(The Dissenter) In a world awash with the deceptive allure of secular progressivism, a sinister myth has crept into the hearts of many, even within the sacred confines of the Church. It’s the poisoned idea that Jesus Christ, the Son of God and Savior of humanity, was an advocate for modern socialism or government-enforced wealth redistribution programs. Far from a benign misunderstanding, this falsehood is a rotten corpse dressed in religious garb, wielded by a large and growing portion of the Evangelical Church co-opted by leftist ideologues to pervert the true Gospel and create a false Christ.

Are Lockdowns Coming Back? These Fauci Comments Are Fueling Suspicions
“If you have a vaccine available, you might want to lock down temporarily so you can get everybody vaccinated.”
(Leah Barkoukis – Townhall) Anthony Fauci’s recent comments during a Wayne State University event have some concerned that a lockdown 2.0 could be on the horizon, despite the social, emotional, financial, and educational toll it took on children, adults, and society at large. Continue reading
The Rainbow Flag Conquered America Right Under the Noses of the Sleeping Churches
“What a magical thing that rainbow flag has become. It even allows pornography to be handed out in schools and public libraries to little kids. It even allows young children to be mentally abused and physically mutilated — legally, by so-called “doctors,” for profit.”
(Rob Pue – News With Views) On June 17th, Capitol Square in Madison, Wisconsin was packed with people. It was the usual crowd shopping at the Farmer’s Market, but those shoppers were overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of people who came to watch — or participate in — the annual “Naked Bike Ride.” Continue reading
You Get What You Pay For
(Bill O’Reilly) Women are being “erased” in Afghanistan. So says a recent article on the Daily Chatter website, our foreign news partner.
The Taliban retook the country two years ago this week after the botched U.S. withdrawal by the Biden administration. Today, Afghan women cannot be seen in public without a male escort, are denied education, and have absolutely no rights whatsoever.
That’s terrible, of course, but the blame lies with the Afghan people themselves, who flat-out refused to fight for their own freedom…. Continue reading
Victor Davis Hanson: California’s Headed for ‘Oblivion’
“This is what the Progressives want for all of us. It is what they are doing in every city and now suburban and rural areas.”
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) During an interview with California Insider, Victor Davis Hanson was asked where California was headed. Without hesitation, he said, it is “headed to oblivion.” He explained that people are leaving California to go to hell-hot Texas or desert Nevada, that have become paradises in their minds. We took paradise and turned it into hell, so they’re leaving. Continue reading
Apostasy of the Modern Church and the Immutable Righteousness of God
“The Bible does not explicitly state how or when God will judge the American Church, but it’s clear from Scripture that nothing is off the table. The shadows are lengthening, and the warnings continue to resonate through the pages of Scripture.”
(The Dissenter) In an era marked by uncertainty and a drift away from biblical truth, the warnings and judgments found in the pages of Scripture serve as grave reminders to us. These historical accounts are not merely tales of a bygone era but resounding calls to fidelity and obedience. They beckon us to recognize the danger of departing from the foundational teachings of the faith…. Continue reading
Goal in 14 US Cities: Ban Meat, Dairy, Private Cars by 2030
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) While the Left claims they support the middle class, they are destroying it. The wealthy will survive. There will be just enough of everything for them. There is no better proof than that provided by the C40. The video by Mr. Vobes gives a great summary of what it is.
“By 2030, the average impact of urban consumption in C40 cities must decrease by 50%,” says the C40 report. Continue reading
Biden Administration to Urge All Americans: Get a Coronavirus Booster Shot Now
(Simon Kent – Breitbart) All Americans will be urged by the Biden administration to get a coronavirus booster shot this autumn ahead of what it claims is a new wave of infections, a White House official said Sunday.
Reuters reports the official said while the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports an increase in infections and hospital admissions from the virus, overall levels remain low, however caution is urged. Continue reading
Christians Have A Choice To Make: Paul Of Tarsus Or Taurus The Bull. Which Will It Be?
By Marsha West
Profanity, pornography, programs laced with filth in movies and on cable assail us non-stop. Most people are offended by Hollywood’s obsession with polluting the culture. It is no secret that beginning with the tumultuous 1960s, Americans have become little more than trash receptacles for Hollywood’s filth.
While Hollywood goes about corrupting the culture through films, another more subtle force has infiltrated society and successfully corrupted young and old alike. You’ve probably guessed that I’m referring to “spirituality.” I’m not talking about organized religions such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam or Eastern religions.
I’m not even talking about bygone days when ancients like me referred to spirituality as New Age, New Age mysticism, or New Thought, “unifying mind-body-spirit.” Today, for many sojourners, spirituality is the quest for meaning and wholeness, a connection to a higher power, what some deem a “universal mind” or consciousness we can tap into.
For decades this Eastern-influenced moral relativistic metaphysical thought system has spread worldwide like gangrene. I think it’s safe to say that pretty much everyone has been influenced by Eastern mysticism in one way or another.
For more than 50 years now the New Age movement has reared its ugly head in the visible Church in ways you may find surprising. Inside many churches, shepherds have the sheep partaking in what Scripture deems sorcery, i.e. the magic arts, even though Scripture clearly teaches that God hates the ways of pagan cultures. In the Old Testament those who dabbled in practices that were expressly forbidden by The Creator were often destroyed by Him — every man woman and child. Gulp.
If you’re thinking “My God wouldn’t do that,” you’d be wrong. Think: The worldwide flood where God destroyed all living things that’s found in the book of Genesis. Continue reading

