America: Land Of The Free - 4 July 2011

By Malgwyn | July 2, 2011

A prominent Christian in the US, Richard Land gives his 4 July speech emphasising the uniqueness of America from other nations - freedom rates for me as the highest in human values.

Why God’s Law Is Good News - by Carolyn Arends

By Malgwyn | August 20, 2010

What possible connections can there be between my comments on Per Bolling’s book on Romans, 350 foreign criminals winning their right to stay in the UK on the basis of their human rights, and an article written by Carolyn Arends  in Christianity Today on why “God’s Law Is Good News“?

Luther’s Decade Commemorations

By Malgwyn | August 10, 2010

Reading Bolling’s book on Romans  reminds me of how reading Romans did change one man, and how that altered the religious and political landscape of Europe. I am reading Bolling’s book on Romans with re-reading Roland Bainton’s biography of Martin Luther. I have posted a longer comment on Luther  in another setting.

By Malgwyn | July 21, 2010

When I read about, US Forces Vandalize Babylon, it was about the same time as the reporting on the Greek crisis and conjectures on the possible break-up (or the break-down?) of the Eurozone. “The Euro as we know it is dead,” said The Telegraph. “Nightmare vision for Europe as EU chief warns ‘democracy could disappear’ [...]

Christopher Hitchens On Jesus: Is Jesus God?

By Malgwyn | July 15, 2010

“Two thousand years have passed since Jesus walked on the earth, and men still wrestle with the same question Jesus asked his disciples at Caesarea Philippi (Matthew 16:13-16). It’s the question every person must answer sooner or later:
