Hope: Anti-Christian Belief in the Face of God’s Omnipotence

Hope: Anti-Christian Belief in the Face of God’s Omnipotence

CHALCEDON REPORT NO. 2 October 31, 1965  R. J. RUSHDOONY During this past month, in the course of my travels, I spent several hours visiting with an outstanding conservative leader, a man who is a major force in one of our most notable anti-communist organisations. In the first few minutes, he raised the question: “Do you see any hope?” Many ask this same question. I am … [Read more...]

The Nativity of Christ: Its Historical Context and Cultural Implications

The Nativity of Christ: Its Historical Context and Cultural Implications

In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria. And all went to be registered, each to his own town. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage … [Read more...]

Rationality & the Inescapable God: Foundations in Christian Worldview

The Inescapable God “… we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter” Isa 28:15 –   Part 1 of 3   – An Inescapable Goal The goal of fallen man[1] throughout history, as defined in Genesis, is “to be like God, knowing [or determining] good and evil” (Gen 3:5).

Hear the Howl: The Existential Cry of this Age

October 12, 2016 by Virginia Orton

Hear the Howl: The Existential Cry of this Age

Howl verb \’hau(-e)l\ : to cry out loudly and without restraint under strong impulse  (as pain, grief, or amusement). The 21st century person faces an existential crisis. For 150 years the Darwinist narrative that human life is a product of a mindless, unguided process – a fortuitous cosmic accident – with no ultimate meaning, value or purpose, has been disseminated in … [Read more...]

Same-Sex Marriage: Should it be a Civil-right? A Biblical View

August 27, 2015 by David Orton

Same-Sex Marriage: Should it be a Civil-right? A Biblical View

Preamble In view of the current shifts, particularly in the English speaking Western nations, in regard to same-sex marriage we have felt a constraint to release a paper that might resource Christians in "thinking the thoughts of God after him". Be warned though, it is a necessarily comprehensive response – and some – to the main arguments of the pro-homosexual apology. With … [Read more...]

The Message

21st century Western man is now living in the moral debris of the 20th century experiment—the experiment of messianic statism – Marxist, Fascist, and now secular Humanist – with its rejection of God in Christ as the genius of the Western cultural heritage. Spiritually, morally, and financially bankrupt the West has now exhausted its options. 

Our message despite the historic failure of humanity, including the church, is one of certainty and hope. God has a purpose for history and for nations—for their governance, prosperity, and peace. God’s plan for the planet is more than adequate for its crisis. Lifemessenger is committed to speaking a prophetically pertinent word to church and culture.
