When James Dobson announced that a friend of his had led Donald Trump to “accept Christ,” some questions niggled at my mind – in spite of the fact that I hope Trump is saved – for real. I mean, wouldn’t it be great if Donald Trump really did become a Bible-believing, repentant, Christ-following Christian? I […]

Trump announces new “Christian” Advisory Committee
Uh-oh. Donald Trump has put together a team of advisors to help him win the Evangelical er, ecumenical vote. All candidates and presidents have religious advisors (Jim Wallis for President Obama, Rick Warren for Marco Rubio; Bill Hybels for President Bill Clinton, presumably so they don’t say something to offend their voting base. (And you […]
Why Don’t Republicans Name the Enemy?
For those of us in a discernment ministry, a better question to ask is: Why don’t Christian leaders name the enemy? But this is not about cowardly Christian luminaries who are averse to naming names because they fear man far more than they fear God; it’s about the Grand Old Party, the party of conservative […]
New Chicago Schools Bathroom Policy Proves Liberals’ Extreme Agenda
In a piece I posted earlier this week entitled, Small Acts of Cowardice are Destroying Our Culture, I stated the following: David French of National Review reminds us of the sad truth that “cultures are won and lost through tiny victories and defeats, and for a generation, the vast majority of then victories have gone to the left.” […]
Transgender Activists Put Ideology Above Safety and Well-Being of Young People
Thanks largely to the mainstream media’s biased reporting, most people are unaware that the controversial bathroom bills in South Dakota and North Carolina actually approved a generous accommodation to transgendered students. According to Peter Sprigg of CNSNews, “The South Dakota bill regarding school bathrooms, HB 1008 required ‘reasonable accommodation’ in the form of ‘a single-occupancy restroom, a unisex restroom, or […]
Evangelicals Divided: A Movement Fractured, Part 2
By Marsha West In part one I examined the term “evangelical” and laid out what true evangelicals believe and why they believe it. Admittedly the movement has evolved largely because of pragmatism – whatever works. Pragmatism has resulted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ that’s set forth in the scriptures being watered down and a […]
7 Mountain Politics and Theology
What is “7 Mountains” theology? Supposedly there are “7 mountains” of global society – Media, Government, Education, Economy, Religion, Entertainment and Family. Conquering these areas of influence is the key to taking a nation for the kingdom of God. The 7 Mountain mandate is the brainchild of the Dominionist movement. Over the years Dominionists have gone […]
Evangelicals Divided, A Movement Fractured, Part 1
By Marsha West Evangelicalism as a movement is rushing headlong toward theological ambiguity, which is another way of saying apostasy. ~ Michael Horton The failure of modern evangelicalism is the failure to understand the holiness of God. ~ R.C. Sproul At one time the word evangelical was used to differentiate Protestantism from Roman Catholicism and […]
Um, about that “jesus” Glenn Beck believes in…
Uh-oh, this report will perhaps open some eyes of those who say Glenn Beck may surely be an undercover Christian, or that he may at least be close to accepting the truth about his false religion from those evangelicals who allegedly are sharing it with him. No, Beck knows exactly whom he worships, and it […]
Pope Francis calls Donald Trump “not Christian” over wall stance
Ironically this is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Many Protestants believe that Pope Francis isn’t a true Christian either. Why? Because he teaches a false gospel. (See our White Paper on the RCC). That aside, the Pope of Rome has no business injecting his personal views into American politics the way […]
