The world we live in today is a shadow of its biblical foundations, marred by the consequences of Adam's fall and a complete disregard for its Creator. This rejection of God has left us with a flawed and obscured understanding of our purpose and place in the world,...

Jesus told Christians to be set apart from the world. Yet, somehow in modern times, what passes as "Christianity" is virtually indistinguishable from the paganized culture and is often designed that way on purpose.As we've written about numerous times over the years,...
I don't think you have to be a complete iconoclast to know when depicting God crosses the line. God's commandments are clear—"you shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above" and "You shall not bow down to them."What...
I recently had an exchange with Jared Moore, a pastor and a graduate of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (SBTS), who has been exposing much of the bad theology within the Southern Baptist Convention over sexuality. Moore recently started a firestorm on Twitter...

I really feel like I need to disclaim this post with the fact that I really do not support or endorse Mark Driscoll in any way. That being said, I happened across a post of his on Twitter recently that put such an absurd debate for professing Christians quite...
The web of deceit is woven tighter by those who stake their entire existence on promoting the false notion of White Supremacy. From Jussie Smollet to Kyle Howard, individuals resort to fabricating tales of supposed racist encounters to secure their futures. But why?...

Men and women were made to glorify God and to enjoy him forever. The scriptures show us how to fulfill this chief end by teaching what should be believed about God and what duty God requires from man. The first three Q&As of the Westminster Shorter Catechism explain this and Aimee, as an Orthodox Presbyterian, is undoubtedly aware of our general anthropologic purpose.

Fasting is not about “indulging God,” as Lisa says. Fasting is an involuntary response to an outward influence and the Bible says fasting is always tied to mourning or some extreme situation/decision. One does not wake up and simply decide to fast; we do not fast to “get closer to God” or to “hear God better.”

I constantly hear from the left-wing progressive branch of Evangelicalism that those who support President Donald Trump are selling out the gospel because we support a man who is immoral and we give credibility to his false testimony of Christian conversion by not...
When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you. Winston Churchill In the Christian world, there is a massive assault on denominations and doctrinal divide. After all, we’re all believers and followers of Jesus Christ, right? If so, what’s the...

It should go without saying that The Gospel Coalition (TGC) has absolutely nothing to do with the gospel or any other biblical teaching or exhortation. The Gospel Coalition is nothing more than an outlet for the carnal consumption of worldly influence into the Church...

"Do not boil a goat in its mother's milk" -Deuteronomy 14:21. I remember the first time I read this verse in an Old Testament course in college, a long time ago. It struck me as very odd. Another one was, "If you come across a bird’s nest in any...
