GUEST: Ken Ham, author, Founder and President, Answers in Genesis Last week in part 1 of an interview with Ken Ham, founder and president of Answers in Genesis, we discussed a large segment of the American populous that has become aggressive in its opposition to God and His Word. This necessitates that Christ-followers stand firm on biblical truth and train our children to do the same. Ken recently wrote a book on this subject titled  Will They Stand: Parenting Kids to Face the Giants. (312 pages, hardcover) which includes much personal content on who and what shaped him to have a high view of God and Scripture. The book is our new featured resource for a donation of any amount to The Christian Worldview. You can order online, by phone, or by mail. In a similar vein, we will also play a portion of a recent sermon by Pastor John MacArthur that describes our nation’s descent into sin and yet the believer’s hope in the midst of it. Finally, we will touch on whether the government or private businesses can force you to take the COVID-19 vaccine. Be sure to hear the answer to this so you can be informed.

GUEST: KEN HAM, author, Founder and President, Answers in Genesis With a growing and aggressive segment of America in full-throated opposition to God and those who follow Him, the question has become “How can biblical Christians remain faithful and raise their children to do the same?” Ken Ham, the founder and president of Answers in Genesis, Creation Museum, and Ark Encounter and our guest this weekend on The Christian Worldview, recently released an important book entitled Will They Stand: Parenting Kids to Face the Giants. Ken’s life and ministry is a model in standing firm on the authority of God’s word and the gospel, and he shares personal experiences and biblical principles that have shaped him. We will also discuss the court case that captured the attention of the country—the conviction on all counts of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for what the jury decided was the murder of George Floyd.

News reporting has become so politicized that it’s difficult to discover the truth on a given issue such as COVID, race and policing, election fraud, immigration, and countless other issues. Turn to CNN and you’ll get the left-wing viewpoint. Turn to Fox and you’ll get the opposite. Even what stories are covered—and aren’t covered—is based on political calculations. Then there’s the Big Tech companies regulating content they disagree with as part of controlling “misinformation”. Many people, including Christians, just don’t know what to believe anymore. So how does one know what the truth is on a given issue? A Christian’s worldview should be based on Scripture, but how to apply that to contemporary events of our day? How to know who can be trusted in this polarized climate? The apostle Peter wrote, “His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence” (2 Peter 1:3). To discern truth from error on current events, requires rock solid anchoring to three pillars from which we can understand the world around us. Tune in this weekend to find out what those pillars are. Welcome to our New Sponsor! — We have been Samaritan members for many years now, through several health needs, and couldn’t be more pleased.

GUEST: PETER McCULLOUGH MD, MPH, editor, A Guide to Home-Based COVID Treatment Do you sense the level of pressure and propaganda from all sectors—government, news agencies, corporations, celebrities—to get the COVID-19 vaccine? The message is “Get the vaccine while you can and you’ll be safe and life will go back to normal.” In fact, the pressure to get the vaccine is becoming so strong that a “vaccine passport” is being suggested so that those who have received the vaccine will receive a card that will allow them to move freely in society while those who haven’t received the vaccine will be restricted. So while the vaccine and masks and physical distancing and lockdowns—and fining and/or arresting pastors for holding church services—is the primary focus of government, actual treatment of those who get COVID-19 is hardly even mentioned. This weekend on The Christian Worldview, Peter McCullough MD, a practicing internist, cardiologist, professor of medicine, and consulting editor of A Guide to Home-Based COVID Treatment, joins us to discuss critically important early treatment measures if you get the virus. Also, Twila Brase, registered nurse and president of Citizen’s Council for Health Freedom, joins us to discuss a video presentation by Dr. Ryan Cole about COVID-19 and the Orwellian “vaccine passport” that is being suggested by government and corporations.

GUEST: GREG GILBERT, senior pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church Nearly 2000 years ago, the most important three days in history took place when Jesus Christ was crucified on a cross on Friday, buried in a tomb, and then rose from the dead three days later on Sunday, after which he appeared to hundreds of eyewitnesses. The reason these events are so consequential is that Jesus was prophesied to be, claimed to be, and proved by supernatural miracles to be the Son of God, who entered our world and offered his life to pay the death penalty for our sin so that those who believe in Him could be reconciled to God. As Scripture puts it: “He [God] made Him [Christ] who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21). The climax of that weekend was the resurrection—Jesus rising from the dead. “He is risen!” is the exultant proclamation of Christians around the world. Why is the resurrection of Christ so important? What does it mean for the believer? And why do so many not believe in Christ’s resurrection, despite ten post-resurrection appearances and over 500 eyewitnesses seeing the risen Christ at one time? Greg Gilbert, senior pastor of Third Avenue Baptist Church in Louisville, KY, joins us this weekend on The Christian Worldview. Greg is also the author of several books, including What Is The Gospel?, Who Is Jesus?, and Why Trust the Bible?

