Democrats, Not Trump Or His Supporters, Are The Real Extremists

“On abortion, [Democrats] take the extreme position that it should be allowed up until the moment of birth, then denounce Republican-led states that impose restrictions that are the norm across the Western world. On transgenderism, they insist children can consent to genital mutilation and sterilization, then condemn modest efforts to ban or limit these practices as child abuse. On immigration, they throw open the southern border and let 10 million illegal immigrants flood into the country, then attack anyone who suggests we have a crisis at the border and need to secure it.”

(John Daniel Davidson – The Federalist) Hot on the heels of a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling on Monday that states have “no power” to remove former President Donald Trump from the ballot, Democrats and their lackeys in the corporate press denounced the court for supposedly meddling or interfering in the election.

Justice Department Serves as the SBC’s Pontius Pilate: ‘What Crime Have They Committed?’

(David Morrill – Protestia) In yet another rebuke to the so-called #SBCToo movement, the United States Department of Justice has reportedly closed a 2022 probe into Southern Baptist Convention leaders’ criminal responsibility for mishandling abuse allegations. The investigation resulted in no charges.

As reported by the Tennessean, the DOJ opened up the investigation in the wake of a Guidepost Solutions investigation commissioned by 2021’s Sex Abuse Task Force and the Guidepost report published prior to the 2022 Annual Meeting…. Continue reading

J.K. Rowling Nukes Argument for Biological Men in Women’s Bathrooms

“It is too seldom noted that every single man arguing for the removal of single-sex spaces is arguing for his own right to enter those spaces. I know from experience that they feign outrage when this point is put to them, gibbering that they’re just being good, virtuous progressives who’re standing up for trans women, that they personally won’t be availing themselves of the new opportunities afforded them.”

(Catherine Salgado – PJ Media) Delusional leftists believe that, with a wave of their wands, they can magically become members of the opposite sex — with a right to use whichever locker room they like. “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling called out just how such policies exponentially increase the opportunity for male sexual predators to prey on girls and women. Continue reading

The Coming Judgment of God on the Modern American Church

“Leviticus warns of the ultimate degradation of moral fiber, illustrating the extreme measures to which God is willing to go in order to cleanse His people of their sinfulness. “You shall eat the flesh of your sons, and you shall eat the flesh of your daughters.” —Leviticus 26:29”

(The Dissenter) All throughout the History of the Church, the Bride of Christ, has stood a harlot who masquerades as the elect but lures people into the depths of darkness with seductive words and practices…. Continue reading

If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him

4 You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity toward God? Therefore, whoever wishes to be a friend of the world sets himself as an enemy of God. James 4:4 (LSB) 

Compromise is a term the world system likes. In fact, the world system as we know it in our time runs on rails greased by compromise. Even though the U.S. Constitution protects the right of free speech to its citizens, the political correctness movement is doing all it can to squelch or smother the expression of “opinion” that is contrary to what it deems as inoffensive. It appears that the right of the easily offended is more protected than the right of those who speak the truth and live by it…. Continue reading

Christian employers do not have to pay for transgender surgeries, federal judge rules

(Grant Haun – The Sentinel) The Biden administration was barred on Monday from forcing nonprofit and for-profit Christian healthcare providers to pay for purported “gender transition” surgeries and hormones.

Christian Employers Alliance, represented by attorneys at the Alliance Defending Freedom, had asked the United States District Court for the District of North Dakota to stop the Biden administration from enforcing two rules that prevent Christian companies from discriminating over the “gender identity” of patients and employees….

Reject Vice. Just Say No – No porn, no pot, no gambling, no video games, no tattoos, no profanity

“A community with this moral ecology would be valuable to anyone. A logical place to create one would be the church. But I think it would be very difficult for evangelical churches to create this culture when it comes to vice. They struggle with anything they can’t describe as objectively sinful or linked to some Biblical proof text. Porn is obviously wrong. But is it a sin to buy a lottery ticket or get a tattoo? I’d say no.”

