Some pessimistic analyses suggest well over 4 million once-active Americans are now disabled from this often-ignored pandemic.
(Victor Davis Hanson – The Patriot Post) When the original strain of COVID-19 arrived in spring 2020, a pandemic soon swept the country.
By far most survived COVID. But hundreds of thousands did not. American deaths now number well over 1 million. Continue reading
“This is an outrageous assault on the 4th Amendment. Democrats are making us into a Third World nation of coups, lawlessness, and constant lies.”
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) Joe Biden, and whoever pulls his strings, directed the Mar-a-Lago affair from start to finish. The evidence is overwhelming despite his denials. More evidence was revealed yesterday during the hearing to approve a Special Master. Continue reading
(Bill Muehlenberg) Forget this bogus idea that we can somehow save ourselves:
Mankind’s greatest and most urgent need is to get right with God. That of course presupposes that we are NOT now right with God. We are sinners who live in alienation from and hostility to God. The whole point of the life and work of Christ was to make a way for lost sinners to be reconciled to a holy and just God.
But we must be clear as to what biblical conversion is all about. And that means being clear about our condition as sinners and our complete inability to save ourselves and turn our lives around. Continue reading
Back in June during “gay pride month,” Martin encouraged Catholics to celebrate this atrocity stating that “for the religious person,” gay pride month is “a reminder that LGBTQ people are beloved children of God.”
(The Dissenter) Recently, James Martin, a prominent pro-homosexual Roman Catholic priest, was assigned by Pope Francis to a major position with the Vatican. That position is a five-year term as a consultor for the Vatican’s Dicastery for Communication…. Continue reading
“The judge, Aileen Cannon, seems fair.”
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) A federal judge ordered Monday that an independent special master be appointed to review the records seized by the FBI during its raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and ordered the Justice Department to stop its own review of the material for investigative purposes. Continue reading
(Protestia) In a new nationwide survey released by George Barna for the Arizona Christian University, it’s revealed the majority of Christian pastors do not have a biblical worldview, with the Executive Pastor having the lowest that is on par with the culture at large.
Barna defines “biblical worldview” as believing that absolute moral truth exists; the Bible is totally accurate in all of the principles it teaches; Satan is considered to be a real being or force, not merely symbolic; a person cannot earn their way into Heaven by trying to be good or do good works; Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on earth; and God is the all-knowing, all-powerful creator of the world who still rules the universe today. They explain: Continue reading
“There can be no doubt that something wicked this way comes and that it is coming soon. It seems that Paul Revere must ride again at electoral midnight or the Republic is lost to the militant aggression of the Democrats and their enablers…”
(David Solway – PJ Media) So through the night rode Paul Revere; And so through the night went his cry of alarm To every Middlesex village and farm,— A cry of defiance, and not of fear… Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
First, we had the Spygate scandal, the Russia collusion hoax, the counterfeit impeachments, a rigged election (as no sentient and honest person can doubt), an open border to ensure a future Democrat voting bloc, and a Soviet-style show-trial resulting from a so-called “insurrection.” Next, the former president’s home was raided by the FBI on patently false pretenses, presaging a possible indictment. Now we learn that Joe Biden will supplement the IRS with 87,000 additional armed agents. Continue reading
“…the documents show that by August 2021, Pfizer and the FDA knew the vaccines were not safe and effective but rolled them out anyway.”
(Art Moore – WND) Amid the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s slow-rolling of data on the risks of the COVID-19 vaccines, the British government is recommending against pregnant and breastfeeding women receiving the shots. Continue reading
“I don’t hide how I feel, but I can’t pretend I’m [not] promoting an agenda even though I clearly am with all the stuff I’m doing.”
(James Murphy – The New American) Project Veritas, the watchdog organization specializing in undercover videos exposing nefarious actors in politics and culture, dropped the second video this week exposing left-wing indoctrination in education. On Thursday, the prestigious Trinity School NYC and its director of student activities, Jennifer Norris, were targeted as Norris was caught on camera bragging about peddling her left-wing activism to students in the name of “education.” Continue reading
“It’s a great time to be a filmmaker who wants to work outside of Hollywood,” he says, citing emerging platforms like SalemNOW, which is distributing his film, along with features from The Daily Wire and, most recently, Breitbart News via the Sept. 7 release of “My Son Hunter.” The latter is a seriocomic look at Hunter Biden’s brazen behavior.
(Christian Toto – Just the News) Director Justin Malone wasn’t sure his indie 2020 hit “Uncle Tom” merited a sequel.
Less than two years later, Malone’s team had four-plus hours’ worth of material for a second installment. Continue reading
“Now that Joe Biden is out in the open about criminalizing his opposition and brooking no dissent, we can skip here in the United States right to the final stage of socialism. We have the entrenched deep-state bureaucracy, and we have the dementia-ridden septuagenarian puppet in charge, so we’re all set.”
(Robert Spencer – PJ Media) In Marxist theory, the final stage of socialism is true communism, when everyone shares of his or her resources equally, the state withers away, and true justice finally dawns upon the earth. We never have seen that stage and never will, because Marxism is rancid pseudo-religious hogwash that runs directly contrary to human nature…. Continue reading
McLean Bible Church will be offering a class based on this book which Platt’s church says will help them “understand civic and cultural engagement as a way to obey Christ’s call to love our neighbor, but to do so with both love and trust-compassion and conviction.”
(The Dissenter) A prominent Obama campaign staffer tied to Russell Moore, the ERLC, and The Gospel Coalition, has proposed a federal law legalizing abortion up to 15 weeks. Who is Michael Wear? Continue reading
Ivermectin was mocked by the media, even politicians and doctors, for its use with horses.
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) A peer-reviewed study first posted in mid-July shows that regular use of ivermectin as a preventative works against COVID-19. Ivermectin costs $.50 a tablet.
