American corporate-funded Chinese Communism

“In order for Communist China to dominate the world, any chance of a Republican comeback on the national stage must be nipped in the bud. The MLB has, in effect, become an adjunct of the Chinese Communist Party. Other corporations have followed this trend. Marxists see this as a major development in America’s transition to socialism and communism.”

(Cliff Kincaid – Renew America)  It seems strange to some that Major League Baseball (MLB) pulled its All-Star game out of Atlanta, to punish Georgia for its new voter ID law, but signed a deal with a Chinese company for rights to broadcast MLB games…. Continue reading

Wokeness is a Weapon of Privilege

“The woke revolution is not a grassroots movement. It is powered by a well-connected and guilt-ridden elite. Yet the religion of wokeness assumes that these high priests deserve exemptions. Their wealth, credentials, contacts and power ensure none are ever subject to the consequences of their own sermons.”

(Victor Davis Hanson – PJ Media)  Ed Bastian made $17 million in 2019 as chief executive officer of Delta Airlines, Georgia’s largest employer. Bastian just blasted Georgia’s new voting law. He thinks it is racist to require the same sort of ID to vote that Delta requires for its passengers to check in. Continue reading

Breaking! Police and Security Put up Chain-link Fence Around Gracelife Church

(Protestia)  In a completely unprecedented move, police and security arrived on site in the middle of the night and put up a chain and wire fence around Gracelife Church in Edmonton, Alberta, home of previously imprisoned Pastor James Coates, in order to keep them out and prevent them from gathering for further services until they comply with shutdown restrictions.

Earlier this morning, Alberta Health Services issued a statement announcing it has “physically closed GraceLife Church and has prevented access to the building until GLC can demonstrate the ability to comply with Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health’s restrictions.” Continue reading

‘Enough!’– Republicans Warn of ‘Creeping Fascism’ If We Don’t ‘Resist’ the Vaccine Passport

“The bill also instructs the Senate to change the mandatory vaccine laws enshrined in Jacobson v Massachusetts, which allows states to use police power against the unvaccinated.”

(Victoria Taft – PJ Media)  Senator Rand Paul is the latest Republican to call for “resistance” to plans by the Biden Administration to institute a vaccine passport. Resisting the idea of a vaccine passport to determine an American citizen’s freedom of movement has gained traction in the media because of how easily it could slip into becoming something akin to the Chinese government’s Social Credit Score scheme. Now the Republican lawmakers are cottoning on. Continue reading

Preparing Your Children for the Next Sexual Revolution

“One of the greatest threats to a biblical worldview today is the belief in Evolution. There are even so-called Christian leaders–like Tim Keller–who push this worldview, and it’s very dangerous. Evolution is a form of “gateway drug” to the sexual revolution. Why? Because, if we merely evolved from animals, apes, then why is it morally wrong to act like them?” 

(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte)  Societies have seen sexual revolutions repeatedly all throughout history. From the Scriptures, we see that it was a type of sexual revolution that caused God to destroy the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and in Romans 1, Paul speaks of the unbelieving nations as those who’ve been given over to a form of sexual revolution as a judgment of God. Continue reading

Republicans Must Take On ‘Woke Corporations’ if They Want to Defeat The Globalist American Empire

“There is nothing extreme about the Georgia election reform bill. It bans the pseudo-bribery of voters by giving free food and drinks to those who arrive at polling stations. It cuts the state’s exhausting 9-week runoff period down to a more reasonable four weeks. And most importantly, the bill requires photo ID for voting absentee by mail, which doesn’t make fraud impossible but does make it substantially more burdensome to commit.”

(Revolver)  They came so close. But like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football, you just knew they were going to blow it.

On the final day of the 2021 legislative session, the Georgia House passed legislation that would revoke major tax exemption for Delta Airlines, after the company intervened to protest the state’s new election law…. Continue reading

Birds of a Feather: Karen Swallow Prior Defends Beth Moore, Slanders the Church

“False teachers like Beth Moore and Karen Swallow Prior for too long have ignored the Word of God’s clear proclamations regarding men and women in the church (and by extension the family), and have led the Southern Baptist Convention downhill to the point where the denomination may not be salvageable.”

(Protestia)  In an op-ed published at Religion News Service, SEBTS professor, notorious functional egalitarian, Karen Swallow Prior, blamed the Southern Baptist Convention (her denomination) for “leaving women to fend for themselves” and basically forcing Beth Moore to leave rather than see Moore’s ministerial ambitions stifled. Continue reading

Comrade Biden

“The horrifying truth is Democrats want the federal government to run everything; to provide cradle-to-grave entitlements. Free child care, elder care, health care, community college, food, housing, job and wage guarantees.”

(Bill O’Reilly)  Okay, now it’s getting serious.  No more fooling around with this capitalism business.  Nope, old Joe Biden has gone full socialist.  Viva Fidel!  Viva Venezuela! Che, we miss you!

Public Health Professor Reveals The Reason For The Urgency of the Vaccination Push – Pesky States Reopening Creates a ‘Small Window’ of Opportunity to Push the Vaccine

(The Last Refuge)  There is so much in this soundbite from Dr Leana Wen (Public Health Policy, George Washington University) it is difficult to encapsulate.

When they show you who they are, believe them.  In this soundbite Dr. Wen is apoplectic that people might realize there is no need for a vaccination because everything is open and there is no crisis.   She frets that American people will enjoy their freedoms without vaccination.  Just watch and listen to the priority in her soundbite. Continue reading

John MacArthur Responds to Julie Roys’ Libelous Claims in Lawsuit Against Gavin Newsom

“Ms. Roys repeats a falsehood that she previously mentioned in her blog, namely that Grace Community Church was having a COVID-19 outbreak and pressuring staff and congregants to not report the cases to the County Department of Public Health. This claim is entirely false.” 

