Three years ago, I discovered a bulge in my left calf. I checked online to determine what it might be. Not much help. I went to the local Doc-in-the Box. From there, I made an appointment with an Orthopedic doctor. After several tries, he was stumped. He could have speculated, but he did not want to...

The way that God saved a remnant in Elijah’s day, God was saving a remnant in Paul’s day: “In the same way, then, there is also at the present time a remnant chosen by grace” (Romans 11:5).

Gary begins a response to an individual who says he left partial preterism for dispensationalism. What did the church in Philadelphia think Jesus meant when He told them, “I am coming soon [ταχύς]; hold fast what you have, so that no one will take your crown”? (Rev. 3:11) Who is Jesus addre...

Civil authorities are to rule in terms of “good and evil.” Those who rule are bound by the same laws as the rest of us. There is no divine right of kings (or politicians) in the Bible.

Albert Mohler asked this question in the July 2006 issue of TABLETALK, a monthly devotional published by Ligonier: “Is Your Church Worth Invading?” Good question. What will your church leadership do if the Federal Government and your state government and their courts tell your pastor to stop pre...

Many Christians today are afraid of new wine theology because it often bursts their traditional and unbiblical passive and pietist theology.

Gary continues his comments on a recent interview with author and apologist Frank Turek. He talks about worldview, culture, history, and “Grape Juice Christianity.” During my talk that morning, after describing how Christians might teach on Paul’s actions after he was beaten and imprisoned by ...
