Christians cannot take that good impulse and then baptize an ecumenical mess where Protestants, Rome, hyper-charismatic prophets-for-profit, Jews, and whatever other religious representatives happen to be available all join hands as though we are praying to the same God through the same mediator with the same gospel. We are not. ~ The Dissenter
I’m taking a well-deserved victory lap here. In 2010, I alerted my readers that NAR wolves were infiltrating what was then known as the Religious Right. The scent of a wolf is easy to detect, even when you’re not sniffing around. I was not. Yet there they were, roaming around the grounds of the White House and scratching at the back door, hoping that someone from the kitchen staff would open it and whisk them inside.
Wolves Are Inside The House!
I’ll begin this piece with a warning: There is a war going on in America that you may not have heard about. No, not a war with a Middle Eastern enemy. The conflict is between two opposing factions of what has been dubbed Christian Nationalism. It’s a long story—too lengthy to explain here–so for now I’ll whittle it down to a single issue: ecumenism.
In short, ecumenism is “achieving universal church unity,” the goal being to set aside differences of which there are many and promote unity among the world’s Christian churches. According to GotQuestions.com:
Ecumenism can also be defined more broadly: “a movement that promotes worldwide unity among all religions through greater cooperation.” For example, a Catholic priest may invite a Muslim imam to speak in his pulpit, or a church may get together with a Hindu temple to hold a joint prayer service. Defined this way, ecumenism is definitely wrong. We are not to be “yoked together with unbelievers” (2 Corinthians 6:14; see also Galatians 1:6–9). Light and darkness have no fellowship with each other.

7 Now when he saw many of the Pharisees, and of the Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath forewarned you to flee from the anger to come?
8 Bring forth therefore fruit worthy amendment of life,
9 And think not to say with yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able even of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
10 And now also is the axe put to the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Matthew 3:7-10 (1599 Geneva Bible) 
“In the most aggressive point in the debate, Andrew Wilson makes an attempt to force Candace Owens to defend her conspiracy mongering at the 2:34:00 timestamp: “Do you actually believe that anybody in TPUSA or Erika Kirk […] actually participated, had foreknowledge of, or facilitated the murder of Charlie Kirk?” This was an excellent way to put the question to Candace, such that she’d have no choice but to take a stand one way or the other….”
“It’s the Gold and Platinum VIP add-ons that are raising eyebrows, at a whopping $740.74 for gold VIP and an eye-watering $5,128.21 for the platinum, not including ticket price.”
(Amy Spreeman – Berean Research) I recently received a letter from a women’s ministry asking about speaking in tongues, after several of the group’s members discussed their own personal experiences praying to God in a private prayer language. Additionally, because the New Testament seems to be encouraging tongue-speaking in church, they asked if this gift was still alive and practiced biblically today. Great questions!
1 Now at that same time there were some present who were reporting to Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you think that these Galileans were greater sinners than all other Galileans because they suffered these things? 3 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. 4 Or do you think that those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them were worse offenders than all the men who live in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.” Luke 13:1-5 (LSB) 
“With Christian Post, there appear to be few illegal aliens unworthy of amnesty, as even criminal records do not merit deportation automatically.”
“Christ is the head of the church. The church does not need popes, cardinals, celebrity theologians, or anyone else to stand in that role. The ordinary ministry of the word is within the context of the local church and faithful preaching.”
(Linda Kimball – Renew America) “They who are called devils (demons; fallen powers) attempt…to seduce men from God who made them, and from Christ His first-begotten.” Justin Martyr, 2nd century A.D., Apology 58. (Crucial Questions About Spiritual Warfare, Clinton E. Arnold, p. 40)
“This gives false teachers like Kathryn Krick enormous power. They supposedly have the spiritual gift to locate and detect these invisible spirits, communicate directly to them, revoke their “legal rights,” and pronounce the victim free. But if the problem continues, which it always does, the victim returns for another session rather than questioning the false teaching.”
“The truth of it is, the entire movement was demonic. The youth did drop out, of society, of college, from families. They wandered, spiritually and physically, into new realms. Realms of depravity such as experimenting with homosexuality and lesbianism. Realms of mind-altering drugs. Realms of different living situations such as polygamy or ‘free love’ communes.”
“The pursuit of happiness will not be enhanced by a vengeful political movement which wants to regulate how we live and what we are allowed to have. That’s a totalitarian point of view. Adolf, Joe Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Minh all tried it as they blood-soaked their countries.”
“The COVID-19 pandemic feels like a fever dream now. Six years later, it’s almost impossible to believe any of it actually happened: the lockdowns, the shuttered schools, the toilet paper craze, the stupid barriers at supermarkets, the masked toddlers, and the businesses destroyed overnight.”
“While the Arc Institute researchers took strict safety measures, watchdogs warn the core technology opens the door to danger. If an AI can master whole-genome design to construct bacteria-killers, it could be only a matter of time before high-tech bad actors attempt to prompt similar language models to invent hyper-lethal, highly transmissible human plagues.”
“If leadership believed TPT was a faithful rendering of the Word of God, they would defend it. If they believed Simmons was exposed as a fraud, they would renounce it. Instead, they chose the third way beloved by every compromised institution under heat: delay, reframe, and hope the news cycle moves.“
“[Tucker] and the MAGA rebels who met on his estate in Maine over the weekend seem eager to split the Republicans. They have no chance whatsoever of electing anyone on a third-party ballot line. So the effect on the U.S. will be to elect more Democrats to Congress.”

(The Dissenter) There’s distasteful. There’s absolutely vile and disgusting. And then there’s this.
“Following the collapse of vaccine mandates in early 2022, a rapid memory-holing of the entire fiasco took effect. Unfortunately, many Christian leaders who have had ample time to repent of closing their churches, going along with senseless lockdowns, and pushing the vaccine on their congregants have also been noticeably quiet in the years since.”
