What Does He Know? Dan Bongino Offers Chilling Warning to Barack Obama.

“Barack Hussein Obama is the king of weaponization…documents declassified last year revealed he was present for key meetings that led to critical steps in the opening of the Russia Hoax investigation against President Trump…President Trump has restored integrity to the Department of Justice that Obama and Biden broke.” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) I still can’t believe that Barack Obama had the audacity to lecture Americans during his recent interview with Stephen Colbert about presidents misusing the Justice Department. Continue reading

The Democratic Party Is Dead, Long Live the Jacobins!

“The most recent nihilist developments in American society can be attributed to these Jacobin* “Democrats”: biological men competing in women’s sports; critical legal theory that normalizes cashless bail; race-based reparations; violent felons arrested and back on the street hours later; radical abortion on demand until birth; attacks on the concept of the cultural “melting pot”; and opposition to organized Christianity.”

(Victor Davis Hanson) For the past century, the agendas of the Democratic Party were predictable. They professed concern for working Americans and supported blue-collar unions.

Unemployment insurance, a 40-hour work week, disability insurance, and Social Security were their trademarks — often rapidly achieved by growing government bureaucracies and continually raising taxes. Still, many Democrats were socially conservative. Continue reading

Sam Allberry: How His Theology Killed His Ministry

“Allberry refused to agree with God’s word and call his evil desires “sin” as the Bible does, which kept homosexuality burning in his heart. Christians cannot disagree with God and expect it to end well for them. If you refuse to kill sin, it will kill you. And if you’re a Christian, you have the Holy Spirit and the ability to repent, to put to death all evil motions of the flesh within you:”

(Jared Moore – TruthScript) Sam Allberry, a self-proclaimed “Christian who experiences same-sex attraction,” was recently caught in a homosexual relationship, causing him to resign as Associate Pastor of Immanuel Church in Nashville, TN, where he served with Gavin Ortlund, Russell Moore, Ray Ortlund, Barnabas Piper, and others. Allberry has taught across the country that homosexuality in your heart is not sin, if you don’t act on it…. Continue reading

5 Reasons Why ‘Casting Down Principalities and Powers’ Is a Doctrine of Demons

“A doctrine of demons does not always deny Jesus openly. Sometimes it adds to Jesus. It adds new revelations, new warfare methods, new apostolic systems, new decrees, new heavenly strategies, and new spiritual technologies. But anything that adds to the sufficiency of Christ and goes beyond Scripture becomes dangerous.”

(Don Pirozok) The teaching that Christians must “cast down principalities and powers” over cities, nations, governments, mountains, territories, or atmospheres is dangerous because it shifts the believer’s attention away from the finished victory of Jesus Christ and into a mystical warfare practice that Scripture never commands. The New Testament teaches that Christ has already defeated principalities and powers through the cross. Believers are commanded to stand in Christ, resist the devil, pray, preach the gospel, walk in holiness, put on the armor of God, and test the spirits. They are never commanded to confront, bind, rebuke, dethrone, or cast down territorial spirits in the heavens. When a doctrine adds spiritual practices that Christ and the apostles did not teach, it becomes a doorway to deception. Continue reading

The “Christian” Pantheon Of Acceptable “gods”

“So the question is not whether you have idols. You have many. The question is which one you would sell the others to keep.”

(Kendall Lankford) There is a curious thing about the first commandment, which is that almost no one believes they have broken it. Murder, yes. Theft, perhaps. Adultery, well, of the eyes if not of the body. But idols? Idols are wooden men in jungles and golden calves in deserts and fat little statues in temples on the other side of the world. The modern man hears Thou shalt have no other gods before me and feels a faint, rather pleasant solidarity with Moses, the way one feels solidarity with a man condemning a crime one has not yet thought of committing. Continue reading

After Sam Allberry’s Disqualification, His Co-Pastor Puts Out Video Attacking Inerrancy

“You’ve got Gavin Ortlund stepping up to explain, with that gentle and lowly familiar Ortlund tone, that inerrancy isn’t really a first-rank doctrine. Let’s slow down. Let’s be careful. Let’s not throw around labels. Let’s make room for “legitimate Christians” who think the Bible has errors. He even reaches back to Machen, of all people, as if to baptize the whole move in fundamentalist credibility.”

