Scott Adams announces he intends to convert to Christianity in response to his friends witnessing to him.

@ScottAdamsSays “I've not been a believer, but I also have respect for any Christian who goes out of their way to try to convert me, because how would I believe you believe your own religion if you're not trying to convert me?

So I have great respect for people who care enough that they want me to convert and then go out of their way to try to convince me.

So you're going to hear for the first time today that it is my plan to convert.

I still have time, but my understanding is you're never too late.”

Please pray that Scott will accept Christ before it’s eternally too late!

I went back to Luke this morning just to revisit the story of Christmas… and Luke 2:7 hit me like an arrow to the chest:

“She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in cloths and laid him in a manger because there was no room for them in the inn.”

We romanticize that line so much that we forget how brutal it actually is. If the gospel narrative is true, then that’s not a cute nativity detail. That is the most explosive statement in human history.

The God who created galaxies entered His own creation… and there was no room for Him.

No royal welcome, no palace, no safety, no honor, not even a bed. He comes into the world He made, and the doors are closed in His face.

This is the single greatest scandal of Christianity: God doesn’t supervise salvation from a throne. He steps into it. He doesn’t arrive in glory. He arrives vulnerable. He doesn’t come intimidating humanity into submission. He comes as a child who can’t even hold His own head up. If you were inventing a religion, this is not the story you’d write.

Luke is quietly showing something staggering about God’s character:
He wins, not by force, but by love.
He saves, not by domination, but by self-giving. He comes close, not as a King demanding space, but as a Savior entering even when there is “no room.”

And that manger isn’t sentimental. It’s confrontational.

It confronts our pride, cos humanity has always had space for power, wealth, celebrity, and status… just never space for God unless He serves our plans.

It confronts our illusions of strength cos God is showing that real power isn’t the ability to crush. Real power is the courage to empty yourself for the sake of others.

It confronts religion, cos God bypassed temples and elites and arrived where animals feed… then announced His coming not to emperors, but to shepherds.

Luke 2:7 tells us who God is.

He is not distant, He is not indifferent, He is not cold sovereignty. He is the God who chooses weakness so He can stand with the weak. He is the God who walks into human pain instead of observing it from afar. He is the God who would rather be rejected with us than reign without us.

If this verse is true, Christianity isn’t just another belief system. It’s a radical claim that the deepest power in the universe is love; not might, not fear, not spectacle.

So yes… this verse broke me today.
Because if this is who God is… then hope isn’t sentimental. Grace isn’t theoretical. And Christmas isn’t “cute.”

It’s God stepping into history quietly…
exposing us gently… and saving us completely. Luke 2:7 isn’t a children’s story. It’s a revolution.

Merry Christmas 🎄❤️

Heartbreaking 💔

Del Bigtree -

Docs don’t know or tell you the ingredients in a vaccine -formaldehyde, aluminum, aborted foetal cells etc

But in a restaurant they can list off every allergen to save your kid.

Parents spend hours researching every other aspect of their child’s lives but hand over their kids for 72 vaccines without looking at the inserts.

Sage Steele tears up -

‘I’m so mad.. I feel like an idiot…. I just said yes to HPV vaccines 10 years ago with my kids .. and they lied.’

This is the moment millions of parents will go through when the truth comes out!!

[PaulsCorner-VerseQuest @TNTJohn1717]

🚨‼️When you open a Bible and read that the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men in Genesis six and two, you are not reading poetry. You are reading history that the modern church is too scared to preach. Those angels were not playing harps and floating on clouds. They were rebels who walked into the human world like they owned it. They traded the glory of heaven for the lust of the flesh, and the result was a catastrophe that filled the earth with violence in Genesis six and eleven. You cannot understand the ancient world without understanding that supernatural intrusion. The world was not ruined by evolution or cavemen. It was ruined by heavenly beings who stepped out of bounds.

