Congressman Robert B. Aderholt announced the Protect Funding for Women’s Health Care Act in the House of Representatives.

The proposed legislation aims to prevent federal taxpayer dollars from being used to fund Planned Parenthood and its affiliates.

President Trump’s pledge to upend the federal workforce began rippling through Washington after he moved to force government employees back to the office and weakened their job protections https://t.co/MtUrQkdjp9

Mel Gibson exposes how human sacrifice is plaguing America on the Joe Rogan podcast, ultimately leading to cultural collapse.

“What leads to cultural collapse? Human sacrifice.”

“We do that. We do.”

We sacrifice baby humans every day by aborting them.

Children are fruit (Psa 128:3), but the Bible more frequently characterizes them as "seed." They're not to be consumed, but planted, watered, nurtured to maturity.

At which point, they produce seed of their own and begin a new cycle.

“@GovernorKayIvey rejected DEI, stood up for common sense, and protected our institutions from radical ideology. Thank Governor Ivey for rejecting DEI and keeping Alabama free,” a new ad campaign hitting airwaves today says. #alpolitics

Priests couldn't drink wine in the tabernacle or temple, and no one else drank because no one else entered (Lev 10).

Every time we see wine on the Lord's table, we know we're in a new and better covenant, a covenant of joy and matured, aged wine.

Harris rolls out economic plan.

Then, campaign surrogates go on tv to tell people not to worry, she wont actually go through with it.

President Trump thinks he needs to moderate on abortion to win the election. He’s probably right.

Most Americans want abortion. As Rod Dreher says, with the Dobbs decision Christians won a legal battle but we’ve lost the culture war.

There’s still a pragmatic argument for Trump. He wasn’t a social conservative in 2016 and he’s not now.

But at least he’ll address other problems – unrestrained immigration, spending and inflation, wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, censorship.

That’s plausible, but superficial. “Social” concerns like abortion and homosexuality aren’t tangential to other issues. They’re fundamental causes of all our political crises.

The living God is active among nations. He blesses and curses as nations honor or defy His Son, His Word, and His Bride.

When Israel broke covenant, Yahweh impoverished them, subjected them to aliens (Deut 28:43-44), and surrounded them with the foreign voices of invaders (Deut 28:49).

Yahweh rains down these curses because Israel pursues idols, commits fraud, sheds innocent blood, and indulges sexual immorality (Isa 57:7-8; Jer 22:1-3), which sicken the land until it vomits Israel into exile.

Let’s say the US is being invaded. Let’s agree we're less dominant than we used to. We’re drowning in debt.

Why are these things happening? As with Israel, they’re judgments on our bloodlust, sexual libertinism, greed, and idolatry.

If that’s true, we can’t fix immigration by plugging the border. As long as we keep murdering innocents, a wall isn’t going to stop the Avenger.

We won’t be head among nations unless we repent of our sexual perversions and demolish our idols, including Mammon.

Voting for a temporary fix makes tactical sense. But we shouldn’t be fooled: A President who accommodates our culture of death and prideful desire is papering over our basic problem, which is that our sins are a stench in God’s nostrils.

How do you know God loves you?

Don’t stare inward, into the abyss. Turn to Jesus, which is to say, turn to Him as He offers Himself at His table.

It’s visible, in front of you every Lord’s day. You can taste the bread and smell the wine. It's the table of Jesus, the table of the Father’s love. And you are here.

The Father claimed you in baptism: This one is Mine! Every week, He feeds you.

What more can He do than what He has done? What more can He say than what He’s said? Trust Him, taste Him; relax, rejoice.
