David Platt and McLean Bible Church Lose Million Dollar Lawsuit

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Since 2021, lawsuits have been plaguing McLean Bible Church. Salvador Cordova is a plaintiff in one of the lawsuits and he joined Evangelical Dark Web to talk about their recent victory in court against David Platt’s McLean Bible Church.

There are two lawsuits against MBC. The first one involved an election of a slate of elders that dissenting members are trying to overturn. This lawsuit was initially dismissed but it won an appeal. Cordova is not on this lawsuit which he describes as very technical. Instead, he is a plaintiff in a lawsuit suing MBC for being a Southern Baptist Church in violation of the church’s constitution….

Christian tears down and beheads Satan shrine in Iowa Capitol

Michael Cassidy, a Christian and former military officer, pushed over and decapitated the statue before he discarded the head in a trash can.

(Ben Zeisloft – The Sentinel) Michael Cassidy, a Christian and former military officer, tore down and beheaded a Satanist altar erected in the Iowa Capitol as the display provoked nationwide controversy, The Sentinel has exclusively learned.

Members of the Satanic Temple of Iowa recently received permission to install the exhibit, which included a statue depicting the idol Baphomet holding a pentacle and surrounded by candles, on the first floor of the Iowa Capitol near displays of the Nativity…. Continue reading

Christ Our Advocate

1 My little Children, these things I write to you so that you do not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous. 1 John 2:1 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)

Perfection is not for anyone is this life. The only perfect person who ever walked this Earth was the Lord Jesus Christ and the reason He could be perfect and was perfect is that He is deity. Part of His mission was actually to perfectly keep the Law in order to be the propitiation and only acceptable sacrifice in the Father’s eyes in place of those He came to save. We see this in the following verses. Continue reading

Civilization Versus the New Nihilists

Nihilism: the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) Nihilism is the religion of the Left. Anarchy is now at the core of the new Democratic Party.

If the Left wished radically to alter the demography of the U.S., it could have expanded legal immigration through legislation or the courts.

Instead, it simply erased the border and dynamited federal immigration law. Continue reading

Drag Queen Stands in Pulpit at Washington National Cathedral to ‘Pray’ to ‘Know Our Bodies’

(The Dissenter) Weird stuff. It just keeps getting weirder. Yesterday, we reported that drag queens were holding a “drag nativity” event depicting both Mary and the infant Jesus in drag. We also reported how a church was decking its halls in kinky drag decor and decorating its tree with drag queen memorabilia. And earlier, we reported that a homosexual couple, one of whom is particularly profane and gross in speaking about his sexual experiences with animals, had purchased two twin baby boys through the surrogacy programs and also how the Supreme Court recently sided with a Washington law that bans Christian intervention in LGBTQ youth counseling. This is all from just this week. Continue reading

The wonderful result of the mortification of sin

5 For we through the Spirit, by faith, are eagerly waiting for the hope of righteousness. 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love. Galatians 5:5-6 (LSB) 

This Christian walk is fraught with struggle against a deadly enemy. That enemy is the flesh. Our flesh is deceitful and has only one goal, which is, motivated by pride, to drive us to seek fulfillment through channels which will always result in the believer not walking in the Spirit, but according to it. It is very clever and can even conjure up false humility that is really pride in disguise…. Continue reading

Breaking: IHOP Founder Mike Bickle Admits to ‘Inappropriate Behavior’ + Deflects, Deflects, Deflects

“He borrowed a play from Johnny Hunt, saying that his sexual sins and adultery were private and none of the business of his church and ministry, and that because he dealt with them privately, there was no reason to confess them publicly until he was exposed, which perhaps explains why even now they are so vague and hazy.”

(Protestia) Mike Bickle, the false-prophet leader of the International House of Prayer (IHOPKC), has released a personal statement  regarding allegations against him, writing, “I sadly admit that 20+ years ago, I sinned by engaging in inappropriate behavior—my moral failures were real.” Continue reading

More than 1-in-5 Mail-In Voters Admit to Cheating in 2020 Election

“Americans have repeatedly been told that the 2020 election was the most secure in history. But if this poll’s findings are reflective of reality, the exact opposite is true.”

(John Binder – Breitbart) In the 2020 election, more than 1-in-5 voters who submitted ballots by mail say they did so fraudulently, a survey from Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute reveals.

The survey asked those who voted by mail in the 2020 election if they filled out a ballot “in part or in full, on behalf of a friend or family member, such as a spouse or child?” to which 21 percent said they had done so. Continue reading

Brought Near by the Blood of Christ

Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, the ones being called “Uncircumcision” by the ones being called “Circumcision,” done in the flesh by hand– 12 that you were at that time without Christ, having been alienated from the citizenship of Israel and strangers of the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you, the ones once being far off, have been brought near by the blood of Christ. (Ephesians 2:11-16 translated from the NA28 Greek text to English) Read verses 14-16 on the site.

