Dear Abortive Mothers, I want to apologize on behalf of the Church for not being upfront with you. We, as the Church, have failed you in many ways. First, I would like to apologize on behalf of the Church for lying to you. You see, the Church has been relentlessly...
In 2020, the Roman Catholic pope sent a donation to a group of transgender prostitutes living in the small town of Torvaianica, Italy who are out of work amid the coronavirus outbreak. This is not satire, it actually happened. The pope has been increasingly supportive...
In today's Christian landscape, an intriguing trend is unfolding: a surge of people claiming the titles of "Prophet" or "Apostle." With an air of spiritual authority, they assert themselves as contemporary mouthpieces of God, equipped with new revelations and divine...
In a move that strikes at the very heart of American liberty, New York's Appellate Division has ruled in favor of a regulation that could be plucked straight from an Orwellian nightmare. A decision that has many asking the question: why would anyone want to live in...
TULSA, Oklahoma—The death of Bishop Carlton D'Metrius Pearson at the age of 70, following a protracted battle with cancer, marks the end of a chapter characterized by profound theological heterodoxy and spiritual turmoil. Pearson's radical departure from orthodox...
Thanksgiving is just a few days away, and I can already taste my wife's delicious turkey. But let's face it, it's not always fun to gather with your extended family around the holidays and break bread with them. In fact, for many of us, it's more of an obligation than...
Lecrae, a "Christian" rapper who says he "deconstructed" from Christianity and has now embraced something completely new that doesn't resemble Christianity at all, says that he hates words like "Bible," and "discipleship" because these words "trigger" him. Over the...

Mike Johnson, the esteemed House Speaker and a reputed conservative Christian figure, is currently embroiled in a controversy that challenges his long-held pro-life stance. Allegations have emerged, accusing Johnson of covertly working against legislation aimed at...
Samuel Perry, a University of Oklahoma sociologist, has fashioned himself as a fierce antagonist to what he labels "white Christian Nationalism" in America, a concept that should be outright rejected as a fabricated alarmist theory. His book, "Taking America Back for...
I give our new House Speaker, Mike Johnson, the benefit of the doubt and have no reason to believe that he isn't a true brother in Christ, despite his erroneous and unbiblical views on certain issues the Church and our nation face, particularly abortion. But he's more...
The Vatican, in its never-ending ecumenical push to merge the world's religions into one, has taken a step that, (surprise!) contradicts core biblical principles and blasphemes the one, true, risen Savior Jesus Christ. The Seventh Buddhist-Christian Colloquium, as...
In the last few weeks, North Carolina and Kentucky Baptist Associations both unanimously passed resolutions seeking equal protection under the law for unborn children. These strong, anti-abortion resolutions mirror a robust, theological stance that all people,...
"We live in a post-modern world, and postmodernism is about relativism. My truth is your falsehood, and your falsehood is my truth. But there is such a thing as the plain truth." (Barukh Binah) Barukh Binah captured succinctly one of the pillars of postmodernism, the...
The professing Church in America has turned into nothing more than a Sunday morning freak show. We have covered a number of wild sermon illustrations over the years. For example, in one illustration, a pastor has someone come up and hold a gun to his head to...
Bobbie Storm, a contemporary Christian singer associated with the Maverick City Music label—a label also known for its popular artists like the pro-abortion rapper, Kirk Franklin, and a man who posts lewd images of himself on social media, Dante Bowe—was nearly kicked...
"Will man rob God? Yet you are robbing me." Malachi 3:8—a verse so frequently plucked from its Old Testament habitat and transplanted into the fertile soil of modern-day sermons, especially when the collection plate seems a little light. It's become the go-to verse...
In the latest episode of what can only be described as a political theatre of the absurd, New York Governor Kathy Hochul has unveiled her latest, and perhaps most arrogant, foray into Orwellian oversight—a "Social Media Analysis Unit." Wrapped in the velvety guise of...

The Gospel Coalition has long been an outlet for progressivism whether it be theological liberalism or political activism. And The Gospel Coalition has long been criticized by conservative Christians who reject the notion that only leftists are allowed to be vocal...
What was unthinkable just 10 years ago has become a celebrated phenomenon in our society today. The fact that parents are so eager and willing to hand their children over to perverted men dressed like insulting caricatures of women is really strange. Watch: Since the...

