The current culture presents conflicting ideas about truth, especially the notion of "my truth," which undermines objective reality. Recognizing and countering these cultural lies with Biblical principles is crucial for maintaining faith. By understanding salvation through Jesus and scriptural teachings, believers can build their lives on a solid, truthful foundation.
Let's look at rights and their foundational role in protecting freedoms, categorized into negative and positive rights. Negative rights prevent actions infringing on individual freedoms, while positive rights require certain actions from others. We'll also mention the ongoing debate regarding the classification of modern claims such as health care and education as rights versus entitlements.

We discuss whether or not all sins are equal, and talk about how we understand sin impacts our feelings of guilt and justice. While some biblical passages suggest all sins are equal, others indicate differing severities of sin and punishment. Ultimately, the question depends on what you mean by "equal."

When the Founding Fathers debated and designed the government that they ultimately passed down to us, they understood that the States were individual and sovereign. The only purpose for a centralized government was to handle things that the states did not have sufficient capacity to manage.

In today's culture, oversimplification is widespread, evident in politics, health, religion, and worldviews. People categorize others based on group identities, overlooking individual uniqueness. While treating groups based on group identity can work at times, acknowledging individual differences is essential. Recognizing the complexity of humanity and engaging with individuals openly can lead to better understanding and even a...
Can Christianity be described as a blind faith? It depends on what you mean by "faith." Rather than using a separate definition of faith for religious belief than we use for other concepts, it would be better to use the same definition in all situations.

Does unbelief cause someone to spend eternity in Hell? Or is it that we are justly condemned for our sin? The moment sin entered the world, God launched a plan of salvation to bring us back to Himself. It's the sin the keeps us from Him. Not believing in Jesus is just a way of rejecting the only solution we have to be with God forever.

This week, we look at the issue of slavery in a biblical context. We will acknowledge the challenge it poses for Christians in reconciling such practices with the concept of a good and loving God. We will argue that God may allow behavior He finds immoral due to the flawed nature of man. We'll take a look at a couple of passages about slavery and talk about the difference between servanthood and slavery. We also cover the idea ...
The concept of "undesigned coincidences" in the Bible refers to seemingly incidental details that clarify or resolve ambiguities in other passages. For example, in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, an apparent inconsistency about Jesus being asked to identify who struck him is resolved as Luke mentions that Jesus was blindfolded. Similarly, unnoticed details about Jacob's relationships with his wives Leah and Rachel, a...
We all carry certain beliefs, many of which guide our decisions and interactions. While some of these beliefs may be false, the challenge lies in establishing which ones are accurate. Our level of certainty varies across different beliefs, and it's crucial to remain humble and open-minded during discussions. Challenging our beliefs helps refine them and promotes growth.
