No matter how quickly the world seems to change, human nature does not. We still face the same underlying fears and feel the same cherished hopes as our ancestors in 1920 and 1820. And we still need the unchanging truth of biblical revelation in 2020.
“Christianity,” however, as a revealed worldview, has an objective definition. Christianity centers ultimate reality and, therefore, ultimate authority, outside (not within) the created order, locates it in a Divine Personal Being who has made Himself known through what He has made, through Holy Scripture, and ultimately made known Himself through Christ Jesus. One might doubt that there is a God who has revealed Himself or that God has revealed Himself in these ways, and therefore reject Christianity. But because Christianity is a worldview that comes already carefully defined, it’s not open to mass-scale revisions.
In a broken world filled with disaster, disease, and despair, Jesus is our only hope. Even more than we need a COVID-19 vaccine and solutions for the divisiveness of our day, we need to know Jesus.
A new survey reveals that 52 percent of American adults believe Jesus was a great teacher but not God. This is despite Jesus’ clear claims to divinity. Tragically, 30 percent of evangelical Christians agree that Jesus was merely a great teacher.
One of the enduring lessons of the COVID-19 pandemic is the frailty of human life. No matter our celebrity status, financial wealth, political power, or cultural success, the play Camelot is more fiction than fact in our fallen world.
According to a new survey conducted by LifeWay Research, most Americans and nearly one-third of evangelicals say Jesus was a “good teacher” but was not God.
After a college professor warned students in her syllabus that speaking out against a battery of social issues, including abortion and transgenderism among other things, would be grounds for dismissal from the class, the university stepped in and told the professor that she must change her syllabus as it hinders students' first amendment rights.
One of the falsehoods of moral relativism is that there are no falsehoods. Since all truth is subjective, “sin” is equally subjective. As a consequence, there can be no judgment for sin, since there is no basis for such judgment.
If you were Satan, committed to leading as many people into sin as possible, wouldn’t you try to persuade as many people as possible that this lie is true?
What can James Bond’s popularity teach us about promoting biblical morality? Consider this fact: stories change souls.
Politics that once focused largely on the economy, national security, and the deficit, now tackles important moral issues. These major issues have enormous implications; to remain silent actually makes a statement that we are not concerned enough. This is not just about the loss of jobs; it’s about the loss of morality. This shift requires us to stay closely involved. Topics that are “too controversial” are often critically important; we can no longer ignore them.
