God deals with nations as nations, God blesses nations that adhere to biblical law, and God judges nations that turn their back on God and his written word.

The most Christian political philosophy in the current philosophical Overton Window is classical liberalism. But Progressivism (Democratic Party) and the New Right (the Republican Party) are squeezing it out. 

“Our good God, our ever-flowing God, our God of Yes and Amen, has always been able to promise far more than we are able to believe. God loves to bury our finite faith under an avalanche of promises and gifts.”

We cannot grasp the Christian worldview as we should if we do not understand the covenant and the kingdom.

The Christian Faith is deeply anti-antinomian. This is a brief elaboration on the Bible’s teaching concerning God‘s law in creation, his law in Moses, and his law in the new covenant.

Every movement away from the Bible is a movement toward an alien, competing word, and that word always leads to darkness, chaos, and damnation.

The Christian worldview is founded the creational worldview. To confuse this sequence is to twist both Christianity and creation.

The United States is the most spectacularly valuable political experiment in world history – because it was founded on Christian principles.

Fundamentalism, modernism, scholasticism, and postmodernism are bad ways of interpreting the Bible.The canonical or covenantal or worldview-ish way is the only right way.

A brief, direct, easy-to-understand explanation of one of the most harmful ways of thinking in the modern church. 

A recognition of “the near impossibility of simple refutations” might lead to a mutual laying down of arms in the acrimonious sacrament wars of paedobaptists (and paedocommunionists) versus credobaptists (and credocommunionists).

If you’re discouraged and distraught over the surrounding depraved culture or persistent, personal difficulties, you might be helped by this bold, full-throated, biblical defense postmillenialism.

The Battle for Reality is even more pressing than The Battle for the Bible. 

No matter how dire our situation, Jesus Christ is our utterly impregnable hope, and to rely on anyone or anything else is an insecure confidence. 

We are saved by Christ and his redemptive work alone, but our salvation inevitably produces godly works. None who live after salvation will enjoy eternal life if they lack good works.  We are justified by a working faith. 

To know God’s calling in your life, immerse yourself in the manual of his cosmic operating system. 

What is a Christian worldview, and what is its primary competitor in the Western world today? 

The protology and eschatology of the Bible include promises of the advancement and victory of Christ‘s kingdom before the final, perfected eternal state. We must live as victorious people — because we are.

The Bible festers with God’s promises to his people, and living consistently in those promises means living in consistent hope and victory. 

Creation is the backdrop and prerequisite of our Lord’s redemptive work, and to bypass creation is eventually to overturn the gospel.
