Rejuvenating the Protestant Mind

“For some reason Protestants in recent decades have ceded much of the public space to Catholics. Right-wing Catholic political commentators like Jack Posobiec, Matt Walsh, and Michael Knowles have no trouble openly proselytizing for their denomination. Meanwhile, their Protestant peers are more reticent to talk about their Protestant faith in public…”

(Mike Sabo – American Reformer) Online Pop-Catholic Apologists Need to Be Confronted. With all the discussion over Matthew Barrett’s exit from the SBC, you’d think he converted to Rome—but fortunately, he stayed within Protestantism. Barrett’s very public break has understandably come under fire by Baptists for the way he went about it, and for some of the unfair claims he leveled at the SBC. But one positive outcome for Protestants is that he declined to convert to the Roman Catholic Church. Continue reading

Black woman reveals secret EBT card scams, including how they’re used to buy wigs…

…people are really outraged about food stamps because they’ve been selling them, and that’s how they “normally buy weed, wigs, bundles (of drugs), get your nails done”…“And don’t say I’m lying because when y’all were receiving food stamps, you were selling the food stamps. You weren’t worried about feeding your children”

(Revolver) For years now, the left has treated welfare programs like EBT as freebies to lure in illegals and untouchable sacred cows. They’ve painted any criticism of these bloated, abused programs as cruel, racist, or anti-poor. But behind the curtain, there’s a side of this system that reeks to high heaven, and not enough people are willing to talk about what is really going on…. Continue reading

The Holiness of God

1 In the year of the death of king Uzziah, I saw also the Lord sitting upon an high throne, and lifted up, and the lower parts thereof filled the Temple. 2 The Seraphims stood upon it, every one had six wings: with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. 3 And one cried to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts: the whole world is full of his glory. Isaiah 6:1-3 (1599 Geneva Bible) 

In most English translations of the Old Testament when we encounter the word “Lord” we are actually reading the Hebrew word “Adhōnāy.” On the other hand, when we read the word “LORD,” it is a completely different Hebrew word, “Yehōwāh.” “Adhōnāy” is actually a title for God meaning “sovereign one.”… Continue reading

John Mark Comer Denies Penal Substitutionary Atonement

Update below

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) John Mark Comer was leading a Portland megachurch called Solid Rock, which experienced tremendous growth. Amidst the growth, he became burnt out and Solid Rock dissolved as a megachurch, choosing for each franchise to become an independent church. John Mark Comer chose to pastor the Bridgetown location, which was not the largest. But then he got burnt out as a pastor and is now a motivational speaker and author. Continue reading

How to Choose Music for a Worship Service

“Selecting songs for corporate worship is a profound privilege that deepens the connection between believers, both themselves and their Savior. This task requires careful adherence to biblical principles guiding music’s purpose and boundaries, while considering the congregation’s specific context and traditions…”

(Jon Harris – TruthScript) I have been involved in music ministry for the past two decades. Serving in various ministries, regions, and contexts has exposed me to different approaches to arranging worship musical selections. One of my consistent observations is that music often sparks controversy in churches, with congregants holding strong preferences and artists known for their particularities. These experiences, coupled with my commitment to excellence as a minister of music, have inspired me to develop a specific approach to musical selection. Here are some insights I have gained to help craft worship services that honor God, foster unity, and ensure that corporate music effectively fulfills its sacred purpose. Continue reading

Democrat whistleblower told FBI that Schiff okayed leaking classified intel to hurt Trump

“FBI Director Kash Patel releases bombshell documents to Congress showing how agents traced classified leaks to sources but DOJ didn’t act.”

