“At its core, fundamentalism asserted something remarkably simple: the fundamentals of the faith matter, and Scripture—not culture—defines them. There was no political platform. No culture‑war strategy. Just the conviction that God has spoken and that His Word is not ours to revise.”
(Paul S. Walker – TruthScript) It happened the way so many theological shifts begin today—not in a classroom or a denominational meeting, but in a casual conversation after church. After the service, while people lingered in the aisles catching up, a man from our congregation pulled me aside. We were discussing an issue where Scripture speaks plainly, but obedience has become culturally uncomfortable. He wasn’t angry. He wasn’t combative. He was calm, but concerned about how our church would be perceived in light of the culture today. At one point He paused and said, “Well, I’m just not a fundamentalist like you are.” Continue reading

(Nate Jackson – The Patriot Post) Billionaire Jeff Bezos, owner of The Washington Post, trimmed a lot of fat at the paper yesterday, laying off a third of its staff and shuttering several departments entirely. It’s like he put the newspaper on Ozempic. Or is that Bez-Ozempic?
“Cameron’s journey from Revival’s Golden Key to “Hellgate” thus illustrates a larger pattern: seeker-sensitive culture does not stop at responding to worship style preferences — it continues its submission to fleshly preferences until it’s telling lost people the “good news” that hell isn’t as bad as the church has always taught.”
The real earthquake wasn’t just what Bolz allegedly did. It was that leaders at Bethel, including Bill Johnson and Kris Vallotton, acknowledged they knew serious issues existed and failed to communicate clearly, publicly, and promptly. Silence. Internal handling. No broad warning to the thousands who saw this man as a mouthpiece for God. Only after outside pressure and public exposure did the apologies roll out—the corporate version of “we should’ve said something sooner.”
“In my opinion, this kind of book, this approach to the faith, is horrifying, offensive, and inappropriate merchandising. (
“In response to Kirk’s rebuke of “sin sniffers” and “heresy hunters,” looking for people to attack so our “ministries don’t dry up,” it must be said that neither Protestia nor I, as its publisher, earn any profit from this work. I operate without a salary, without ad profit tied to outrage, and without financial incentive to manufacture controversy. We also publish a clear, accessible set of doctrinal and editorial standards that invite accountability. Readers are encouraged to evaluate our reporting against those standards at any time.”
“The government can only do so much to protect the rights of the citizenry. If half the country hates us and applauds these assaults on our liberties, the threat of arrest (and likely dismissal by an activist judiciary) will do little to deter the wackier elements of the fascistic left from carrying out future attacks.”
“This is HUGE. We now have validation the 4Chan post from 8/10/2019 is a legitimate eyewitness account from an MCC prison officer that Epstein may have been switched out before news broke of his alleged suicide.”
“I know a number of charismatic leaders are talking to lawyers right now trying to see if they can sue me. And we’ll see how that works out for them.”
“Despite the claim by Cameron’s son that they had “flown in…the best from all across the world,” in truth, Cameron merely brought in a group of buddies from the world of micro-apologetics. Date, Copan, and Paterson are friends and frequent collaborators, whose cordial disagreements on issues like annihilationism are used as fodder for the “one more event” apologetics circuit.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Last week, a federal magistrate judge in Minnesota refused to sign off on federal charges against disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon for his role in the anti-ICE demonstration that stormed St. Paul’s Cities Church in Minneapolis during Sunday services.
During a 6-hour podcast, apologist and podcaster Mike Winger shared evidence he discovered during his year-long investigation into Bethel Church in Redding California’s leadership for covering up prophesy fakery and sexual harassment allegations against former minister Shawn Bolz. We’re re-posting this 2022 article that uses shark tank to describe what many people consider a deceptive and dangerous theological cult.
“It’s likely that what is going on in Minnesota is the key to the corruption we are seeing by the Left all over the country.”
“Pretti’s own parents had warned him not to do exactly what he did. His father told the Associated Press that they had warned their son “to go ahead and protest, but do not engage, do not do anything stupid.” He said Alex “knew that.” But Alex went anyway — gun on his hip, caught up in a movement that pretends to be about compassion but ends up fueling chaos.”
“Celebrities supply all the brand awareness and emotion. Then the NGOs and aid agencies supply the cover. And of course, intelligence and political power players supply all the direction. And the public is left believing it all happened out of kindness and love, not a sketchy, sinister strategy.”
(Barry Bowen – The Trinity Foundation) False prophecy is a gateway to fleeting riches. Three of the techniques of prophecy merchants were revealed in YouTube Bible teacher Mike Winger’s 
“These alliances have been forming for decades, but they have accelerated dramatically in the period following the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Charlie was the founder of Turning Point USA, or TPUSA, which many discernment ministries and critics have identified as operating within a Christian Nationalist framework focused on political issues and advocacy. It also has a religious arm called TPUSA Faith. This organization has exploded with new chapters and conferences not only in the United States, but also around the world.”
Mr. Trump admires toughness, disdains weakness. But most of all, he is not going to tolerate grifting and behavior that he considers counter to “American interests.”
(Revolver) There’s a reason Joe Biden’s autopen regime rushed to hand Anthony Fauci a blanket pardon on the way out the door. You don’t pre-emptively protect someone unless you know what’s coming. And you don’t shield a man like Fauci unless there’s a whole lot buried under the surface that hope never sees the light of day.
“…not all of Mike Winger’s six-hour video was about the Shawn Bolz allegations. Bethel Church has a ton of strange and aberrant beliefs that they dismiss and ignore all criticism of, and by making everything about this issue, without being open to others, it’s a convenient excuse to suppose this is the sum of what they have to answer for.”
