Is Destructive Socialism In America’s Future? Not If We Reclaim Our Past

Last week, headlines were filled with reports of socialist candidates gaining ground in major American cities. Fifty years ago, that would have been almost unimaginable. Today, however, socialism is becoming an increasingly influential force within the Democratic Party. Is this America’s future? Perhaps we can find the answer by revisiting the course set by America’s Founders. In fact, it reaches back before the founding itself. In 1630, John Winthrop described the Massachusetts Bay Colony as “a city upon a hill.” He envisioned a people who understood they lived under a covenantal responsibility before God, a vision that profoundly shaped the character of the future nation.

The Real ‘American Dream’ Of George Washington Was Far More God-Honoring Than Many Have Been Led To Believe

Washington personally read the Bible and quoted the Bible. Those who deny America’s unique Christian roots will claim that many educated people in positions of prominence in the 18th century also quoted from the Bible. However, they also quoted from Greek and Roman authors of antiquity. Washington quoted almost exclusively from the Bible and applied its teachings to his personal life and role as a leader. The real American dream is far more God-honoring than what we have today. The true American patriot is working and praying that Washington’s vision for America will once again claim the hearts of Americans.

The Absurdity Of Gender Ideology: NBC News Places Trigger Warning On The Terms ‘Biological Male’ and ‘Biological Female’

Woke knows no limits on crazy. It seems every week brings new examples of how unstable some liberal minds can be. This week did not disappoint. On June 30th, the morning the United States Supreme Court handed down its landmark decision protecting female high school and college athletes from male intrusion, the NBC News’ TODAY show found it necessary to provide viewers with a trigger warning for why they were using the terms “biological male” and “biological female.”

Can We Still Ask God To Bless America When So Much Of The Culture Is In Open Opposition To Him?

Christians are under the kingship of Jesus first and foremost, but that does not negate the responsibilities of our earthly citizenship. We can make a difference in our own sphere of influence by being faithful where God gives us opportunities, and if every Christian did that, think how any country would change! We can still pray for God to bless America, but we should specifically pray for God to turn Americans’ hearts back to him and to recognize his authority in all the areas where the culture has increasingly rejected him.

Opening The Floodgates To Undermine The Sanctity Of Life: Germany’s Push To Decriminalize Abortion Faces Opposition

Germany’s Federal Constitutional Court officially ruled in 1975—and reaffirmed in 1993—that unborn children have a right to life. But since 2024, a campaign to decriminalize abortion in Germany has demanded the government reclassify the deadly procedure as a standard medical option covered by health insurance. This effort, however, has faced staunch opposition from those committed to protecting the lives of both mothers and their unborn children.

‘Male And Female’: It Took The Highest Court In The Land 45 Pages To Explain What Jesus Said In One Sentence

In Matthew 19, the Pharisees, always trying to trap Jesus, cornered Him on the subject of marriage and sexuality. He replied, “Have you never read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female?” This week, the U.S. Supreme Court, in its majority opinion on women’s sports and the definition of sex, spent 45 pages explaining that “females and males have inherent physical differences relevant to athletic performance.” What Jesus said in one sentence took the highest court in the land 45 pages to explain.

God’s Timeline Directing Global Politics: The US-Iran MoU And The Perplexing Shift Of American Foreign Policy

That being said, this whole MoU that’s been agreed upon between the US and Iran is a complete balagan! How does a nearly defeated enemy end up in a better position than when it first went to war? It’s absurd. It’s like the Allies making it to Berlin in 1945 but stopping before a final victory, then signing an agreement that leaves the Nazi party in power. Make it make sense! I have been greatly frustrated as I’ve watched what appears to be the capitulation of the United States to Iran. But in the grand scheme, what I feel doesn’t really matter. We don’t have to like everything that we see, because we know that in many cases it has to happen.

In-Depth: What Biblical Principles And Science Say About The Existence Of Extraterrestrials

Why don’t I expect anyone to find evidence of alien visitations on earth? It’s simple—I don’t believe ETs exist. Let’s look at this biblically for a moment. The Bible doesn’t address whether aliens exist. But the Bible doesn’t address many questions that I might have (whether I have a spleen comes to mind). When the Bible gives no clear answers to a question, we must use biblical thinking to answer the question.

