It's a Lie

Tolerance is the favourite word of all things progressive.  We are supposed to support diversity in all forms whether we are talking of race, creed, sexual orientation or gender.  After all we live in a pluralistic society where multiple cultures, religions and morals co-exist.

It is a lie.  The progressives do not want tolerance.  They want a totalitarianism of thought.  Anyone who does not agree with the party line must be silenced or browbeaten into submission. 

This week Google fired an engineer who had the audacity to suggest that men and women are not the same - that there are biological differences between the genders.  As well, he accused the corporation of slanting its search results towards all things progressive.  For deviating from the google dogma, his livelihood was taken away.

This should shock no one.  The ruling party in the Canadian Parliament has refused to allow anyone who does not agree with abortion on demand to be democratically chosen by a riding association to run for the party.  The Democrats in the States are eyeing the very same rule for their candidates.  A baker in Seattle was fined $135,000 for refusing to make a $400 wedding cake for a gay couple. A Washington State florist lost her business over the same issue.

The progressives do not want tolerance.  They want to punish all who disagree with them - and the punishment must be so severe that others will think twice before they dare to disagree with the liberal groupthink.

Families' Fridays

From Focus on the Family 10 helpful tips for single parents Imagine this: you’re the sole parent for your children. You get them up, get them fed and send them to school. You do the housework, maybe you go to work yourself, you get home and you’re still the only adult there. There’s no one to relieve you. No one to pass the baton to while you take a shower or take a few minutes for yourself. You make dinner and gather the family around the table to eat. You play with them, read to them, give them baths, get them to bed and there’s no one there to sit with and process your day. There’s no one there to laugh with you or pray with you. Instead you keep working. You clean up the house again. You pack lunches for the next day. And you eventually crash into bed, knowing you’ll be doing the same thing tomorrow. For many, this is not an imagined scenario. When you parent alone – whether due to divorce, the loss of your spouse or having a spouse who works away from home for long periods of...

Death For a Believer

We picture death as coming to destroy; let us rather picture Christ as coming to save. We think of death as ending; let us rather think of life as beginning, and that more abundantly. We think of losing; let us think of gaining. We think of parting; let us think of meeting. We think of going away; let us think of arriving. And as the voice of death whispers,  "You must go from earth," Let us hear the voice of Christ saying, "You are but coming to me."   Norman Macleod

Let Me Introduce

It is almost a joke to imagine I am introducing John MacArthur Jr. to you.  In our circles of evangelicalism his is a well known name.  He has spoken at the national convention of our Fellowship of Evangelical Baptists on at least three different occasions.  However, the last of these was almost twenty years ago.  I believe that is because we have changed as a Fellowship and have strayed from the message that Dr. MacArthur preaches.  Dr. MacArthur has served his congregation since 1969.  That, in itself, should commend this man's message to us. As a pastor, I appreciate his commitment to the expository preaching of the Bible.  He has published an entire New Testament commentary set based upon his faithful preaching of the text.  I have never met this man personally, but I have appreciated him laying down a faithful path which younger men, like myself, have been able to follow. Grace to You
