Michael Snyder: Arresting People For Not Wearing Masks Is Another Giant Step Toward Total Tyranny

If anyone doubts that the country that many of us loved so much is almost totally gone, just look at what is going on all around the U.S. right now. People are actually being arrested and put in prison for not wearing masks. If authorities are willing to get this extreme during a relatively minor pandemic, what are they going to do to us when a true national emergency breaks out?

Will the American Republic Survive Multiculturalism?

For more than fifty years, "diversity is our strength" has been governing America's policies. But can the U.S. survive multiculturalism's assault on the moral and religious fabric of our nation? ...Following the sustained, spiritually shaping First Great Awakening of 1730–1743, the thirteen American colonies approved the Declaration of Independence from Britain, and each drafted a state constitution, integrating Christian commitments with established churches.

CP Voices: Israel, the U.S. and the Judgment of God On Iran

It is evident that from about 2100 BC up to the establishment of Israel as an independent nation in 1948, the Jewish people have considered all of the land of present-day Israel to be their rightful homeland, and most of the other nations of the world have agreed with that claim. For over 4,000 years Palestine was commonly understood to be the rightful homeland of the Jewish people. By contrast, there is no other group of people who have anything remotely like Israel's 4,000-year history in this land.

Ten Biblical Warning Signs a Nation Is Under Judgment

We are living in a time when nations appear invincible and global powers project an image of permanence. Yet Scripture reveals a radically different reality: every empire that exalts itself against God carries within it the seeds of its own destruction. The rise and fall of Assyria — and particularly Nineveh — serve as one of the clearest biblical case studies of how God deals with nations. Nineveh was once the most feared city on earth. Yet within a generation, it was reduced to rubble — so thoroughly destroyed that historians questioned whether it ever existed.

Dealing With Disagreements—A Lesson From George Whitefield

Sometimes the same gifts of boldness and passion that God longs to use as a Christian’s greatest strengths, may end up being his greatest weakness. James 1:5 encourages every Christian to ask God for skill to make right decisions. The relationship between George Whitefield and John Wesley provides a positive and negative example. The intent is not to raise unnecessarily issues that cause division among preachers, but rather to learn and grow in our attitude and treatment of those with whom we disagree.

BetweenTwoCultures: The Human Heart and the Internet Age

Someone once said, ‘The internet is the only place where someone who does not know you and has never seen you before, can speak into your life’s circumstances and have a profound impact on your life.’ This is proving to be true each passing day, and sadly, the consequences are quite devastating. How did we get here?...There are no bible verses that directly address the matters of owning a phone or social media applications, but there are verses that address the state of the human heart and the actions of man.

Shepherd's Church: Christians Are To Be a People of the Truth

We live in an age that has declared war upon reality. Words are routinely emptied of their ordinary meanings and reassigned to serve political power, personal desire, and cultural rebellion. The murder of unborn children is called healthcare. The mutilation of healthy bodies is called medicine. Sexual perversion is called love. Racial partiality is called equity. Censorship is called safety. Cowardice is called tolerance. Lawlessness is called liberation. And those who refuse to participate in these lies are accused of hatred.

Real Clear Religion: Communism Versus the Ten Commandments

Communism is enjoying a resurgence today, even in America. But communism is against each of the Ten Commandments and vice versa. How does communism violate all ten points of the greatest legal code ever revealed to man? Let us count the ways. In the first commandment, God says that He alone is God. Communism says there is no God. But the communists act like the state is God. How can a Christian be a communist when communism declares “party members should not have religious beliefs, which is a red line for all members."

The Importance of Understanding History For the Christian

...History is valuable because Christians possess the knowledge of God in Christ. History avails itself of its full usefulness for the Christian, for we now have hearts and minds to perceive and receive what we ought to learn from it. Thus, the past is God’s sovereign work in the world, and history is the study, interpretation, and communication of His work in the world. This grounds and legitimizes our use of history, for it is of God and from God. Does viewing history this way simply reduce history into theology? By no means!
