(Carlos Garcia – Blaze Media) MyPillow founder and CEO Mike Lindell said that he’s been developing a social media application that would restore free speech to those who were banned by the mainstream tech platforms.
Lindell made his plans public during an interview with Charlie Kirk on his podcast Friday.
“We’re launching this big platform so all the voices of our country can come back and start telling it like it is again,” said Lindell, according to the Business Insider. Continue reading
(Marsha West – Christian Research Network) It has become clear to discerning Christians that the Spiritual Forces of Darkness engineered America’s shift to the far left. And anyone who chooses not to toe the line, anyone who won’t buy into the “woke” narrative or dares voice their disagreement with the totalitarian Left finds themselves “cancelled” (smeared, maligned, demeaned). This is especially true for followers of Jesus Christ.
Americans are no longer surprised to hear that conservatives who are invited to speak at a college campus are shouted down and pelted with food and water bottles. Fearing for their lives, many of them are forced to flee when the opposition literally gets in their face, shouts obscenities and threatens bodily harm. Liberals are never interested in having a dialogue with those who disagree with them principally because this dialogue would only serve to highlight the ridiculous nature of their positions. Rather, they prefer to intimidate by using tactics that could at best be described as destructive and unhinged.
Sadly, thanks to our public education system, our younger generation is so lacking in critical thinking skills that if they get into a debate they know they cannot win, especially when it involves politics and religion, they resort to bullying and even violence as the world witnessed during the BLM “peaceful protests”. Portland Oregon, where riots—oops—peaceful protests went on nightly for several months will never be the same after the BLM/antifa targeted areas of that once beautiful thriving city for destruction.

14 And the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us. and we gazed upon his glory, glory as of the only one from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 (John testified about him and cried out saying, “This one was he whom I said, ‘The one coming after me ranks before me because he was prior to me.'”) 16 And from his fullness, we all received, even grace on top of grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses, the grace and the truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God; the only God, The one being in the bosom of the Father, that one explained him. John 1:14-18 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)
In John 1:18 the Apostle tells us that no one has ever seen God, but the Word who became flesh and tabernacled among us, that one, explained him. What got Jesus in hot water with the religious Jews during his earthly ministry? It was when he did that very thing and it was always in opposition to the presuppositions according to which the Scribes and Pharisees operated…. Continue reading
Let there be no doubt that Timothy Keller has leftist political and social justice leanings. The Gospel Coalition, which he co-founded with D.A. Carson, has become a theologically liberal organization and is drowning in wokeness. According to Toni Brown, who has reported extensively on Tim Keller: “Keller is a Darwinian evolutionist and you will find him regularly partnering with the BioLogos Foundation, which was organized for the sole purpose of replacing the biblical account of creation with Darwin’s theory of evolution inside the church. This heresy is being cleverly propagated onto the church as “theistic” evolution….” Moreover, Keller joined the pro-abortion, pro-LGBTQ Democratic Party backed group AND (&) Campaign which was formed to defeat Donald Trump in the 2020 election.
What many Christians are unaware of is that Tim Keller’s theology contains serious error. In his piece over at Reformation Charlotte, Jeff Maples includes a video that is a must watch. Maples writes: Continue reading
(Matthew Impelli – Newsweek) Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a professor at Stanford University Medical School, recently said that COVID-19 lockdowns are the “biggest public health mistake we’ve ever made…The harm to people is catastrophic.”
Several U.S. states have started to ease their COVID-19 restrictions over the past few weeks.
Bhattacharya, who made the comments during an interview with the Daily Clout, co-authored the Great Barrington Declaration, a petition that calls for the end of COVID-19 lockdowns, claiming that they are “producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health.” Continue reading
(Charlie Spiering – Breitbart) President Joe Biden’s administration continues struggling to respond to the border crisis, as the White House remains unprepared to answer the most basic questions about what is going on and how they plan to handle it.
Since Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas repeatedly insisted on March 1, the crisis was not a crisis but a “challenge,” the Biden administration has struggled to address it. Continue reading
“Biden’s Justice Department is shaping up to be as hyperpartisan, relentless, and destructive as Barack Obama’s, perhaps more so since no one has been held responsible for perpetuating the Russian collusion hoax on the American people for more than three years.”
(Julie Kelly – American Greatness) In his first public remarks, Joe Biden’s acting deputy attorney general promised he would spare no resource in the nationwide manhunt for anyone involved in the Capitol breach on January 6. Continue reading
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1 Peter 1:3-7 (NASB) Read verses 6-7 on the site.
