AAP claims doctors don’t profit from vaxing kids. Receipts says otherwise…

“Whether the cash came directly from the feds or flowed through Medicaid, insurance plans, or private networks, the result was the same: doctors got paid to push vaccines, and that fact destroys the narrative the AAP is so desperately clinging to.”

(Revolver) While the media and medical establishment scramble to cover for each other, the truth keeps leaking out, and as you can imagine, it’s not pretty. This week, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) took to X to slam RFK Jr. for saying what a lot of us already knew: pediatricians made money, real, big money, off the COVID vaccine push, especially on kids.

Donald Trump Calls to Release ‘All Pertinent Grand Jury Testimony’ in Jeffrey Epstein Case

(Paul Bois – Breitbart) President Donald Trump called to release “all pertinent grand jury testimony” relating to the Jeffrey Epstein case in the wake of increased scrutiny over the convicted sex offender’s dealings with high-profile public figures.

Writing on his TruthSocial account, the president called the Epstein controversy a “scam” perpetuated by Democrats.

“Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to court approval. This SCAM, perpetuated by Democrats, should end, right now!” he wrote. Continue reading

An Epidemic of Mal-Parenting

Mr. Williams has made some excellent suggestions; however, he neglected to include Bible reading and taking children to church regularly. It’s easy to see why he excluded them.  

(Armstrong Williams – The Patriot Post) The nation is afflicted with an epidemic of mal-parenting. How do we know? The persistence of shocking levels of juvenile delinquency and crime. The posterchild case is Ethan Crumbley, guilty of murdering four students at Oxford High School in southeastern Michigan in 2021 and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

The Epstein List and the Certainty of Secret Sins Revealed

“Those who live long lives of luxury and wealth, hiding their crimes and covering their sins will in a moment be destroyed. The terrors of divine wrath will sneak up on them, and they will find themselves suffering under eternal torment in the lake of fire, all of their wicked deeds having been made known to all. Everything they thought they had shrouded in impenetrable darkness will be revealed by the light of God’s holy judgment.”

(Robb Brunansky – The Cripplegate) People across the political spectrum were outraged this week when President Donald Trump dismissed the importance of the Epstein List. During his campaign, President Trump said, “Yeah, I’d do the Epstein thing. I’d have no problem with it.” Many people voted for President Trump, at least in part, because he promised to release the list. Earlier this year, Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed on Fox News that she was in possession of the Epstein List and was reviewing it. However, this past week when a reporter asked Ms. Bondi about the list, Mr. Trump intervened, shaming the reporter for still being concerned about who might have been Jeffrey Epstein’s “clients.”…, Continue reading

Epstein updated: Loomer Makes President Trump an offer he shouldn’t refuse…

(Revolver) The Epstein files have ripped open a deep and growing divide inside the MAGA movement. But this isn’t just about some scumbag rich guy and his perverse island crimes. This is about justice. It’s about whether or not we’re really going to hold the elite class accountable or let them, yet again, walk away totally unscathed. And even more than that, it’s also about whether President Trump is truly surrounded by the right people for the job ahead.

As a result of the “Epstein divide,” there are now two very distinct camps inside MAGA. One side is demanding total transparency on Epstein and his grotesque network of coconspirators, and they’re not letting go. They want names, timelines, and prosecutions. You can’t blame them, right?

An Open Letter to Chip and Joanna Gaines

“What you’re currently experiencing as a storm of conservative indignation is actually a crowd of Christians pounding on your front and back doors, which I grant may feel aggressive, except for the minor detail that we’re just out here trying to let you know that your roof is on fire.”

By Lindsay Whitlow – Clear Truth Media

Dear Chip and Jo,

You don’t remember, but we first met in 2017. I was 24 years old, a new wife and an even newer mom. Our daughter, Reagan, was born just 10 months after Steven’s and my wedding. For the first time since adulthood, I wasn’t going to work every day. My world had become very small. I’ve heard women fondly reference their “postpartum show,” the television series that they marathoned during their first weeks with a new baby. Mine was Fixer Upper. Continue reading

The Open Door

24 And when they passed through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia. 25 And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia. 26 And from there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work that they had fulfilled. 27 And when they had arrived and gathered the church together, they began to report all things that God had done with them and how He had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles. 28 And they spent not a little time with the disciples. Acts 14:24-28 (LSB) 

Not all of the letters to the churches from our Lord in the book of Revelation were as harsh as the one to Laodicea. In his letter to the church in Philadelphia he commended their faith and good works. In that letter He made one marvelous statement (v8) that we will be the focus of this post. Continue reading

Melania’s Bracelet

(Sarah Anderson – PJ Media) On Friday, President Donald Trump flew down to Texas to visit locals and officials who have been impacted by the devastating flooding in the state, and he brought along his biggest morale booster: Melania. If you watched any of the coverage, you may have noticed that the first lady was a welcome sight to the communities whose lives have been turned upside down over the last couple of weeks.

