(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) OTTAWA, August 17, 2015 - A 26-year-old Mennonite missionary was violently stabbed in the back on Friday by a pro- LGBTQ woman who became aggressive after he shared with her his Christian beliefs regarding homosexuality. “The confrontation was about the idea of homosexuality…if that’s OK, if that’s acceptable, and whether God loves somebody who is in that state. And we assured her that he does,” said Eric Brubacher, a member of the Mennonite community who was present during the attack, to CTV. The unnamed victim was rushed to the hospital where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries and then released. The attacker fled the scene of the crime. The stabbing occurred in the Byward Market area three days prior to the opening of Ottawa ’s “ Pride Week ” where homosexuality is celebrated and promoted ope

It's almost become a part of the weekly news cycle: American citizens publicly tarred and feathered for professing their sincerely held religious beliefs. Just this month, we watched a family-owned pizzeria close its doors after its owners received hate mail and death threats from around the country. Their offense? Giving the wrong answer to a question about whether they'd cater a gay wedding. Keep in mind that the restaurant had never actually turned down a gay customer. They were hammered for holding the wrong beliefs about a hypothetical scenario! Major corporations are getting into the bullying act, as well. At least two state governments have now backed down or modified religious freedom legislation in response to pressure from companies like Walmart and Salesforce. Keep that in mind next time you think about shopping at Walmart. And this culture-wide search-and-destroy mission is only accelerating. As Princeton's Robby George  writes in First Things , acti

April 14, 2015 ( Crisis Magazine ) - The controversy about the Indiana religious liberty  statute is a textbook example of the increasing timidity of leading Republican politicians in the face of the homosexualist movement. It is an exposè of how they just can’t get past the politics of the moment—which they often poorly analyze—to see the civilizational questions that confront us in these times. Governor Mike Pence of Indiana quickly stepped back after supporting and signing the law as soon as the crescendo of criticism from the homosexualists and their media allies began and concerns about hurting the Indianapolis tourist trade were raised. After consulting with homosexualist organizations, he pushed through the state legislature a “clarification” of the law that supposedly would insure that it wouldn’t be used to “discriminate” against homosexuals. By doing that, the law was essentially gutted and the homosexualist organizations scored a major victory by securing specific

Hate is disobedience to God . "Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him" ( I John 3:15). To rage against, physically or verbally abuse , belittle, or diminish the humanity of homosexuals is hateful. To disagree is not hateful. To stand for truth is not hateful. To make arguments about human sexuality and marriage from  sociological and demographic data  is not hateful. To  object to the legal redefinition of marriage  is not hateful. To  oppose efforts to redefine marriage in law  is not hateful. To believe in  the uniqueness of male-female complementarity  is not hateful. To herald  the Bible's teaching that sexual intimacy is reserved for the covenant of one-man, one-woman marriage  is not hateful. To assert that any form of sexual intimacy outside of heterosexual, monogamous marriage is sinful is not hateful. To affirm the Bible's teaching that whatever one's sins (

However, it has recently been written onto my heart that I might be called to marriage—with a woman. What? Let me explain… Not About Therapy This has nothing to do with therapy with the objective to change from “gay” to “straight.” I’ve never done that, and I have found peace in knowing that the Church is not trying to get me to pursue that. This has, however, come to be after many years of continuously striving to say “ Yes ” to God , and “Yes” to growing in virtue (in particular, the virtue of chastity, which I struggled with for most of my life). I came to desire a chaste heart because I desired holiness, and I desired holiness because I desired to unite my heart with the heart of Jesus Christ . This desire came about because I first experienced the love of Christ through  someone like   you ; someone who simply loved me where I was at in my

Until recently I had not heard of the National Federation of State High School Associations , or NFHS. This Indianapolis -based organization has, since 1920, developed and  published  playing rules for high-school sports in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Like so many other national organizations charged with establishing curricula, policies and practices for primary and secondary education (consider the NEA), the NFHS has become completely overrun by radical leftists and sexual extremists. It has placed political correctness and the adult “LGBT” political agenda above the welfare and safety of the boys and girls it purports to serve. This week, I received an ema

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Consider some of these important Gay events that happened this past year: There is no denying it: 2014 was the year the scale tipped, and same-sex “marriage” literally swept across the United States as  judge after judge in state after state  trampled on the clear will of the people, unilaterally striking down voter-approved traditional marriage amendments.  Meanwhile, those who believe in traditional marriage are increasingly being told that they are “bigots” who have no right to their beliefs. Just think of the Benham brothers,  who were fired from their HGTV show  because of their Christian views; or the Duggars,  who were recently the subject of a ferocious media attack , demanding that their show on TLC be cancelled

The next several years are going to be messy for Christians. We already know that some who claim to be within our fold will continue to challenge the historic, orthodox teaching about sexuality, marriage, and the essence of what it means to be made in the image of God. But even those of us who agree that marriage is what the church has always thought it was, will disagree on how best to move forward in a culture hell-bent on denying it. Case in point: Over at First Things , a premier publication of Christian thought, Ephraim Radner and Christopher Seitz have offered what they refer to as “ The Marriage Pledge,”  calling clergy of all stripes to no longer sign government documents of civil marriage. To be a “clear witness,” they have decided they “will no longer serve as agents of the state in marriage” because to do so would be to “implicate the Church in a false definition of marriage.” This is an idea that has been kicked around for some time.  Past First Things  articles hav
