False Teacher of the Day: Delman Coates

“The real tragedy isn’t that Coates is just wrong—it’s that he’s confidently, proudly, and unforgivably wrong, leading these people down a path of spiritual ruin.”

(The Dissenter) Delman Coates, the senior pastor of Mt. Ennon Baptist Church, recently delivered a sermon that could only be described as theological arson. Coates didn’t just bend the truth—he violently assaulted it, dragged it into a dark alley, and left it bleeding. He essentially raped the text of Scripture to accommodate his progressive ideology.

Did Former FBI Director James Comey Just Call for Trump To Be Murdered?

“FACT-O-RAMA! The phrase “86” was code to vacate the speakeasy at 86 Bedford in NYC. A cop on the take would hear they were about to be raided and would call the joint and say “86” and they knew to 23 Skidddo.” – Kevin Downey JR.

(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) It doesn’t get much more desperate and deranged than this. A former FBI director appears to have called for the assassination of the current president of the United States, Donald Trump. At least that looks like the message being telegraphed by the nation’s former top lawman on his social media accounts. Continue reading

The Trump Administrations’ Latest Move Is Sure to Anger the Branch Covidians

(Jeff Charles – Townhall) The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will no longer recommend the COVID-19 vaccine to minors and pregnant women, a significant departure from government policy during the pandemic.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will remove the recommendations when it enacts new policies for approving vaccinations.

The exact timing of the announcement wasn’t clear, the people said, though it was expected in the coming days. Continue reading

What are the Causes of Church Conflict?

(Robb Brunansky – The Cripplegate) God designed the church to be a foretaste of the new creation, but sadly, the church can often look more like the old creation as Christians surrender to the desires of the flesh. These problems in the church are not unique, new, or specific to a handful of churches. Rather, conflict has riddled the church from its earliest days.

The first churchwide conflict in the New Testament occurred in Acts 6. This dissension happened during an exciting time of massive growth, not during a time of difficulty or a season of stagnant ministry. With this increase, however, came a proliferation of conflict and strife…. Continue reading

We Need to Address the Church’s Bondage to Hollywood

(The Dissenter) If our church members fall into the habit of frequenting the theatre, we shall soon have them going much further in the direction of vice, and they will lose all relish for the ways of God. If theatre-going became general among professing Christians, it would be the death of piety. Yet one finds the taste for such things increasing on every hand. – Charles Spurgeon

We are a fallen people. Sin is our nature. God sees that we, in our natural state, are profoundly wicked, and that every intention of the thoughts of our hearts is only evil continually (Genesis 6:5). This is one of the foundational truths of Christianity: God is good, man is fallen. This is why He sent His Son to die for us. Continue reading

The Hidden Supernatural: Angels, Souls, and God’s Sovereignty

(Elizabeth Prata – The End Times) The article explores the supernatural realm, emphasizing its presence in everyday life. It discusses Thomas Jefferson’s rationalist beliefs and the journey of souls after death, highlighting angelic warfare and God’s sovereignty. I encourages readers to recognize, even if we cannot see, the continuous supernatural activities guided by divine oversight that influence human history and spiritual existence.

Did you ever stop to consider the supernatural in your everyday life?

I’d like to write something that will hopefully open your mind to the teeming activity in the supernatural realms which our current eyes cannot see. However the bustling activity is all around us on earth  and extends into the second and third heaven. Continue reading

Daystar Television Vindicated As Police Close Investigation Without Charges

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Last year, the allegations of sexual abuse threatened the televangelist empire, Daystar. Daystar was accused of covering up abuse by Jonanthan and Suzy Lamb. They alleged that their daughter was purposefully walked in on while changing her bathing suit on a family vacation. These allegations were made through the feminist blogger, Julie Roys, who unscrupulously published their account, leaving out major details that led to a correction.

*Correction: Our initial report said Pete was alone in the room with Jonathan and Suzy’s daughter. Pete was holding a baby in his arms and Jonathan and Suzy’s son was on a bunk on the opposite side of the room.

Dr. Michael Brown Threatens Legal Action Against Former Colleague Over Defamation Claims

(Protestia) In a dramatic escalation of a recent scandal, noted author and apologist Dr. Michael Brown has issued a cease-and-desist letter to his former friend and colleague, Ron Cantor, demanding an apology and retraction of alleged false statements involving Brown’s recent “sexual misconduct” controversy. The letter threatens further legal action if Cantor fails to comply.

