Classified Docs Found at Biden Think Tank, FBI Investigation Underway

The documents were found in a folder in a box amongst unclassified papers, sources say. It is not currently known what level of classification the documents had, but according to the sources, there were “nuclear secrets.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Two people familiar with the investigation informed CBS News that Attorney General Merrick Garland has directed the U.S. attorney in Chicago to examine classified materials discovered at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement in Washington, D.C.

Woke M&M’s packaging features ‘Fat-Positive’ and ‘Lesbian’ Candies

(Protestia) Last year, the confectionery giant Mars announced a revamp to their product line M&M, in order to give them a “fresh, modern take on the looks of our beloved characters and more nuanced personalities to underscore the importance of self-expression and power of community through storytelling” along with an “updated tone of voice that is more inclusive, welcoming, and unifying, while remaining rooted in our signature jester wit and humor.” Continue reading

Authentic Christians in the World

Last night in our Small Group we were discussing how each of us spend time in the Word and prayer on a daily basis in order to draw closer to God and surrender more and more so that we will become the disciples our Lord wants us to be. When my turn came, I made the statement that, yes, I did start each day in the Word and prayer and reading devotions from Charles Spurgeon, Oswald Chambers, and Ligonier Ministries, but I believed that the thing that helped me the most was the research I did in preparation to write these posts. I must admit that usually I begin with one thing in mind that I want to write about, but it more often than not, changes as I develop a post…. Continue reading

Matt Gaetz, Mad Genius

“It’s more than fair to call last week’s festivities a circus. The thing about circuses is, they’re a lot like the cotton candy they serve: enjoyed in the moment and quickly forgotten….So what about the substance? PJ Media detailed that over the weekend, so you might have missed it.”

(Stephen Green – PJ Media) It’s easy to dismiss Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz, with the perfectly coiffed hair, the beach tan, the made-for-TV theatrics, and what I assume must be veneers. It’s easy — but it’s wrong, as new (and newly chastened) House Speaker Kevin McCarthy learned last week. Continue reading

Highly Influential False Teacher, Jack Hayford, Dies at 88

Hayford was also heavily involved in the Evangelical “climate change” movement and promotes Dominionist Kingdom Now Theology, which is the belief that it is the church’s responsibility to take control of the world – a belief evident in the lyrics of his song “Majesty.” 

(The Dissenter) Jack Hayford, a highly influential charismatic Evangelical leader, has passed away at 88. Hayford, who composed more than 500 charismatic hymns in the modern worship scene, was highly influential in is largely responsible for a lot of the mainstream charismatic influence in modern Evangelical worship….

Former trans, gay activist aims to ‘de-program’ children from woke indoctrination: ‘Children cannot consent’

“K. Yang says her ‘non-coercive’ work aims to educate others to make the best decisions for their families”

(Fox News) Former trans and gay activist K. Yang is turning the tables on woke ideology and setting out to undo public schools’ indoctrination by “de-programming” children who have been exposed to radical gender ideology in the classroom. Continue reading

Chaos in Brazil: Protesters Storm Capital, Destroying Supreme Court and Congress

(Breitbart) Thousands of opponents of socialist convicted felon President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva stormed his offices and the headquarters of the Congress and Supreme Federal Tribunal (STF) of Brazil on Sunday, reportedly demolishing the facades of two of the three buildings and causing “irreparable” damage to priceless artifacts in the chambers.

The riot in Brasilia occurred while Lula himself was in Sao Paulo state assessing the damage of recent floods…. Continue reading

Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me

Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me—to keep me from exalting myself! 8 Concerning this I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might leave me. 9 And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions and hardships, for the sake of Christ, for when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:7-10  Read Philippians 4:10-13 on the site.

What ails the Church the most at this time in the early 21st Century is actually the root of most, if not all, of the growing apostasy we are witnessing. This ailment is the product of decades upon decades of poor doctrine and man-serving preaching and teaching. God has given the Church, except for His Remnant, a spirit of stupor that has blinded them so that they have believed the lie that the center of all things is not Christ, but themselves….

