This is a great video by @MikeWingerii.
Many people who don’t know my story think I grew up in the church. I actually grew up in an Atheist home and I was told not to question science or the belief that there is no God. I had many questions and I was encouraged not to ask them.
That doesn’t sound like critical thinking or free thinking.
Search for the truth yourself to be sure of what you believe. That’s why I encourage Christians to know what you believe and why you believe it.
Rape gangs are not some kind of aberration. Ask any combat veteran what they saw in Afghanistan. The sexual torture and slavery of children is utterly commonplace in Muslim countries. It’s part of their “culture.” Which is why it’s suicidal to import that culture into the west.
Jamie is a faithful, diligent pastor in Northern Ireland and a great follow for those who want a grounded Christian perspective of what is happening there.
@JohnCleese Because there are no moderate Muslims. There are only Muslims who don’t practice or understand their religion very well. If you read their sacred texts, the guys who are cutting off heads are the guys who are doing Islam as it’s supposed to be done according to their book.
Along with the ongoing work of the Great Commission and evangelizing the nations, some momentum to celebrate in the SBC.
1. Back-to-back presidential elections resulted in strong leadership that repudiated the transformational efforts of poor and subversive leadership that came before them.
2. The ERLC has cut ties with the Soros-funded open-borders org, the Evangelical Immigration Table. And the soft progressive leadership of Brent Leatherwood (aka Russell Moore 2.0) was ended.
3. The ERLC also pledged to stop taking grants from other secular- left NGOs, like Buddhist Pierre Omidyar’s Democracy Fund.
4. The false narrative that there was an abuse crisis in the SBC or that any national leaders tried to cover up abuse has been fully repudiated. Both presidential candidates acknowledged that we do not have an abuse crisis. Efforts to dismantle the conservative resurgence through this issue appear to have been roundly defeated, praise God.
These are very good foundations to build from. And after a season of much needed confrontation, I am hopeful that we are now entering a season of reform and rebuilding.
Sola Deo Gloria.
Wow! John MacArthur has given us many eye-opening expository sermons. I would say this is the most eye-opening myth busting sermon I have ever heard from him.
That feeling when you hear kids being taught to give their all like the widow who gave her last two mites and then went home to die, but John MacArthur blew your mind on the passage’s actual meaning years ago… 😬
"The Lord makes no comment about giving except that she gave more than everybody else relative to what she had. She is not commended. They are not condemned.
No one's attitude or spirit in the giving is discussed. And no principle regarding giving is drawn by our Lord. The narrative is not intended to deal with any of those matters.
The reason the Lord doesn't say anything about it is that's not what it's about. And if you look at the context before and after, this is all about the condemnation of wicked spiritual leaders and a corrupt religious system that is about to be destroyed...
How would you feel if you saw a destitute widow who only had two coins left to buy her food for her next meal give those two coins to a religious system? How would you feel?
You would say, 'Something is wrong with that system when that system takes the last two coins out of a widow's hand.' That's what you would say and you would be right to say that. Giving your last two coins to a false religious system!
How would you feel if you saw a destitute, impoverished person give to her religion her last hope for life to go home perhaps and die? You'd be sick. You'd feel terrible. You would be repulsed.
Any religion that is built on the back of the poor is a false religion. What a sad, misguided, woeful, poor victimized lady. It's tragic, painful.
And I think that's exactly how Jesus saw it, exactly. He saw that corrupt system taking the last two pennies out of a widow's pocket."

We all accept that John Thune is a Trojan Horse for the Uniparty. What is most discouraging is the utter contempt the Republicans have for their 77,000,000 supporters who voted for President Trump’s agenda. Not even five Senators will honor the will of their own people.

Evolutionary End Products Have No Rights
“We are endowed with our rights by a Creator. If no Creator, then no rights. Put another way, Darwin hates you” (Mere Christendom, p. 147).
How do I know we're winning on opposing Pride month? One example--Target has not carried any Pride merchandise for children since 2024. And their overall Pride offering this year is MUCH smaller.
Walmart also quit carrying Pride merchandise for kids in their stores in 2024 too.
It is time to press the advantage and fight Pride everywhere you find it until every company, sports team, and organization gets the message. We aren't tolerating this anymore. The LGBTQ movement abused their toleration privileges and it is over.
It's time to get back to being a healthy society that stigmatizes that which should be stigmatized.
No consistent Christian should have any problem whatever with the blackness of Anthony Bradley's skin. There does seem to be some problem, however, with the thinness of it.
@toddstarnes Funny Martina you’ll perform for a president who used a female intern for his own personal humidor but not one who’s trying to stop fraud, lower crime, and clean up Washington DC.
