Podcast, Blog, Bible study and commentary on cultural events, politics and news from a Christian world view perspective. Join me and let's talk about what's going on! Feel free to share and God bless.
Today's talk is on the intimidation factor of speaking up in evangelism. Sometimes, we're either too harsh or to intimidated to speak up as the Church.
Looking forward to continuing the podcast this new year - this time under the continued spiritual reality of our DIVINE NATURE.
The divine nature is the walk of faith in the promises of God in Christ. Where by if we truly believe these promises we can walk in holiness baring good fruit as we abide in the Vine.
Look out for the next Divine Nature Podcast coming soon!
The festering symptoms and signs of a society in decline: Prostitution.
As corruption continues in high places, our government abandons the needed physical infrastructure as well as moral infrastructure to maintain order. This is what government corruption looks like.
This is what it looks like when government hates its people. When control and power is more important than human well being.
Perhaps not all in government hate us but without a doubt, and it's more than obvious that there are way too many who have infiltrated our nation's government and who have no love for our nation or its people.
There are many already compromised and dedicated to our nation's dismantling and destruction.
Abandonment of what is right and the muddying of what is wrong is what we see every single day.
Stealing from the people via imposed tax increase and then allocation of our money for investments outside the interest of the people.
The purposeful depletion of our economy by extreme spending to the tune of $150 trillion of debt we could NEVER pay back, and only approx. $5 trillion in assets of which approx. 40% is in student debt. How pathetic is that!
Our nation has always been threatened by its enemies "foreign and domestic" (even before the founding of our nation) but for decades, it's been on full attack mode by infiltration and subversion.
America's enemies have morally weakened the people from various fronts and now saving this nation can only be done but by the grace of God. Returning to God is the ONLY WAY.
And that might sound silly to the secular but it shouldn't to those who are truly Spiritual. Because we know that obeying God's voice by way of Holy Biblical inspiration is how we'll progressively push back the greed, the injustice; take care of the fatherless (widows and orphans), those truly in need; we'll halt evil spending and ultimately rely on our God who upholds all things by His power.
In 2 Timothy 2:12 we read:
"...If we deny Him, He also will deny us..."
Also... verse 19...
"Nevertheless the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, "THE LORD KNOWS THOSE WHO ARE HIS", and "EVERYONE WHO NAMES THE NAME OF THE LORD is to DEPART FROM WICKEDNESS.""
Our cities are being over-run by illegal immigrants who we can't take care of; infiltration of the most dangerous and addictive drugs; illegal guns that fall into the hands of our children and gangs; increased homelessness; holes within our legal system allowing criminals back on the streets to rob, steal and kill, etc...
Is it not more than apparent that something else is in control of our decaying nation? How could we have descended so quickly? Do we see how quickly the unraveling of a society happens?
Our nation is incarcerating its political enemies and criminalizing free speech ... Our freedoms are deteriorating.
When judgment comes, it comes swift and fast!
It's because we've lost contact with our God. Our laws once reflected that we had "contact" with God but today, we make every single excuse to shy away from that contact, and deny the very God who "bought us"... by our idolatrous distractions.
We're in the process of being spewed from the land just as those who were here before us... and Biblical history shows that God is the same "today, tomorrow, and forever more". Why would we forget that?
We haven't taught our children to behold and fear God.
We haven't been holy examples of true God worshippers at home.
Our priests, teachers and shepherds who were in the position to dictate The Word of God in the public square confused God's message in the pulpits.
We started to worship the gift rather than the gift Giver.
BUT The Lord Himself showed us the way to return!
Will we heed His voice even now? "My sheep hear my voice."
“Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, each according to his way,” declares Lord Yahweh. “Turn back and turn away from all your transgressions, so that iniquity may not become a stumbling block to you. Cast away from yourselves all your transgressions which you have committed and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! Now why will you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone who dies,” declares Lord Yahweh. “Therefore, turn back and live.”
-- Ezekiel 18:30-32
Have you ever wondered, "Where the USA is in Biblical prophesy?
I've always come to the conclusion that the US will either be part of the nations which will align with the NWO globalist confederation described in the book of Revelation or the USA could be "BABYLON THE GREAT" itself. Or worse yet, ....
