Later this month, Russell Moore – President of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethic and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) – will be attending a conference at the Vatican meant to bolster a defense of “traditional marriage.” As wonderful as it is that most Southern Baptists and the Bishop of Rome (and self-pronounced “Vicar of Christ on […]

posted by Joel Taylor
Now it came about, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose. Then the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, […]

A few months ago, a small Illinois community took part in a song writing contest. They were invited to write a song, sing it and upload it to YouTube. Green Shoe Studios, who sponsored the contest, never expected to receive a song from a 96 year old gentleman whose wife had recently passed away. Fred […]

Polyamory: The Next Frontier of Civil Rights
posted by Joel Taylor
Same-sex marriage is so 2013. DC’s permanent revolution isn’t about to stop now that the courts are about to make homosexuality the new normal. What’s next? Polyamory, or multiple-partner marriage, that’s what. And how interesting that Unitarians, who were central to the civil rights revolution of the 60s, and its continuation into the same-sex marriage […]

How God Views Homosexuals
posted by Joel Taylor
Way too often, Christians view homosexuality far, far differently than God does. In Scripture, the male prostitute, sodomite, and homosexual is described vividly and it tells us unequivocally how God views homosexuality and homosexuals themselves. First, Deuteronomy 23:18 – You shall not bring the hire of a harlot or the wages of a dog into […]

You shall not commit adultery. – Exodus 20:14 Updated: It may be helpful in understanding the quote below knowing a few things in context. The seventh commandment is concerned with protecting marriage. Next to the covenant with Christ to be your Savior, there is no covenant more sacred. The importance of marriage transcends the family […]

Worldly Evangelism–It Stinketh to High Heaven
posted by Joel Taylor
I am very disappointed. James White has coupled himself with hip-hop artists and new calvinist methods in order to proclaim a biblical message in a popular way. In other words, using what the world loves in order to reach the world. It is both shameful and inexcusable. For the record, if the genre of music […]
The Death of Love
posted by Joel Taylor
from Timothy Hammons: Jerry Johnson of The Nicene Council, does an excellent job of showing that true-biblical love has slowly died since the beginning of the Romantic age in literature. What has replaced biblical love is romantic love, based upon our base emotions toward a person instead of our covenantal commitment spoken of in Scripture. […]

by Matt Trewhella Every year thousands of Christians amble down to their local county courthouse and obtain a marriage license from the State in order to marry their future spouse. They do this unquestioningly. They do it because their pastor has told them to go get one, and besides, “everybody else gets one.” This article […]

Forget You

Husbands, God commanded you to love your wife as Christ loved the Church. Jesus loved the Church so much, he set aside everything that is His, for you. To redeem you. As long as you put yourself first in your marriage, you are not loving your wife as Christ loved the Church. Forget you. You […]
