“How many of these “Christians” were nominally so because of their cultural upbringing? If they grew into early adulthood and left the faith, did they ever really believe in the first place? Are we simply witnessing the ripples of a rock that sank long ago?”
(Thomas Gallatin – The Patriot Post) A recent Pew Research Center study estimates based on various scenarios that Christians in America will become a minority in the next two to five decades. Since the 1990s, the study notes, the number of Americans leaving Christianity has been accelerating, as the number of those identifying as nonreligious or “nones” has ballooned over the last couple decades.

(Spencer Brown – Townhall) A new study conducted by public health researchers at the University of North Carolina and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services uncovered new information on the efficacy of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine in young people age 5 to 11. The research, funded in part by a grant from the National Institutes of Health, found that against the omicron variant of COVID-19, children in the study group ended up seeing negative — yes, negative — effectiveness some 20 weeks after being vaccinated after peaking between 60 and 70 percent effectiveness.
“Unrepentant homosexuality is evidence that God has given one over to the lusts of their hearts.”
(Capstone Report) Woke pastors and theologians not held accountable for past promotion of godless ideologies by key leaders of the Reformed movement.
“Tribalism is infectious and poisonous, and it leaves a wake of division in its path. It destroys the peace and purity of the church and produces false professions of faith as well as unstable Christians held captive to destructive sin patterns. Tribalism falsifies the blood of Christ.”
“The officials rejected all treatment options, claiming only a vaccine could save us.”
“The conference, ironically named “No Limits,” put a heavy focus on the controversial gender theory that is leading to the mutilation of healthy kids by money-hungry surgeons. Many of these kids are left with a lifetime of suffering from botched procedures and the crippling effects of puberty blockers, like bone deterioration and stunted growth….”
“Stacy Smith, founder of the AII, said the overturning of Roe v. Wade prompted them to create the new grant.”
(Protestia) Albert Mohler has gone off on Christians who choose to vote for Democrats in the coming election, or do not vote at all, calling anyone who does so ‘unfaithful; and ‘voting wrongly’. He made these comments at the 2022 ‘Pray, Vote, Stand Summit’ this past week, setting off a firestorm of critiques from the usual suspects.
“The FBI administrators come up with a profile of who they think a white supremacist might be, and then they tell agents to go investigate them without evidence of a crime. For example, if they fly a Gadsen flag, have lots of guns, and home-school their children, they might be a white supremacists.”
Baylor launched a website on sexuality last week which appears to take a softening stance on homosexuality. The website states that it is “committed to providing a caring, loving and supportive community for students in all aspects of their lives, including the development of their sexuality.“
“The real question that Watkin and Keller should be asking is, “Why should Christians be engaged in the practice of syncretizing a Biblical worldview with the many godless ideologies of the world.” Believers have a duty to answer the world’s questions through the sufficient words of scripture, but Christians should never expect that scripture will satisfy the carnal desires of a fallen world that is bent against God.”
“For the first time in my entire career, I was not able to be a doctor,” Dr. Paul Marik, the most published intensive care specialist in the world, testified in the U.S. Senate. “I had to stand by idly … watching these people [my patients] die.”
(Miranda Divine – New York Post) Facebook has been spying on the private messages and data of American users and
More than likely, the move will be written off by the media, social, and political elites as a stunt. But DeSantis and Abbott are not staging stunts. They are staging demonstrations. Not demonstrations as in “Let’s burn down this convenience store in the name of social justice,” but demonstrations as in “Do you see what other people in the nation are dealing with because of your policies and positions?”
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) Rochelle Walensky, the Director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), acknowledged publicly that the agency gave false information about its COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring.
You must watch the short video to the end so you will see this child’s parents.
“The Cheney Jan. 6 committee went on a witch hunt and ignored all of this evidence that showed serious intelligence failures under Nancy Pelosi’s watch. Pelosi is responsible for Capitol security.”
“Sexual immorality was the last and final, and clearly the most egregious form of rebellion against God, that served not only as the catalyst to God’s judgment but as part of the judgment itself. To summarize the judgment presented in Romans 1, rebellion against God begins to manifest in seemingly insignificant ways, namely, the refusal to honor and acknowledge Him.”
“If Twitter chose to let #LGBWithoutTheT trend for me, it trended for everyone. I suspect someone above the Twitter brass encouraged them to do just that. With the elections just two months away, the increasingly noisy and oppressive trans movement was becoming too much of a political liability.”
“Why should Christians be concerned that the Nashville Statement is under attack by a major Revoice leader? You may think Revoice is a distant concern or that the Nashville Statement is not the best or most robust response to the issues facing the church in the 21st century. But let’s not miss the forest for the trees—there is something sinister at work here that Christians need to see.”
A year ago, I would have thought this scenario impossibly absurd. I also never thought an ex–U.S. president’s home could be raided by the FBI, or a current president could make such a hateful, incendiary, and shall I say “semi-fascist” speech.
We went mad because we easily could. And we could, not because we were poor and oppressed, but because we were rich and bored.
(Jared C. Wilson – For the Church) A couple of years ago, when I was doing a round of interviews for my book