(The Dissenter) It started by nudging inerrancy down the ladder. Not completely off the ladder, nobody’s that reckless in polite company. But just a rung or two. “Important, yes…” Gavin says, “but let’s be careful. Let’s not overstate. Let’s not divide over vocabulary.” It sounds like humility…. Continue reading

Archdiocese of New York Agrees To Pay $800,000,000 in Sex Abuse Settlement

“A letter sent by the Archbishop of New York, Ronald Hicks, notes that the matter has been a painful process, but they hope that all parties accept. If so, they would each received around $215,000.” 

(Protestia) Two years after the Archdiocese of Los Angeles reached an $880 million settlement with men and women who survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of Roman Catholic priests and clergy in their diocese, the Catholic Archdiocese of New York is following suit, agreeing to pay more than $800 million to its own sexual abuse survivors. Continue reading

Jason Whitlock vs. Erika Kirk: Why She Needs to Resign as TPUSA CEO

“Whitlock has received much hate from other Conservatives for this, but Isaiah 3:12 calls female rulers a curse from God. Paul makes ontological arguments against female ordination in the Church, which rooting his reasoning in Creation, naturally extends the application beyond the Church setting since ontology is not limited to the Church.”

(Anthony Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Where the Charlie Kirk’s assassination should have united the Right going into the 2026 midterm cycle, the exact opposite has happened. The immediate aftermath saw a debate over Kirk’s thoughts on Israel, which were trending Israel-sceptic, but were not outright anti-Zionist. Because he had shifted on this issue, this led to conspiracy theories that Israel assassinated Charlie Kirk and other outlandish tales. Continue reading

60 Minutes Ran a Shameful Report on ‘Hate Groups’ Helping After Natural Disasters

“Remember, the Left believes charity does not count if it doesn’t come from the government.”

Watch the videos

(Amy Curtis – Townhall) The Left is not coping well with the news that their demand for racism and hate in America far outstrips the supply. We learned last month that the Southern Poverty Law Center, which was indicted for fraud, was funneling money to hate groups to keep them afloat so they could turn around and generate a narrative that white supremacy, Nazism, and other hate groups were still a force to be reckoned with. Continue reading

Rosaria Butterfield Names Preston Sprinkle, Revoice, and CRU as Teaching Heresy on LGBTQ

FLASHBACK FROM 2023

(The Dissenter) Last Friday, author and speaker Rosaria Butterfield spoke at the convocation for Liberty University. Rosaria Butterfield is a former tenured professor of English and women’s studies at Syracuse University who became a Christian in 1999. Her conversion story, which includes leaving a lesbian lifestyle, is detailed in her memoir, “The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert.”

After coming to Christ, Butterfield quickly began a career in Evangelicalism where she would speak about her conversion story. However, she quickly became caught up in the wrong crowd at outlets like The Gospel Coalition and a lot of her teachings she has even admitted herself, were false teachings…. Continue reading

Pastor Sam Allberry Resigns From Church After Revealing ‘Inappropriate relationship with another man’

“A statement from Immanuel Church about Sam Allberry reveals they knew he engaged in an inappropriate relationship with another man in 2022 but didn’t believe it rose to the level of being disqualifying, and still decided to bring him on as pastor. They later discovered new information about this relationship that was previously undisclosed, and then terminated his employment.”

(Protestia) Pastor, author, and apologist Sam Allberry has resigned from his position at his church and from the Keller Institute after revealing that he had been involved in an inappropriate relationship with a man several years ago. Continue reading

Inside the $50 Billion Lawsuit Shaking Christian Music

“The Newsboys were effectively sidelined across much of the Christian music ecosystem. Relationships deteriorated. Opportunities disappeared. The lawsuit argues that the reporting did not simply describe events but helped trigger a cascade of decisions that removed TCA and the Newsboys from the marketplace.”

(David Morrill) What began as long-whispered allegations about Michael Tait has now exploded into a $50 billion federal lawsuit, one that claims the scandal was not just reported but weaponized. The case pits the Newsboys and their business partners against major concert promoters, MercyMe, and Julie Roys of all people, raising uncomfortable questions about contracts, competition, and how stories get told in the Christian media world. Continue reading

The ‘Jesus’ of Mormonism à la Glenn Beck

“Influential evangelical within the Religious Right James Robison says Jesus is in the heart of devout Mormon Glenn Beck. Leading SBC spokesman Richard Land says that he hears Beck clearly preach the Gospel on TV. Well, here’s the heart of the matter, if Glenn Beck’s ever to be considered a Christian, then let him publicly repent of and repudiate the Mormon theology in this heavily documented article you can examine for yourself.” – Ken Silva, 2012

(Ken Silva) Being an online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries does not involve itself in politics per se; however, there are times when those issues will cross, as is the case with popular conservative talk show host Glenn Beck.

