Many of my Christian brethren are what one would call right-wing fundamentalists. They are actively engaged in politics and strive to implement what they regard as a more Christian system into government. Many will claim that the United States was founded on Christian principles, and should continue to purport Christian principles because it is a…

How Should Christians Handle Doubt?
The problem of doubt has arisen in the mind of almost every Christian throughout history, and in fact, non-believers sometimes have an axe to grind, namely, to persuade people to doubt their faith. This is especially prevalent in modern society, with the advance of modern science and the claims of scientists and laymen about what…
What Does God Want From Me?
There is an array of spirituality to choose from throughout the world, in fact even throughout Christianity. There are a number of denominations that display signs and wonders, people going through bizarre rituals and behaviors (especially the charismatics), which look very similar to Pagan practices.

Should Christians Study Church Heresy?
Though a minority, it is rather ironic that the most outspoken and proselytizing are those who are members of a heretical sect and adhere to unorthodox theology. Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons are those that we find knocking on our doors, browsing our neighborhoods and searching for people who they can speak with. In fact many…
How To Evangelize
When we think of evangelism, we often become very uncomfortable with the precedent set down by certain religious groups, knocking on doors, accosting strangers in the street and so forth. Now I do not condemn anybody who has the strength to talk to strangers in the street, but that sort of witnessing is not compatible…
