As a boy, I was fascinated with inventors and their inventions. Not just in the invention but the process. How did they do it? Why didn’t they give up after so many failures? Edison’s attempt to find the right filament for his incandescent light was exhausting. He reportedly said, “I have not failed 10,000 times. I have not failed once. I have succeeded in proving that those 10,000 ways will not w [...]

Sam Frost used to be a full preterist. He published articles and books defending the full preterist worldview while he was at Whitefield Theological Seminary under the tutelage of Ken Talbot. In his book Misplaced Hope, Frost wrote that he owed Ken “large thanks. Although he may not be in agreement with my conclusions [about Sam’s views about preterism], he nonetheless has inspired my undertaking [...]

In my opinion, in the battle over eschatology, creeds and confessions are heavily weighted toward dogmatism because eschatology has been a landmine of interpretive confusion. Let’s nail down some non-negotiable “I believes” and let combatants fight about the non-essentials in the never-ending Prophecy Wars. It’s become even more so with the advent of dispensational premillennialism. For many dispe [...]

The Nicene Creed and its anonymous cousin, the Apostles’ Creed, have been standards of orthodoxy for around 1700 years. A charge made against Christians who ask questions about the creeds is that the creeds use “man’s language,” thus invalidating their authority. This is a harsh and mistaken claim since most of the statements in both creeds are taken directly from verses in the Bible, thus, they a [...]

Modern-day social theory is based on an evolutionary model. This means that there is no way to account for morality, governmental jurisdictions, or separation of powers since these principles are foun [...]

I’ve seen this type of language. “My books are about killing God,” says Philip Pullman, the award-winning author of the fantasy trilogy His Dark Materials. For a critique of Pullman’s worldview, see To [...]

They sympathize with Black Americans who have been treated unjustly. The history of Black suppression and oppression is real. It’s been a slow road to right past injustices.

A generous supporter of American Vision is donating $10,000 as a matching grant. It works like this. If American Vision raises $10,000 this month, we will receive an additional $10,000.

A video by Mitch Muller, “Is the Apostle/Disciple John STILL ALIVE?,” is making the rounds on Facebook. Muller begins by quoting John 21:20-23. Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them. He was the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper to ask, “Lord, who is going to betray You?” When Peter saw him, he asked, “Lord, what about him?” Jesus answered, “If I want h [...]

My wife and I were watching Season 3, Episode 4 “A Little Drop of Poison” from the British version of Professor T when the Professor mentioned Lillian Gilbreth and her book The Psychology of Management (1914) regarding “time and motion studies.” The study triggered something for the Professor that was a clue to help him solve a crime. The current condition of our mismanaged government might be abl [...]

I’ve debated with myself over whether I should respond to Thomas Ice’s awful article about me and my book End Times Fiction, since republished as Left Behind: Separating Fact From Fiction, that Brannon Howse published on his Worldview Weekend site. In his first response to my original argument, Brannon argued that he does not teach on the rapture, and his site and conferences do not spend much tim [...]

During an interview on February 16th with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CBS’s “Face the Nation” anchor Margaret Brennan said that Nazis “weaponized” free speech to conduct the Holocaust. Rubio was incredulous at Brennan’s ignorance of history: “There was no free speech in Nazi Germany. There was none. There was also no opposition in Nazi Germany, they were a sole and only party that governed tha [...]

Rachel Held Evans (1981-2019) was a Christian columnist, blogger, and author who supported same-sex marriage because “Jesus never talked about it.” This is a frequent argument for supporters of same-sex marriage and the LGBTQ+ agenda. She also stated that the creeds don’t mention anything about homosexuality. So here we are today where “The town of Worcester, Massachusetts, voted to become a ‘sanc [...]

The question that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) should be asking is under what constitutional provision does the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) derive its authority? Some might point to the Preamble and the General Welfare clause in the body of the Constitution: WE, THE PEOPLE of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure [...]

One of the arguments used against a preterist interpretation of Revelation is that it was developed by Spanish Jesuit Luis De Alcazar (1554-1613) who wrote a commentary titled Vestigio Arcani Sensus in Apocaplysi or Investigation of the Hidden Sense of the Apocalypse and was published a year after his death. “In this work dedicated to the Catholic Church, he made a new attempt to interpret the Apo [...]
