Avoid the Language of “Already, and Not Yet”

Hyper-Pious Love vs. Biblical Love
From Contra Mundum, Volume I, 1955 The Biblical and the socialist-communist laws of love are irreconcilable and are in mortal conflict. They are not primarily two laws about “love” in varying degrees, with the socialist law having a higher degree … Continue reading

The Manhattan Declaration and the Lordship of Christ
Andrew Sandlin responds to John Macarthur in his latest article Lordship Salvation is Not Enough: But the fact is, the state must never be about the Gospel or redemption, only about justice (Rom. 13:1–7). We have a name for political … Continue reading

C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity: Analysis and Application Part VI

The Garden and Labor Day Part I
Americans and Canadians celebrated Labor Day on the 4th of September. Naturally, they slept in, barbecued with family, and enjoyed a peaceful evening at home. Certainly every man is worthy of rest and for some, the limited rest just isn’t … Continue reading
