TCW Minute: What Triggers God’s Judgment? (Week of June 24, 2019)

2019-06-28T11:11:41-05:00Jun 28, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: |

What triggers God’s judgment?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Today God is mainly portrayed as a God of love, compassion, and forgiveness.  This is true…but it’s not the full truth.

The actual God of the Bible is also One whose judgment falls on those who willfully and unrepentantly disobey Him.  Consider the global flood God caused to destroy all breathing life.  Or how the Jews, God’s chosen people, were punished, killed, or […]

The “Christian Persecution Act”.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
One Christian professor says about the Equality Act: “It is the most dangerous bill to freedom of speech and the free exercise of religion that has ever been proposed on a national level.”
The Equality Act adds “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” to federal non-discrimination law.  What you can’t do based on another’s ethnicity would […]

TCW Minute: Worldview Change in the Country and Church (Week of May 20, 2019)

2019-05-24T10:36:36-05:00May 24, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

What has changed the country and the church?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Over the last many decades, our country has cast off biblical foundations in favor of humanistic values.  And the evangelical church, instead of obeying the call to be separate from the world, has become more like it.

Satan and our sin nature are always at work, but where that work has been most effective is through higher education, whether […]

TCW Minute: Socialism in the Country and Church (Week of May 13, 2019)

2019-05-17T12:46:06-05:00May 17, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

Socialism in the country and the church.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Socialism is a worldview which believes a bigger government ordering every aspect of life will result in a better, more equitable society.

And it’s rising in popularity, with policies such as universal health care, universal basic income, government-controlled public education, free college, open borders, redefining of marriage and morality, and social justice.

When the latter enters the church, the gospel is […]

TCW Minute: Man’s Work v. Christ’s Work (Week of April 29, 2019)

Only two religions.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Jewish radio host Dennis Prager and Christian pastor Alistair Begg recently took part in an event to discuss theological issues.

Their interchange made clear that all religions, including some Christian ones, are based on man earning favor through doing works.  Only biblical Christianity is based on Christ earning favor for us through His work on the cross.

It’s the difference that makes all the difference.

Romans […]

TCW Minute: The Believer’s Union with Christ (Week of April 22, 2019)

The believer’s union with Christ.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

One of the most important—yet under-emphasized—doctrines is the believer’s union with Christ in His death and resurrection.

Paul writes in Romans 6: For if we have become united with Christ in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection.

This means that just as Christ died to sin on the cross, believers should consider themselves […]

TCW Minute: Pete Buttigieg and a False Gospel (Week of April 15, 2019)

2019-04-20T22:37:42-05:00Apr 15, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

Pete Buttigieg and a false gospel.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

A relatively unknown 37-year-old mayor of South Bend, Indiana named Pete Buttigieg is running third in the Democrat nomination for president.

Buttigieg is a Harvard graduate, Rhodes Scholar, and U.S. Navy veteran.

He is also a “married homosexual” who speaks frequently of his progressive Christian faith, asserting the gospel is about helping the poor, the stranger, the hurting.

That’s what the Bible calls […]

TCW Minute: Week of April 8, 2019: Faithful in Persecution

2019-04-12T12:31:20-05:00Apr 12, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

Faithful in persecution.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Over the course of American history, Christianity has gone from being revered to being cast aside from public life.

This devolution is occurring so rapidly that Christians are marginalized, even persecuted, for holding to orthodox biblical beliefs, particularly on marriage and morality.

Granted, persecution of Christians in America is not comparable to what is being endured by brethren worldwide.  But we might get there and […]

TCW Minute: No Russia Collusion for the President (Week of April 1, 2019)

No Russia collusion for the President.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

After a two-year investigation that included scores of lawyers and FBI agents, which led to 37 indictments and five prison sentences, and that cost taxpayers an estimated $34M, it turns out that President Trump did not collude with the Russian government in the 2016 election.

The Bible says, “You shall not bear a false report; do not join your hand with […]

TCW Minute: Religious Rights v. Homosexual Demands (Week of March 25, 2019)

2019-03-28T10:11:00-05:00Mar 25, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|

Religious rights v. homosexual demands.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

As the men of Sodom surrounded Lot’s house to impose their homosexuality, the homosexual/transgender movement is seeking the same through a new bill called the “Equality Act” (H.R. 5).

The bill would add sexual orientation and gender identity to federal non-discrimination law, with no religious exemption for Christian organizations.  For example, it would be illegal for a church to refuse a homosexual […]
