April 19, 2019
A pastor of a Bible Presbyterian Church is booted after calling homosexuality a sin and inviting a little persecution. Are the goats outnumbering the sheep these days? Meanwhile, Australia’s #4 Rugby player is kicked out of the league for calling sinners to repentance. Here are several examples of courage in a homosexualized, compromised, wimpified, faithless age. Here are some refreshing stories, including rugby star, Israel Folau’s confession: “I love playing footy. . . But my faith in Jesus Christ is what comes first.”

Nortre-Dame Cathedral burns in a spectacular fire just a few days before the celebration of Easter. The symbolism is inescapable. The European faith began to die about the time the cathedral’s foundations were laid. We provide the history of the dissolution of the faith in France, beginning in the 1200s and coming to fruition at the St. Bartholomew’s Day’s massacre. We also discuss the confusion concerning government jurisdictions that seem to be prevalent in evangelicalism today.

Ohio has made some strides in the pro-life fight. Segments of the pro-life movement are making progress, and how is this happening? We interview Mark Harrington on the strategy that’s working. One of the most impactful things you can do for a young person raised in a Christian home is to put them on the front lines of the battle for life. We show you how to do it on this edition of Generations.

We revisit the Gen 2 survey on church trends with the homeschooled millennials. The Evangelicals, the Baptists, and the Pentecostals are losing homeschooled graduate kids, and the Catholics, the Orthodox, the Episcopalians and the Atheists are gaining some ground with these kids. What is the attraction to the “smells and bells?”

A film director of the leading children’s film in the world right now explains how he is normalizing dragons, inclusivism, and homosexuality, and that sort of thing. Do we normalize dragons? Do we train dragons or do we kill them? Psalm 144 calls us to fight the world and seek the covenant blessings of faithful children, polished cornerstones, and fruitful plants.

Is the final judgment coming? The statistics seem to bear it out. Since 1960, the world has come under severe judgment. According to many of the biblical descriptions of judgment, most of the world has fallen sharply into almost all of these conditions. We look at debt. . . birth implosions. . . females leading states. . . and homosexuality. Also, the state of the church in America is not much better. The top best selling Christian books ten years ago were written mostly by men. Now, they are ALL written by women evangelical leaders. We provide some guidance from 2 Peter 2 and Psalm as to the mindset Christians need at this critical hour.

The Christian colleges are quickly jettisoning creation and biblical sexual ethics as “essentials” to the faith. Can we abandon God’s law and creation just as long as we hold on to some weak conception of justification by faith alone. About 7% of Christian colleges are holding strong on creation. What happens to the faith when the epistemological authority of God and the ethical authority of God is removed?

Has the pro-life movement been hampered by a lack of principle. . .an unwillingness to just say “No” to killing babies? We descend into sin incrementally, but must repentance be likewise incremental? We discuss the importance of a heart commitment to principle, and a rejection of halfway measures when it comes to something as wicked as killing babies. But, must the church first repent of using abortifacient birth control pills before we go after the heathen and their affinity to infanticide?

The 19th century produced the wrong kind of piety, that worked hard for the elimination of the death penalty and the outlawing of alcohol. The civil magistrate today maintains about a 0.1% obedience ratio to God’s law, and that’s down from about 0.6% in 1999, when it comes to dealing with the murderer. God has commanded us to do justly, to love mercy, and walk humbly before our God. What would it look like if we took 1 for 3 or 2 for 3, but refused to live according to all three?

Bookstores are clogged with thousands of self-help books — the first problem of which is what we cannot help ourselves. God must help us. Kevin Swanson briefly discusses the problems with the certain pentecostalist perspectives relating to signs and miracles, prayer, and the sovereignty of man. Then we look at some of the most commonly used self-help, success books on the market. We find that they tend to tout the wrong worldview, setting man’s sovereign will against the sovereignty of God. Then faith is placed more in self than in God. When both goal and motive is wrong, can we trust the method will be the right one?

The use of Ritalin has increased 89% in just the last four years, and now 20% of boys are diagnosed with ADHD. Dutch researchers have finally done a long-term effects study on the use of Ritalin. . . not good. What does God want of boys? Is it appropriate to nail every six-year-old boy to a chair for six hours a day? We outline the importance of biblical discipline, trusting God for His wisdom, and considering the spiritual element. We also contrast man’s standards for behavior with God’s standards.