The USA as a nation, might have already been destroyed and scattered abroad; picked apart by other nation/s.
Scary to think of, yes.
But then you must remember that just as Christ said, "My Kingdom is not of this world.".... He meant this about Him as well as His subjects.
How many of us (Americans) Understand the importance of this Amendment?
Why do we have a 2nd Amendment?
How many of us see what's going on in the battle for the 2nd Amendment?
This is monumentally important, it's historical, and it has everything to do with not just the 2nd Amendment but ALL OF OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.
Check out the podcasts I did some time ago on "Christian Nationalism" and "Religion and Politics".
Yes, we're Biblical Christians but we're also Christian-Americans "for such a time as this", and for a reason (I must add).
Every now and then it seems, there's an extremely emboldened politician who makes a really extreme move in order to test the nerve of the American people. This politician thinks she can place a "pause" on our constitutional rights!
We saw them do similar during the C*vid drama not long ago didn't we?
I remember when a Houston Mayor a few years back made a decree stating that Church pastors needed to hand in their sermons ... Remember that one?
Testing the will of the American people. That's what these elites do.
This demonstrates not just their desperation but intentions despite their denials and hypocrisy. We've been seeing their incremental desecration of our US Constitutional laws for decades.
A crackdown on spiritual activities is forcing Chinese Christians in the Henan province to apply online for permission to attend church.
The ‘Smart Religion’ requirements app created by the Henan provincial religious department does not have a legal basis, China Aid reports. There has been a drop in numbers attending churches because of the introduced measures.
Henan has a large Christian population, and believers must now register and make appointments for any religious activity via the ‘Smart Religion’ application. It was created by the Ethnic and Religious Affairs Commission of Henan Province. Muslims and other religions have also been affected by the same controlling directive.
According to China Aid, those registering first need to choose the intended religious venue and no key search words are allowed, such as ‘Christianity’ or ‘Catholicism.’
Personal information is then inputted to make a reservation: name, date of birth, phone number, ID number, permanent residence, and occupation. Church attendees must also give a reservation code and have their bodily temperature checked. Older people would be guided by officials in using the mobile phone application.

Do we truly think that this can't happen in the USA?
This in fact did already happen here as a trial run...
Do you remember the approximate 2-year fiasco and shut downs that happen during the Corona Virus plan-demic? Many believe this was a trial run and many believe this will soon happen again.
And what if it were to happen again?
We saw what happen!
We saw how people reacted..
We saw how neighbor fought against neighbor...
We experienced the inconsistencies and the bad and dishonest governing bodies literally creating rules and laws out of thin air - for the sake of the "greater good".
Church services were relegated to Zoom meetings ... and many were satisfied with that. Threats and arrests were made.
Singing hymns was discouraged... Gathering and worship congregations discouraged while violent and disruptive leftist protests were encouraged....
The next time around will be better?... You think?
Pray so that you'll be able to stand in the evil day.
Not everything conservative is Christian... I mean, Biblically Christian.
Apply discernment brethren.
My momma used to say, "The Devil ain't so smart because he's so evil but because he's so old".... (in Spanish of coarse).
Listen to this latest episode of The Dividing Line w/ Dr. James White and allow him to break down what we're seeing in the culture among "Evangelicals", "Conservatives", and "Christians".
Because we're living in the last days, and the apostacy is so great, people - even those who call themselves by God's name are ignorant concerning truth and true worship of God. They don't truly know their Bibles, and because of this, they have no power over sin, they're not assembling in a local church; they don't have power, joy or love in their lives, and many are only fooling themselves w/ religion.
They don't see the importance of separating themselves from the world and/or don't know how to separate from the world.
I'm constantly mocked about having low numbers of subscribers and followers on my social media outlets but I'm never discouraged.
I've early on determined that this thing I do (which I recently recognized as a Gospel ministry) isn't about ME; it's not about making friends or increasing the numbers of followers, it's about speaking up for truth in a culture where speaking up is discouraged, and soon to be outlawed.
