https://yandoo.wordpress.com/2025/12/03/against-a-world-government/ I've heard many Christian speakers--and their conspiracy theorist counterparts in non-Christian circles--rail against one world government, but this is one of those rare instances where the case against one is laid out in a simple, straightforward fashion.
The Fathers of the Church Come to a Pentecostal University
As some of you know, I teach at Lee University in their new Engineering program. Recently I reserved a computer lab to administer a test, and was regaled with the above, from St. John Chrystostom's Pascal Homily. It was written on the white board (the students were amazed it was in cursive, I guess I …

The Stephen Wood Chaplaincy Case Just Gets Stranger and Stranger
And more acrimonious too: It’s getting downright nasty and legal. ACNA bishops led by Bishop Phil Ashey contend that the charges of misconduct (but not of a sexual nature) laid at the feet of Bishop Derek Jones of the Special Jurisdiction of the Armed Forces and Chaplaincy (SJAFC) are grounds for an inhibition. The complaints …

The Missing Lesson in “The Drama of Confession”
In a recent post by the North American Anglican entitled "The Drama of Confession," the author goes into a long Anglican description of the importance and benefits of confession, with emphasis (justified) on the Anglican "general confessions" that we see in traditional Anglican prayer books. For all of the detail he goes into, he misses …

It’s Time to “Think Before You Convert” to Catholicism Once Again
It's been a while since I've been actively posting to this site, and in looking at my stats an old favourite page has been active again: Think Before You Convert. It's an overview of why you should (or shouldn't) convert to Roman Catholicism or, if you're there why you might want to take your leave. As …

http://thechristiannerd.tech.blog/2025/08/12/is-forgiveness-the-hardest-gift-for-christians/ It may be hard, but it is not optional. I've dealt with this topic in my post The Important Difference Between Inexcusable and Unforgivable, a point which confuses many people.
Mary, Protestant and Catholic
In my wanderings on X I was directed towards an interesting document: Who Is My Mother? The Role and Status of the Mother of Jesus in the New Testament and in Roman Catholicism by one E. Svendsen. It's especially interesting for me since his first degree came from Tennessee Temple University/University of Tennessee at Knoxville. …
Revival Then, Revival Now: The Second Great Awakening and Megachurches
Making the Connection: Critics argue that megachurches use fog machines, loud music, and colored lights to create an experience that will make people feel emotionally and spiritually moved. Many argue that these emotional atmospheres are intended to make people feel emotionally connected with God and emphasize feelings of spirituality over issues of doctrine. Others accuse megachurches of attempting …

Liturgical Calendar UnPentecostal? Say It Isn’t So!
This morning I was regaled with a post from ourCOG (whose posts I have reviewed before) entitled "Strange Catholic Days in Pentecostalism." As is their habit, they've evidently cut and paste from other places, it's two pieces posted in one. To keep things simple I'll respond to the second. The post itself focuses on Ash …