When God saves a person, he/she is changed forever. However, they are not at the spiritual maturity level that God desires for His people. Therefore, from that point until they go home to be with their Lord all genuine Christians will go through a series of tests and trials that put pressure on their faith…. Continue reading
“…because of her opposition to Trump and her outspokenness in confronting sexism and nationalism in the evangelical world, she has been labeled a “liberal” and “woke” and even as being a heretic giving a message during a Sunday morning church service.”
(Reformation Charlotte) Beth Moore is the Southern Baptist Convention’s top lady-preacher and prime merry-andrew of Evangelicalism. Beth Moore, like her spiritual brother, Russell Moore (no relation), has lead the charge in opposing conservative policies in the political realm, primarily railing against the evil orange man, daily. Continue reading
“Right-leaning lawmakers are right to demand an end to these subversive practices. There is no other way to stop them than to use legislative power. Their constituents deserve a say in how their tax dollars are spent. It’s doubtful many of them want to fund lessons to teach their kids to hate themselves for being white.”
(Paul Bradford – American Greatness) Most conservatives realize our cultural and educational institutions are in enemy hands. Public schools and universities fill our kids’ heads with radical anti-American nonsense. TV shows and movies shove woke ideology down the throats of ordinary Americans. It makes sense that conservatives would want to fight back against this. Continue reading
(Ian Haworth – Daily Wire) Since Joe Biden entered the 2020 presidential race, there have been ongoing concerns regarding his mental acuity. Instances of confusion are dismissed as lovable Biden “gaffes,” and lapses in speech are chalked up to a resurgence of Biden’s childhood stutter.
At this point, however, the concerns are growing beyond such characterizations, with Biden appearing to forget even the names of close cabinet members or former running mates.
Here is a look back at the times Biden’s memory seems to have slipped. Continue reading
(Tyler O’Neil – PJ Media) President Joe Biden pulled out all the stops for International Women’s Day on Monday, but he arguably undercut women’s advancement while paying lip service to it. He issued a glowing statement about women’s empowerment, launched a Gender Policy Council, and signed an executive order barring “sex discrimination” — including discrimination on the basis of gender identity — in public schools. On one hand, Biden celebrated women’s advancement, and on the other, he forced schoolgirls to share bathrooms and sports teams with biological boys. Continue reading
“During Trump’s four years in Washington, Obama ran the shadow government out of his DC home, probably exerting more influence over the wheels of government than the man in the Oval Office did. Obama lined up whistleblowers, leaks to the press, and resistance to the president from within the government, including in the White House and the president’s cabinet. He advised “the gang of four” and other radicals on policy and presentation.”
(Ayad Rahim – American Thinker) On March 3, 2021, Barack Obama passed Franklin Roosevelt for the longest presidential tenure in American history.
What’s that you say? — president, for longer than FDR? But FDR was elected president four times; Obama was elected president two times.
Yes, all of that is true. That’s why this record has an asterisk next to it. Continue reading
10 Listen, O daughter, give attention and incline your ear:
Forget your people and your father’s house; Psalms 45:10 (NASB)
As we become Spirit-led or Spirit-filled the Lord will enable us to do many good works. We will become much more adept at prayer than we used to be. We will be able to read the Bible and be able to see truths that used to go right over our heads. We will be able to help others see the truth. We will be able to obey our Lord and do wonderful things for His glory. However, there is a danger lurking for each of us as our faith is grown and deepened. Continue reading
Some of our trusted evangelical “leaders” do not have the brain power of a gnat, let alone spiritual discernment. That evangelicals would fall for the promises of Democrats who have been shown that they cannot be trusted time and time again is beyond belief. Aborting viable human beings is what people who are devoid of a conscience do. Why? Because Roe v. Wade gave them that “right.” For most Democrats, killing womb babies is not considered wrong. It is an entitlement.
Apparently these “pro-life Democrats” failed to read the Democrat Party platform which states that they are committed to “safe and legal abortions.” This includes abortion up to birth, by the way. As well, Democrats state that they will “fight to overturn federal and state laws that create barriers to reproductive health and rights.” They are also committed to forcing Americans to fund this abomination. That these men were “used and betrayed” by Biden-Harris comes as no surprise to pro-life conservatives. Using voters as a means to an end is exactly what we’ve come to expect from the Democrat Party.
With this background in mind, here’s Protestia’s report. Continue reading
“While Greear doesn’t go as far as to affirm homosexuality, Greear has insisted that the Scriptures only “whisper” about homosexuality while addresses other sins–such as greed or boasting–in a much greater way. He’s also called on Christians to stand up for LGBTQ rights.”
