How wrong is AOC about Rush Limbaugh’s Medal of Freedom? Let us count the ways.

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , ,

“She throws something in there about Rush being a racist, of course, because everyone to the right of Lenin is a racist, like, totally.”

(Adam Ford – Disrn)  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was at it again today, freshening up her makeup and placing her glasses atop her head before whipping out her phone, firing up her Instagram Live, and saying something completely inane and incorrect.

This time she hit Trump and recently stage-4-cancer-diagnosed Rush Limbaugh over last night’s Medal of Freedom presentation: Continue reading →

Posted by ∙ ∙ In News ∙ , , , , , , , , ,

The Swiss Broadcasting Corporation reports that some members of the public have lashed out at Läderach over its stance on life and marriage, as homosexual and abortion “rights” advocates have accused it of “funding hatred.”

The cancellation of Franklin Graham’s tour events is a seminal moment for the UK

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , , , , ,

“Many of our civic institutions have been taken over by an ideology which is fundamentally anti-democratic, anti-factual and intolerant – in the name of tolerance. The State, having replaced God, has become the source of all morality and values. If you don’t agree with those values you are not one of ‘the people’. You are untermenschen. You are out.”

(David Robertson – EvangelicalFocus) This week, something of great significance has happened in the UK. Something that has implications far beyond its shores and that will affect the Church and Western democracy for years to come. Continue reading →

The Testing of Your Faith

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Devotion/Teaching

2 Consider it all joy my brothers whenever you fall into various trials 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance have its full effect that you may be mature and complete lacking in nothing. James 1:2-4 (translated from the NA28 Greek text) 

The man-centered religions that claim to be “Christian” in our time could never take James 1:2-4 literally. No, instead, they must demand from their own man-made Jesus that they have their best life now and that the Sun stand still so that they can fulfill the vision that they claim to have received from him….

Shawn Bolz/Bob Jones and the Prophetic Significance of the Chiefs Super Bowl Win

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , , , ,

“Follow the logic here. God wants to raise up His chiefs, or apostolic leaders, in many spheres of influence as a sign that there is an end times revival. Apparently, He cannot just do this because He is God. Instead He must tie it to the outcome of a carnal football game played by carnal, unsaved men. If the 49ers won, He would have to sit on His plan until another year when the Chiefs might get a shot at winning the Super Bowl.”

(Anthony Wade – 828 Ministries)  The last time a false prophet ventured into the unknown waters of the Super Bowl it was David Taylor. At least he had the guts to take a 50-50 shot that Peyton Manning and the Broncos would defeat the Seattle Seahawks…. Continue reading →

SOTU: The unspeakable ungraciousness of the Democrats in Congress

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , ,

Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler systematically destroyed the Democrat party are to blame for their own demise.

“The most egregiously infuriating aspect of the night was the persistent despicable behavior of the Democrats who were in the room.  They acted like small children, infantilized by their hatred of this president and their belief that Americans must be taken care of according to their specifications.  They demeaned themselves with their pathetic behavior at an event like this SOTU speech by refusing to acknowledge any of this president’s   victories.  A few of the usual suspects  walked out during the speech, a feeble attempt to demonstrate their contempt.”  

(Patricia McCarthy – American Thinker)  President Trump’s SOTU speech Tuesday night was spectacular on every level. It was unabashedly pro-American, pro-law-enforcement, pro-border security, pro-religious freedom, pro-life, pro-school choice and pro-the American job and economic comeback, and then some; there was so much more, all of it positive, optimistic.  This president has indeed begun to make America great again.

White House Officially Responds To Pelosi Ripping Up President Trump’s Speech

Posted by ∙ ∙ In News ∙ , , ,

Pelosi started off the SOTU by breaking tradition in refusing to announce President Trump properly. “Protocol, as decades of past SOTU addresses show, is for the House Speaker to announce the president by noting that it is their ‘high privilege and distinct honor’ to do so.”

(James Barrett – Daily Wire)  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) dominated the headlines following President Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday after she, standing directly behind the president, ripped up his speech for all the world to see, later telling the press that she did so because it was a “dirty speech” and that shredding it was better than the “alternative.”… Continue reading →

The Pillar and Support of the Truth

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Devotion/Teaching

14 These I write to you hoping to come to you quickly; 15 but if I delay, that you may know how one ought to conduct oneself in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and support of the truth. 1 Timothy 3:14-15 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)

When Paul wrote his first epistle to Timothy which we call “1 Timothy,” Timothy was the pastor of the Ephesian church. Ephesus was home to the pagan temple to the goddess Diana or Artemis, which is considered on of the seven wonders of the ancient world. One of its features was its pillars. It contained 127 pillars, every one of them the gift of a king…. Continue reading →

Republicans Troll Democrats Into Oblivion Over Iowa Caucus Disaster. Here Are The Best Responses.

Posted by ∙ ∙ In News ∙ , ,

“After the debacle in Iowa, WHERE NOT A SINGLE VOTE HAS BEEN REPORTED, it’s abundantly clear that Democrats are the single greatest threat to election security and integrity in this country. Not Trump, not Russia, not Ukraine. Democrats.”

(Paul Bois – Daily Wire)  The Democratic Party Iowa caucuses on Monday night unfolded like an AFC playoff game in which the NFC team somehow came out the winner. As the hours ticked well past midnight with no precincts reporting the results, allegedly due to a faulty app, President Trump and the Republican  Party were handed victory on a silver platter as the nation watched Democrats implode under the weight of gross incompetence.

Satan’s Strategy: What’s to Fear?

