Nashville, Holland and Christian Persecution

Jan 14, 2019

The Battle for Religious Freedom in Australia

Dec 17, 2018

Plenty of ink has already been spilled on the government response to the recently-released Ruddock report on religious freedom, but let me present a few more words on it. First, I will offer a number of brief considerations, and then

The War Against “Conversion Therapy”

Dec 11, 2018

The Assault on Christianity: War Within and War Without

Dec 5, 2018

Things are getting worse by the day for the church in the West. Yes, much good is still happening, and many strong churches still exist. But most honest and discerning observers would see that overall the church is in a

John Allen Chau, Missions, Truth, and Other Weighty Matters

Nov 30, 2018

Most folks would have heard about a young American missionary who went to a remote island to evangelise an unreached people group. For his efforts he was killed with bows and arrows and buried by the tribesmen. All sorts of

A Review of Get Out Now. By Mary Rice Hasson and Theresa Farnan.

Nov 27, 2018

Regnery, 2018.

The classroom has now become a battle ground. The school system that most of us went to decades ago is no longer recognisable, because the radical takeover of Western education is now nearly complete. The biggest winners in

The Labor/Greens Ongoing War on Christianity

Nov 23, 2018

We Told You So: Fake Marriage Impacts ALL Of Us

Nov 19, 2018

“Nothing will change when homosexual marriage is legalised.” “Stop fearmongering – this will not affect you.” “Allowing homosexuals to marry will not impact anyone else.” “The bigots are lying about how homosexual marriage will have negative consequences.”

These and dozens

Rainbow Repression: We Told You So

Oct 20, 2018

Evidently it is not good form to rub it in and say things like ‘we told you so’. But, well, we DID tell you so. I and others repeatedly sought to alert people to this. We warned you for years.

The Ongoing War on Christian Education

Oct 16, 2018

Our Sickening Sexual Sewer

Oct 6, 2018

The greater something is the more it will be abused, twisted and assaulted. The greatest thing there is is the living God, and he sure receives his fair share of abuse. So too all his good gifts. One of his

Persecution: Will the Real Christians Please Stand Up

Sep 11, 2018
