Be Not Overcome by Evil

1 Therefore I exhort you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a sacrifice—living, holy, and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may approve what the will of God is, that which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:1-2 (LSB) 

In our daily Christian walk it is a rare day in which we take every thought capture and, through our active repentance, successfully deny ourselves through every circumstance. I don’t think I could claim that I have successfully done this the majority of the time…. Continue reading

Dem Senator Says Americans Will Be ‘Appalled’ By Interim Report on Trump Assassination Attempt

(Rick Moran – PJ Media) Democratic Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal made some stunning comments on Thursday following a closed-door briefing by acting Secret Service director Richard Rowe.

Rowe testified before a joint committee looking into the security failures during the July 13 assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. The Joint Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and Senate Committee on the Judiciary will release an interim report “shortly” according to Blumenthal. Continue reading

Bill O’Reilly Exposes the Horror We Face If Harris Wins

“She co-signed Bernie’s healthcare bill, and she will do whatever she can to undermine private health insurance. She will try to break health insurance companies, and our health insurance policies will skyrocket.”

Sentinel reported that Marxist Harvard Professor Kaus attended the DNC Convention committees and laid out some of the most alarming goals Democrats have once Kamala Harris wins. It included ending the filibuster, destroying the Third Branch of government, and passing every initiative they had on Voting Rights. Bill O’Reilly presented his views on Sid Rosenberg’s radio show this morning. He added it to the list, and it will make you ill. It’s not only logical, it’s alarming. Continue reading

IHOPKC Finally Investigated By Independent Outside Group With Law-Enforcement Expertise

Firefly, a neutral third-party, is comprised of “current and retired law enforcement investigators, seasoned therapists, and forensic interviewers from throughout the country.”

(Protestia) For nearly a year, former International House of Prayer-Kansas City (IHOPKC) leaders known as The Advocacy Group have been clamoring and insisting that Mike Bickle and his former ministry undergo a thorough investigation by an independent third-party group, and it looks like they’ve gotten their wish. Continue reading

Former Clinton Advisor Calls For Internal Investigation Into ABC for Rigging Presidential Debate Against Trump

(Christina Laila – Gateway Pundit) Former Clinton advisor Mark Penn called for an investigation into ABC News for rigging the presidential debate against Trump.

Trump and Kamala Harris faced off for their first presidential debate on Tuesday.

It was 3 against 1. The debate moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, fact-checked Trump at every turn yet and they ignored all of Kamala Harris’s lies.

Kamala Harris told over two dozen lies and dodged questions but the moderators did not fact-check her.

NOT ONCE. Continue reading

Cultural Christianity Is Not Enough

“We need to know, hold to, and unashamedly teach what the Bible teaches regarding the existence of God, the origin of man, and the design of the sexes. But to take it further, to understand that we also need to know, hold to, and unashamedly teach the attributes of God, like His holiness, justice, and goodness.”  

(Jacob Tanner – Clear Truth Media) The Psalmist says, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain” (Ps. 127:1). Continue reading

Everything You Need to Know About Kamala in Her Own Words in One Place

“We have to stay woke. Everybody needs to be woke. And you can talk about if you’re the wokist or woker, but just stay more woke than less woke.”
(Rebecca Mansour & Alana Mastrangelo – Breitbart) Kamala Harris has given a single televised interview and no press conferences since becoming the Democrats’ nominee for president. Given the establishment media’s unprecedented blocking, tackling, and gaslighting (including the 9/10 debate), we’ve assembled over 100 videos of Kamala Harris in her own words so that the American people can see where she stands and who she is.

On the site is a list of links to must watch videos that reveal who she really is, starting with… Continue reading

Exposing the Campaign for Immorality

By John MacArthur

The 2024 Democratic National Convention is a revelation of the sinful depths to which our society has sunk. It’s a celebration of all that God hates.

A keynote speaker, Oprah Winfrey, declared that without aborting babies there is no American dream. Achieving limitless abortion is at the top of their agenda. The Democratic party has become a death cult.

“For he who finds me finds life and obtains favor from the Lord. But he who sins against me injures himself; all those who hate me love death.” PROVERBS 8:35–36 Continue reading

ABC Moderators Were Lying: EIGHT ‘Aborted’ Babies Were Born Alive & Then Left to Die in Minnesota

Unless I’ve missed a memo, Minnesota is a state in the United States of America. So why did Linsey Davis choose to interject herself into the presidential debate, correct and chastise one of the candidates, and smugly declare there’s “no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born”?

