America's largest city, our financial capital, is in deep trouble—and what is happening in New York City right now could have major implications for every American. What we are seeing is an unholy alliance of Islamists and socialists rising to political power. These anti-American radicals are no longer just fringe rabble-rousers and street agitators—they are now heading to the halls of Congress.

The stakes for home educators just got much higher. In a ruling that exposes the ideological intolerance now driving education policy in much of the world, a Brazilian court just sentenced a loving mother and father to 50 days in prison for home education.
Their crime? Homeschooling and declining to teach the far-left Brazilian regime’s curriculum on “gender and sex education” along with “tolerance and diversity.” Yes, really. But critics are speaking out as the horror makes headlines around the world and especially across the United States.
The majority of those who believe in aliens have an evolutionary worldview. In that view, life evolved on earth, so given enough time, life must’ve evolved somewhere else too. We aren’t unique; we aren’t special—so it must be fairly easy, given enough time, to make life. But I reject that worldview because I start with God’s Word. People desperately want aliens to exist so they can know they aren’t alone and that there’s something else out there. But there is someone else out there—the Creator God.
A study, which assessed more than 300 books curated by children’s publishers for America’s 250th anniversary, found that public libraries and publishers are ignoring Christianity’s role in the U.S. founding, focusing instead on progressive history. “No books about the Pilgrims as religious refugees,” the report reiterated. “No books about the Great Awakening. No books about religious liberty as a founding principle. No books about the faith lives of the founders. No books about the Black church's role in American history, even on lists heavy with Black history content. No books about faith-motivated
How strange it must be for a pastor to stand at a funeral and preach the reality of heaven — even though he mostly dismisses the book from which he preaches. What a terrible burden it must be for a man or woman to make himself or herself God’s judge — choosing which of God’s words should be kept and which should be discarded based on the shallow, always-changing moral fashions of the age. Millions of churchgoers are led by people who subordinate God’s Word to the whims of a sick culture.
To understand the age in which we live, it is important to understand the ideas behind secular progressivism and, more importantly, what its aspirations are. After all, whether the majority of people realise it or not, secular progressivism has the stated goal of organising social life (with or without your consent) toward explicitly chosen goals. Those goals, however, put it in direct conflict with Biblical truth. The major flaw in secular progressivism is its belief that preference trumps truth. Because the maxim of this ideology is that “all preferences are created equal,” any belief which competes with somebody’s “preference” is treated in one of two ways. Either it must be suppressed (usually with the backing of government or media institutions), or it must be branded as a private hobby which is acceptable in the home or inner thought life but not welcome in the public square where others may be influenced by it.
It is God alone who predicts the future. Prophecy is one of God’s signatures that tells us that we can trust in Him and His Word. It is what separates the Bible from all other religious writings in the world. But if we consistently use allegorical hermeneutics, as Charles Ryrie points out, then in effect what we have just done is reduce the Bible to nothing more than a work of fiction. How tragic! With hermeneutics like that, it is no wonder so many people want nothing to do with Bible prophecy. It is no wonder pastors refuse to preach and teach events concerning the future, and it is no wonder it can be so hard to understand.
As other dictators have done, he took over the churches and used their organizational structure to influence the citizens—though the teachings allowed were anything but biblical. William Shirer, who chronicled the Nazi regime, stated that “the Nazi regime intended eventually to destroy Christianity in Germany” and substitute paganism. Hitler’s vision for Germany was defined in a thirty-point program for the “National Reich Church,” which “categorically claims the exclusive right and the exclusive power to control all churches within the borders of the Reich.”
And this kind of moral relativism is what will happen to every denomination that abandons God’s Word as the authority and embraces man’s word instead. If God’s Word is not the authority, ultimately anything goes because morality becomes subjective and arbitrary based on human opinion (man’s word).
“This is a great win for DoorDash’s employees and shareholders. Our clients see themselves as stewards of their assets, thereby seeking to build relationships with the companies they own. We’re very grateful to DoorDash for their willingness to find a solution which worked for both the company and our clients who are shareholders. We continue our year-round efforts to secure more changes like this for the shareholders we represent,” said Pia de Solenni, vice president of corporate engagement at IWP Capital.
