Revering God and His Word. This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
In our distracting and affluent society, with our tendency toward self-sufficiency and human wisdom, with spiritual and human forces relentlessly subverting the Bible, and too many churches and pastors not preaching it soundly and strongly, it’s no wonder God and His Word are not widely revered.
Let’s be reminded what the Bible says in 2 Peter 1:19: We have the prophetic word […]
Why blood? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
The shedding of blood for sin is not peripheral but central to Christianity. God’s word says, “All things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22).
This was pictured in the animal sacrifice system of the Old Testament and then culminated Redemption weekend when Jesus Christ bled and died on the cross as payment for our sin.
Sin is […]
Are you meaningfully worldly? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
“Authentic Christianity assumes a meaningful worldliness” said pastor Art Azurdia in a recent sermon. In other words, Christians should avoid the extremes of assimilation and isolation from the world, but rather engage enough to be used by God in HIs work of redemption.
This is what Jesus prayed for His disciples in John 17: “Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth. […]
Another deadly shooting occurred at a FL high school when a 19-year-old former student killed 17 in a six-minute rampage.
The immediate call was for gun control, as if that is the only solution, despite the fact that the FBI failed to pursue two advance tips about the killer and four on-site armed guard failed to confront him.
While the background check […]
What is the biggest challenge? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
It’s Christians parents raising children who love God as adults. Consider how the sons of Eli, Israel’s high priest, turned out. Or you may know or have an adult child who was raised in a Christian home, but now has little to no interest in the things of God.
What to do? Christian parents must authentically follow Christ themselves and intentionally cultivate […]
Why is the inspiration of Scripture so important? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
In the New Testament, the apostle Paul writes, “All Scripture is inspired by God…”
That God divinely directed the 40 human authors of the Bible is foundational. Because if he didn’t, then Scripture is the words of fallen man and not the true word of God.
The good news is that God didn’t create everything and leave us in the […]
What is your starting point on origins? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
When it comes to the how and when of the origin of the universe, your starting point is all-important. If you start with God’s word as the bottom line for truth, that “in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them”, then man’s word, that nothing exploded into something […]
