(The Dissenter) If our church members fall into the habit of frequenting the theatre, we shall soon have them going much further in the direction of vice, and they will lose all relish for the ways of God. If theatre-going became general among professing Christians, it would be the death of piety. Yet one finds the taste for such things increasing on every hand. – Charles Spurgeon
We are a fallen people. Sin is our nature. God sees that we, in our natural state, are profoundly wicked, and that every intention of the thoughts of our hearts is only evil continually (Genesis 6:5).

“Despite the disappointment of Buice’s actions, there is hope: God is working through faithful, virtuous leaders at the local level. The church’s future hinges on nurturing these pastors who trust God, reject selfish ambition and live transparently for Christ’s glory.

“The church’s role is not to usurp the authority of the family or the government but to uphold biblical standards, to disciple believers, and to bear witness to the truth. In doing so, it supports families with teaching and counseling, and it speaks prophetically to governments, calling them to align with God’s moral order.”

“The operative line in that song is “We’ve got no idea what we’re doing” — because they don’t have a clue. It’s bad not only because it hints at universalism but also because it simply doesn’t make any sense.”

“Did you notice their theological sleight of hand? The Eastern Orthodox, when instructing their insiders, distinguish between art and icons. But now, when defending themselves to us outsiders, they point to the art in the Tabernacle/Temple as evidence of icons. But for those images to be icons, they would have to be used in worship, bowed to, etc. But Israelites did not do that, at least never with God’s approval.”
