What's wrong with this testimony? "I want to be justified, but not sanctified. I want to be forgiven, but not cleansed from my sin. I want to be dead in my sins, but still forgiven of sins. I want to be free to sin, but not free from sin. . . ." Salvation does bring new life, and forgiveness is always attended by the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit. The subject can be controversial and a bit complicated in places. But here Dr. Joel Beeke, President of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, l...

The Circuit Courts are battling it out, but finally the Democrat-appointed justices are still winning out in terms of sheer numbers. Two moderates on the US Supreme Court have been tipping private property rights the wrong direction. Christians need to hold consistently to free speech AND private property rights, but what does this look like? Suppose a 501 c(3) pro-life organization or a pro-life plumber hires somebody who spends his Saturdays campaigning for Joe Biden. They fire that person, an...

Designer babies. Gene editing. Automated abortions at the push of a button. Mechanical wombs for hire. The pieces are already in place for baby farms. The modern world has depersonalized, dehumanized, and de-relationalized at every stage of human life. We give multiple examples of this, but the final step is the mechanical womb. Researchers say it's about 10 years out now. It is the abolition of man, and Christians are the only ones on planet Earth who have what it takes to restore relationship ...

There are 10 million missing men in the workforce. . . . Total employment numbers have slipped another 400,000 workers just since 2019, with another 10 million population to feed. There's less people doing the work, and the average productivity of workers have slipped since 2020. Getting back to the fundamentals, what is it that makes for strong economies according to a biblical view of economics?

Why are our governments rejecting the death penalty for murder and embracing the soft-on-crime worldview—while at the same time increasing the purview and power of government? Why does George Soros fund the Soft-on-Crime District Attorneys in major cities around the country? There is the worldview that is soft on criminals and hard on everybody else, and then there is the worldview that is hard on criminals and soft on everybody else. We analyze the Karl Popper/George Soros worldview, and find a...

As far as a family legacy goes, we want to leave a spiritual heritage to our children and our children's children. That is the most important, but how do we communicate that?

We take a quick look at Kanye West, Alex Jones, and Donald Trump, but move on to important lessons from the Proverbs. As Kipling would put it, we limp up to explain it once more . . . Here's the tale of two girls and a guy. These were just kids, super self-confident kids who were able to dupe millions of people, including some of the most respected cabinet officials of the most powerful nation on Earth. Have we become a nation of dupes? We don't recognize character anymore. We don't recognize he...

Christian restaurants would probably provide food for Muslim groups, or liberal groups, but here’s a restaurant in Richmond, Virginia, that refused service to a Christian group. While Christians are gracious at many levels, still we wonder if Christian catering businesses would cater nudist camps. Why are Christians most likely to be discriminated against in this society?

Christians actually won significant court battles in 1987 when it came to taking moral stands. We tell the story of Dr. Greg Bahnsen and the court battles fought by a Mrs. Smith. Now they lose. The National Association of Evangelicals and the CCCU is on the wrong side on HR8404 and the persecution of Christians. The PCA moved to the right side of this (leaving the NAE) in June, but not so the Vineyard, the CRC, the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, the Assemblies of God, the Christian Missionary ...

Reviewing the numbers, public school student population up 7.6%, teacher population up 8.7%, and administration up 87.6% since the year 2000? Social engineering is in full gear now. Schools, doll companies, and Disney are all on board with the program. But what's really interesting is the scene playing out in Dearborn, Michigan. The decrepit old Western civilization is dying, while the Muslim population is up in arms with the sexual and social burn out. Tyranny is on the rise, but so is the suic...

Is there a rash of sexual sin rising up in your church community? Here we ask the tough questions of Pastor Heath Lambert, author of "Finally Free." What is the difference between struggling, being in the battle, giving up, and gaining victory? How do we cultivate a culture of walking in the light, hearing confessions, encouraging repentance and faith, and yet not pampering sin? Once young men in the church start to open up to confession, and they fall again, and again, and again, how do pastors...

For two and half hours yesterday, December 5th, the Supreme Court heard a major religious liberty case . Guest host Adam McManus interviewed Matt Sharp , Senior Counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, about the right of Lorie Smith , the Christian owner of 303 Creative , a Denver, Colorado website design company, to refuse to create websites for homosexual faux weddings. Colorado’s law would force Lorie to use her artistic web design skills to speak messages celebrating homosexual faux weddings i...

Seventy-one percent of Americans say they support "Gay Mirage," but is that really so? The vast majority still reprobate unfaithfulness in marriage, but they don't seem to care about what homosexuals do in their "commitments." So what gives? We explore the reasons why this moral travesty has steamrolled the American landscape. Yet, these things come and go. We compare Sati and Eugenics to the current sexual perversion rage. Here we examine the Libertarian ethic allowing consenting adults to do w...

We hit some of the sudden death reporting, death data post Covid-Vaccine release, and V-safe data, and ask the questions. Where are the more honest investigations into the tough questions? Where are the studies with decent sample sizes, looking at blood clotting (types and frequencies)? Who do you trust? Here's our basic premise: Science based on both humanist hubris and big government bias is not to be trusted. The bigger concern is the ready submission to tyranny. It appears the push back agai...