Cantor has been highly critical of Brown throughout the entire saga, recently releasing a 135-page report of witness testimony seeking to document Brown’s alleged behavior, both admitted to and denied. Continue reading

Episcopal Church Refuses to Resettle White South Africans and Ends Partnership With U.S. Government

“There’s no persecution of whites in South Africa. None. Zero. Zilch. Pay no attention to the law passed last year that gives the government the right to appropriate white South African farmland.”

(Rick Moran – PJ Media) How very Christian of them.

The Episcopal Church thinks that all white South Africans are racists and won’t help a few dozen of them resettle in the United States.

“In light of our church’s steadfast commitment to racial justice and reconciliation and our historic ties with the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, we are not able to take this step,” wrote the Most Rev. Sean W. Rowe, the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church. Continue reading

Dangerous ticks, green tyrants and the new biological war on red meat…

“This bizarre red meat allergy is sweeping across the country, we’re also being hit with a coordinated media and political campaign to convince us that meat is killing us, making us sick, destroying the planet, and needs to go. The timing isn’t just strange, it’s downright suspicious…”

(Revolver) There’s a tick spreading across the US that’s giving people an allergy to red meat. No, this isn’t some fringe conspiracy theory; it’s actually real, and it’s called Alpha-gal Syndrome. It starts with the bite of a Lone Star tick, and for some people, it ends with a permanent allergic reaction to beef, lamb, pork, even dairy and gelatin. Some farmers and ranchers who get it can’t even go near their own livestock without reacting.

And guess what? It’s spreading… Continue reading

Moral Majority or Moral Authority? Applying Biblical Ethics in the Public Square

“The church’s role is not to usurp the authority of the family or the government but to uphold biblical standards, to disciple believers, and to bear witness to the truth. In doing so, it supports families with teaching and counseling, and it speaks prophetically to governments, calling them to align with God’s moral order.”

(Keith Foskey – Clear Truth Media) Recently, I taught a course on biblical law and ethics, where we explored a wide range of topics—sexuality, politics, economics, and even just war theory. A key question that emerged during our discussions was this: How do we move from theory to practice when it comes to ethics and morality? More specifically, what role should the church play in applying biblical ethics to the broader culture? Continue reading

Would the Left Finally Explain the Inexplicable?

“Why did Biden or his puppeteers do something so anarchic, so injurious to their fellow Americans?”

(Victor Davis Hanson) Somewhere between 10 and 12 million illegal aliens were invited into the United States by the Biden administration.

As far as logistics go, former President Joe Biden could not flee Afghanistan without getting 13 Marines killed and abandoning to the terrorist Taliban $50 billion in munitions, a billion-dollar embassy, and a $300 million retrofitted huge airbase.

But Biden and his handlers proved far more logistically capable when their target was fellow Americans. Continue reading

New Study Finds Majority of American Catholics Want Church To Be More ‘Inclusive,’ Abandon Catholic Teaching

(Protestia) A significant majority of American Catholics favor the adoption of progressive theological teachings that diverge from the core tenets of their faith, according to a recent study by the Pew Research Center, which surveyed 1,787 Catholic respondents.

When asked whether the Catholic Church should “stick to its traditional teachings, even if it means the church gets smaller” or “be more inclusive, even if it means changing some of its teachings,” over 60% of respondents favored greater ‘inclusivity,’ while 37% supported adhering to traditional, more biblical doctrines. Continue reading

‘We Don’t Do Politics…’

“When you attempt to sever spiritual matters from political matters, it is akin to removing the soul from the body. The body dies. And that is what we are seeing in the West. The body is dying because we’ve attempted to sever the spiritual or theological from politics.”

The election was days away. He knew his congregation was divided, some would vote Republican, other Democrat, others third party. And he knew that more than a few would oppose his ballot if they ever discovered how he voted, which he was scrupulous to obscure. For weeks, emails had piled up with various members encouraging him to say something. The administrative assistant kept hounding him to reply. But he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

Progressive Christianity Watch: Bad Music Choices Edition

“The operative line in that song is “We’ve got no idea what we’re doing” — because they don’t have a clue. It’s bad not only because it hints at universalism but also because it simply doesn’t make any sense.”

