DO CHROMOSOME VARIATIONS CREATE NEW SEXES? Imagine a child born with Klinefelter syndrome—XXY chromosomes instead of the typical XY. Does this “prove” science has discovered a third sex? In a culture aggressively pushing gender fluidity, intersex and chromosome variations are weaponised against biblical truth. They’re even held up as evidence that male and female are…
Picture a leafcutter ant navigating the rainforest floor in pitch darkness, carrying a leaf fragment 50 times its body weight. No headlamp. No vision. Many ant species are completely blind or nearly so, yet they execute complex tasks with precision that would challenge any sighted creature. Their success poses a devastating question for Darwinian evolution:…
When Jesus debated the Pharisees, He constantly appealed to Scripture. “Have you not read?” He asked repeatedly (Matthew 12:3, 5; 19:4). The question assumes something crucial: His opponents knew exactly which books counted as God’s Word. But how? The Catholic Church didn’t define the canon—the official list of biblical books—until the Council of Trent in…
Death is the one appointment no one can cancel. It appears on every human calendar, yet most of us live as if we have unlimited time to prepare for it. Our culture treats conversations about death as morbid, uncomfortable, even taboo—something to be avoided until absolutely necessary. But what if preparing for death is the…
THE SPROUL SOUNDBITE THAT WON’T LET YOU GO “If you deny limited atonement, you’re not a 4-point Calvinist—you’re an Arminian.” RC Sproul didn’t mince words, and that statement still rattles cages in Reformed circles. Was he being provocative? Uncharitable? Or was he simply following the logic of Scripture to its inevitable conclusion? Among the Reformed…
“Free will is an illusion,” declares neuroscientist Sam Harris. Scanning equipment seem to reveal our brains make decisions before we’re consciously aware of them. The conclusion seems inescapable: We’re not really choosing anything—our neurons are. For Christians who believe we bear God’s image as moral agents, the claim strikes at the heart of everything. If…
Imagine a prisoner who loves his chains—that’s the human will apart from grace. ‘Bondage of the will” is the biblical doctrine that sin has so corrupted every faculty of man that, left to himself, he cannot and will not choose God. This teaching strikes at the heart of our self-sufficiency and pride, yet it magnifies…
What happens when one spouse comes to faith in Christ and the other doesn’t? Should believing partners leave to protect their newfound status? Or does staying somehow compromise their spiritual purity? These questions tormented the early Corinthian church. And Paul’s answer in 1 Corinthians 7:14 has puzzled readers ever since: “For the unbelieving husband is…
What do we do when governments demand something that makes our conscience uneasy? Perhaps it’s a law that seems unjust, a mandate that feels like overreach, or a policy that contradicts biblical values. Do we comply? Resist? Protest respectfully or disobey outright? In our polarised moment, Christians are more confused than ever about our relationship…
How do we know the Bible is really God’s Word? It’s a question that keeps seminarians up at night and sends seekers down rabbit holes of church history. Press the issue, and we discover most answers fall into one of two camps. The Roman Catholic says, “Trust the Church—she gave you the Bible.” The liberal…
