In Search of Historical Absolutes — Steve Farrell
by Steve Farrell I believe in absolutes, religious absolutes, moral absolutes, scientific absolutes (that is, useful bits and pieces of still hidden, more fundamental, scientific absolutes), political absolutes, and historical absolutes. But I've also learned through 33 years of research that the more I know, the less I know. That is not to [...]
Define Joy–T.F. Stern
By: T. F. Stern A few meandering thoughts as Spring transforms the world around me. I saw a couple of Robins this week, Dogwood bursting forth in wild bloom as are the Redbud trees; won’t be long before it will be safe to put our tomato plants outside. I found myself smiling for no apparent reason, an expression of joy. A scripture from [...]
The Dignity of Man — Nathanael Emmons
Founding Era Political Sermons, 1787, Nathanael Emmons Shew thyself a Man. 1 Kings 2.2 David closed the scene of life, with that propriety of conduct, and that composure of mind, which at once displayed the beauty of religion, and the dignity of human nature. When the time of his departure drew nigh, he had nothing to do to [...]
To False God’s We Give Reverence, But Not to the True God? — Samuel McClintock
Founding Era Political Sermons, 1784, Samuel McClintock The being and providence of God are the great principles of religion, which as they are conformable to the light of nature and reason, have obtained the general consent of mankind in all ages. It is not more evident from the visible works of creation that there is a God, who made [...]
2010 and the Right to Bear Arms — T.F. Stern
by T. Fraser Stern Lee Ross wrote for Foxnews, that the Supreme Court will make a ruling on whether or not individual liberties afforded under the Heller Decision, the right to keep and bear arms, a ruling which up until now many believe only covered citizens living in Washington D.C. or other federal protectorates, was and is intended to [...]
Hoping Against Hope — Dieter F. Uchtdorf
A Way of Life, Dieter F. Uchtdorf Toward the end of World War II, my father was drafted into the German army and sent to the western front, leaving my mother alone to care for our family. Though I was only three years old, I can still remember this time of fear and hunger. We lived in Czechoslovakia, and with every passing day, the war came [...]
Why Many American Christians Really are Un-Christian — Selwyn Duke
By Selwyn Duke In this age of media insolvency and newsroom job cuts, I sometimes think that restaurant reviewers are doubling as religion writers. After all, both today seem to treat their subjects as matters of taste. In fact, I expect to soon open a modern newspaper’s religion page and read something akin to the following: The steeple [...]
Arming Against Pride — Stephen Case
Founding Era Political Sermons, 1783, Stephen Case High seats are always uneasy, and crowns themselves are always stuffed with thorns, which made one say of his crown O crown! More noble than happy! May the spirit of God, the grace of God, the power of God, the presence of God, arm you against all other sins, evils, snares, and [...]
Keeping the Spirit in Perilous Times — Dallin H. Oaks
A Way of Life, Dallin H. Oaks We live in the perilous times prophesied by the Apostle Paul (see 2 Timothy 3:1). Those who try to walk the straight and narrow path see inviting detours on every hand. We can be distracted, degraded, downhearted, or depressed. How can we have the Spirit of the Lord to guide our choices and keep us on the [...]
Over-Ruling Providence of God — Henry Cumings
Founding Era Political Sermons, 1781, Henry Cumings Though God, (for wise reasons, best known to himself) has permitted sin to enter into the world; yet, we may be sure, he will not suffer the purposes of his goodness to be frustrated by it; but will, in some way or other, over-rule this worst of evils, for good; and make sinners [...]