To the believer, strange objects in the skies are secondary to Who is coming out of the sky very soon, to receive us in the clouds and to take us home. Nonetheless, there is a fever-pitched interest in aliens since President Trump released the long-awaited UFO files. Almost 2 billion people have accessed them. Stephen Spielberg wanted to make a movie that explains the unexplainable—yet the UFO phenomena is very explainable!
Some “churches” promote full inclusion of every sexual desire, while others hold fast to what God says about sexuality. But what about the options in between obvious heresy on the one side and the historic biblical position on the other? In the middle, lie the more insidious errors because these positions claim to respect God’s Word, affirming its authority, while saying either (1) the act of homosexuality is sinful, but the identity and desire isn’t or (2) that homosexual “marriage” honors God if it’s a committed monogamous relationship.
A 2024 Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General report found that more than 448,000 unaccompanied minors were transferred from DHS custody to HHS between 2019 and 2023. The report stated that roughly 291,000 children were not issued notices to appear in immigration court, while another 32,000 failed to appear for scheduled proceedings.
Theodor Herzl, the father of modern Zionism, considered William Henry Hechler the first Christian Zionist. Herzl believed the Jewish people’s fate could no longer rest in the hands of nations that accepted them one minute and screamed “Death to the Jews” the next minute. The Jewish people, he believed, needed a homeland of their own. Hechler was as passionate as Herzl but for an entirely different reason. As a Christian, his hope was for Israel’s restoration, which he saw as rooted in Scripture. God promised to return the Jewish people to their ancient homeland, and Hechler believed Him.
Reports about the death of “climate” alarmism have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, obeying United Nations “climate” decrees is now officially “international law.” At least that is what two key UN entities and more than 140 national governments would like humanity to believe. In one of the most consequential developments yet for the global climate movement, the United Nations General Assembly voted to formally endorsed and “operationalize” a ruling by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) declaring that governments have a legal obligation to combat climate change.
As the world increasingly searches for answers in every direction except heaven, Christians must point people back to God's Word. The signs of the times are not merely revealing the approach of the antichrist. They are revealing humanity's growing desire for solutions apart from God. That is why the Church must remain vigilant. The spirit of antichrist is not only coming. It is already preparing the world to accept a counterfeit savior.
While the DOJ indictment of SPLC featured prominently in the hearing, the hearing went further. As FRC President Tony Perkins observed on “Washington Watch,” “Al Capone got charged with tax evasion, but everybody knew that wasn’t the extent of what he did.” In the same way, “this is a much broader conspiracy.” For the SPLC scrutiny has only begun. The DOJ indictment and a series of congressional hearings has only begun to scratch the surface of its shady dealings. The spotlight of public scrutiny will continue.
The case has renewed debate over so-called sanctuary policies, which generally limit cooperation between local law enforcement agencies and federal immigration authorities. ICE maintains that immigration detainers are the safest method for taking custody of criminal illegal aliens because transfers occur while suspects are already being held in secure facilities.
“We also have serious concerns about how California maintains its voter rolls. There are open questions about whether the state is promptly removing deceased voters, people who have moved, and individuals convicted of disqualifying felonies,” Essayli added. Nevertheless, he shared that California’s Secretary of State is actively refusing to allow the Department of Justice (DOJ) to audit the state’s voter rolls. “If California genuinely wants voters to trust its elections, it should open its records, not fight to keep them closed. What are they afraid of?”
Our customization culture tells us that we can have just about anything, exactly as we want it, as long as we’re willing to shell out the necessary dough. Unfortunately, many people try to carry that sense of privilege into their spiritual lives. They try to customize God.
Who stands to gain the most from this distortion of Scripture? The preachers who use the offerings to fund their high lifestyle. Like an imposter taking a heartfelt letter from a king to his royal subjects and twisting it for evil purposes, prosperity preachers take the Bible and twist it into a tool for abuse.
Human intelligence agents read newspapers from certain cities to learn about ship deployments, military promotions, and other military-related activities in those cities. The same information can be assimilated and assessed by AI within microseconds. AIs still make mistakes, but the technology is improving so fast that humanity can barely keep pace. Despite what it already does, AI is still in its infancy. We don’t know what capabilities it may eventually gain.
