“The sheer arrogance of it all is mind-boggling. Who does Stanley think he is to redefine Christianity? He’s not the first to try this, of course—liberal theologians have been doing it for centuries. But Stanley is particularly dangerous because he comes from a respected evangelical background, yet he is leading people down the exact same path that others have followed into heresy. It’s the same old liberal poison, dressed up in new packaging.”
(The Dissenter) Andy Stanley, the son of famed late pastor Charles Stanley, has once again taken the liberty of redefining Christianity on his own terms. In his latest sermon, he laid out a scandalous proposition … Christians, he suggests, need only believe in two miracles—the creation of the universe and the resurrection of Jesus. Just two. That’s it. Forget the rest. Continue reading
(Greg Piper – Just the News) Public school districts across the country face a daunting challenge from the world’s Abrahamic religions, their lobbying organizations, eminent legal scholars and half the states.
4 For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up by life. 5 Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge.
6 Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord— 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight— 8 we are of good courage and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:4-10 (LSB) Read verses 9-10 on the site.
(Lynn Pratt) “Soaking prayer,” which became trendy some years back, is billed as resting/soaking in the presence of God/the Holy Spirit. Sometimes actual prayer (that is, talking to God) is involved, but the emphasis seems mostly on having the mind clear/empty/open. And it’s obvious that participants are expecting something to happen right then. Assorted promos suggest that, as you soak, you might feel a warm/cold sensation, a tingling, a breeze; you might see an aura. You can also entertain a hope to hear God speak, be visited by an angel, understand the Bible better, “get results faster” (faster than what?), experience a healing, come out of spiritual dryness, receive a direct revelation… The idea is that soaking “allows the Lord to show his love for you.” (I’m confused. Since the Lord shows his love to me 24/7, I’m pretty sure he knows he’s “allowed” to.) 
(Jim Hoft – Gateway Pundit) A new cancer treatment protocol involving repurposed drugs Ivermectin (commonly known as a ‘horse dewormer’), Fenbendazole (a ‘dog dewormer’), and Mebendazole has recently passed peer review and is being heralded as a potential breakthrough in cancer therapy.
Smith argues that Trump’s “refuse[al] to say whether he would accept the election results” of 2020 (which saw unelected leaders usurp the authority of state legislatures and unilaterally change election procedure) and Trump’s expressing concern about potential fraud are grounds for prosecution and jail time.
“Zero cases of myocarditis or pericarditis were found in the unvaccinated group.”
(Elizabeth Prata – The End Time) Josh Daws, @JoshDaws, wrote on Twitter/X the following: Jacques Ellul on the role of the small group in spreading propaganda–The church has yet to fully reckon with how small groups, without strong pastoral oversight, can and have become vehicles for spreading woke ideology within congregations. The dynamics of small groups often favor conformity over true discipleship. The most assertive individual usually sets the tone, and the group’s consensus follows. This makes it easy for ideology, rather than genuine biblical teaching, to take root.
Several Facebook friends have sent a message to me written by Sandy Barker-Mitchell. I have two problems with Sandy’s message. But before I address those, here’s what Barker-Mitchell wrote:
(Protestia) Jonathan Cahn is a Messianic Jewish Rabbi who never misses an opportunity to falsely prophesy, promote speculative revelations of economic collapse that never come to pass, or treat the bible as a magical codebook from which he can uncover hidden mysteries and secrets that he can populate his next book with.
45 For I am Yahweh who brought you up from the land of Egypt to be your God; thus you shall be holy, for I am holy.’” Leviticus 11:45 (LSB) 
(Cristina Laila – Gateway Pundit) O’Keefe Media Group on Thursday released a second round of Meta engineers revealing censorship practices.
“After failing to understand Matthew 25, and also the Good Samaritan, Russell Moore then uses the Big Eva “Imago DEI” argument to assert that invaders are the least of these and should be welcomed into the country. Russell Moore makes it clear it was Stuckey’s politics, not her exegesis that he took issue with. Russell Moore has been pushing open borders for over a decade.”
“The good news is, after seeing how cravenly the corporate press carried water for the Clinton campaign’s false narrative about Trump and Russia, America is recognizing and dismissing media hoaxes more quickly these days. And as the life cycle of each media lie shrinks, the dishonesty — dare I say, disinformation? — has been attempted even more rapidly and more desperately.”
What’s next? “God told me this, God told me that.” And who’s to say otherwise? When personal revelation becomes the standard, truth becomes relative. It’s a theological free-for-all, where anyone can claim God’s voice to justify their whims, and who can argue with “God told me”?
“Even more alarming is that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is currently tracking over 425,000 illegal immigrants convicted of various crimes, while 226,000 face pending criminal charges, all of whom have been released into the United States under the regime’s lenient immigration enforcement.”
“The Church in the west has been passive for far too long. We have forgotten what it means to fight for our convictions. We live at a time when the wolves are at the door and many of the supposed gatekeepers have not only welcomed them in with open arms but have strongly chastised those who tried to stop them. They pat the wolves, stone the prophets, and wonder why their sheep keep disappearing.” 
“Either Brown is the most gullible dupe in all of Christian history or he is intentionally participating in White’s deceptions.”
“On the site Witches Lore (not recommended) I stumbled on 100 Beginner Witchcraft Tips. Here are several practices that undiscerning Christians are involved in, hopefully because they’re unfamiliar with the occult origins.”
“How do we know that this is what Johnson said and that CBS deceptively edited the interview to avoid airing information damaging to Brennan’s preferred narrative? Because Johnson recorded the interview himself as he was doing it.”
“To [Keith] Johnson and all those like him: Are you listening? Will you repent publicly? You claim to have a “Jesus First” approach. Ok then; we would like you to start sharing the biblical Jesus who calls sinners to repent and believe, not the imaginary Jesus of this anti-Christian age who uses “homosexual orientation” as a morally neutral category of personhood. We reject the banal claim that we merely disagree about a “vision for cultural engagement.” That’s a smoke screen. We are disagreeing about theology, and you are promoting a damnable one.” 
“Kamala has zero interest in confronting those problems, and even if she did, she wouldn’t know how. If she had any specific solutions to vexing problems, we would have already heard them.”
“Mayorkas’ easy migration policies were unchallenged by Harris when she “ran away” from the border issue in 2021 as Biden tried — weakly — to get control over Mayorkas and his business backers. She also endorsed Mayorkas’ overall policies in her campaign’s economic platform.”
“What we witnessed is journalistic malfeasance on an epic level. I won’t go so far as to accuse CBS of “rigging” the election because they are not actually interfering in the voting process nor physically meddling in the operations. What they certainly do seem to be guilty of however is trying to influence the election by gaslighting the American public and basically lying to them.”
