The Feminist Siren Song

As I checked my favorite news aggregator one morning this week, I came across an article that began with this sentence: “The nuclear family must be abolished in favor of a ‘feminist future,’ says one feminist writer.”  The article continued with, “In an article posted on Vice News, feminist writer Sophie Lewis proposed replacing the traditional family with a shared ‘surrogacy’ model in which ‘the labor of making new human beings is shared among all of us, ‘mother’ no longer being a natural category.’”…

“Authority, Responsibility, Accountability”: Vilified by the World-Honored by God

If Jesus tells us to pray for something to happen in the world, and God is as real in our daily lives as He was to Jesus, might we not anticipate that this prayer will be answered?  Jesus tells us to pray a specific prayer, “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven” (Matthew 6:10). Whenever we pray this to our Heavenly Father, does it not make sense that our Father is going to answer this prayer?  Yes,…

One Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

What we have discussed the past few weeks is neither easy nor entertaining reading to everyone. It is controversial, theological, and, for many, a brand new way to look at the world and life in general.  However, I believe understanding clearly the subject of our discussions is worth the effort necessary to make it the object of our diligent pursuit. It is the framework for all of life, both the reason for life’s journey and the means by which we take the trip. It…

Ruling in the Kingdom “In the Day of His Power”

We are the children of a Father, the sheep of a Shepherd, the vice-regents of a King, the soldiers in an army, and the employees in a business. These are all metaphors that I have used in past blog postings to illustrate the “big-picture” of the relationship we have with God.  God has saved us for a distinct purpose of which many Christians are completely unaware. Contrary to popular belief, we were neither saved to escape hell, nor to enjoy eternity with God, although…

Deploying the Troops – The Final Step

The battle raged for 33 years, from the Incarnation to the Cross, and it was there on that cross that the outcome was finally determined. On a lonely hill outside the city wall of Jerusalem, Satan killed Jesus, the very Son of God Himself, the Second Person of the Trinity, on a wooden cross.  It appeared to the disciples, and it appears to the casual observer today, that Satan had finally won the battle, and crucifying the Son of God was the most tragic…

Kingdom, Kingdom, Who’s Got the Kingdom?

We have seen that God’s original plan for man in Genesis 1:24-26 was to be His vice-regent on the earth—to “have dominion” over it. Under God’s authority, we were to rule for Him according to His law, on the earth that He created,.  However, through Satan’s deception and Adam and Eve’s unwillingness to exercise the leadership responsibilities of their new office, they succumbed to Satan’s temptation. They believed his lie, obeyed his instruction, became his slaves, and legally lost man’s right to rule the…

Building a Christian Worldview (III)

An all powerful, absolutely sovereign, creator God unconditionally loved His depraved, rebellious creatures and came to earth to save them, even though they rejected Him and His leadership to follow God’s mortal enemy, Satan.   That statement above encapsulates the answers to the first three questions which define our biblical worldview so far: 1.) Who is God? 2.) Who am I? 3.) How does God relate to me? In this blog posting, let’s investigate the answer to #4: Why am I here? Because of that…

Building a Christian Worldview (II)

In last week’s post we looked at the first two of four questions, the biblical answers to which form the foundation of a uniquely Christian worldview. They were: 1.) “What is God like?,” and 2.) “What am I like?” In today’s post we will deal with 3.): “How does God relate to me?”  The temptation when we first look at these questions is to think that the answers seem self-evident. “I believe those answers, so therefore I have a Christian worldview. Nothing else to…

Building a Christian Worldview

A worldview is “The set of beliefs about fundamental aspects of Reality that ground and influence all one’s perceiving, thinking, knowing, and doing.” This is the definition of the word “worldview,” in the dictionary.  When faced with this concept, Christians today realize that their faith informs how they see and interact with the world around them—their “perceiving, thinking, knowing, and doing.” Since genuine Christian faith is based totally on the word of God as revealed in the Bible, their worldview ideally is a biblical…

What Do I Do While I Live In the World (But not Of It)?

Last week we looked at Jesus’ prayer for us in John 17 that we be “in the world but not of the world” as we, His disciples, fulfill God’s mission for us on the earth. This is the method we will use to attack our job with confidence—being regularly involved right in the middle of Satan’s world system, but never partaking of it. We don’t have to “be one to win one.” We are different, not because we try to be or even know…

“Robert’s Blog” is a forum to investigate and then discuss the significance of both God’s law and God’s grace (the gospel). Who are these two fraternal twins, how do they relate to one another and how do they then work together to accomplish God’s ultimate intention for my life and in His world? All comers jump in; the water’s fine.
