“This clip is representative of how many of these gospel-centered parachurch organizations work. They encourage pastors to focus narrowly on the gospel while these organizations disciple people with bad application that smuggles in leftism and egalitarianism.”
(Protestia) Months after former ERLC President and current Editor of Christianity Today Russell Moore joined forces with David French, who recently came out in support of gay marriage and child genital mutilation, and Curtis Chang, who launched the website ‘Christians and the Vaccine’ where he routinely shamed Christians for refusing to get vaccinated to launch ‘The After Party” a teaching curriculum to educate Christians on how to have a proper view of politics, we have begun to see the rotten fruit of their ministry endeavor.

“There is an uptick in what are known as “detransitioners,” who say that only conservative media outlets seem interested in telling their stories. They say that when they change their minds, they feel abandoned. “I was always a liberal Democrat. Now I feel politically homeless,” one woman whose son changed his mind after coming out as trans and starting hormone therapy said.”
“When Musk talks about how Neuralink will help quadriplegics and people with Parkinson’s, or when Harari waxes poetic about how great subcutaneous implants will be for health care, or when Johnson glories in our imminent AI-dominated future, understand what they are really talking about. Neuralink will not be for the huddled masses, for Harari’s “useless people.” It will be for him and his fellow neopagan elites.”
“Popular sites like Sports Illustrated, Buzzfeed, CNET, and Gannett have all been caught using AI in recent months. The Associated Press admits it uses AI to generate some stories, but it at least lets readers know that AI was used to assist in creating the content.”
“[Iran views} Joe Biden’s serial appeasement as a force multiplier of these perceptions of American weakness. After entering office, the Biden administration begged for a renewed Iran deal from a preening theocracy….”
“It’s a blessing to be brought into the questions that concern people, and to seek to help them with the answers. We need that in the Christian life. Wise King Solomon said: “Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.” The best way to do this is to humbly live in fellowship with Wisdom incarnate — the Lord Jesus Christ who says: “I have counsel and sound wisdom; I have insight; I have strength” (Proverbs 8:14).”
Language warning.
Before we get to Evangelical Dark Web’s report, Religion News Service is reporting that Alistair Begg will no longer be speaking at John MacArthur’s Shepherd’s Conference. According to RNS’s January 31 report:
(Protestia) The International House of Prayer has revealed the full results of the investigation report into the actions of founder and ‘prophet’ Mike Bickle. Prepared by Rosalee McNamara from the law firm Lathrop GPM, she says she was allowed unhindered access to all parties and players involved, except Mike Bickle himself, who declined to be interviewed directly but did respond to written questions, and the primary Jane Doe that Bickle has already admitted into having an inappropriate relationship with before the formation of IHOPKC, on the advice of her lawyer.
One internal research project conducted by Meta in 2021 determined one in three teenage girls struggling with body image “reported that using Instagram made them feel worse.”
“If you just want to reduce overdose deaths, it’s a good plan. It’s worked in other cities. The problem is that it does absolutely nothing to address the problem….And the rest of Portland’s plan is even more useless.”
“This was a peaceful demonstration by entirely peaceable citizens—filled with prayer, hymn-singing, and worship—oriented toward persuading expecting mothers not to abort their babies. Unfortunately, the Biden Department of Justice decided to characterize Paul Vaughn’s peaceful actions as a felony ‘conspiracy against rights,’ to intimidate and punish Paul and other pro-life people and people of faith.”
True, the church may need to repent for certain forms of collective guilt, but the church is made up of people from all races and ethnicities. Christians are called, like the good Samaritan, to offer aid to those in need; still, the Samaritan in the parable bears “no moral guilt for what happened.”
“God’s wrath stored up for believers is not a trumpet call for God to blisteringly wage war against them (as He does against the wicked) but a clarion call for our repentance, an invitation to return to the paths of righteousness, as echoed in Revelation 3:19.”
“Bill O’Reilly has said it’s “almost inconceivable” that Democrats would nominate President Biden because of his dementia. He further said that former First Lady Obama was the only one among Democrats who could beat former President Donald Trump.”
“It is obvious that President Biden does not care about the destruction he has caused. He’s been to the border once. He put Kamala in charge. She’s been to the border once. When was the last time Mr. Biden addressed the crisis in any meaningful way?”
(Stephen Altrogge – The Blazing Center) It is not easy to wait in patience on the Lord. We want what we want right now, with no delay.
“We last wrote about Voskamp after she claimed the cross symbolizes ‘hospitality’ because Jesus has ‘his arms open wide’”
“The days ahead will be tough, but Jesus, our Lord, is in control and “he will win the battle,” as Martin Luther wrote in his great hymn so many years ago. As the author of Psalm 121:2-3 stated: “He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber nor sleep. My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth.”
“Today marks the day the freedom-loving truckers and their supporters got their due, and Justin Trudeau got his too. The courts have ruled that what Justin and his ragtag communist crew did to those innocent patriots was straight-up illegal.”
“I would say there are plenty of reasons to believe this report. Will Biden listen?”
(The Dissenter) In today’s Evangelical landscape, a seismic shift is unfolding, notably influenced by movements like Revoice and Living Out that have influenced Evangelical churches and advocate for a more inclusive approach within the church toward aberrant sexualities. Revoice, which emerged within Presbyterian (PCA) and Southern Baptist circles, promotes a perspective on “same-sex attraction” that is intertwined with contemporary pop psychology and personal experience rather than Scripture.
“The Revoice organization is working behind the scenes in more ways than it appears…”
