‘I will not be a party to advancing harmful gender ideologies that are ruining lives, causing deaths and contributing to the sterilization and mutilation of gender-confused children.’
(Christian Today) The first person in the US to be legally recognized as non-binary has reverted back to being male.
In a public announcement on his blog, Jamie Shupe said he had returned to his male birth sex and now believed gender identity to be a ‘fraud’. Continue reading
Defrocked Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, first cardinal in history to step down from the College of Cardinals because of sexual abuse allegations.
In a statement issued through his lawyer, Grein also expressed hope that McCarrick “will no longer be able to use the power of Jesus’ church to manipulate families and sexually abuse children.”
(Frances D’Emilio & Nicole Winfield – Associated Press) Pope Francis has defrocked former U.S. Cardinal Theodore McCarrick after Vatican officials found him guilty of soliciting for sex while hearing confession and sexual crimes against minors and adults, the Holy See said Saturday.
McCarrick, 88, is the highest-ranking churchman to be laicized, as the process is called. It means he can no longer celebrate Mass or other sacraments, wear clerical vestments or be addressed by any religious title. Continue reading
The body is a unit, though it is comprised of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ. 13For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free, and we were all given one Spirit to drink. 1 Cor 12:12-13
Is the local church really that necessary for the Christian life? Aren’t there better, more relevant ways to thrive spiritually as a Christian? It is my experience that an increasing number of believers are asking these sorts of questions. Continue reading
It’s well past time to teach your kids the truth with every spare moment you have.
(Judi McLeod – Canada Free Press) Parents with school and university age children can make the Democrat-endorsed ‘Green New Deal’ a prime opportunity for a teachable moment, to turn the tables on socialists running amok in Congress.
Children can be taught at home what they’re never taught in class that socialism kills human souls and human hope, that it has a proven track record of bankrupting entire nations leaving their populations to starve.
Lessons need not be long, but short and to the point, backed up by unfailing repetition.
Stericycle burns bodies of aborted babies (Youtube screenshot)
“Babies who are being murdered in numerous states are continually shipped by Stericycle to the incineration chambers to be burned with other medical garbage. This vivid picture is eerily reminiscent of the Holocaust that took place in Nazi Germany when the bodies of gassed Jews were burned in ovens.”
(Heather Clark – Christian News Network) An investigation out of Georgia has confirmed that the medical waste giant Stericycle is burning the bodies of aborted babies at its North Carolina incineration plant. The mounting evidence of the ongoing operation, which has been characterized as a “modern-day Auschwitz,” further documents the corporate collaboration in the systematic annihilation of unwanted children.

“We must also note that majority Muslim countries are, to borrow a phrase, infamously anti-LGBT. Sometimes, depending on the country, those anti-gay sentiments are expressed through violence and legal persecution.”
(Matt Walsh – Daily Wire) A few days ago, actress Ellen Page publicly blasted actor Chris Pratt for his membership in an “infamously anti lgbtq” church. The comment sparked a week’s worth of backlash against Pratt, who eventually issued a statement denying the charges of homophobia. In reality, Hillsong, the church Pratt attends along with Justin Bieber and some of the Kardashian clan, is far from doctrinally traditionalist. If it’s “infamous” for anything, it’s certainly not social conservatism. When Page attacks Pratt for attending an “infamously anti lgbtq” church, she’s really just attacking him for attending any church at all. Continue reading
Democrat legislators added numerous aid and welfare programs in the 2019 spending bill to support the growing wave of economic migrants, even as they agreed to provide $1,375 billion for construction of a border wall.
(Neil Munroe – Breitbart) The border spending bill for the Department of Homeland Security offers “$192,700,000 for improved medical care, transportation, and consumables to better ensure the health and safety of migrants who are temporarily in U.S. Customs and Protection] custody,” according to a congressional Explanatory Statement of the provisions.

Here is a high-level leader who is “in the know” within the SBC. He is telling us what we have all suspected for a very long time now. And the question is, will anyone do anything about it? There is absolutely no sign whatsoever that anyone in the SBC has the guts that it will take to grab this bull by the horns and do the necessary work to address the problems.
