Bible verse of the dayRend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God for he is gracious and compassionate slow to anger and abounding in love and he relents from sending calamity.Joel 2:13DailyVerses.net PM confirms church worship unaffected by new COVID restrictions Sep 9, 2020 by Chris Sugden The Christian Institute reports that Churches can still open for worship as long as social distancing procedures are followed, the Prime Minister has confirmed. In his press conference this afternoon, Boris Johnson said “COVID secure venues like places of worship, gyms, restaurants and hospitality venues can still hold more than six people in total.” The new ‘rule of six’ in no way affects the total number that a church may hold, but social distancing restrictions remain in... read more It’s time to derail the Pride train Sep 9, 2020 by Jill by Andrew Doyle, spiked: The LGBT community is now the LGBTQQIP2SAA movement. It’s getting ridiculous. Six or seven years ago I wrote a stand-up comedy routine about the ever-expanding initialism that went from LGB to LGBT to LGBTQI, and so on. The routine centred on the concept of what might happen should the string of letters continue to grow until the entire alphabet was featured. By the end of 2016 the joke had dated, not because identity politics was no longer topical – far from it – but... read more Dictionary.com aims to ‘help eliminate heterosexual bias in language’ with ‘biggest update ever’ Sep 9, 2020 by Jill By Michael Brown, LifeSite: Speaking of Orwell’s 1984, a blog post noted that, “By controlling the language, Big Brother controls the way that the people think. With a limited vocabulary, the people are limited in how much they can think, as well as, what they think about.” That’s why we should be concerned with Dictionary.com’s “biggest update ever.” Yes, in addition to the many new words added “are the deeper revisions that document what drives us here at Dictionary.com: the ways language is... read more Church Society launches new journal Sep 9, 2020 by Andrew Symes By Ros Clarke, Church Society blog: The Global Anglican is the new name for Church Society s quarterly theological journal…The Global Anglican is a theological journal committed to publishing international scholarship that speaks to the pastoral needs of the contemporary church. The journal will continue in the long tradition of The Churchman, as it was known when it was established in 1879, and more recently as Churchman. The launch issue of The Global Anglican demonstrates the... read more Asia Bibi pleads with Pakistani government to help kidnapped Christian girls Sep 9, 2020 by Andrew Symes From Christian Today: The Pakistani Government is being urged to help Christian girls abducted, raped and forced to marry their captors. Asia Bibi, the Christian woman who spent nearly a decade on death row for blasphemy, is calling on the country s Prime Minister Imran Khan to take action following the high profile kidnappings of Huma Younus and Maira Shahbaz, both 14. I know that these girls are being persecuted and I appeal to the Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, please... read more The Third Great African Rescue Sep 9, 2020 by Andrew Symes By Phil Ashey, American Anglican Council: During the 5th Century Christianity was wracked by a theological crisis. A monk from Britain named Pelagius was teaching that original sin did not taint human nature and that humans have the free will to achieve human perfection without divine grace. Pelagius reasoned that God could not command believers to do the impossible, and therefore it must be possible to satisfy all divine commandments. He also taught that it was unjust to punish one person for... read more Gafcon Chairman’s September Letter Sep 9, 2020 by Andrew Symes By Foley Beach, Gafcon: […] It seems trite and overused to say we are living in ‘unprecedented times.’  But the reality is that we are.  These times are still ‘unprecedented.’  But they are not unique.  The history of the Church is full of the changes and chances of life and the followers of Jesus continued on with His ministry and His message.  So, in the midst of these times, we press on towards Christ and His purposes for us.  We go forward.  Always Forward.  Everywhere Forward! In 2008, as... read more The disembodied brain of Christ Sep 9, 2020 by Andrew Symes By Rod Dreher, The American Conservative: [ ] I really, really hope that Southern Baptists don’t accept online church as normative. It will deform discipleship, no matter how high-quality the information transmitted from pastors over the Internet connection is. It’s a big mistake to think of one’s church life as only receiving information about Jesus Christ and the Bible, and arranging your own thoughts and emotional reactions to it. Like I said, I was never Evangelical, but I pretty... read more Ingratitude, Mob Violence, and Providence Sep 8, 2020 by Jill by R J Snell, Public Discourse: Our culture’s deep ingratitude is the long, nihilistic outworking of the logic of modern thought itself. When human experience is reduced to only will and power struggle, there no room for gratefulness. Those of us who have not renounced cosmic order and the providence that brings that order to fulfillment, by contrast, know that all things willed or permitted by God work for good. Thus we should be grateful—profoundly grateful—for everything. A friend recently... read more This website uses cookies to improve your experience.
