Analysis Conclusively Confirms Study Finding Same-sex Parenting Bad for Kids

“Young and Cumberworth found something unexpected and remarkable: not one of the two million significant alternatives resulted in positive outcomes for LGBT-parented children. Although often with smaller effects, every analysis confirmed the Regnerus study’s central finding that children turned out better with intact biological parents than with LGBT parents….”

(Michael Tennant – New American) Using a new method they developed for analyzing social-science data, a pair of sociologists was “surprised” to discover that, no matter how they sliced the data, they could not refute a 2012 study finding that children of same-sex “parents” fare much worse than those of married heterosexual parents.

Tulsi Gabbard Just Made Obama Eat It on the Russian Collusion Hoax

“Gabbard’s office released a declassified 2020 House Intelligence Committee report that showed that the Obama intelligence team had ZERO evidence of collusion between Donald Trump and Moscow, which tilted the 2016 race, but Obama ordered it to be published anyway.”  

(Matt Vespa – Townhall) President Trump was on the warpath yesterday, accusing former President Barack Obama of treason for his role in the Russian Collusion hoax. His office issued a weak sauce statement, the media did their party trying to dismiss this story, and the liberal pundit class tried to claim that this was conspiracy talk and a distraction from the Epstein files….

The Dilemma of False Dilemmas in the Church

Another hallmark example exists of a false dilemma being used in the church. In her book, Shepherds for Sale, Megan Basham points out how many stances—on everything from immigration to taking Covid-19 vaccines to transgender issues—are dependent on a love your neighbor principle. As Basham points out, the argument goes something like this: “Why should the United States reward tens of millions of illegal immigrants with citizenship despite the fact they broke our laws, and immigration drives down wages for blue-collar workers? Simple: love your neighbor.”

(Joshua Parcha – American Reformer) Chip and Joanna Gaines have a new show out on their Magnolia Network titled, “Back to the Frontier.” The show “is facing backlash from conservatives evangelicals because the show features a same-sex couple” and “their 10-year-old twin sons who were born via a surrogate,” according to AL.com and The Daily Beast. Responding to this controversy, Chip Gaines posted the following on X: Continue reading

Forgiveness of the Saints

7 “BLESSED ARE THOSE WHOSE LAWLESS DEEDS HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN, AND WHOSE SINS HAVE BEEN COVERED. 8 BLESSED IS THE MAN WHOSE SIN THE LORD WILL NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT.” Romans 4:7-8 (LSB) 

The Church, the genuine Church that is, is made up of people whose sins have been forgiven by our merciful God. What is the basis for this forgiveness? Are these God has forgiven more worthy than those outside the Church? Let us look at the paradox of our Holy, Righteous, and Just God who proclaims that He will not forgive those who have sinned against Him, but who does show mercy to some. Continue reading

That Escalated Quickly — Obama Russia Hoax Edition

“I’m too jaded to believe that we’ll ever see an Obama or a Clinton face charges, but how about a Christopher Steele, a James Comey, an Andrew McCabe, a John Brennan, or any of the many other high-level underlings who made Russiagate happen?”

(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) Way back in the first week of 2023 — long before the 2024 Republican primary slog got underway — I wrote that I wanted President Trump to go scorched-earth if he got a second term in office. We were only two years into the Joe Biden nightmare and I needed something positive to focus on to keep myself from ending up as a functionally alcoholic groomer in a Tijuana Donkey Show. Continue reading

The Rainbow Flag is the New Swastika

“We are not witnessing the dawn of tolerance or building a brighter future. We are witnessing the twilight of reason, marching, one banner at a time, into a brave new darkness—where reality is malleable, children are pawns, and truth is whatever the regime says it is.”

