(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) The WOKE army, which might go to war with China or Russia, is considering a policy called a “compassionate reassignment” permitting soldiers to request a transfer to a different area if they feel state or local laws discriminate against them because of their gender.
In addition to gender, the service member could cite sex, religion, race, or pregnancy as a reason to move. Continue reading
“Maybe someone in the West Wing should establish an Office for Explaining What the President Really Meant to Say. Obviously, it would be a full-time, high-pressure job, presumably with a high turnover.”
(Stephen Green – PJ Media) Presidentish Joe Biden said in Tokyo on Monday that the United States would “get involved militarily to defend Taiwan,” but now the White House is scrambling to clarify what Biden really meant.
There he goes again. Continue reading
(The Dissenter) The Dissenter has been covering the story of the Southern Baptist Convention’s (SBC) political hit job perpetrated by Russell Moore, an ex-employee of the SBC’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. After he departed the denomination to join the staff at the apostate “Christian” publication, Christianity Today, to continue his liberal agenda, Moore leaked a letter to the press claiming he had knowledge of sex abuse involving women and children dating back nearly two years and alleged that SBC leaders pressured him to cover up these abuses. Continue reading
(Protestia) Willow Creek Community Church, once a multi-campus 25,000 member church founded by Bill Hybels that pioneered the church growth and seeker-sensitive movement – the demonic practice of gearing everything about a church service to be as comfortable and friendly to non-believing “seekers” as possible, is crashing and burning.
The church announced that they were cutting their staff budget by $6.5 million dollars and axing 30% of the employees, the result of losing over 10,000 congregants in the last 3 years: Continue reading
“Is the biothreat real? Is is imminent? Does it justify the global media hype? As I was waiting in an airport lounge to travel from USA to the UK two days ago, I saw a newsreel from CNN which was breathlessly reporting on this “threat” while displaying historic images of patients suffering from Smallpox disease. This provides a classical example of public health fearporn, in my opinion…”
(Robert W. Malone) I keep getting asked the same question again and again; is this outbreak of monkey pox a real threat, or is this another case of overstated and weaponized public health messaging? I am going to save my answer to this question for the end of this article and instead focus on what monkey pox is, the nature and characteristics of the associated disease, what we know and don’t know. Continue reading
1 Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, 3 being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. (Ephesians 4:1-3 NASB)
When I was first enlisted to become part of the CRN team, I was actually quite shocked for two reasons. The first reason was that Ken Silva had actually chosen me. I was very surprised about that. However, sadly, the other surprise was that there was an immediate effort by some professing Christians bent on stopping what we were doing…. Continue reading

(Spencer Lindquist – Breitbart) Amid pushback from parents and Republican leaders, Disney has launched a “Pride Collection” initiative, which includes an LGBTQ pride-themed line of plush toys marketed to young children.
Among the plush toys from Disney, which were made in conjunction with the squish mallow company, are various Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and Stitch, all of which feature a rainbow design. Continue reading
“Hillary Clinton herself personally approved spreading the story to the news media, despite the concerns about its accuracy.”
(John Solomon – Just the News) In an era where the hunt for disinformation has become a political obsession, Hillary Clinton has mostly escaped having to answer what role she played in spreading the false Russia collusion narrative that gripped America for nearly three years.
On Friday, that dodge ended with a most unlikely witness: her former campaign manager Robby Mook, who was supposed to be a witness helping the defense of her former campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann on a charge of lying to the FBI. Continue reading
“She has completely embraced every error and heresy the film [American Gospel] that she was once featured in, set out to expose.”
(The Dissenter) Jackie Hill Perry, who recently made headlines after claiming that “God primarily deals with her in dreams,” says that you don’t need “discernment bloggers” to teach you how to spot false teachings.
In 2018, Hill Perry was featured in a prominent and widely-viewed “discernment” film titled American Gospel, which turned the spotlight largely on the Word of Faith gospel that has infected the American Church…. Continue reading
“…I have determined that the point has come in which I must make a public declaration that she is not to be admitted to Holy Communion unless and until she publicly repudiates her support for abortion ‘rights’ and confess and receive absolution for her cooperation in this evil in the sacrament of Penance.”
(Newsmax) The archbishop of San Francisco told House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., that she is barred from receiving communion over her support for abortion rights, the archdiocese said in a letter released Friday. Continue reading
‘Trust me, once they get the power, Thy’ll use it’
(Art Moore – WND) An Associated Press “fact check” chastises former Congress member Michele Bachmann for claiming the Biden administration’s proposed amendments to the World Health Organization’s regulations amount to ceding substantial power to the U.N. agency’s director-general, allowing him to unilaterally declare a health emergency in the United States. Continue reading
34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. Matthew 10:34 (NASB)
I have been working on writing a commentary. It is very tiring, but also exciting as I dig into an Epistle that I thought I knew pretty well, but now I think I will almost have it memorized. Here is a list of the different offenses of the Gospel that can cause us to not be the witnesses that we should be.
26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? Matthew 16:26 (NASB)
“Here’s the problem. When we do know the source and we know the source is theologically problematic, it becomes pretty difficult to sing that song without thinking of the theological associations. So…I would say don’t use it in worship.”
