The Generations Radio Program

Almost half of Christians say the Bible is ambiguous on its teaching on abortion. Why didn’t Jesus speak on abortion or homosexuality? Was He pro-LGBT and pro-abortion? The Old Testament law is important to establish a biblical standard of ethics on abortion. But, some use Old Testament law unlawfully. They do not handle the law in the right way. How would we handle the law as Jesus did, or as the Apostles did in Acts 15 and Matthew 15?

For the transgression of the people many are the princes thereof.  As we approach the 2020 elections, will God assign more tyranny to this nation?  Will we suffer the same as other Christians under tyrannical conditions elsewhere in the world? America has become more immoral over the last 15 years.  Do we deserve God’s mercy now?  Or do we deserve tyranny?  We conclude that the best solution to the nation is the Gospel, faith in Christ, and real repentance.

Is America on a repenting trend, such that the nation would strike a new path to repentance? Or is this Jehoahaz following up on King Josiah’s reign?  What would a Biden presidency look like? Rehoboam’s campaign slogans come to mind.   We take a look at Ron Sider’s campaign to get pro-lifers to vote for Biden on this edition of the program.

The US Supreme Court is not doing Christians any favors when it comes to religious persecution.  Will pastors be next in line for rejecting the party line on homosexual “mirage?” Kudos for President Trump on his nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the high court, but what does this mean for the nation? We discuss Deborah from the Book of Judges, and the role of women in family, church, and state. 

The Christian faith is losing ground in the west, with each successive generation flaking out at greater frequencies. The church appears powerless to stop the bleeding. In this interview with Ken Ham from Answers in Genesis, we attempt to identify some of the connections between the breakdown of the family and the breakdown of faith in the west.

Global Warming. 9/11 and Terrorism. Covid 19. There are just so many pretenses for the development of the regulative state and the police state. Does wearing a mask invite more police state restrictions upon the nation?  If liberty is still a value, where do you push back, and what is the best way to do it?  Do you address the problem with Walmart, or would it be more prudent to address your concerns with the courts, the legislatures, and the executive arm of government?

Wow. Wow. Wow. The new documentary “The Social Dilemma” is rocking the world. Why the dystopian negativity from this new documentary film on social media and its destructive effects? Is this really unravelling all of human society? Is this creating an excessively high level of social chaos, polarization, and anarchy? What are the more fundamental issues we need to be considering here? Kevin Swanson presents a careful Christian response to the deconstruction of society and human relationship in the modern world.

Only 2% of American millennials subscribe to the very basic elements of a Christian worldview, yet 61% still claim to be Christians. Does this mean that 97% of American professing Christians actually subscribe to a different religion — the religion of humanism? Is it time for a new church council so as to discern the difference between the false religion and the true faith within evangelicalism today? We provide a suggestion for initial language for a new ecumenical statement for the 21st century church, to follow up on the Councils of Nicea and Chalcedon.

The modern church and the whole world is pretty strong on age-segregated programs, but what does the Bible recommend in the pastoral epistles? Has human traditions displaced the laws of God, when it comes to family and church life? What if children were not discipled by secular education, and families took their Ephesians 6:4 responsibilities seriously? Here is a modest proposal for the abandonment of youth ministry, and invitation for the Holy Spirit — that the hearts of the fathers turn to the children, and the hearts of children turn back to the fathers. 

The last reformation was in the West. Will the next reformation be worldwide in scope? Despite a pessimistic theology that took root in America during the 19th century, the 19th and 20th centuries saw the greatest impact for the Kingdom worldwide in 2000 years. This program includes a big vision, but at the end of the day the discipleship of any nation begins at home with Dad.
