Dealing with Critical Race Theory at the SBC Convention

(Denny Burk) I am pre-registered as a messenger from my church to the Southern Baptist Convention in Nashville next month. Because of the aftermath of 2019’s infamous “Resolution 9,” one of the most important items of business before the Convention will no doubt be a resolution relating to Critical Race Theory (CRT). I am not a prophet nor the son of a prophet. So I could be wildly off in this prediction, but I anticipate that we won’t leave Nashville without a strong resolution against Critical Race Theory.

The Clintons, the Obamas, Gavin Newsom became multimillionaires by monetizing their political careers through lucrative insider networking

“Our elites are anti-democratic. They talk of forcing change down the throats of scared citizens by federal or state edicts, executive orders, court decisions, or bureaucratic new directives. Neither multimillionaires Obama, Newsom, and Clinton nor the Great Resetters want to put up their agendas for discussion and votes before the people and their elected legislative representatives.

Never Let a Plague Go To Waste By Victor Davis Hanson – During America’s first-ever national lockdown, thousands of unelected bureaucrats, as well as federal and state governments, assumed enormous powers not usually accorded them. Continue reading

Danish Media Outlet Discovers Obama NSA Was Spying On Ally Leaders

(OAN Newsroom)  According to new revelations from a Danish media outlet, the U.S. National Security Agency under the Barack Obama administration was using resources provided by Denmark’s intelligence agency to spy on European politicians. The investigation and subsequent news, known as the Dunhammer Report, followed details laid out in Edward Snowden’s Whistleblowing episode in which he uncovered the NSA’s abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act courts to spy on private citizens.

Fauci Was Told Early on That Wuhan Coronavirus Looked ‘Engineered’

“On April 18, 2020, three months after being told the virus looked engineered, Fauci told reporters at the White House, unequivocally, it didn’t come from a lab. Most of the media then reported his remarks as “debunking” a conspiracy theory.” 

(Katie Pavlich – Townhall)  New emails obtained by Buzzfeed through a Freedom of Information Act show National Institute of Health Director Dr. Anthony Fauci was told by NIH scientist Kristian Andersen on January 31, 2020 that Wuhan coronavirus looked “potentially engineered.” In other words, it was manipulated in a lab through gain of function research.

Protecting Joe and deceiving the American people

“Today we have a different side to media corruption – the protection of Joe Biden. Because the national press backed him to an absurd degree in the election, they are now in his pocket as he proceeds to run the country.”

(Bill O’Reilly) While researching Al Capone’s criminal enterprise in Chicago during prohibition for my book “Killing the Mob,” we came across evidence of bribes paid to newspaper reporters in the Windy City. Capone shrewdly corrupted the local press to portray him as a man of the people who supported a myriad of charities.  In truth, the mobster was a psychopath who’s brutal behavior set a template for the mob to this day.

‘It Will be the End of Freedom’: Oregon Gov. Requires Proof of COVID Vaccinations to Enter Churches, Businesses

“Digital health or vaccine passports along with tracking and tracing apps present a serious threat to freedom.”

(Andrea Morris – Faithwire)  As COVID-19 vaccinations have become more widely available, a debate is heating up over the push for vaccine verification in order for people to enter businesses or churches without a mask on.

On May 18, the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) announced new mask guidelines for people fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Now, Gov. Kate Brown (D) is requiring that people show proof of their COVID shots either digitally or on paper. Continue reading

Barack Obama: Joe Biden ‘Finishing the Job’ with My Former Staff’

(Charlie Spiering – Breitbart)  President Barack Obama said in an interview published Tuesday his former Vice President Joe Biden was finishing the work he began to redistribute wealth through programs like Obamacare.

“I think that what we’re seeing now, is Joe and the administration are essentially finishing the job,” he said in an interview with New York Times columnist Ezra Klein. “And I think it’ll be an interesting test. Ninety percent of the folks who were there in my administration, they are continuing and building on the policies we talked about…” Continue reading

Sex abuse allegations by Carl Lentz’s former nanny put spotlight on Hillsong culture

(Roxanne Stone – Religion News Service)  A former Hillsong NYC staff member has come forward with allegations that the megachurch’s former pastor Carl Lentz subjected her to “bullying, abuse of power and sexual abuse” over the course of seven years as she worked as a nanny in Lentz’s home.