(The Dissenter) The image [on the site] says it all. Wembley Way—that grand corridor of British pride leading up to the iconic Wembley Stadium—now draped not in the Union Jack, not in team colors, not even in neutral, celebratory decoration. No, the entire promenade has been lined, lockstep and in perfect uniformity, with massive banners of the so-called “Progress Pride” flag. Continue reading

All My Christian Heroes Are Now Dead…Or Dead To Me

One by one, these heroes began to fall. They began to say and do things that did not line up with what Scripture teaches ….precious few held the line and finished well. R. C. Sproul and John MacArthur were among the few who did not waver. They stood strong while other men gave in to “the spirit of the age.”

(Geoff Kujawa – Clear Truth Media) John MacArthur is dead. And with him, the last of my heroes.

I became a believer in 2000 as a freshman in college and immediately went deep into theology. I looked for, and found, many voices I could reliably listen to for content to take me deeper into my faith. I quickly found guys like John Piper, Louie Giglio, Mark Dever, Al Mohler, R. C. Sproul, Tim Keller, Alistair Begg, and of course, John MacArthur. Continue reading

Breaking: Obama lackey Ben Rhodes might wanna lawyer up…

“Americans will finally learn the truth about how in 2016, intelligence was politicized and weaponized by the most powerful people in the Obama Administration to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President Trump, subverting the will of the American people and undermining our democratic republic.” 

(Revolver) John Durham spent four years and ten million dollars investigating the phony Russia collusion hoax—and what did we get? Some rando FBI lawyer was caught fudging an email for a surveillance warrant.

That’s it. Continue reading

Joanna Gaines Is Super LGBTQ Affirming, Praises Gay ‘Throuple’ Anouncement?

“In this post he reveals “I’m in love with a man who is so good. My life is so good, and I am so thankful. No more hate.” This man became the third partner in the couple’s relationship, with the three forming a ‘throuple’ to raise the children together.”

(Protestia) Professing Christian couple and TV personalities Chip and Joanna Gaines, known for their HGTV show ‘Fixer Upper’ and the Magnolia brand, are facing criticism for their decision to prominently feature a same-sex couple in their new series, Back to the Frontier. While this is bad enough, a deep dive into her social media history paints an even more disturbing picture. Continue reading

A Wake-Up Call for Late Night

“Eighty million Americans voted for the President. Few of them can stomach Steve.  Ideological zealotry at midnight can be tedious. The all-time king of late night, Johnny Carson, understood that.  Old Johnny got his zingers in, but he rarely tried to demean anyone.”

(Bill O’Reilly) Stephen Colbert has been vaporized, cancelled by CBS.  Donald Trump is celebrating.  Liberal Hollywood is outraged!  Regular folks don’t care.

Goodnight, everybody. Continue reading

The Biden Admin Stole Your Data to Rig Elections and Censor Speech

“If this data weaponization is left unchecked, it will not be limited to Democrats or the Biden administration. History has shown that the erosion of freedoms for one group inevitably paves the way for broader abuses.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) Jason Chaffetz has delivered a devastating exposé that should terrify every American who values his or her constitutional rights. Writing in the New York Post, the former House Oversight Committee chairman pulls back the curtain on what may be the most comprehensive assault on American democracy we’ve witnessed in our lifetime—and it’s happening with our own tax dollars. Continue reading

Christian faith and hope

1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we boast in hope of the glory of God. Romans 5:1-2 (LSB) 

What is the difference between faith and hope? Are they the same thing? They are not the same but, so-to-speak, they are two sides of the same coin. If I want my old college to win in football against our biggest rival that is hope. On the other hand, if I believe it will happen then it is faith. With this faith, my hope is enhanced. It becomes active. On the other hand, if I have little faith that it will happen then my hope becomes simply wishful thinking. What about our faith through which we are saved by grace? Is this faith simply working up enough belief so that our hope becomes strong, or is there more to it than that? Continue reading

We Now Have the Smoking Gun Proving Biden House Pressured DOJ To Target Parents

“The Garland memo was never about public safety—no credible, actionable threat justified the mobilization of the FBI against parents attending school board meetings. It was about intimidation, about making an example of ordinary Americans who dared challenge the ideological orthodoxy being forced on their children.”