My message isn't one of popularity and prosperity nor even a pleasant message. It's more like a call to sacrifice yourself - which is the double-edged sword of Biblical truth. Christ's call to salvation means NEW BIRTH but only at the cost of DYING TO SELF.
As Americans we're losing our Constitutional rights and even now, many people can't see this happening.
I'm doing my part so that when that time comes, it'll help to at least say, "I knew it!" rather than, "What on earth is going on here?!"....
The latter expression would be too great a regret for me to tolerate!
So I rather be that watchman on the wall in Ezekiel 33 warning people because I see so many asleep and distracted.
That distraction is how Satan operates! Satan and his worldly system puts people to sleep this way and then comes the rude awakening.
Those who name the name of Christ must wake up and mature fast b/c the days are evil, and the Christian walk is that of war... not only for self but for others.
Christian joy is recognized in knowing that Christ has already conquered and because He has conquered, we too will conquer. But it's understanding and believing this WHILE WE'RE IN THE WAR which is never easy.
We need spiritual reinforcements for ourselves and for others and those can only be obtained by much prayer, fasting, and meditation. This is what abiding in Christ is all about.
Who can stand? Only the person who has built their house on the Rock that is Christ.
If you want to know more on this light and truth, contact me in total confidence.
Christian, get to a local congregation, serve your brethren and neighbors (which is true worship in spirit and truth as well as the commandment of Christ), and worship daily in The Lord and grow spiritually.
Christian! Who has bewitched you to be so intimidated to preach and proclaim truth in all halls of justice, the public square, including the court steps?
There is no place where the truth of God can not penetrate! Or what do you supposed The Lord truly meant concerning us being "Salt and Light"???
Where are we posting our lampstand, up high or somewhere hidden?
Contrary to what so many believe, politics IS law, and law is in religion. God has spoken about it all. Are you going to let the world system drown out the Christian message in your generation or are you going to pave the way for society on behalf of your children and grandchildren?
Have courage and preach Christ in season and out of season, and from the roof tops!
Our nation disrespects marriage (in rebellion to God)
Have we reached that point of no return??
Our nation keeps shaking its fist to God. Our nation has been given over to the globalist powers to usher in the construction of that new world order. Who can stop the subversion? There are so many plants and moles, (foreign and domestic). And sadly, not enough Holy Spirit filled voices to hold back or stall any further the Beast system.
God has sent that delusion and the axe is being laid to the root of the tree... I'm referring to JUDGMENT. WE ARE BEING JUDGED. However, God knows who are His.
Stand firm, God is still on the throne and nothing happens unless He allows it. The Beast system must create a new morality before this satanic system eats itself and implodes into it's own black hole of depravity.
Listen to my latest podcast on this disrespect for marriage, the institution which God Himself created FOR US. Marriage is not just for us to obey His command: "Be fruitful and multiply" (in His image) but also, by marriage we find value and understanding of our spiritual and intimate connection to God, our Creator - as in, We are ONE BODY in Him.
However, the culture has continued trying to redefine what marriage is in overt rejection of God's intention for us in Him.
The culture can never succeed in this. They'll never be able to redefine marriage for this reason. Because it's a supernatural and extremely physical thing that transcends the physical.
In this video, I challenge someone pushing for the satanic temple a church which is filled with wall to wall contradictions in self representation, morality, reason and politics, etc.
Yes, the member of this church above admitted there's nothing wrong with Pedo-fantasies! He also couldn't answer why it's always wrong to abuse the innocent in society! Yet, they claim they're for justice, fairness, and equity for all! Wow!
It's NO WONDER there are KNOWN, PROTECTED and ADMITTED Pedophiles in government in many secularist nations - The Netherlands being one of them.
Is THIS NATION headed in that same direction in this continuously growing secularist society???
Is it no wonder we're hearing of the rapid growth of pedophilia in our culture today???
Yes, we're headed in that direction folks!
This church affiliation is built under the obvious tenets of lies, purposeful deception (in false representation by saying they don't worship Satan or recognize Satan yet they name their church by him and continually call out, "Hail Satan!"),
They're for child sacrifice which they hold as a RELIGIOUS NECESSITY and against bodily autonomy (for humans in the womb); against constitutional rights to life of the human in the womb (which is AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION OF THE US and the bill of rights).
