Biblical Christian Worldview

The book of Matthew in the Bible refers to the “Kingdom of Heaven” 32 times in the English Standard Version (ESV). Further, the phrase “Kingdom of God” can be found 69 times from the book of Matthew through the book of 2 Thessalonians. Finally, just the word “kingdom” can be found in both the Old and New Testaments 339 times.  For those who see truth in God’s Word, it is unlikely that one, in cont...

When the name “George Soros” appears in the media it typically brings with it a discussion on progressive agendas, the funding of the Democratic party, and the injection of liberal District Attorneys in major cities throughout America. Often insight into the broader goals of his efforts remain largely ignored. This article is intended to shed some light on Soros’ long-term strategy through the len...

From a historical perspective, not only the persecution, but the preservation of the Jewish people demonstrates the miraculous as one tries to grapple with the question of why. Consider their contemporaries in the Old Testament. How many Edomites, Ephrathites, Midianites, Ammonites, Moabites, Sabeans, Cushites, Jebusites Amalekites, Canaanites, Hitties, Horites, Kenites, Perizzites, Girgashites, P...

In 2021 a group of business leaders got together to form the 1792 Exchange, something I guarantee you have never heard of, yet. They have published a list of 1000 (and growing) companies in America, ranking them by how likely they are to deny individuals and small businesses who promote conservative and Christian agendas, from using their products and services. From their website : We, as Christia...

This is a true contemporary story of how the Bible can be twisted by man to comply with his own sinful agenda. Repeated down through the ages, outliers of good Biblical Christian theology can and have reinterpreted Scripture to support destructive human behavior. Examples include the Crusades , slavery , and a host of other atrocities, all in the name of God and the heretical application of His Wo...

Hypocrisy – The Problem As Christians, we desire to offer the Good News of Jesus Christ to seekers in order to provide a higher authority and strength for life’s challenges. Often adults come to a personal relationship with Christ during a time of personal stress. The comfort we offer emanates from the active participation of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer (John 14:26). It is based on...

Some years ago there was a seminal article written on a relatively obscure blog site that offered a list of mostly secular cognitive studies on the subject of whether the existence of God was based on nature (existed at birth) or nurture (exposure during life) and further if children were naturally religious or being indoctrinated by those in authority. The conclusion was that a belief in Creation...

Israel's Greatest Impact When asked what held the greatest impact during the week, our response was both surprising and easy to answer. It was not any of the religious sites one would expect. They were certainly interesting, and shed light on familiar verses as they came off the pages of the Bible. However, many of the specific locations were speculative on the events in the life and ministry...

A wise and respectful anti-Christian reader with whom I have communicated many times offered a challenge on the subject of mankind’s “fear of the Lord”. When he started quoting Scripture, it caused me to step back and reconsider my rather glib and poorly thought-out responses to his earlier statements on the matter. He used the following verses that would indicate Christians are commanded to fear...

Christian theology uses the term “Complementarianism” to encapsulate a Biblical worldview of marriage. Conclusion Just because we don’t live in a “perfect” world does not mean we should throw the Biblical baby out with the bath water. God’s word makes it clear that the husband is the responsible party in a godly marriage. However, this should NEVER be used to justify an abusive relationship which...

f you google the question of relative intelligence between the religious and non-religious, the results are interesting. Most of the top links confirm that religious people are less intelligent than atheists, and then proceed to explain why.  Conclusion Like so many other principles in our Biblical Christian worldview, we need to remember that believers are not of this world, we are passing throug...

Christians are called to “love thy neighbor”.  Often that is interpreted, both inside and outside the church, as “let’s all get along and accept each other just as we are”. The Bible says we are called to live at peace with everyone (Rom. 12:18) and to honor and follow our elected officials (Rom. 13:1). Unbelievers wonder, why can’t evangelicals do that? Those that don’t understand Christianity or...