The High Calling of God

1 Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of teaching about washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment. Hebrews 6:1-2 (LSB) 

Many years ago, my wife and I were members of the same church we belong to now, but it was much smaller back then and the leadership was completely different than it is now. It was also at a completely different location. We had been members there for several years when we got a new pastor. I was a deacon and a Bible teacher…. Continue reading

13 Big Predictions for 2023

(Theodore Rosevelt Malloch – American Greatness) Hold on to your seat. But, please, don’t take any of this so literally that you bank on it or sell all of your possessions and move to the top of a mountain to wait in vain for some finale.

Truth is, I am not Nostradamus and I have no crystal ball. I did, however, get paid big bucks heading up consulting at Wharton Econometrics, where I was asked to “invent the future” for corporate strategy clients.

So, I thought I would conjure up a special set of predictions for American Greatness readers about what might be coming in 2023. You won’t get this from the three-letter government agencies who are so one-sided nowadays, or from any of our proliferating enemies or frenemies, for that matter. Continue reading

Bethel Leader Selling ‘Prophetic Leggings’ to ‘Enhance Your Awareness of God’s Prescence’

The product description for the leggings offers, “Go from yoga [no Christian should practice yoga] to dinner in our body hugging printed leggings! Compression fit performance fabric milled in Montreal,” and the prophetic meaning is “Everything miraculous. Every dream imaginable waits to be released for those who are willing to “see”. Let Heaven’s glory and mystery be unlocked within.”

(Protestia) Pastrix Theresa Dedmon teaches and leads the Kingdom Creative Movement at Bethel Church’s School of Supernatural Ministry (BSSM) in Redding, California. We wrote about her two years ago after she promoted ‘holy snoring’ as a means of God’s miraculous healing. Continue reading

False Assumptions Behind Youth Gender Transitions

“According to SEGM, studies that are cited by the transgender cult and proponents of radical leftist gender theory are extremely flawed and misleading, and unsupported by evidence. Trans-cultists often claim that brain studies show distinct differences in the brains of trans-identifying individuals—but those studies are bogus, according to SEGM.” – Matt Margolis, PJ Media

(Society for Evidence-based Gender Medicine) The highly medicalized approach to managing gender distress in youth, integral to the “gender-affirmative” care model, rests on several key assumptions. Publications promoting “gender affirmation” of youth fail to explicitly call out these assumptions—or misrepresent these problematic assumptions as proven facts. Continue reading

Pastors, Ditch the Metrosexual Persona: God Calls You to be a Faithful Shepherd and Steward of His Word

“The infamous Steven Furtick, Judah Smith, the disgraced former Hillsong pastor, Carl Lentz, and many, many more, share the same dangerous and insidious personality – one of ego, entitlement, and a thirst for power at any cost. But their egos and proclivity for self-promotion are not their only danger—these pastors also share a matching doctrine of deception and error, one that is designed to lure the unwary into their web of lies and manipulation.” 

(The Dissenter) As the shadows lengthen and the veil between worlds grows thin, a new and terrifying force has emerged from the depths of the church. It is the rise of the metrosexual pastor, a creature of preening vanity and superficiality, whose hunger for attention and adoration knows no bounds. Continue reading

Redeeming Our Time in This Evil Age

15 See therefore how carefully you walk not as unwise but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. (translated from the NA28 Greek text)

There is a great deal going on the visible church, much of it having little to do with genuine Christianity, that most of us can do little about. Yes, we can pray, which is very powerful. We can also obey God and expose the evil to other believers. However, the older I get in the faith the outrage over much of what people like Rob Bell or Rick Warren say or write I no longer allow to consume me. I know what my role is in the Truth War. Do you know what yours is? For most of us it is to obey what the Apostle Paul wrote to the Ephesian church in Ephesians 5:1-21. Continue reading

Trump’s Recent Abortion Comments Are a Teaching Moment

Baby at 15 weeks. babycenter screenshot

“When does a human life begin? The objective answer would be that life begins at the moment of conception. How do we know that? Well, because before that moment, that entirely unique set of DNA did not exist, and given the nature of DNA, it can never be replicated again.” 

(Selwyn Duke – The New American) President Donald Trump’s recent claim that the GOP’s underwhelming midterm showing wasn’t his fault, but was due to the “abortion issue,” has sparked great controversy. One commentator said Trump had poked “a hornet’s nest,” another called his comments “wise, effective, and prudent,” while yet another stated that avoiding a hypocrisy charge required that 45 take “a refresher in Anti-Abortion Apologetics 101” (and all three were at the same website on the same day!)….

