‘Manufacturing Extremism’: Southern Poverty Law Center Indicted By Federal Grand Jury, Beginning Long Overdue Accountability

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said the indictment “is a welcome development, especially if it marks the beginning of the end” of the SPLC’s “long pattern of misrepresentation and harm.” In his statement released Tuesday, he continued, “For years, the SPLC has used its platform to label and target organizations with whom it disagrees, often blurring the line between legitimate concern and ideological attack. That kind of reckless characterization doesn’t just damage reputations, it has put lives at risk.”

Living In A Culture That Silences Biblical Truth

In recent years, Christians have discovered the sting of cancel culture. Ours has become a society exactly like the one Isaiah described in his day: A generation that calls evil good and good evil, which substitutes darkness for light and light for darkness, bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. If you’re a Bible-believing follower of Christ today, you could get canceled.

Where The Church Stands On Israel And Its Future Is Much More Than A Simple Theological Disagreement

What we believe about Israel and its future is of utmost importance. No church is neutral on the matter of Israel’s place in Bible prophecy. Many pastors say that such matters pertaining to the end times are of lesser significance than other more weighty matters of the faith. In my experience, however, they are the most aggressive in promoting the church as the new Israel and the least tolerant of those who disagree with them on this topic. Even so, some might ask, “What’s the big deal?”

Biblical Authority And Limits: The True Meaning Of The ‘Separation Of Church And State’

This is the proper understanding of the separation of church and state: civil leaders must not assume spiritual authority, and spiritual leaders must not surrender moral authority. It protects the church’s independence so it can speak truth to power — and it restrains the state from assuming spiritual authority it does not possess.

The Biden Administration Weaponized The Law Against Christians, Pro-life Groups, Explosive DOJ Report Uncovers

The Justice Department’s “Weaponization Working Group”—a team created under the Trump administration to examine whether federal law was used in a biased or politically motivated way—reviewed more than 700,000 internal communications, case files and prosecutorial decisions tied to enforcement of the FACE Act.

No Global Flood?: Influential Voices Are Leading Many To Abandon The Authority Of God’s Word

And yet despite the absolute clarity of Scripture, so many scholars, Christian leaders, and others still insist the flood could have been local. That’s not because of the text—it’s because they have already adopted the idea of millions of years of slow and gradual processes. Man’s interpretation of geology is now the authority, not the Word of God. It’s so discouraging to see men like Dr. Ross and Eric Metaxas influencing so many people to abandon the authority of God’s Word and instead adopt man’s word as they reinterpret the clear teaching of Scripture. It’s an attack on biblical authority.

Radical Groups Are Ready To Pour In Millions To Block Any Future Trump Supreme Court Nominee

There are no vacancies on the U.S. Supreme Court at the moment, and therefore no nominee pending. But radical groups are ready to pour in millions of dollars to block anyone nominated to the Court by President Trump. Demand Justice put out a statement last week announcing the “launch of a $3 million campaign to oppose an anticipated Trump Supreme Court nomination this year—before a nominee is even named.”

State of the Bible Report Highlights Growing Biblical Illiteracy Among Americans

These numbers are more than dry statistics that vary slightly from year to year. They should be a giant alarm bell alerting Americans to a sense of urgency over their spiritual danger. The reality is, reading only part of the Bible leaves one dangerously vulnerable to false teaching. Granted, reading a little Scripture is better than reading no Scripture at all. But it is also true that Satan — and false teachers who follow his example — loves to take small doses of God’s word and distort them into something false.

Treasury Secretary Sounds The Alarm, Warns AI Tools Like ‘Mythos’ Pose Major Threat To Financial Cybersecurity

This month, the AI giant, Anthropic, introduced a new AI agent known as Mythos. It searches out security vulnerabilities in other systems. And it’s apparently better at finding them than its makers had expected. It may be the most dangerous piece of computer software ever built. Anthropic says it’s too dangerous to release to the public — a claim no AI company has ever made before.

Why Revelation Matters: God Alone Can Foretell The Future And He Does So With 100 Percent Accuracy

Revelation reveals and reaffirms many of the great doctrines of Scripture. Revelation is theologically thick. It displays the sovereignty and holiness of God. It teaches us that God is in control, that He has a plan that He is bringing to fulfillment. It reveals that God alone can foretell the future and that He does so with 100 percent accuracy.

Disturbing Hostility: Universities Are Training Young Americans To Stamp Out Free Speech

The specific findings from the survey are more disturbing than the grades themselves. According to the report, one in three students now believes violence is sometimes acceptable to stop a campus speech. While students themselves are willing to silence perspectives they dislike, they believe they’re behaving consistently with what they see. Only 36 percent of students believe their administration would protect speech it found offensive. 

