Interestingly, I have discovered that the Lord chooses to communicate with me at that particular time, because this often happens. So, I have learned to pay careful attention to what those ideas are when they come. This morning it was the whole idea of what the familiar phrase, “born again,” means.  In light of the current political situation, we have understandably been discussing the civil government, one of the expressions…

Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice; moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.  Barry Goldwater Goldwater first uttered these words in his campaign for president as the Republican candidate, running against the Democrat Lyndon Johnson in 1964. They were a response to accusations against him that he was “an extremist, a danger to society. He will start a nuclear war with Russia,” the Democrats loudly proclaimed from every media source, which, at that time were only the traditional ABC,…

Are you aware that today’s politics are not like your grandpa’s politics? Gone are the days when collegiality, bipartisanship and a mutual appreciation of the “loyal opposition” allowed our representatives in Congress to reach across the aisle with their political opponents. In those days, everyone loved America, was a proud patriot, and wanted to preserve our nation. Those days are over. There is a spiritual war raging all around us, and now, for the first time in our lifetime, our very way of life,…