GUEST: MICHAEL PERKINS, producer, In His Image The lie of transgenderism has been accepted hook, line, and sinker in our society, no matter that it is biologically impossible to change the sex that God created each person in their mother’s womb, It stands to reason that a society that perverted God’s design for one-man one-woman  marriage would soon move on to perverting God’s design for the two sexes. A man who makes himself look like a woman has just been confirmed by the U.S. Senate to be the nation’s assistant secretary of health. Court cases around the country are cropping up to either allow or ban biological males from competing in sports against females and use their locker rooms. In June to coincide with “Gay Pride Month”, Marvel Comics is debuting a homosexual character in Captain America. What’s next for children to be corrupted and adults enslaved? Polyamory? Well, actually yes. Cambridge, Massachusetts just passed a measure recognizing domestic partnership “families” of three or more people, which will include the right to adopt children. This weekend on The Christian Worldview, we will discuss part 2 of Transgenderism: The Need for Grace and Truth with guest MD Perkins, the producer of the excellent documentary film, In His Image: Delighting in God’s Plan for Gender and Sexuality.

GUEST: ERIC DAVIS, teaching pastor, Cornerstone Church, Jackson, WY Last year in America, many who rioted and destroyed property (while disobeying COVID masking and distancing mandates) were arrested and released. Right now, those who enter the United States illegally are often released into the country. Apparently “justice” has become very selective. Meanwhile, in Canada, our ally to the north, in a small town just west of Edmonton, Alberta, a pastor has been imprisoned for the past month awaiting his trial two months from now in May. His crime? Burning and looting? Inciting violence? If you guessed, holding in-person church services in violation of government COVID mandates, you’d be correct. Pastor James Coates’ imprisonment has garnered worldwide attention. For non-Christians, government and “experts” are their gods, so they heap condemnation on the pastor for following biblically-based beliefs. What is surprising, however, is that many professing Christians say/write that Pastor Coates isn’t really being persecuted because all he had to do was “comply” with COVID mandates. Pastor Eric Davis of Cornerstone Church in Jackson, WY went to seminary with Pastor Coates, has written about his imprisonment, and will join us this weekend to discuss why Pastor Coates should be respected and prayed for, rather than ridiculed, for making the decision to meet in-person.

At the beginning of time God designed two sexes and the sacred, sanctified means of sexual intimacy by which a man and a woman could be unified as “one flesh” and bear children within the exclusive covenant of marriage. However, because of our corrupted sin natures, men and women reject the framework of biblical marriage for sex and instead seek to gratify and worship themselves in all manner of sexual perversions and abominations: pre- and extra-marital heterosexual sex, same-sex homosexuality, adult-child sex, bi-sexuality, pornography, transgenderism, and more. One of the most effective temptations that Satan uses to destroy men and women from honoring God is through sexual immorality. Satan lies, “God is restrictive. Expand your freedom and gratification by experiencing sex outside marriage.” Regret, ruin, slavery, disease, discontent, divorce, and God’s judgment are the consequences of succumbing. The good news is that sexual temptation is “common to man” and “God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it” (1 Corinthians 10:13). Join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview as we discuss “how to overcome sexual temptation.” Because you must and you can…with God’s help.

The word “sordid” (def: “morally ignoble, dirty”) is a tragic but appropriate way to describe the story of Ravi Zacharias, one of the world’s most well-known Evangelical leaders and influencers. Zacharias founded and presided over a large ministry bearing his name, with upwards of $25M in annual revenue, that was devoted to defending the Christian faith. He authored over 30 books and was the keynote speaker at major events all over the world, including non-Christian venues of higher education and government. People mourned when Zacharias died last year of cancer at the age of 70. But when allegations of widespread sexual impropriety and even criminality surfaced, which were confirmed by an investigation, mourning turned to shock and disgust. Last week in part 1, we discussed Ravi Zacharias’ extensive background leading up to the allegations. This week in part 2, we’ll discuss how this could happen to a prominent Christian teacher and how we can overcome this kind of fall.

Ravi Zacharias was one of the most well-known evangelical Christians in the world. Speaking all over the world and leading Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM), a non-profit, para-church organization based in Atlanta with satellite offices around the world and upwards of $25M in annual revenue. At speaking events and on his daily radio program, Zacharias was known for being an intelligent and articulate Christian “apologist”—one who provides answers to the philosophical, moral, and existential challenges to Christianity. He was highly respected personally and professionally. As is typical with nearly all high-profile ministry leaders, especially ones in ministry for 40 years, Zacharias absorbed a couple publicized accusations—one about exaggerating his educational credentials and the other a few years ago regarding a Canadian woman sending him sexual text messages. The latter was explained away as an extortion attempt. People all over the world prayed for and then mourned and eulogized Ravi Zacharias when he died of cancer in 2020. What no one was prepared for were the allegations and then confirmation by investigators that Zacharias had been involved sexually with women all over the world until a few months before his death. This weekend on The Christian Worldview, we will discuss some challenging questions about the man who was known for answering life’s deepest questions.

