Pope ‘Blesses’ Block of Ice During Pagan Earth-Worship Ceremony

“The world applauds, the people are deceived, and judgment is certain. For the Lord will not share His glory with another, nor will He suffer His name to be invoked over pagan rites. Rome has chosen her gospel. And it is not Christ.”

(The Dissenter) If you needed more proof that Rome is just another pagan temple dressed in white robes, look no further than this spectacle. The so-called “vicar of Christ” stood before a block of ice, mumbling prayers to “creation,” while a chorus of voices chanted like acolytes in some eco-ritual. It wasn’t worship of God—it was worship of the earth, the very exchange Paul warned about in Romans 1. Continue reading

Wretched man that I am!

14 For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, having been sold into bondage under sin. 15 For what I am working out, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. 16 But if I do the very thing I do not want, I agree with the Law, that it is good. 17 So now, no longer am I the one working it out, but sin which dwells in me. Romans 7:14-25 (LSB) Read verses 18-25 on the site.

There is a great deal of false teaching going on in the visible Church in our time. One of those teachings has to do with the nature of salvation. Even though I grew up going to Church I was not a Christian until January 1986 and there are even times as I look at how I have matured and become dedicated more and more to my devotion to walk before my Lord according to His will at all times, I wonder if my true salvation took place back in 2004 instead….

Restoring ‘Warrior Ethos’

“Good morning and welcome to the War Department because the era of the Department of Defense is over,” Hegseth told the gathered brass. “From this moment forward, the only mission of the newly restored Department of War is this: warfighting — preparing for war and preparing to win.”

(Nate Jackson – The Patriot Post) “Could have been an email,” complained an anonymous defense official to Politico about the major military brass meeting called by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the commander-in-chief, Donald Trump.

Respectfully, Tuesday’s gathering of roughly 800 high-level military officers in Quantico, Virginia, was worth attending in person. Continue reading

‘Should I do events if there is a false teacher present?’ Navigating cultural moments with discernment

“God will bring those He wants to hear the truth, to us. Yes, we go into the world. Yes, we plead, ‘send me!’ But we don’t associate with false teachers to do it. We don’t abandon our position because of a feeling and go chasing waves. Waves subside. The Gospel doesn’t. The naive newbie, the seeking heart, the unsure penitent needs to know where there is a clear line between truth and false.”

(Elizabeth Prata – The End Time) In this post, I discuss the importance of maintaining theological integrity and not compromising the Gospel despite cultural moments that seem to indicate a softening or readiness for the Gospel. I critique Alisa Childers’ self-announced shift towards softening her stance on not associating with false teachers and indicating she may now do so in the future, if asked. I state that this undermines credibility and dilutes the message of Christ. We need clear separation from falsehood in ministry. Continue reading

TGC Council Member Suggests Charlie Kirk Was Murdered Because He Wasn’t Sensitive Enough

“So let’s get this straight. A man is gunned down in cold blood—by a homosexual in a romantic relationship with a trans-queer—for speaking out about how sexual perversion and transgenderism are negatively impacting our society, and the lesson Davis draws isn’t about political violence or spiritual warfare—it’s that Charlie wasn’t sensitive enough.”

(The Dissenter) This is an astonishing clip, honestly. Jim Davis—a TGC Council Member—stood in his pulpit, polished, legs crossed, effete, and smugly measured, after Charlie Kirk’s assassination and thinks the lesson in all of this is “gospel sensitivity” could have prevented it. Continue reading

Seth Gruber Calls Out Sean McDowell

Biola could have been saved and fought for by Sean, but when the testing point came, he flinched and has been flinching ever since. It reminds me of a line from Tommy Lasells in The Crown series: “It’s in the small things that the rot starts. Do the wrong thing once, it’s easy to do it again.”

(Evangelical Dark Web) Seth Gruber is a pro-life activist behind the 1916 Project film. On Sunday, he called out YouTube apologist Sean McDowell after apparent back channel attempts. Now, Gruber goes scorched earth labeling McDowell a coward unwilling to contend for the faith in his own backyard particularly as it relates to his boss, Ed Stetzer.

The rest of this article is adapted from Seth Gruber’s thread, with receipts linked. Continue reading

JK Rowling Gets Brutally Honest About Emma Watson

“…Emma asked someone to pass on a handwritten note from her to me, which contained the single sentence ‘I’m so sorry for what you’re going through’ (she has my phone number). This was back when the death, rape and torture threats against me were at their peak, at a time when my personal security measures had had to be tightened considerably and I was constantly worried for my family’s safety. Emma had just publicly poured more petrol on the flames, yet thought a one line expression of concern from her would reassure me of her fundamental sympathy and kindness.”

(Amy Curtis – Townhall) Last week, actress Emma Watson appeared to be extending an olive branch of sorts to author JK Rowling. Rowling, who created the character of Hermione and made Watson a star, was not keen on the idea several days ago. Continue reading

Who is judged at the Great White Throne?