(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) In a podcast, JD Greear defended a former staff member who said that while he was on his personal pastoral staff and “very active” in his church for many years, he secretly looked at gay porn and hooked up on gay dating sites…. Continue reading
“Neither Meghan Markle nor her husband was willing to name names regarding the central accusation in the interview — that the royal family harbored racism and did not care for her needs. This accusation needs support, in part because claims of a “toxic environment” can be extremely subjective, and Markle may have wrongly interpreted some things as racist.”
(Tyler O’Neil – PJ Media) On Sunday night, Meghan Markle made accusations of racism and heartlessness against the British royal family in an interview with Oprah Winfrey on CBS News…. Continue reading
(Robert Spencer – PJ Media) Pope Francis went to Iraq today and met with Iraq’s principal Shi’ite leader, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, and, according to the Associated Press, “delivered a powerful message of peaceful coexistence Saturday, urging Muslims in the war-weary Arab nation to embrace Iraq’s long-beleaguered Christian minority during an historic meeting in the holy city of Najaf.” That’s great, but the pope also conspicuously omitted mention of Jesus, not uttering the name even once, and thereby revealing what is wrong with all these “Muslim-Christian Dialogue” initiatives: They’re long on Islam, and short on Christianity. Continue reading
25 If you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your tool on it, you will profane it. Exodus 20:25 (NASB)
The focus of our ministries, whether it is all on God, His purposes, and His ways or whether it is on men or self, is also what marks whether what we are doing is God glorifying or merely another profane work of the flesh. The daily walk of the regenerate believer is a ministry. How we deal with all those with whom we interact each day is part of our ministries. Therefore, all who know Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour have a ministry. What we must do is examine our walks to see if we are profaning the altar of God with the ways of the flesh or whether we are obediently ministering as led by the Spirit. Continue reading
11 In whom also we were made an inheritance, having been predestined according to the plan of the one working all things according to the counsel of His will. 12 For us to be to the praise of His glory, having previously hoped in Christ. Ephesians 1:11-12 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)
Most modern Bible translations undoubtedly render v11 a bit differently than I did above. The words “we were made an inheritance” translates one verb, ἐκληρώθημεν, which is the Aorist tense, Indicative mood, Passive voice of κληρόω (klēroō), “obtain an inheritance.”…. Continue reading
“We can only hope by then that while Northpoint remains closed, most of the congregants come under the conviction of the Holy Spirit and leave to find biblical churches led by pastors who don’t have their smarminess dialed to 10 and their deviltry cranked to 11.”
(Protestia – Op-Ed) North Point Community Church “impastor” Andy Stanley continued his wretched job of being seen as the elder statesman of evangelicalism, with his new declaration that he was “embarrassed” at how churches were battling governments for the right to have their church service. Continue reading
“Perhaps February 25, 2021 will be the beginning of a spiritual revival of God’s people, ready to speak with boldness about the Lord of heaven and earth. The only true hope for humanity is the message of hope of a future life on this transformed earth, which God is preparing for those who recognize him with faith and courage and worship him as their Lord.”
(Peter Jones – truthxchange) I wrote this text on February 25, 2021, a day when stunning events occurred in the USA that are massive “legal” attacks on the opening line of the Bible: “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them” (Gen 1:27). Continue reading
Castro and Che’s blood-lust against Americans was such that they sent their torturers thousands of miles to get their hands on (defenseless) ones. According to the book Honor Bound, the tortures of U.S. POWs by Castro’s agents were “the worst sieges of torture any American withstood in Hanoi.”
(Humberto Fontana – Townhall) “EBay scraps ‘canceled’ Dr. Seuss books from site—eBay is barring users from reselling the six Dr. Seuss books that will no longer be printed due to their “racist” imagery…eBay is currently sweeping our marketplace to remove these items,” an eBay spokeswoman told the WSJ,” the New York Post reported this week.

“Christian organizations develop blind spots in part because their board directors are drafted for their financial support for the organization’s mission and because they believe in the organization’s leaders and are often their friends.”
Stephen Baughman thought he was done with Ravi Zacharias.
From 2015 to 2020, Baughman, a San Francisco attorney, a writer known as the “Banjo Atheist,” had been and posting videos about what he called the “Ravi scam” — a series of scandals involving the famed evangelist and head of Ravi Zacharias International Ministries.
Then Zacharias died in May of 2020. Continue reading
Say unto my soul, I am thy salvation. Psalm 35:3
What does this sweet prayer teach me? It shall be my evening’s petition; but first let it yield me an instructive meditation. The text informs me first of all that David had his doubts; for why should he pray, “Say unto my soul, I am thy salvation,” if he were not sometimes exercised with doubts and fears? Let me, then, be of good cheer, for I am not the only saint who has to complain of weakness of faith. Continue reading
