Israel’s Miraculous Survival of the Iranian Missile Strike

(Frontpage) Proud Zionist/Jew, global speaker, and tech columnist Hillel Fuld posted a profound tweet in the wake of the Iranian missile shower on Israel:

I really don’t think you understand the absolute miracles that we witnessed last night here in Israel.

In fact, I am sure you don’t.

Let’s break this down.

Israel has three air defense systems, each one of them a technological wonder and that’s not me saying it. That’s Dr. Gold who basically invented the Iron Dome who told me that. The level and sophistication of the Iron Dome is simply unparalleled. But the Iron Dome only knows how to detonate short range rockets or missiles within a 70 km range, give or take.

Why Celebrity Pastors Deserve Less Honor

The idea here is simple:  We honor our leaders by directing our thoughts to them. If they have faithfully led us with regular doses from the Word of God, we should be mindful of them. After all, the Lord has entrusted such men with the care of our souls (Hebrews 13:17).” 

(Rick White – Ceal Truth Media) A friend recently told me something with which I strongly agree: “We honor all the wrong men”. While it is true that we ought to esteem “those who labor among us” very highly, it is far too common that many Christians highly esteem those that do not labor among them – usually celebrity pastors, online Christian influencers and leaders of large churches. The difference is big. Continue reading

Am I doing something wrong if I make a huge decision and don’t wait to hear from God?

“Any precursor to decision making would assume first that one is saved. Apart from Christ, we can do nothing. (John 15:5). Secondly it assumes that the thing you’re undecided about does not involve sin. We never decide toward sin, we flee from sin. ( 2 Timothy 2:22; Genesis 39:12)….” 

(Elizabeth Prata – The End Time) Does the Bible speak to whom we should marry? Which college to attend? Whether to join the Army? Should we relocate to another state? Change careers now, later, or never? Go back to college? Continue reading

Why does God allow pastors to fall?

(Jesse Johnson – The Cripplegate) When a pastor falls morally, it has an outsized effect on his congregation. There is an uncommon bond between a pastor and his flock. If the gospel is the most important news in the world, and if the gospel transforms a person’s life from the inside out, then it makes sense that people would develop a spiritual relationship with those who minister the word of God to them.

This uncommon union is helpful—it shows the joys of following Christ and experiencing the ordinary means of grace. In fact, it is even commanded in the New Testament. The Hebrews are commanded to consider the outcome of their leader’s faith and emulate it (Hebrews 13:7). Paul tells us that we are to share “all good things” with the ones who teach us the word of God (Galatians 6:6). This sharing produces a spiritual communion and bond. Continue reading

Betrayed: More Details About Steve Lawson’s Double Life Revealed

(Protestia) Additional details are becoming known concerning the adultery and recent disqualification of former Trinity Bible Church pastor Steve Lawson. According to inside sources speaking to Protestia on condition of anonymity, the fixture in conservative, reformed evangelicalism was “living a double life in the heart of the reformed community.”

The young woman Lawson developed an “inappropriate relationship” with is an alumnus of The Master’s University (TMU). However, the two did not meet because of Lawson’s role as head of the Doctor of Ministry program at The Master’s Seminary (TMS, which resides inside Grace Community Church, 17 miles south of the university), but due to her attendance at the church that housed the seminary where Lawson taught….

Evangelicals For Harris Exposed As Pro-Abortion

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) What do you get when you have a gaggle of female pastors in support of Kamala Harris? The answer is numerous attempts at justifying abortion. In a recent Evangelicals For Harris women’s “prayer call,” abortion became a top priority on why Evangelicals should support Kamala Harris for president. Evangelical Dark Web infiltrated the prayer call and has clips to unveil.

The call was hosted by Lisa Sharon Harper who is a theologically liberal author with pronouns in bio…. Continue reading

Expert Calls Out VP Debate Moderators’ Climate Lies

“When you make decisions based on what climate alarmists say, disaster is sure to follow; not a single climate doom prophecy has come true in many decades.”

(Catherine Salgado – PJ Media) Climate alarmists, despite what CBS debate moderators asserted, “can’t demonstrate that emissions are really having any effects on anything other than maybe they’re helping the planet get greener, which means there’s more life,” Junk Science’s Steve Milloy told PJ Media. Continue reading

America Has Chosen Wickedness and God is Giving America Wicked Rulers

“The blind lead the blind, and they wonder why they keep falling into the ditch. The national puppets boast about their “progressive” and “inclusive” policies, but it’s nothing more than a polished veneer on a rotting corpse.”

