A Review of ‘I Kid You Not’. By Lyle Shelton.

Jul 15, 2020

Connor Court, 2020.

Lyle Shelton’s autobiography will encourage you to keep on keeping on:

Anyone knowledgeable about the culture wars and the work of the Australian Christian Lobby will be familiar with many of the stories found in this new

A Review of The Sexual State. By Jennifer Roback Morse.

Nov 25, 2019

TAN Books, 2018.

We all need to avail ourselves of the wisdom and analysis found in this excellent volume:

What hath the sexual revolution wrought? Plenty, and most of it is real bad news. And Jennifer Roback Morse ought to

The Sexual Revolutionaries Spewing Hate Again

Nov 8, 2019

The continued persecution of the great Margaret Court shows just how far the sexual militants have progressed:

So just who are the most bigoted, intolerant and hate-filled folks around? Well I can tell you this: they sure are not those

Finally, a Brave and Biblical Church Leader

Oct 16, 2019

Thank God for one bold and biblical churchman, Glenn Davies:

Today in far too many churches – including supposedly Bible-based evangelical churches – we find this mindset in action: ‘Hey, Jesus was a friend of sinners, and we should be

And Now Australia Post is Promoting Fake Marriage

Aug 29, 2019

So now Australia has fake marriage postage stamps!

Why is Australia Post – a government-owned business – forcing on Australians something that millions of people are fully against? Why are they using their monopoly powers in selling stamps to support

On Taking Marriage and Faithfulness Seriously

Jul 12, 2019

We live of course in an age that mocks faithfulness, derides marriage, and pokes fun at personal holiness. Anyone who takes his marriage vows seriously and seeks to be very careful in honouring that by taking care of how he

It’s the Jolly Poly Perversion Parade

Jul 11, 2019

“Nothing will change” they told us. “Everything will remain the same” they insisted. “Legalising homosexual marriage will impact none of us” they promised. Baloney. It changes everything, just as I and others predicted. Indeed, we knew this was all part

The Leftist Disease of Double Standards

Jan 24, 2019

What was that word again? You know the one: it starts with “h” and ends with “ypocrisy”. If there was any one term that perfectly describes the left, it would be this one. How many times have I pointed out

Nashville, Holland and Christian Persecution

Jan 14, 2019

One might think that the land of country music and the Grand Ole Opry has little to do with the land of Erasmus and Rembrandt. But there is in fact a connection, and even I have a bit of a

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

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

Pink Apostates

Jul 14, 2018

There IS such a thing as apostasy, and there ARE such things as apostates. When folks deny key biblical truths and effectively call the Lord Jesus Christ a liar, they have become apostates. One way in which apostasy rears its

Difficult Bible Passages: Matthew 22:30

Jul 7, 2018

So what happens to marriage when believers get to heaven? The passage we are discussing here seems to tell us that it will become superfluous. That may be of concern to many, especially those who have had a close, loving

More on Phillips, SCOTUS and Religious Freedom

Jun 6, 2018

Yesterday I wrote about the victory of Colorado cake-maker Jack Phillips. While I still stand with that piece, the only thing I regret was the title I ran with – in haste. I had to dash out, so I quickly

A Massive Win for Religious Freedom

Jun 5, 2018

There is some great news for a change coming out of America at the moment. A court case concerning religious freedom has actually gone the way of conscientious Christians over against militant homosexual activists. While this ruling has not resolved

On the Royal Wedding

May 19, 2018

Millions and millions of people have just watched the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, held at Windsor Castle and televised to the watching world. I notice that here in Australia channels 7, 9, ABC and SBS were

Wisdom, Biblical Truth and Apostasy

May 5, 2018

Although this piece is mainly about a famous Christian theologian, let me begin with a bit of an autobiographical intro. I just read again the request of Solomon when he had established his kingdom and God asked him what he

“Safe Schools” and the Sexual Agenda Big Picture

Apr 18, 2018

The controversies over the so-called Safe Schools programs in Australia are simply a reflection of a much bigger war. For many decades now activists have sought to target our children especially through the school system. Various sex education programs and

On Christian Politicians and Consorting With Evil

Mar 5, 2018

An interesting discussion came up on the social media just recently. One terrific conservative writer spoke about meeting an Australian Premier and commented on her Christian faith. I and others quickly pointed out that just two days earlier she was
