“What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.” (Ecc. 1:9)

If there is “nothing new under the sun”, as Solomon tells us, why is there so much confusion in our present circumstances? Who are we to believe when it comes to the threat of Covid-19? Is there systemic racism in society and law enforcement? What relationship does the church have to the state? Can the state shut down church? How do we navigate the ever-changing influences of the world in the church? How should we reach the lost around us - our friends, neighbors and work colleagues? What

How we think on these matters is of vital importance to us as Christians and the Church. Solomon also wrote his Proverbs that they might give us “instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice and equity” (Prov. 1:3)

With this in mind, the Session of Shiloh OPC has added this page to our website where we will post articles, sermons, videos etc. which we believe will aid us in the coming months to discern wisely the difficult paths ahead. Subjects covered will include trends in the broader Church as well as issues facing the OPC. They will touch on cultural issues, church-state relations, Supreme Court decisions, evangelism, apologetics, race, church membership and the like.

We live in days where there is a crisis of truth, a crisis of knowledge, and a crisis of information. We pray that these articles will serve to open our eyes to Biblical principles and equip us to think and walk well before God.