Lately it’s becoming more apparent that Beck, who is a baptized member in good standing with the non-Christian cult of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons), being portrayed by influential evangelicals as a Christian.

Take for example James Robison Says Jesus Is In The Heart Of Mormon Glenn Beck and The god Of Glenn Beck. In the latter piece you see embattled Southern Baptist leader Richard Land tell us he’s heard Beck preach “the Gospel so clearly.” Continue reading

New Footage of Trump Assassination Attempt Released. Here’s What It Shows.

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) The friendly fire theory just got buried — on video.

For days, questions swirled about whether a Secret Service agent wounded at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner had actually been hit by fellow agents in the chaos. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro put that narrative to rest Thursday night.

Pirro released new, high-quality security video from the Washington Hilton Hotel showing 31-year-old Cole Allen charging through a Secret Service checkpoint during the April 25 dinner, where President Trump was scheduled to speak. The footage, she noted, had already been submitted to U.S. District Court. Continue reading

Progressive Christianity Watch: Flirty God, Lesbian Angels, and Other Things Not in Your Study Bible

“Progressive Christians love to take the “love chapter” of 1 Corinthians out of context to justify everything from homosexuality to, in this case, satanists getting married at a church. It’s too bad she didn’t share the truth about Christianity with this couple; that would’ve been truth to rejoice in.”

(Chris Queen – PJ Media) It’s been a while since I’ve written a Progressive Christianity Watch. I have a trio of doozies for you today, so enjoy.

Let’s head over to Houston, where Rev. Lura Groen, a woman pastor (shocker) preaches at Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church, which is part of the far-left Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. She’s also an “out bisexual.” Continue reading

Why I Strongly Warn About Alpha

“One of the most serious concerns with Alpha is its intentional ecumenical approach. The course is designed to unite participants across denominational lines, often by minimizing doctrinal distinctions. While biblical unity among true believers is important, that unity must never come at the expense of essential doctrine—especially the Gospel itself.” –Berean Research

(Amy Spreeman – Berean Research) Alpha, or The Alpha Course, has become very familiar in churches all over the world. On the surface, Alpha looks simple enough. It’s friendly. It’s relational. There’s food, conversation in small community groups, and lots of videos on an app that introduce people to the basics of Christianity in a very non-threatening way. Continue reading

Premarital Counseling: Concerning Wheat, Tares, and Being Born Again

“In conception, the child has the nature, the DNA, of its parents. So too, when one is born of the Holy Spirit, he or she has the nature, the DNA, of God. It cannot be otherwise. And God’s DNA produces the fruit of the Holy Spirit, i.e., the character of God. And that corresponds with the death of self. “Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it cannot bear fruit …” That’s DNA talk. That’s “parenthood of God” talk.”

(David Harris – TruthScript) In an email exchange with a pastor who uses our premarital workbook (1), he mentioned premarital counseling with a couple he wasn’t sure were Christians or who professed some belief, but their lives made him question their conversion. This is a common and likely perplexing situation for pastors. I started a reply with comments and concerns about counseling premarital and married couples, but my brief reply turned into this lengthy commentary, or rather, into a lengthy question. Continue reading

Jimmy Kimmel’s Blood Feud With Melania Trump: Why Disney Fiddles as Its Magic Kingdom Burns

“But it’s not just a phantom First Amendment privilege that Kimmel is asserting. He’s also arguing that it’s the audience’s fault for misunderstanding his hilarious “joke” about Mrs. Trump….Kimmel is wrong: The First Amendment doesn’t entitle Americans “to say whatever” we want. Nor does it protect us from the consequences of our speech.”

(Scott Pinsker – PJ Media) I’m a professional political writer: PJ Media pays me to analyze politics, culture, news, and entertainment. Our business relationship isn’t complicated: I write it, and PJ Media publishes it.

