Educating the Zombies of Tomorrow

October 15, 2019October 15, 2019 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

Christian elder and blogger Tim Challies has written an article asking “What if God doesn't Care a Whole Lot About How You Educate Your Children?” Actually, the title is the form of a question, but article takes the form of an answer and an argument. He proposes that God does not much care how you … Continue reading Educating the Zombies of Tomorrow

Agreeing to disagree

February 25, 2018 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

Let's face it, we're going to have disagreements. As a Christian I expect to have disagreements with other Christians and with non-Christians. Some of these disagreements will be a big deal, and others will be small potatoes. There are a number of cases where we can respectfully agree to disagree. What do those look like? … Continue reading Agreeing to disagree

(video) When Worlds Collide, Del Tackett

February 18, 2018February 18, 2018 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

I wanted to share this video in which Del Tackett describes the conflict between Christianity and the man-centered view of post-post-modernism. It's both a stirring call to arms and a clear description of the battle lines. https://youtu.be/GezijxHzDd8

Feet that testify

February 10, 2018February 10, 2018 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

No doubt some will wonder at my use of the phrase God-centered society, asking if I really mean to include the whole country. It might be seem unobtainable to set our sights on the task of convincing the entire United States of America to seek God in all that we do. But that would actually … Continue reading Feet that testify

The bedrock of a worthy life

February 6, 2018February 6, 2018 / Nathan James / 1 Comment

What is the bedrock of a worthy life? This is the question I'd like to ask. What is a life worth living? But even more than that, what is the motive for living that life? What motive is sufficient to tie together the various strands of human responsibility, to bring together the diverse commitments of … Continue reading The bedrock of a worthy life

A dangerous illusion

December 21, 2017 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

In recent times, America has taken to debating what bathroom a person should use. This is an absurd thing to disagree about, since physical differences between boys and girls are obvious. The funny thing is, most of the people who are being so absurd aren't transgender. The push to normalize cross-dressing, gender-reassignment and putting men … Continue reading A dangerous illusion

Unreasonable “faith”

December 14, 2017December 16, 2017 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

Perhaps nothing has done as much damage to the Christian religion as when the word “faith” was redefined to mean believing without a reason, or contrary to reason. It has caused Christians to become unskillful in the use of their God-given ability to reason. It did this by making reason seem unnecessary for a life … Continue reading Unreasonable “faith”

Reasonable faith – what is faith?

November 20, 2017November 19, 2017 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

Perhaps nothing has done as much damage to the Christian religion as when the word "faith" was redefined to mean believing without a reason, or contrary to reason. The idea that faith is belief without a reason has done harm in at least four ways: it has alienated Christians from the God-given ability to reason … Continue reading Reasonable faith – what is faith?

Some detail on the excesses, part 1

November 19, 2017November 18, 2017 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

This post will begin to flesh out the excesses that frequently appear in the teachings of those promoting predestination (think Calvinists). As I wrote previously, I heartily endorse that God foreknows, chooses and predestines men and women to be saved. I also believe that the bible teaches that we have free will. So, while I … Continue reading Some detail on the excesses, part 1

Humanism is cursed by God

September 26, 2017September 26, 2017 / Nathan James / Leave a comment

Humanism is a philosophy and a worldview in conflict with the gospel. It is an alternative religion because it replaces the authority of God with the wisdom of man. Humanism says that the mind of man is sufficient to achieve morality and happiness on its own, without reference to God. Humanism fits very nicely in … Continue reading Humanism is cursed by God