(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) The revelations unveiled by America First Legal mark a seismic moment in the ongoing debate over the weaponization of the Department of Justice under the Biden administration. For years, concerned parents who spoke up at school board meetings found themselves caught in the crosshairs of a federal government wielding its power not to protect free speech, but to stifle dissent…. Continue reading

GOP Erupts After Gabbard Exposes Obama Admin’s ‘Treasonous’ Intel Plot Framing Trump: ‘Makes Watergate Look Like Amateur Hour’

“Joe Biden and Barack Obama knew about it. Hillary Clinton fabricated it. The FBI orchestrated it. And the mainstream media sold it. Trump-Russia collusion was all a made-up HOAX. We NEED accountability.”

(Joshua Klein – Breitbart) Republican lawmakers delivered a thunderous response following Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s explosive declassification of documents proving the Obama administration deliberately manufactured intelligence to create the false Trump-Russia collusion narrative, with revelations that expose what one Republican described as a disinformation campaign against the American people that “makes Watergate look like amateur hour.” Continue reading

Jesus Christ is God

14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM”; and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.'” (Exodus 3:14 NASB)

In our look at the Bible as the living Word of God and His communication to His people, we understand that it is not just a collection of writings or simply a history. No, the Holy Spirit not only indwells Christians he also indwells Sacred Scripture. When believers read and study the Word of God, The Holy Spirit works through it to accomplish spiritual, eternal work within them. God communicates with His people primarily through His Word. One of the main goals in this is His revelation of Himself to those who love Him. Continue reading

Dershowitz: Trump Isn’t Hiding the Epstein Creeps; These Two People Are

Watch the videos.

(Kevin Downey JR – PJ Media) Alan Dershowitz, a renowned constitutional lawyer and former counsel for Jeffrey Epstein, who has been a thorn in the side of the party he votes for when it comes to all things Trump, is spilling his guts about Epstein. So let’s dig through the entrails and see what he is talking about.

FACT-O-RAMA! I spend much of my time rubbing elbows with MAGAheads at The America First Warehouse, the most patriotic venue in the galaxy. Sure, a lot of us are disappointed that Team Trump hasn’t released Epstein’s “list,” but we as a team are not “fractured” or “divided” as the Operation Mockingbird media is claiming. Continue reading

In a Chaotic Time, The Strength of MacArthur Inspired Us to be Unshaken

“We don’t need novel strategies when it comes to ministry. We just need to get back to the basics. We need to get back to the Bible. Defending truth in the public square is loving your neighbor. Warning against lies that destroy souls is gospel work. The idea that cultural confrontation and gospel proclamation are mutually exclusive is itself a modern invention.”

(J. Chase Davis – American Reformer) To me, John MacArthur was everything I didn’t want to be. To be frank, I found him unbearable. I was a young church planter. I wanted to reach the city and break bread with sinners. The goal was to be able to articulate the gospel in understandable terms to a secular audience without offending them. But this didn’t stay at the level of ideas. It was a lifestyle. While no God-fearing minister would have admitted it, the goal was to fit in and be “cool.”… Continue reading

AAP claims doctors don’t profit from vaxing kids. Receipts says otherwise…

“Whether the cash came directly from the feds or flowed through Medicaid, insurance plans, or private networks, the result was the same: doctors got paid to push vaccines, and that fact destroys the narrative the AAP is so desperately clinging to.”

(Revolver) While the media and medical establishment scramble to cover for each other, the truth keeps leaking out, and as you can imagine, it’s not pretty. This week, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) took to X to slam RFK Jr. for saying what a lot of us already knew: pediatricians made money, real, big money, off the COVID vaccine push, especially on kids. Continue reading

Donald Trump Calls to Release ‘All Pertinent Grand Jury Testimony’ in Jeffrey Epstein Case

(Paul Bois – Breitbart) President Donald Trump called to release “all pertinent grand jury testimony” relating to the Jeffrey Epstein case in the wake of increased scrutiny over the convicted sex offender’s dealings with high-profile public figures.