People want to know why the ancient monuments look more advanced than the civilizations that supposedly built them. They want to know why every culture has stories of gods who came down, taught forbidden knowledge, and produced giants. They want to know why the oldest structures look like they were engineered by someone who knew more than human beings should. The Bible already gave the answer. The watchers brought knowledge humanity was never meant to handle. They taught sorcery and weaponry. They tampered with creation. They reshaped the world according to their rebellion. That is why the planet looks like the remains of a spiritual war zone.

The church avoids this subject because it exposes the reality of the supernatural. It is much easier to preach safe devotionals than to admit that the powers of darkness once walked among men and will walk again. Yet Jesus warned that the last days would mirror the days of Noah in Matthew twenty four and thirty seven. You cannot mirror the days of Noah without the same spiritual activity that defined those days. The watchers were judged and bound, but their influence continues through the spirits of the giants and through the powers that Paul described as rulers of the darkness of this world in Ephesians six and twelve. We are not dealing with harmless ghosts. We are dealing with the leftovers of the greatest rebellion the earth has ever seen.

The truth is simple. The watchers descended. Humanity received their corruption. God judged the world. The corruption resurfaced after the Flood. The watchers will resurface again in prophecy. And Christ will destroy every one of them at His coming. The world is quick to praise ancient gods and forget the God who judged them. But the watchers rebellion is not a legend. It is the reason the world fell apart and the reason the King is coming back to fix it. You either believe the Bible or you believe the fairy tales the world invented to hide the truth. The watchers walked once. They will walk again. Christ will end it.

If your wife was seeing the person you hated most.
Refused to talk about it until after Thanksgiving “for the kids”
Then said she was leaving you for him but acted like she should get 2 stay through Christmas.
Would you let her?

Because apparently Saban & @KirkHerbstreit would.

Wise words

“My name’s Frank. I’m 64, a retired electrician.
Forty-two years I spent running wires through houses, fixing breakers, making sure people had light in their kitchens and heat in their winters. Never once did anyone ask me where I went to college. Mostly, they just wanted to know if I could get the power back on before their ice cream melted.

Last May, I was at my granddaughter Emily’s school career day. You know the drill — doctors, lawyers, a software guy in a slick suit talking about “scaling startups.” I was the only one there with a tool belt and work boots.

When it was my turn, I told the kids, “I don’t have a degree. I’ve never sat in a lecture hall. But I’ve wired schools, hospitals, and your principal’s house. And when the hospital generator failed during a snowstorm in ’98, I was the one in the basement with a flashlight, keeping the lights on for newborn babies upstairs.”

The kids leaned forward. They had questions — real ones. “How do you fix stuff in the dark?” “Do you make a lot of money?” “Do you ever get zapped?” (Yes, once, and it’ll curl your hair.)

When the bell rang, one boy hung back. Small kid, freckles, hoodie too big for him. He mumbled, “My uncle’s a plumber. People laugh at him ’cause he didn’t finish high school. But… he’s the only one in the family who can fix anything.”

I looked that boy in the eye and said, “Kid, your uncle’s a hero. When your toilet overflows at midnight, Harvard ain’t sending anyone. A plumber is.”

Here’s the thing nobody told me when I was young — the world doesn’t run without tradespeople. You can have all the engineers you want, but if nobody builds the house, wires the power, or lays the pipes, those blueprints just sit in a drawer.

We’ve made it sound like trades are what you do if you can’t go to college, instead of a path you choose because you like working with your hands, solving problems, and seeing your work stand solid for decades.

Four years after high school, some kids walk away with diplomas. Others walk away with zero debt, a union card, and a skill they can take anywhere in the world. And guess what? When your furnace dies in January, it’s not the diploma that saves you.

A few weeks ago, that same freckled kid’s mom stopped me at the grocery store. She said, “You probably don’t remember, but you told my son trades are important. He’s shadowing his uncle this summer. First time I’ve seen him excited about anything in years.”