The Spread Of The Gospel During The World’s Darkest Hour

For those who hold a Biblical worldview, it is obvious that mankind’s darkest hour will soon fall upon the world. I speak, of course, of the Tribulation Period. Although God’s undiluted wrath will be poured out upon the earth, what we also bear witness to in the Scriptures is the fact that He will also shine His glorious light on the world as His message of the impending Millennial Kingdom is shared to all people.

Who Is A Jew?: A Clever Feat Of Theological Gymnastics Has Deeply Confused The Church

The Jews are a unique and separate people, the physical descendants of the patriarch Jacob, whose name God changed to Israel. When Gentiles become believers, they do not become children of Jacob—nor should they want to. Jews and Gentiles who place their faith in Messiah Jesus for salvation become new creations—members of the body of Christ, which is the church.

With Enough Distortion, People Can Exploit The Bible To Justify Any Position

In a way, people can use the Bible to justify any position they want. It happens all the time. They do this by taking verses out of context, quoting only part of a verse, claiming that the meaning only applied in a past culture, and so on. The governor of Kentucky (Andy Beshear) recently used the Bible to supposedly justify his position on supporting transgender surgeries and hormone treatment for minors who claim to be transgender.

In-Depth: Evolution Is Running Out of Options — Denying Design Is Indefensible

Even though they are running out of options, the story of evolution is their foundational belief and doctrine because, without it, they could not justify their entire ideology. So despite the inescapable evidence of design in nature that is becoming more evident with each new study, some evolutionists are assigning God-like powers to mindless matter and positing that it can somehow think and plan.

What This World Is Coming To: The Urgent Need For The Church To Understand And Teach Bible Prophecy

Much of this disregard (even though the Bible consists of more than 27 percent prophecy) is the fault of the people in the pews, who genuinely call Jesus Christ their Lord, but have little interest in personal Bible study. At least an equal share of blame for not paying attention to the prophetic signs of the times must be placed with the pastors whose flocks receive little or no teaching about biblical prophecy, for which the stage is being set in every direction we look.

‘It’s Billy Graham’s Fault’: Democrat Congressional Candidate Lambasted Evangelicals For Creating The ‘White Patriarchy’

When bested in debate, progressives often retreat to the safe and comfortable ground of ad hominem attacks, accusing their opponents of racism, sexism, and Nazism. In 2023, Lutheran "minister," Iowa representative, and now congressional candidate Sarah Trone Garriott (D), repeated all the same attacks with her own unique twist sure to provoke head-scratching: “It’s Billy Graham’s fault.”

Despite The Catholic Church’s Desperate Efforts, You Cannot Separate The Apostles From Their Jewishness

Newsflash: The apostle Simon Peter was not a Roman Catholic. He did not consider Rome his homeland, and he certainly did not understand himself to be the founder of anything like the papacy. Over the centuries, the church’s appropriation of Jesus and the apostles has muddied the waters of truth, leading many professing Christians to forget that Christianity began with Judaism.

President Trump Publishes Powerful Private Letter From Franklin Graham: ‘The Only Way To Heaven Is Through The Shed Blood Of Jesus’

Since returning to office, the president has made frequent public statements, often in a witty tone, about where he will spend eternity. These remarks weighed heavily on the hearts of Christians, including evangelist Franklin Graham, who wanted the President to understand that, through Christ, the answer to the question and assurance of eternity is not beyond anyone's reach.

As The False Gospel Of Marxism Gains Steam, Christians Must Stand On The Truth

A false gospel rooted in Marxism has gained massive popularity, placing increasing pressure on Christians. We sense this pressure in the rise of cancel culture, where Christians are being censored, fired, or arrested for upholding their biblical beliefs. We feel it in the prevalence of “woke” messages that label Christians as oppressors who must be silenced.

Utter Madness: Progressive Left Spends Palm Sunday Weekend Raising A Fist Against Biblical Truth

There was a time when the week leading up to Easter would spark reverence and reflection throughout the Judeo-Christian Western world. It's the most important week on the Christian calendar, starting with Palm Sunday. Therefore, it was very instructive to see how prominent left-wing figures across the West spent this Palm Sunday weekend.

Succumbing To A Secular Culture: A Staggering 1% Of Gen Z Americans Hold A Truly Biblical Worldview, Report Finds

Yet rather than dwelling on the past, Munsil turned the focus to the future — and what he described as far more concerning: “the percentage drops with each generation.” Among Baby Boomers and Gen X, about 7% hold a biblical worldview. That number falls to just 2% for Millennials — 1 in 50. And for Gen Z (ages 18–22), it plummets to a staggering 1% — only one in 100 — of Americans who “are thinking and living biblically.”

