Professor but not possessor? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
Jesus says in Matthew 7 that many will call Him “Lord” and do great works in His name, but that he will still declare to them on judgment day: “I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.”
How can this be? Well, there is an eternal destination of difference between professing to be a Christian and actually possessing genuine […]
Urban problems, biblical solutions. This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Is spanking child abuse? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Why did Jesus need to be fully man and fully God? This is David Wheaton with The Christian Worldview Radio Program.
It’s known as the hypostatic union of Christ—that Jesus had both a human nature and and a divine nature. The Bible says: the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Is the Islamic State “not Islamic”? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

How do we process all the bad news? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
It turns the stomach to watch the evil in the world: Islamists beheading Americans, the persecution or killing of Christians, passenger planes missing or shot down, deadly viruses, and a pervasive rejection of God, His Son, and His Word in our nation with regard to marriage, family, and morality.
The Bible tells us to pay attention to the signs […]

We live in a sin-cursed world where trials, disease, and death are painful facts of life.