Romans 10:9 That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. The importance of this topic, Salvation, cannot be overstated. It is an absolutely critical dogma of the Christian faith. It has to do with eternity in Heaven or Hell, among many other things.  There are not many theological constructs more important tha...

There is a theology I just discovered that tries to offer a cogent Biblical Christian justification for Abortion.  It begins with the view that God is omniscient (all knowing), which is true. Therefore, God knows who will abort their baby before bringing it to term. Consequently, under this view, God can choose not put a soul in that “group of cells” since He knows it will never be born. Further,...

On May 23, 2022, the independent Guidepost Solutions report detailing known sexual abuse within the denomination was published.  I am very saddened by the impact a handful of men, some with self- protection in mind and some with the best of intentions, had on deeply damaging one of the last and largest Evangelical institutions in the world. This, by allowing a personal sin nature and Satan to infe...

My honest answer to the title of this post is that I have no idea if Biblical Christians are making a difference on Social Media. From a personal perspective, I have received both an unusually higher level of encouragement from my limited blogging (I have been on somewhat of a hiatus in the last month) as well as an increase in the number of new Christian writers asking for advice. "Biblical...

Many, over the last few months, have made understandable comments challenging the Bible as God’s primary authoritative source for communication with mankind. The latest came from a reader who stated…. “The Bible is not an authoritative source from God”, and other than... we should love one another, “the rest is just bunk… Nowhere in the bible does God say that a great book will be created for all...

The longest-running show in television history, NBC’s “Meet the Press”, begins the new year with a bipartisan, fair and balanced, yet revealing special report on the negative aspects of Social Media in America today. Below, without editorial comment until the end, is a list of summary statistics and insider quotes from that broadcast . A Biblical Christian View This is the world we live in today a...

The subject of Christian Nationalism ( What is Christian Nationalism and is it Biblical ) has surfaced in some of my recent articles, on its own and as a stepping stone toward the belief we are headed toward a Christian Theocracy ( Christofascist Dominionist Theocracy ). More interesting than my words have been the comments from others on Medium .  Reading an article this morning from Albert Mohle...

A reader asked me today if the words “In God We Trust” were still being printed on American currency. Of course, the reason for the question has more to do with our increasing aversion to anything Christian being mixed into the general population. Imagine if the phrase was originally coined, “In Jesus We Trust”. "Let us know what you think."

What many Americans seem to miss is that the more we spread money around in an attempt to fix the inequities of society in the near term, the more anemic we become as a nation. There is a loss of incentive and an increase in apathy. More and more recipients of the social welfare state become dependent upon fewer and fewer "donors" and everyone loses in the end. The number of Americans re...

I responded recently to an article written by a very well-meaning author on the subject of Christian presence at Abortion Clinics. His premise was that we should be caring for women in their neighborhoods and, in the event of their pro-choice decision to abort, we should be offering support rather than pre or post advice. In my view, the media is a fault here, not this author, except for his disce...

What is the interrelationship between Maslow’s “Hierarchy of Needs” and a Biblical Christian worldview? It is all a matter of perspective and priority in today’s American culture.  The Main Thing Truly our most pressing need is not even on Maslow’s “Hierarchy of Needs” list. God places a vacuum in the heart of mankind. We may try to fill that emptiness with a life full of toys, safety, entertainme...

Over the last few months I have received a few comments related to the importance of the Apostles’ Creed as the foundation for our Biblical Christian worldview. Some readers went so far as to say that they do not “stray too far” from the Apostle’s Creed in establishing their systematic theology. Below, I would like to weigh in on that approach to our faith.  God calls us to read His love letter to...

Many people believe that the Bible is a wonderful book of wisdom for life’s challenges. Further, most Christians accept much, if not all, the theology presented in Scripture. However, often one hears…  “THE BIBLE MIGHT BE A SOURCE FOR THE CORRECTION AND TEACHING OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, BUT IT NEVER CLAIMS PERFECTION, ESPECIALLY IN THE AREAS OF SCIENCE AND HISTORY.” In the end, it is an acceptance of wha...