GUEST: GREGG FRAZER, author, The Religious Beliefs of America’s Founders Because some held Christian flags and crosses at the Trump rally in Washington D.C. on January 6 and because a melee at the U.S. Capitol ensued, the conclusion now pushed by the mainstream media and politicians and religious leaders on the left is that “Christian Nationalists” are homegrown terrorists threatening our democracy. But what exactly is Christian Nationalism? It’s being used as a catch-all pejorative—a word expressing contempt—for those who breached the Capitol, but by extension, any and all Christians—including evangelicals—who want biblical values integrated into civil life and polity. The reasoning goes, “You’re a Christian, you voted for Trump, Trump is a white supremacist who made baseless claims of election fraud and incited an insurrection which threatened our democracy; thus, you are a Christian Nationalist supporting white supremacy, sedition, and election denialism. You are dangerous to democracy and need to be marginalized, monitored, and suppressed. You are the enemy of the state and the people.” Even professing Christians are piling on. Tish Harrison Warren wrote in Christianity Today: “The responsibility of yesterday’s [Jan. 6] violence must be in part laid at the feet of those evangelical leaders who ushered in and applauded Trump’s presidency. It can also sadly be laid at the feet of the white American church more broadly.” Gregg Frazer, professor of political studies at The Master’s University and author of The Religious Beliefs of America’s Founders, joins us on The Christian Worldview to explain Christian Nationalism, what degree American founders envisioned biblical values in public policy, and how Jesus Christ will reign someday.

The Bible explicitly states in its final book, Revelation, that the world will be ruled someday by an authoritarian leader called the “beast” (or Anti-Christ). Here is the all-encompassing degree of authority the Anti-Christ will have: “And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name” (Revelation 13:16-17). To hold this kind of authority over the people of the world means that individual liberties—such as the freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, to petition government, and to bear arms—will have been eliminated or greatly restricted. So how does the world go from here to there? After all, the United States has a Constitution which enshrines individual liberties. Also, Twila Brase, president of Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom, will join us to discuss a recent interview with Catherine Austin Fitts (former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Housing and Federal Housing Commissioner) regarding how COVID is being used to gain greater government control.

While it’s natural to be over-impacted by the present experience, it seems like we are living in a transformative moment in world history. While there have been clear signs for decades of spiritual compromise in the church and moral decay in the country, and while Christians know what the end of the Book says about the coming godless globalism, events of the past year have made great strides toward that destination. Whether it’s government consolidation of power with COVID, false accusation of racism for anyone who opposes the mainstream perspective, a potentially stolen presidential election, and a new administration imposing everything against God and traditional America, many Christians are suffering from a case of the ABCDs. Anxiety or Anger about what is taking place. Bitterness over what has become of our country Confusion over what the truth is election fraud Discouragement or Despair for the future.

After a long and contentious election cycle that took place in the midst of a viral pandemic and social unrest and one which included allegations of widespread voting fraud and a breach of the Capitol during a rally for President Trump, Democrat Joe Biden was sworn in this past Wednesday as the 46th President of the United States. In his inaugural address, Biden stressed the need for “unity” in our divided nation. This from a man whose political party has labeled Trump and his supporters “white supremacists” who need to be “de-programmed”. With this new administration in power, unity isn’t possible when perspectives on issues are worlds apart and when God and His Word aren’t honored. Those on the Left are fond of calling those who oppose their godless, humanistic worldview “deniers”, as in “science deniers”, “climate deniers”, and “election deniers” (i.e. those who question the integrity of the election). While the Republican Party does not hold the corner on truth (God does), the Democratic Party has become the party of truth deniers. How so? And what are the implications of this truth denial for our country? Join us this weekend to find out. Short Take #1: Re-examining the Topic of Christians and Conspiracy Theories Short Take #2: The Resurrection “Conspiracy” Short Take #3: Counter Considerations To Election Fraud Short Take #4: The Difficult Notion of Bipartisan Unity Short Take #5: Being Truth Embracers in the Age of Truth Denial

It was another momentous week in the aftermath of the riotous breach of the US Capitol on January 6. While we still don’t know all who participated in the attack, the Left and the media quickly reached their conclusion that Donald Trump “incited” an insurrection and should immediately be impeached from office. Never mind that Trump only has a handful of days left in office. Not only was Trump impeached by the House without any legal representation but he was summarily silenced by Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and other social media companies for his “undermining of democracy.” But did the President in his rally speech that day actually incite a mob to rush the Capitol or is this more false accusation, like the Russia Collusion hoax? And why is slander, or false accusation, so wicked and associated biblically with Satan? Join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview as we discuss Incitement, Impeachment and the Wickedness of Slander. >> Related: President Trump’s speech on Jan. 6 Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander, and like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation, if you have tasted the kindness of the Lord. 1 Peter 2:1-3