(Ed Dingess – Reformation Charlotte) By now it is clear to most non-SBC evangelicals that the SBC is coming unraveled at its seams. Some might say that the reasons for the SBC’s collapse are complex and numerous. However, I have to say that I don’t really think that’s the case. In the interest of fair disclosure, I am a late-comer to the SBC and a reluctant one at that. … Continue reading
This arrangement “would penalize many Americans not in these protected Christian institutions who [still] believe that we are created male and female…. [It] will impose a nationwide transgender bathroom policy, a nationwide pronoun policy, and a nationwide sex-reassignment health care policy, and the free speech and religious liberty and the rights of countless professionals who find themselves outside the select group of institutions who are exempted will be denied.”
(Peter Jones – truthXchange) In 2018 well-meaning fellow Christians on the boards of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) and the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU), adopted an initiative called Fairness for All. Among notable signers were Philip Graham Ryken, President of Wheaton College and Derek Halvorson, President of Covenant College. … Continue reading
“These politicians that have overreached in our opinion when it comes to reshaping the abortion debate and particularly in Virginia where they’re promoting infanticide.”
(Eno Adeogun – Premiere) US charity Focus on the Family has organised a live ultrasound to be displayed on monitors across Times Square in New York to spread a pro-life message.
Focus on the Family President Jim Daly shared the details of the event planned for 4th May on CBN News’ Faith Nation programme. Continue reading
“Does Greear really believe that these victims are going to find lasting comfort outside the walls of a Bible-believing body of saints? Does he really believe that secular words on a government hotline are going to speak spiritual wisdom into a hurting soul better than the Words of Christ preached in a God-honoring church?”
(Reformation Charlotte) The Southern Baptist president has certainly made a name for himself in recent days. After preaching a sermon calling on Christians to stand up for LGBT rights — since the Bible apparently just “whispers” about the sin of sexual immorality — a report detailing numerous sexual abuse scandals over a period of 20 years in Southern Baptist churches was published. In the wake of this report, JD Greear, in his own words, was “broken over what was revealed.” Continue reading
On February 8 we posted “Mancow Announces ‘James MacDonald Is No Longer A Part Of Harvest Bible Chapel.'” We promised to keep our readers updated on the ongoing James MacDonald saga. News came Wednesday morning that Harvest Bible Church released an online statement announcing the firing of their senior pastor “for engaging in conduct that the Elders believe is contrary and harmful to the best interests of the church.” In their piece, “Harvest Bible Chapel senior pastor James MacDonald has been fired from the church he founded,” Patrick M. O’Connell and Morgan Greene of the Chicago Tribune has the full story:
Page, along with her lover, anti-Trump FBI agent Peter Strzok, has been accused of “orchestrating a coordinated leak strategy aimed at harming the president.”
Over two years after the fact, newly released FBI emails obtained via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request confirm that James Comey’s FBI attempted to work out a quid pro quo deal with the Obama State Department to help minimize the Hillary Clinton private email server scandal just weeks before the 2016 election. Continue reading
“We don’t have anything that would suggest there was collusion”
(Paul Bois – Daily Wire) Democrats hungry for a deus ex machina to liberate them from President Trump are salivating a bit more in light of a recent report that the Senate Intelligence Committee has found zero evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia during the 2016 election.
According to NBC News, the Senate Intelligence Committee will soon be concluding its investigation into the 2016 election and have so far “uncovered no direct evidence of a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia, according to both Democrats and Republicans on the committee.” The investigation has been ongoing for two years, consisting of about 200 interviews. Continue reading
“Evangelicals are so enamored with pop-culture they are eager to jump on any bandwagon that may have an ichthys bumper sticker on the back.”
(JD Hall – Pulpit & Pen) Be careful who you make into a Christian celebrity. This should be the warning found nearly every time evangelicals make a hero out of a Hollywood celebrity who has a public Jesusy moment. In defense of his Hillsong-affiliated church, actor Chris Pratt claims that neither he nor they are anti-LGBTQ. Continue reading
Beth Moore took a selfie with Joyce Meyer while appearing on her show.
“He could have helped himself up until the point where he said I commend my spirit into your hands, at that point he could do nothing for himself anymore. He had become sin, he was no longer the Son of God. He was sin.”
(Geri Ungurean) I remember when I first watched Joyce Meyer after some women at church recommended her. It’s hard to put into words, but I felt that something was wrong. I had no desire to watch or listen to her again.
Then I began to research Ms. Meyer for an article.
I wrote an article called “Joyce Meyer – Apostate Millionaire” in 2015
Here is that article: Continue reading
James Caspian was denied permission to research the phenomenon of detransitioning at Bath Spa University in 2017, and says he has been approached by many patients since who say: “I’m not the other sex. I shouldn’t have done this.”