(Chris Queen – PJ Media) It’s been a few weeks since I’ve written one of these, so I figured we were due for another look at the silliness that progressive churches engage in. A few weeks ago, I shared a musical-themed column, and I have another one. Think of this as Progressive Christianity 2: Electric Bugaloo. Continue reading

A ‘Nuclear Bomb’ of Damaging Revelations Is Coming for Biden and Democrats

“…I don’t know that the Democrats have fully internalized what’s about to happen to them between what he looks like today and what they’re about to report.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) CNN political commentator Scott Jennings didn’t hold back on Thursday when he predicted that a political earthquake would come for the Democratic Party next week. Appearing on a CNN panel discussion following Biden’s appearance on “The View,” Jennings pointed to the president’s stumbling performance and an explosive upcoming book as the ingredients for a devastating week ahead. Continue reading

Dr. Michael Brown Announces Return To Ministry: ‘Some of you’d rather never see my face again’

“Expressing his “desire is to lower the temperatures, not raise them,” Brown described the process he’s submitted to over the last six months, including eagerly agreeing to the third part of the investigation, even though there was a hiccup.”

(Protestia) Dr. Michael Brown has issued his first public statement since December 17, 2024, addressing allegations of sexual misconduct that led to a six-month social media sabbatical and sharing his thoughts on the third-party investigation that was subsequently conducted. Continue reading

Jesse Duplantis Claims He Created His Own World Because He Has the Same DNA as God

“What makes this even more twisted is how it flips suffering on its head. If you’re broke or hurting, it’s not because life is hard or sin is real — it’s because you just didn’t speak enough blessings over yourself. You didn’t create your world right. It’s not just bad theology, it’s cruel. It makes people feel like failures for not being able to just wish their pain away.”

(The Dissenter) If there was ever a guy who sold his soul for money and fortune, it’s Jesse Duplantis. This clown is a walking, talking, prosperity-gospel charlatan of the highest order, and every time he opens his mouth, some new heresy rolls out. Continue reading

The Eastern Orthodox Trick

“Did you notice their theological sleight of hand? The Eastern Orthodox, when instructing their insiders, distinguish between art and icons. But now, when defending themselves to us outsiders, they point to the art in the Tabernacle/Temple as evidence of icons. But for those images to be icons, they would have to be used in worship, bowed to, etc. But Israelites did not do that, at least never with God’s approval.”

(John B. Carpenter – Clear Truth Media) The Eastern Orthodox claim to be attracting evangelicals. I’ve heard the stories of once devout Bible-believing Christians drawn into Eastern Orthodoxy with the promise of finding the early church…. Continue reading

If Evangelicals Want to Become Catholic, We Should Let Them Go

“Let the apostates burn their Bibles and pick up their rosaries. Let them trade Sola Fide for Hail Marys. Let them bow to a Pope who calls Muslims brothers and pretends the narrow way is a multi-lane expressway. Let them have their beads and their bones and their blessings. They were never of us.”

(The Dissenter) Let them go.

Really, let them.

If your spiritual appetite can be satisfied by the incense-choked pageantry of Rome—by genuflecting before a golden cage of transubstantiated flour—then it was never Christ that you hungered for to begin with…. Continue reading

Somehow, Michelle Obama Has Become Even More Tedious

It’s Hillary Clinton all over again, where we are being subjected to the coattails ride of a bitter spouse. If all of this publicity is, as many people think, paving the way for a presidential run, Mrs. Obama seems to be gunning for the disgruntled housewife demographic.”

(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) She’s back, and the world isn’t better for it.

Barack and Michelle Obama are the recurring rash of American political tabloid news, continually finding mundane ways to stay in the spotlight…. Continue reading

Knowing the will of God isn’t a deep dark secret

By Marsha West

Is it possible for a Christian to know God’s will and not have to agonize over it? Should a believer make a decision without first spending hours in prayer, asking God to reveal His will? Must a Christian avoid making a decision until he or she has a “peace about it”? What about waiting for a “sign” from God? Is it okay for a Christian to consult a psychic or a Ouija board to seek God’s guidance?

A married couple, John and Tina, is faced with a dilemma. They would like to move to Colorado to be closer to John’s family. They’ve been praying about it, asking God to show them His will. Their decision must be made before the end of the week, yet they’re still not sure what God wants them to do — should they stay or should they go?

Naturally John and Tina are confused and frustrated. John is leaning toward moving because he knows it will be good for the kids to live close to their grandparents. He’s even getting excited about it. Not Tina! She wants to wait for a “confirmation,” from God before they pull up stakes and move half way across the country.

John and Tina are in the proverbial pickle.

Many Christians talk about finding God’s will as though it were some deep dark secret hidden away in the pages of Scripture. Maybe God doesn’t want us to find it.

Where does the Bible teach that God tries to hide His will from us? Continue reading
