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

If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me

24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. 25 For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. Matthew 16:24-25 (LSB) 

The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is a message given to be passed on as “Good News” of the completed work of Christ on behalf of those he came to save. The message is about his incarnation, his perfect life, his death on the cross, his three days and nights in the tomb, and his resurrection…. Continue reading

President Trump Declares Failure of Movie Industry a National Security Threat

(Mary Dowling) President Trump said the US movie industry is dying quickly because incentives are drawing filmmakers and studios away from the US. He’s planning a 100% tariff on movies imported to the US that are produced in foreign lands.

The Movie Industry in America is DYING a very fast death. Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated. Continue reading

Money Killed the Press

“But worst of all, television news has devolved into a daily cauldron of propaganda. Dishonest statements go unchallenged, phony narratives are peddled as fact. Somewhere in a very hot place, Joseph Goebbels is delighted.”

(Bill O’Reilly) Former ABC News guy Ted Koppel is not a fan of mine.  Years ago, appearing on the Factor, he blamed me for corrupting TV news standards because I developed an analysis program in prime time that changed the tempo of news presentations.

Koppel is correct that I did that but fails to understand why it was necessary and a very positive thing…. Continue reading

Did President Trump just pass the MAGA torch during this NBC interview?

Watch the video clips.

(Revolver) In a powerful NBC interview, President Trump cleared all the rumors: he’s not running in 2028. He squashed the chatter, silenced all the speculation, and many believe that he just passed the torch, not just to a new generation of leaders, but to the future of the America First movement itself.

Trump lit the MAGA flame back in 2015. He gave a voice to the forgotten men and women, torched the globalist platform, and totally redefined what Republican leadership looks like. But Trump knows this movement is bigger than one man. It has to be, or we’re doomed. And if it’s going to survive and keep winning, it needs strong, serious fighters to carry the torch forward. Continue reading

The Manly and Masculine Christ

“The reason that millions of young men are resonating with the sorts of things that people like Jordan Peterson are saying is that they are crying out to once again hear that it is OK to be male, to be a man, to be manly, and to be masculine. They want to be who they were meant to be.”

(Bill Muehlenberg – Culture Watch) It is time to get back to the biblical Jesus:

Throughout much of the West, we have forgotten what it is to be a man. Or worse yet, we have demonised men and manliness. We have condemned men and masculinity. This is proving to be a recipe for disaster. And the Christian church should have no part in this. We need to get back to the Bible. Continue reading

“The most political church in town…”

“Sadly far too many megachurch and megachurch-adjacent pastors, whether they be connected with the Andy Stanley-style attractional movement, TGC, Acts29, or many other organizations, are cowards. That’s not to say all of them. But far too many. And according to Revelation 21, cowardice is a damnable sin.”

(Steven Whitlow – Clear Truth Media) A few weeks ago I attended a pro-life breakfast with around six hundred fellow Northwest Ohio pro-life advocates. Most were expecting to hear Vivek Ramaswamy show his bonafides as an ally in the fight for life, but he excused himself from the event 24 hours before it began. Continue reading

Loomer drops juicy bombshell on activist judge who’s targeting Trump’s agenda…

“Under federal judicial guidelines, judges are supposed to recuse themselves if their impartiality could reasonably be questioned or if their spouse has a financial interest tied to the case. In Judge Thurston’s situation, actually both rules apply.”

(Revolver) If you thought lawfare was just about courtroom theatrics and endless sham indictments, think again. The Left has turned activist judges into one of their deadliest weapons, all part of their coordinated, scorched-earth mission to stop President Trump from doing what he was elected to do: reverse Joe Biden’s radical, failed agenda and Make America Great Again. Continue reading

The Modern Corruption of Separating Church from State

“In his famous ‘Farewell Address,’ Washington reminded Americans that religious teachings and values must never be removed from politics and public policy…

The highest court in the land committed a shocking error in how it interpreted the First Amendment, for it abandoned completely the Founders’ expressed belief that the biblical faiths were essential to America’s existence.”

(Susan Quinn – American Thinker) From the outset of forming our country, our Founders were determined to keep religion as a foundational element, given that many people had left their homes in Britain to be able to practice their religions as they chose. The goal was not for the government to reject faith, but for it to be prevented from dictating doctrine. Continue reading

Bombshell Body Cam Footage Destroys Everything Democrats Said About Abrego Garcia

“Ordinarily, when someone’s behind the wheel of a car crammed with illegal migrants, carrying a wad of cash, and driving on a bogus license, that should set off every alarm bell. But under Biden’s ICE, that wasn’t enough to warrant action. They never even bothered to pick him up. He was promptly back on the street.”

(PJ Media) The left’s latest manufactured martyr just got exposed as exactly what conservatives suspected he is all along. Newly released body cam footage shows Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the illegal immigrant whom Democrats have been desperately trying to paint as just an innocent “Maryland dad,” was stopped in 2022 under suspicion of human trafficking. Continue reading

How Long Does God’s Anger Last?

(Paul Schlehlein – Between Two Cultures) Answer: God’s anger upon his children is temporary, while His wrath up His enemies will carry on forever.

Problem: Some passages say God’s anger lasts but for a moment, while other Scriptures teach God’s wrath is eternal.

Explanation: The nature, intensity, and extent of God’s wrath differs depending on which of His two audiences He is addressing. In the first case, God limits His anger towards His children, whom He loves. Psalm 30:5 illustrates this: “For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.” Continue reading