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , ,

“Sometimes fleeing temptation means removing myself physically from a situation where the temptation to sin is great. With regard to some movies, for example, fleeing temptation may well mean leaving the room (or better yet, checking out the movie’s content before exposing yourself to the temptation). Sometimes fleeing temptation means removing myself electronically from compromising situations. I flee temptation when I install software to prevent viewing pornography on my computer.” 

(Robert Spinney – Reformation 21)  Satan tempts us to not fear sin, so that we will not keep a safe distance from it. Continue reading →

21 Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the outcome of those things is death. Romans 6:21 (NASB) 

As many of you know I am a Southern Baptist. However, things sure have changed over the last few years. I have said in other posts how becoming Reformed in my theology helped me tremendously to both to become more mature as a Christian and also to become more discerning.

BREAKING: Rush Limbaugh Announces He Has ‘Advanced Lung Cancer’

“So, I have to tell you something today that I wish I didn’t have to tell you. It’s a struggle for me because I had to inform my staff earlier today,” he said. “I can’t help but feel that I’m letting everybody down. The upshot is that I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer.”

(Brian Floyd – Fox News) Talk radio king Rush Limbaugh stunned his 27-million member audience Monday with the announcement he’s been diagnosed with “advanced lung cancer.” The 69-year-old conservative talk pioneer closed his broadcast with the grim news, saying he will be leaving his golden EIB microphone for treatment, but hopes to return soon.

The Struggles of the Christian Life

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , , ,

As you face struggles in your life today, whether they be great or small, know that God has a purpose and plan behind each of them. We are never at the hand of fate or chance. The Christian has a loving heavenly father who is testing, correcting, and building our faith by the situations of our lives.

(Kyle E. Sims – Gentle Reformation)  Struggles are a significant part of the Christian life. If our view of God and life is too simple, then it can lead to frustration and fear. We are left to wonder, “If God is in control, then why am I facing this struggle? If God’s eternal plan is working, then why did he plan for me to deal with these issues in my life?” These are fair questions, but ones for which we must come to a correct answer….

Global Awakening or Global Darkness?

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , ,

“After posting the last two videos of what’s currently going on at Bethel, I received a lot of comments on Instagram and Facebook from Charismatic/Pentecostal brothers and sisters in Christ who expressed that “EVEN THEY” can see that what Bethel is doing is not of God & is completely unbiblical. That truly speaks volumes to me and I hope that speaks volumes to those at Bethel too.”

(Churchwatch Central)  Over the last few days there’s been some bizarre videos doing the rounds on social media in regards to an event in Bethel Redding – an event where we see NARpostle Randy Clark clearly ‘imparting’ something incredibly dark and demonic. The event was part of Randy Clark’s Global Awakening (‘Voice of the Prophets, Come Dream Again’) movement – and of course we should never be surprised to see Bethel Church, Redding and Bill Johnson partnering with such unbiblical events.

“We must pray for all the churches out there who brought crotch-grabbing, pelvic-thrusting, air-humping hussies into the church. May the Lord grant them repentance and wisdom.”

“So, in case you missed it during the #HalftimeShow, this powerful moment showed children in ‘cages’ as “Born In The USA” played… the statement. the power. wow.”

“I don’t expect the world to act like the church, but our country has had a sense of moral decency on prime time television in order to protect children. We see that disappearing before our eyes. It was demonstrated tonight in the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show—with millions of children watching.”

12 Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. 13 But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 2 Timothy 3:12-13 (NASB) 

The Christian has been called by God to serve the Lord Jesus as His bondservant (δουλος). This role of bondservant also includes being His obedient disciple and valiant warrior. I grew up in an era in which there just was not much turmoil in the churches I was part of. Continue reading →

The Christian is a new creation

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Devotion/Teaching

What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his. (Romans 6:1-14 ESV) Read verses 6-14 on the site.

The Doctrine of Regeneration tells Christians that the life they live now will not be as it once was, but will take on the characteristics of regeneration. The Christian is a new creation…. Continue reading →

Should we care about a Bible teacher’s lifestyle?

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , ,

“One of the other frequent accusations I received, aside from the usual nonsense of me being jealous or covetous, is that writing about a Bible teacher’s lifestyle is none of my business. To the contrary, it is all our business. Ministry money is involved, the teacher’s lifestyle is reflective of what is in their heart, what they heap up and what they care about.” 

(Elizabeth Prata – The End Time)  I tweeted about Beth Moore’s lifestyle today. I knew what would happen. That does not deter me though. Here’s what I tweeted in reaction to a disingenuous photo tweet from Moore about her cutesy lifestyle. Continue reading →

“Sure, Evangelicals and Catholics have some words in common, but they mean entirely different things. Grace, faith, saints, church, Jesus, Mary are all words that we might both say but they are entirely different in meaning.

Lauren Daigle and the Fruit of ‘Losing Her Religion’

Posted by ∙ ∙ In Opinion ∙ , , , , , , , ,

“She took her personal dream of stardom and attributed it to God.  There is much danger in this kind of mystical dream interpretation. It may have come to pass, but God does not affirm pursuit of the praise of men and I cannot say this is anything more than her pursuit of a personal desire.”

(Laura M) “It would be a sad dishonor for a child of God to be the world’s favorite. It is a very bad sign to hear a wicked world clap its hands and shout, “Well done!” to the Christian…Far be it from us to seek a crown of honor where the Lord found a crown of thorns.”  CH Spurgeon

But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death.  James 1:14-15

Temptation is an issue that Christians rarely talk about these days. Even the word itself has quietly slipped out of religious use, becoming instead a term used to boost sales of perfume and chocolates. Attempting to create an electrifying name that would attract big audiences, television producers titled a reality show “Temptation Island.”…. Continue reading →
