At Work and Play
The responsibility of the Christian intellectual is to integrate faith and knowledge. The data, insights, facts and discoveries must not be dealt with as though they belonged to a world other than that in which faith exists.
Christian Living
Making Sense of Suffering
We cannot make sense of suffering, or know how to resolve suffering, outside of the Judeao-Christian worldview.
The Lens By Which We See The World
The inspired Word is the divine THESIS, the lens by which we can see the world for what it truly is, and the guiding principle by which we ought to order our lives.
The Church’s Witness to the World
Too many Christians were satisfied with the form of faith without its substance. The situation has not changed over the centuries.
Orthodoxy and Orthopraxis
With the exception of the first introductory essay on polarization, the essays in this volume were presented at a conference on “Orthodoxy and Orthopraxis,” held at Redeemer College, Hamilton, Ontario on May 30-June 1, 1985.
The Global Deluge, the Ark, and God’s Glory (3/3)
This is the third part of a series on the global deluge of Noah’s day. Thus far, we have seen the importance of teaching about the deluge, and that it’s more than just a Sunday school class for children.
The Certainty of Faith
The centuries preceding the French Revolution (1789) are in many ways different from the epoch that followed. The radical change of direction introduced into the life and thought of the nations by this tremendous event shattered the continuity of history and impacted the matter of our faith.
The Riddle of Life
When a person looks at the world round about him for the first time, a multitude of questions throng in upon him from all sides. For the questions that we are concerned with in our lives are innumerable and most of them are so insoluble that, after once having come to grips with them, we seem to feel unable to withdraw from the contest.
Christ and Consumerism
Relentless consumerism characterizes the First World today. If Jesus is right that we cannot serve both God and mammon (Luke 16:13), it follows that Jesus’ followers today simply must examine their priorities in life lest we unwittingly take on the spirit of our age.
Stones for Bread: The Social Gospel and its Contemporary Legacy
Often we face the dilemma of having to choose between the privatism of those who do not see why they should apply their faith to social and political questions and the radical views of others who are certain they ought to apply faith to society in socialistic ways. Harry Antonides finds fault with both these perspectives.