9 “I kept looking Until thrones were set up, And the Ancient of Days was seated; His clothing was like white snow And the hair of His head like pure wool. His throne was ablaze with fire, Its wheels were a burning fire. 10 A river of fire was flowing And coming out from before Him; Thousands upon thousands were attending Him, And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; The court sat, And the books were opened. Daniel 7:9-10 (LSB) 

Before we look at Revelation 20:11-15, take a moment to reflect on the carnage being wrought upon the visible church in our time by the very men who, by their own positions, should be shepherding the sheep. Instead, they are actually doing the very things to bring about the famine of hearing the Word of God and, hence, spiritual darkness seems to be all around us right in the midst of the “Church.”… Continue reading

Charlie Kirk, Christian Nationalist

“This idea of liberty is God’s idea, not man’s idea. And whether or not the United States of America will continue to exist in any recognizable form, is completely and solely dependent on whether or not those who call themselves Christians, churches in America will be willing to say, “Lord, here I am. Use me for your purpose.” And will elevate the fight for truth, freedom, liberty, America. Much more than ease and comfort.”

(Ben Crenshaw – American Reformer) In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Kirk’s life, faith, and political vision for America have taken central stage in online and real-life discussion. Kirk’s memorial service this past Sunday was one of the most remarkable events in American history. Dignified public intellectuals and the highest officials in American government praised Kirk for his outspoken Christian faith, for his courage and conviction, and they preached the gospel of Jesus Christ multiple times throughout the five-hour service.

Matt Walsh: We Must Not Let Muslims Take Over the USA

“Bizarre visuals from Dearborn, Michigan!…The displays of power are quite intimidating…There’s a distinct feeling of a military training camp vibe to this gathering…What are they preparing for!?”

(Mary Dowling) Matt Walsh courageously states his opinion that so many are afraid to express. Americans don’t want to be called racists, but Mr. Walsh contends it doesn’t mean we have to cede our country to them.

“We are allowed to take control of our own country,” Walsh says. “We’re allowed to say, no, you’re not going to Islamize our cities. No, you’re not going to do that. This is America” Continue reading

What will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?

15 “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. Matthew 7:15 (LSB) 

The Church in our time appears huge, but this is only in appearance. It is thousands of miles wide, but only a fraction of an inch deep. Much of what claims to be Christian is not and proves it by what is actually its focus and what (or who) it actually worships. The focus has its foundation in pragmatism and its worship is nothing more than self-aggrandizement. They give lip service to their own version of “Jesus” who bears little if any resemblance to the Jesus we read of in God’s Word. This counterfeit Christianity is the majority while the true Church, which is made up of those saved by grace through faith because of God’s election and effectual calling is the minority….

New Survey Finds Half of Evangelicals Believe God Accepts All Religions, Church Attendance Not Important

(Protestia) A new ‘State of Theology’ survey by Liogoner Ministries, in conjunction with Lifeway research, has revealed the abject state of beliefs among American evangelicals, including nearly half of respondents who said “God accepts the worship of all religions, including Christianity, Judaism, and Islam.”

Rather than a generic poll of self-describing ‘Christians,’ Ligonier polled only evangelicals, which they define as people who “strongly agreed” with the following four statements: Continue reading

FBI Bombshell: 274 agents sent to Capitol for J6, many later complained they were political ‘pawns’

“Even worse, officers were assaulted in the streets in broad daylight with cameras rolling, and yet our response then was nothing like the Capitol Riots response on and after January 6, 2021. I do not recall a single instance where the FBI…made any attempt to put the resources behind the summer riots of 2020, as they did during the Capitol Riots,” the agent explained.”

(John Solomon – Just the News) FBI secretly deployed more than 250 plainclothes agents to the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, an operation so disorganized it unleashed searing frustrations among many of the FBI’s rank-and-file that the bureau had lost its core competencies to “wokeness” and allowed its employees to become “pawns in a political war,” according to an after-action report kept from the public for more than four years. Continue reading

Former FBI Director James Comey Indicted

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice, marking a dramatic development in one of the most politically explosive feuds in modern American history. The move comes just days after President Donald Trump publicly demanded his Justice Department act “now” to pursue Comey and other political rivals, escalating what critics already describe as a clear weaponization of federal law enforcement.

Voddie Baucham: A Fiery Voice for the Gospel Enters Glory

(David Morrill – Protestia) It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dr. Voddie Tharon Baucham, Jr., who entered the presence of his Savior on September 25, 2025, at the age of 56.

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dr. Voddie Tharon Baucham, Jr., who entered the presence of his Savior on September 25, 2025, at the age of 56.

Founders Ministries shared:

“We are saddened to inform friends that our dear brother, Voddie Baucham, Jr., has left the land of the dying and entered the land of the living … Please pray for Bridget, their children, and grandchildren.”

The Left Calls Their People to Spill Blood in the Streets

“Democrats want Obama’s fundamental transformation. They want a full communist and socialist government and they won’t tolerate the right. RINOS are cooperating with them.”

(Mary Dowling) The hard left, now in full control of the Democrat Party is waging psychological warfare and the philosophical nature of it is taking root in the minds of Democrats. Opponents are evil, and words are violence, not their words, only the right’s words.

