What you're about to hear really shouldn't sound all that crazy, particularly coming from a man who says Jesus barged in on him while he was laying naked in the bathtub and told him what his destiny was going to be. I mean, if you're that close to God, then it follows...
These people are so predictable that it isn't even funny. Last week, following the death of Tyre Nichols, a black man who was beaten by five black cops and ultimately died in the hospital from the trauma several days later, I predicted that the usual race-baiters...
Earlier today, we reported that a Southern Baptist megachurch in Jacksonville, FL was requiring its members to sign a statement affirming a biblical sexual ethic in spite of the culture's continuing devolution into sexual anarchy. Last night, First Baptist Church...
It's not always that we get to report a positive movement within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). As of late, we've been reporting a lot on one Florida SBC megachurch that seems to continue to slide closer and closer to fully embracing homosexuality. That church...

"Do not boil a goat in its mother's milk" -Deuteronomy 14:21. I remember the first time I read this verse in an Old Testament course in college, a long time ago. It struck me as very odd. Another one was, "If you come across a bird’s nest in any...
Preston Sprinkle, one of the founding advisory board members of Revoice, the “gay Christian” movement within Evangelical churches, has been instrumental in shifting the church’s doctrinal stance on homosexuality and other aberrant sexualities. It is through Sprinkle’s...
Brandan Robertson has been in the headlines quite a bit in the last year or so as he is an openly gay, self-described “pastor” who opposed traditional, biblical theology while installing himself as a biblical scholar and theologian. Robertson is an advocate for sexual...
The fall of man, as described in the book of Genesis, was a monumental event in human history that drastically altered the course of humanity's existence. It was the moment when humanity's disobedience towards God resulted in a separation from their Creator, commonly...

The Charismatic movement encompasses a wide range of ideologies and practices, ranging from the flamboyant and sensationalistic, with its reliance on flashy lights, smoke screens, and emotive music, to the highly polished, upscale, and affluent, with its imitation of...
The LGBTQ lobby desperately wants your children and if you're unconvinced of it, just look at all of the examples out there of crazy queers seeking out children to poison with their ideological filth. If our children see us cave to the sexual revolution and become...
Last year, we broke the news that Danny de Armas, the former chairman of the board of trustees for the Southern Baptist Convention's North American Missions Board preached a sermon praising homosexuals, transgenders, unmarried cohabitating couples, pro-choice people,...
Jesus said in Romans Mark 12:30-31 that the greatest of God's commandments are to "love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength" and to "love your neighbor as yourself." These are powerful words...

Have you ever heard your pastor tell you, frogs are a sign of the Fall? I have never read that in a commentary. But every time I talk to Christians about people who are intersex, they say, 'Well, they must be a result of the Fall, because we don't find them in Genesis...
The Church of England (CoE), also known as the Anglican Church, was established in the 16th century as a result of King Henry VIII's desire to divorce his wife, Catherine of Aragon. When the Pope refused to annul their marriage, Henry broke away from the Roman...

It is a damning indictment of our society when the genuine concerns of a young girl are dismissed and disregarded by the very institutions that are supposed to protect her. The fact that it is even legal for a grown man to masquerade as a woman and enter private...
Andy Stanley, a clearly-defined false teacher, has faced a well-deserved backlash from conservative Christians for his unorthodox and deviant teachings on various subjects such as biblical interpretation, theology, and the role of the church. His approach, which is to...

It's beyond fascinating to watch the progressive left act like they have some kind of moral high ground by pretending to abstain from politics all the while, they are demonstrably shilling for the liberal agenda. But to see those who claim Christ spend their time...
I will be dealing here with some views among Mormons which have changed over time. As I will mention, past doctrines on race have since been repudiated. In no way can anything here be said to represent the personal views of any current Mormon. In the...
J.D. Greear has been a completely different kind of president than any other Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) president in history. Greear's political and theological progressive bent can be compared to that of the current Pope of the Roman Catholic Church who has...

In this episode, I rant about Joe Carter’s article at the (anti) Gospel Coalition and entertain the question, does Joe Carter really care about your sanctification where politics is concerned or does he care about something else far more troubling?
Michael Gerson is a contributor to the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) led by Democrat, Russell Moore, and Gerson is highly promoted on the SBC-funded ERLC website, has appeared in several podcasts with Moore, and is also heavily...

Christianity today wants churches to reduce the stigma of divorce. Marriages that end in divorce are already nearly equally as common as marriages that do not end in divorce. According to statistics, up to 45 percent of first marriages end in divorce and second and...
Today marks Super Bowl LIV, the 54th annual NFL championship game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs. How do I know that? Well, to be honest, I googled it. What I do know, however, is that the culture surrounding the professional sport has seen...

I like our president. He's a good politician and stands up to the establishment like none we've seen in a long time. While I'm not on board with all of his policies, most of them are certainly better than any of the Democratic alternatives. With that disclaimer, I...

The early beginnings of liberation theology can be traced to Latin America in the 1960s. The thrust of this movement began as a result of young Catholic and Protestant theologians reflecting on the people’s life of faith within the context of the people’s resistance...
