The vast majority of Christians will face difficult decisions regarding impending death of a loved one. I am refining this list, as well as still thinking through other principles, but these have proven to be quite helpful in guiding me to think biblically about such eventualities. Strong families are essential since family members are the…
Read MoreEuthanasic death is always promoted as an act of mercy. However, it appears at times to be an act of mercy for someone other than the patient. This was the case with Terri Schiavo, who had to be starved to death in order for her to die; a person who also had family who said…
Read MoreAsk just about any person living in the U.S. if they are certain about anything, and they will more than likely say, yeah, Global Warming. They know that if scientists say it, well it must be true. Umh! Well, do all scientists agree? Is there a consensus? Is man-made global warming certain? Not according to…
Read MoreAccording to the Associated Press, Gallup polls from 1994 to 2005 consistently show that more than 90 percent of adults say they celebrate Christmas, including 84 percent of non-Christians.

Read MoreDid you know, “…that the British High Court ruled in a lawsuit that Al Gore’s movie, An Inconvenient Truth, “is scientifically flawed and has nine significant exaggerations and factual errors.” Among those exaggerations are the claims that sea levels could rise 20 feet by the end of the century, and that polar bears are disappearing…
Read MoreThose of you who know me know that I am deeply concerned about not only false teaching, but particularly the shallow insubstantial teaching of the Scripture in a growing number of our evangelical churches. This leaves this generation of Christians un-equipped and the next generation with very little knowledge of the Christian faith to not…
Read MoreHitler’s animosity and inhumane atrocities against the Jews are well known. His venom against them and his plan to use his own oratorical abilities to exploit them in order to resurrect Germany is a theme running though Mein Kampf. However, one should never forget how effective his devilish, albeit intellectually doltish, scheme was. Moreover, there…
Read MoreIntentionalists believe that the Constitution should be understood in the way it was understood by the Founders. Consequently, it is a fixed document with static meaning; therefore, it means today what it meant then. The only way one can properly interpret it is by studying the authorial intent of the signatories. In contrast, progressives believe…