Major Supreme Court Rulings Offer A Mixed Bag For Common-Sense Conservatives

The Court struck a major blow against transgender madness. Unfortunately, the Court went against the will of a majority of the American people in two other cases, ruling that mail-in ballots can be counted after Election Day, and shooting down President Trump’s executive order outlawing birthright citizenship. Long term, this is a potential national security risk.

Will America Last Another 250 Years?

Looking back, there can be no denying that God has indeed shed His grace—His unmerited favor—on our land, from sea to shining sea. But does our national “soul” encourage self-control? Do our laws champion ordered liberty? Is our success tempered with nobleness? Is brotherhood the defining characteristic of any good we aspire to reflect? By all of those measures, America seems decidedly adrift. We are drifting farther and farther from Nature’s God—the Ruler of the Universe our Founders called upon and credited with for our celebrated independence.

A Nation Founded Upon God: The Battle For The Soul Of America Is A Battle Worth Fighting

Independence Day reminds us that God has been at the center of our nation since its founding in 1776. Thomas Jefferson once said, “God who gave us life gave us liberty.” But friends, without God, there is no liberty. Jesus said in John 8:36, “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” Freedom is a gift—both spiritual freedom from the bondage of sin, and religious freedom to worship the Lord and live fearlessly for Jesus in the public square. But if we are not careful, our nation may lose the very freedoms upon which our country was founded.

Clarence Thomas: Sex Is An Immutable Biological Characteristic… To Be Indifferent Regarding The Truth Is To Lie To The Public

“Men and boys with gender dysphoria are not women or girls, even if they believe that they are,” Justice Thomas wrote. “Sex is an immutable ‘biological’ characteristic; it is binary; and ‘man’ and ‘woman,’ ‘boy’ and ‘girl,’ are the terms that correspond to adults and children of each sex.” Justice Thomas powerfully added, "To use language to obscure reality—to show 'indifference regarding the truth'—is to lie to the public and cease to treat our fellow citizens 'as equal[s].'"

Ravenous Wolves: Is James Talarico The Worst ‘Christian’ Politician?

Scripture is clear that not everyone who claims to be in Christ is actually in Christ. There are many who profess Christ with their mouths, but their hearts are far from him. And how do we know? Because they don’t do what He says: "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments" (John 14:15). These people will quote the Bible, claim they love God, attend church, and seem very winsome or charming on the outside, but inside they are ravenous wolves seeking to destroy the flock of God.

Beneath The Surface: The Spiritual Battlefield Surrounding The Nation of Israel

In a staggering reversal, the self-proclaimed master negotiator gave in to virtually every demand of the Iranian regime. What the world witnessed was not the art of the deal; it was the art of the kneel. How does a man of such immense worldly confidence suffer such an absolute, sudden collapse of resolve? The answer does not lie in the realm of political strategy, economic leverage, diplomatic maneuvering or even secular psychology. President Donald Trump stepped into a room to negotiate a political contract, completely unaware that he was stepping onto a spiritual battlefield of an intense, ancient war.

As Lessons Of History Are Ignored, It Has Never Been More Important For America To Remember The Consequences Of Deadly Ideologies

Thanks largely to mass migration, an Islamo-Communist now leads our largest city and financial capital. Mamdani manages to combine the two most deadly ideologies in history—Islamism and Communism—which together have killed countless millions of people. Communism alone claimed over 100 million victims in the 20th century in places like Mao's China and the Soviet Union. Yet, the young Americans who have turned out in recent months to vote for Socialists and outright Communists in places like New York, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., don't seem to remember any of this.

Supreme Court Upholds Protection Of Biological Reality In Sports: ‘A Man Does Not Have A Legal Right To Compete Against Women’

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments for both cases in January, and Tuesday's long-awaited ruling sparked widespread celebration among female athletes, parents, coaches and other advocates who have long fought to preserve fair play. Organizations like Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), which represented defendants in both cases, applauded the “massive Supreme Court victory for women’s sports.”