(The Dissenter) If you’ve followed us at The Dissenter (formerly Reformation Charlotte) at all, you know we’ve covered the contemporary Christian music movement and have written about several of its mainstream figures, including Kari Jobe and Hillsong…. Continue reading
“It is a revolution that abolishes all of the constructs of human identity, whether it is sexual identity, family identity, or national identity. Globalism claims that human identity is created by men and does not originate in God (who they claim does not exist). God-given identities are evil, in this postmodern age, put in place to enslave women, blacks, LGBT people, and the like.”
(Leo Hohmann) Globalism is a demonic spirit that has infected every nation, even those least likely to realize a single long-term benefit from it. That would include the United States and Israel. Both of these nations were much stronger when they relied on their own people for manufacturing, supply chains and military protection of secure borders. Continue reading
A bombshell study – from the National Institutes of Health and Moderna, no less – should end debate
(Alex Berenson) Unvaccinated people are much more likely to develop broad antibody immunity after Covid infections than people who have received mRNA shots, a new study shows.
The gap remains large whether people had mild, moderate, or severe Covid infections, the study showed – undercutting a crucial argument that vaccine advocates have made to defend the shots. Continue reading
9 Therefore, we also from the day which we heard, do not cease praying for you and asking that you be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 to walk worthy of the Lord in every way pleasing to Him in every good work bearing fruit and growing in the knowledge of God. Colossians 1:9-10 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)
It seems my life has become a continuous series of tests and trials, putting me into places of contention in which it is clearly apparent to me that the way I have gone before is not how God would have me go and be walking worthy of the Lord in every way pleasing to Him in every good work bearing fruit and growing in the knowledge of God…. Continue reading
(Harris Rigby – Not the Bee) Utah’s Burgess Owens just drops truth bomb after truth bomb in this Wednesday speech chastising Janet Yellen and the Biden administration for saying that abortion is a boon to the economy.
In the eyes of Yellen and the Biden Democrats, the country is better off without black babies being born.
Burgess Owens has a different take. Continue reading
(Miranda Divine – New York Post) One of the most galling aspects of the Hunter Biden laptop saga is that the 51 former intelligence officials who played such a critical role in suppressing The Post’s stories and giving Joe Biden cover before the 2020 election have never been brought to account.
The “Dirty 51” lied by painting our stories as Russian disinformation in an Oct. 19, 2020, letter they signed and delivered to Politico five days after The Post exposé and three days before the final presidential debate of the election campaign. Continue reading
“The Bidenites promote identity politics as a good way to stir up the pot, to demonize supposed oppressors and deify the oppressed—all as a way of retaining political power. For the Left, living in a socialist nation controlled by an elite is far preferable to living in a free and prosperous one answerable only to the people.”
(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) If an administration deliberately wished to cause havoc on the border, to ensure fuel was nearly unaffordable, to create a crime wave, to spark 1970s hyperinflation, and to rekindle racial tensions, what would it have done differently than what Joe Biden has done? Continue reading
(Mary Dowling – Independent Sentinel) This post will make you sick if you’re normal. How anyone could engage in this type of child abuse and still walk free is perplexing. We are turning into a US hellhole.
The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), the international medical association sets the guidelines for transitioning children as if that should be happening at all. Continue reading
I began reading John Owen’s book Communion With The Triune God edited by Dr. Kelly Kapic and Justin Taylor back in 2008 as we awaited the birth of our 1st grandson. I read it in the waiting rooms prior to the various ultra-sound tests and other doctor visits that go with that. On the day of his birth, I read a few pages and stopped as that blessed event finally arrived. For some reason, I put the book back on the shelf with the bookmark in place and left it there when I got back home. Then at the end of April of this year, I reached a level of mental and spiritual exhaustion that required that I take some time off…. Continue reading
In His Image rightly explained who and what Gavin Ortlund is. In His Image said, “Don’t grant him the title pastor. He isn’t. He’s a wolf who exists solely to help the dialectic progress in Evangelicalism. That’s the whole point of his life, moving the dialectic forward towards the Hegelian-Marxist utopia.”
(Capstone Report) Earlier, Gavin Ortlund insulted the church as somehow unwilling to talk about White Supremacy—despite everyone in evangelicalism talking nonstop about white supremacy since about 2010. Ortlund doubled down on this when challenged over his remarks. Ortlund says that watching Tucker Carlson is proof that white supremacy is a problem in the church. Continue reading
“There are no two ways about it. Actual white supremacy is evil, and wicked, and must be condemned by the Church. Murder in any form, from mass shootings to abortion, must be condemned by those who stand on the Word of God as our foundation of truth and standard of morality.”
(The Dissenter) You’re probably aware of the shooting at the hands of a self-described white supremacist that took place at a Buffalo, NY supermarket and who killed nine black people and two white people. And you’re probably also aware of the many opinions, from social media to mainstream news, permeating the waves…. Continue reading
(Tyler Olson – Fox News) A House Intelligence subcommittee Tuesday is holding the first congressional hearing on UFOs in 50 years, as building evidence on the sightings raises more questions than answers.
“There are a lot of unexplained aerial phenomena. We don’t know what they are, and they can’t be easily rationalized as weather phenomenon or balloons or anything else. So it’s quite a mystery,” House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said of the hearing. Continue reading
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) In the immediate aftermath of the mass shooting in Buffalo, N.Y. on Saturday, the political left (and several RINOs) rushed to blame conservatives, Fox News, and even Tucker Carlson specifically for radicalizing the shooter.
This, of course, goes against the shooter’s alleged manifesto, in which he describes himself as a former communist who now falls in the “mild-moderate authoritarian left category.” Continue reading
