3 Marks of the God of the System

Friday, August 21, 2015 By Douglas Wilson

3 Marks of the God of the System

Every system has a god, which means that when you have identified certain markers, you have identified the god of the system. If the god of the system is not the true God, the God who made Heaven and earth, then the god of the system is an idol. In order to be an idol, the god … [Read more...]

Empty Pulpits or Full Churches?

Wednesday, October 16, 2013 By Douglas Wilson

I would like to draw your attention to Brad Littlejohn's rejoinder to my post here. That rejoinder is down in the comments. This was my post on how an Obama vote disqualifies a man from ministry. Thanks to Brad for the comments, and for the opportunity for me to follow up on my … [Read more...]

Trueman, Toilets, and Transformation

Friday, August 16, 2013 By Douglas Wilson

Carl Trueman writes with verve and sass, which is of course a good thing, so it is a pity when he whiffs one. Don't get me wrong -- the swing was picture perfect, but the ball somehow still wound up in the catcher's mitt. The occasion was a jab that D.G. Hart was taking at the … [Read more...]

On the Rounded Upper Part

Wednesday, June 5, 2013 By Douglas Wilson

Alan Jacobs asks a question here that he does not answer. That question concerns whether he is a conservative or not. "So is there any sense in which I might plausibly be called a conservative? I don’t really know; I’ll leave that to others to decide." With such a kind … [Read more...]

Maintaining the Negative

Monday, April 22, 2013 By Douglas Wilson

Since what we are seeking to reform is our public life together, the principal object of our concern should be the current state of our public life together. We are not attempting time travel to Arcadia, or perpetrating some sort of a book jump into Utopia. We play cards with the … [Read more...]

Symphonic Creation

Tuesday, February 12, 2013 By Douglas Wilson

God considers us to be worth more than many sparrows (Matt. 10:31). As Joe Rigney reminds us, or will remind us when the book comes out, this is an exhibition of what philosophers call proportionate regard. God cares more for how we are decked out than how the lilies are (Matt. … [Read more...]

With the Smell of Burnt Marshwiggle

Wednesday, January 16, 2013 By Douglas Wilson

A real reformer is not a member of a faction. Men have always tended to divide into opposing factions, whether it is Crips and Bloods or Guelphs and Ghibellines. But factional differences (while very real) don't go down to the deep foundations. An ancient city is debating whether … [Read more...]

The Limitations of Kitten Hugging

Wednesday, October 17, 2012 By Douglas Wilson

Whenever you propose something, as I propose a return to mere Christendom, one of the natural objections people raise is the objection of trajectories -- as in, "that's all very well, but what might this lead to next?" Given this sinfulness of this world, and the genius we have … [Read more...]

Cathedrals of the New Foundation

Tuesday, October 16, 2012 By Douglas Wilson

In the past, it is true, I have occasionally written positive things about generally despised groups. I have done this with the medievals, with the Puritans, and even for some aspects of the Confederacy. Given this propensity of mine, was it not just a matter of time before I … [Read more...]

Deep Theology, Man

Monday, October 8, 2012 By Douglas Wilson

First, read this. After  you have done so, then you may read what follows. The two cash quotes are these: "Note that “faithfulness to Scriptures” involves politics, the arts and sciences, and movies. Note as well that Leithart himself has defended the political theology of … [Read more...]
