Nothing is judged more severely by our culture today than assertions of biblical male and female absolutes. It may be possible that we are in the final progression of God giving our culture up to first “sexual impurity” then “shameful lusts” and finally a “depraved mind”. And throughout all of this, true human sexuality has been the prime target. The enemy tu...
For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth. And after my skin has been thus destroyed, yet in my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not another. Job 19:25-27
The confidence that God will raise the dead is not just a New Testament belief. Job confesses, in this prophetic utterance, that even after his body h...
Let’s return to our excerpts from the Marxism/Socialism game plan. I have substituted “victim class” for “working class” and will explain why:
Pit classes against each other, make the ruling class the hated enemy and the victim class the righteous underdog.
Promise the victim class, through revolution, a redemptive hope of utopia and the spoils of civil war...
Our President will offer, on Tuesday, his State of the Union address. However, it will most likely not be a true state of our nation, but rather another political posturing speech, just like we have heard for years, from both Republicans and Democrats. This is unfortunate, for our nation needs a true, honest assessment of where we are as a culture. It is in that spirit I offer my humble perspec...

“I am the way, and the truth, and the LIFE...” John 14:6
I suppose there is nothing that we take for granted more than the reality of life. We wake in the morning and get out of bed and go about our daily activities. And yet, we seldom stop to ponder that everything we did that day was because we were animated by this mysterious thing called life. Our eyes see, o...
If you happen to be in Colorado Springs on June 23, 2022, you may wish to join me at Village Seven Presbyterian Church for their "Grace and Grub"... food and fellowship and some teaching. I will be teaching on the misconceptions that have crept into the Christian mind and heart regarding our relationship to God. Is the relationship that we have because of Christ a "Give and Get&q...
WOW! TERRIBLE. I’M ASHAMED OF THE GAME. QUOTE ME. I’M ASHAMED OF THE GAME.
HOUSTON ASTROS MANAGER DUSTY BAKER
I don’t follow Major League Baseball anymore. I suppose you can rack that up to my rebellion against all things Woke. MLB moved their All-Star game from Atlanta to Denver, screaming all kinds of silly stuff about Georgia being racist and it was the proverbial str...
On Election Day, at lunchtime, I was at a park in Colorado Springs. On one corner of the park sits one of our big high schools. It was a nice day (normal for the Springs) and the students filled the park, several making out lying on the grass. On the opposite corner stood a young man, conservatively dressed, holding an American flag and a Trump sign. He had a radio on the ground, not very loud,...
(#18) The Early Resurrection Creed
When we come to the apologetic or defense against the argument that the resurrection is merely legend or myth, there are two key formal elements that must be well understood. The first is the “resurrection polemic” and the second is the “early resurrection creed”. We looked at the resurrection polemic last time. Now, we want to exam...

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12
When God was announcing the birth of Jesus, the advent of Christ, the coming of the long-awaited Messiah promised all the way back in the Garden of Eden, He used these words:
The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