Our Founders Unashamedly Endorsed A Recognition That The Affairs Of Men Are Subject To God’s Overarching Authority

I was alive in 1976, when America celebrated its bicentennial. Now, just fifty years later, many in our own country would rather denounce than celebrate our national heritage. Their scorn is heaped highest on the faith foundations our Founders unashamedly endorsed: reverence for God, respect for the Savior, and a recognition that the affairs of men are subject to His overarching authority. We’ve come a long way—in the wrong direction.

The Freedom To Stand On God’s Word: White House Commission Releases 200-Page Report On Safeguarding Religious Liberty

The stories, collected from seven hearings held by the commission, came from parents, students, school teachers, military chaplains, military service members and health care workers, as well as private sector employees and religious institution leaders. Referring to the witnesses, Commissioner Franklin Graham said that there is “a thread that runs through all … these [testimonies], and that is the thread of what’s right and having the guts to stand for what’s right.” The report said the witnesses’ “commitment to stand by their beliefs” has played a “consequential role in preserving religious liberty for all Americans.

Jan Markell: Have Dispensational Theology And Christian Zionism ‘Corrupted Christianity’?

But now this theology—since it represents the truth—is under brutal attack. And wouldn't you know, Tucker Carlson has provided the platform to trash it. His guest, J.D. Hall, denigrates Christian Zionism, as does Tucker Carlson, who insists "a lot of people have died because of Christian Zionism." The program is titled, "Origins of Christian Zionism, How it Corrupted American Christianity and Why It Is Finally Collapsing." But think about the accusation: Christian Zionism has corrupted Christianity. That suggests standing by Israel has a cancerous effect.

UK Bill ‘Risks Criminalizing The Gospel,’ Recasting Ordinary Christian Life As Dangerous

This bill creates a framework that places Biblical teaching, prayer, and pastoral care under suspicion. And in doing so, it edges towards something deeply concerning: a society in which the transforming power of the gospel is further pushed to the margins. Now is the time to speak with clarity and courage.

The Danger Posed By Turkey Is Not Theoretical To Those Who Hold A Biblical Worldview

Turkey, a member of NATO, has a vast track record of antisemitism—praising the Iranian proxy-led massacre on October 7th, hosting Hamas terrorists, threatening to invade the Jewish State, and even publicly expressing the desire to acquire nuclear weapons. Some Military experts have gone so far as to brand the nation “the new Iran,” expressing concerns over Turkish President Erdogan’s thirst for power and radical anti-Israel rhetoric. The danger posed by Turkey is not theoretical to those who hold a Biblical worldview. Through the book of Ezekiel, chapters 38-39, we know that when the leadership in Turkey threatens to invade the Jewish State, we should take them at their word.

Regardless Of Strength Or Determination, No One Can Destroy God’s Uniquely Chosen People

Yad Vashem keeps alive the moving stories of those who suffered. But perhaps its greatest testimony to the world is for the Lord, who promised that no one—regardless of strength or determination—will destroy His uniquely chosen people, the “apple of His eye” (Zech. 2:8). God promised that the Jewish people will always exist (Jer. 31:35–36) and that He will curse him who curses Israel (Gen. 12:3). Hitler’s Third Reich is no more. But the nation of Israel is alive and thriving in the land God promised will belong to the Jewish people forever.

The Dual Citizenship: What It Means To Be An Ambassador For Christ In Culture Where Biblical Truth Is Under Attack

This spiritual war between truth and lies is being waged in the hearts and minds of people, particularly in the church. Too many Christians are being shaped by the culture rather than being shaped by the Savior and the Scripture. They are compromised when it comes to the core teaching of the Christian faith. Too many churches are throwing in the towel when it comes to the culture wars and social issues. Too many pastors are compromising their calling in the pulpit, watering down their messages from the infallible Word of God for fear of offending. There are two problems with that. Number one, people are offended too easily these days; and number two, the Bible is offensive because it speaks absolute truth for all generations.