They are for the continuation of population control, and for the human holocaust of abortion ; scientism and the rejection of the known reproductive science (fertilization in the womb, conception and genetics, which establishes humanity in the womb, etc.);
This is the science of what makes a human being. Therefore, you can say they are also SCIENCE DENIERS....
SO they call themselves by the name of Satan which they claim not to even believe in (which is extremely bad PR for any organization to misrepresent themselves and expose their deception.
Why not call yourselves the church of peace or the church of social justice or the church of human love, etc., ??? .. Or "The Church of Secular Humanism?"
If you're trying to sell MORALITY, justice and human rights, that church name isn't going to reflect it or the seriousness of your cause.
It just demonstrates they're obsession against Christianity which actually DOES consider having a message of love and peace and redemption - for 2000 years.
But it's ironic because not only do they utilize the name of Satan which is a real entity according to the Bible
But
-They don't believe in the supernatural but name themselves by Satan... A SUPERNATURAL entity found in the Bible.
-They call for separation of church and state but have the tenets of their world view taught in all government schools, (secularism, atheism, evolutionary hypothesis taught as science), which is not even a theory but a hypothesis.
-They call out for religions to be separated from govt. but hypocritically want to collect monetary benefits from the govt. via 501-c status,
-So they want to be recognized in society for being honest and moral and A-political BUT when you take a look at what they're about, and what they're FOR,
THEY are for NONE OF THOSE THINGS!
They're for the opposite of human rights, religious rights, the right to life, objective and decent moral values and objective moral standards.
As secularists, they argue for a shifting subjective and relative morality which might be today one thing but tomorrow, something else. They're basis of reality is just as concrete as their relativistic world view.
So they MISREPRESENT THEMSELVES,
THEY LIE AND DECEIVE
THEY'RE FOR MONEY FROM THE GOVT.
THEY'RE FOR POPULATION CONTROL
THEY'RE ANTI-SCIENCE BY DENYING HUMAN BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE
THEY'RE AGAINST THE RIGHT TO LIFE (BILL OF RIGHTS) The protection and sanctity of life.
with all these inconsistencies do they think they're going to be taken seriously?
Actually no, they won't be taken seriously because the only people who are for all these misrepresentation, lies, deception and immoralities are those who are at heart immoral, anarchist and tyrannical, totalitarians; People who have a serious hatred for God - who they know exist, and who convicts the world of sin.
These are the extreme followers of THE BEAST SYSTEM I recently spoke about in one of my latest podcasts. Look it up: "THE BEAST SYSTEM IS HERE!!!"
These are the ones who'll take the mark of the beast in (these) last days and who will celebrate when the final anti-Christ persecutes the true Church of Christ.
These are the ones who will pull Christians out of churches, burst into their places of worship to protest, set their churches on fire, etc. They will continue to oppose Christ's church on the earth just as end times prophesy details.
You'll see on this video the interaction with a representative of this secular mentality. You'll notice how his reasoning isn't just warped but it's blatantly irrational and immoral when he finds ways to argue FOR and rationalize pedophilia, and the abusing of innocent people from his relativistic world view.
You can clearly see how someone in this world view could be mentally conditioned to perform evil, If he's already mentally there. It doesn't take much!!
Especially since he argues that evil thoughts are not bad (as he states).
He believes in no moral standard (as he said himself), and believes that societies are the arbiters of what is right, just and fair...
He completely ignores what happen in China with Mao and in Russia with Stalin, etc. And yet they deny secularism isn't a slippery slope to this extreme evil. History proved that it is!
As history teaches us:
Secularism is the foundation of communism, Marxism, racism, totalitarianism, anarchy, population control, gas chambers, genocide, euthanasia, eugenics, and lets not forget, the guillotine!!
People will run towards Satan in order to run away from God to their peril.
All I can say is, let's get our kids out of the govt. schools ASAP, because our school system is a breeding ground for this relativistic and subjective moralist indoctrination.
While we hear the call to keep religion out of schools, the secularists have for decades indoctrinated children in their secularist religion (the tenets argued for in this video).