But then again, that’s always the case, isn’t it? Despite what the legacy media claims, Mrs. Trump often accompanies her husband on these field trips to meet people whose lives have been touched by disasters, and also, despite what the legacy media claims, she’s warm and caring and leaves her mark on everyone she meets….

Disgraced NBC Equates GOP Digital Signature and Biden Autopen in Fake News Blunder

“The most fascinating part of this is that the NBC News story is FAKE NEWS. Here’s the difference between a digital signature and an autopen signature, and it is all the difference…”

(John Nolte – Breitbart) Far-left NBC News thought it had a pretty sweet gotcha on its hands after its “bombshell” discovery that a leading Republican used a digital signature.

In other words… This is today’s reminder that we are blessed by the glaring ignorance, outright stupidity, and desperation of our enemies. Continue reading

‘Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant’: Pastor John MacArthur Enters Glory

(David Morrill) John Fullerton MacArthur Jr. (1939–2025) — pastor, teacher, author, and a stalwart defender of biblical truth — has entered the presence of his Lord and Savior at 6:17pm PT on July 14th, 2025 after a lifetime of faithful ministry. With profound sorrow yet deeper gratitude, we at Protestia mourn the earthly loss of a man whose legacy towers across the landscape not merely of conservative, reformed evangelicalism, but the universal church as a whole.

MacArthur served as the pastor of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California for over 50 years, beginning in 1969. His long and faithful expositional ministry through every book of the Bible became a model of verse-by-verse preaching, setting a standard for generations of pastors. Under his leadership, Grace Church was not merely a local congregation but a beacon of doctrinal stability. Continue reading

If we are bearing spiritual fruit in any way, we belong to Jesus

1 For this freedom, Christ freed us, therefore, stand fast, and be not held again by a yoke of slavery. (Galatians 5:1 translated from the NA28 Greek text)

In Galatians 5:1 (above), the reference to the freedom for which Christ freed us refers to Paul’s arguments from Galatians 4. Never forget the purpose of this letter to the Galatian churches. They were being attacked by “Judiazers” who were attempting to get these Gentile believers to look to keeping the Jewish ceremonial law and regulations because they were saying the atonement bought for them through Christ’s blood was not sufficient for their justification….

We Know Who Controlled the Biden Autopen…and This Scandal Just Got Worse

“The New York Times had a lengthy piece about this scandal after the National Archives turned over thousands of emails relating to the pardons for review by the DOJ. It seems that the pardons for the January 6th Committee and Anthony Fauci might not be binding. Also, how the Biden White House issued pardons is absolutely crazy…”

(Matt Vespa – Townhall) Justice Department Official Ed Martin has been investigating the pardons issued by Joe Biden. They might not have been legal. The autopen has been a controversial aspect of the White House; some argue that it’s unconstitutional…. Continue reading

Trump Was Saved to Save Our Country

“The miracle in Butler lit a fire that hasn’t gone out. It changed the tone of his presidency and the trajectory of the movement behind him. When Americans voted in November, they didn’t just elect a president—they sent a message. That they were done being bullied by a regime that trades in fear. That they chose secure borders over chaos, defending police over defunding them, protecting children instead of butchering them, and truth over the manufactured lies of the press.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) One year ago in Butler, Pennsylvania, America came within inches of catastrophe. A bullet meant for Donald Trump whizzed past his head, grazing his ear thanks to a sudden turn of his head, in a near-miss that could have changed history. Continue reading

Pastor John MacArthur Contracts Pneumonia, Nearing End of Earthly Life at 86

(ChurchLeaders) It was announced on Sunday, July 13, that John MacArthur, 86, pastor-teacher of Grace Community Church (GCC) in Sun Valley, California, has contracted pneumonia and is expected to be in the presence of Jesus soon.

MacArthur celebrated 56 years as GCC’s pastor-teacher in February, but due to his health, he was unable to preach more than half of 2024 and all of 2025 so far.