That’s the part we forget — for some kids, knowing their path is respected changes everything. It’s not about “just” fixing wires or pipes. It’s about pride. Purpose. The kind that sticks with you long after the job’s done.

So next time you meet a teenager, don’t just ask, “Where are you going to college?” Ask, “What’s your plan?” And if they say, “I’m learning to weld,” or “I’m starting an apprenticeship,” smile big and say, “That’s fantastic. We’re going to need you.”

Because we will. More than ever. And when the lights go out, you’ll be glad they showed up.”

[Clint Russell @LibertyLockPod]

It's just my Dad and I in the hospital tonight. I'm gonna tell you what this is like because no one ever told me and I wish they had. It could be hours or it could be days but he is dying. I read this short book called "Gone From My Sight" which lays out step by step every aspect of the dying process. It gave me great comfort.

This is natural. In some ways, it is as beautiful as childbirth. That's not what the book said. Just the overwhelming emotion I was left with.

He stopped eating almost entirely about a month ago and stopped speaking 4 days ago. I am very fortunate and grateful that he and I had a tear-filled conversation on the last day he will ever speak. It was so beautiful I don't even have words for it. He had withdrawn from me two months ago but that is exactly what dying people do. I just didn't know and I doubt he did either.

His eyelids remain slightly open and you can see him looking around as if in a dream state. To me, he is likely reliving fond memories and reconciling any items left undone. He moves when I speak to him but I believe it's just the familiar voice of a loved one that causes him to stir. He is not truly present. A few toes left on earth and the rest of him lifting away from me towards his next chapter.

He is not gone. He will not be gone. He will just be gone from my sight.

If anyone had told me that the week my Dad died would be one of the best of my life I would've thought they were crazy or sociopathic. But that's what this has been.

I've never felt closer to him. I have never felt closer to God. To hold his hand as he dies is life come full circle. He was the first to hold my hand and I will be the last to hold his.

I have done my duty as his Son and he did a great job as my father.

Don't get me wrong. It hurts. Terribly. But only because the bond runs so deep.

I love you Dad. It's OK for you to go.

A MUST WATCH!

Aaron Siri just revealed that a vaccinated vs. unvaccinated study from Henry Ford Medical Center was buried because it showed unvaccinated children were healthier.

“Del Bigtree and I met with Dr. Marcus Zervos, head of infectious disease at Henry Ford Medical Center.”

“He was pro-vaccine, running clinical trials.”

“We argued this was the chance to shut the anti-vaxxers up about their claim that unvaccinated children are healthier.”

“To our surprise, he agreed to conduct the study.”

“Dr. Zervos recruited a chief epidemiologist and two statisticians. These were mainstream scientists with orthodox views about vaccines.”

“The study compared children enrolled at Henry Ford from 2000 to 2016 from birth onward — unvaccinated children versus those who received one or more vaccines.”

“It was based on actual medical records.”

“Vaccinated children had 4.29x the rate of asthma, 3.03x the rate of atopic disease, 5.96x the rate of autoimmune disease, 5.53x the rate of neurodevelopmental disorders, including 3.28x developmental delay and 4.47x speech disorder.”

“ADHD: 262 cases in the vaccinated group. Zero in the unvaccinated group.”

“All of these findings were statistically significant.”

“After 10 years, 57% of vaccinated children had a chronic health issue — often multiple, only 17% of unvaccinated children did.”

“Had it found vaccinated kids were healthier, it would have been published immediately. Because it found the opposite, it was shoved in a drawer.”

“The findings didn’t fit the policy that vaccines are safe.”

“We urged the researchers to submit it. They admitted the study was well-designed and conducted. But Dr. Zervos said he didn’t want to lose his job. Another said she didn’t want to make doctors uncomfortable.”

“This is a real-world example of how the science around vaccines gets corrupted — how only studies that confirm the belief that vaccines are safe get published. Everything else gets shoved in a drawer.”