(John Solomon – Just the News) A career intelligence officer who worked for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee for more than a decade repeatedly warned the FBI beginning in 2017 that then-Rep. Adam Schiff had approved leaking classified information to smear then-President Donald Trump over the now-debunked Russiagate scandal, according to bombshell FBI memos that Director Kash Patel has turned over to Congress. Continue reading

Everything Evolution Can’t Explain in Genesis 1:1

(John MacArthur) If we want to understand creation, if we want to understand origins, if we want to understand how the universe came into existence and everything that is in it, we have to look at theology, not science. And the source of theology is the Word of God in which God speaks. The Bible is not theory, the Bible is fact. The Bible is reality. The Bible is truth no matter what subject it addresses, but particularly with regard to origins since no one was here when God created, we have only His eyewitness account.

And when the Bible speaks with regard to creation, or when it speaks with regard to origins, it speaks truly, it speaks factually. And Scripture begins in Genesis 1 and 2 with a very straightforward account of the origin of the universe and the earth and everything on the earth. Scripture opens with one very clear unmistakable statement, it is this, Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” That is not an ambiguous statement. That is not an unclear statement. That is frankly not a statement that needs any explanation…. Continue reading

How Marxism Became So Pervasive in the Evangelical Church

“Reformed Theological Seminary brought in John Perkins to talk about “redistribution and reconciliation.” Tim Keller, planting Redeemer in New York City, championed “mercy and justice”—not the biblical kind, but the Marxist, social kind—as central to the gospel mission…The language shifted, and with it, the theology bent like a reed in the wind.”

(The Dissenter) Marxism didn’t storm the gates of Evangelicalism with tanks and bayonets—it rolled in quietly, like termites in the woodwork, and by the time anyone noticed, the beams were already hollow. Like the Scriptures warn of false ideologies, it “crept in unawares,” and hardly anyone noticed. Continue reading

JD Vance Delivers a Masterclass on How Democrats Rig Elections

(Lifezette) Vice President J.D. Vance is urging Republican-led states to push back against what he describes as “aggressive” gerrymandering in blue states such as California, New York, and Illinois, saying the current system unfairly benefits Democrats due to the inclusion of illegal aliens in congressional apportionment.

Speaking Sunday on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo, Vance said the nation’s electoral system has been skewed for years in ways that distort representation in Congress. Continue reading

Take a Break, Mr. President

“Travel agents in San Francisco are suggesting Mr. Trump go to hell, but that’s not nice.  No Napa, either.  Newsom hangs there.”

(Bill O’Reilly) After President Trump meets with bad Vlad Putin next Friday in Alaska, he needs some downtime.  Even if you don’t approve of Mr. Trump, the guy is the hardest-working chief executive in modern history.  Joe Biden would collapse just looking at Trump’s schedule.

JD Vance is in England, the Cotswolds. Don’t know why. Maybe he’ll buy Ellen’s house.  Apparently, she wants to move already….

The Orthodox Christian view of sin

1 In the beginning was that Word, and that Word was with God, and that Word was God. 2 This same was in the beginning with God. 3 ,All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made. 4 In it was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 And that light shineth in the wilderness, and the darkness comprehendeth it not. John 1:1-5 (1599 Geneva Bible) 

Those who have a problem with the Doctrine of Original Sin and the Wrath of God against all sin attempt to paint the God of Reformation Theology as some sort of ogre full of anger with very little love manifest except in the case of a chosen few. In their examples of how God operates in saving people, sin is never the issue…. Continue reading

Back to Fundamentals

1 Simeon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received the same kind of faith as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the full knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; 3 seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the full knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. 4 For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust. 2 Peter 1:1-15 Read verses 5-15 on the site.

