(PNP) Black Lives Matter “protesters” continue to find new targets for their destructive behavior. Not content with toppling statues, looting, and setting buildings on fire, they’ve now found a new source to terrorize: Christian churches.
The rioters in question chose to target Grace Baptist Church in Troy, NY, because the Church was sponsoring an AR-15 giveaway, as is their practice. Protesters showed up in mass, storming the sanctuary and causing a disturbance…. Continue reading
The powers that be at Disney are far Left zealots who are fiercely anti-Christian. Over the years the company has been pushing New Age themes and their progressive political views on impressionable children. Disney television and film productions encourage sorcery, witchcraft, wizardry, necromancy, feminism, radical environmentalism, social justice, class warfare plus the LGBTQ agenda. Disney’s aim is to indoctrinate youngsters with a message they want to send which is decidedly liberal. Ever notice the recurring theme in Disney films: White males are inferior, bungling nitwits, unkind and mean, while women are smart, brave, problem solvers, kind and loving. Biased gender role-modeling, anyone?
Keeping this background in mind, here’s the report: Continue reading
4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. 5 I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned. John 15:4-6 (NASB)
Carefully read the passage I placed at the top of this post. The word “abide” is translated from the Greek word μενη. It and its forms such as μεινατε and μενητε are used in the Bible to refer to the subject of the sentence remaining or staying in the emphasized condition it is in…. Continue reading

“The long-term health risks of cross-sex hormones have been now been tracked over a lengthy period. These side-effects are often minimised or denied by trans activists,” Rowling explained, quoting Oxford professor Carl Henegan’s description of “the off-label use of puberty blockers on under-18s as an ‘unregulated live experiment on children’.”
(Breitbart) Harry Potter author Joanne ‘JK’ Rowling has again been targeted by trans activists for warning that children believed to be “trans” should not necessarily be “shunted towards hormones and surgery”. Continue reading
The Republican Jewish Coalition published a statement responding to the march saying it was “horrified by this vicious hatemongering by Black Lives Matter protesters.”
(Debra Danan – Breitbart) At pro-Palestinian Black Lives Matter rallies in New York and Washington, chants were heard calling for “Death to Israel,” “Death to America” and “From Gaza to Minnesota, globalize the Intifada!”
Several hundred protesters attended the July 1 demonstration in Brooklyn dubbed as a “Day of Rage” event, set to coincide with the earliest date Israel could begin its plans to apply Israeli law over parts of the West Bank and the Jordan Valley. Continue reading
“The mode of operating is the same: disapprove the words someone uses, sensationalize the awfulness of it, then use every method of force available to attack them…threaten to take away their livelihood, discredit their work, and then, by proxy, incite mobs to physically attack them and their property.”
(J.G. Carter – American Thinker) Increasingly, we see people holding unpopular views being attacked and refused a forum in which to speak. Through the threat of force and censorship to control people’s speech, free speech is under full assault. History is replete with others using similar tactics. As in the times before the Nazi rise to power, the Soviet gulag era, and Mao’s revolution, similar trends are prevalent today. Continue reading
21 I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. 22 For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, 23 but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members. 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death? 25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin. Romans 7:21-25 (NASB)
I was reading the profile of a Bible expositor that I greatly admire not long ago and was struck by this description of himself, “I am a notable sinner!” As I read that I reflected on my own spiritual condition and would have to agree with that statement as a description of me as well….

1 “Then the kingdom of heaven will be comparable to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 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 (NASB)
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…. Continue reading
“And what is this threshold opportunity that has the fevered swamps of radical leftists everywhere so smitten? It’s the chance to use the current pandemic crisis and racial unrest after George Floyd’s murder to sweep away the fundamental freedoms keeping socialism at bay. Their aim is to create an undreamed-of level of dependency on government and to fundamentally transform socialism’s unholy trinity: property, religion and family.”
(Frank Wright – WND) The chaos you and I have witnessed this year – from impeachment to pandemic to mob violence – is the unfolding of a plan, one that left unopposed could dismantle the very fabric of American society. This plan stands against the Word of God and the welfare of our nation. Continue reading
“There could be no greater place to celebrate America’s independence than this incredible majestic mountain monument to the greatest Americans that have ever lived,” Trump declared. “Today we pay tribute to the exceptional lives and extraordinary legacies of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt. I am here as your president to proclaim before the country and before the world this monument will never be desecrated, these heroes will never be defaced, their legacy will never ever be destroyed, their achievements will never be forgotten, and Mount Rushmore will stand forever as an eternal tribute to our forefathers and to our freedom!”
(Tyler O’Neil – PJ Media) At Mount Rushmore, President Donald Trump delivered a stunning Fourth of July rebuke to the iconoclast mobs and rampant cancel culture ravaging American life…. Continue reading