Jesus said that offenses must necessarily come, but woe to him by whom they will come. We name names on this edition of the program—names by whom offenses come. The misnamed "Respect for Marriage Act," codifying the faux-marriage of men with men who "dishonor their bodies among themselves, was approved by the US Senate Monday and Wednesday nights, thanks to the support of twelve Republican Senators. Other significant decisions that brought great destruction upon whole nations are listed here, an...

Here are the absolutely indispensable qualities of a shepherd in home and church. Vicious wolves are always out to destroy the flock. How do we discern them, remain watchful, and take them down? There is a crying need in the church for shepherds who are willing to lay down their lives for the flock. Where will we find them? Join in with the lively discussion between Kevin Swanson and Alexander Strauch on a vital subject today.

The modern trend is a first in the history of mankind—the codifying of sodomite marriages in the US with the passage of the Disrespect for Marriage Act in the US Senate last night. We look at the actual homophobia that characterizes most Christian leaders, who are deathly afraid of offending homosexual activists by speaking truth. Here are more indications of the Death of the West. Meanwhile, world population and power is shifting south and east. Since the world is approaching the major crisis p...

The fruits of humanism and the hubris of modern humanist science is now becoming evident in the wreckage left in the wake of a certain Dr. Fauci. Here we follow Anthony Fauci's career from the 1970s, and the concomitant increase of the Big Pharma from $1 billion to $550 billion a year, thanks to government handouts and favors. Parallels to another Dr. Faust appear.

We come back to a 2022 elections review. First the good news - education freedom won in 2020 and 2022 both. But then, the question is whether the Republican Party needs to bend more towards Donald Trump and Populism, or Rob Portman and pro-homosexual centrism. How about neither? For Christians, once more Kevin Swanson recommends a return to principle, not paranoia, pragmatism, or populism.

With the emphasis on the softness of Jesus, has the modern church lost the power of Jesus, the courage of Jesus, and the manliness of Christ? Today’s Christianity is fixated on emotionalism, pageantry, and a softly-lit worship experience aimed to make you sway your hips for Jesus. The church, in a very real way, has become effeminate and delicate. What about the manliness of the church? Do we need a return to Biblical masculinity and femininity both?

While the Baby Boomers are retired and hitting the golf course, the Gen Z generation can’t get a job, and they’re living in their parents’ basement. How is this going to work out? Boomers are ten-times richer than the Millennials, and the worker-to-retiree ratio will be one third of what it was fifty years ago, ten years from now. And, at least 54 percent of adults aged 18–25 are opting to live with their parents out of economic necessity. How is this going to work out? Here is Kevin Swanson’s a...

The Gay Borg has virtually taken over the corporate world now. The HRC report 2022 indicated 99.7% of Fortune 500 companies have pro-LGBT policies . . . up from 5% in 2001. Major Christian ministries have been censored, cancelled, or deplatformed by the dozens, and thousands more of the little guys received the same treatment. Yet still, they shall soon be cut down like the grass and wither as the green herb. Nothing withers faster than big social media outlets.

Churches love distinctives—things that make them distinct (and look like they are better than) other churches. Distinctives are fine. The trouble comes in when the distinctive becomes the major to the surrender of the other majors—when we lose the camels in the gnats. We get into Bible translations from the Septuagint to the Vulgate to the King James Version, and all the others. We love the KJV, but people can go to hell clinging to their KJV and not really believing what’s in it. We end with th...

Is "The Chosen" finally bringing Christians, Mormons, and Catholics together in ecumenical unity? Who is this Jesus presented in the TV series? Is this a Jesus like the rest of us, the latter-day saints Jesus, or the least common denominator (LCD) Jesus? Or, is this the Creator of the Universe, God incarnate, and the Judge of the World? We revisit the outrageously popular "The Chosen" TV series, finding snippets of the Book of Mormon, the book of humanist trite phrases, and odd twists on Scriptu...

Since 1970, gambling has increased from $2 billion to $120 billion a year. But that's nothing compared to the mad rush into world debt and derivatives (and other horrendously reckless forms of greed). All that debt and derivative risk has increased from $15 trillion to $2,500 trillion in the last forty to fifty years. What happens when there is no more restraint left in human society to greed, to sexual license, to killing babies, and the rest? How do Christians respond to this financial mayhem?...

Officers in the Christian Reformed Church are found running as Democrats for political office on pro-abortion positions, and end up advocating the killing of innocent children at the highest positions in the land. The first fault for the fall of America, the fall of the West, and the undoing of a civilization lies at the feet of the seminaries, the Christian college, and the Christian denominations. Either the church must discipline, or the worst case scenario occurs with the Christian Reformed ...

There are three reasons why utility prices are on the increase. But chief of which is the worldview that underlies the economy-destroying impulse on the part of Democrats (and some Republicans). Man worships the creation rather than the Creator, and therefore he will increasingly fail to take proper dominion over the earth as he was commissioned to do. In the end, environmentalism will become destructive of man and the environment both.

The midterm elections revealed the true heart of America . . . and it was a terrible day for the pro-life cause. The Supreme Court handed it off to the voters, and every referendum went pro-abortion. Meanwhile, the red wave was more of a red ooze. The Democrat creep is working in Pennsylvania. The progressives (leftists) had a heyday, while the principled right lost ground. But why are we losing ground in pro-life votes? Women voted Republican by a margin of 1% in 1988, but now they're going Dem...
