This is a short paper I wrote on Christian Nationalism. The three main ideas are the Great Commission, the Law, and Democracy. The Great Commission has parallels in God's command to Adam to fill the earth and subdue it, and also God's command to Joshua to conquer Canaan. The Great Commission carries elements from the other commissions. The next section discusses the importance of God's law as the rule or the model to build society's laws, and that only believers should govern men. The last section discusses the wickedness of democracy as an extension of Satan's temptation to Adam and Eve to...

The Book of Philippians is one of the most quotable, stirring, and rousing segments of the New Testament. Yet when Paul the missionary and apostle wrote this manifesto while chained in Rome, did he merely intend for his readers to divvy it up into a handful of inspirational slogans? Or did he have a deeper purpose in mind for the church? Paul’s epistle to the Philippians sports many pivotal motifs—joy, suffering, humility, and encouragement. Underneath all these themes, Philippians is a book of mission.

Moses never wanted to be a leader. Jonah ran away from his mission's call. And when Marcia Moston's husband came home with a call to foreign missions, she was sure God had the wrong number. His call conflicted with her own dreams, demanded credentials she didn't have, and required courage she couldn't seem to find. She promised to follow where God led, but she never thought the road would lead to a Mayan village on a Guatemalan mountainside.

Challenged with some unexpected attacks of fear, regrets, and insecurities, my confidence took a downward spiral into a pit of self-doubt.

Billy Graham is the most well-known Christian in recent memory, and his impact on Christendom continues to be felt around the world. His ecumenical connections and the gospel he preached and promoted are the main reasons for revising and releasing this book. Lordship salvation is something he was most known for. The Catholic ‘plan of salvation,’ where one must ‘first turn from their sins in order to be saved,’ is another gospel that Paul condemns in the Book of Galatians. This ecumenical lordship salvation ‘gospel’ is something all true Bible believers should be concerned about ...
