There are promising uses of AI: transforming cancer detection and diagnostics, the possibility of cures for dreaded diseases, new efficiencies in commerce, or in reducing government bureaucracy. But there are also possibilities fraught with ethical, moral and pragmatic concerns: predictive and generative warfare tactics and weapons, government surveillance and public safety, advanced genetic editing and lab-created embryos. For good or ill, AI is revolutionizing the structures of society.

Can A Genuine Christian Be Antisemitic? Depending on who you ask, the answer can either be yes or no... It's complicated! But it doesn't have to be. I have witnessed people getting very emotional over that very topic. I have seen people get judgmental, verbally abusive, and divisive to validate their position on either side of that fence. People do not have to agree on everything, but there must be clarity between them when specific words are used.
This is not just another war in the Middle East. What we are watching right now is not simply a military campaign but something much larger unfolding, something that at the very least raises the question of the Lord’s providence moving in real time. How this moment ends will determine what comes next, not just regionally but globally. Right now, Israel and the United States, under Donald Trump, have inflicted serious damage on Iran’s military capabilities and its proxy network.
On the surface, aspirations of liberty, wisdom, self-improvement, acceptance, and community all sound noble and worthy of one’s pursuits. Yet, upon closer scrutiny and utilizing some Biblical discernment, it is quickly understood that the true underlying force behind neo-paganism is a rejection of the One true God of the Bible and by extension, His Son, Jesus.
While the nation digests the bombshell federal indictment handed down against the Southern Poverty Law Center on April 21, 2026, most Americans are rightly focused on the hypocrisy. But the SPLC’s giant and malign influence in U.S. “education” should be under the microscope, too.
Now, few Christians are surprised by “progressive Christians” like her treating God’s Word this way. But what they don’t realize is that many Christians functionally believe the same thing she does—they just would never say it that way! Most Christians would never say we need another Bible, that we should tear out pages of the Scriptures we find problematic, or that the Bible is merely a book about God—but they act like it in how they treat the Scriptures . . . particularly Genesis.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit ruled Friday that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration must restore the in-person dispensing requirement for the abortion drug mifepristone pending appeal. This ruling prevents pro-abortion activists and doctors from mailing streams of high-risk abortion drugs into states that protect the lives of unborn babies.
The choice is yours: will you react or respond to God’s holy, righteous judgment? The Scriptures make it clear that a time of final judgment is coming because of sin. All of us have sinned and the wages (payment) for our sin is death: spiritual death (Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23). We deserve punishment, but God longs for a close personal relationship with each of us and has made a way for us to be right with Him through Jesus. Will you pridefully try to save yourself, or will you call on Jesus to rescue you from God’s eternal wrath and bring you into a relationship with Him?
While ever we support the need to address the stain of antisemitism in Australia, the Commission’s goal of determining the necessary recommendations to remove the threat of antisemitism will likely fall short for one very good reason—they will likely ignore God’s Word. A central pillar of Nazi ideology was that Jews were unnatural creatures. Unfortunately, this same ideology has not only carried into the modern age, where it concerns individual Jews, but this is also how many choose to view the creation of the modern State of Israel—as an affront to the natural order.
The new report released this week by the Department of Justice’s Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias is a wake-up call. The task force, led by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, has produced one of the most, if not the most, substantive works of this administration. The report, entitled “Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias within the Federal Government,” lays bare what is at the heart of the Left’s disdain for religious freedom: it is a clash of “worldviews” over abortion, gender ideology, and sexual orientation.
As Christians, should we carelessly employ language that dishonors God and reinforces the false idea that men can become women and women can become men? Should we signal acceptance of the false belief that cross-sex hormones and/or surgery accomplish the impossible? Of course not. Reinforcing the false concept with our language keeps people stuck rather than showing them the way out.
Will Graham will kick off this national movement on May 15. For the following 50 days, church leaders from each state will lead a short prayer via video, asking God to move in our households, government, and society. Graham will conclude this special season of prayer, thanking God for how He has blessed the United States and seeking His mercy, direction, and provision as we celebrate our nation’s founding on the Fourth of July.
Although the “mystery of lawlessness,” mentioned in the above passage, was already at work during the first century AD, it has grown exponentially in recent years. In the past several months, we have heard reports of how corrupt politicians have facilitated the theft of mindboggling amounts of taxpayer funds. The total exceeds several hundred billions of dollars. The numbers are impossible to fully grasp.
What’s caused this leap in young men’s interest in “religion”? Well, some people are calling it the “Charlie Kirk effect”; others are pointing to popular podcasts, like Joe Rogan’s, that are spiritually curious and have often hosted Christians. While we don’t know for sure what’s causing it, the rise in men interested in faith means that you may have some new young male faces in your church—so what should you be doing to make sure they are being discipled well?
