The word modern ordinarily refers to what is present-day, innovative, current, or adapted to contemporary circumstances. In many areas of life, modernization can be beneficial. Churches may use modern technology, communicate through contemporary med...

The most spiritually serious religious story of this week is not only that controversial religious movements are again in the news. It is that false spiritual authority, political access, money, and apocalyptic claims are converging in ways that for...

The recent exposure of the private Dialog network has become a revealing test of Christian discernment. It is tempting either to treat the whole matter as harmless elite networking or to rush immediately into a totalizing theory of world control. Sc...

A church is not established to discover new truth by majority vote. It exists to receive, proclaim, defend, and obey the truth God has already revealed. Ministers are heralds of God’s Word, not editors appointed to modernise it. Elders are shepherds...

Every day, people plan as though tomorrow belongs to them. They arrange careers, weddings, investments, journeys, businesses, retirement, and ambitions extending decades into the future. Planning responsibly is not wrong. Scripture itself commends w...

Human beings have always behaved as though tomorrow were guaranteed. We build, trade, marry, study, invest, celebrate, and plan years ahead. None of these activities is sinful in itself. The danger begins when ordinary life becomes a sedative, numbi...

Football is one of the most influential forms of entertainment in the world. Children imitate famous players, adults organise their schedules around matches, supporters wear club colours, and victories or defeats can affect entire communities. For m...

Recent embryo-editing reports have pushed an old moral question back into the center of public life: is the child a creature to be received under God, or a biological project to be optimized by man? That question is not anti-science. It is prior to ...

On July 17, 2026, the watchful church should look carefully at Lebanon, Israel, and the renewed diplomatic activity around southern Lebanon. This is not because every Middle East negotiation is automatically the fulfillment of Daniel 9:27. Scripture...

A church can be captured without changing the words of its creed. It may still sing, incense may still rise, Scripture may still be read, vestments may still be worn, and ancient names may still be honored. Yet if its governing loyalty has quietly m...

The most urgent question before many Christian parents is no longer simply whether their children will learn mathematics, history, reading, science, or civic responsibility. The deeper question is: who is being trusted to define the child? Across se...

Every generation has known war, disease, political upheaval, false teaching, and moral decline. What distinguishes our moment is the speed with which global communication places the world’s suffering before us. Before breakfast, a person may encount...

The renewed struggle over the Epstein files is not merely a political story, a celebrity scandal, or another episode in America’s exhausting war of factions. It is a moral test. It asks whether a society still has the courage to protect the wounded,...

The present concern is not that every charismatic Christian, Pentecostal believer, or politically active evangelical belongs to one secret movement. That would be false witness. The concern is more specific and more spiritually serious: a growing pu...

The expression “the time of Jacob’s trouble” comes from Jeremiah 30:7, where the prophet declares: “How awful that day will be! There will be no other like it! It will be a time of trouble for Jacob, but he will be saved out of it.” This prophecy po...
