What is Religious Paganism? This audio series was recorded in 1998. Join us over the next few weeks as Dr. Peter Jones explores a revival of paganism in American culture. Dr. Jones will tackle various points of paganism, the historical perspective of paganism and trace the history of how Christian America “switched religions.”
A House Divided
A House Divided Respected Jewish commentator Dennis Prager has just made a stunningly bellicose judgment[1]about American culture: America is currently fighting its second Civil War…There will be unity only when the left vanquishes the right or the right vanquishes the left. Using the First Civil War analogy, American unity was achieved only after the South was […]
Slouching To Ancient Rome
I’ve just finished reading a description of how Christians were treated in ancient Rome. It was a reality check. It made me think again[1] about Revoice’s well-meaning empathy to the gay culture. A touch of historical realism is in order. This aspect of the Revoice phenomenon must be thoughtfully examined. I believe it can only […]
Satan’s Civil Rights
For the first time, a Satanist group has official permission to meet in a public school at the end of the school day. An After School Satan Club (ASSC) meeting was held at Sacramento Elementary School in Portland, Oregon on November 16th, 2016. The previous day, at Parkrose Middle School (also in Portland), the Satanic […]
Will the LGBT Movement Self-Destruct?
REVIEW OF Rachel Lu, “The LGBT Movement Will Self-Destruct,” The Federalist (May 31, 2016) http://thefederalist.com/2016/05/31/the-lgbt-movement-will-self-destruct/ Rachel Lu begins her controversial thesis by describing the innocuous rise and fall of “inventive spelling,” which proposed liberating options like “girl,” “gurl” and “grrrrl.” This is hardly reason to think that the supremacy of pan-sexuality will disappear as speedily.

Law & Public Policy: NOT a Gospel Issue?!
by truthXchange | September 10, 2020Senior Fellow Post by Dr. Jeffery J Ventrella In today’s 24-hour news cycle, political banter is virtually unavoidable and a lot of what we hear is distasteful. Consider a few recent examples: Robert De Niro spewing crude language toward POTUS at the Tony Awards[1] A race-baiting often-politico clergyman claiming he’s only “anti-termite” not anti-Semitic[2] Popular TV […]
The Spirituality of Politics
by Dr. Peter Jones | August 24, 2020As we approach the 2020 presidential elections, Christians should think deeply about their vote. Clearly, no current political party has any right to lay claim to being the G.O.P, “God’s Own Party.” Traditionally, believers (myself included) have sought to avoid taking a public political stance in order both to respect the political choices of fellow believers […]
Cultural Warts or Faithful Servants
by Dr. Peter Jones | August 20, 2020According to recent polls, most young people “have graded Christianity, and so far, the grades aren’t looking good.” Young believers do not want the name “Christian” because of “the baggage that accompanies the label.” We all have baggage, but there is something very fishy going on here. Why is the most ethical, humane movement in […]