Writing on his TruthSocial account, the president called the Epstein controversy a “scam” perpetuated by Democrats.

“Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to court approval. This SCAM, perpetuated by Democrats, should end, right now!” he wrote. Continue reading

An Epidemic of Mal-Parenting

Mr. Williams has made some excellent suggestions; however, he neglected to include Bible reading and taking children to church regularly. It’s easy to see why he excluded them.  

(Armstrong Williams – The Patriot Post) The nation is afflicted with an epidemic of mal-parenting. How do we know? The persistence of shocking levels of juvenile delinquency and crime. The posterchild case is Ethan Crumbley, guilty of murdering four students at Oxford High School in southeastern Michigan in 2021 and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Continue reading

The Epstein List and the Certainty of Secret Sins Revealed

“Those who live long lives of luxury and wealth, hiding their crimes and covering their sins will in a moment be destroyed. The terrors of divine wrath will sneak up on them, and they will find themselves suffering under eternal torment in the lake of fire, all of their wicked deeds having been made known to all. Everything they thought they had shrouded in impenetrable darkness will be revealed by the light of God’s holy judgment.”

(Robb Brunansky – The Cripplegate) People across the political spectrum were outraged this week when President Donald Trump dismissed the importance of the Epstein List. During his campaign, President Trump said, “Yeah, I’d do the Epstein thing. I’d have no problem with it.” Many people voted for President Trump, at least in part, because he promised to release the list. Earlier this year, Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed on Fox News that she was in possession of the Epstein List and was reviewing it. However, this past week when a reporter asked Ms. Bondi about the list, Mr. Trump intervened, shaming the reporter for still being concerned about who might have been Jeffrey Epstein’s “clients.”…, Continue reading

Epstein updated: Loomer Makes President Trump an offer he shouldn’t refuse…

(Revolver) The Epstein files have ripped open a deep and growing divide inside the MAGA movement. But this isn’t just about some scumbag rich guy and his perverse island crimes. This is about justice. It’s about whether or not we’re really going to hold the elite class accountable or let them, yet again, walk away totally unscathed. And even more than that, it’s also about whether President Trump is truly surrounded by the right people for the job ahead.

As a result of the “Epstein divide,” there are now two very distinct camps inside MAGA. One side is demanding total transparency on Epstein and his grotesque network of coconspirators, and they’re not letting go. They want names, timelines, and prosecutions. You can’t blame them, right? Continue reading

An Open Letter to Chip and Joanna Gaines

“What you’re currently experiencing as a storm of conservative indignation is actually a crowd of Christians pounding on your front and back doors, which I grant may feel aggressive, except for the minor detail that we’re just out here trying to let you know that your roof is on fire.”

By Lindsay Whitlow – Clear Truth Media

Dear Chip and Jo,

You don’t remember, but we first met in 2017. I was 24 years old, a new wife and an even newer mom. Our daughter, Reagan, was born just 10 months after Steven’s and my wedding. For the first time since adulthood, I wasn’t going to work every day. My world had become very small. I’ve heard women fondly reference their “postpartum show,” the television series that they marathoned during their first weeks with a new baby. Mine was Fixer Upper. Continue reading

The Open Door

24 And when they passed through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia. 25 And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia. 26 And from there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work that they had fulfilled. 27 And when they had arrived and gathered the church together, they began to report all things that God had done with them and how He had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles. 28 And they spent not a little time with the disciples. Acts 14:24-28 (LSB) 

Not all of the letters to the churches from our Lord in the book of Revelation were as harsh as the one to Laodicea. In his letter to the church in Philadelphia he commended their faith and good works. In that letter He made one marvelous statement (v8) that we will be the focus of this post. Continue reading