If I say to the wicked, 'You shall surely die,' and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die forhis iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. But if you warn the...
Ben Franklin in the 1750s voiced concern over too many Germans arriving in Pennsylvania and even commented on their “swarthy complexion.” Germans call it Uberfremdung or “over-foreignization.” It’s a fear that their homeland will be changed to where it is no...
There is a great evil that is now pervasive in our society and it's greater than any evil we've ever experienced in the history of the Church. To be clear, homosexuality and almost every form of sexual perversion have always existed. In fact, it's been in existence...
In Matthew 22:23-33, the scriptures report a confrontation between Jesus and the Sadducees, the theological liberals of that day. They were trying to trick Him, so they described a woman who had married a succession of brothers, each of whom died without issue. In the...
An important theme in the New Testament is the role that conscience plays in human lives. We immediately think of its role in the life of the believer, but we should never forget that the unbeliever has a conscience, too, though he deals with it in a very different...
I hear a lot of tripe today from leftists who complain that conservatives believe in a "Republican Jesus" or something absurdly insane like that. The argument is that the "Republican Jesus" is xenophobic, sexist, racist, and homophobic—or some combination of these...
Kirk Franklin has become an icon in the Contemporary Christian Music Gospel genre and has gained even more notoriety after touring with and becoming heavily involved in the contemporary worship music collective, Maverick City Music. Franklin made headlines in 2019...

What passes as a "pastor" in today's modern American professing Church is actually quite shocking. The biggest arguments of the historic professing church throughout the centuries used to be about things like the denial of the deity of Christ or a heretical view of...
How often do you judge others? Seldom? Frequently? Daily? Never? How well do you know those whom you judge? Public figures? Friends? Family? What criteria do you use in your judgments? Personal experience? Factual information? Opinion? We make direct, personal...
In Christian apologetics, we have a term that we use to describe how we ground our knowledge and reasoning in objective truth. That term is epistemology. Simply stated, epistemology is the study of how beliefs are justified. I don't intend to take a deep nosedive into...
Jemar Tisby is one of the leading agitators of the modern racial division in Evangelical churches in America. He regularly incites hatred and division between blacks and whites by indicting all white people with the inherent guilt of former white American slave owners...
A few years ago, I thought a racist was a person—black, white, or polka dot—who disliked someone of another race because they were of another race. Of course, that’s hardly their fault. However, from the major media, it seems I have been wrong all along. It seems...
I have written before about abortion as a modern revival of Molech worship, and of its promotion by apostate clergy, but now I want to speak of its eternal consequences, both by the women who have an abortion and for those, clergy or...
A new film has been released dealing with Hunter Biden’s misadventures in parts of the world where he and his father-president almost broke their backs carrying away baskets-full of cash. Newsweek reported that the film made “accusations of criminal activity against...
Probably the only thing George W. Bush ever said that I could agree with is that "we don't negotiate with terrorists." The statement, in and of itself, is a blanketly true statement that at the time was directed toward Islamic extremists causing terror around the...
In this episode, I rant about the Christian Franchise. Modern Christianity has adopted the franchise model in the 20th and 21st centuries. The Christian Franchise’s top service is affirmation. Everything she says and does is geared toward affirming people in the...
You may be aware by now of the scandal surrounding former Southwestern Seminary president, Adam Greenway and his forced resignation on the premise of incompetency. Greenway was slated to leave Southwestern and take a newly-created role at the International Mission...

As parents, it is our responsibility to ensure that our children are protected, guided, and nurtured in the ways of the Lord. We are commanded by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 6:4 to "bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." This is a weighty...

Last year, a statement released by Biologos, a pro-evolution group, caused a stir for its labeling of Francis Collins, former NIH director, as an "Apostle." The statement, titled "Love Your Neighbor, Get the Shot: A Christian Statement on Science for Pandemic Times,"...

On Saturday, November 12, 2022, a group of five Christian missionaries were reportedly assaulted and arrested near Ennis, Montana, while on a cross-country journey to raise awareness about the distress in the country. The group, led by North Carolina pastor and...
It is an absolute disgrace that the true Church refuses to denounce, with a bold and unified voice, these charlatans that continue to defile the name of Christ by pushing sexual perversions, Communism, and abortion in the name of Christ. I can't help but believe that...
"What do you call a person who's in a fight and doesn't know it? The Loser." That was what Voddie Baucham said during a recent interview with Tom Ascol on the Founders podcast referring to the fight that the Church is in against the cultural invasion of sexual...
Leftists are at it again and they won't stop until they have the complete and total submission of conservatives groveling at their feet. There is new legislation in Congress that aims to do just that. The Leading Against White Supremacy Act of 2023, introduced by the...
The transgender movement is an affront to the very foundations of logic, reason, and nature. It is a brazen rejection of one of the most fundamental truths of Creation: that God, in His infinite wisdom and power, made us male and female. In this age of political...
In 2018, Charlie Dates, a prominent and well-known uber-woke pro-socialist Southern Baptist pastor partook in the MLK50 Conference that was jointly hosted by The Gospel Coalition and the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. At that...

Yesterday, this nation witnessed in the state of Ohio arguably the most blatant rejection of God that has manifested in our time through the approval of Issue 1, a state constitutional amendment that cements the right of women to murder their children. In a move that...
In the Golden State's latest legislative escapade, California's Senate Bill 729 is on the cusp of creating a marketplace that commodifies the very cradle of life—women's bodies—effectively creating a legalized sex slave trade in the state. This proposed piece of...
