You Did It, Charlie
“But so that it spreads no further among the people, let us severely threaten them, that from now on they speak to no man in this name.” Acts 4:17 For too long this has been the case, especially among our elected officials and political pundits. It’s OK to invoke the name of God, that can Continue reading

Nothing New Under the Sun
“That which has been is that which will be, and that which has been done is that which will be done. So there is nothing new under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9. The celebration we’re seeing in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination falls into the above category, nothing new. It has been done in the Continue reading

The Gates of Hell Will Not Prevail
Disgusted? Absolutely. Shocked? Not at all. Looking around at the sewer that goes by the name of social media, I’m disgusted by what I see following the assassination of Charlie Kirk. In fact, disgusted is not a strong enough word. We need a new word for the reaction to this level of hate and vitriol. Continue reading

Charlie Kirk, Spiritual Warrior
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the “powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12. Outside of Jesus Christ, I’ve never been so moved by the death of someone I never met. But the assassination Continue reading

The Gospel According to Man
“But if even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to (other than, more than) what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed! As we have said before, so I say again now, if any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what Continue reading

Mocking God at the Paris Olympics
“Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.” Galatians 6:7. I’m sure by now most of you have seen the photo or the video from last night’s opening ceremonies at the Paris Olympic Games. (Said photo/video won’t be posted here because I kind of like Continue reading

Getting Serious About Hell
As God allows America to slide deeper and deeper into the abyss of a Romans 1 depraved mind, something I find particularly disturbing is the flippant, irreverent way in which people regard Hell. What has reinforced this lately is a popular Tik Tok video in which a woman pleads with Christians to stop trying to Continue reading

Celebration and Euphoria at the Slaughter of Innocents
For all the useful idiots on college campuses across America, for every “protestor” in the streets of every major city around the world waving Palestinian flags and chanting “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” for Hamas sympathizers and collaborators who roam the halls of the United States Congress, for anyone and Continue reading

Standing With Israel
I am saddened by what I see happening, saddened but by no means surprised. It took less than a week from the time the sub-human animals who go under the name of Hamas stormed into villages in Israel slaughtering innocent men, women, and children, for a wave of antisemitism to sweep across this country and Continue reading

The Rapture of the Church
There is an old adage which, depending on the attribution you subscribe to, is either an ancient Chinese curse or a line from a speech by British statesman Joseph Chamberlain in the 1830’s. May you live in interesting times. Usually, the quote is used ironically with interesting referring to times of difficulty, chaos, danger, uncertainty, Continue reading

Do You Believe The Bible?
Most Christians will tell you they believe the Bible—to some extent. A Gallup survey from last year showed that 40% of those who call themselves born again or evangelical (emphasis on call themselves) believe the Bible is the literal word of God, while 51% say it’s the inspired word of God but not every word Continue reading

It’s Too Late
The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not willing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9. Despite His extraordinary patience with mankind, there comes a point with every people and nation when God’s patience runs out, when he Continue reading

Pedophiles Walking Through the Door Transgenderism Opened
“But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.” Mark 9:42. We’ve seen a flurry of what might seem to be unrelated trends. School children are being exposed to Continue reading

He Is Risen!
“But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised; and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is in vain.”1 Corinthians 15:14. The resurrection of Jesus is the centerpiece of the gospel. Christianity stands or falls based on the doctrine of the Continue reading

Why Is This Woman Smiling?
“There are six things which the Lord hates, yes seven which are an abomination to Him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that run rapidly to evil.” Proverbs 6:16-18. For those who may not live in Michigan or follow politics closely, the woman Continue reading

Declining American Values
A recent survey by the Wall Street Journal/NORC concerning what is important to Americans has some alarming numbers but considering the trajectory of our society in the last 25 years they should not be unexpected. Three particular areas, patriotism, religion, and having children are the numbers from the poll I want to focus on here. Continue reading

Our Nation’s Soul
In his proclamation of Transgender Visibility Day last week (as if trans people weren’t visible enough last week), President Joe Biden had this to say, “Transgender Americans shape our nation’s soul.” Some people said this came across as callous and tone-deaf considering the shootings at the Nashville school which happened just a few days before Continue reading

Calling Evil Good and Good Evil
“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20. On Monday, a mentally ill woman (I will not use the term transgender man) walked into a Christian school in Nashville and murdered 6 people, Continue reading

Corrupted By The Culture
God reminds us over and over in Scripture to separate ourselves from the world. In 2 Corinthians 6:17 He says, “Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord, and do not touch what is unclean.” I John 2:15 tells us, “Do not love the world nor the things in the world.” Philippians Continue reading

Michael Knowles is Right. Transgenderism Must Be Eradicated
Michael Knowles is in boiling H2O for his recent remarks on transgenderism at CPAC. Of course, the usual suspects couldn’t contain themselves. Rolling Stone and Variety immediately wrote that Knowles was calling for genocide. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre accused Knowles of “calling for the eradication of transgender people.” Media Matters called it “eliminationist, Continue reading

Rick Warren Responds to the SBC
Rick Warren has responded to last month’s decision by the Southern Baptist Convention that said Saddleback Church, the California megachurch of which Warren is the former pastor, was no longer in friendly cooperation with the Convention” for having a woman on its pastoral staff. Warren’s remarks were made on a March 8 podcast with Russell Continue reading

All Too Comfortably Numb
“So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.Having Continue reading

Pride Is Nothing To Be Proud Of
In today’s culture, pride has become something to be celebrated. This group’s pride and that group’s pride. We have an entire month dedicated to LGBTQ pride. There are parades and official proclamations promoting it as something to be admired. However, God’s Word has nothing good to say about pride. Nothing. From Deuteronomy to Isaiah to Continue reading

Submit Yourselves to the Authorities, Until…
“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right.” 1 Peter 2:13. This is God’s order for government. Punishing the evildoers and rewarding the righteous. Continue reading

Spiritual War in the Classroom
“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought Continue reading

Itching Ears
“For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.” 2 Timothy Continue reading

Women Pastors
Today I’m tackling what can be a controversial subject (although it shouldn’t be, Scripture is very clear) that’s been brought to the forefront again this week with the action taken against Saddleback Church, and four other churches, by the Southern Baptist Convention. The subject is the ordination of women as pastors. Saddleback was among five Continue reading

Information Surplus, Knowledge Deficit
Our world is awash in information. In the palm of most of our hands there is a device with access to more information than has ever been available to mankind in the combined history of the world. One estimate puts the amount of information we possess at 300 exabytes. That’s 300 followed by 15 zeroes. Continue reading

Jesus Never Said…Well, Yes He Did
See if this sounds familiar. Well, Jesus never said anything about (fill in the blank). The usual context of this statement is relating to homosexuality, but it can be applied to every other sin man tries to justify which Jesus failed to explicitly condemn during his ministry on Earth. My answer to this is simple. Continue reading

The Narrow Way
The tag line above is taken from Matthew 7:14 at the end of what is referred to as Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. The entire passage reads: “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.For the Continue reading

God Bless the Child
When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June of last year, the mask came off the so-called pro-choice crowd. The facade of safe, legal, and rare abortion that was their calling card since the days of the Clinton Administration suddenly became abortion at any point in the pregnancy, up to and including the Continue reading

Truth or Consequences
“The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the ungodliness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.” Romans 1:18 “They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator.” Romans 1:25. “Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile Continue reading
