TCW Minute: Making and Keeping Resolutions (Week of Jan. 9, 2017)

2017-01-12T09:29:13-06:00Jan 12, 2017|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|

It’s a new year—so what about making resolutions?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The Bible is full of imperatives—do this, don’t do that.  So resolving to do something for God’s glory, pursued with His strength, is not only good but commanded.

The Bible says in Philippians 2:12-13: Work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for […]

2017-01-08T21:49:31-06:00Jan 07, 2017|Categories: Christian Living, The Christian Worldview Radio Program, Worldview|Tags: , , , |

Work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.  Philippians 2:12-13

The top New Year’s resolution for 2017 is to “lose weight and eat healthier” followed by “self-improvement,” “better financial decisions,” “quit smoking,” “do more exciting things,” and “spend more time with family and friends.”

Nearly 50% of […]

TCW Minute: One Perfect Life (Week of Jan. 2, 2017)

2017-01-06T11:13:58-06:00Jan 02, 2017|Categories: Christian Living, Jesus Christ, The Christian Worldview Minute|

What is God’s solution to man’s biggest problem?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Jesus Christ is the only person who has ever lived a perfect life.  His every thought, word, and deed were perfectly pleasing to God.

The rest of us can’t fathom this perfection, as we all are afflicted with sin in and around us.

But the good news from Scripture is: “[God] made [Christ] who knew no sin to be sin […]

TCW Minute: War on Christmas (Week of Dec. 26, 2016)

2016-12-29T22:06:24-06:00Dec 26, 2016|Categories: Christian Living, Jesus Christ, The Christian Worldview Minute|

Who will win the Christmas war?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

At this time of year, we hear about the “war on Christmas”—nativity scenes banned from public spaces, atheists putting up billboards against Christmas, and employees pressured to say “happy holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas.”

There may be a war on Christmas, but did you know that Christ’s birth was a declaration of war by God that ultimately results in victory over sin, […]

“Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night.” (Revelation 12:10b)

At this time of year, we hear news reports about the “war on Christmas”: […]

TCW Minute: Cradle to Cross (Week of Dec. 19, 2016)

2016-12-22T18:30:46-06:00Dec 22, 2016|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|

How does Christ’s cradle relate to His cross?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The Christmas carol that starts: What child is this, who, laid to rest, On Mary’s lap is sleeping?

goes on to say: Nails, spears shall pierce him through, the cross he bore for me, for you.

Jesus was born to die.  To abbreviate Hebrews 2:7, Jesus had to be made like His brethren in all things … to make propitiation […]

GUEST: Stuart Epperson Jr., author, First Words of Jesus

He [Jesus] had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.  Hebrews 2:17

Jesus the Messiah was born to die.  The cradle that held the baby Christ that we celebrate at Christmas leads right to the cross where the […]

TCW Minute: How Do We Pursue Sanctification? (Week of Dec. 12, 2016)

2016-12-16T10:54:12-06:00Dec 12, 2016|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

How does a Christian pursue sanctification?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Sanctification means being set apart for God or holiness.  In Scripture, God is described as “holy, holy, holy” and believers are called to “be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:14-16

But how?  The pursuit of sanctification is more than just doing what is right and […]

GUEST: Michael Riccardi, author, Sanctification: The Christian Pursuit of God-Given Holiness

As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy”. 1 Peter 1:14-16

“Christians cannot afford to be confused about the doctrine of sanctification.  That is […]