Federal prosecutors have expanded their case against the Southern Poverty Law Center, alleging in a superseding indictment filed Tuesday that donor funds were secretly used to support members of extremist organizations the group publicly claimed it was working to expose and combat.
Earlier this year, Barna Group (in partnership with Gloo) released new research which focused on the trends emerging in the field of faith and AI. That research revealed that nearly one in three U.S. adults – with the figure sitting at two in five among Gen Z and Millennials — say spiritual advice from AI is as trustworthy as advice from a pastor. My concern is that the worrying dependence upon AI for spiritual guidance will lead to people being tossed to and fro as the available data is changed. If you are going to outsource your Biblical worldview to data that is subject to change and manipulation, you are weakening your dependence on the Word of God and increasing your dependence on data which can be faulty.
While previous generations worried about globalization, outsourcing, or economic recessions, today's graduates face something far more personal: the possibility that the very careers they spent years preparing for may be transformed, or even eliminated, by intelligent machines. For many students, AI is not an exciting innovation. It is an existential threat. The question Christians should ask is not simply, "Why are students booing?" The deeper question is, "What does this reveal about the times in which we live?"
And we must not allow the “slow creep” of an anti-Judeo-Christian bias in our culture to smother the religious freedoms we have enjoyed for 250 years. It is still a battle worth fighting. But it will only be won if pastors in the pulpits are courageous, and Christians in the pews are engaged.
Did you know that you only have a few months—at most—left to live? Yes, that’s right, because a climate scientist from the University of Arizona predicted back in 2016 that the climate situation was so dire that in a mere decade he couldn’t imagine there being a single human being left on planet earth. Well, this year makes 10 years since he made that prediction . . . so are we all about to die from extreme temperatures not seen in “two billion years”?
All three of these approaches to Bible prophecy are monumentally dangerous (Rev. 22:19). God means what He says, and says what He means. While many venture into these positions out of ignorance, or the blind trust in a particular denomination, we must all understand our responsibility to rightly divide God’s Word, examining it with clarity and discernment. Bible Prophecy was lovingly given by God for a purpose. When we remove it, add to it, and twist it, we are making a significant mistake—one that not only affects our personal understanding, rewards in eternity, and walk with the Lord, but also our witness to the unsaved world.
A new study found that American Protestant Christians are increasingly less likely to talk about their faith with non-Christians and hesitant to discuss spiritual beliefs even with fellow Christians. The survey, called the “2025 State of Discipleship: Living Unashamed,” found that about one in six Protestant churchgoers in the U.S. agree that they are reluctant to tell non-Christians in their life that they are Christian. The Lifeway Research survey collected 2,130 responses and found that 30% of Protestant churchgoers say that many people they know are not aware that they are a Christian.
Alina Fernández, the daughter of former Cuban leader Fidel Castro, has declined to directly deny long-running speculation that former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau could be Castro’s son, reigniting a longstanding rumor that has circulated for years.
Legal representatives of the Queensland Government reportedly argued that Beale’s objection to the vaccine mandates was not protected religious activity but “Mr Beale’s subjective interpretation [of] parts of the Bible that he relies upon to support his personal choice to avoid vaccination.” In other statements made by Beale, the government’s position becomes clearer. What they are attempting to argue is that Beale’s objections do not constitute protected religious belief because Beale is relying on a personal Biblical interpretation rather than adhering to a specific church code of conduct.
As Christians living in a culture that is hostile to our faith, it is tempting for us to try to fit in and not stand out as people who really believe in Jesus, as people who hold certain values. But if you are a child of God, then don’t hide it. The Bible tells us, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God” (Romans 12:2).
We are living in an age where tolerance has become the supreme virtue of modern society. Governments promote it. Corporations market it. Schools teach it. Media platforms enforce it. Religious leaders increasingly preach it. At first glance, tolerance sounds noble. Christians are called to love people, show compassion, and treat others with dignity. But the modern definition of tolerance has evolved far beyond kindness or coexistence. Today’s version of tolerance demands something far deeper. Not merely accepting people… but affirming every belief system, lifestyle, ideology, and moral framework as equally valid.
