Back in 2012, I faced a firestorm in Florida. I got caught in the crossfire of my peers in other church pulpits and of parishioners in my own, as well as in other church pews. Surprisingly, what put me in the crosshairs of both clergy and laity was a Scriptural stand I felt forced to take. I publicly and unapologetically taught that Christians were biblically prohibited from voting for Mitt Romney for president. 

Now, my teaching that Bible believing Christians could not vote for Mitt Romney for president, was definitely not an endorsement of Barack Obama, for whom Bible believing Christians had plenty of reasons not to punch their ballots. Furthermore, it had little to do with the fact that Mitt Romney was obviously, as his .........

Democrats, like Hillary Clinton and Stacey Abrams, who’ve perennially protested lost elections, have suddenly and surprisingly become passionate proponents and self-appointed protectors of our elections. Indeed, they condemn anyone who questions the integrity of an election, as they once did repeatedly and routinely themselves, as an insurrection, threatening to unravel the very fabric of our democracy. Never mind that ours is a representative republic and not a democracy, any questioning of our elections, no matter how fraught they are with abnormalities and irregularities, is forbidden by Democrats under the guise of insurrection. To dare to raise a single question about an election, makes you an inciter of sedition and will send an.........

In spite of the strife and stress of these perilous times of the last days, the saints have good reason to be thankful on this Thanksgiving Day. Not only should we be thankful for all Christ has done, but also for all He is. Every good gift, including the gift of God, which is eternal life, has been graciously given to us from the nail-scarred hand of Him who is our all in all. Still, as Scripture teaches, there are other reasons why we should have no misgiving about today's Thanksgiving.

Every verse in the Bible is important. If it wasn't, it wouldn't be in the Bible. God would not have put it in His Word. There are, however, some verses in Scripture that stand out to us as quite extraordinary. One such verse is I ............

There are no exaggerations in the divinely inspired Word of God. When the Scripture says that "the love of money is the root of all evil" (1 Timothy 6:10), it is not exaggerating. It is true! For proof, just look at the recent visit of China's communist dictator Xi Jinping to "San Franfeces," where California's pooper scooper Governor Gavin Newsom finally transformed the City by the Bay, which he had allowed to become an outhouse for the homeless, back into its former self. Of course, Newsom, by his own admission, did not cleanup the poop covered sidewalks of his state's filthy and foul homeless privy for taxpaying San Franciscans, but for an evil Chinese tyrant, whose evils include the tyrannizing of the ............

Do you remember when Margaret Thatcher, the Iron Lady, said to former President George H. Bush, "Don't go wobbly on me now, George"? Well, we've definitely got a wobbler in the White House today. 

Although he started off talking tough, promising to unwaveringly stand with Israel in their war against the bloodthirsty terrorists of Hamas, Joe Biden quickly wavered and started soft-pedaling weasel worded equivocations. For instance, he started calling for humanitarian pauses in the fighting, which would aid and abet Hamas. While he insisted that these pauses were not equivalent to ceasefires, he failed to distinguish any difference between the two, since such a distinction is nonexistent. Our prevaricating .........

Several people have shared a post or spoken with me about a post that misquotes Luke 21:20. According to the post, Jesus said, in His answer to His disciples' question about the coming destruction of Jerusalem's temple, "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by enemies on all sides, look up your deliverance is near." However, according to Luke 21:20, here's what Jesus actually said, "And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh." The "armies" Jesus spoke of were those of Titus the Roman, who sacked Jerusalem in 70 AD and destroyed its temple. This, according to Jesus, would be done in the "days of [God's] vengeance," which would be ......

God has had only two human witnesses in all of human history—Israel, God's chosen people, the Jews, and the church, God's elect people, Christians. According to Revelation 11:1-13, an end-time antisemitic and antichrist world will put God's two witnesses, Jews and Christians, in its crosshairs. Furthermore, it will breakout in world-wide celebration at the assumed annihilation of both, exchanging gifts with one another in what could be described as the devil's Christmas. Yet. the two witnesses, together at the end of time in one body, which is the church, will be raised up and called up into heaven, before God's wrath begins to be poured out on an antisemitic and antichrist end-time world.

Irony of ironies, the Pentagon argues that states’ abortion restrictions harm military readiness, despite the fact that abortion has claimed more American lives than the total number of American fatalities in all the wars we’ve ever fought. In addition to this absurdity, is this travesty, over a year after it stated unequivocally that abortion restrictions have "readiness, recruiting, and retention implications" for our military, the Pentagon has now been forced to admit that it has absolutely no evidence to confirm this claim. Obviously, this uncorroborated claim has nothing to do with military readiness, but is nothing but an undercover political attack upon abortion restrictions.  

In a rare instance .........

As the war in Israel intensifies, increasing the danger of it escalating into a wider conflict, even a global one, I see a haunting scriptural specter hanging over it. It is the incredible ancient prophecy of Gog and Magog. While much of our world sees the Scripture as an old antiquated relic, without relevance in our sophisticated modern-day world, I see its prophetic timelines in today’s headlines. Indeed, I am convinced that the only way to truly understand our times, is to understand the Bible, both its Old and New Testaments. For instance, to see the current conflict in the Middle East through the prism of Bible prophecy, enables one to understand that it is but a harbinger of a far greater conflict that is soon to come.

As I've taught for years, much to the chagrin of my fellow evangelicals, the evangelical church in America has been prostituting itself to the Republican Party for decades. Much like African-Americans, who repeatedly punch their ballots for Democrats, only to be betrayed by those same Democrats, once they’re elected to office, the evangelical church has been repeatedly betrayed by elected Republicans, after being used by Republicans to get themselves elected. According to Scripture, the church, the bride of Christ, is in this world to be used by Christ alone, and only to further His cause and to glorify His name. Therefore, it should never prostitute itself to a political party, to be used to further its cause and the political .........
