1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:1-6 (LSB) Read verses 5-6 on the site.
It is one thing to confess Christ or profess to be a Christian and quite another to live and walk before the face of God within that confession or profession in obedience to God and His Word. There are so many in our time who claim to be Christians, but whose lives are marked by them speaking and living according to the world and its ways… Continue reading

“God forbids any sort of participation in paganism for our own protection. His reason is simple: its roots are steeped in pagan idolatry and drug use. The occult world is an open door to Satan’s world. Those who enter find themselves on a quest for ‘hidden wisdom’ or ‘deeper truth.’ And, not surprisingly, the sought after ‘hidden wisdom’ is not meant for everyone, it’s meant for a select few such as New Age disciples and gurus.”
(Protestia) Russell Moore has stepped down from his position as editor-in-chief of Christianity Today, with senior news editor Marvin Olasky taking his place, according to a 
“These voices are not enemies but allies. The church doesn’t need fewer voices, the church needs a unified voice that covers the full range of Christian witness. Prophets must keep speaking hard truths, evangelists must keep reaching the lost, and shepherds must keep tending the flock. But each must learn to appreciate the others. Each serves a different need, and the church suffers when one is elevated at the expense of the others.”
(Robert Spencer – Front Page Magazine) Monday was a festive day, with the whole world seemingly celebrating the dawn of peace in the Middle East and hailing President Trump for bringing it about. The president himself, while speaking about the release of the hostages in his speech to the Knesset,

“Transgenderism is effectively over. We destroyed it. Clearest and most decisive cultural win that conservatives have ever achieved.”
“Trump has awarded a string of presidential medals going back to his first term, including to golf legend Tiger Woods, ex-football coach Lou Holtz and conservative economist Arthur Laffer as well as to Yankees Hall of Fame closer Mariano Rivera and conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh, the latter of which came during the 2020 State of the Union….”
“The papacy did it as a gesture of hospitality. Who can forget how they allowed a display with a keffiyeh on Baby Jesus in the Vatican? They are very hospitable.”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) This is going to be a quick one. Yes, commentary is my gig here, but we occasionally need to enjoy the good news without too many words; like the way Vin Scully handled Kirk Gibson’s home run in 1988.
(Emmy Griffin – The Patriot Post) We have often fretted about the devastatingly low U.S. birth rate and the fact that couples aren’t having many children. However, as podcaster Brett Cooper recently 
As the Anglican priest Bart Gingerich has noted, “If you’re scared of upsetting people all the time and driving certain folks away because of clear moral stances that have political implications, lose that fear or stop pastoring.” While Christians shouldn’t simply be an appendage of the Republican Party—that is, they shouldn’t simply go along with whatever the party dictates—it’s obvious that the political Right is far closer to implementing the moral order that Christianity envisions than the Left. And it’s not particularly close.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked Trump effusively for his support for Israel over the years — a “partial list” that included his role in the hostage deal; for recognizing Israeli rights in Judea and Samaria, for the Abraham Accords, and for opposing Iran’s nuclear ambitions and attacking Iran’s nuclear sites. Netanyahu added: “Donald Trump is the greatest friend that Israel has ever had in the White House.”
(Bill O’Reilly) Let’s talk about presidential power. It can cut both ways, and as a loyal American, you should be thinking about this because it directly affects your well-being.
“How does the biblical queen Jezebel fit into all of this? Indeed, Jezebel was an evil queen who was an evil, manipulative conniver and persecutor of God’s prophets, which we read about in 2 Kings. What did she have to do with any of this, especially since the story about hiring witches to do a hit on Charlie Kirk was a satirical response to “Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric over the years”? Nothing.”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Apologies for evoking John and Yoko with the headline, but I wanted something pithy.
Watch the entire clip on the site. Is Candace’s claim falling apart?
“While many are happy for him, others have taken to social media to express displeasure about the lack of transparency from a man who is not just a pastor, but rather a very public figure who has intentionally cultivated a larger platform.”
