Last updated on: October 29, 2016 at 10:35 am By Gerald McDermott

Friends, I rarely comment in this blog on politics. On those rare occasions, I restrict myself to political issues that pertain to matters of faith. Here is one of those times.

A Muslim convert

Last updated on: October 28, 2016 at 7:38 am By Gerald McDermott

Not to Christian faith but to none. Born in Pakistan and now a physician in Toronto, Ali Rizvi grew up in Saudi Arabia. When Muslim terrorists started attacking innocents in the 1980s, he was repeatedly told by his parents and other Muslims, “That has nothing to do with Islam.” So he decided to read the Quran for himself. “He read the Koran in English, a language he had mastered in international schools. To his horror, he found that the book appeared... Read more

Gospel Coalition reviews The New Christian Zionism

Last updated on: October 26, 2016 at 8:31 pm By Gerald McDermott

McDermott’s volume is an important contribution to that process.” If you have not ordered the book yet and want it, you can get it here. Read more

Yesterday I shared with you the dilemma which InterVarsity Press (IVP) now finds itself in. The world’s biggest gathering of religion scholars (SBL, linked to the AAR) is threatening to ban IVP from its 2017 meeting because IVP publishes books that support historic Christian views of marriage. I asked Paul House, author of Bonhoeffer’s Seminary Vision, what he thinks Bonhoeffer would advise in this situation. Here is his response: (more…) Read more
