February 01 2013 By virtueonline Liberal 'Christians' like Steve Chalke leading homosexuals into hell

February 01 2013 By virtueonline Limping Between Two Opinions: The Moral Evacuation of the Boy Scouts of America

This capitulation and the abandonment of the B.S.A.'s longstanding policy will, in the end, please no one. The new policy is a half-measure that amounts to cowardly moral evasion. No group can remain divided on a question of such moral importance and urgency. Homosexual conduct and relationships will be condemned or celebrated. There is no middle ground. Back in 2004, the B.S.A. maintained that homosexual conduct is "inconsistent" with the "morally straight" requirement of the Scout Oath.

While these Christians are particularly concerned that religious freedoms are being eroded in this country, "they also want Judeo-Christians to dominate the culture," said Kinnamon.

"They cannot have it both ways," he said. "This does not mean putting Judeo-Christian values aside, but it will require a renegotiation of those values in the public square as America increasingly becomes a multi-faith nation."

January 23 2013 By virtueonline Obamanation Inauguration - Bill Muehlenberg

Yet he had the gall and hypocrisy to swear an oath on the Bible and throw the 'God' word around a few times in his speech - fully stripped of all biblical content of course. When he does one day stand before his maker and his judge he will have an awful lot to answer for. Indeed, if he really wants the blessing of God, then why does he keep promoting that which brings about the opposite response from God.

January 23 2013 By virtueonline The naked evil of abortion: 3801 Lancaster - Eric Metaxas

These numbers are so mind-numbing that perhaps we in the pro-life movement may be forgiven if we occasionally forget what those numbers actually mean.

That's why we occasionally need a reality check-such as a brand new documentary called "3801 Lancaster." The title refers to the address of an abortion clinic in West Philadelphia that is the site of a scandal so horrific that it's almost impossible to describe without tears.

January 15 2013 By virtueonline Evangelical Alliance responds to Steve Chalke over Gay Marriage

Steve has raised issues which touch on deep areas of human identity. At a Soul Survivor seminar last summer, a Baptist minister who lives with same-sex attraction introduced his talk to a marquee full of young people by indicating that he would love to find a theology in the Bible which would support a sexually-active gay life. But, he said: "I've come to the conclusion that it is not there and I don't want to live in rebellion to the one that I love."
