Zohran Mamdani says America should look into Islam and follow the example of “Prophet Muhammad” on migration.

Fun fact: After conquering Mecca, Muhammad deported all the Christians and Jews and banned them from entering the city ever again.

To this day, non-Muslims are prohibited from entering Mecca because they’re considered dirty and impure.

Does Mamdani want to turn New York into an all-Islamic state like his prophet did in Mecca?

You've been watching the Iran story wrong. It's not about tankers or negotiations.

It's about a system Kissinger built in 1976 — and someone just indicted him for it at Chatham House. @sjkokinda names the names.

// Charles Spurgeon vs Karl Marx //

As socialism (aka "collectivism") gains steam in our nation, here's a lesser-known story about Charles Spurgeon...

Karl Marx moved to London during the height of Spurgeon's ministry and his followers started advocating for "Democratic Socialism."

Spurgeon recognized this as evil and confronted it in his preaching, saying this like this in a sermon on Isaiah 66...

"For many a year, by the grand old truths of the gospel, sinners were converted, and saints were edified, and the world was made to know that there is a God in Israel. But these are too antiquated for the present cultured race of superior beings! They are going to regenerate the world by Democratic Socialism, and set up a kingdom for Christ without the new birth or the pardon of sin. Truly the Lord has not taken away the seven thousand that have not bowed the knee to Baal
...
The latter-day gospel is not the gospel by which we were saved. To me it seems a tangle of ever-changing dreams. It is, by the confession of its inventors, the outcome of the period-the monstrous birth of a boasted "progress" —the scum from the cauldron of conceit. It has not been given by the infallible revelation of God—it does not pretend to have been. It is not divine—it has no inspired Scripture at its back.

It is, when it touches the Cross, an enemy! When it speaks of Him who died thereon, it is a deceitful friend. Many are its sneers at the truth of substitution - it is irate at the mention of the precious blood.

Many a pulpit, where Christ was once lifted high in all the glory of His atoning death, is now profaned by those who laugh at justification by faith. In fact, men are not now to be saved by faith but by doubt. Those who love the Church of God feel heavy at heart because the teachers of the people cause them to err. Even from a national point of view, men of foresight see cause for grave concern."

INTERESTINGLY, Marx lived in Paris, Berlin, Cologne, Brussels, and London.

All developed significant Communist movements, except one: London.

Why?

In part, because a significant pulpit was willing to confront it. Unleash the pulpits.

Following Jesus isn’t about willpower.
It is about community.
No one follows alone.
We aren’t designed that way.

[James Brummett @JamesBrummett]

Just a thought....

[James Brummett @JamesBrummett]

This hour+ conversation is important. You don't have to agree, but it is worth a listen. Christians need to start thinking through these issues.

White Men are the only group in NYC that didn’t vote for Zohran Mamdani…

Literally White Men vs everyone else.

The radicalization of American women is going to impact our politics for a while.

@JoshDaws @howertonjosh See my DM.
The cost is real.
Some churches and pastors
have not recovered.
Faithfulness is not always
rewarded in growth and numbers.

[Amy Hall @amy_k_hall]

This has been a terrible, terrible couple of weeks. So many tragedies, public and personal. The knowledge that God is working purposely through each one for his glory and our good is my lifeline.

The world doesn’t need more impressive sermons—it needs disciple-making churches.