In the 1960s, the premier football team in the NFL was the Green Bay Packers. They won the NFL title in 1961, 1962, 1965, 1966 and 1967. They also won the first two Super Bowls. Their coach through all of these winning seasons was Vince Lombardi. Continue reading

The Church That Loves Enough to Confront: Taking Holiness Seriously

“The Reformers defined three marks of a true biblical church: Preaching the Word…Rightly administering the sacraments… Faithfully exercising church discipline”

(Joey DeRuntz – TruthScript) The war for the purity of the church is not waged with worldly wisdom or cultural clout, but with truth applied in love. Weak churches avoid confrontation. Faithful churches wield it with holy resolve. As we move from the blueprint of Christ’s commands for corrective discipline to the battlefield of their execution, what’s at stake becomes undeniable: either sin is purged out or Christ walks out, taking His lampstand with Him. As we now turn from the design of discipline to its function, let us not forget the ultimate aim: God’s glory magnified in a holy people. The following sections will illustrate what happens when pastors and churches take holiness seriously, love deeply, and treasure Christ enough to confront sin in their midst. Continue reading

Justice Department Opens Criminal Investigation Into New York Attorney General Letitia James

“This news comes after it was revealed in May of 2025 that James was under FBI investigation for potential alleged mortgage fraud. She now faces multiple criminal investigations from federal law enforcement.”

(Matthew Boyle – Breitbart) New York Attorney General Letitia James is now under criminal investigation over her targeting of both President Donald Trump and another instance at the direction of Attorney General Pam Bondi, Breitbart News has learned. Continue reading

He Who Sits in the Heavens Laughs: Thoughts on God’s Derision, the World’s Rage, and the Coming Shattering

“While they legislate sin and litigate righteousness, God has already made His move. He has already crowned His Son. Christ is King. Not will be. Is. And this world and its wickedness is already on borrowed time.”

(The Dissenter) I don’t know exactly when it happens or what it looks like in practical, tangible detail. But what I do know is this: Psalm 2 is not poetry for the sake of art. It is a declaration of divine mockery—a promise that when the world raises its collective fist against God, He doesn’t flinch. He laughs. Continue reading

Christians Capitulating to the LGBTQ Agenda – Again

(John Herring – American Reformer) Chip and Joanna Gaines made their Christian faith central to their public personas. Integrating faith and work is a move of integrity, reflecting the Reformation-era insight that all work is done to the glory of God. And yet what builds an audience is also what it takes to keep that same audience. Bud Light was built on an image of working-class masculinity; Target was supposed to be the family-friendly upscale version of Wal-Mart. When both engaged in overt LGBTQ+ marketing, their bases abandoned them. Both have since recovered their market share by going back to their original positions. Continue reading

Pastor Warns Parents: If Democrats Pass AB 495, ‘This Is It. Pack Up, Grab Your Kids, Leave California’

“Hibbs isn’t acting and he’s not kidding. He’s holding a rally and lobbying session in Sacramento on August 19 to get lawmakers to kill the bill that “100% strips parents of their parental rights.” He’s asking thousands of California parents, grandparents, and others to show up at the state Capitol and stand up for their rights and the safety of their children.”

(Victoria Taft – PJ Media) A nationally known California pastor is calling on parents of underage school children to pack up and leave the state if Assembly Bill 495 passes and is signed into law. The bill makes all underage California school children the target of traffickers and kidnappersby design.  Continue reading

Soli Deo Gloria

31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 (1599 Geneva Bible)

11 If any man speak, let him speak as the words of God. If any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God ministereth, that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is praise and dominion forever, and ever, Amen. 1 Peter 4:11 (1599 Geneva Bible) 

4 John to the seven Churches which are in Asia, Grace be with you, and peace from him, Which is, and Which was, and Which is to come, and from the seven Spirits which are before his Throne, 5 And from Jesus Christ which is that faithful witness, and that first begotten of the dead, and that Prince of the Kings of the earth, unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his blood, 6 And made us Kings and Priests unto God even his Father, to him, I say, be glory, and dominion for evermore, Amen. Revelation 1:4-6 (1599 Geneva Bible) Continue reading on the site. Continue reading

Obama’s 2016 NPR interview comes back to haunt him in ways he never imagined…

“…you can tell by his smugness that he thought no one would ever be able to prove it…That’s why this is the kind of moment that comes back to bite a bad guy. Hard… Obama wasn’t just pushing a hoax; he was documenting it in real time, with the kind of elitist confidence that only someone totally drunk on power could muster up.”

