God shows no favoritism, but accepts people from every nation

I attended St. Peter's Church in Joffa: It turns out that this church is quite significant. Joffa (also known as Jaffa or Yafo) is where Apostle Peter had a vision that indicated that Gentiles can become Christians. The whole story is told in Acts 10, and the interior of the church has a painting that […]

Visiting the Holy Sepulchre

I unfortunately didn't have time to go inside. But I have it on the best Authority that it is empty of the original occupant. If you wish to read more at length about the evidence for resurrection, I recommend this post.

The lifetime of evil

I initially wrote the following in two posts back in 2015. I believe that they are newly relevant in our time. Much of what I wrote in the abstract a decade ago has become more concrete since then, enhancing both their veracity and applicability. Definition and simple examples The lifetime of evil may be defined […]

I am against murder. My enemies are for it. If that's divisive, then so be it.

I am against murder. But there are some who are for it - those who celebrate, condone, or approve of it, or provide support or cover for it through their lies or other assistance. This post is about them. Murder is bad.What do fascists do? Murder.What's an act of hate? Murder.What's a threat to democracy? […]

Your "cultural Christianity" is already "extraordinary evidence"

To all who consider yourselves “culturally Christian”, but get hung up on our supernatural claims because “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”: have you considered the fact that your cultural Christianity IS extraordinary evidence? You didn’t choose another culture. You don’t believe in honor killings, or cannibalism, or foot bindings, or totalitarian states, or human sacrifice, […]

How the two parties should now each move forward

I generally do not like politics. Although I don't consider myself uninformed, I am not a partisan. I take pride in being independent and convincible, and have in fact voted for Republican, Democratic, and neither candidates in recent election cycles. In other words, I am the quintessential swing voter. If either of the two parties […]

Lies, damned lies, and deeper levels of this hellish pit

I don't like politics. I've said before that if I ever get involved in it it'll mean that things have gone seriously wrong. Well, things are pretty bad now in the United States, and one of our problems is the rampant lying in our politics. There are, of course, other problems, but this is one […]

How do you help those kinds of people?

Today is Christmas. I once tried to help a homeless person, in a pretty major way. It was hard, and It didn't go well. Let's just say that it might have been better if I didn't try at all. Which leads me to wonder: how do you help these kinds of people? Homelessness has been […]

Love your enemies

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction. So when Jesus says "Love your enemies," he is setting forth a profound and ultimately inescapable admonition. Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken or we shall be plunged in to the dark abyss of annihilation.

More unoriginal thoughts about the election

My kingdom is not of this world. (John 18:36)Our citizenship is in heaven. (Phil.3:20)We must obey God rather than men. (Acts 5:29)It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. (Ps. 118:8)Do not put your trust in princes; in human beings, who cannot save. (Ps. 146:3)God turns the king's heart […]