The Coup We Never Knew

“We are beginning to wake up from a nightmare to a country we no longer recognize, and from a coup we never knew.”

(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) Did someone or something seize control of the United States?

What happened to the U.S. border? Where did it go? Who erased it? Why and how did 5 million people enter our country illegally? Did Congress secretly repeal our immigration laws? Did Joe Biden issue an executive order allowing foreign nationals to walk across the border and reside in the United States as they pleased? Continue reading

Biden Administration Goes All In For Abortion

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) The Biden Administration finalized a rule making permanent an abortion policy they used Branch Covidianism to implement. Under emergency authorization the abortion weapon, mifepristone, was allowed to be prescribed via telehealth services. With the emergency no longer politically expedient, the Democrat administration looks to make the temporary policy enacted in 2021 permanent. Continue reading

The State vs. Parents on the Transgender Agenda

Jude and James Younger

(Emmy Griffin – The Patriot Post) The heavily contested gender ideology is a phenomenon that has flooded the modern scene with a vengeance. The battlegrounds are varied. Some are fighting the attempted subjugation of the language. Others focus on attacking the early sexualization and indoctrination of children. Some poor parents are in the midst of custody battles for children who have been talked into buying the transgender lie. Still others want to address accommodating gender-confused individuals’ bathroom preferences. This month has already seen three different court decisions regarding gender identity/confusion and the varying issues this enabled illness presents to the culture as a whole. Continue reading

Discernment, heresy, and apostasy

 

10 Reject a factious man after a first and second warning, 11 knowing that such a man is perverted and is sinning, being self-condemned. Titus 3:10-11 (LSB) 

True Biblical discernment is crucial for the spiritual health of the Body of Christ because there has and always will be a plague of false teaching and teachers upon it until our Lord’s return. If you have ever flown on public transportation and had to go through the entire TSA screening process then you know how unpleasant that is…. Continue reading

Is Tony Evans A False Teacher? What About His Daughter Priscilla Shirer?

“One of the most common label applied to Tony Evans by online discernment ministries is Pelagian. Pelagianism is the belief that Adam’s sin did not affect future generations of humanity, a rejection of the doctrine of Original Sin/Guilt. By the textbook definition of Pelagianism, Tony Evans is not Pelagian. He has a similar but distinct heretical view we will call Dispy-Pelagianism.”

(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Tony Evans would be added to a long list of pastors who compromised in 2020 to the cult of Branch Covidianism. Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship received between $2-5 million in PPP Loans from the government in 2020. Continue reading

Idaho murder victims’ roommate heard crying, saw man in mask morning of killings: court docs

Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle, two of the murder victims.

“The bombshell revelations were revealed in a probable cause affidavit that was unsealed Thursday before Kohberger made his initial appearance in Latah County Court.”

(Fox News reporters) One of the Idaho murder victims’ surviving roommates heard crying then opened her door and saw a man wearing a black mask, according to a newly unsealed filing that paints a vivid account of the massacre.

The roommate, identified only as D.M., awoke at 4 a.m. Nov. 13 by what she thought was the sound Kaylee Goncalves playing with her dog, Murphy, on the third floor. Continue reading

Mark Driscoll Releases E-book on Sex that Describes in Graphic Detail Various Sex Acts

This is for real. The man has no shame. No sense of decency. Rom 16:17-18 certainly applies to “pastor” Driscoll.

(The Dissenter) Mark Driscoll was once a prominent figure in the religious community, known for his edgy, aggressive sermons and punk-inspired worship services. However, his penchant for inappropriate language and disturbing behavior ultimately led to his downfall. In 2014, Driscoll was embroiled in a scandal involving emotional and spiritual abuse of his followers, plagiarism, and financial misconduct. These heinous actions caused his empire to crumble, and he was forced to face the consequences of his actions. Continue reading

Shocking Brand New Research – Testosterone in Total Freefall, May Account for Explosion in Transgenderism

“Assuming that the Public Health™ authorities at the NIH or the FDA or the CDC actually concern themselves with health, the natural question arises: why are they seemingly doing nothing about this rapidly worsening problem?  Why the radio silence?”

(Ben Bartee – PJ Media) The left celebrates the trend while the right laments it, but what everyone can agree upon is that rates of transgenderism have exploded in the past decade. Continue reading