“I felt trapped and silenced. I also felt so ashamed and I had been told not to say anything or tell anyone,” Leona Kimes, 37, told Religion News Service via email Sunday (May 30). Continue reading

The Chosen TV Series – An Unholy Alliance With Mormons

The Chosen is a popular series, with many claiming that the series has enabled them to relate to Jesus, and that it’s made the scriptures “come alive.” Where scripture is silent regarding certain events, or the characters of Jesus and his disciples, Jenkins has used his imagination to fill the gaps. Some find the mixture of facts and fiction in the series heartwarming and entertaining, but we don’t need warm and fuzzy feelings or speculation to know the Christ of the scriptures. We need the scriptures. If you’re a fan of the series, put your emotions aside and consider the facts presented in this article. – Rick Becker, Famine In The Land Continue reading

BYE, BYE, BIBI? Netanyahu out? New government is in the works

(Nicole Jansezian – All Israel News)  Political earthquake in Israel tonight as Naftali Bennett agrees to form unity government with opposition leader Yair Lapid and the next 48 hours are crucial. If their deal solidifies, we would be entering the post-Netanyahu era.

Either way, uncharted waters are ahead.

Bennett, head of Yamina, has officially announced that he will attempt to form a national unity government with Yair Lapid. In a speech tonight he said that he turned over every stone to try to form a right-wing government. Continue reading

Crenshaw, Cotton Fight Back Against Threat of Woke in Military

Crenshaw, currently still allowed on Twitter, tweeted earlier, “Enough is enough. We won’t let our military fall to woke ideology. We have just launched a whistleblower webpage where you can submit your story. Your complaint will be legally protected, and go to my office and @SenTomCotton.”

(Kevin Downey JR – PJ Media)  Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and Rep. Crenshaw (R-Texas) have launched a whisteblower site to combat wokeism in the military, and it’s not a moment too soon. Continue reading

The New Evangelical False Gospel of Unity

“Many of these Pagans masquerade as true believers; they speak Christian language and affirming certain Christian orthodoxies (2 Corinthians 11:13). Many charismatics such as the New Apostolic Reformation, Roman Catholics, and religious cults fall into this category. On the surface, they look like Christians. They hold to some Christian morals and values. They have a form of godliness, but deny its power (2 Timothy 3:5). When you truly examine their beliefs, you see that they have abandoned the truth and hold to damning doctrines of demons (1 Timothy 4:1).” 

(Reformation Charlotte)  There tends to be a great amount of resentment towards discerning believers who are quick to confront other Christians who are in sin or even false believers who are masquerading as Christians…. Continue reading

Queer Is In, Christian Is Out – Boom In LGBT Content For Children

(Jonathan Van Maren – LifeSiteNews) — The boom in LGBT content for children has continued, with yet another classic getting a Pride makeover. According to Christianity Daily, the fairytale Cinderella will be coming to Amazon Prime in September with a “LGBTQ sexless godmother,” played, unsurprisingly, by male homosexual Billy Porter. Porter told CBS that the new version will be “a classic fairytale for a new generation.”

The BBC is also plugging a new children’s book called My Daddies, the story of a motherless little girl adopted by two men…. Continue reading

Biden Uses His Budget to Force His Abortion Agenda on Taxpayers

(Tyler O’Neil – PJ Media)  President Joe Biden released his proposed budget for fiscal year 2022 on Friday, and the whopping $6 trillion budget has a stunning omission. The Hyde Amendment, which has prevented taxpayer dollars from directly funding abortion for decades, was nowhere to be found. During the 2020 campaign, Biden reversed his decades-long support for the Hyde Amendment, and the budget formalized that move.

“Budgets are a statement of values. President Biden’s budget proposes to end the harmful Hyde Amendment — making clear that federal law should support everyone’s ability to access health care, including safe, legal, abortion, in this country,” Planned Parenthood Action declared on Twitter. Continue reading

The Church in the 21st Century: The Rise of the New Left

(Lynn & Sarah Leslie – Herescope)  In a chapter titled “The Threat of Silence,” Francis Schaeffer predicted the rise of a New Left, which would exhibit its own brand of Dominionism (he called it totalitarianism) over free speech. We now recognize this as Cancel Culture. Schaeffer was prescient in the following descriptions of the times:

Here we are, then, the historic, Bible-believing Christian minority…. As the New Left and the anarchists come forward, more chaos will result. And as more and more chaos comes, the majority of the Silent Majority will increasingly tend to strike back. To do so, they will increasingly accept the Establishment elite. Continue reading

Ravi Zacharias’ Daughter, RZIM CEO, Admits she Made Serious Errors as she ‘Fully Trusted’ her Father

(Chantalle Edmonds – Premier Christian News) Sarah Davis, CEO of RZIM, the apologetics ministry founded by Ravi Zacharias, has apologized for not initially believing the sexual abuse victims of her late father saying she made “serious errors that only furthered deep wounds.”