The authors of the study determined that regular use of ivermectin led to a 100% reduction in hospitalization rate. It showed a 92% reduction in mortality rate, and an 86% reduction in the risk of dying from COVID-19 when compared to non-users. Continue reading
“This is where we’re at—not only as a nation, but as the Church. When our church leaders sound identical to the wicked leaders of our nation, how do we respond as the Church? Why do we continue to allow these men to blaspheme God and disparage His bride?…”
(The Dissenter) In case you missed it, United States dictator, Joe Biden, with an ominous red Hitler-like background, announced that the “greatest threat” to this nation as “MAGA Republicans” and vowed to fight them. Continue reading
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) It can be easily said that over the last two and a half years, the church has failed miserably in its response to lockdowns. Instead of telling the truth, the church capitulated to, if not, enthusiastically promoted the lies. It has unfortunately been the less theologically robust camps that defied government tyranny. John MacArthur would invoke the doctrine of lesser magistrates a little over two years ago, and James Coates would go to jail for over fifty days in Canada. Yet a plethora of theologically robust leaders, many of whom were faithful the last two years, and they have crafted a statement condemning the government’s actions and created a theological framework so that it never happens again. Continue reading
(Kristina Wong – Breitbart) President Joe Biden broke his promise to “never politicize” the United States military after delivering a highly partisan prime time speech Thursday night, attacking Republicans with two Marines sentries clearly flanking him in the background.
Biden had promised during his first visit to the Pentagon as president, “I will never dishonor you. I will never disrespect you. I will never politicize the work you do.” Continue reading
(Stacey Lennox – PJ Media) Attorneys General Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Jeff Landry of Louisiana are on a mission to detail the scope and depth of how the Biden administration is using Big Tech companies like Facebook/Meta to curb the free-speech rights of Americans. On the heels of shocking comments by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg about the FBI’s role in censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story, initial e-mails related to a lawsuit filed by Schmitt and Landry show even more evidence that the Biden administration is using Big Tech to do what it is not, allowed to do according to the Constitution. Continue reading
“They wanted us to believe that the timing — when Lindell was defending Trump after the Capitol protests and questionable election results — was merely coincidental and not related to the decision to cancel Lindell’s successful product line. Got it.”
(Ryan Ledendecker – PJ Media) Go woke, go broke” is the slogan that keeps on giving. The latest installment of woke, politically active retailers now facing financial ruin in the form of shuttering stores and mass layoffs is none other than conservative-hating Bed Bath & Beyond. Continue reading
“It has been said, ‘Show me a person’s checkbook and I can tell you what he cares about.’” – Social Action, 1964
(Barry Bowen – Trinity Foundation) James MacDonald, the controversial former pastor of Harvest Bible Chapel (HBC), is attempting to restore his reputation. In July, MacDonald posted on his website copies of checks as proof that he reimbursed (HBC) for personal expenses incurred during his time as pastor. One reimbursement check, dated December 28, 2018, was for $27,172.39! Continue reading
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) The announcement that Matt Chandler would be taking a leave of absence following allegedly inappropriate DMs came with little information opening the door to much speculation as to whether or not The Village Church is covering up a deep sin or whether Matt Chandler even sinned at all. However, what is far more clear is that the elders at Village Church were derelict in their duty, and that is while we still do not know whether they are covering up sin or adding to the law of God. And while this is to be mildly expected from a church helmed by a wolf, the precedent that this is expanding upon is quite detrimental to the church. Continue reading
(Lindsay Kornick – Fox News) President Biden took another swipe at supporters of the Second Amendment during his speech in Pennsylvania on Wednesday.
Biden appeared in the battleground state to tout his latest “Safer America” agenda to promote efforts to support law enforcement and deter crime. Although his speech was primarily focused on his policies, Biden later turned his attention towards his political opponents, attacking Republicans for opposing actions on gun control. Continue reading
(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) The Washington, D.C.-based FBI assistant special agent accused by a whistleblower of being the man who scuttled the Hunter Biden laptop investigation and who allegedly hid evidence favoring former President Trump, appears to be out of a job. It’s a start. And from what former President Trump is declaring on his Truth Social account, Assistant Special Agent Tim Thibault also had a hand in the Mar-a-Lago raid. Continue reading
“Well as you know, today is my last message to you as your senior pastor for 43 years,” he said. “It’s been my privilege to love you, pray for you, serve you, encourage you, stand by you…” These words, however, ring hollow as a church that boasts nearly 24 thousand members, it’s unlikely that more than a tiny fraction has ever spoken a word face to face with the man they call their shepherd. — The Dissenter
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) On Sunday, Rick Warren would preach his last sermon as senior pastor of Saddleback Church, concluding an era of church growth pragmatism. Earlier this year, it was announced that Andy Wood would take Warren’s place. The rather tumultuous transition process including multiple allegations against Wood and criticism over him interviewing Mark Driscoll is finally over. Continue reading
Professing Christian Nate Collins is an interesting fellow. He once described himself as a “gay man in a mixed-orientation marriage” and bragged that he enjoys “gay art.” Collins did his dissertation on “Gender Identities” at conservative Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and argued that “virgin” is a secondary gender identity in the scriptures. The president of SBTS is none other than highly regarded evangelical leader Dr. Albert Mohler.
With this background in mind, here’s The Dissenter’s piece: Continue reading
(Eric Mack- Newsmax) Armed antifa members guarded a drag show targeting families in deep-red Texas, raising eyebrows in a conservative district and among conservatives on social media.
“A ‘kid-friendly’ drag show in Texas was guarded by masked ANTIFA guards armed with AR-15s,” Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., tweeted Monday. “Remember, they only want YOUR guns. They want to use theirs to protect their depravity.” Continue reading
