Author: Christian News
Christian News is a newspaper that covers current events in the theological secular arenas and how they affect your church and life.
Christian News is not an official organ of any church-body, but an independent publication designed to supply rank and file Christians with information needed to face the present crises in Christendom.
Christian News is not a doctrinally neutral observer, but is committed to the full historic Christian faith, as it is authoritatively revealed in the written Word of God, the Holy Scriptures, and correctly set forth in the Confessions of the Orthodox Church to wit, the Book of Concord in 1580.
U.S. Elections:What can we Learnas Christians?

Yet, we can learn something about the American people, especially on the massive issue of abortion.

Forced to Travel for Abortion?
That is the line fed to us by those who love abortion, which is murder of an unborn person. But who is forcing the mother? Is the baby holding a gun or threatening violence?

Oppressive and Unfair Equity
Worldly safe places prioritize the individual and relegate the Word of God, not allowing it to bravely convict, condemn, and instruct. The values of outcomes-based equity do not square with the judgment of God upon the individual who deserves only wrath due to sin.
