The Rise Of Generative AI Has Filled The Information Space With A New Form Of Propaganda

In our modern day, the inventive genius of man has perfected a machinery of communication which, through speeding up and extending the influence of information and ideas, has given propagandists an efficient system to bombard the masses with their message. However, the rise of generative AI has now filled the information space with a new, unique, and somewhat unwanted form of propaganda: "slopaganda."

Looking Beyond Today’s Lawlessness And Corruption To Our Ultimate Hope

We live at a time like no other; everywhere we look, we see signs telling us that the disasters of Revelation 6:1-8 are ever so close. The catastrophic events so far in 2026 point to the start of this time of judgment on the near horizon and, therefore, to Jesus’ soon appearing. If ever there was a time for excitement from the recognition that Jesus’ appearing is ever so close, this is it. Someday, perhaps very soon, our wait will end.

The Dangers Of The ‘Interfaith’ Movement—And Where The Bible Says It Is Heading

Revelation 17 describes “the great prostitute” who will wreak havoc in the last days. The prostitute is the image John uses to refer to the one-world religion that will dominate the end times. Because of the imagery John uses, it’s hard to say what the false religion will teach. But it’s likely that it will combine the teachings of various major existing religions. Or that it will just gloss over the differences between religions and declare them all to be equally valid. Sound familiar?

Christian Leaders Warn: Talarico’s Whole Platform Is Using The Bible To Support Godless Things

A video of Texas Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico calling Islam and Christianity “equal pathways to truth” resurfaced and has been making the rounds on social media, along with comments equating the God of the Bible with gods of other religions. But Talarico, who has been using his faith as a central part of his campaigning and was described by Politico as an “aspiring preacher,” seems to differ with Jesus.

Democrats Walk Back Support For House Candidate Who Wished Death To MAGA Supporters

Among the posts drawing attention was a message Headen published on X in August 2024, shortly after then-Vice President Kamala Harris became the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. “I’m so excited! Ready for the MAGAs to die off!!” she wrote. Another post appeared to advocate an attack on US soil, specifically targeting states with large conservative populations. “I think our only hope is an attack on US Soil … preferably Alabama, Louisiana … where the stupid people live,” Headen wrote. Another post suggested Trump supporters belonged in concentration camps.

‘Without Excuse’: From A Child To A Genius, Intelligent Design Is Common Sense

Let’s say you were walking along a beach and saw a message written in the sand: “Johnny, make sure you come home at 5:00 p.m. for dinner. See you then. I love you. Mom.” Could you ever believe that the order of the words happened by a random process—by sheer accident? Could you conclude that perhaps the incoming waves left the words written in the sand? I seriously doubt it. Their very order and their constructed logical coherency tell you that the message was written by an intelligent mind. However, atheistic evolution takes an even greater leap away from common sense than just believing that a wave created a logical message...

As ‘Replacement Theology’ Pervades Christian Circles, God’s Word Tells An Astonishingly Different Story

God used Jewish prophets to reveal Himself. His priceless words tell the true account of creation, how to live in civilized society (the Mosaic Law), and His intervention in the lives of ordinary people. He used Jewish eyewitnesses in the New Testament Gospels, Acts, the epistles, and the book of Hebrews (1:1–2) to reveal Himself in Christ. In Revelation, He prophetically detailed the end-times and how He specifically will use His Jewish witnesses. From beginning to end, God loves the Jewish people with an everlasting love (Jer. 31:3).

Don’t Be Fooled: James Talarico Is Not The Moderate He Desperately Portrayed Himself To Be On Fox News

It’s not possible to say that Talarico has moderated any of his views based on the statements made in this interview, but they are illuminating all the same. As a politician trying to win an election in challenging territory, he is executing the strategy of pivoting to the center. He understands how damaging these past radical statements on gender and sexuality are, and he is trying to erect a hasty shield to protect himself from incoming fire. Talarico may not have changed his beliefs, but he has certainly felt the heat.

