The apostle Paul described the universal condition of humanity in bleak terms. Theologians call this fallen state, apart from Christ, "total depravity." Read more: https://t.co/e4rfkTcOhu
The Bible talks about God’s grace in two distinct ways. The first is what theologians call special grace, and the other is common grace. Let’s examine each. https://t.co/e4rfkTcOhu
"The Bible does not endorse a specific monetary system. But it does contain principles for sound money, applicable to all systems. Our own system falls woefully short." Read more: https://t.co/D49LoAc2X4
In recent years, Americans received a crash course in the importance of sound money. But biblical principles can always guide us, even on monetary policy. https://t.co/D49LoAc2X4
I’m honored to share that I will be co-hosting the National Day of Prayer broadcast this year in Washington, DC. I invite you to join me on May 7 at 8 p.m. ET as believers from across our nation and around the world come together in prayer and worship.
This year’s theme calls us to Glorify God Among the Nations, Seeking Him in All Generations. What an essential reminder for such a time as this, that our hope is not in earthly things, but in the Lord who reigns over every nation and every generation.
During this 90-minute gathering, we will hear prayers from Christian leaders across every area of influence and a clear Gospel message from Will Graham, calling many to place their faith in Jesus Christ.
Let us be a people who seek the Lord faithfully and intercede boldly for our neighbors and our nation. Join me in lifting up our country, asking God to move in power, and trusting Him to fill us with hope, joy, and peace as we believe.
Mark your calendar for May 7 and join us in prayer.

"Because God is largely ignored in our present culture, much of the social justice agenda is characterized by self-righteousness, accusation, and condemnation. The result is division rather than healing." Read more: https://t.co/RLY4zVo1lA
Our culture today is plagued by unresolved guilt about many things. Forgiveness rooted in the gospel is the only antidote that leads to real freedom. https://t.co/RLY4zVo1lA
"Covenants and constitutions do not write themselves. They require a people formed by something deeper than civic duty, and here is where most accounts get the Puritans wrong." Read more from @virgilwalker: https://t.co/WHpMxQjyeF
The Puritans applied theology to government, education, law, work, and family, and the United States is still living on borrowed capital from that vision. @virgilwalker shares more: https://t.co/WHpMxQjyeF
So excited to see this article published on the Institute for Faith and Culture blog. This is the 500th article published or posted out of the 400 I have written.
Joseph "not only highlighted his grasp of grace and forgiveness, but more importantly, it showed his deep understanding of God’s ultimate purposes for allowing these things to happen." Read more more from @RussellGehrlein: https://t.co/PYzWKgocQN
Many of us know the pain of being unexpectedly released from a job. @RussellGehrlein shares that God can use these tough moments to develop us and fulfill his ultimate plan for our lives. https://t.co/PYzWKgocQN
Jesus is neither a Republican nor a Democrat, yet he taught about morality, the state, and the church, which a believer should factor into his political, social, and cultural thinking and practice. https://t.co/Bv53a66DvK
Scripture speaks about limited government and its purpose, role, and authority. Here is an overview of this topic by Dr. @jpmoreland: https://t.co/Bv53a66DvK
“The fact that our children face challenges and pressures is not in dispute. Their response is not assured or given. However, we can do much to prepare them—church, family, and school functioning in community and grounded in a biblical worldview afford the best opportunity for necessary formation.” Dr. Joel Satterly
