  • Holidays: Reminisces of the Past

    Holidays were the best growing up. The first was Easter. We went down to Gramma’s and Pap Pap’s.She cooked a huge fresh smoked ham. I can still remember the taste. It was like nothing I ever had before. We also had homemade pierogi (cheddar cheese and mashed potato filling was my favorite), Gramma’s delicious macaroni…

  • From Darkness to Life: Roman Catholicism in My Family

    Both sides of my extended family have been Roman Catholic for at least hundreds of years. My parents were raised Roman Catholic. My Daddy was an altar boy in the Latin Mass (before Vatican 2). Through God’s mercy and sovereign grace, my parents are Elect. In college they repented of their sins, and believed the…

  • Towards A Biblical Society: Patriarchy Forever

    For as long as man has existed, society has been structured around patriarchy. Thus patriarchy goes back to Adam and Eve. Sadly after nearly 6,000 years of being the way societies were ordered, in the past 60 years, Western societies have drifted away from patriarchy. The mere term has become a profanity to the woke…

    If we work the math forward from Daniel’s prophecy in Daniel 9:25-26, the “seven weeks and sixty-two weeks” conclude with the triumphal entry of Jesus on March 30, AD 33, which would have been Monday Nisan 10 in the Passion Week. Four days later would take us to Friday, April 3rd, AD 33.

    LET’S CLARIFY MERITIVE AND SALVING A response to Catholics who say they are saved by faith and that good works are not salvific and meritorious. Your denomination teaches that the practice of good works is necessary for salvation and that the Christian under the influence of grace deserves for himself and others the graces to…

  • The Lord’s Supper: The Real Presence of Christ

    I used to believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Lord’s Supper (communion). I now believe the Lord is present, but not in a physical way, rather it is spiritual. Communion is spiritual food to nourish our souls. I held to the Roman Catholic view that during consecration the bread and wine become…

  • Mary Considered

    In Roman Catholic theology, Mary has an elevated status; she is inextricably integrated into the economy of salvation. It is Mary who, according to Roman Catholic theology, is the Mediatrix of All Graces. She dispenses grace to sinners from the Treasury of Merit. The problem is that this Mariology is unbiblical. There is no such…

  • The History of Mental Health Treatment in America

    As a person who has suffered with severe mental illnesses for the past 25 years, I am keenly aware of the ignorance and stigma that sadly still exist in our modern societies. In the past 100 years, mentally ill patients who were institutionalized were, sadly, often subjected to acts of cruelty, sadomasochism, and barbarism. Although,…