Creating Villains: Is The Media Publishing News Or Crafting Elaborate Fairy Tales?

Have you ever noticed that there is a predictable pattern used by the media to introduce moral panic throughout a nation’s population? Enemies are cast, fear and anger swell, and swift retribution against the offending party is demanded. Of course, like any good tale, it begins with a villain. Christianity is the folk devil of the day, the media gets ahold of a story, distorted the message and provoked outrage in the community. 

UC Irvine Lecturer Makes Apparent Endorsement Of Violence Against Nick Shirley

A UC Irvine lecturer is under scrutiny after allegedly posting comments about a planned appearance by conservative journalist Nick Shirley that critics say appeared to invoke the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Karl Marx, The State, And The People: No False Gospel Is Complete Without A False god

No false gospel is complete without a false god—something humans set up in God’s place as the authority for truth. Though Marx (and many of his followers) espoused atheism, Marxism still harbors such false gods. One is the Marxist ideology itself, which communist regimes have revered as the ultimate “truth” to which people must conform. Two other interrelated false gods are the State and the People. Marx thought the State would be a temporary dictatorship comprised of the working class after their revolution. In theory, the State would eventually “wither away,” leaving the People to rule themselves as their own collective “god.”

Barna Research Finds Shared Concern Over AI Misinterpreting Scripture, Being Used To Determine Theology

Ask a chatbot about a disputed Bible verse and you may get a tidy answer. Ask America’s pastors about the AI response, and you get a warning: That tidy answer could be a real problem. The Barna Group recently highlighted findings from two surveys, conducted in partnership with Gloo for the State of the Church initiative, that land on a common concern. Artificial intelligence misinterpreting Scripture is a shared worry for 74% of U.S. adults. Among practicing Christians, the figure climbs to 83%, and for pastors, it reaches 94%. Even 77% of non-practicing Christians say they are concerned.

Socialism Relies On A Fairy-tale View Of Human Nature… And Christians Shouldn’t Be Naive

Socialism relies on an unrealistic, fairy-tale view of human nature. Its creators believed that humans are naturally perfect and that things like greed and selfishness are only caused by a bad economic system. If you just get rid of private property and let the government run things, they argued, everyone will suddenly become selfless and cooperative. The Bible completely destroys this idea. Scripture tells us that our problems don't come from external systems; they come from inside our own hearts. Jeremiah 17:9 says: "The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; who can understand it?"

Doom And Gloom: Apprehension Toward Bible Prophecy Is Built On A Profound Misunderstanding

Doom and gloom? That’s how many think of the book of Revelation. Oftentimes, Christians shy away from the study of prophecy because they believe it is too complex or irrelevant to spend time examining. But this is not true. Revelation gives us insight into things that will come to pass and helps us understand the things that are happening in our world. It gives us heavenly insight on what the future holds and changes our perspective as we go through our everyday lives.

Former Senior USCIS Immigration Officer Charged For Taking Almost $1 Million In Bribes For Citizenship

“Selling immigration benefits for cash is a blatant abuse of public trust,” United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Ryan Raybould said. “When a federal official puts a price tag on lawful status, we will intervene immediately. Public corruption will never be tolerated in the Northern District of Texas.”

Strong Christian Teens Are Feeling The ‘Tension’ Of The Culture’s Contrasting Worldview, Barna Research Highlights

The more these students dig into God’s Word and attempt to apply Scripture to the issues of our day, the more they notice that the two worldviews can’t be reconciled. Well, that’s Biblical! And that’s what I’ve found in my extensive travels when meeting many young people at the various events where I speak. When I travel and speak, I find teenagers are hungry for answers. They want to know how their faith applies to the issues of our day, they want answers for how they can know the Bible is trustworthy, and they want to be equipped to refute today’s secular thinking.