At the height of the Russiagate frenzy, before the evidence, before the Twitter Files, before the whole thing unraveled, Barack Obama sat down for a soft-pitch, hour-long NPR interview designed to sell the biggest political hoax in American history.

Eight years later, that smug, elitist performance is aging like room-temperature milk. Continue reading

This Week in Orange Jumpsuit Possibilities — Adam Schiff

(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Because everything with the Democrats is projection, most of those who spent the last four years trying to railroad President Trump into prison are the real criminals. I mean, those of us on this side of the aisle knew that all along, but the word may soon be getting out to those who aren’t very online people. Who knows? Maybe some lefties might start believing the truth.

That last one is a stretch, I know.

The Dems are up in arms about the Trump administration seeking justice…. Continue reading

Mike Bickle’s Sister Just Absolved and Prophetically Pardoned Him Using This Crazy Reason!

(Protestia) Lisa Stribling is the head co-pastor of Hope City Family Church in Kansas City, as well as the sister of disgraced IHOPKC founder Mike Bickle.

In 2023, an independent investigation tasked with investigating allegations of sexual impropriety against Bickle found that the charismatic leader sexually abused or harassed at least seventeen women, which made his ministry, school, and organization implode. While Bickle has only admitted to sexually inappropriate behaviors with two separate adults, two minors have alleged they were victims as well of sexual abuse, with Tammy Woods saying that Bickle molested and groomed her when she was 14 and another, Terry Hartley when she was 15. Continue reading

Stephen Miller: Prosecute Hillary, Others for Coup Against Trump

“Miller added that “the new information that has been revealed by the director of National Intelligence and by the FBI eliminates any scintilla of doubt about the intention, the premeditation, the planning, and orchestration of this conspiracy.” 

(Brian Freeman – Newsmax) Newly declassified documents on the Russia collusion story reveal a “coup” against President Donald Trump, and those who took part in it should be prosecuted for “one egregious felony after another,” White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller told Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.” Continue reading

Dancing With Wolves

“Whether something “works” is not the first question for a Christian to ask. The Christian’s priority is to determine if such techniques line up with the revealed truth of Scripture, and other outdated, uptight ideas like that .Adultery “works” just as well as marital relations to produce sexual pleasure, but adultery is not for Christians! Yet, being uptight, stick-in-the-mud, left-brained empiricists, we would also like to examine the evidence that these New Age healing techniques truly produce the promised benefit. Do they “work?”

(Joy Veinot – Midwestern Christian Outreach) There is a cult system for everyone. There are more cults and cult-like organizations in our society today than I have space here to list. Each holds appeal for a different type of person, and it seems that all the bases are covered. Continue reading

Former FBI Director Wray Hit With Criminal Referral for Lying To Congress

“…Wray appeared before the House Judiciary Committee and downplayed the FBI’s memo that outrageously flagged traditional Catholics as possible domestic extremists. That memo, which came out of the Richmond field office, caused national outrage—and for good reason. But according to Howell, Wray’s testimony may not have been just misleading—it may have crossed the line into criminal territory.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Former FBI Director Christopher Wray is now facing a criminal referral to the Department of Justice, thanks to a new filing from the Oversight Project—a D.C.-based watchdog group. The group is accusing Wray of lying to Congress and obstructing not one, but two investigations into explosive FBI misconduct. Continue reading

The high cost of discipleship and the superiority of Christ

1 God, having spoken long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, 2 in these last days spoke to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds, 3 who is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power; who, having accomplished cleansing for sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they. Hebrews 1:1-4 (LSB) 

The Church in the early part of the 21st Century is very sick. This sickness has not happened all at once. Instead, it is the result of centuries of compromise after compromise on the part of Christian leaders and their followers to adapt the Gospel and the Church doctrines to conform to what men want….