Unfortunately, the hardcore left has created a world where words are becoming violence…. Continue reading

Why the Left Kills

“They demand you affirm and celebrate the murder of the young, that you use their preferred pronouns, and most importantly of all, that you shut up about Christ and His Word. Their conscience condemns them, and when you join in that condemnation, they will call you a “bigot” and a “fascist” until their hatred festers so deeply that they are not only willing to insult you or try to get you fired from your job—they will eventually convince themselves it is morally right to kill you.”

(Harrison R. Kahrig – TruthScript) “If they are willing to kill children, don’t think they are above killing you.”

said this three years ago, and it is all the more true now.

If the left is willing to murder the most innocent and defenseless among us, they will be more than willing to kill you. They will take everything you love and crush it if you keep them from what they want. It doesn’t matter how gentle or reasonable you are. Continue reading

Elon Musk’s DOGE Uncovered the Biggest Health Care Heist in American History

“[T]hat’s how we’re being attacked now, and it’s not done by small-time operators, as you’re hearing about and you will read about. These are organized syndicates who are designing to hurt America. And why do they hurt our health care system? Well, CMS is probably the largest target of all, responsible for about $1.7 trillion dollars of disbursements. So, it’s a big target on our side. And they can pierce the veil of protection by just getting identifier numbers from our seniors or Medicaid recipients or others.”

(Victoria Taft – JP Media) What if I told you that cartels and other bad actors from around the world conspired to undermine the integrity of the health care system in the U.S. and came way too close to succeeding?… Continue reading

Salt and Light

25 Now many crowds were going along with Him, and He turned and said to them, 26 “If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple. 27 Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. 28 For which one of you, when he wants to build a tower, does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if he has enough to complete it? 29 Lest, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who observe it begin to ridicule him, 30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Luke 14:25-35 (LSB) Read verses 31-35 on the site.

When I was in High School a movie came out that was pretty popular and I have seen several times. It is supposedly based on the last few years of the life of Thomas More. The movie was “A Man for All Seasons.”… Continue reading

Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do

35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to the ungrateful and evil. 36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. Luke 6:35-36 (LSB)

A couple days ago I watched the memorial service for Charlie Kirk. One of the most moving parts of it for me was when Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow, spoke. She spoke how the man who was accused of murdering Charlie was exactly like those who Charlie had dedicated himself to rescue from the evil trap the world system had captured them into. She also tearfully said that she was using Jesus’ example on the cross of forgiving his executioners in forgiving Charlie’s murderer. I had to ask myself if I could do that. Look at our Lord’s command in the passage I posted above (Luke 6:35-36)…. Continue reading

Tylenol, Autism, and Team Trump

“Predictably, this announcement has generated intense responses, especially from the anti-Trump crowd, that are little more than knee-jerk contrarianism. For example, social media has started to see a rash of leftist pregnant women ingesting Tylenol to “prove” Trump wrong. One would think that rather than simply doing the opposite of what the administration advises, especially when it comes to the health of one’s baby, a mother would take the time to research the issue and confer with her doctor before engaging in potentially dangerous behavior.”

(Thomas Gallatin – The Patriot Post) Does Tylenol cause autism? Well, according to the Trump administration, it just might.

“Taking Tylenol is not good,” President Donald Trump asserted in a major announcement regarding recent assessments his administration has made into addressing the growing problem of autism…. Continue reading

Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers

16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. 17 Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. 18 In the exercise of His will He brought us forth by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits among His creatures. James 1:16-18 (LSB) 

The test of true faith is that which is revealed in how one lives and walks through this life. Right belief, that is, a faith that lives in a regenerate heart born from above, is exhibited in right living as James, the brother of our Lord Jesus Christ wrote in the passage above. Notice also that he began that passage in v16 with, “Do not be deceived,” or Μὴ πλανᾶσθε from the Greek…. Continue reading

Yet Another ‘Day of Visibility’ For the Godless Sexual Revolutionaries

“When the church treats visibility as harmless and preaches that the Scriptures only whisper about such sin, it’s no better than Israel bowing before Baal. God will not leave His name mocked. What the world wants visible is not identity but idolatry. And Scripture has already promised us where idolatry ends—in wrath, in exile, in destruction, and for some, by His grace, in the breaking that leads to repentance.”

(The Dissenter) I didn’t wake up this morning needing another reminder that sin wants to be celebrated. Yet here we are—“Bisexual Day of Visibility.” Apparently, the world’s calendar didn’t already have enough carved-out hours to exalt rebellion. Continue reading

New Strain of Trump Derangement Syndrome Confuses Jesus With Hitler

“It’s obvious that the leftist range of emotion regarding people of faith runs from contemptuous disdain to frothing hatred. They only have compassion for religious types who feature suicide vests in their worship and want to kill all the Jews. But if you raise your voice in prayer to Jesus, you’re a Nazi.” 

(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Someone recently remarked that what I’ve been writing lately seems conversational, like I’m in the middle of a dialogue with you fine readers, only I’m typing my part of it. I think I’ve always approached writing that way, but I’m noticing it more now that it was mentioned…. Continue reading
