Andy Stanley's disdain for the Holy Scriptures is a well-established fact, and it is nothing new that he has been vocal in his condemnation of the inerrancy and authority of the Word of God. He has gone so far as to declare the Scriptures to be indefensible and...
The Old Testament is replete with examples of men and women who failed to abide by the commandments that God set forth for His creation, particularly as it pertained to worship. One such instance is that of Cain, the progeny of Adam and Eve, whose worship was rejected...
A.W. Tozer famously said that "A church that can not worship MUST be entertained." Much like Spurgeon's famous quote that we often repeat on this blog, Tozer echoes the sentiments that a time will come when instead of pastors feeding sheep, clowns will entertain the...
While Evangelicals -- and Southern Baptists in particular -- are all in on Black History Month to talk about what a great "Christian hero" Martin Luther King Jr. was, it's important to remember that King denied several essentials of the faith that placed him outside...
On the 94th birthday of Martin Luther King Jr, President Joe Biden delivered a sermon at the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, which is led by "pro-choice pastor" Senator Raphael Warnock. At the historic church, where King himself once preached, Biden's...
The entire purpose of the gospel is to glorify God in saving sinners from His wrath, to demonstrate His mercy and kindness juxtaposed against a backdrop of what would righteously be eternal damnation of all of our souls. But in God's wisdom, kindness, and grace, He...
Upon arrival, one is immediately enveloped in an aura of opulence and refinement. The entrance, adorned with lavish marble flooring and sparkling chandeliers, sets the tone for the sumptuous journey that lies ahead. The staff, dressed impeccably in crisp uniforms,...
The Word of God is like a vast ocean, deep and unfathomable, yet crystal clear and invigorating. It is the means by which we guard our hearts—the wellspring of life—quenching the thirst of the soul and nourishing the mind. For the man, born of water and of spirit, to...
The twisting of Scripture for personal gain is nothing new, but I have observed a rapidly growing and disturbing trend among politicians who claim to be Christians and religious leaders who support them, who attempt to reason that certain passages of Scripture hold...
As we find ourselves in the tumultuous and uncertain times of the church age, it is of utmost importance that we exercise discernment in discerning the truth of scripture from the plethora of falsehoods that seek to assail our faith. The great theologian and pastor...
Oh, the irony of it all! The Miss Universe contest, a pageant of beauty and elegance, was graced with the presence of the Ukrainian delegation, adorned in the most saccharine and sacrosanct of garbs. Draped in a costume of pure, unadulterated white and gold, they...
HB 1894, also known as the High Occupancy Vehicle and High Occupancy Toll Lane Exemption for Pregnant Women bill, is a piece of legislation that seeks to grant a pregnant person's fetus the status of a passenger in a car, thereby allowing the vehicle in which the...
The modern Evangelical church often presents what appears to be a vibrant and pulsating atmosphere, a facade brimming with the fervor of the congregation as they begin to assemble. The ambiance is thick with a sense of anticipation and expectation as the lights dim...
The sovereign, holy, righteous, and eternal God declares in Jeremiah 1:5, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations." The historic understanding of this passage in Biblical...
This is not satire, this actually happened. It is truly staggering and deeply concerning to hear the absurdity of the claims made by certain members of the Democratic party regarding the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. This legislation, passed by the...
Dear Mother, Made in the Image of God,I write to you today with a message of hope, a message that should pierce through the veil of despair that has enshrouded your heart, and bring forth a ray of light to guide you out of the dark abyss of guilt and shame. I...
The subject of Christian Nationalism has risen to the forefront of the current discourse on religious and political affairs, its very mention inciting a firestorm of passion and disagreement not unlike the tempestuous controversies that plagued the late pop icon,...
Let us imagine a man, a pastor, who forsakes the traditional trappings of his calling, forgoing the pulpit for a mere stool. He sits, not with the regal bearing of a man called by God to deliver his word, but with the slouching posture of a man worn down by the...
The doctrine of immanence holds that God is intimately and actively engaged in the world and the lives of human beings, rather than being detached and aloof. This doctrine posits that God is both transcendent and immanent, transcending human understanding yet present...
It is a criminal offense, high treason, against a Holy and righteous God that the liberal Protestant denominations have allowed drag queens to infiltrate their churches and defile their sanctuaries. These clowns, who flaunt deviant and sinful lifestyles for cash and...
The Enneagram, which is touted as a way–apart from the Scriptures–to gain insight into one’s “true self,” restoring balance and developing more desirable qualities to one’s personality and reaching a state of spiritual “freedom,” is a system of personality typing and...

On Thursday, the South Carolina Supreme Court made a disastrous decision, declaring that the state's ban on abortion after the detection of a fetal heartbeat, typically around six weeks of pregnancy, is a violation of the state's constitutional right to privacy. This...
I often write about churches that put on blasphemous performances, are irreverent, and in many ways, blaspheme the name of God with their overt self-promoting performances. And I also often write about churches that put homosexuals, queers, and transgender people in...
This video is absolutely unbelievable as it depicts a girl spewing heretical nonsense about forgiving the sins of one of her patients. This disgraceful display took place at the 2008 graduation for the students of Bethel School of Ministry. Is this the kind of...

Pastor David Hughes of Church by the Glades in Coral Springs, FL is little more than a stand-up comedian, running a so-called "church" that does nothing more than tickle the ears of lost people. In one Instagram post, Hughes stated "If there’s one thing we can...
The Protestant Reformation split the Western Christian Church into Protestant and Roman Catholic branches in the 16th century. It was driven by a desire for religious reform, objections to the pope's power and role, and the sale of indulgences, which allowed people to...
