20 Our soul is patient for Yahweh;
He is our help and our shield.
21 For our heart is glad in Him,
Because we trust in His holy name.
22 Let Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, be upon us,
As we wait for You. Psalms 33:20-22 (LSB)
The movements we are seeing all around us, whether Christian in form or not, that are attempts to improve the world, to bring in some form of utopian existence or a new level of evolution, or whatever; are all simply examples of the same thing that happened in the Garden of Eden when Man rejected God’s plan and went with his own (Genesis 3). The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11) is an example of men coming together in disobedience to God’s command to try to improve on what He has promised to give them…. Continue reading
Key Provisions of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBA): Scroll down to read the provisions…
(Matt Vespa – Townhall) It’s over, folks. President Trump and congressional Republicans aimed to pass the reconciliation package by July 4, and they succeeded. It was a tumultuous journey, as there were more than a few Republicans who tried to make a spectacle, causing unnecessary drama throughout the procedural phase, but it’s now over. The House passed the big, beautiful bill, which means the Trump tax cuts are made permanent, illegals are kicked off Medicaid, and the immigration enforcement agenda is fully funded. The border was secure, and it will remain safe. 
“If you’ve been paying attention to the cultural shifting sands around you, you’re likely familiar with unbelievers using the Bible against Christians and even against itself. The phrase is biblical, but the application and meaning are anti-biblical (antinomian, to be precise).”
“He was not mistakenly deported. If you’re illegal, you’re going. We don’t abide by or accept the liberal media’s fake news nonsense and extraneous linguistic gymnastics to defend someone getting the boot. He’s a gang member who is going to be deported again. As for the supposed administrative error, such things happen. Oh well.”
“Kevin DeYoung is someone who his orthodox on paper but compromised in practice. With him in authority, you get feminized managerial liberalism, which is what was shown at the PCA. This is ultimately why Kevin DeYoung should never be given power, because he will wield it against people who are fighting for the church.”
“Riley Gaines, another athlete who tied Thomas in NCAA competition, called the resolution “further proof that President Trump and his government agencies are committed to a pro-woman agenda.” Gaines is right. This administration isn’t just talking about women’s rights—they’re actually defending them, sending a clear message to every college and university in America: You can’t trample women’s civil rights in the name of political correctness and expect to get away with it.”
“Several years ago, Baylor University’s Board of Regents granted the creation of Prism, the pro-LGBTQ group on campus that sponsored the aforementioned queer-sex ed course, and which has continued pushing for greater LGBTQ representation on campus. At this rate, Baylor will be fully LGBTQ inclusive in about a decade.”
“It was reductionism dressed up in religious finery, offering a shortcut through the wilderness of Christian life. And the result was what you’d expect from any spiritual vending machine… a faith devoid of repentance, maturity, or true accountability.”
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Jonathan Roumie has become a major celebrity in the Christian community for his portrayal of himself as Jesus in The Chosen. But many Christians are unaware that Jonathan Roumie is not a Christian, adding an extra layer of danger to both The Chosen and his broader celebrity.
“The Supreme Court of the United States made sure that last Friday was not the slow news day that Fridays typically are. The justices were once again pressed into duty because of the antics of the chronic sufferers of Trump Derangement Syndrome. They almost certainly have better things to do, but it was time for the Judicial Branch to police itself.”
“We’ve seen this all before. The left has always projected their filth onto their enemies. They accuse others of the very sins they’re secretly committing behind closed doors. They called Trump a tyrant while building a surveillance state. They called [Judge] Roy Moore a predator while handing out Pulitzers to one. They scream “fascist” while pushing Marxist garbage and dragging this country into censorship, lawfare, and economic despair.”
“When the arc of history seemed to bend toward normalizing the Queer, connecting the trans cause to same-sex marriage seemed like a sure-fire win for the trans. Hard and soft power went all in on this strategy. What happened is different. Transing kids, platforming drag queens, and grooming children with comprehensive sex education have tainted same-sex marriage and the Gay Pride gambit among many. We are passing Peak Pride as a result.”
(Bill O’Reilly) Let’s talk contracts here. Social contracts. If you are an American citizen who pays taxes you are owed certain things. That’s the agreement the Constitution memorializes, that the feds and states are obligated to take shielding actions on your behalf.
“The fruit of online apologetics is such that those who desire attention can receive it through outlandish claims and outright misrepresentation. This is not limited to Roman Catholics or even Eastern Orthodox online but is observable in Protestant accounts who outright lie about distinctive Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox beliefs. In engaging with these beliefs one must have the utmost care to not bear false witness, not for the sake of being a nice guy or being winsome but because every idle word will be held before you on the day of judgment.”
“For many people of faith, there are few religious acts more important than the religious education of their children […] And the practice of educating one’s children in one’s religious beliefs, like all religious acts and practices, receives a generous measure of constitutional protection…”