How A Nation Shaped By Biblical Truth Turned Into A Nation That Has Cast Aside The Influence Of The Church

From its founding, national leadership understood the critical need to recognize God and safeguard religious liberty; it was for this reason that America’s third President, Thomas Jefferson, wrote a letter to the Danbury Baptists, who were being persecuted by the state of Connecticut. It was from this letter that the words “building a wall of separation between Church & State” were first mentioned. Today, the words “separation between Church & State” have been stripped of all their original meaning. The phrase intended to prevent the government from stifling the church has been warped to insist that the church must be stifled from exerting any influence in government and the direction of political culture.

The Assertion That Bible Prophecy Is ‘Tertiary’ Has Caused Considerable Damage Within The Body Of Christ

The general assumption in many Bible-believing churches is that Bible prophecy is far too controversial and divisive for it to be taught. A few churches in my area openly state on their websites that the subject is “tertiary,” or less important than other matters of our faith. Sadly, most pastors and believers agree that Bible prophecy is tertiary, which Merriam-Webster defines as “of third rank, importance, or value.”

Court Packing Is Not ‘Reform’—It Is A Threat To Judicial Independence

There is a dangerous temptation in American politics to believe that every political problem can be solved by winning one more vote. If the Supreme Court issues decisions that a political party dislikes, why not simply change the number of justices and appoint new ones? Congress has the constitutional authority to determine the size of the Court, after all. Why not use that authority?

Nick Shirley Sues California For Squelching Freedom Of The Press

Investigative journalist Nick Shirley, whose reporting exposed government waste, fraud and harmful immigration policies, filed a lawsuit challenging a California law that criminalizes publishing images of or personal information about immigration support services providers.

The Transhumanist Push: Should We Update God’s Design?

Modern transhumanists are saying to the Lord of life, “Actually, I can do better.” We know God has condemned such impulses, for He condemned Satan for tempting Eve when he told her, “You will be like God” (Genesis 3:5). This may sound extreme, but it’s the kind of thinking that undergirds much of the transhumanist movement. Do Christians really support these goals? At what point does the desire to overcome the effects of the Fall go too far? It’s hard to say. Drawing a hard line between healing and enhancement will not be easy. But the question is important because human beings should not try to meddle with their very nature.

Utterly Unbiblical: ‘Pastor’ Claims God Had A Wife That Was Worshipped By Ancient Israel, Condemns Destruction Of Idols

What happens when you reject God’s Word as your authority and instead base your thinking on fallen man’s fallible word? Well, you might end up standing in a church pulpit and telling your congregation that God had a wife and that King Josiah was wrong for destroying the Asherah poles. Yes, this “pastor” really claims the Israelites worshipped Yahweh as God along with Asherah as a female god, and that no one had a problem with it for a very long time. He then bemoans how hard it must have been for the Israelite women and girls when King Josiah ordered the Asherah poles to be chopped down—who would they now look up to and pray to without a “queen of heaven”?

Forcing Radicalism On The Record: House GOP Push to Keep Supreme Court at Nine Justices Fails in Floor Vote

House Speaker Mike Johnson said the vote was meant to draw a clear line against court-packing efforts, warning that expanding the bench would turn the judiciary into another political battleground. “We will keep the nine,” Johnson said ahead of the vote, arguing that the nine-justice model has served the country well and should not be altered to satisfy partisan frustrations with recent Supreme Court rulings.

New York Governor And NYC Mayor Asked Not To Attend 9/11 Ceremonies

Giovanni Galante’s wife, Grace, was 29 and working on the 105th floor of the North Tower on 9/11. This summer he launched a petition asking the National September 11 Memorial & Museum to keep Mamdani out of the official 25th-anniversary ceremony. The petition doesn’t argue that a Muslim mayor is unfit because he is Muslim but that this particular mayor’s associations—and his way of talking about that horrid day—make his presence a wound rather than a tribute. “For 9/11 families,” Galante wrote, “this is not simply a public ceremony—it is a deeply personal day of mourning. The presence of individuals whose words or associations are perceived as conflicting with the solemn purpose of the event risks detracting from that focus and causing additional pain.”

