A Biblical Philosophy of Truth with Contemporary Applications begins with an exegetical and a theological examination of the subject of truth. This research is applied to both truth as an attribute of God and to God’s Word being truth. Untruth is examined in human depravity, in Satan and his demons, and in spiritual warfare. Various philosophical perversions of truth are discussed, e.g., modernist, postmodernist, and existentialist. The relationship between truth and liberty in a culture is examined, followed by a Biblical survey of pervasive untruth in times of national apostasy. Then these principles are applied, making applications to expose the rejection of truth in contemporary Amer ...

After explaining the difference between rationality and rationalism, the book examines the theme of rationality and logic with regard to three foundational areas: God’s thinking, God’s Word, and man as the image of God. In this endeavor various questions are answered: Does God think logically or is God’s thinking trans-rational? How does the logical law of non-contradiction relate to the Bible? Is there a necessary connection between a person’s ethics and correct reasoning? The next section investigates the realms of philosophy, world religions, and theology. Questions include: Which philosophies and religions promote irrationality? and What are some examples of bad theology promoting ...

Biblical Patriarchy: Male Headship in Family, Church and State offers an in-depth Biblical analysis of male headship in culture. The book begins with an introduction to feminism in America, including its diversity and the theological climate fostering it. The hermeneutics of evangelical feminists are examined. It then proceeds to the origin and definition of male headship, focusing on creation. Biblical Patriarchy is one of the few books discussing the Biblical fact that in Genesis church and state were part of the family. From there male headship in the family is examined, noting Biblical definitions of different family relationships and examining the meaning of the term father. In expl ...

Education can only be understood from the perspective of worldviews. God’s Mandate for Biblical Education briefly examines the components of worldviews (particularly epistemology), and then presents the Biblical worldview of education. Nine arguments (including the absolute lordship of Jesus Christ and covenant faithfulness) are powerfully presented, demonstrating that Biblically-consistent, comprehensive, Christian education is Biblically-mandated for all subjects of study, for all Christian children. This is followed by six necessary components of Christian education, i.e., Biblically directed: teachers, content, goals, standard, method, and motivations. Foundational presuppositions fo ...

Reading God’s Royal Law: Foundation of Moral Order will make you question what you really knew about God’s law. Most Christians unthinkingly parrot a Biblical phrase like, “You are not under law but under grace,” without ever considering what the definition of the word “law” is in this context. That is why God’s Royal Law begins by examining the eight different lexical definitions of the word “law” in the New Testament. Subsequently, several crucial questions are clearly and concisely answered from Scripture. Is God’s law inherently opposed to grace, faith, love, and the Spirit? What different purposes does God’s law serve? What three things was God’s law never designed to do? Are the tr ...

The Foundation and Pillars of the Biblical Worldview offers an in-depth analysis of the Biblical worldview. The first section explains worldviews, emphasizing epistemology, demonstrating that if one does not begin with God’s Word, he cannot justify any knowledge about anything. The second section lays the foundation for the Biblical worldview: The Bible is the standard of truth. Here the doctrines of revelation (including the insufficiency of general revelation), inspiration & inerrancy of Scripture, and 7 properties of Scripture are analyzed. The largest section explains the 8 pillars/key doctrines that uphold a Biblical worldview. Christians lacking any of these pillars do not have the ...

Why do the number of taxes and the taxation rates continue to escalate throughout the Western world? Should the average American toil from January 1st to August 12th just to pay all costs imposed by federal, state, and local governments? What impact does Christianity make in the realm of taxation? Does the church have any infallible “thus says the Lord” from Scripture to apply to taxation? Toward a Theology of Taxation pioneers the application of God’s infallible and sufficient Word to the area of taxation. Many areas are explored: What types of taxes are mentioned in Scripture? Does God disapprove of some types of tax? What tax did God institute in Old Testament Israel? What does the p ...

A fresh analysis of Biblical teaching on civil resistance, Romans 13, and quarantine—utilizing the finest exegetical tools. Thirteen categorical scenarios are presented that allow civil disobedience. Numerous Biblical examples of God-endorsed civil disobedience are cited. Romans 13 is examined to determine the extent of obedience to civil magistrates that God requires. The third section analyzes Lev. 13–14, Num. 5:1–4 and 31:19–20 to determine their applicability to contemporary medical quarantines imposed by civil governments. The introduction answers the objection, politics is not a gospel issue. An appendix includes sample church guidelines regarding sicknesses/pandemics. One of the u ...
