Reformed vs. Re-formed: A Synopsis–North American Anglican

https://northamanglican.com/reformed-vs-re-formed-a-synopsis/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=reformed-vs-re-formed-a-synopsis I did my best to follow this back and forth, but it wasn't easy. For me, however, the key point finally came here: The crux of this dispute is the nature and substance of the English Reformation. The basic facts of what occurred during the English Reformation are generally agreed upon, but its larger …

If They’re Going to Make it the Gulf of America…

Trump's "proposal" to rename the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America" brings to mind many things. One of them is this chart, put out by our government in 1967, showing it as the "Gulf of Mexico" (which would be altered on things issued by the U.S. government if this came to pass): This was …

Book Review: Iain Murray’s Evangelicalism Divided: A Record of Crucial Change in the Years 1950-2000

It’s a new year, and for the Church of England it’s time to find a new Archbishop of Canterbury after the disastrous reign of Justin Welby. When Welby was enthroned, there was a great deal of enthusiasm about him. He’s an evangelical, they said; he can fix the problems of heterodoxy that plague the Church …

Remembering Jimmy Carter

Ever since his passing on Sunday, the media has lionised--and social media denigrated--Jimmy Carter. One statement in Al Mohler's piece on Carter caught my attention: Time does seem to mellow powerful memories—even powerful political memories. That is especially true when most Americans alive today were not yet born when Carter left the White House, overwhelmingly …

Book Review: We Believe: An Exposition of the Church of God Declaration of Faith

Thanks to recent events, the whole business of the Church of God Declaration of Faith has become more important. Those of us who teach at Church of God institutions such as Lee University—even when that teaching isn’t theological in nature—are required to avoid teaching that which is contrary to the Declaration of Faith. Our ministers …

The Lone Star State is soaring — Unherd

The United States is a misnomer. Despite its title, our republic has rarely been united, instead hosting an endless gladiatorial contest between different states and regions. 1,853 more words The Lone Star State is soaring

Why normies idolise Luigi Mangione — Unherd

Imagine if Luigi Mangione had shot the CEO of a company that made light bulbs, or dishwashers, or breakfast cereal. Perhaps a few ideologues on Twitter would have hailed the killing as a justified strike against the one percent. 1,171 more words Why normies idolise Luigi Mangione

Lo! He Comes with Clouds Descending – Second Sunday in Advent — North American Anglican

https://northamanglican.com/lo-he-comes-with-clouds-descending-second-sunday-in-advent/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=lo-he-comes-with-clouds-descending-second-sunday-in-advent This was an old favourite of mine back at Bethesda, but was lost from my worship from "swimming the Tiber" onwards. The last loss was due to the perfidious influence of the Baptists, as I discuss (complete with YouTube video) in my post The Wesleyan Advent Hymn the Wesleyan Pentecostals Don't Sing. It's ironic that …

What next for Syria? — Unherd

It was the clock tower that settled it. The images of rebels driving around the central square of Homs, its famous clocktower visible, confirmed they had taken the city. 1,306 more words What next for Syria?

Trump’s Greatest Slight of Hand

The "ruling" (well, sort of, and less so by the day) political class is still in shock over Donald Trump's victory last month. How did he do it? What can we (if we hate him) do to reverse it sooner or later? What can we (if we love him) do to sustain this victory? (That …
