The problem with the pharisees is that they made their standards more binding than God’s standards. And our problem is that too often, we fail to recognize that we’re much like the Pharisees. If the Pharisees were in America today, they might shame Christians for voting for Trump. If the Pharisees were in America today,…

No matter what we think about it, our nations have adopted a crisis socialism to protect, in their mind, the common good and public health of all people—except preborn babies. Concerns over the coronavirus have compelled nations to deem many businesses unessential, forcing many businesses and services into closure. However, our governments have declared abortion…

A nation that strips my neighbours’ liberty to sin will strip my liberty to call my neighbour into repentance. Liberty isn’t liberty unless it affirms my right to offend my neighbour and my neighbour’s right to offend me. The government shouldn’t infringe on my neighbours’ pursuit of happiness, and it shouldn’t infringe on my liberty…
