  1 Corinthians 10:12 In-Context

  10 And do not grumble, as some of them did-and were killed by the destroying angel.

  11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come.

  12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall!

  13 No temptationThe Greek for "temptation" and "tempted" can also mean "testing" and "tested" . has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be temptedThe Greek for "temptation" and "tempted" can also mean "testing" and "tested" . beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,The Greek for "temptation" and "tempted" can also mean "testing" and "tested" . he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

  14 Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.

The Year in Commentary: Jordan J. Ballor

Ballor, Acton research fellow and executive editor of the Journal of Markets & Morality: January 11, 2012 Ministers of Common Grace February 15, 2012 Corrupted Capitalism...
Life-Long Learners or Good Test-Takers? An Orthodox Christian Critique
The video below of a second grade teacher in Providence, RI reading his letter of resignation has recently gone semi-viral with over 200,000 views on YouTube. What I would like to offer here is an Orthodox Christian critique of the anthropological assumptions that separate this teacher from the “edu-crats,” as he terms them, who in his district so strongly championed standardized testing-oriented education at the exclusion of all other methods and aims. In the Orthodox Christian tradition, there is an...

The Christ Child and a Culture of Birth
In this day after Christmas edition of Acton Commentary, I take a look at the message the Christ child brings to us, particularly in terms of promoting a culture of birth. In “The Hopes and Fears of All the Years,” I note that “Where evil leaves us speechless, God speaks the Word of hope and salvation.” The Italian greeting Buon Natale captures this a bit better than the English, “Merry Christmas.” It struck me that this Christmas season, especially given...

Economic Justice IS Social Justice
All good people are concerned about the plight of the poor, and there are a multitude of ways to address this. The umbrella of “social justice” seems to get bigger every year, with Millenium Development Goals, the ONE campaign, and a host of other foreign aid projects that seek to remove the scourge of abject poverty. However, many of these projects overlook one fact: foreign aid doesn’t work. As PovertyCure‘s Michael Miller has said, While there are some success stories,...