We have been looking at our Justification, which is of course, by grace alone through faith alone apart from works. This truth cannot be challenged by anyone who is devoted to Sola Scriptura and abides to true exegetical standards of Biblical exposition. There are, of course, those who want to add things to this such as “Church Tradition” and “works” et cetera…. Continue reading

The Obamas just produced a viral Netflix show demonizing white people…

“Yet, during what some call Obama’s “third term,” the situation has only worsened. The nation is on the brink of collapse due to rising crime rates, political polarization, a horrific racial divide that has led to attacks and demonization of white Americans, a struggling economy, and the constant threat of international war. All in all, Obama’s “third term” is proving to be the most dangerous yet, and he’s about to conclude it with another contentious move…”

(Revolver) As you probably know, Barack and Michelle Obama are venturing into the movie industry. However, they’re not aiming to become the next Spielberg, entertaining us with blockbuster movies. Their objectives are political in nature. They intend to leverage their influence and prestige to promote the progressive agenda and anti-white narratives. And right now, their new movie is accomplishing exactly that. However, this shouldn’t be shocking to anyone, considering that Barry Soetoro was the most divisive and contentious president this country has ever seen. Continue reading

Supreme Court Sides With Washington Law Banning Christian Counseling for LGBTQ Issues for Minors

“On the surface, it may appear as a progressive stride towards inclusivity. However, the devil, as always, is in the details. Not only does this undermine the rights of individual minors seeking counseling, it also undermines the rights of parents to seek the best treatment for their children’s sin—the gospel.”

(The Dissenter) The momentous legal battle of Brian Tingley v. Robert W. Ferguson, Attorney General of Washington, et al., rises from the pages of court dockets, emerging as a case of monumental import. Far from being a mere footnote in legal journals, this case represents a critical battleground, a defining moment that will shape the future of religious liberty and free speech in America…. Continue reading

Corruption, Beyond a Reasonable Doubt

Up until this point, the powerful corporate news agencies, especially The Washington Post of Watergate fame, The New York Times, and NBC News, basically covered for the Biden family, even attacking those seeking the truth. In fact, only a very few media outlets, like The New York Post, pursued the story.

(Bill O’Reilly) The word “corruption” is to easily thrown around. It is a dangerous thing, especially when embraced by the powerful, so caution should be used when alleging it. Continue reading

Suffering For God’s Glory

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to obtain an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and unfading, having been kept in heaven for you, 5 who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, 7 so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:3-7 (LSB) 

I doubt that I am unique in my dread of fiery trials. I have been a Christian long enough to know, however, that despite what men such as Joel Osteen preach and teach, testing by fire is the way God perfects our faith unto completion to prepare us to be before Him in glory…. Continue reading

Pro-Palestinian Radicals Target Symbols of Christianity

(Joel B. Pollak – Breitbart) Radical pro-Palestinian demonstrations appear to have developed a new tactic: they are targeting Christmas tree lightings across the country, and other Christian symbols, in addition to symbols of Israel and Jewish institutions.

The latest example was Friday’s protest in Los Angeles, where pro-Palestinian radicals marched from a fundraiser for President Joe Biden to an area where there are several synagogues. They sprayed anti-Israel graffiti on the walls opposite the synagogues, and also vandalized a local church. Continue reading

Debunking Leftists Myths About Jesus – Jesus Was a Refugee

“Let’s clear the historical air. When Joseph and Mary fled to Egypt with Jesus, they were moving within the Roman Empire’s borders. Egypt was not a foreign entity but a part of the same imperial system as Israel.” 

(The Dissenter) In our ongoing series to debunk leftist myths about Jesus, we’ve already dismantled several: from the mischaracterization of Him as a socialist, a radical environmentalist, to an advocate of modern gender ideologies. These myths emerge from a fundamental error: overcontextualizing the Gospel, leading to a reshaping of Jesus into a figure more palatable to contemporary, often political leftist, sensibilities. Continue reading

Christian Assurance

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; 2 Peter 1:1-2 (LSB) 

God is good. I struggle at times trying to explain certain doctrines in a way that anyone reading these posts will clearly understand them, but God, being good, really helps me put these posts together and also, I’m convinced helps those who are truly seeking HIs truth to understand what He has helped me post….

For True Evil, Look Not to Israel or America but to Communism

“Young people and their elders who cheer the gleeful torture and murders of Oct. 7 do not understand what true evil is like. They could get a better idea at the Victims of Communism Museum.”

(Michael Barone – The Patriot Post) For those dismayed at how many college and university students and faculty, even, or especially, at selective and prestigious institutions, have been cheering Hamas’ Oct. 7 atrocities and calling, in only slightly veiled language, for the destruction of Israel and genocide of Jews, the question is how this vicious line of thought gained hold in American secondary and higher education. Continue reading

A Short History of Joe’s Long Record of Lying About Biden Inc.

“There was overwhelming direct evidence that Joe was a willing participant, at the very least, in creating the impression that influence trading was happening and plenty of circumstantial evidence that the elder Biden was getting a 10% cut for the troubles.”

(David Harsanyi – PJ Media) After being asked the other day why he’s interacted with “so many” foreign associates of his son Hunter and brother James, President Joe Biden responded by claiming the allegations were “a bunch of lies.”

This, of course, wasn’t the first time the president blatantly lied about his role in the family influence peddling business. Continue reading

Penn loses $100M donation after school president’s Hill testimony on campus antisemitism

(Charlotte Hazard – Just the News) The University of Pennsylvania lost a $100 million donation following school President Liz Magill’s congressional testimony Tuesday about how antisemitism and hate speech are handled on campus.

Attorneys for Ross Stevens, founder and CEO of Stone Ridge Asset Management, wrote a letter to Penn’s Senior Vice President, saying he would be withdrawing his donation.

“Mr. Stevens and Stone Ridge are appalled by the University’s stance on antisemitism on campus,” the letter reads. Continue reading
