Honor and loyalty are closely related concepts - even nearly, but not quite, identical. In this third (and final) part of our series on honor, we address the matter of loyalty - what it is, what it is not, when it is due, and, perhaps most importantly, when it is not due. To God and nation, a man owes absolute and unconditional loyalty; to family and country, man owes a high degree of loyalty; to all else, man owes only a conditional loyalty (if any at all).
Further, a teacher, particularly a teacher of the Word, is not personally owed loyalty...

Honor and Shame

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) Honor was once something that was taken deadly seriously in the West. It was not a matter about which one joked. A man would go to great lengths to maintain his honor, and a woman would go to great lengths to defend hers. In our modern culture,...
Sanctified Image of God

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) All men are made in the image of God. Not all men are in the image of God. These two statements may seem contradictory, but they are not, because they reference different aspects of what it means to be an image of God - and what it means to be ...
Image, Idol, and Symbol

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) Man was made in the image of God. This certainly sounds good - even impressive -, and it is frequently used by modern (supposedly) Christian commentators to justify all sorts of things. But what even is an image? If you do not know what an imag...
Truth and Lies

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) When Christ says that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, the word used for “truth” is ἀλήθεια, which includes within its lexical scope ‘uncovering’ or ‘revelation’ (it is a negating word, like “innocence” in English). That which covers, di...

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) The connection of mankind to the earth, to the soil is not accidental. It was from the dust that God formed the first man, Adam, and it is to dust that we shall all one day return. We must not treat the earth as accidental or incidental. We wer...
Honor and Betrayal

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) Honor and loyalty serve as the foundation of any civilization worthy of the name and any culture worthy of respect. As these have faded from our culture, we have seen a rise of treacherous - and even treasonous - behavior and a concomitant decl...
Power and Authority

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) When things are proceeding as they should, when matters are rightly organized, power and authority are virtually synonymous, and they are at least reposed within the same men. But things in this life do not always proceed as they should. A king...
The End Times
Просмотров 4393 месяца назад
Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) Eschatology is the study of the end of all things. Scripture speaks, in many places, about the end times and what will take place leading up to and in those days. However, such matters are not the core of the Christian faith, and no Christian m...
Supernatural Intervention

Hosts Corey J. Mahler coreyjmahler.com (coreyjmahler.com) @CoreyJMahler ( MahlerLCMS) Woe aka Eschatologuy @treblewoe ( treblewoe) Deism posits that God created the world, and then walked away - a sort of clockmaker with the Universe being His clock. To the contrary, Christianity advances a view of God as active in His Creation. Certainly, every single thing that happens i...
Making Peace

“For unto us a Child is born and unto us a Son is given; dominion shall rest upon His shoulders, and His name shall be called Angel of Great Counsel, for I will bring peace upon the rulers and well-being to Him. Great is His dominion - and there is no end to His peace - upon the Throne of David and over His Kingdom, to establish it and uphold it with justice and righteousness, from now unto ete...
On Violence

‘The life of man upon the earth is warfare, and he is born to trouble, as surely as the sparks fly upward.’ - Job 5,7 We live in a fallen world. We can speak of a perfect world - and that is assuredly our goal and our destination, as Christians -, but the realities of this world cannot be ignored - Christians are not exempt from living in the world. From the very beginning of our species - when...
Seeing Satan on the Move, Part I of II
Просмотров 5624 месяца назад
This week’s episode is a crossover with the Renaissance of Men podcast from Will Spencer. In a wide-ranging discussion (over more than six hours), we covered everything from the reasons we started the Stone Choir podcast and the state of the LCMS to (in the second part) World War II and conspiracy theories. This will be all you are ever likely to hear. Within hours of publication, Will pulled t...
Confronting Sin
Просмотров 2344 месяца назад
When confronting sin, the Christian must distinguish between the private and the public. The private or secret sin should generally not be published (and is subject to Matthew 18), but the public sin is generally already published (and is not subject to Matthew 18). The primary goal of confronting private sin is to retain or to regain the erring brother; the primary goal of confronting public s...
Target Selection

In any conflict, there are at least two sides. In the life of man upon this earth, there is constant conflict with and against the world, the flesh, and the devil. As Christians, it is incumbent upon us - particularly as Christian men - to know what are our duties in this life; for a soldier, he must know his orders and where to execute them. If we are to oppose Satan and his forces, then we mu...