We see the state of our nation as a result - and it's not because the western world is becoming more Christian. Quite the opposite, it's becoming MORE secular.
These folks are only the more extreme minded when they push this religion not even caring about their obvious rebellious mis-representation of what's good under a symbolism of the epitome of evil itself, Satan and thinking people can't see through the lies.
This is what it looks like. No civility, immorality and high crime, high taxes and inflation; homelessness, and chaos! Oh, but ... no more mean tweets!
So what do we see going on in our government today? Anarchy, chaos, immorality, godlessness, lawlessness, etc.
We have politicians calling themselves, Democrats who don't speak up against those to their extreme left... they just allow bad things to happen.
Meanwhile, we're seeing this more extreme side of their party push for policies against our US constitutional laws and rights, looking to create more chaos by delegitimizing our local law enforcement, etc. There are leftist extremist legislators appointing laws which impede law in order in the most populated districts and communities within our nation.
For example, recently the people of San Francisco finally ousted an extremist district attorney in who is one of a number of top law enforcers being assigned (in the US) as district attorney and they are purposely being picked to NOT enforce the laws on the books.
These leftist extremist politicians are opportunists who might as well be voting themselves in to office because their electorate are so dumbed-down and placed on a hamster wheel of repetitive ignorance that they can't get off a repeated cycle of community implosion.
All the policies on the extreme left are against societal and human flourishing.
But with every generation, we can trace back the same mentality that has always operated against our national sovereignty and prosperity by looking at all those who have always wanted to destroy the bill of rights and our US Constitution.
Is it normal for a high ranking government official like Chuck Schumer (The Democratic Minority leader), to verbally threaten supreme court justices like he did at the steps of SCOTUS in Washington DC a couple of years ago? Is it normal for people to crowed and shout, "We won't be civil" in front of these justices homes solely because they think they may decide on overturning Roe v. Wade?
Is it even American to appoint that district attorney in San Francisco when he actually has terrorist family ties? How does that happen?
From the very inception of our nation, there was always those who opposed our freedom and were more concerned with detaching themselves from law and order, individual freedom and prosperity in order to gain power for themselves. And now they're implementing social chaos in society in order to topple the whole system down and make it easier for themselves to come and pick up the remaining pieces of what's left of America.
While some are accused of being "conspiracy theorists", many of the founders of our nation spoke clearly concerning conspiracies that were actually going on - even in their time. They spoke out against real-time conspiracies and against "enemies foreign and domestic".
Conspiracies are simply evil plans that are implemented in a society for the sake of gaining power. Now you can see how synonymous that resonates with our current political and cultural climate.
Another massacre! Lord stand near those families who have to go through this living nightmare in Texas and in New York . Let us groan and mourn with those who are in endless pain and turmoil. Lord have mercy on us! The world won't address this correctly because it CAN'T. "... and the way of peace thy have not known". Prayers for those loved ones of all those lost, hurt and affected by this depravity. 🙏
The fangs of the pro-death side come out, and they don't care about making political sense, laying a moral stance, or benefitting human kind in any way.
Anyone who calls "Murder care", Healthcare, has drank the cool 'aid.
Anyone who says murdering our offspring is the best plan to heal the social ills of poverty, injustice etc., has gotten drunk on the cool 'aid, etc.
When you can't make sense for maintaining an American holocaust on every street corner in the nation, you have to bring on the violence because....
Should Christians get involved in politics and if we do, what should it look like?
It's a fine line and can get pretty complicated. If we as Christians get involved in politics we must bring God's Word into a political platform. If we do, will we be able to properly fit into our current left or right political platforms? Beware of those who state that this can be easily done or that God's Word, the Bible can fit easily into any political platform we have now in the US. While it's a shame not to have ANY political voice today and stay away from anything going on in the culture, it's just as bad to try and force the Word of God into our current Democratic or Republican political platform which by and large, is a man-made pragmatic and moralistic creation. Look out for my podcast coming soon, where I'll try and tackle this subject. Hopefully, I'll drag this subject back out for someone out there and get us to continue talking about it. ----