“Political correctness, has metastasized into “cancel culture.” It’s why two people in two recent days — one a cop, the other an acquaintance — told me what’s plain: They, and everyone else, are afraid to speak their minds, fearing career and reputational destruction. It’s why social media censorship is intensifying by the month. An iron muzzle has descended upon America, and what can’t be spoken against can’t be effectively combated.”
(Selwyn Duke – Renew America) “We’re just one election away from full-blown socialism,” a man recently said to me during a short conversation. This sentiment has become increasingly common lately, even, notably, among the previously apolitical. Yet something is overlooked: Continue reading
“Epstein’s famous plane, the Lolita Express, shuttled the rich and famous to his island in the Pacific for clandestine activity with underage girls. Maxwell is believed to have been involved up to her eyeballs in it and will now finally face justice … if she survives that long.”
(Megan Fox – PJ Media) Ghislaine Maxwell, longtime girlfriend and alleged “madam” for Jeffrey Epstein (who didn’t kill himself) has been arrested by the FBI at a luxurious estate in New Hampshire on charges of conspiracy, sex trafficking of minor children, and perjury. She is said to be under suicide watch and we all hope it goes better than that time her boyfriend was in a similar situation. Continue reading
Cotton painted a bleak picture of what awaits Hong Kongers who dare speak their minds. “Those convicted under the new law could face life imprisonment, alongside the many underground church leaders, Uighurs, Tibetans, Falun Gong members, and other persecuted individuals that the Chinese Communist Party has already ‘disappeared.’”
(Tyler O’Neil – PJ Media) On Thursday, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) gave a powerful speech about the Chinese Communist Party’s brutal crackdown on Hong Kong…. Continue reading
9 I was once alive apart from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died; 10 and this commandment, which was to result in life, proved to result in death for me; 11 for sin, taking an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it killed me. 12 So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good. Romans 7:9-24 (NASB) Read verses 13-24 on the site
If we are honest, each of us would have to confess that there are sins that have an incredible hold on us. It seems that no matter how devoted we become in our walk before our Lord, there will be some sins that trip us up, making us stumble and fall to our deep chagrin…. Continue reading
“Mandates. Since when has America been governed by an endless string of mandates? We can’t even take it to the Supreme Court because Chief Justice Roberts will just vote against us like he always does. It’s been a long time since he met a Far Left project that he didn’t like.”
(Lee Duigon – News With Views) Once upon a time American colonists, enraged by the high-handed tactics of Great Britain’s Parliament, threw a whole shipment of tea into Boston Harbor rather than pay a tax imposed on them without their having any say in it. Continue reading
“The universities, some with multibillion-dollar endowments, will accept no moral responsibility. They are not overly worried that many of their indebted graduates discover their majors don’t translate into well-paid jobs or guarantee employers that grads can write, speak, or think cogently.”
(Victor Davis Hanson – PJ Media) When mobs tore down a statue of Ulysses S. Grant and defaced a monument to African American veterans of the Civil War, many people wondered whether the protesters had ever learned anything in high school or college. Continue reading
(Joel B. Pollack – Breitbart) Black Lives Matter protests joined anti-Israel demonstrators in a nationwide “Day of Rage” on Wednesday that included calls for Israel’s destruction and claims that Israel murders children, an allusion to medieval antisemitic blood libels.
The Jewish News Service reported that antisemitic and anti-Israel groups organized the “Day of Rage” on July 1, the first day that Israel’s government said it could extend its law to Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria (the “West Bank”). Continue reading
15 Then she said, “Behold, your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and her gods; return after your sister-in-law.” 16 But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God. 17 Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried. Thus may the Lord do to me, and worse, if anything but death parts you and me.” 18 When she saw that she was determined to go with her, she said no more to her. Ruth 1:15-18 (NASB) Continue reading
People who are apathetic toward their own liberty cannot eliminate Constitutional rights for those who are not. This is not the first (or last) time that people who believe in superstition are screaming the loudest. The Constitution exists precisely to protect all during times of mass hysteria.
(Dr. Simone Gold – The Gold Opinion) It is clear to me as a physician-lawyer that the disinformation about both Covid-19 and the Constitution has caused us to turn a medical issue into a legal crisis. Continue reading
“Placing an order for body parts from a born alive infant uses the means of interstate commerce to obtain the death of a human being through organ harvesting. If the federal law is applied equally to born-alive infants, this is murder for hire.”
(Madeline Osburn – The Federalist) In a new video released by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP), Planned Parenthood and abortion industry officials give sworn testimony describing how babies born alive with beating hearts in their facilities are then harvested for organs. Continue reading
“Two aspects of the Shavuot pogrom expose the increasingly problematic nature of the relationship between the American Jewish community and the American left. … The first is the media’s indifference to anti-Jewish violence. Aside from a few Jewish reporters and Orthodox websites, the Shavuot pogrom was largely ignored. And when it was reported, the deliberately anti-Semitic character of the attacks was either downplayed or ignored altogether.”
(Caroline Glick – Frontpage Mag) The silence of the Jews of America in the face of rising anti-Semitism is stunning. Continue reading
(Thomas Lifson – American Thinker) Sidney Powell, the tenacious lawyer who corrected the judicial abuse of her client, General Michael Flynn, is reminding us that she and her client believe he was originally targeted for destruction because he was aiming to investigate what he believes was serious corruption at the CIA under its director, John Brennan. Via Lifezette:
Sidney Powell, attorney for retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, said her client, in his duties as the White House national security adviser, was prepared to “audit” the U.S. intelligence community…. Continue reading
2 The Lord said to Gideon, “The people who are with you are too many for Me to give Midian into their hands, for Israel would become boastful, saying, ‘My own power has delivered me.’ Judges 7:2 (NASB)
This walk before the face of God is fraught with difficulty and pain. No one who is His will pass through this life unscathed by affliction, perplexity, persecution, and even being struck down. That may fly in the face of much of the teaching in the Church in our time, but the reality is that Genuine Christians walk through this life being molded and conformed unto the image of Christ….

“One of the things I was trying to communicate to him was…we can’t be doing this virtue-signaling of just having conversations about race so it look like we’re on the page. We really gotta be about this.”
(Jeff Maples – Reformation Charlotte) Last week, Reformation Charlotte reported on the virtue-signaling stunt that Chick-fil-A CEO, Dan Cathy, pulled during a panel conversation with Louie Giglio where he got up, groveled at Lecrae’s feet, and shined his shoes because in an act of penance toward Lecrae because of the color of his skin….
