As Kamala Harris seems to be seriously considering Pete Buttigieg for her vice-presidential running mate, we are reminded of America's moral and spiritual decline. Such a move epitomizes our collective rebellion against our Creator and His order. Romans 1:18-32...
Upon hearing of the passing of Sarah Young last week, I made a decision to wait a few days before commenting on the tragic reality. Not because I believed I had to, but rather so these words would not get lost in the news cycle. I also know how people are in these...
In Part IV of our series on Debunking Leftist Myths About Jesus, we tackle the dishonest notion that Jesus was the epitome of modern-day "tolerance." The proponents of this myth willfully ignore the full scope of Christ's teachings to cherry-pick instances that serve...
Beth Moore, when she apostatized a few years ago and left a somewhat biblical denomination for a completely apostate denomination, made it clear that her intentions were to continue to rebel against God by performing the function and role of a pastor, which the...
Continuing our series on the pantheon of modern church snares, the phenomenon known as the "Seeker Sensitive Movement" merits particular attention. Born out of a desire for rapid church growth in the late 20th century, this unbiblical methodology puts the focus...
Richie, the clown barber, is a gimmicky character that combines the worlds of circus entertainment and haircare. While some may find his act amusing or engaging, the whole concept trivializes the craft of barbering. It's essentially a sideshow novelty. But three...
The newest trend in modern Evangelical megachurches is to set the lead pastor up as the primary visionary to which the rest of the church must conform without question. We've seen this evident in many of these megachurches from Hillsong to Elevation. In 2015, In a...
In this ongoing series, we continue to strip away the veneer of faux spirituality to expose the rotting core of myths that have led many astray in their understanding of Christ and His teachings. These fabrications are not harmless misunderstandings—they are perverse...
In a shocking but not shocking move, a Maryland district court judge has turned a blind eye to the plea of concerned parents, allowing a new policy that sidelines them from their children's education on LGBTQ issues. Conservative and Christian parents have come...
If you've been involved at all in Southern Baptist life over the past few years, you're probably aware by now of the growing controversy surrounding women pastors and preachers. With an increasing number of Southern Baptist churches calling women to preach and to...
The many ways that some movements have perverted the history and theology of Christ is a phenomenon that has perplexed many of us throughout history. At its root, this twisting of biblical truth typically stems from a desire to justify personal ideologies and...
A few months ago, I published a video on Twitter of a man named Curtis Chang who made the asinine argument that getting the COVID vaXX was just like Jesus saving people—the vaccine "redeemed an abortion" the same way Jesus redeems sinners. That was literally his...
In a world awash with the deceptive allure of secular progressivism, a sinister myth has crept into the hearts of many, even within the sacred confines of the Church. It's the poisoned idea that Jesus Christ, the Son of God and Savior of humanity, was an advocate for...
Benny Hinn is unequivocally a false teacher, a purveyor of doctrines that grossly contradict the inerrant Word of God as revealed in the Bible. His teachings, soaked in the charismatic soup of the prosperity gospel, are a plague on true Christianity, twisting the...
In our continuing examination of the snares afflicting the modern church, we have delved into various traps such as superficial unity, cultural appeasement, and the distortion of biblical convictions. As we arrive at Part X of this critical series, we uncover yet...
In a move that has raised eyebrows within the denomination, Southern Baptist podcaster and Executive Committee member, Jonathan Howe has been appointed as the interim president and CEO of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) Executive Committee, following the sudden...
In an era marked by uncertainty and a drift away from biblical truth, the warnings and judgments found in the pages of Scripture serve as grave reminders to us. These historical accounts are not merely tales of a bygone era but resounding calls to fidelity and...
The world today is flooded with distorted depictions and representations of Jesus Christ. In a quest for relevancy and appeal, modern culture, and even most modern churches, have twisted the figure of Jesus into something more palatable, more in line with human...
In the fascinating journey through the snares that entangle the modern church, the lure of "Cultural Appeasement" in Part VIII highlighted the ways in which church leaders and congregations can be ensnared by the desire to satisfy worldly desires. Now, we turn our...
An unsettling trend of disregard for biblical inerrancy and authority has swept through the modern church, ushering in an era of half-hearted fidelity to the Word of God. Popular false teachers like Andy Stanley, who spends the majority of his time belittling the...
Over the past two years, the so-called "woke church" movement appeared to be losing steam as its obsession with social justice and identity politics began losing favor with many of the laypeople who are committed to sound biblical doctrine and waking up to the...
