It's Thursday, June 11th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Nigerian court sentences Muslims to death for executing Catholics Last week, a court in the African nation of Nigeria sentenced four Muslim men to death for killing dozens of Catholics. Four years ago, the gunmen attacked a Pentecost Sunday service at a Catholic Church in southwest Nigeria. They killed 41 people, including children. Authorities determined that the armed men belonged to Al-Shabaab, an Islamic terrorist group. The massacre was the first terrorist attack on a church in southern Nigeria.   According to Open Doors, Nigeria is the seventh most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Proverbs 7:14 and 16 says, “Behold, the wicked man conceives evil . . . His mischief returns upon his own head, and on his own skull his violence descends.” Sudanese man arrested in Ireland for attempted beheading Authorities in Northern Ireland arrested a migrant from the African nation of Sudan on Tuesday. Police in Belfast accused him of carrying out a severe knife attack on a man in his 40s. People across the United Kingdom responded to the attempted beheading with protests. The victim was hospitalized with significant injuries to his face, neck, and back. Many U.K. citizens question their government's immigration policies, including Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe. In February, the lawmaker launched a national political party called Restore Britain. The party is devoted to ending mass immigration and also openly recognizes Britain's Christian heritage.  Congress funds $70 billion for ICE and Border Patrol In the United States, President Donald Trump signed the Secure America Act yesterday. The $70 billion package fully funds the Department of Homeland Security. The bill specifically covers U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Customs and Border Protection for the rest of President Trump's second term.  Listen to comments from House Speaker Mike Johnson after Congress passed the bill. JOHNSON: “The historic mandate that put President Trump in the White House and Republican majorities in both the House and the Senate is evidence of the fact that Democrats' ‘Defund the Police' agenda is wildly out of step with hardworking American families. After four long years of Democrat policies that opened the door to dangerous criminals and deadly drugs, Republicans are delivering on our promise to restore safe streets and secure our borders.” Inflation rose 4.3% Inflation reached a three-year high last month for American consumers.  The cost of goods and services rose 4.2 percent in May compared to a year ago. Rising energy costs drove the inflation. Gasoline prices were up 40 percent from a year earlier.    iPhone launch connected to lower U.S. fertility rate A new study from the National Bureau of Economic Research suggests that the launch of the iPhone contributed to declining fertility rates in the U.S. Apple introduced the iPhone in 2007. The U.S. general fertility rate has fallen by 22 percent since then. People have been spending more time on their smartphones and less time with each other.  The study noted, “Overall, the diffusion of the iPhone explains 33–52% of the decline in the general fertility rate among women aged 15–44.” Southern Baptists: Only men can serve as pastors The Southern Baptist Convention affirmed its position yesterday that only men can serve as pastors. Over 70 percent of the denomination's representatives voted in favor of the “Truth and Unity Amendment.” The measure was sponsored by Albert Mohler Jr., the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. The amendment would require churches in the denomination to not appoint women as pastors, elders, or overseers.  Listen to comments from Dr. Mohler. MOHLER: “This motion makes very clear that we affirm the historic Baptist understanding of the pastor, elder, overseer. The structure of the language I have brought goes all the way back to the 1689 Baptist Confession, where the office and function of the pastor are clearly delineated. “This amendment makes very clear that a church, in friendly cooperation with the Southern Baptist Convention, doesn't have anyone other than a man as pastor in the office of pastor and specifies on the functions of the pastor that the key central function of preaching the Word of God to the gathered assembly is limited to men by Scripture.” 1 Timothy 3:1-2 says, “If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore, an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach.”  Animated movie “David” claims #1 spot on Netflix And finally, the animated film David reached the number one spot on Netflix for movies in the United States over the weekend.  The Bible movie from Angel Studios officially premiered on the streaming service just last Wednesday. (audio from David movie trailer) DAVID: “I'm just a shepherd, but deep down I know I can take on the world.” NARRATOR: “There is a darkness over the land.” SAMUEL:  “Our enemies will strike once more.” MAN: “Imagine the biggest warrior you have ever seen!” DAVID: “Okay.” MAN: “Now imagine somebody ate him.” GIRL: “Remember when I told you God had big plans for you?” GOLIATH: “You will serve us!” GIRL: “They may have been bigger than even I thought.” Christian music artist Phil Wickham voiced the adult David in the movie. Wickham told Crosswalk Headlines the film is “full of the story of God and full of Psalms and full of hallelujah and faith and hope.  … I think this movie will last decades. I think it will be something our grandkids watch.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, June 11th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

In this essential episode, we dive deep into Baptist Catechism Question 15, exploring the doctrine of God's Special Providence and the nature of the first covenant made with Adam. This is a crucial theological discussion that lays the foundation for understanding sin, redemption, and the superiority of the Covenant of Grace in Christ! We ask: "What special act of providence did God exercise towards man in the estate wherein he was created?" Learn how God established the Covenant of Life (also known as the Covenant of Works or Adamic Covenant), requiring perfect obedience and instituting a positive law—the prohibition against eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. We break down the difference between God's ordinary and special acts of providence (drawing from the 2nd London Baptist Confession 5.2) and explain why this single prohibition was necessary for testing man's allegiance. Ultimately, we reveal why the failure of the Covenant of Works makes the Covenant of Grace in Jesus Christ so much better. The glorious obedience of the Last Adam (Christ) is the only path to justification and eternal life, contrasting sharply with the disobedience of the First Adam. This is a vital episode for anyone studying Systematic Theology, the Baptist Confession, or the structure of God's redemptive plan!