America Must Not Abandon the Iranian People: It’s Time To Finish The Job Against The Irredeemable Regime In Tehran

The fact is, we have nearly five decades of experience to confirm that the Islamic Republic is an entirely irredeemable governing entity. Terrorism and vicious hatred of America, Israel, and the West are part of its DNA, and its fundamentalist vision is incompatible with peaceful coexistence with the civilized world. America – and the world – will never be safe if this regime survives in any form.

In Opposing Prayer, Australia’s Leaders Have Proven: God Does Not Factor Into Their Vision For The Nation

Although prayer has been preserved at a federal level (in both the House of Representatives and the Senate), individual States are facing ongoing petitions from members determined to see Christian prayer eradicated. This has already happened in the Australian Capital Territory (the location of the nation’s capital city, Canberra). In the Legislative Assembly, the rule in effect is: “Members, at the beginning of this sitting of the Assembly, I would ask you to stand in silence and pray or reflect on our responsibilities to the people of the Australian Capital Territory.” Similar calls are now being made in Australia’s most western State, appropriately called Western Australia. In the name of inclusivity, they want Christian prayer excluded with one person claiming it was “no longer appropriate.”

The ‘Promises’ Of Marriage Redefinition Have Played Out, And The American People Are Rendering Their Own Verdict

As we mark the 11th anniversary of Obergefell, Americans are no longer arguing over predictions; they are judging outcomes. They have watched the promises of marriage redefinition play out in their schools, businesses, athletic competitions, churches, and families. Increasingly, the American people are rendering their own verdict. The great experiment of redefining marriage and reinventing the family has produced its results. Americans are no longer judging promises — they are judging outcomes. The debate over the Sexual Revolution is no longer about its promises. It is about its consequences.

Thomas Jefferson’s ‘Separation Of Church And State’ Never Meant Keeping God Out Of Government

In context, it’s clear this wall of separation was not created to keep religion out of the State. It was simply intended to protect religious freedom and to place boundaries on the State’s control over the Church. In fact, the United States Capitol served as a church building for seven decades and Jefferson himself was a regular attendee. He attended so faithfully that he earned a reserved seat. On the Sunday after he wrote the letter to the Danbury Baptists, he attended church services at the still-under-construction Capitol.

Major Implications: The Unholy Alliance Of Islamists And Socialists Is Careening Toward The Halls Of Congress

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.

Helping In Jesus’ Name: Samaritan’s Purse Responds To Devastating Back-To-Back Earthquakes In Venezuela

Back-to-back earthquakes rocked Venezuela within a minute of each other on June 24. Both tremors measured over 7.0 in magnitude; the second quake reached 7.5, making it the strongest to hit the country in over a century. Aftershocks continue. More than 180 people are confirmed dead, with death toll estimates soaring into the thousands. Reports from some areas have not come in yet.

Enforcing Ideological Conformity: Brazil’s Imprisonment Of Parents And A Global UN Campaign To Eliminate Parent-led Education

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.

Where We Stand On The Existence Of ‘Alien Life’ Showcases Another Worldview Divide In Our Society

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.

In-Depth: Safeguarding Freedom—A Biblical Model For Defending Our Civic And Religious Rights

Since religious freedom has been a hot-button social issue and is more and more frequently covered in secular and Christian news media outlets, we sometimes are asked these questions. Does the Bible address religious freedom, and, if so, what does it say and where? The Apostle Paul (and his traveling companions on various mission trips) is perhaps the most notable example of a biblical figure who suffered religious persecution and also on occasion stood up for his religious liberty. It is interesting that Paul did so in a government that had some similarities to Western nations.

There Is No Middle Ground With Christ—If You Aren’t For Jesus, You’re Against Him

As an evangelist, I take sharing the Word of God and the hope of Jesus Christ very seriously. The way I look at it, eternity is at stake every time I stand up at the podium. When eternity is on the line—the difference between Heaven and Hell—I don’t pull punches. People need to know that both are real, literal places, and surrendering one’s life to Jesus is the difference. There is no middle ground with Christ. If you aren’t for Jesus, you’re against Him.
