Too Heavenly Minded, Too Earthly Useless?- Why the Church Must Respond to the Issues Tearing Apart the Nation

May 22, 2026 by Zigfred Diaz 2 Comments

“What is this going to profit the body of Christ?” That question, asked in response to a theological paper on the ICC controversy and Bato dela Rosa’s arrest, reveals a deeper problem within the modern Church itself. Somewhere along the way, many Christians began treating justice, governance, abuse of power, and national moral responsibility as “too political” for the gospel. But Scripture tells a different story. The prophets confronted kings. John the Baptist rebuked rulers. Paul reasoned about justice before governors. The Church was never called to escape the world, but to bring every sphere of life under the Lordship of Christ. This article is a theological and prophetic reckoning with the burning issues tearing apart the nation, and a challenge to a sleeping Church that too often remains silent while society collapses around it

Calvinism and God’s use of “means”

December 3, 2024 by Zigfred Diaz Leave a Comment

Question: How sure are the Calvinists that they are unconditionally elected if no one shared the gospel to them ? While there are exceptional circumstances in which we hear testimonies of people being “saved” without any direct human involvement in sharing the gospel, God invariably employs means to draw the elect to the saving knowledge […]

Understanding the Differences Among Calvinists: 3-Point, 4-Point, 5-Point, and Hyper-Calvinism

September 1, 2024 by Zigfred Diaz Leave a Comment

Well, there are some points in Calvinism that some people who label themselves “Calvinist” don’t accept. However, for me, one can’t consider himself a Calvinist if one does not accept the five points. The five points work seamlessly and are logically flawless together and supported by Scriptures. Further, they have a basis in Church history […]

August 12, 2024 by Zigfred Diaz Leave a Comment

There is probably no other greater theological concept that requires that use of analogical language to describe the divine nature than that of the Trinity. The mysterious truth about the triune nature of God has been fiercely debated upon throughout church history and oftentimes analogies are used in order to somehow try to thresh out […]
