God Is Not A God Of Confusion

Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 7, 2023

We must not imagine that the confusion roiling western culture is because of God. Having rejected the Lord, civilization is confused, and without hope of being set right without God's merciful intervention.

“God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” [1] We live in a world that is increasingly confused—confused about society, confused about the role of government, confused about the sexes, confused about God. And I could undoubtedly go on about the confusion that reigns in our world. Confusion ...read more

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 2, 2025

When denial dies and we stop playing God, repentance opens the heart to mercy, and grace restores joy that guilt once stole.

When we stop trying to be God, something in us exhales—and God can ...read more

They could only reach the conclusion that Osama Bin Laden and ...read more