Ohio Right to Life fires Christian after Republican lawmaker blasts her for sharing the gospel
(Ben Zeisloft – The Sentinel) Ohio Right to Life dismissed communications director Elizabeth Marbach after a Republican congressman, whose wife sits on the entity’s board, publicly rebuked her for sharing the gospel on social media.
Marbach said in exclusive comments to The Sentinel that she “absolutely” does not regret making the post because “now millions have read the gospel message.”
Marbach, a former Trump campaign and Ohio Republican Party staff member, tweeted on Tuesday that “there’s no hope for any of us outside of having faith in Jesus Christ alone.”… Continue reading
The Real King Jesus vs The Modern False Jesus
(The Dissenter) The world today is flooded with distorted depictions and representations of Jesus Christ. In a quest for relevancy and appeal, modern culture, and even most modern churches, have twisted the figure of Jesus into something more palatable, more in line with human desires and ideologies. This false Jesus is worshiped and revered by most of the world, yet he bears little resemblance to the true savior and king, Jesus Christ, revealed to us in the Holy Scriptures.
This false Jesus is a mere shadow, stripped of divine majesty and eternal significance. So who is this real Jesus, son of God and man, that every knee will bow to and every tongue will confess?… Continue reading
PCUSA Pastor Says Jesus Would Have Been an ‘Abortion Doula’ + ‘Blessed Are Those Who End Their Pregnancies’
Todd then adapts the Beatitudes into a grotesque pro-choice mantra, which she repeats several times throughout this sermon. “If Jesus were giving his sermon today, he might also have said, ‘Blessed are those who end pregnancies, for they will be known for their loving kindness.”
(Protestia) Rebecca Todd Peters is a professor, author, and Presbyterian Church (USA) ‘Pastor.’ She has been active denominationally and ecumenically for over twenty-five years and represents the PCUSA as a member of the Faith and Order Standing Commission of the World Council of Churches….

Georgia Lawmaker Calls for Emergency Meeting to Impeach Fani Willis
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) A Republican with courage, Georgia State Senator Colton Moore called for an emergency special session to review a proposal to impeach District Attorney Fani Willis. He accuses her of abusing her position to pursue a fraudulent indictment against former President Donald Trump.
Georgia State Sen. Colton Moore, representing District 53, said on Thursday that “an emergency exists” requiring state lawmakers to meet.
“We must strip all funding and, if appropriate, impeach Fani Willis,” Moore stated on X. Continue reading
Disney Legend Defends Splash Mountain and ‘Song of the South’
“…as Imagineers were planning what would become Splash Mountain, then-CEO Michael Eisner rereleased “Song of the South” in theaters to see if it would resonate as well with audiences in the ‘80s as it had 40 years earlier. The film did even better than it had done in any previous theatrical runs.”
(Chris Queen – PJ Media) Many years ago, I wrote about a largely forgotten classic Disney film, “Song of the South.” The 1946 film was innovative in the way the studio combined live action and animation in an effective way, and it won Academy Awards for Best Original Song and an honorary award for star James Baskett — who became the first black man to win an Oscar.

