Everything else is expendable for the kingdom, and the King rules not only our own lives, but also the arts, science, economics, politics, education – every area of life 

Disastrously neglected truths about sanctification.

The evils of both culture and church today are as much epistemic as anything else: where do we find a reliable word of revelation?We’ve turned away from God‘s revelation to competing revelations, and have thereby turned to darkness, destruction, and damnation.

Politics is not neutral. Politics in the Bible is not neutral. And politics in the church should not — and in fact cannot — be neutral. .

The Christian Faith is built on a crusade — waged God’s way, by the power of the Spirit. 

We all know (or should know) about Christ’s sovereignty in his church, but its actual meaning should pierce our heart. 

Christians’ prayer and vision are often lackluster because they lack a grasp of the Lord in his present mode of victorious existence. 

This is the epistemic foundation of the Christian Faith, and there is no other. Trust the Bible with the heart of a child. 

A hard-hitting, whirlwind summary of the path of intellectual apostasy in the church and culture. 

Until we settle the absolute cosmic Lordship of Jesus Christ in our individual lives, families, churches, and all of society, we’ll be tinkering around the edges of the world‘s great problems. “Jesus Is Lord” is the church’s first and the Bible’s great foundational creed. 

From ReformCon25: Biblical Masculinity repudiates both Leftist egalitarianism and alt-right paganism, including “Reformed” paganism. Quit trying to be a man. Be God’s man. 

Recovering creational norms and returning to the Cross of Jesus Christ will solve almost any marriage problem.

The gospel is all about what God in Christ has done, is doing, and will do in restoring and enhancing everything that was lost in the Garden of Eden. The final gospel success is the final resurrection of man and the present heavens and earth. 

While liberals ordinarily overemphasize the “already” of the already/not yet, conservatives tend to overstress the “not yet.”A pox on both their houses. 

The Bible teaches that salvation is entirely by grace, and not by works, and equally that there can be no salvation without works. This is an apparent, not an actual, contradiction.

Elders must know their job description, and sound theology isn’t the half of it. 

God deals with nations as nations, God blesses nations that adhere to biblical law, and God judges nations that turn their back on God and his written word.

The most Christian political philosophy in the current philosophical Overton Window is classical liberalism. But Progressivism (Democratic Party) and the New Right (the Republican Party) are squeezing it out. 

“Our good God, our ever-flowing God, our God of Yes and Amen, has always been able to promise far more than we are able to believe. God loves to bury our finite faith under an avalanche of promises and gifts.”

We cannot grasp the Christian worldview as we should if we do not understand the covenant and the kingdom.

The Christian Faith is deeply anti-antinomian. This is a brief elaboration on the Bible’s teaching concerning God‘s law in creation, his law in Moses, and his law in the new covenant.

Every movement away from the Bible is a movement toward an alien, competing word, and that word always leads to darkness, chaos, and damnation.

The Christian worldview is founded the creational worldview. To confuse this sequence is to twist both Christianity and creation.

The United States is the most spectacularly valuable political experiment in world history – because it was founded on Christian principles.

Fundamentalism, modernism, scholasticism, and postmodernism are bad ways of interpreting the Bible.The canonical or covenantal or worldview-ish way is the only right way.

A brief, direct, easy-to-understand explanation of one of the most harmful ways of thinking in the modern church. 

A recognition of “the near impossibility of simple refutations” might lead to a mutual laying down of arms in the acrimonious sacrament wars of paedobaptists (and paedocommunionists) versus credobaptists (and credocommunionists).

If you’re discouraged and distraught over the surrounding depraved culture or persistent, personal difficulties, you might be helped by this bold, full-throated, biblical defense postmillenialism.

The Battle for Reality is even more pressing than The Battle for the Bible. 

No matter how dire our situation, Jesus Christ is our utterly impregnable hope, and to rely on anyone or anything else is an insecure confidence. 

We are saved by Christ and his redemptive work alone, but our salvation inevitably produces godly works. None who live after salvation will enjoy eternal life if they lack good works.  We are justified by a working faith. 

To know God’s calling in your life, immerse yourself in the manual of his cosmic operating system. 

What is a Christian worldview, and what is its primary competitor in the Western world today? 

The protology and eschatology of the Bible include promises of the advancement and victory of Christ‘s kingdom before the final, perfected eternal state. We must live as victorious people — because we are.

The Bible festers with God’s promises to his people, and living consistently in those promises means living in consistent hope and victory. 

Creation is the backdrop and prerequisite of our Lord’s redemptive work, and to bypass creation is eventually to overturn the gospel. 

The optimal time to trust Christ and serve God is childhood and youth, not middle and old age. God‘s preventive grace is greater than his recovering and grace, and the apex testimony of God‘s work in the world is children and young people serving him with unremitting zeal.

Salvation is much bigger than most Christians suppose. Unless we see salvation (as Paul does in Ephesians) in its personal, corporate, and cosmic dimensions, our view will be impoverished. 

To live in an atmosphere of prayers to live in constant expectation for God to do both small and mighty things. To live in this atmosphere of prayer is to live a transformed, victorious life.

The family is a part of the creational OS. The blinding assaults against it in postmodern culture (socially constructed sexuality, homosexuality, gender reassignment surgery, and so on) are assaults on reality itself. 

Widespread biblical law presupposes a Christian culture and society, and that culture and society will inevitably lead to biblical law. 

Satan attempts to replace God’s very good created world with his diabolical alt-world. The goal of aggressive Christianity is to destabilize, delegitimize, and decimate his world.

The biblical God is often consumed by zeal, and his holy jealousy fuels his zeal, which burns against the ungodly and rescues his people. 

To think correctly as a Christian you must first think correctly about creation. 

This talk to Christian high school students at the Worldview Leadership Academy is the simplest, most basic presentation I’ve ever given of the dominant, secular elite vision of our time. 

Behind the Marxism distinctive to our time is the towering shadow of Hegel and his dialectical view of reality. 

Want to be liberated from the intellectual tyranny of the present? Know the worldviews that created our postmodern world. 

The utopian revolutionaries are savaging every last residue of Christian culture, and the church’s double-decker Christianity has abetted the savagery. 

It’s not possible to properly grasp biblicalworldview or theology without grasping covenant and kingdom.
