In a world increasingly torn between conflicting ideologies and religious claims, one question stands out as paramount: which worldview truly explains reality? Not merely in isolated doctrines or moral teachings, but in the grand scope of history—origin, meaning, morality, and destiny. For the Christian, the answer lies in the majestic sweep of redemptive history, a…
Book Review: Woke Antisemitism by David Bernstein
Antisemitism, often dubbed “the world’s oldest hatred,” has shown a terrifying ability to adapt to new cultural and political climates. Whether through medieval church decrees, 20th-century fascism, or radical Islamist rhetoric, antisemitism finds expression in whichever language the culture speaks. In the 21st century, particularly in elite Western institutions and academic circles, that language is…
Israel, the Church, and the Future – Covenant Theology, Fulfillment, and the Union with Christ
One of the more sensitive and often misunderstood theological questions among evangelicals concerns the role of ethnic Israel in God’s plan—past, present, and future. Does Israel remain special in God’s eyes? Will there be a mass conversion of Jews before the return of Jesus Christ? What distinguishes covenant theology, 1689 Federalism, and dispensationalism on this…
Israel – the Land and the People
The land of Israel is arguably the most contested strip of earth in human history. From the days of Abraham to the modern era, this narrow land bridge between continents has been at the center of divine promises, prophetic fulfillments, and fierce geopolitical disputes. Yet beneath the political and military turmoil lies a theological reality…
Anti-Semitism – The War Against the Jews
The story of the Jewish people begins not in Europe or Russia, but in the dusty hills of Canaan—today’s Israel and Palestinian territories—where a man named Abram was called by the Lord to leave Ur and follow Him to a promised land. God’s covenant with Abraham (Genesis 12, 15, and 17) forms the backbone of…
Francis Schaeffer Encounters a Young Jewish student
Francis Schaeffer (1912–1984) was a Presbyterian pastor, theologian, and Christian philosopher whose influence shaped a generation of believers to think deeply about faith, culture, and truth. With his distinctive goatee, knickers, and thoughtful gaze, Schaeffer became a prophetic voice to a church drifting toward superficiality and cultural irrelevance. He founded L’Abri (“The Shelter”) in the…
Biblical Christianity vs. Judaism – a Worldview Comparison
Judaism is one of the world’s oldest monotheistic religions, tracing its origins back over 3,000 years to the patriarch Abraham, who is considered its founder. God’s covenant with Abraham (Genesis 12:1–3) laid the groundwork for a chosen people through whom the Messiah would eventually come. Key figures in the development of Judaism include Moses, who…
Wokeness, Islam, anti-Semitism and the Israel-Gaza war
It surprised me that Cultural Marxists (the woke) allied with pro-Gaza Muslims following the massacre of Israelis on October 7, 2023. The anti-Semitic nature of Cultural Marxism evaded my worldview radar. I discovered there is a deep-seated anti-Semitism within the Cultural Marxist community. Their anti-Semitism manifested itself through anti-Semitic activism on American campuses. Harassment of…
