The Clear Line Between Good and Evil
The distinction between good and evil is clear and unchanging, contrary to relativist beliefs. The author reflects on past justifications for sin, influenced by deceptive lies.

Another Sign Satan is in Control
I was thinking about when I was young, in the sixties and seventies and the old television shows we watched. I know shows like “Father Knows Best” and “Leave It to Beaver” didn’t depict real life, but it was nice to think life could be like that. There was always some moral lesson to be …

I certainly can see where the evidence proves it is fake, like so …
