Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”
— John 8:56
Every saint in the OT were christians who practiced Christianity in the types and shadows. Hebrews 8-11
Moses, David, Noah, Abraham, and the prophets weren’t Christians. They lived under the Old Covenant centuries before Christ. The term “Christian” first appears in Acts 11, after Christ already ascended into heaven. Christianity doesn’t reject Judaism; it fulfills God’s promises to Israel through Israel’s Messiah. Jesus was Jewish. The apostles were Jewish. Paul explicitly warns Gentile Christians not to boast over Israel because we’re grafted into her covenant tree (Romans 11). As Jesus Himself said, “Salvation is from the Jews” (John 4:22).
This is what happens when you surround yourself with antisemites and let your theology be shaped by X instead of Scripture.
I wrote this song in thanks to God for my ancestral homeland.
It is a tremendous gift, and one worth fighting for.
May our affection for our home on earth train us for the far greater gift of our eternal home. 🇺🇸✝️

Please stop sending out the religious boss-babe prototypes to tell us that criticizing people they like puts our souls at risk.
It’s biblically unserious, spiritually manipulative, theologically offensive, and blasphemous.
This is why God forbids them from speaking in church.
Men pay no mind to this effeminate.
Jesus flipped tables when God was dishonored.
Jesus whipped the evil, and made no room for them.
The Apostles followed suit: they were wise as serpents and gentle as doves.
They forgave their enemies, but they did not give them license, they called out the sins in their churches and were hated.
Be like St. Paul that Called out Peter's Sin, and wrote about it.
WWUTT is from a generation that mixes niceness with passivity, and license.
That is their generation's Sin, you don't have to repeat it.
Look at the men of Old:
Look at how Charles Spurgeon was treated, and called out for not being agreeable.
Look at Chesterton called unloving for calling out effeminacy within society.
These people are confused, they don't know what masculinity is. They have grown fat because of their comfort.
You know what it is like to be under their leadership, constantly listening to women's sins being excused, and you being hit over the head and told you're not good enough.
Don't let that anger make you hate these men, instead resolve to not be weak like them.
Don't let your anger lead to Hating women, Resolve to lead them by confronting their sin in the pulpit, and in church, but not to crush them but to help them lead a pure life.
But most of all hate your indwelling sin, theirs is effeminacy, yours will be anger. hate that sin, and be the backbone that these men never were.
Reject the red-pill, because they have no grace. Reject these men because they have no spine.
God bless you on this Sunday.
I was molested as a kid. Locked in closets. Hit. Beaten.
I've told you about it. I've written about it. I've used it to build a platform.
And I need to be honest about something.
We've built a church culture that celebrates the pit more than the God who made the pit unnecessary.
A man went viral this week for telling 4.3 million people his wife used to sleep around. The internet called it a testimony. The replies said "this is what testimonies are for."
And I thought, when did the exception become the model?
The worse your past, the bigger your platform. The darker the sin, the louder the applause. The further you fell, the more followers you get when you stand back up.
But the kid who grew up in a godly home and never left? The woman who kept her virginity? The man who showed up to church every Sunday for forty years and never made a headline?
Nobody claps for them.
Nobody shares their story. Nobody goes viral for faithfulness.
I know because I'm the exception. My story is the gutter. And the gutter gets engagement.
But the angels in Isaiah 6 don't cry "Redeemed, redeemed, redeemed."
They cry "Holy, holy, holy."
The highest worship in heaven isn't about what God pulled us out of. It's about what God IS.
We magnify the mud. We barely glance at the mountain.
If you grew up faithful and nobody ever clapped, you're not boring. You're the model.
The exception gets the microphone. The faithful get Hebrews 11: "God is not ashamed to be called their God."
Stop apologizing for not having a pit to climb out of.
And for those of us who do, the testimony isn't the trauma.
The testimony is the God who showed up in it.
Magnify Him. Not the mud.
If I were a young, unmarried, American Christian man on here…(without having the context I personally have about debates, etc)…
I’d probably reasonably assume that *many* (not all) so-called conservative commentators/pastors who post on here hate me and want the worst for me
