The Power of Language

by Joe Boot and Nathan Oblak and Ryan Eras

Pagan Utopianism and the Power of God

by Peter Jones and Ryan Eras

June 15, 2018 | Romans 1:18-25

Paganism is a worldview that worships nature, and ultimately, the self, rather than God the Creator. It is an ancient belief that has been expereiencing a resurgence over the past few centuries. When we reject the transcendent God, we remain spiritual beings and end up worshiping some aspect of creation.

by Peter Jones

Witchcraft

by Joe Boot and Jonathan Burnside and Peter Jones and Ryan Eras

April 14, 2016

Witchcraft is the attempt to acquire knowledge or power by manipulation and control. Scripture is clear that, apart from God and his word, such an act is in fact a headlong plunge into folly. The apostle James reminds us the path to true spiritual insight: “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him” (James 1:5). A humble and faithful plea to the only wise God is the way of wisdom. Any supposed shortcuts are the way of rebellion.

Gnosticism & Paganism

by David Robinson and Joe Boot and Pamela Frost and Peter Jones and Ryan Eras

July 6, 2015

Alone among world religions, biblical Christianity acknowledges God as a being totally distinct from His created order. Pagan beliefs and gnostic ideologies seek ways for man to become as God, while Christianity is clear that the chief end of man is to love and glorify God as His image-bearer. 

 

Tower of Babel: The Society of Satan

by Joe Boot

June 7, 2015 | Genesis 11:1-9

Babel's rebellion of autonomous man-centred religion is present with us today, but, in Christ, God is establishing an everlasting kingdom which will shatter all kingdoms of men.
