Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.  Proverbs 14:34

Back in August, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo stated, ”We’re not going to make America great again. It was never that great.”

This is the sentiment of many on the political left, who view America as historically and structurally racist against blacks, sexist against women, intolerant toward Muslims and other non-Christians, bigoted toward homosexuals and transgenders, and not nearly helpful enough to the […]

Social justice is a gospel issue?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

That statement—“Social justice is a gospel issue”—has become the rallying call of many evangelicals, as in Christians must work to end perceived oppression.  But is that biblically supportable?

Well, what did Jesus say and do?  Did He work to end the structures of racism, sexism, and the myriad of other injustices of His day?  The answer is no.  He preached the […]

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you, but to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?  Micah 6:8

“Social justice is a gospel issue.”  If you’ve heard this said once recently, you’ve likely heard it dozens of times.

This phrase has become the rallying cry of prominent evangelical leaders, many of which are under 50, who believe that Christians and the church […]

For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  Romans 8:38-39

The last two weeks on the program, we have discussed discernment and apostasy.  Discernment is the call for the believer to measure everything, especially spiritual […]

They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out, so that it would be shown that they all are not of us. (1 John 2:19).

Last week on the program, Mike Gendron, founder of Proclaiming the Gospel, joined us to discuss the importance of discernment, which is the ability to distinguish between truth and […]

Are you practicing discernment?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The apostle John said, “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world (1 John 4:1).

Do we really believe this, that there are many professing Christians sewing seeds of error that lead people away from the truth?

Well, we’d better, because Satan relentlessly works to […]

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.  Psalm 33:12

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) said at a bill signing event this past week, “We’re not going to make America great again.  It was never that great.”

Of course the impetus for this comment is in response to Pres. Donald Trump’s campaign slogan and repeated call to “Make America Great Again.”

Governor Cuomo’s remark is representative […]

“…if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do.  An overseer, then, must be above reproach…”
1 Tim. 3:1-2

The implosion is now complete for Bill Hybels and Willow Creek Church, the highly-influential mega-church in Chicago that Hybels founded and led for four decades.  However the consequences will be felt by those involved and the evangelical church at large for years to come.

This week the entire board […]
