| This website is sponsored by a non-profit, tax-exempt educational
organization called "Vine
& Fig Tree." Their webpages advocate sweeping, radical
social changes in
church, in
politics, in
family, and in every area of life. Their proposals are based on the belief
that the Bible is the Word of God and a blueprint for all human action. Greater
minds have come to this same conclusion. Among them, Simon
Greenleaf, a founder of the Harvard Law School, and nearly
every Signer of the Constitution.
But Modern Americans have been trained to believe the Bible is "outdated" or "primitive." The modern world, by comparison, is "sophisticated," "scientific" and "secure." Who would ever want to go back to the world of the Bible? It only takes a little thought to realize that "the modern world" is not all it's cracked up to be, and the world of the Bible -- the world of Vine & Fig Tree -- may have much to teach us. It is the "experts" of the modern world who have taught us to pooh-pooh the Bible. They are wrong. They say we can't believe in miracles. They are wrong. They say Biblical Morality is "harsh" and the God of the Old Testament is "cruel." They are wrong. Our view has been called a "heresy": The Issue Is Authority
The Failure of Non-Christian Ethics Are we being "Judgmental?" Yes, definitely! From Moses to Malachi, the Bible sets forth an unchanging standard of Justice, Mercy, and Faith (Matthew 23:23). When faithfully taught and obeyed, observance of Biblical Law mends the torn fabric of life. Bringing our lives under the total jurisdiction of the Bible is the key to social renewal, not reforming the lives of others through the impersonal violence of statist bureaucratic regulation. Biblical Law is God's pattern for peace, justice, and harmony.
Can you be a Christian if you don't “worship” God? The Gospel Message is a Word from God. Every Word of God is Law. |

One of the reasons some people hate the Bible is because the God of the Bible is a Sovereign, Predestinating God, who has more power than man the would-be god, and is far better able to bring us "national security" than the big-wigs in the Pentagon. But to those who are willing to say "God is God, I am not" the Gospel ("Good News") is that a loving personal God is indeed sovereign.
