We the Born

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
The recent abortion laws, such as that of New York or the proposed one in Virginia, are barbaric. Future generations will look back on us with horror. Our forefathers sacrificed everything for their posterity, but we the born are sacrificing our posterity.

Thou Shalt Not Smirk

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
These days tolerance is a one way street. The "shock troops of tolerance" clamor for tolerance, but they often have zero tolerance for Christians, for pro-lifers, for Trump supporters. A case in point is what happened to the Covington students.

Planned Parenthood and the African-American Community

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
Evangelist Alveda King, the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is pro-life and has spoken out well and clearly against what Planned Parenthood is doing, particularly in the African-American community. She explains here how the organization targets the black community.

The Push for Green Justice Is what They're Protesting in France

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
The turmoil on the streets of France right now are taking place because their president is trying to force the French to pay excessive taxes to fight climate change. In America some leaders, like Congressman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, want to implement similar measures.

The Irony of Refusing to Swear in on the Bible

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
One of our recent politicians was sworn in---but she refused to do so on the Holy Bible. This is ironic because the Bible helped create our government in the first place. The Scriptures helped us develop the concept of the consent of the governed.

Exercising Your Options in 2019

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
The Apostle Paul sometimes uses allusions from exercise, including running, to spiritually encourage his readers, such as “Run in such a way as to get the prize.” Why not include the goal of exercising more in 2019? Regular walking can be such a positive habit.

A Christmas Classic-Handel's "Messiah"

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
I view Handel's "Messiah" not only as a Christmas classic, but as a zenith of Western civilization. There is a fascinating back-story about this wonderful piece of classical music, the text of which is based 100% on Scripture.

Some Presidential Reflections on Christmas

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
Some of our past presidents made some interesting and heart-warming remarks about Christmas. For example, the young George Washington wrote in his own hand (likely something he copied) a powerful Christmas poem. Other reflections here come from Truman, JFK, and Reagan.

Did Missionary Die from Arrogance or Altruism?

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
A young man was killed in an obscure island last month. His goal was to bring to a closed society the gospel of Jesus. Some critics in the West have accused him of dying from his "arrogance" and "hubris," but not from noble motives. This piece responds to such criticisms.

Was Jesus an Historical Figure?

By Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
Recently, the prime minister of Pakistan called into question whether Jesus even existed as an historical figure. So also did a comedy show on TBS. But Jesus is quite well-documented in historical sources, despite the fact he was not a part of the "aristocratic ruling class." Even skeptics who question things about Jesus generally do not question whether He existed.
