(New York, NY — The Dissenter) The Roman Catholic Church of St. Francis of Assisi in New York City is preparing to celebrate a “Pre-Pride Festive” mass, aligning itself with the city's Pride festival. The parish, which has long touted its LGBT “ministry,” promotes...
When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you. —Winston ChurchillIn the Christian world, there is a massive assault on denominations and doctrinal divide. After all, we’re all believers and followers of Jesus Christ, right? If so, what’s the...
Continuing in our Rejecting Modern Idols series, today, we move to another topic. In the Old Testament, we see a repeated pattern of God’s people adopting various forms of pagan idolatry which always led to judgment. Today, we see a similar pattern in the rise of...
Two years after the overturning of the most egregious Supreme Court ruling in American history, Roe v. Wade, we've witnessed the double-edged effects of such a horrific stain on our nation. And after overturning it, we're still seeing the lasting effects of Roe v....
Turning Point USA (TPUSA) under Charlie Kirk has long presented itself as a defender of conservative values, but a closer examination reveals a troubling trajectory—one that increasingly waters down Christianity and dilutes the Gospel. TPUSA isn't just a political...
The modern church landscape is rife with wolves in sheep's clothing, those charlatans who twist the Scriptures for their own personal gain. It's not just the galling falsehoods they preach—whether it be the prosperity gospel, egalitarianism, the New Apostolic...
Southern Baptists either never learn from their mistakes or are willfully ignorant of the consequences of compromising, or giving even an inch, on doctrinal purity. The recent defeat of the Mike Law amendment at the SBC annual meeting is a glaring testament to this...
Sometimes, when I run across such nonsense, I get angry. But in this case, I can only feel absolute pity for such utter foolishness. In fact, it appears we've stumbled into a theological comedy sketch, masquerading as deep biblical “insight.” "Apostle" Sharon Nesbitt...
In the Old Testament, we see numerous examples of societies adopting practices that are abominable in the sight of God. One such practice was the sacrifice of children to false gods. In our modern era, this same spirit of rebellion against God's design is manifesting...

As I was doing my morning reading, I was pointed to this article at Religion News Service (RNS) praising and celebrating the abomination of drag performances in churches, particularly, in the pulpit. This abomination is a clear indication of the modern professing...
As we've reported many times already, the popular television show, The Chosen, claims to be biblically based but is anything but Christian. Dallas Jenkins, the show's creator, has claimed that Christians and Mormons worship the same Jesus—an absurd claim that even the...

From Caleb Lines’ latest sermon: Mary gets to choose and Mary chooses to carry the Messiah. Mary says, let it be in the story, which means that Mary is afforded a choice that so many people in our society today are no longer afforded. The biblical call is to increased...
I indulged myself in a few episodes of Ancient Aliens on YouTube over the weekend—not because I buy into it, but because I find it fascinating to see the great lengths people will go to try to make sense of our existence and the world we live in. Something I found...
