Democratic congressman Alan Grayson from Florida accused Republicans of wanting Americans to “die quickly” if they get sick. Of course, Republicans are outraged. We’ll have to see how the Democrats respond. For those of you who have short memories or were not around in 1984, you may not be aware that the Democrat Governor of Colorado. Richard D. Lamm, said the following: “W [...]
“What do you say in response to all of the people saying that you are secretly a friend to hyperpreterists?” – Question submitted by Aduro in The Christian Worldview Forum I am a very visible friend to a number of hyperpreterists. There is nothing secret about it. I am also friends with dispensationalists. I count Tim LaHaye, Thomas Ice, and Mark Hitchcock as friends, although I can’t get th [...]

A University of Oregon research team claims “that evolution can never go backwards, because the paths to the genes once present in our ancestors are forever blocked.” Isn’t that convenient. This study is another evolutionary dodge. While we’re told to keep our eye on the ball, they’re slipping another one under the cup. According to evolutionists, the cosmos began as a super hot mass of molten “st [...]
If government had its way, oil prices would be regulated and “excessive” profits taxed. The majority of Americans support higher taxes on the oil companies because of short-term self-interest. This is why many of the people who are protesting the healthcare bill are really protesting the possibility that their present government healthcare benefits will be cut. The majority of Americans like gover [...]

In 1982 I wrote my first book: God and Government: A Biblical and Historical Study. It begins with the operating premise that government is not synonymous with politics. Slef-government under God is the basis of social change. When people change, everything they put their mind and hands to will change. Have you noticed in the past few weeks how irrelevant our politicians have become? Democrats and [...]
In 1861, a small Presbyterian denomination known as the Covenanters, founded in 1809 in Western Pennsylvania, created a petition that pointed out that the Constitution made no reference to Jesus Christ and the law of God. “The petition received initial support from Senator Charles Sumner, and in 1862 two Covenanter ministers presented the document to President Lincoln.