Monday Extra - 27th October 2025That BAPTISM ThingTalking to some friends on Thursday 23rd October, the subject of Baptism arose, - again - and it reminded me of a sermon I had preached in 2022 - in a church that is by its constitution, Reformed Baptist - subscribing to the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith. Part of the sermon addressed the subject of Baptism, and I extracted that section for a podcast episode in 2022. I have reprised that episode here, as a bonus 'Monday Extra' - because it is an important issue. Baptism should UNITE Christians, not divide them. Listen to find out why. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week's bonus episode is an interview with Jeremy Walker, a pastor at Maidenbower Baptist Church in Crawley, West Sussex, just south of London. Jeremy has long been a friend of the Banner and serves as book reviews editor for the magazine.  We sat down with Jeremy to talk about his Christian pilgrimage, call to ministry, some favourite books and, well, where he stands on the pronunciation of John Flavel's name.    Note: Jeremy mentioned a book chapter that had helped him towards greater assurance and he identified that as a chapter on the fruits of the Spirit in B. B. Warfield's The Saviour of the World. In retrospect, we think that the chapter in question is actually that on 'The Spirit's Testimony to Our Sonship, Romans 8:16' in Warfield's Faith and Life.    Resources Mentioned or Relevant From the Heart of Spurgeon Podcast If you enjoy the Banner Magazine podcast, you are likely to find From the Heart of Spurgeon most valuable. The episodes, of which to date there are 260, consist of Spurgeon sermons read by Jeremy Walker.    Bunyan, John, The Pilgrim's Progress Fuller, Andrew, The Works of Andrew Fuller (Banner one-volume edition).  Spurgeon, C.

In this episode of the Broken Wharfe Podcast, John Mark is joined by Texas pastors Aaron Wright and Wilson Marsh. They discuss Christian liberty as outlined in chapter 21 of the Baptist Confession of Faith. Their discussion covers its implications for worship, the limitations imposed by man-made doctrines, and the freedom believers have under God's law. They emphasize the difference between moral and positive law, the proper observance of the Christian Sabbath, and the importance of adhering to scriptural commands while avoiding legalism. The episode also addresses practical concerns such as alcohol consumption, balancing Christian freedom with sensitivity towards individuals with weaker consciences, and the pivotal role of doctrines and confessions in guiding church practices.Send us a textContact Broken Wharfe Tweet us @Brokenwharfe Find us on Facebook at BrokenWharfe Follow us on Instagram at BrokenWharfe Email us at info@brokenwharfe.com Thanks for listening!

Pastor Caleb walks through our use of the 1689 Baptist Confession, our summary statement of faith, as well as the degree of agreement necessary for meaningful membership.

Pastor Ray preached from Romans chapter 11 and various other areas in scripture. Is the reformed faith outdated or alive and well? Listen and believe.

In this episode we explore the profound and harmonious relationship between man's will and God's sovereignty as revealed in Scripture. Using the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith as a framework, we dive deep into biblical texts to unpack how God's sovereign purposes coexist with human responsibility. Is man's will truly free? How does God's control over all things align with our choices and actions? These are questions Christians have wrestled with for centuries, and we aim to provide clarity through a biblical and doctrinal lens.

Sermons Archive RSS 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith | Chamber 24, Paragraphs 1 & 31 God, the supreme Lord and King of the whole world, has ordained civil authorities to be under him and over the people, for his own glory and the public good. For this purpose he has armed them with the power of the sword, to defend and encourage those who do good and to punish evildoers (Romans 13:1-4)3 Because civil authorities are established by God for the purposes stated, we should submit in the Lord to them in everything lawful that they require. We should submit not only for fear of punishment but also for the sake of conscience. We ought to make requests and prayers for kings and everyone in authority, so that under their rule we may live a quiet and peaceful life in all godliness and honesty. (Romans 13:5-7; 1 Peter 2:17; 1 Timothy 2:1-2)Romans 13:1-7 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgement on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, and avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. 5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake. 6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God's ministers attending continually to this very thing. 7 Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom custom, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor. Hebrews 10:19-25 Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and having a High Priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

2LCF Chapter 22, Paragraph 1:The light of nature shews that there is a God, who hath lordship and sovereignty over all; is just, good anddoth good unto all; and is therefore to be feared, loved, praised, called upon, trusted in, and served, with all the heartand all the soul, and with all the might. But the acceptable way of worshipping the true God, is instituted by himself,and so limited by his own revealed will, that he may not be worshipped according to the imagination and devices ofmen, nor the suggestions of Satan, under any visible representations, or any other way not prescribed in the HolyScriptures.https://www.grbc.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/The-1689-Baptist-Confession-of-Faith.pdfhttps://www.the1689confession.com/1689/chapter-22