(The Christian Institute) Four young women who began identifying as men have created a video explaining why they ‘detransitioned’ and have returned to living as women.
Helena, Jesse, Dagny and Chiara set up a new group to help young people understand the dangers of transgenderism. Continue reading
“You will regularly find Lisa Bevere aligned with other false teachers such as Joyce Meyer, Beth Moore, and Christine Caine. She is also tied to the New Apostolic Reformation false teachers Bill Johnson and Kris Vallotton out of Bethel Redding.”
(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) Lisa Bevere and her husband, John, operate a ministry called Messenger International. The ministry exists, according to their website, “to develop uncompromising followers of Christ who transform our world.” Lisa Bevere is a regular conference speaker at highly charismatic church conferences such as Bethel’s Women’s Conference, which lauds her teachings as “authentic, passionate, and witty,” while “weaving profound biblical truths with practical application.” Continue reading
“They left behind more than 700 victims, many of them shunned by their churches, left to themselves to rebuild their lives. Some were urged to forgive their abusers or to get abortions.”
She was 14, she said, when she was first molested by her pastor in Sanger, a tiny prairie town an hour north of Dallas. It was the first of many assaults that Vasquez said destroyed her teenage years and, at 18, left her pregnant by the Southern Baptist pastor, a married man more than a dozen years older. Continue reading
“Of course the most obvious question that comes to mind is why did [Brannon] Howse mask his voice? What was the point? Typically when a person is interviewed, it is his or her voice that may be masked for personal protection. But masking the voice of the interviewer? Odd.”
(Fred Butler – Hip & Thigh) Conspiracy provocateur and vitamin supplement grifter, Brannon Howse, continues his personal campaign of humiliating failure. His latest attempt was a blinding pyre of self-immolation that was wildly entertaining to behold. Continue reading
As previously reported, The Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 841, reads, “The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims. These profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind’s judge on the last day.”
(Heather Clark – Christian News Network) Jorge Bergoglio, also known as “Pope Francis,” and Islamic Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, the grand imam of Al Azhar, met together this week and signed a declaration calling for tolerance and peace among the nations of the world, as well as dialogue between the world’s religions and cultures, which includes cooperation in tackling society’s ills. The move has been questioned by some as being another step toward one world religion. Continue reading
“Sanger’s publication, The Birth Control Review (1917-1928), was founded in 1917 and through the years, she often published articles from socialists and eugenicists such as Ernst Rudin. Rudin (1874-1952) was a psychiatrist who worked as Adolf Hitler’s director of genetic sterilization and founded the Nazi Society for Racial Hygiene, which was Germany’s racial purity program.”
(David Fiorazo) It was Margaret Sanger who laid the foundation for today’s liberal social agenda that has left a legacy of anguish, confusion, pain, and death during Planned Parenthood’s century in business. Their legacy of “birth control” is one of radical feminism, rebellion against God, racism, and eugenics that in recent years has expanded to include abortion on demand and sexual experimentation leading to brokenness, depression, regret, and worse. Continue reading
“Freemasonry claims that they have a secret knowledge that’s made available to them that isn’t available to all people.”
(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) Freemasonry is rampant in the Church, both in the Evangelical Church as well as other denominations. Freemasonry is a brotherhood — a secret society — of men who, as they claim, come together to work for the common good of humanity. In fact, Freemasons actually do a lot of charitable work and there has been a lot of humanitarian good that has come from this group, such as hospitals. Continue reading
“Given our desire to be patient with the process, we elected not to publish last night. However, this morning, Mancow Muller made the following announcement on his radio program. And as has been our practice as of late, we are merely pointing to what another figure is now publicly reporting as fact.”
(The Elephant’s Debt) Seven years ago, The Elephant’s Debt was launched amidst mounting concerns about the theological drift at Harvest Bible Chapel. But what began with apprehensions over Trinitarian formulations and prosperity gospel inclinations quickly morphed into something much larger, and far more troubling. Reports from former elders and pastors began to pour in. Continue reading
“Justices Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elena Kagan and John Roberts chose to grant the injunction against the law, which is identical to that in the case of Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt, which the court struck down in 2016 as creating an “undue burden on abortion access.” Roberts had dissented in that case.”
(Heather Clark – Christian News Network) U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts sided with his liberal colleagues on Thursday in blocking a Louisiana law from going into effect that would have required abortionists in the state to obtain admitting privileges at a local hospital.