But it’s a high-risk job on all sides. When you opine about controversial topics like race, gender, public policy, and war, you’ll inevitably offend someone. (And not always deliberately!) Continue reading

Like the Latest Trump Shooter, Your Child’s Teacher Could be ‘Teacher of the Month’ Too

“They are teaching these children that the nation is inherently evil, that traditional values are tools of oppression, and that “success” is defined not by virtue, but by the intensity of one’s resistance against the existing order—and that Christian conservatism is perpetuating this “injustice.”

(The Dissenter) If you needed another reason to pull your children from public schools, look no further than this latest near-tragedy. The shadow falling across our nation is not an accidental byproduct of a few “troubled” individuals—it is the inevitable destination of a decade-long, state-funded crusade to dismantle the moral foundations of our children. Continue reading

Texas Baptists to Study Relationship With Baylor University

“The “All Are Neighbors” event is set to feature two well-known self-identified gay Christians as guest speakers. It is believed this is the first time an openly gay, self-identified Christian advocacy speaker has appeared on Baylor’s campus.”

(Kendall Lyons – Ministry Watch) In an advisory sent to Texas Baptists the afternoon of April 17, Texas Baptists Executive Director Julio Guarneri said the convention will study its relationship with Baylor University following concerns over recent campus events. Continue reading

Look what dirtbag reporters were doing while shots were fired…

“This is called emotional gasoline, and it’s being dumped all over a country already on fire. And when someone unstable decides to light the match, the same people who spent years pouring fuel everywhere suddenly seem shocked and confused.”

(Revolver) Saturday night should’ve been one of those smug little DC rituals where the media dresses up, congratulates itself, and pretends it’s the brave guardian of democracy.

Instead, President Trump had to be rushed out of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner after a gunman opened fire at the Washington Hilton, wounding a Secret Service agent who was saved by his protective vest. Trump, Melania, JD Vance, and cabinet officials were unharmed, and the suspect is 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen from California. Yet another left-wing, violent nutbag, hell-bent on assassinating Trump. He was taken into custody. Continue reading

America’s Red Summer is Coming

“Regarding the upcoming “Red Summer,” communists point with glee to a 2025 CATO Institute poll which “revealed the extent of this radicalization among the youth,” according to one Marxist group. It found that 62% of 18 to 34-year-olds had a favorable view of socialism – and 34% have favorable views of communism.”

(Cliff Kincaid – RenewAmerica) The American revolution was preceded by “A Great Awakening,” which also happens to be the title of a new film that gives meaning to America’s 250th birthday by highlighting our nation’s Christian heritage. But the enemies of America have other ideas. Continue reading

Let’s get real. Prayer events arranged by ‘Christians’ who deny core beliefs of the historic Christian faith DO NOT glorify God

(Marsha West – Chistian Research Network) Six years ago the Southern Baptist Convention borrowed the Seven Mountain Mandate (7MM) from the New Apostolic Reformation/Dominionism (NAR) to promote the National Day of Prayer. To be clear, the NAR is a theological cult. So those of us involved in online Discernment were gobsmacked when we got wind that the SBC guide contained the same spheres of power as the NAR’s 7MM. Pulpit & Pen (now Protestia) took note and promptly raised a warning flag:

The SBC Executive committee released a guide designed to support members during the upcoming National Day of Prayer. Captioned ‘How to pray the 2020 theme, Pray God’s Glory Across the Earth, into the Seven Centers of Influence in America for the National Day of Prayer, May 7, 2020.‘… (Source)

In summary P&P reported that SBC’s guide was suspiciously like the NAR’s “Seven Mountain Mandate.”

Before I go any further, for those reading this who are asking what exactly is 7MM theology? Back in 2016 I published a piece entitled 7 Mountain Politics and Theology where I wrote: Continue reading

Scenes from the Trans Wars: The war on our women and children is ramping up.

“The Department for Health, however, is supposed to answer to evidence. It now faces a choice: abandon a failing model, or continue an unnecessary experiment on children to placate gender fanatics. The Finnish study must mark the end of the road for Pathways, and for the dangerous fiction of gender-affirming care.”

(Bill Muehlenberg – Cultural Watch) Today in the West all things trans are being shoved down our throats every day, every hour. As but one indication of the trans tsunami in action, two decades ago I had nothing on my website discussing transgenderism. Sure, I had plenty of articles on the homosexual revolution tearing apart the West. But now I have well over 300 pieces devoted to trans activism. Continue reading
