“Unless we hold to a covenant of creation distinct from a covenant of grace, we will have no basis for speaking to certain public policy issues of the day, like homosexual marriage” (Rules for Reformers, p. 145).
A Mound of Pink Cotton Balls
More needs to said about the idea of cultural justification. Apart from an understanding of this, there is no hope of grasping the deep divisions that the debates over same sex mirages are revealing. Note that I did not say that these debates are creating these division, but rather that they are revealing them. Same …
In Which C.S. Lewis Holds Up a Mirror in Front of the Internet
“The use of Fashions in thought is to distract the attention of men from their real dangers. We direct the fashionable outcry of each generation against those vices of which it is least in danger and fix its approval on the virtue nearest to that vice which we are trying to make endemic. The game …
Inescapability of Natural Law
“Worship and honor were required by the knowledge that natural revelation brought. This they refused to do, in defiance of this light from natural revelation, and this light from natural revelation can certainly be called a natural law.

As the sexual controversies of our day continue to unfold, the need of the hour is for believers to understand what is actually going on, and how we got to …
Now Hiring . . .
“So we should be in the market for young Christian men and women who are willing to be trained in genuine cultural engagement. They won’t be embarrassed by old-fashioned virtues, like hard work and discipline. They will respect authority and defy the authorities. They won’t get fired from jobs because of laziness, and they will …
They Think They’re Jesus
Last night I had the privilege of sharing the platform at an event in Coeur D’Alene with Aaron and Melissa Klein. They were the owners of the bakery in Oregon that was shut down by the sexual totalitarians. They were then fined a chunk of cash by some despotic bureaucratic flunky, and when a GoFundMe …
