14 For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace. 15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be! Romans 6:14-15 (LSB)
Most of the early years of my Christian walk were spent in one church from February 1987 through February 2000. During that time we had three pastors. I was in some form of teaching for most of that time. One of the things that always came up when we studied the Old Testament was Romans 6:14-15…. Continue reading
“In his famous ‘Farewell Address,’ Washington reminded Americans that religious teachings and values must never be removed from politics and public policy…
“Ordinarily, when someone’s behind the wheel of a car crammed with illegal migrants, carrying a wad of cash, and driving on a bogus license, that should set off every alarm bell. But under Biden’s ICE, that wasn’t enough to warrant action. They never even bothered to pick him up. He was promptly back on the street.”
(Paul Schlehlein – Between Two Cultures) Answer: God’s anger upon his children is temporary, while His wrath up His enemies will carry on forever.
Trump introduced January Littlejohn at congressional address, called school district’s treatment of her daughter “child abuse.” Full appeals court called upon to fix panel’s Frankenstein ruling on behavior that “shocks the conscience.”
(Elizabeth Weibel – Breitbart) A federal judge ordered that the suspect behind the firebombing of a Tesla dealership in Kansas City, Missouri, be released from federal custody ahead of his upcoming court date.
(Revolver) While America was getting crushed by a wide-open border, skyrocketing crime, and runaway inflation, the Biden administration was laser-focused on one thing: censoring American citizens who didn’t fall in line with the progressive agenda.
“Tolerating this kind of foreign sectarianism is national suicide, as anyone can easily observe in Scotland and England, which are now on a probably irreversible trajectory toward civil war. We in America should pay attention because the same thing is happening here, albeit on a smaller scale.”
“So much of what Trump is trying to do for the betterment of the country is being slowed down by judicial hissy fits that are being thrown by corrupt perverters of the law. There isn’t a murderer or rapist they won’t defend if it can trip up the Trump 47 agenda.” 
Firefly’s report listed several instances when ministry leaders tried to confront Brown, but he didn’t give consistent and full confessions. Firefly reported Brown showed a “calculated effort to evade accountability, suppress the allegations, and protect his ministry’s reputation.”
(Jordan Standridge – The Cripplegate) Pope Francis is dead.
“What can Christ’s congregations do to ameliorate this situation? How can the pockets of paganism be purged? First, the church’s leaders must recognize that a problem exists. Second, they must recognize embedded paganism cannot be remedied by a retreat, conference, rebrand, or other quick fix. Rather, leaders must implement strategies and tactics that supplant paganism with the beauty of orthodoxy. Here are some ways of doing so.”
If you watch the Rogan/Musk video be prepared for salty language. 
“Will the new pope follow Pope Francis in these positions that lead to civilizational suicide, or chart a new path?” 
“I fear we are approaching an environment — if we’re not already there — where malpractice masquerades as virtuous health care. Picture a physician so bound by ideology he cannot explore the roots of gender dysphoria, instead pushing a child toward irreversible surgery to affirm gender; too fearful of being labeled “fatphobic” to warn an obese patient about heart failure; or so steeped in anti-racist dogma that a critically ill white male is deprioritized to favor a less urgent case for a black female patient.”
“The @nytimes story on the January DC plane crash hides its takeaway until the last sentences: the lady helicopter pilot ignored multiple warnings from her right seat about altitude (and his directly telling her to turn away) and flew straight into a passenger jet. The end. Ugh.” – Alex Berenson 
“Even the greatest charlatans don’t work alone. Steven Furtick was the adoring apprentice, the eager mimic, the dollar-store knockoff of Jakes’ ministry of self. Together, they didn’t so much shepherd the flock as they fleeced it, turning churches into circuses where the name of Jesus was a marketing slogan and the offering plate the main attraction.”
Must watch video.
“With reports of horrendous crimes committed by illegals against U.S. citizens going about their daily lives, inflation keeping eggs and other staples at record highs, continuing chaos at the border as more illegals raced to get across the border before the Nov. 2024 election, voters went to the polls and chose … Donald Trump, who promised to stop the chaos, restore law and order, and restore economic sanity and prosperity.”
“Despite this clear commitment to restoring focus on mission readiness and discipline, a wave of judicial activism has disrupted the Pentagon’s efforts. Two federal judges recently blocked the military’s reasonable ban on transgender service members.” 
(Ron Helle – The Patriot Post) The images on the television were stark! It is not unusual for Southern California to have what they call Santa Anna winds. Instead of westerly winds coming from the Pacific Ocean, they shift to easterly winds, blowing the high-desert heat and low humidity toward the coastal cities. Brush fires are not a surprise, and they can be challenging to subdue.
