Hold Back the Night

There are powerful forces abroad in Europe and America that seek to destroy the Christian faith. Nowhere is this more evident than in Finland where a member of the Finnish Parliament and a Christian pastor have been put on trial for publically quoting the Bible and publishing a booklet promoting traditional sexual ethics. Pavi Rasanan, […]

The Gauntlet Has Been Thrown

On August 11 Attorney General Garland threw down a gauntlet in the face of Congress by appointing David Weiss as special counsel to investigate Joseph Biden.. The sheer audacity of it astounds me. Does he believe that this bold move will shock and blind us to the point we will become oblivious to the evil […]

Faith, HOPE, and Love

Who can forget the Apostle Paul’s beautiful paean to Faith, Hope, and Love, with a special emphasis on Love. Today, I wish to emphasize hope. These are dark and troubled times. We are engaged in a great spiritual battle for the soul of our nation. At times I feel as Lot and his family must […]

A Sad Day

Yesterday was a sad day for the republic. For the fourth time we saw a former President indicted on spurious charges. Any conviction in these cases is almost certain to be overturned when appealed to the higher courts. The entire sordid mess is an attempt to cripple the candidacy of Donald Trump during the coming […]

Impasse

The situation regarding the Biden family appears to have arrived at an impasse. The House of Representatives is controlled by the Republicans, though by a slim majority. Several House committees have launched examinations of the Biden family. and they have uncovered very strong evidence of malfeasance and bribery by Joseph Biden while he was Vice […]

Lies and Lying

My son Stuart sent me the followung bit of wisdom. “Not all falsehoods are lies.  When the weatherman gets a forecast wrong, only the most jaded among us would accuse the weather bureau of lying.   “When George W. Bush ordered the U.S. military into Baghdad based on the mistaken belief, based on faulty intelligence, that there were weapons of mass […]

Why the Hate and the Fear?

One thing about Trump and his enemies has always puzzled me is the ferocity of the hate directed against the man. I understand the intense dislike. Trump can be ugly and petty, and he does not hesitate to launch vicious barbs against anyone who criticizes him or opposes him. But the hatred and fear of […]

Seeing and Believing

Do you only believe in those things that you can see, touch, hear, or feel, or are you open to the possibility of other dimensions — even spiritual dimensions? It is certainly true that we have a very limited perception of the the things that go on around us. For example, let us talk about […]

Looking for an Honest Democrat

I know that, in the main, politicians are a sorry lot. I believe it was Mark Twain who once said, “America has no distinctively native criminal class except Congress.” And it was either Twain or Will Rogers who quipped that “Once in a while an innocent man is elected to Congress.” I am beginning to […]

Justice Betrayed

Today Attorney General Garland announced the appointment of David Weiss to investigate Hunter Biden’s activities. Weiss is the same man who less than two weeks ago was ready to give Hunter Biden a plea deal that would have substituted misdemeanor charges against Hunter rather than charge him with severe and provable criminal offenses. Fortunately, the […]