(Scott Pinsker – PJ Media) “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born,” said ABC debate moderator Linsey Davis, as she smugly “fact-checked” the Republican nominee. “Madam vice president, I want to get your response to President Trump.” Continue reading

The Falling Away

1 Now we ask you, brothers, with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, 2 that you not be quickly shaken in your mind or be alarmed whether by a spirit or a word or a letter as if from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. 3 Let no one in any way deceive you, for it has not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the sanctuary of God, exhibiting himself as being God. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 (LSB) 

I confess that for many years that 2 Thessalonians 2:3 seemed to me “not to fit” with the Eschatology that I was being fed on a regular basis. I even heard one very well known “Prophecy Expert” say that the “falling away” as some translations say or “apostasy” as the LSB says in v3 was describing the secret Rapture of the Church…. Continue reading

This one question Harris refused to answer at the debate says it ALL…

“Team Harris knows Americans aren’t better off—we’re worse than ever. That’s not even up for debate—no pun intended. So, they’re betting on the idea that enough people would rather stay in hopelessness, poverty, and endless wars than see President Trump retake the White House. That’s how stupid and brainwashed they think American voters are, and sadly, in many cases, they’re right.” 

(Revolver) The much-anticipated debate between President Trump and Kamala Harris took place last night. President Trump didn’t need to do much—he just had to hold his ground and remind everyone that Kamala’s had nearly four years to fix all the problems she keeps talking about, yet instead, everything’s only gotten worse…. Continue reading

Alistair Begg Announces He’s Retiring From Senior Pastor at Parkside Church

“Earlier this year however, he came under intense criticism and was dropped from several radio stations when, during a recent program of Truth for Life, Begg offered a scenario where a Christian woman called in saying that her grandson is about to marry a ‘transgendered person’ (either another man who has ‘transitioned’ to a ‘woman’, or a woman who has ‘transitioned’ into a ‘man’) and wanted to know if she should attend the wedding.”

(Protestia) During the September 9 evening service, Alistair Begg announced to the congregation of Parkside Church that he’ll be formally stepping down from his role as Senior Pastor in a year’s time.

In the last few weeks, I have informed the elders of the church of my decision to relinquish my role as the senior pastor here at Parkside. Not tonight, not tomorrow night, and not for twelve months of nights. But on the fourteenth of September, 2025, God willing, I will make it that long. Continue reading

Preston Sprinkle Assembles LGBTQ and Other Woke Activists to Release New Study Bible

“Do you think their Study Bible will be a book about the gospel, sin, salvation, and the glory of God? Or will it be a manual for social justice activism, LGBTQ affirmation, and wealth redistribution?”

(The Dissenter) Today’s the day, folks! Preston Sprinkle, the theologian extraordinaire of the pro-LGBTQ leftist evangelical machine, founder of the Center for Faith, Sexuality, and Gender, and one of the original board members of Revoice, is back with his latest attempt to completely undermine biblical orthodoxy. Continue reading

The Debate Was So Biased It Was Divorced From Reality. Trump Should Refuse To Do Another

“It was noted often on social media that Trump was really debating three people. That’s always the case for the Republican in these MSM-hosted debates though. Complaining about that is like going to an NBA game and whining about all of the tall people on the court. Yes, Trump should have been better prepared for it but in my opinion, he should never have agreed to an ABC debate in the first place.”  Stephen Kruiser

(John Daniel Davidson – The Federalist) Tuesday night during the presidential debate between former President Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, the fact-checks were flying, but only in one direction. As expected, ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis were criminally biased, making the debate effectively three-on-one against Trump and practically amounting to an in-kind donation to the Harris campaign. Continue reading

Your Kids Need REAL Answers To Hard Questions

(Vanessa Hunt – Real Truth Media) I felt his little body tense up next to me in the pew. We had arrived at one of those interludes during the worship portion of the church service where everything gets a bit quieter, lights are lowered, the music softens and the worship leader begins to speak from the heart; a mini-sermon if you will. “Church”, he said, “If you don’t enjoy singing in worship here on earth then you’re definitely not going to enjoy heaven!”

As soon as I heard those words my heart sank because I knew how they would be interpreted by my inquisitive, busy, rambunctious 8-year-old son…. Continue reading

Christianity Today Editor Urges Parents to Ship Children Off to Public School Indoctrination Camps

“This is about as well-thought-out as sending lambs into a den of wolves and calling it “strength training” for the lambs. McDade, and her ilk—people like Russell Moore, David French, Mike Cosper, and every other wolf in sheep’s clothing trying to convince Christians that their kids need exposure to secular indoctrination camps—are deeply confused at best, and dangerous at worst.”