(Aaron Renn) In his 1987 novel The Bonfire of the Vanities, Tom Wolfe wrote, “If you want to live in New York, you’ve got to insulate, insulate, insulate.” Continue reading

The light of the world

14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; 15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:14-16 (LSB) 

While Joel and Victoria Osteen believe that our Lord’s command to let your light shine before others is to prosper and show everyone how God is blessing you, this is not what He was talking about in the passage above at all…. Continue reading

Top Evangelical Leftist Ring-Leaders are Even Further Left Than ‘I Don’t Know What a Woman Is’ Ketanji Brown Jackson

“Despite all of this, two of the nation’s top Evangelical liberal figureheads, Russell Moore and David French, are even further left than these far-left progressive activists on the Supreme Court.”

(The Dissenter) The appointment of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the United States Supreme Court has cast a long shadow over the principles of constitutional fidelity and judicial restraint. Her ascent to the bench, celebrated by progressives, is an unmitigated testament to the far-left’s grip on the levers of power, where ideology most often trumps impartiality…. Continue reading

Do you have the mind of Christ?

13 Who has encompassed the Spirit of Yahweh, Or as His counselor has informed Him? Isaiah 40:13 (LSB) 

When we observe Christian leaders operate according to the world’s standards and methods with pastors taking on roles other than shepherd of the sheep then responding to righteous criticism with further deception, what we are actually witnessing are professing Christians not walking within the wisdom that is available to all true believers via the Mind of Christ. This same situation is seen in all who have been deceived by and drawn into the “Innovation Cult” as well…. Continue reading

Dallas Jenkins Lies About Mormons And The Chosen Not Being A Ministry

“Dallas Jenkins begins answering the Mormon question by explaining that The Chosen is no longer working through Angel Studios, a Mormon-owned company, but declines to go into more detail. Allen Parr seems to be aware of the lawsuits surrounding The Chosen’s strained relationship with its former distributor.”

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) The Chosen has been on a media campaign for its fourth season and Dallas Jenkins tapped Allen Parr for an interview where he responds to criticisms about the show. Allen Parr is a woke player in Christian YouTube defending Eric Mason and attacking discernment ministries…. Continue reading

Atheist Group Asks IRS To Strip Tax-Exempt Status from Megachurch After Political Endorsement From Pulpit

(Protestia) The Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF) is asking the IRS to remove the tax-exempt status from Calvary Chapel Chino Hills church after Senior pastor Jack Hibbs seemingly made a political endorsement of former MLB player Steve Garvey to the California Senate from the pulpit, a violation of their 501(c)(3) status. In a letter sent to the IRS they explain:

On Sunday, February 25, 2024, Pastor Jack Hibbs once again used his Sunday service to endorse a political candidate, telling his congregation to “vote for Steve Garvey” in the upcoming CA primary. Continue reading

SCOTUS Unanimously Rules States Cannot Disqualify Trump from 2024 Ballot

(Bradley Jaye – Breitbart)  Colorado cannot disqualify former President Donald Trump from appearing on the 2024 ballot, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously Monday.

In a historic ruling, the Supreme Court said only Congress can disqualify a candidate from the ballot using the Fourteenth Amendment’s “Insurrection Clause”, overturning a 4-3 opinion in December from the Colorado Supreme Court that the provision prohibits former President Donald Trump from appearing on the ballot for the presidency in 2024. Continue reading

A Disingenuous Christian?

18 Now when Simon saw that the Spirit had been bestowed through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money, 19 saying, “Give this authority to me as well, so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” 20 But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you supposed you could obtain the gift of God with money! 21 You have no part or portion in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. 22 Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray earnestly to the Lord that, if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of unrighteousness.” Acts 8:18-23 (LSB) 

In these times of the “Compromised Church” with very little knowledge of historical Christianity and what makes up what is truly Orthodox, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised when I’m called a heretic and false teacher for teaching Reformation Theology and then revealing that my view of eschatology is (gasp) not dispensational/pre-millennialism…. Continue reading

The Left’s Latest Attack on Christianity

“There is no United States of America — at least as it was designed and as we have known it — without natural law. In place of the internal restraints on antisocial behavior provided by widespread religious belief, the Left instead argues — always — for the growth of government to rein in the chaos created by their own encouragement of license. We need only look at our cities to see what this has wrought.”

