About SI

Welcome to SharperIron! 

Our mission is to sharpen our fellow Christians through articles and forum discussions, providing ideas and news from a Christian, biblical, fundamentalist worldview. We desire to bring fundamentalist Christian brothers and sisters together for mutual edification.

SI is a meeting place. New friendships develop here on a regular basis. You’re likely to be introduced to many believers you’d have never met otherwise. The site is an ongoing conversation among friends. So if you join, use your real name and make sure your profile is set to accept e-mails from fellow members. 

SI is a fundamentalist place. We welcome readers of every kind, but remember that SI is about how fundamentalists see the world. We differ from many evangelicals in that we believe in separating from error to preserve the pure gospel. 

SI is an edifying place. Iron should sharpen iron (Prov. 27:17) here. While that idea implies a bit of friction, it doesn’t invite friction in the form of gossip, insults, and general orneriness. That sort of talk abounds in the world but is not the way of Christ. People can disagree without engaging in personal attacks. Let’s work together and keep in mind that our omni-present Lord is in every forum.

Charles Spurgeon admonished preachers to keep their Bibles in one hand and the newspaper in the other. At SI we aim to do that as well.
