1 “I am the true vine and my Father is the vinedresser.” John 15:1 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)
In John 15:1, we have our Lord’s last of His seven “I am” sayings signifying His claim of deity. The word “true” in v1 translates the adjective ἀληθινὴ, which is nominative, singular of ἀληθινός (alēthinos), “unfeigned, trustworthy, true.” The nominative case form, ἀληθινὴ of ἀληθινός means that the metaphor our Lord is making of Him being the “true vine” is subject to the main verb in the sentence with is εἰμι, which, of course, means, in this context, “am.”… Continue reading

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) These past four years, Donald Trump, intentionally or not, became a CT scanner that produced three-dimensional images of the innards of elite institutions and people, showing us what is beneath their veneers. He had an eerie manner of replying to critics in such an upstart fashion that those who objected to his supposed crudity proved cruder in repartee than he. And he showcased his successes for America in such a way as to make his enemies wish that successes for their country were failures instead.
(Sandy Fitzgerald – Newsmax) Trump campaign attorney Sidney Powell Friday claimed her team will be able to prove, in court, all of their claims concerning the election “within the next two weeks,” as “we have more than enough evidence now.”

(Protestia) In a story that is stranger than fiction, the Russian hacking group REvil announced that they’ve successfully hacked into Kenneth Copeland Ministries and have stolen 1.2 terabytes of “sensitive data.” As a result, they are threatening to release it to the public if the televangelist doesn’t pay their ransom.
“Continue to practice social distancing and wash your hands for 20-seconds as often as possible, but this mask stuff has again taken a hit. With that, I don’t know who to trust. It changes, almost like the number of glasses of water one should drink a day.”
“The company will have their work cut out for them, as rumors swirl that more women have come forward with allegations of more sexual impropriety- a move if true will further alienate those with a propensity to brush off his 5-month long adulterous affair as a one-time mistake.”
“That is sinister. I’ve not seen any document like this before—the Human Rights Campaign is effectively calling for religious colleges and schools to be coerced into the sexual revolution or stripped of accreditation.”
Powell hammered home a point we’ve tried to make at American Thinker, which is that the software constitutes foreign interference in American elections.

“What is Biden’s idea of “peace and unity”? The economy-crushing Paris accord; anti-white Critical Race Theory; gender pronoun hate crimes; open borders; amnesty; citizenship to trespassing foreigners; packing the Supreme Court; statehood for Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico; assaults on the second amendment and more. The Trump Accountability Project, now “rescinded,” called for list of names of those who supported Trump to “make them pay.” Talks of camps to punish Trump voters? That’s we. Re-education programs abound. This is peace and unity?”
“Without even trying, WaPo made the case for why the Electoral College is important. Our Founding Fathers worried about a majority rule without a protection for the minority. People in California and New York shouldn’t matter more than those in Montana, Kentucky or Iowa.”
