The SNP Scottish Administration promoted, and the Scottish Parliament has now passed, the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill. The Scottish Christian Party has drawn attention to the sexualised agenda of Scottish politics since 2006. When I said in the mid-1990s that Scotland was only halfway through the Sexual Revolution, I did not know what the …
What does the Christian Party stand for?
Often at political hustings I have been asked: "What does the Christian Party stand for?" I summarise it in three ways. We stand for the main points that other parties stand for, without their unchristian polices. Then I summarise the other Parties quickly. Finally, I say: "So if you mix the blue, red, yellow and …
Exegesis of Christian baptism
The only solution to the many controversies in the Christian church is the proper exegesis and application of Scripture. Readers may have noticed in my previous blogpost on discipleship baptism that I used this approach to address the subject of Christian baptism. Instead of the standard arguments that each group uses, I used biblical exegesis …
Christian discipleship baptism
Christian Baptists teach “believer's baptism”, that one should only baptize those who profess faith in Jesus Christ as their Saviour. In practice, this means that they baptize adults and do not baptize infants. The problem with this is that the Bible does not teach this. A second problem is that these Baptists baptize only Christians …
Changing the UK Constitution
The United Kingdom Constitution, such as it exists, is under review by a Labour Party think tank under the chairmanship of former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. As one of the architects of New Labour, Brown's Commission is recommending A New Britain. This New Britain will have a new Constitution that will be guarded by …
Christian usefulness
The usefulness of Christians is paramount. It is not enough to listen to sermons and to worship God, but God expects us to be useful. "Faith without works is dead." James 2:20,26 I suggest that prayer without works is dead also Ex 14:15, Act 9:6-11. Jesus' Sermon on the Mount – Matthew, Chapter 5 Immediately …
Old heads on young shoulders
There are many adages from a by-gone era that need to be resurrected for the benefit of today's youth. One is that "you cannot put an old head on young shoulders". The cult of youth and the pandering to youth and their opinions, on the principle that they are the leaders of tomorrow, has a …
Hiding from accountability
Officials in public life are hiding from accountability. How do we improve public accountability? It did not begin with Kwasi Kwarteng's "not-so-mini" budget, which proved to be the biggest tax-cutting budget in a generation, disguised as a mini-budget, for which he did not provide the usual Report on the Economic and Fiscal Outlook from the …
Poor losers
One advantage of teaching sports to young people is so that they may learn that there are winners and losers. Young people need to out-live being "poor losers" and sport is a good playingfield to teach and learn this. It seems that many politicians have still to learn this. Too many behave like spoilt children …
Bankrupt – but why?
Slowly the public is learning that the UK is bankrupt. If you want to hear it explained, listen to Neil Oliver's introduction on GB News tonight about money, where it comes from and how it is created. The Scottish Christian Party told you about it over 10 years ago, but few people listened. Britain is …
