There is something that transcends this physical material world. Every human knows it, feels it. All humanity, atheists, humanists, agnostics, and all other religions all willingly or unwillingly, knowingly or unknowingly admit that there are two elements of the human existence; purpose/meaning and belonging. These are the essential elements of human existence that will ALWAYS spark spiritual thought and lead to a gospel presentation.

When Christians Support Abortion
Christians can support abortion in different ways. They may support it indirectly but knowingly through an organization, politician, or political party who advocate for abortion. Or they may outright support it directly. Either way, a Christian is supporting something that contradicts their faith, offends God, oppresses life, perpetuates dehumanization, inequality, and hinders the gospel. This article exposes the Christian hypocrisy and false worship of supporting abortion.
The Women's Rights to Her Body
A fundamental argument for abortion is the Woman's Bodily Rights, or "reproductive rights" justification. The ultimate and most common argument for being Pro-"Choice"
(pro-abortion) is the argument for the mother to decide for herself,
leaving the option for abortion wide open and often suggested and
hinted. But is the Fetus her body? Do rights justify immorality? Is her body really her own? There is a fundamental flaw in this logical when it comes to
divine, objective, universal truth.
The Value of A Fetus
As addressed in our article Is a Fetus a Person?, we know that a Fetus is a person. But to dive deeper, we want to understand HOW valuable this small developing growing person is in reality. Is a Fetus of a different value than a grown adult? Are they equal? How can we know? Does the situation of conception justify abortion, such as rape or incest, thus reducing their value?
Is A Fetus, A Living Person?
This is the absolute key issue that impacts all areas of the debate surrounding abortion. Knowing the answer to this makes addressing the issue clear as day. If a fetus is not a child or a living person, what's the harm? It would not be much different than removing cancer or a parasitic growth. BUT If a fetus is a living, growing, person and a small defenseless child... that
would be a moral, ethical, eternal, game changer. But how do we determine this? Do we use Human law? Scientific theories? Do we depend on subjective human definitions?
The Blessing And Priviledge of Oppression
There are two ways to view oppression and persecution; (1) as being a victim and the negative societal effect or (2) as a righteous opportunity with positive eternal effects. But how do we properly see oppression and persecution through the eyes of God? We must take to heart what Jesus spoke and believe it, trust it, and apply it. Are you an oppressed victim or a victorious servant? Does how you handle oppression bring God glory? Is he pleased with how you live under oppression? We need to look at what Christ Jesus reveals to know and see how oppression can be turned on it head. How oppression can be a blessing and privilege in the life of a Christian.
Can We Rightly Judge with Statistics?
The first important question is SHOULD we, as Christians, make judgements on a person, or groups of people, based on Statistics? Can we rightly judge solely based on statistical analysis? Why is this even an issue? It goes to the heart of using statistics to see a need for the gospel. Of course, everyone, at all times everywhere, need the gospel, even we need the gospel. But Jesus strategically went to specific areas and the Apostles went to specific areas, whether it was locations or people groups. But how did they rightly judge where to go and who needed what message first. What does this have to do with racial profiling, prejudice, and rightful judgements?
Who are YOU?
The Worldly Construction of 'Race'
In changing times and as cultural identities evolve, a constant issue has been and seems always will be the struggle of favoritism and discrimination of people who look and act different. Even God's people struggle with this issue to this day. How we address the issue is not found in worldly political strategies and policies but in the truths in Holy Scripture and the Characteristics of God himself.
A Godly Couple
A Godly couple reflects the nature of God and relationship with God between himself and mankind and between Christ and the Church. Only through His original design of holy relationships we see how the power of God is felt and seen. The relationship itself can be seen as powerful in its unity and purity for the rest of the world to see and come to know. What does a Godly Couple look like? What do they do different from the rest of the fallen world?
God's Judgement on America
Is America (and other parts of modern society) changing; is it a good change? This takes some spiritual discernment to correctly understand. Those who are less knowledgeable of scripture and less spiritually discerning of sin may say they see good changes world wide, and in America. Taking a step back and looking through the lens of History and Scripture we see that his is not the case, especially for America. And if America and modern society is not changing for the better (moving closer to God), what is going to happen?
The Godly Wife
This is a hot topic of our age. Despite how the world may try to define spousal roles; God gives us how He has made the ordained role and how it pleases him. From day one, Satan took advantage of the spousal role confusion and looking at the modern family dynamic, not a whole lot has changed. But what are the godly responsibilities of a wife? What will God hold the wife accountable for and how does the true wife role benefit the family unit?