Speaking in a video message shared on RZIM’s Facebook page, Davis spoke about her involvement in her father’s ministry saying at the outset it wasn’t something she intended to become part of despite her “deep admiration and love for my father.” Continue reading

BLM Co-Founder Patrisse Cullors Steps Down From BLM With Four Mansions, Possibly a 5th, to Pursue a Marxist Life

(Kevin Downey Jr – PJ Media)  BLM co-founder, mega-millionaire Marxist, race-baiter, and mansion-collector Patrisse Cullors is stepping down from BLM amidst a financial scandal. It seems Cullors has made enough money off the bodies of dead black men. She told AP it’s time to focus on her second book and her TV deal with Warner Brothers.

Cullors says her leaving BLM has been planned for about a year and has nothing to do with the New York Post story regarding her four mansions, all in white neighborhoods, and a fifth home she is looking at in the Bahamas, in the same luxury resort as Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods….

Pandemic craziness fueled by stupidity, fear and greed

(Marilyn Singleton – WND)  One of Albert Einstein’s many aphorisms, “three great forces rule the world: stupidity, fear and greed,” is particularly apt in the COVID-19 era.

Our government’s duty is to warn the public of a possible pandemic and recommend precautions. However, the initial COVID tactic was to strike fear into our hearts and minds. The constant display of COVID “cases” on the nightly news suggested certain death awaited those who ventured out of their homes. Continue reading

Will the Madness of 2020 Last?

“Before 2020, the American people tired of the media farces surrounding such events as the Duke lacrosse team, the lies about the Covington kids, and Jussie Smollett’s hoax about being attacked by white racists. Will they return to their earlier skepticism about media hype when it increasingly seems like the media and the government mostly lied when denying the possibility that the coronavirus leaked from a Wuhan lab engaged in “gain-of-function” engineering of dangerous viruses?” 

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness)  The COVID-19 pandemic is ending with mass vaccinations. So is the national quarantine. The rioting, looting and arson that began in the summer of 2020 is finally sputtering out. Continue reading

Pope Calls for ‘Ecological Spirituality’ to care for ‘Mother Earth’

Like some grotesque morphing of Roman Catholicism, the New Apostolic Reformation’s Seven-Mountain Mandate, and the Democrats’ Green New Deal, Francis reveals that there are seven sectors of the church that need to be pulling together. These are “parishes and dioceses – schools and universities – hospitals – businesses and farms – organizations, groups and movements – religious institutes.”

(Protestia)  The capitalism-hating, socialism-loving Vicar of the Roman Catholic Church has come up with a seven-year plan to greenify the world and heal “Mother Earth” on account of the “wounds that we cause by our predatory attitude, which makes us feel that we are masters of the planet and its resources,” in order to “inaugurate a lifestyle and a society that is finally eco-sustainable.” Continue reading

Systemic Marxism: Biden Admin Allows BLM flags to Fly on Federal Buildings

“Despite the documented actions of BLM protestors during the riots of 2020, and despite the New York Times reporting on their organization’s declining popularity with American voters, our federal  government has nonetheless decided to endorse and promote an organization with admitted Marxist roots as one having ties to our official foreign offices.”

(Kevin Downey Jr – PJ Media)  The war on police has been brutal and now it’s insulting. In a time when a pro-2nd Amendment police captain was fired for supporting constitutional carry legislature, a Virginia police lieutenant was fired for donating to Kyle Rittenhouse’s defense fund, and a DEA agent was fired for being in the capital, (not the capitol), on January 6th, the State Department is giving the thumbs up to fly the BLM flag. Continue reading

Media Pathetically Creates a Biden We All Know Isn’t There

“Imagine this slow-thinking, barely coherent president in charge during a crisis that requires quick decision-making and clear communication. You can bet our enemies are doing just that right now.”

(Steven Kruiser – PJ Media)  My entry into the world of writing about conservative politics more than twenty years ago was prompted by a most righteous indignation about liberal media bias. If a time when that bias wasn’t awful existed, no one alive today is old enough to remember it. Continue reading