Artificial Intelligence Misquotes The Bible Up To 60% Of The Time

Many of these changes are minor—commas in the wrong place or minor word shifts—but this is the Word of God we’re talking about. Even the details matter. Jesus made this clear when he said, "For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished" (Matthew 5:18). As the YouVersion CEO said, “For Bible translation, every word and punctuation is meaningful to Scripture translation.”

A Digital Tower Of Babel: Artificial Intelligence And Four Millennia Of Human Pride

Many technologists speak openly about building AI systems capable of organizing the world’s knowledge and improving upon human decision-making. Some envision a “global brain” — a distributed intelligence capable of managing complex systems better than elected governments or trained specialists. The ambition is striking in its scope and strikingly familiar in its spirit: “Let us make a name for ourselves.” Human pride has not fundamentally changed in four millennia. The materials have simply improved.

Ignoring Prophetic Warnings: Those Who Laugh At Jesus’ Coming Are Fulfilling Bible Prophecy

I was on a phone-in radio program in Los Angeles where one of the other guests was a university religion professor who didn’t believe that Bible prophecy was relevant. He also didn’t believe that the Bible was inspired by God. As a result, we had a little bit of a debate. And as the conversation progressed, I said, “You know, you say you don’t believe in the Bible, but in reality, you’re a fulfillment of Bible prophecy.”

Never Before Has The Word Of God Been So Readily Available… And Neglected

Copies of God’s Word are exceedingly plentiful. Most of us have several Bibles lying around our houses. We can access any Scripture verse from our phones in an instant. We have a privilege that so many believers throughout history could only dream of: holding God’s Word in our hands and reading it regularly. And yet, we frequently neglect this privilege.

Wayward Theology Or Blatant Unbelief: When Christians Dismiss Israel’s Role In Bible Prophecy

The harm that this teaching causes extends far beyond the walls of the churches where it’s proclaimed. The belief that the church, rather than Israel, fulfills all of God’s kingdom promises to the Jewish people breeds antisemitism among Christians, which far too often spills over into the unbelieving world. We understand Satan’s hatred of Israel and the Jewish people that’s becoming increasingly evident in the unbelieving world, but its presence among believers is inexcusable at best.

How Will Israel Change When Jesus Inaugurates The Millennial Kingdom?

When the Jewish people joyfully acknowledge Jesus as King and He reigns during the Millennial Kingdom, gladness will replace groaning and rejoicing will replace rejection. Enemies will no longer threaten His people, nor will disaster ever strike the nation again. In fact, not only will the remnant rejoice over God but God will rejoice over the remnant.

Undercover Investigation Finds Voter Fraud Scheme Targeting Homeless In LA, Offering Cash, Cigarettes, And Marijuana In Exchange For Signatures

The video, released by O’Keefe Media Group and led by James O’Keefe, shows undercover journalists posing as homeless individuals in the Skid Row area. The footage claims to capture 28 separate instances of petition circulators offering incentives such as cash, cigarettes, and marijuana in exchange for signatures.

Mankind May Strive To Bring About ‘Utopia,’ But Only Christ Can Achieve True Peace And Justice On Earth

Nowhere does Scripture teach that, through the acts of mankind, the world will gradually morph into a state of perfection. Instead, God’s Word says the opposite: As time advances, wars will devastate the planet, famine will lead to starvation and economic woes, and true peace will be unattainable. Even today, with all the amazing advancements in global technology and communication, the world is slipping into a state of dystopia.

Theological Amnesia: The Danger Of The Church Forgetting Israel

When the church forgets Israel, arrogance often follows—and arrogance breeds antisemitism. Church history bears painful witness to this. Yet antisemitism is again on the rise. Replacement theology, by denying Israel’s place in God’s plan, risks fueling this hatred anew. Antisemitism is an affront to God’s heart. His love for Israel has never expired, and Genesis 12:3 still stands: “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you.” Antisemites hate what God loves.

Following Minnesota Corruption Scandal, Trump Launches Anti-Fraud Task Force, Vance To Lead

Trump pointed to claims of fraud in Minnesota, estimating $19 billion have been taken from federal programs throughout the state. He said Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and U.S. Rep. Illhan Omar could be complicit in the fraud. “If we found half of the fraud that’s taking place in this country, and I think you have a chance of doing that, we would have much more than a balanced budget,” Trump said.

A Developing Crisis: Children Are Asking AI Questions Previous Generations Brought To Parents And Pastors

Beneath that surface lies a profound danger. These systems are not counselors. They have no conscience, no soul, no accountability before God or man. They are prediction engines trained on the assumptions of a secular digital culture — and they are increasingly filling a role that God designed for parents, pastors, and human community.
