28 After this, Jesus having known everything that had been completed that the Scripture may be fulfilled, said, “I thirst.” 29 A jar full of vinegar was there, so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on a hyssop branch and put it to his mouth. 30 Therefore, when he received the vinegar, Jesus said, “It is finished.” And having bowed his head, he gave up his Spirit. John 19:28-30 (translated from the NA28 Greek text)
Many of those with whom we earnestly contend for the faith have a problem with the absolute truth that is presented to us in the three verses above. Many of them may deny the fact that they hold to a form of salvation that denies the sufficiency of the atoning work of Christ on the cross to accomplish all that is required for all of the elect to not only believe the gospel, but also to persevere….

(Debra Heine – American Greatness) A White House Christmas video showcasing a bizarro tap dance performance of the Nutcracker Suite is being roasted online and compared to the Hunger Games. The video features a woke, “antiracist” New York City tap company tapping their way down a White House hallway adorned in Nutcracker-themed décor. Jill Biden posted the performance on X, Wednesday.
“The students who are most passionate about hating Israel know the least about the conflict because they are suffering from a social contagion, not acting upon a reasoned conclusion. Those who actually study the issue, if they do so thoroughly and honestly, will come out supporting Israel. Our nation’s colleges and universities are doing their level best to prevent that outcome.
(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.
Michael Cassidy, a Christian and former military officer, pushed over and decapitated the statue before he discarded the head in a trash can.
“Trying to soft-pedal the rash of robberies by portraying them as normal is ludicrous.”
Nihilism: the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.
(The Dissenter) Weird stuff. It just keeps getting weirder. Yesterday, 
“In his inaugural 30-second TCN ad, Tucker unleashed a tsunami of liberal tears. In that brief half-minute, he fearlessly exposed the major lies told by our disgraced elites—from the phony vaccine to the “peaceful” Summer of Love to the absurd Russia narratives….”
“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.”
“Jesus did not come to promote a revolt against societal norms but to offer a radical transformation of the heart, one that transcends social and political structures and exposes the deadening rot within our very being.”
“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.”
“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…”
“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.”
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.
A visit to his website shows that it’s been rebranded as the Tucker Carlson Network. The website describes it as “the new streaming platform that is home to exclusive all-new content from Tucker Carlson. We will regularly be releasing new video content that tells the stories that matter and helps you make sense of the world around you.”
“When degendering marriage through the legalization of same-sex marriage was being proposed by activists decades ago, those who opposed it were regularly told to settle down because the change would never impact them. It was a merely a private matter between two people. “How will my private same-sex marriage ever harm you?” we were repeatedly told. That was wholly disingenuous.” 
“The lawsuit contends that F—b–k and I——-m are a “breeding ground” in which predators can target children for sexual abuse of various types.” 
(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.
“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.” 
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)