Comparing Political Policies To Scripture: Why Christians Must Vote In The Midterm Elections

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, told Decision, “People should pay very close attention to state laws, those who are running to make those laws, the attorneys general in those states and the state elected officials. What’s happening at the state level is very important in our system—our federalist system—because the state laws become, as we’ve seen in recent years, a defense against the encroachment of bad federal policy.” The former Louisiana legislator added, “The state level is an opportunity to actually get strong pro-family, pro-life, Biblically aligned laws into place.”

‘We Are Legion’: Candace Owens And Her Audience Are Brazenly Giving Heed To The Doctrine Of Demons

There is tremendous online chatter spreading today that must be answered from an evangelical perspective. Self-proclaimed "Christians" who are, at best, confused theologically are spreading conspiracies, lies, rumors, and frankly tall tales. The sad thing is that these purveyors of confusion have influence, and their nonsense is paying off. Upon further examination, it becomes clear that these individuals—far from holding to Biblical truth—are giving heed to the demonic.

Without God At Its Foundation, Human Thought Becomes Increasingly Compromised

What happens when people see themselves as by-products of chance rather than design? What happens to their children and to their civilization? Communism happens. Totalitarianism happens. Freedom fades. Violence increases. Purpose and meaning disappear. Romans 1:18 says, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness.”

Tennessee AG Vows More Big-Tech Lawsuits after Landmark Meta Settlement

Tennessee Attorney General and Reporter Jonathan Skrmetti (R) plans to file “more litigation” against social media companies whose addictive platforms are harming children, he announced Thursday in an interview on “Washington Watch.” Skrmetti and his team helped lead a nationwide investigation against Meta, which resulted in the parent company of Facebook and Instagram reaching an unprecedented settlement.

Trump Admin Prepares Crackdown On ‘Bogus’ Far-Left Charities – SPLC, CAIR, Soros Group Targeted

The Trump administration is preparing a major tax crackdown targeting several prominent left-leaning nonprofit organizations, including the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), according to an exclusive report by the New York Post.

Recognizing The Role That Modern Technology Will Play In The Fulfillment Of Bible Prophecy

The scoffers of our day claim that we interpret prophecy with the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other. In other words, they argue that the news of our day determines what we believe about Bible prophecy. However, Jesus instructed us to watch for His coming, which necessitates evaluating current events in the light of what Scripture says about the last days. Might that also include recognizing the role that modern technology will play in the fulfillment of Bible prophecy? I think so.

Institutionalizing The Abandonment Of God: A Biblical Example Of How Christians Should Respond To Societal Rejection Of Truth

Abandoning truth is nothing new. It’s been around since the serpent deceived Eve with the question, “Did God really say…?” (see Genesis 3:1). What’s surprising is that despite the millennia which have passed, Satan’s methods of deception have not greatly changed. Elijah, one of the greatest prophets of the Old Testament. He was not the kind of guy you’d ever hear say to a group of listeners, “Let me tell you my truth.” Despite Elijah living 2,800 years ago, it’s amazing how similar many of the issues he faced in his world were to the ones we face today.

Tax-Funded ‘Scientists’ Suggest Dramatically Cutting The Human Population To Align With UN ‘Sustainable Development’ Vision

For Christians, there is an even more fundamental problem with the population-control worldview. God repeatedly commanded mankind to “be fruitful and multiply.” He calls children a “blessing from the Lord.” Government efforts to undermine that — especially when promoted through tax-subsidized advocacy masquerading as “science” — deserve exposure, condemnation, and defunding. Americans and free, civilized people everywhere should reject these lies and those who peddle them.

Hype, Hysteria, And False Predictions: New Climate Change Dashboard Shows… No Climate Change?

A Climate Change Dashboard that “follows the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) framework for detecting a change in climate in the context of internal variability. And what was the result? In terms of long-term change, there was no detected change in five of the eight categories. Anytime there’s a weather event—a hurricane, tornado, flood, heat wave, etc.—it’s always blamed on man-made climate change. But the data doesn’t support that hype!
