Gary points out that making mental connections between things that interest you is a helpful way to learn and remember new things. The brain is a magnificent creation. A typical adult’s brain contains fifteen billion to one hundred billion neurons. If we accept the lower estimate, this means that you and I can remember two-to-the-ten-billionth-power bits of information. How big is this number? It [...]
Gary discusses the second volume of the book, The Hope of Israel and the Nations, and what Kim Burgess calls the “meta-hermeneutic” of the New Testament. History cannot be “sliced and diced” without destroying it. History is an organic whole! One also has to understand what the German term, Sitz im Leben, the “situation in life,” is getting at, for it is vital. One has to take fully in [...]
Leftists love to suppress dissent while decrying banning books. They devote a week to banned books while they regularly ban books. It’s a clever deception. Hillary Clinton is finally telling the truth. “Hillary Clinton Declares ‘We Lose Total Control’ If We Don’t ‘Moderate and Monitor’ Social Media Content More.” Leftists have been in the business of shutting down dissent for a very long time. So- [...]
Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope: Episode 8 Gary discusses the idea put forth by nearly all modern pop prophecy writers that Israel becoming a nation again in 1948 is a “major prophetic sign” of the “end times.” A very popular argument for modern-day Israel being the fulfillment of Bible prophecy uses the fig tree illustration found in Matthew 24:32: “Now learn the [...]
There’s confusion today regarding the last days and the role Israel is said to play. I hope the following will clear up some of the mischaracterizations of Israel and the last days. Are we to believe that after 2000 years a single last-days generation of Jews living in Israel will be slaughtered during soon to occur Great Tribulation based on a reading of Zechariah 13:7-9? “It will come about in a [...]
Gary concludes his talk about the conflict between the Christian worldview and its competitors. The impact of social Darwinism in the African continent is described in Olufemi Oluniyi’s book Darwin Comes to Africa: Social Darwinism and British Imperialism in Northern Nigeria (2023). Oluniyi writes: It is indisputable that later in the nineteenth century, advocates of imperialism, racism, and eugen [...]
In this classic talk given at a Christian home-educators conference, Gary explains why a Christian worldview is so critical and important. Worldviews are seen as vehicles for cultural transformation. Many in the entertainment field believe, for example, that they are the nation’s conscience and the only guiding light for change. Francis Ford Coppola, best known for the critically acclaimed Godfath [...]
Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope: Episode 7 Gary discusses Max Lucado’s new book, What Happens Next: A Traveler’s Guide Through the End of This Age. While referring to Daniel’s prophecy of the 70 weeks of years (9:24-27), Lucado writes, “This gloomy prophecy was fulfilled on August 6, AD 70. Titus of Rome destroyed Jerusalem, killed a million Jews, and tore the temple apart stone by [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! We do not know what a political candidate will do once in office. God did tell Samuel what Israel’s choice of a king would do, and the people still wanted this king (1 Sam. 8). We know what the Democrats have in store for us. We also know what establishment Republicans have in store for us. (I wrote some of this article in 2016. Substitute “Kamala” for &ldq [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! Gary concludes his interview with Brett Prieto about worldviews and morality. Author Matt Ridley attempts to account for morality among evolved human animals as “a spontaneous thing produced by social interaction among people seeking to find ways to get along.” How does he know this since it’s hard to trust an evolved brain that arose from lower life forms, something t [...]
The “Liberal Democrat” political party in the United Kingdom is demanding that a Christian politician, in defense of his beliefs, must prove in court the divinity of Jesus Christ. C.S. Lewis wrote a series of essays that were compiled and published in the book God in the Dock. To be “in the dock” means to be on trial. In the case proving the divinity of Jesus and the existence of God, the creature [...]
This is part one of an interview by Brett Prieto about Gary’s book, Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor. Archimedes (287?-212 BC) once boasted that given the proper lever and a place to stand, he could “move the earth.” His problem was that he and his fulcrum needed something to stand on for the lever to do its work. Archimedes couldn’t stand on the Earth to move the Earth. [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! We’re very near our goal. Please help us reach the $10,000 mark by September 30 by donating today. Pro-killing unborn children, supporting genital mutilation of children via transgenderism, and defending an array of gender definitions and the courts to enforce them have become common practices in our day. Same-sex marriage and abortion must be defended at all costs. We [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! Gary discusses MAGA, Trump, and the Washington DC political machine. Politics is one biblical sphere of God’s delegated temporal governments; family and church governments are two others. Politics (civil government) has a major impact on our lives. It’s the Christian’s duty to be involved, if only to keep the State from imposing its will over us and oppressing the chur [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! Gary discusses the economic concept of tradeoffs. Thomas Sowell wrote about this years ago and it’s something that liberals do not understand. Because man is created in God’s image, he is an innately religious being: every aspect of his life will reflect his relationship to God. Man’s culture, therefore, is necessarily religious and covenantal, as Hen [...]
Many Christians gave up on politics after Ronald Reagan’s election. Maybe they thought he would bring in the millennium or something close to it. And when George H. W. Bush got elected, Bill Clinton got elected twice, and George W. Bush turned out to be a huge disappointment, hopelessness set in. All that work, and for what? Christians experiencing political remorse are suffering from a faul [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! Gary discusses the film, The Omega Man, and modern climate armageddonists claiming that the “end is near” due to the use of fossil fuels. The materialists are still trying to prove that God does not exist. If they could only find another highly evolved civilization among the multitude of unexplored galaxies, then such a discovery would prove that no god is [...]
There are numerous critics of the application of God’s law found in the Old Testament as a standard of righteousness in the New Testament. It seems that anyone who advocates such a position has a misunderstanding of fulfillment. It’s a common charge that has been answered numerous times. The letter to the Hebrews describes in detail what laws from the Old Covenant no longer apply, and there isn’t [...]
Gary answers two listener questions, one about the Bible itself and another about sovereign citizenship. We do not defend the Christian faith as a series of separate propositions. We defend the whole package. Men are in sin. God in His grace has pursued man and has provided a revelation of himself. And what we are defending is the entire Bible. There is no way around it. And in the Bible, Jesus is [...]
Help us turn $10K into $20K! Gary discusses pro-abortion nonsense being spoken by Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear. The topic of abortion has become an absolute dividing line in today’s political wars. The Democratic Party believes a woman should have the legal right to kill her unborn baby anytime up to conception on the grounds of “mental health.” A new Virginia law includes the following that wou [...]