(The Dissenter) As I watched the debate last night, a grim realization settled over me—this isn’t Kansas anymore. It’s more obvious now than ever before. Something feels off, something has changed. What we once knew, the life we cherished as kids, has slipped through our fingers. It’s gone. And as I sat there, John Calvin’s words struck me, searing into my thoughts: Continue reading

Biden-Harris Admin Used FEMA Disaster Funding For Illegal Immigrants

(Tristin Justice – The Federalist) The Biden-Harris administration took more than a billion tax dollars that had been allocated to the agency responsible for American disaster relief and used it to offer services for illegal immigrants.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) allocated nearly $364 million in the fiscal year 2023 and $650 million for the 2024 fiscal year to the “Shelter and Services Program” “to provide humanitarian services to noncitizen migrants following their release from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS),” according to the government’s website.

BREAKING: IDF: Iran Has Fired Missiles at Israel; All Residents Ordered to Bomb Shelters

(Joel B. Pollak – Breitbart) Iran launched missiles at Israel on Tuesday evening local time, as Israelis throughout the entire country were ordered to take cover in bomb shelters until further notice.

The IDF said in a statement:

A short while ago, missiles were launched from Iran towards the State of Israel.

You are instructed to remain alert and precisely follow the Home Front Command’s instructions

In the last few minutes, the Home Front Command has distributed life-saving instructions in various areas across the country…. Continue reading

Hurricane Helene And The Comfort Of God’s Sovereignty

“It is important to remember that the promise of Romans 8:28 is not universal. It is not a promise to every human being, but to “those who love God and are called according to His purpose.” For those outside of Christ, suffering may only lead to judgment and eternal separation from God. But for those who love God, this passage offers a profound hope.”

(Keith Foskey – Clear Truth Media) I’ve lived my entire life in Florida, so I am no stranger to the dangers of hurricanes and the devastation they can bring. I vividly remember the impact of Hurricane Andrew when I was a boy and the massive relief efforts that followed in its wake. Those in Louisiana likely have similar memories of Hurricane Katrina….

Why the Crusaders Are Inspiring Young Christian Men

“The typical evangelical Christian is not only disconnected from his father and grandfather, but also from his great-grandfathers, in particular the civil and ecclesial fathers who self-consciously laid the foundations of Western society on the firm bedrock of Christian faith and practice.”

(Ben Zeisloft – Clear Truth Media) If you are a Reformed Christian who has been on social media over the past year, you will notice that conversation about the Crusades has been occurring on a fairly regular basis.

Virtually every conservative Christian male under the age of forty seems to have been newly captivated by historical accounts of the nobles who battled the hordes of Islam…. Continue reading

Hey Pentagon, Pay Attention. Israel Is Showing You How to Win Wars.

The days immediately after 9/11 were perhaps our best and only chance to reset the post-Cold War order. We didn’t, and the battle lines today illustrate that radical Islam has advanced remorselessly and virtually unopposed against the remaining bastions of Western civilization. Keep in mind that this is with no cease-fire, truce, or armistice in place with our enemies. Just because we’ve unilaterally chosen not to fight them doesn’t mean they’ve reciprocated. Why would they?”

(C.A. Skeets – PJ Media) On Oct. 7, 2001, we started bombing Afghanistan in the opening stage of Operation Enduring Freedom. That night, our intelligence  located the convoy carrying Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar as he fled Kandahar. But the reconnaissance aircraft that was tailing Omar did not have permission to fire its antitank missiles at Omar. The CIA said it would violate our rules of engagement. When Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld heard about the incident, so enraged was he that he began kicking through glass doors at the Pentagon. Continue reading

Why Robert Morris Is A False Teacher

Robert Morris was the long-time pastor of Gateway Church. Currently, Max Lucado is the interim pastor of Gateway while they transition to find new leadership. Gateway Church boasted 100k attendance. Gateway Church is a typical charismatic, egalitarian, multicampus megachurch.”

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Darb Web) Pastor Robert Morris is the founding senior pastor of Gateway Church, a megachurch based in Dallas, Texas. He was born on July 29, 1961, in Houston, Texas. Growing up in a Christian family, Morris came to faith at the age of 15. He attended college at East Texas State University (now Texas A&M University-Commerce) but did not complete his degree. Instead, he felt called to enter full-time ministry. Continue reading

Identifying False Teachers: How to Train Your Powers of Discernment and Test the Spirits

“We are called to guard the gospel, to stand firm in the truth, and to reject anything that contradicts the Word of God. False teachers are wolves, and they will tear apart the flock if we let them. So don’t be fooled. Train your powers of discernment, test the spirits, and be a Berean. Because the stakes couldn’t be higher. Souls are at risk, and the truth of the gospel is too precious to compromise.”

(The Dissenter) There’s a plague of false teachers infecting the church today, spreading like a virus through congregations, ministries, and movements around the world. They’re everywhere, and the damage they cause is immeasurable. And you’d be surprised at the amount of emails I receive asking me to look into a particular movement or teacher—many of whom I’ve never even heard of. Continue reading

Data Dump Shows 650,000 Migrant Criminals, Suspect

(Neil Munro – Breitbart) President Joe Biden’s administration is allowing up to 650,000 criminal migrants and suspects — including at least 13,099 migrant murderers and 222,141 migrants facing criminal charges — to roam through American communities, according to a dramatic data dump by a House Republican.