Judge Finds Hillsong Founder Brian Houston NOT GUILTY of Concealing Sex Abuse
(Protestia) Former Global Senior Pastor of Hillsong Church, Brian Houston, was found not guilty of covering up sexual abuses committed by his late father over 30 years ago, with Magistrate Gareth Christofi handing down the decision in Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court early Thursday morning.
Houston, 69, was a child when his pedophile father, Pastor Frank Houston, molested Brett Sengstock in the 1970s…. Continue reading
The New Tower of Babel
“Had we kept our universal language, who knows what further mischief our ruling sinners might have devised? But God knew, and nipped it in the bud.”
(Lee Duigon – News With Views) CNN—didn’t that use to be a news network?—is going to teach us plebs how to use “neo-pronouns,” avoiding the utterance of such fighting words as “he” or “she”. We have to learn to say “ze” and “zyr” and anything else Our Betters have dreamed up lately.
The pro-choice mob demands we choose to obey. You have to give them credit for being generous with their delusions—they certainly don’t want to keep them to themselves. Continue reading
Biden probe shifts to National Archives with discovery of private emails between Joe and Hunter
“…the Committee questions why the then-Vice President’s son, Hunter Biden—and only Hunter Biden—was copied on this email to then-Vice President Biden.”
(John Solomon – Just the News) In a dramatic shift in the Biden family corruption probe, House investigators on Thursday demanded full access at the National Archives to Joe Biden’s communications as vice president with his son Hunter and his business partners. Continue reading
Conservative Leaders Call on House GOP to Open Impeachment Inquiry
“Joe Biden is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, warranting the opening of an impeachment inquiry, which must ultimately result in impeachment by the House and removal by the United States Senate of Joe Biden as President of the United States.”
(Emma-Jo Morris – Breitbart) Conservative leaders are calling on House Republicans to open an impeachment inquiry against the “corrupt occupant of the White House,” President Joe Biden, according to a Conservative Action Project Memo obtained exclusively by Breitbart News. Continue reading
Who Will Say No More to the Current Madness?
“Most know what must be done, but few will tell the truth: Balance the budget. Return to legal only immigration. Restore a well-funded, but unwoke Pentagon….Insist on racial unity. Curb the overweening administrative state. Enforce the rule of law….Produce more gas and oil. Reestablish civic education. Insist universities protect free speech and due process — and stop proselytizing.”
(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) Britain slept in the 1930s as an inevitable war with Hitler loomed.
A lonely Winston Churchill had only a few courageous partners to oppose the appeasement and incompetence of his conservative colleague Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain. Continue reading
5 Ways to Tell if Your Church’s Worship Music is Man-Centered
“True worship, as described in the Scriptures, is a response to Jesus being revealed to us by God the Father. It is not contingent on musical skill, technological prowess, or atmospheric effects. When we look at the worship of God by the angels and His people in the Bible, we see a focus on the character, works, and promises of God….”
(The Dissenter) In the modern age, it’s not uncommon to find churches falling into a pattern of cheesy, shallow worship music. The superficiality of these songs often reveals much about the theology in the church itself. When a church preaches and a congregation subscribes to shallow theology, a low view of the sovereignty of God, and a high view of self, the music produced inevitably mirrors these beliefs….

‘Unbelievable’: DA and Presiding Judge Both Crack Jokes as Trump Is Indicted in Georgia
“The indictment — like any Trump indictment as the 2024 campaign season ramps up — was hardly unexpected. What was unexpected was prosecutors and judges making light of the situation.”
(The Western Journal) Indicting a former president of the United States is serious business, or so the left says after every new charge against Donald Trump.
That, of course, is why the judge and district attorney in the 2024 Republican front-runner’s latest round of charges are having a good laugh about it. Continue reading
Is Rick Warren A False Teacher?
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Horse) Richard Duane Warren, commonly known as Rick Warren, is an American Evangelical pastor, author, and speaker. Born on January 28, 1954, in San Jose, California, he is widely recognized for his influential contributions to Christian ministry and his best-selling book “The Purpose Driven Life.”
Warren’s early life was marked by a strong religious foundation. He grew up in a Christian family and developed an interest in the church from a young age. After high school, he pursued his education at California Baptist University, where he obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree. Following his undergraduate studies, he continued his theological education at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he earned a Master of Divinity degree. Continue reading
Seeking Counsel
“The tone of this column is cynical, I’m aware. But this entire Biden thing is bogus. The fix was in from the beginning, with Hunter not paying his taxes and generally behaving like a cartel member. The corrupt press helped Hunter out. The Justice Department didn’t care.”
(Bill O’Reilly) Attorney General Merrick Garland is scared. So is FBI Chief Christopher Wray. But most frightened of all should be President Joe Biden. I say should because, at this point, he might not understand or even remember how he enabled his son and brother to amass millions in foreign payments for doing nothing. Continue reading
Hypocrite Pastors Who Complain About Trump, But Refuse to Complain About Democrats
“It is impossible to make the case that voting for Democrats or supporting their pro-abortion, pro-LGBTQ, anti-Christian policies and platform is not sinful. It is. And this is where the hypocrisy of these pastors and church leaders comes into play.”
(The Dissenter) One of my favorite follows on Twitter is Woke Preacher Clips (WPC). I’m the kind of person who is mildly entertained by the mass amounts of stupidity plaguing our world, but at the same time, I grieve over it in the hopes that God will open the eyes of some of these people. It’s really not funny, it’s just how some people process such a sad reality…. Continue reading
