I reached a milestone today. I have completed the last chapter of my translation of the Book of Job. I am also scheduled to complete the last chapter of my commentary on the Westminster Confession of Faith, composed during my weekly Zoom discussions of each successive section, begun during the 2020-2021 coronavirus pandemic lockdown. I …

Can Christians change?
It used to be said that people will change their spouse before they will change their bank account. Although this may no longer be true, yet there is an equivalent consideration. Can or do Christians change their political party? Do you know any? If so, are they many? The rise of ReformUK to overtake the …
The poverty of discussion
I have noted the poverty of discussion elsewhere as part of a longer discussion about Christian behaviour. However, many people will not read long posts and will not concentrate on much more than a few pararaphs, so this post is short because the topic deserves an introductory blogpost of its own, if for no other …
What is islamophobia?
Most commentators discuss antisemitism and islamophobia in the same sentence, to give the impression that they are being balanced in their thinking. They are not – this thinking is defective and only adds to the confusion. The inability to agree definitions is confusing debate. The controversy on the definition of antisemitism created turmoil in the …
Non-Crime Hate Incidents
Repeatedly I hear commentators wondering from where the philosophy behind Non-Crime Hate Incidents (NHCIs) arose. NHCIs are topical because The Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson was investigated by Essex Police for a tweet that she had deleted a year before. In an interview with Nigel Farage on GB News [at 19:05 hrs], she highlighted that NHCIs …

GB News, like Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter, was an attempt to promote Free Speech against the censorship that spiralled out of control during the coronavirus pandemic lockdown. I have watched GB News and supported it from before and through the whole of its existence. I have watched as …
Donald Trump defeats Kamala Harris and Joe Biden
Donald Trump has won the US Presidency for the second time in a historic political comeback unpredicted by many of the mainline pundits and utterly unexpected by the American Democrats. In his victory speech to supporters in the early hours of the morning he acknowledged that God spared his life to get a job done. …

The apostle Paul on the flesh and spirit
"The fruit of the Holy Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." The apostle Paul in Gal 5:22-23. There is no law against these things, although they need careful definition, especially when an international movement is redefining words as part of its campaign to undermine …
Proof by assertion
More attention should be paid to this error, but not many people notice it, so it goes unchallenged. "Proof by assertion" is my coined phrase for those statements made by anyone who thinks that something is proven simply because they have asserted it. Some of these people even expect you to believe what they say, …
International socialism
People need to remember that socialism is an ideology and that it is not confined to any one nation. It is an international movement and thus Labour parties throughout the world have an international interest to collaborate in attacking capitalism and its perceived trappings. Australia's Labour Party state premiers plan to snub [at 22:25 hrs] …