(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) Julie Roys, a yellow journalist who is on a self-proclaimed mission to destroy John MacArthur, has been ceaselessly attacking MacArthur on her website, the Roys Report…. Continue reading

Disgraced ‘60 Minutes’ Deceptively (and Maliciously) Edits Ron DeSantis Video

Ah, but that was obviously the disgraced fake news magazine’s plan, because what the fake news magazine didn’t want its gullible viewers to see was the most crucial part of the exchange — DeSantis’ full and comprehensive answer.

(John Nolte – Breitbart)  CBS News’ disgraced news magazine 60 Minutes has been caught maliciously editing comments made by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) about a fake “pay for play” conspiracy theory, which fake media outlets like 60 Minutes are trying to fabricate out of thin air. Continue reading

Revoice Gay-Straight Friends Planning a Life Together

“This rationale brings up questions that churches have not had to consider before. Why is it OK for a male youth director to describe another man repeatedly as cute but not OK for a male youth director to say this about another woman? Is it OK for a male youth director to describe the Lord Jesus Christ as cute?”

(Shawn Mathis – Pastor Mathis.com) Revoice rocked the Reformed world in 2018. They introduced the first coming-out event that began normalizing homosexuality in the church. In 2020, they introduced the first coming-out of a gay-straight couple.

You read that right. Couple. Is that the right word? Continue reading

Christianity Today Says Jesus Taught us How to ‘Doubt Faithfully,’ We’re Saved by His Doubts

“This view of God is actually a perversion that is found throughout the seeker-sensitive prosperity gospel movement. Steven Furtick pushes the same idea of “faithful doubting.” This demotes Jesus to one who is man only at times, rather than God and man simultaneously…”

(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte)  If Christian leaders were faithful, publications like Christianity Today and The Gospel Coalition would cease to exist. At least, they would cease to identify as Christian publications. In a recent article, Christianity Today says that Jesus came to Earth to teach us how to “doubt faithfully,” whatever that means, and that “somehow,” we too are saved by his doubts. Continue reading

Gaslighting: How Leftist Psychopaths Demonize And Demoralize Their Opposition

“The race baiting used by leftists the past several years is a prime example of gaslighting – Telling people they are responsible for evils they had nothing to do with and that are completely unrelated to them, then demanding they declare submission and loyalty to an ideology that seeks to enslave them as a means to wash away sins they were never guilty of.”

(Brandon Smith – Alt-Market)  We have all heard this time honored cautionary mantra: “All governments lie”. It’s not a theory, it is a fact that history has proven time after time. I would only expand on the rule and say this: All governments, all corporations, all corporate media, all think tanks, and all corporate funded activist groups lie. There is a reason why public trust is at all time lows for the majority of these organizations, and it’s not because they are managed by good and honest people. Continue reading

Voddie Baucham suffers recovery setback, will have coronary bypass surgery Saturday

(Leonardo Blair – The Christian Post)  Weeks after undergoing a surgical procedure to treat his heart failure at the Mayo Clinic in Florida with high hopes of making a “full recovery,’ prominent Southern Baptist preacher Voddie Baucham Jr. has suffered a setback and is now set to undergo coronary bypass surgery Saturday, The Christian Post has learned.

Baucham, who currently serves as dean of theology at African Christian University in Zambia and a board member of Founders Ministries, was set to conduct a series of interviews, including one with CP, in the coming days to promote his new book, Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism’s Looming Catastrophe, set for release next Tuesday.

This Russiagate FBI Analyst Couldn’t Verify Anything In The Steele Dossier Yet Said Nothing For Years

As for Steele’s reliability as an FBI informant, the analyst merely “speculated” that his prior reporting was sound and did not see a need to “dig into” his handler’s case file, which showed that past tips from Steele had gone uncorroborated and were never used in court. 

(Paul Sperry – The Federalist)  For the past four years, Democrats and the Washington media have suspended disbelief about the Steele dossier’s credibility by arguing that some Russia allegations against Donald Trump and his advisers have been corroborated and therefore the most explosive charges may also be true. But recently declassified secret testimony by the FBI official in charge of corroborating the dossier blows up that narrative. Continue reading

Charismatic Prophetess Uses Anointed Staff to ‘Call Forth’ Donald Trump

“This is the fruit of run-of-the-mill charismatic culture. Someone like Kat Kerr isn’t an oddity or an outsider within this group. She’s not a wild-eyed loon, but rather a respected seer and revelatory. She is not a bug, but rather is a feature.”

(Protestia)  In an act reminiscent of Jesus’ calling Lazarus forth from the grave, our favorite pink-haired prophetess Kat Kerr took to Facebook to resurrect another man. Using language that ought to make any Christian extremely uncomfortable and reaching for a bible she calls former President Donald Trump to “come forth” and to take up his destiny, which presumably involves a military coup and taking over from Joe Biden. Continue reading

The ‘Insurrection’ Probe Is Falling Apart

“Despite heavy-handed threats and braggadocio about pending “sedition” cases, nearly three months later, the Justice Department has nothing even close to this boast—and their mouthpieces in the media are getting nervous.”

(Julie Kelly – American Greatness)   He is known as the “zip tie guy.” In one of the most iconic photographs of the January 6 Capitol melee, Eric Munchel, wearing tactical gear, is seen holding up a fistful of zip ties in the Senate gallery. Munchel, the media quickly concluded, brought the flex cuffs to arrest lawmakers attempting to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election. The woman photographed with him later was identified as his mother, Lisa Eisenhart. Continue reading
