Smithsonian Magazine Defines a Woman

Gary discusses several recent new stories surrounding sex, gender, and ideology. The Left is getting downright insane in their defense of their political beliefs regarding these topics. So many different groups of people, including the Supreme Court, are finally speaking rationally when this Leftist irrationality is being propagated.

Is Preterism an Impossibility?

Gary responds to several comments from Pastor John MacArthur and Dr. Michael Brown who are pushing back against the preterist interpretation of Bible prophecy. Many Christians are being told that the world getting "worse and worse" is this is what is supposed to happen in the "end times." This interpretation tends to cause Christians to think that nothing can or even should be done.

Everyone's a Biblical Scholar

Gary discusses several recent celebrities' pronouncements of "biblical truth" and how inconsistent they are with the actual biblical text. Just because someone has a platform does not make them authoritative or accurate. While everyone has an agenda and may try to justify that agenda with carefully selected Bible verses (or paraphrases of verses), Christians must be more careful to read the Bible in context and in light of its own complete story.

Our Legacy (Part Two)

The conclusion of a lecture given at a Worldview Conference a few years ago where Gary discusses legacy and responsibility. Not all of us are gifted in the same ways, but God has a purpose for every member of His church. Some are hands; some are feet; and some are neither of those. Our talents and skills should be used to expand God's Kingdom, but this can't happen until people are willing to step out of their comfort zones in faith.

Taking It to the Next Generation

Gary discusses his trip to Mexico last week where he gave five talks about eschatology and Bible interpretation. The escapism and pessimism prevalent in the majority of theology in Mexico is largely due to the influence of missionaries from North America. The reception Gary received from these 50-60 pastors is evident of the massive need of "re-education" on eschatological issues to combat the improper interpretations of the future in other countries.

Heretics and False Teachers

In this concluding part of his interview with Pastor Richard Henry, Gary further discusses the recent heresy controversy. Calling people and their views "heretical" happens far too often among Christians. Doctrines that deny the divinity and the humanity of Christ are indeed heretical (as 1 John makes clear), but differences over interpretations of the "end times" or what happens after death are not in the same category.

Being Honest with the Text

Gary continues his interview with Pastor Richard Henry. In this second part, he summarizes some of the controversy he was involved in a few months ago. All Christians are preterists to some degree in that prophecies spoken in the historical past have been fulfilled. Modern scholars and writers disagree over certain specifics of Bible prophecy, and even to the timing of certain events, i.e. past or future to us. But these timing disagreements should not be used to determine orthodoxy.

Christians Should be Building

In this first part of a recent interview with Pastor Richard Henry, Gary critiques the modern (and past) response of the church and Christians to cultural decay and immorality. Eschatology and social action are closely tied together and the paralysis of evangelicals is usually preceded by the claim that things getting worse and worse is merely a "sign of the end times." Things are getting bad because Christians aren't involved and active in making things better.

How Now Do We Evaluate Information?

Gary discusses a recent sermon written and "preached" at a worship service in Germany by ChatGPT. When AI is delivering all the information, how will we possibly determine what's accurate or true? AI can synthesize information all day long, but it cannot distinguish truth from falsehood; it simply takes the various inputs and gives an output based on its programming. Spoiler alert: the programming comes from humans.