(Laura Hollis – The Patriot Post) In a paroxysm of panic about Americans’ rejection of the Biden administration’s policies of open borders, rampant crime, runaway inflation and profligate spending on foreign wars, the Left has decided that the real cause of the widespread dissatisfaction and demand for policies that place Americans first is “Christian nationalism.” Continue reading

Impeachment Bombshell: James Biden Confirms that Joe Biden Received $40K From China

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) During his testimony in the impeachment inquiry, James Biden admitted that a Chinese government-linked company, CEFC China Energy, funded a $40,000 check that went to Joe Biden in 2017.

James Biden claimed that he did not believe that CEFC China Energy was under the control of the CCP. He clarified, stating, “I just misspoke” about a previous statement he made during a 2022 IRS interview…. Continue reading

4 Biblical Reasons I Rejected Evolution

The famous Atheist apologist Richard Dawkins is correct when he says, “The evangelical Christians have really got it right in seeing evolution as the enemy. Whereas the more sophisticated theologians are quite happy to live with evolution are deluded – I think the evangelicals have got it right in that there really is a deep incompatibility between evolution and Christianity.”

(Jim McCarthy – Gospel Reformation) As a freshman biology major, I needed no convincing of the Theory of Evolution. Raised on the Discovery Channel and Bill Nye the Science Guy, I’d been an Evolution evangelist for years. But by the end of my first year in college, I rejected the Theory I once loved. My grounds were scientific in nature. Continue reading

Assurance and Election

1 Simeon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received the same kind of faith as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the full knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; 3 seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the full knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. 2 Peter 1:1-11 (LSB)  Read verses 4-11 on the site.

After God dragged me from my former Arminian doctrinal beliefs into the truth of Reformed Theology, my assurance of my salvation did not suffer at all. In fact, it deepened as the profundity of our salvation by grace and justification by faith became apparent to me. I no longer had a fractured or nebulous picture of God’s eternal plan. Continue reading

American Paralysis and Decline

“Apparently, our generation prefers being praised as “virtuous” and “caring.” So it leaves the next generation to be smeared as “cruel” and “unfair” when it is forced to cut federal entitlements and bloated government or face civilizational collapse.”

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) We can bear neither our diseases nor their remedies.”

So shrugged the ancient historian Livy (59 B.C.- A.D. 17) of the long decline of Roman national character that, in his age, finally ended the Roman Republic. Continue reading

Precious and Magnificent Promises

1 Simeon Peter, a slave and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received the same kind of faith as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the full knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; 3 seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the full knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. 4 For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust. 2 Peter 1:1-4 (LSB)

When I was relatively young in my faith, I discovered 2 Peter Chapter 1. I was going through a period of learning about what it meant to be a disciple of my Lord Jesus Christ. I desperately wanted to avoid being simply a religious Christian. When I studied this passage, it looked like some very great promises to believers if they would apply what Peter was talking about…. Continue reading

The Ever-Increasing Seduction of False Teachers in Our Postmodern Fallen World

“This moral compromise does not merely lead individuals astray—it erodes the very foundations of the church, remaking it from a guardian of light and truth in a dark world into a mirror of the world’s own quagmire of sin and despair. The call to holiness, a defining mark of the Christian’s life, is overshadowed by a pursuit of personal happiness and cultural approval, betraying the gospel and the One who called us to follow Him, no matter the cost.”

(The Dissenter) In the verdant beauty of Eden, where humanity first walked with God, the serpent’s whisper, “Did God really say…?” marked the inception of humanity’s tragic fall. This ancient deception mirrors a modern crisis, as the world, and the vast majority of the professing Church, reels under the seduction of false teachers…. Continue reading