“You need to know that this week, Pastor John contracted pneumonia. He was admitted in a hospital, and may be in the presence of the Lord soon.” Continue reading

Take Up Your Cross And Follow Jesus

24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. 25 For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? Matthew 16:24-26 (LSB) 

The Church is in the midst of a Truth War. That is nothing new is it? We have been talking about this for quite some time; however, we must remain diligent while not surrendering the fight over what is Truth and what is not to the enemies of God’s Truth. The reason the visible church is being eaten alive by the world right now is that it has long ago forsaken God’s Word as His infallible Truth…. Continue reading

What it means to be filled by the Holy Spirit

18 And do not become drunk with wine in which is dissipation, but be filled by the Spirit, (Ephesians 5:18 translated from the NA28 Greek text)

What does it mean for a Christian to be “filled” by the Holy Spirit? In my translation above the preposition “by” renders the Greek word ἐν (en), “in, with, by, among, at, on, when, to, as, for, through, while, within, of, about, into, because, during, throughout, before, under.” Why did I render it as “by” instead of “with?” As Louis Sperry Chafer said, “It is not a matter of acquiring more of the Spirit, but rather of the Spirit of God acquiring all of the individual.”… Continue reading

The Mainstreaming of Neo-Gnosticism in Evangelicalism (Reprise)

“I’m including what Joanna Gaines shared with Oprah about her relationship with the Almighty for the reason that she has made the claim during other interviews that God speaks directly to her. She revealed to Oprah’s audience that she has received special revelation from God since she was a child.”

(Marsha West – Christian Research Network)  May the Lord have mercy upon us because we are only now beginning to pay the price of years of Bible studies that goes around the room asking: “What does this verse mean to you; what does it mean to your-self?” Ken Silva 

Christians are being exhorted to put their minds on hold through meditation and take a step into the supernatural realm. Is it biblical to connect with the supernatural realm?  Several years ago, “Pastor” Rob Bell, who once led the sheep astray at Mars Hill Bible Church in Grandville, MI, said the following:

Central to the Christian tradition, for thousands of years, have been disciplines of meditation, reflection, silence, and breathing. It was understood that to be a healthy person, to be fully connected with God, and fully centered you would spend significant parts of your day in silence–breathing, meditating–praying allowing the Spirit of God to transform you and touch you.

For a number of years, Rob Bell has been leading Christians into dangerous Eastern religious beliefs and rituals.  Led astray by Bell and other Christian luminaries, the sheep believe it is possible to have a special experience with “God” by practicing “disciplines” that will supposedly transform those who practice them. What these people fail to realize is that they’re wading into shark infested waters. Continue reading

You Must be Ready

1 “Then the kingdom of heaven may be compared to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Now five of them were foolish, and five were prudent. 3 For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, 4 but the prudent took oil in flasks along with their lamps. Matthew 25:1-4 (LSB) 

Jesus is coming back soon. If that statement brought a surge of joy into your heart then more than likely, you are actively preparing for His return and are looking forward to it with eagerness. However, there may be some of you who reacted with a sense of dread or foreboding…. Continue reading

Is Dan Bongino Quitting Over the Epstein Client List Debacle?

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) What happens when even Donald Trump’s most loyal allies start questioning the administration’s handling of one of the most explosive cases in modern history? We’re about to find out, and it’s not pretty.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino reportedly had a heated confrontation with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the Jeffrey Epstein files, and the fallout has been swift and telling. According to sources, Bongino was so frustrated with Bondi’s lack of transparency that he took the day off work on Friday, leading some to speculate that he might have quit altogether. Continue reading

Greg Laurie says ‘House of David’ and ‘The Chosen’ great for evangelism

(John Lanagan – The Word Like Fire) Reader, do you agree with Pastor Greg Laurie that “House of David” and “The Chosen” are great evangelistic opportunities? Yes? No? Leave your comments, pro or con, on the blog.

According to the Christian Post:

The new Prime Video series “House of David” is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about faith-based shows of the year — and for Pastor Greg Laurie, its release represents more than just good television. It’s an opportunity for cultural renewal, biblical literacy and, perhaps, revival on a massive scale. Continue reading

IRS Allows Politics in Church

“Churches can now endorse candidates from the Pulpit again, a freedom that never should have been taken away in the first place. The two most important things a church can do: 1) Preach the Gospel 2) Vote so you’re always free to do the first Praise God their free to do the second again.”

(Thomas Gallatin – The Patriot Post) In an effort to resolve a lawsuit brought by several Christian churches and religious organizations, the Internal Revenue Service has agreed to a more lenient interpretation of the Johnson Amendment, which prohibits tax-exempt organizations from engaging in political campaigns. Continue reading

Federal Judge Blocks Trump’s Executive Order Ending Birthright Citizenship for Illegals

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Once again, the will of the American people has been trampled by an unelected federal judge. Judge Joseph Laplante of New Hampshire shamelessly blocked President Trump’s executive order to end the outrageous abuse of birthright citizenship. In what can only be described as judicial activism run amok, Laplante didn’t just halt the order—he issued a sweeping, nationwide block by exploiting the class-action loophole, effectively sidestepping the Supreme Court’s recent ruling to rein in these overreaching injunctions. Continue reading
