Southern Independence. Why War?

Civil War, War of the Rebellion, The War Between the States, the War of the…
Why Baptists Cannot Unionize With Others
Why Baptists Cannot Unionize With Others by Buell H. Kazee In the first place, Baptists are unique, or they or nothing. That is, they are different. There is no point to their being just another denomination. If they can possibly unite with any other religious body, and still remain true to the Bible, they ought to…
Anxiety by Pink
Anxiety Arthur W. Pink (1886-1952) “In nothing be anxious.” (Phil. 4:6, R.V.) Worrying is as definitely forbidden as theft. This needs to be carefully pondered and definitely realized by us, so that we do not excuse it as an innocent infirmity. The more we are convicted of the sinfulness of anxiety, the sooner are we…
Monumental Spiritual Attacks
The attacks on the Southern history and culture are not new. These things happened before. But what I find, as I am studying the Scriptures and reading books such as Christ in the Camp by J Williams Jones, this is very much a Spiritual battle. The monuments and the men, or rather the character of the men…

Last Man Standing

Teach Them Diligently Sandusky
Back in October, I wrote that I had never been to a homeschool convention. Well as of April 20, that has changed. My wife and I, along with our two oldest children went to the Teach Them Diligently Homeschool Convention, and wow what a great time it was! Two things we didn’t know (but figured…
NRA Life Membership
I am now a “life member” of the NRA. Some several years ago, I signed up for what they called “easy pay life” and sent $25 a quarter to them. I don’t always agree with the National Rifle Association, but I do figure it this way: If it weren’t for them, the right to…
