G.K. Chesterton's Orthodoxy Is Still in Tune With Our Times

G. K. (Gilbert Keith) Chesterton wrote his spiritual autobiography, Orthodoxy, in 1908. The amazing thing is how relevant his arguments and insights are today.

Convert your temporal money into eternal blessings

By Anthony Horvath

"You can't take it with you." That's what we Christians think but I'm not so sure it is strictly true.Do you remember Matthew 6:19-21? Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where theives break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where theives do not break in and steal. ...

Continuing Decline of the Church in America: Why?

By Anthony Horvath

Several surveys have been released over the last year. It has been awhile since I've posted here and these surveys would have been good opportunities to do so. However, the trends these surveys document have not gone away and now still remains a good time.

Faith like a little Child: Real Children Need not Apply?

By Anthony Horvath

Jesus said that unless you become like little children you cannot enter the Kingdom of God. In Mark 10:15 he says, "I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."

On Christianese and Shibboleths

By Anthony Horvath

In Judges 12, the Gileadites find a way to distinguish between friend and foe by compelling captured refugees to say the word 'Shibboleth.' Evidently, Ephraimites couldn't pronounce it correctly, saying instead 'Sibboleth.' Those that said that latter were struck down while those who said the former were allowed to pass.

A Christian Reaction to Obama's Stimulus Bill

By Anthony Horvath

There are plenty of commentators on Obama's stimulus package that it would probably be superfulous to add my thoughts on that. There are some things that haven't been said that I have decided would be better to address from a distinctly Christian viewpoint.

Fighting Fire with Fire: Christian StoryTellers Needed

By Anthony Horvath

Hat tip to Charles for pointing this article out to me. Recently ChristianityToday had an excellent article on the use of science fiction to communicate a distinctly secular and atheistic world view. If you are a Christian that cares for the state of the Church today and our modern challenge, you should read the article. The article correctly says: ... viewers don't leave movies such as Indian...

Transforming Society from Inside Out: Christian Calls to Return to an Acts Community

By Anthony Horvath

Nietzchke said that the last Christian died on the cross. The charge is not fair, of course. At the very least, there is no denying that the first generation Christians possessed a potent message backed up by an amazing witness in their lives. I see no reason not to be impressed by the deeply transformed Peter, Paul, John, James the brother of Jesus, etc.

Radical Love Will Revive a Radical Christianity

By Anthony Horvath

In my first blog entry at the Christian Post I urged readers- whom I expect will mostly be Christian- to rememeber that the Bible gives us no promise of having a Christian culture. Indeed, the early church sprang into existence in the midst of a multicultural, highly pluralistic, and often hostile environment. In other words, much like our own, minus the overt hostility... but the day is young, and many detect a trend in that direction.

We Do Not Have A Right to a Christian Culture

By Anthony Horvath

First things first. Many thanks to the Christian Post for inviting me to post regularly on their site. It is an honor and a compliment. I would invite the reader to take a look at my biography and explore some of my own webpages as it will help one to see where I'm coming from in general. I have some links at the bottom.