(The Dissenter) Stefani McDade, a cronie of Russell Moore—both of whom seem to have taken up residence as thought-leaders in leftist Christianity—has been named the “theology editor” at Christianity Today. Yes, that Christianity Today—once a respectable outlet for serious Christians but now a glorified progressive mouthpiece masquerading as a platform for the faithful. Continue reading

The Kamala Mystery

“But there is a counter-strategy and that is Donald Trump seizing the moment on Tuesday evening to “muse” about things he would like Kamala to address.  Not questions from Trump, just statements. Such as, “As an American I’m confused how the 1.4 inflation rate I left the country turned into 9 percent under Biden-Harris. It would be great if my opponent could explain that.”

(Bill O’Reilly) We the people don’t know much about history, as the song goes.  Especially where Vice President Harris fits into it. It’s not our fault.  Kamala won’t say how she will solve the massive problems Joe Biden created or even what her vision for the country actually is. Continue reading

Enjoying the Anger of Jesus

“Perhaps we’re shocked by an angry Jesus. This Jesus may be less familiar and perhaps even less attractive. But this is not only an essential aspect of his character; it’s also good news. We can and should enjoy the anger of Jesus.”

(Tim Chester) Here’s a surprise. In preparation to write about how we relate to Jesus day by day in the here and now, I re-read the Gospels. I was looking out for how he related to people when he was on earth as pointers to how he relates to his people now from heaven. Much of what I found was what I expected. He cares, protects, energizes, touches, and intercedes for his people—then and now. But one thing took me by surprise: Jesus on earth was often angry. Continue reading

House Republicans put Hunter Biden on hold, switch investigative focus to Harris, Walz

“Walz long promoted a Minnesota-based medical research center with a history of working with the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.” 

(Charlotte Hazard – Just the News) As election day is just two months away, House Republicans will shift their focus away from investigating first son Hunter Biden and instead investigate Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz.

House Republicans have already launched probes into Minnesota Democratic Gov. Walz and in the coming days, Harris is expected to be investigated by the House. Continue reading

Pure Fire: Gov. Sarah Sanders Hits the Big Issue With the Cheneys, Other ‘Republicans’ Endorsing Harris

(Becca Lower – Red State) Liz Cheney’s fifteen minutes were up several years ago, to borrow the famous phrase from the late, pop artist/filmmaking genius Andy Warhol. Yet she persists, seemingly only fixated on one goal in life: Demonizing former President Donald Trump and doing whatever she possibly can to prevent voters from returning him to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in November.

RedState has written many stories on her and her family’s (among others’) recent endorsement of the radical leftist Dem nominee, Kamala Harris. Continue reading

What is the Purpose of Being Filled With the Spirit?

15 Therefore look carefully how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 On account of this, do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, Ephesians 5:15-18 (LSB) 

From September 2001 to December 2012 my wife and I lived in the Kansas City area because I was employed by a large hospital management group that was located in Lenexa, Kansas. I was their Senior Database Administrator. In Kansas City, Missouri is a charismatic “church” that calls itself the International House of Prayer. While we lived there that church advertised heavily on TV during the evening news hour…. Continue reading

Do Not Worry

22 And he said to his disciples, “Therefore, I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you may eat, nor for your body, what clothes you may put on. 23 For the soul is more than food and the body more than clothing. 24 Consider the ravens that they do not sow nor reap, they have neither a storeroom nor a barn, and God feeds them. How much more worth are you than the birds? 25 And which of you by worrying is able to add upon his lifespan a cubit? 26 If then you are not able to do as little a thing as that, why do you worry about the rest? (Luke 12:22-34 translated from the NA28 Greek text) Read verses 27-34 on the site.

Over the last several days (or is it weeks?) as I have written various posts about the Sovereignty of God in Salvation, I have found myself in a crossfire of sorts. It’s been a while since the accuser has had such a field day with so much help from his minions who are mired so deeply in their religious traditions that they are blind to Biblical truth no matter how clearly it is presented to them….

God’s Plumbline

7 Thus He showed me, and behold, the Lord was standing by a wall made with a plumb line, and in His hand was a plumb line. Amos 7:7 (LSB) 

In John Bunyan’s classic The Pilgrim’s Progress, the characters’ names usually define their character. For instance there is Ignorance. He refuses to believe Christian and Hopeful when they tell him that unless he goes through the narrow gate to begin his pilgrimage, he will not be allowed into the gate of the Celestial City. Then there is Talkative who equates making a fuss about one’s sin with actual repentance…. Continue reading