“The data says that, among those not in detention, there are 425,431 convicted criminals,” reported Fox News, which got the information from Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX). The letter from ICE to Gonzalez says: Continue reading

Julie Roys Attacks John MacArthur Over Steve Lawson Scandal

“By including the compliments and history between Lawson and MacArthur, Roys is sinisterly going for guilt by association. Meanwhile, she has already started labeling Lawson an abuser, going so far as to cite a Texas law against clergy sexual abuse.”

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Most of the church scandals in 2024 have come from known egalitarians, including Mike Bickle of IHOPKC, Robert Morris of Gateway Church, and Tony Evans of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship. However, Steve Lawson is not an egalitarian, nor was he some oddball charismatic. In the wake of Steve Lawson’s adultery scandal bringing about his resignation from ministry and the downfall of his legacy, the knives have come out from the usual suspects: the feminists….

Forgiveness

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him in love, 5 by predestining us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He graciously bestowed on us in the Beloved. Ephesians 1:3-12 (LSB)  Read vs 7-10 on the site.

The key to understanding the passage above is in getting who the “us” is that Paul mentions repeatedly all through it. Whoever they are, they are indeed blessed. Of course Paul is talking about those who are called, those who believe the Gospel and are redeemed out of spiritual death unto eternal life in Christ…. Continue reading

A Closer Examination of the Concept of an ‘Inappropriate Relationship’

(Tom Rush – Truthscript) The internet is aflame with commentary on the recent revelation of the removal of Dr. Steve Lawson as pastor of Trinity Bible Church of Dallas due to an “inappropriate relationship.” The statement from the elders declares in part that they were “informed by Steve Lawson” of the issue. The details are sketchy, and I hope the elders will provide more clarity soon.

The elders’ statement includes the warning that we should all “be mindful of the words of 1 Corinthians 10:12, ‘Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.’” Indeed, a wise warning, particularly to those of us entrusted with the sacred duty of preaching God’s Word to His people.

Revoice Speaker Says Paul is Defending the LGBTQ+ Community from ‘Heterosexual Self-Righteousness’

“He paints the church as a bunch of gatekeepers, cruelly barring entry to the “weirdest, hardest, queerest” people. But isn’t that rich? Bennett pretends as though the gospel is some sort of social club, where anyone can walk in, toss their sin on the table, and get a pat on the back. Newsflash, the gospel isn’t a cozy blanket you wrap around your rebellion. It’s a fire that burns it away.”

(The Dissenter) The Revoice Conference is a coalition of “gay Christians” who collude annually to prop up their status as outspoken homosexuals and promote the gay agenda of full acceptance and inclusion in the ranks of churches in America. Led by gay activists such as Nate Collins and Preston Sprinkle, the Conference promotes an identity of “gay” while committing to a life of “celibacy.” After all, other forms of same-sex intimacy are acceptable within the movement. Continue reading

Joe Biden Says He Delegated ‘Everything’ to Kamala Harris: ‘Foreign Policy to Domestic Policy’

“While campaigning for Harris on The View on Wednesday, Biden appeared to blame Harris for the administration’s failure to reduce inflation, secure the southern border, and responsibly withdraw from Afghanistan.”

(Wendell Husebo – Breitbart) President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he delegated “everything” as commander-in-chief to Vice President Kamala Harris, including foreign policy and domestic policy.

The acknowledgment is significant because it contradicts Harris’s talking points. Harris has tried multiple times to distance herself from the Biden-Harris record. Continue reading

Who’s the Threat to ‘Democracy’?

“And lest you think Harris would only abuse the filibuster just to kill babies, you’ve got another think coming. During her blink-and-you-missed-it 2020 presidential campaign, she suggested dumping the filibuster to pass the Green New Deal: ‘If Republicans continue to block progress, I’ll get rid of the filibuster to pass a Green New Deal.'”

(Chris Queen – PJ Media) It’s almost become a cliché today when someone on the left calls Donald Trump a “threat to our democracy.” Never mind that we’re a republic; the breathless left wants you to believe that Trump will usher in some sort of dictatorship. Continue reading

Who are the Emergent Church leaders? Where are they now?

By Marsha West

Some of you may recall that in the late 1990s Evangelicalism was introduced to a movement that was “rethinking Christianity against the backdrop of postmodernism” (skepticism, subjectivism, moral relativism).  America’s younger generation of professing Christians who thought of themselves as enlightened began rethinking “Old Time Religion,” as they felt there was a need for a “new kind of Christianity.” So naturally these young progressive/liberals were drawn to the movement. Emergent Village, an official network, soon surfaced as one of the leading voices in the emerging “conversation” that was going on among Christians who felt “disillusioned and disenfranchised by the conventional ecclesial institutions of the late 20th century.” Continue reading