It’s safe to say that, among the nations of the world, Israel perhaps evokes stronger thoughts and emotions in people than any other. Israel and polarization seem to fit hand in glove, as people either strongly like or love Israel or dislike or even hate the Jewish nation. It seems most people tend to feel very strongly about Israel, one way or another. In the church today, the nation of Israel is also a point of contention, not geopolitically, per se, but biblically
The resolution rejects the “humanistic, globalist ideologies of the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and like-minded organizations that fight for population control through the means of promoting sterilization and abortion practices... The nuclear family is God’s perfect design for humanity and is aligned with the long-held traditional values of Tennessee.”
Without Scripture and the promises and presence of God to depend on, where would one turn as a parent? When we have principles to go by from Scripture, we have a target for our faith. We are not left to flounder or to pick a book off the shelf at a bookstore in order to find a parenting philosophy to go by. Rather, we go by God’s words to us—principles for husbands, wives, and children.
All cults and manmade religions are based on “works righteousness.” Their adherents believe they have to do something to earn their way to heaven: pray five times a day, lie on beds of nails, do good works, fast, repeat certain prayers, etc. They do this because they are ignorant of God’s standard of righteousness.
The evolutionary worldview is a religion, one that’s practiced by those who attack Christianity. They have a nontheistic religion; in fact, evolution fits one of the Merriam-Webster dictionary definitions of religion: “a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith.” The dictionary definition of religion certainly describes the worldview of evolutionary naturalism. The beliefs of evolutionism purport to explain the entire world’s existence by means of evolutionary naturalism, and thus, it is an all-encompassing faith—a religious worldview.
When a school policy intrudes on a right “deeply rooted in this Nation’s history”—such as parental authority over a child’s upbringing—can courts dismiss the case simply because the school’s conduct wasn’t outrageous enough? Or do parents deserve stronger constitutional protection? The high court chose not to answer.
The two pieces of legislation, backed by Governor Ron DeSantis and signed into law last week, are a continuation of Florida’s efforts to expand freedom and destroy what the governor refers to as “woke” ideology, his office said. “Floridians should not be forced to pay for radical climate agendas or identity politics with their hard-earned tax dollars,” said DeSantis, a Republican, in a statement about the laws. The “important bills,” continued the governor, “limit government overreach and prevent local authorities from imposing carbon taxes and discriminatory DEI mandates on Floridians.”
Respondents who identified themselves as politically left of center showed higher willingness to accept political violence. More than half of respondents in this group said it would be at least partially justified to murder Musk (50%) and the president (56%). Nearly 60% felt it would be at least partially justified to destroy a Tesla dealership.
In chapter 6, the narrative takes a dramatic turn. As one after another seal is broken, the action in Heaven unleashes a great calamity on Earth. No longer the meek and mild suffering Servant of Isaiah 53, Christ is now the Worthy One who breaks the seals that send forth riders and catastrophes to inflict great suffering on the Earth. This reality alone does not align with the false prophets of prosperity who proclaim that Jesus would never hurt a fly. The image here is of Jesus exercising the will of the Father to pour out judgment on an unrepentant world devoid of Church Age saints who have been swept up at the Rapture.
Rick Scarborough, former pastor of Houston-area First Baptist Church of Pearland, Texas, and leader of Recover America, went viral for his comments to the board, in which he said that after more than 50 years in full-time ministry, he had “never [seen] a Biblical pastor who supports children having access to books that are so explicit they are banned in our prisons here in Texas.”
The assassination culture we're seeing in America right now is not a problem coming from “both sides of the aisle." Yet this is the claim the mainstream media runs with every time there is an attempt on a conservative's life, and there have been many in recent years. We witnessed it again this past weekend when President Trump was targeted for death yet again by a radical leftist at the White House Correspondents Dinner in DC.
Yes, the drums of war are beating, louder and louder. Across the globe, tensions are rising at a pace that feels escalations are inevitable. Nations are aligning, alliances are shifting, and conflicts once considered regional are now threatening to ignite on a global scale. For those who study Bible prophecy, these developments are not surprising; they are expected.
We don’t get to choose where we are born. And there is no paradise on earth. I have written on multiple occasions about living in a wicked city. Minneapolis, and the greater Twin Cities’ area, is a hotbed of crime, lawlessness, Somali scandal, leftist lunatic politics, and has attracted the second-largest homosexual population in America.
So far, Israeli and Jordanian officials continue to meet secretly to discuss shared security concerns. Only God Himself knows what will happen to Israeli-Jordanian relations after King Abdullah’s reign; but given the Arabs’ intense hatred for Israel, they probably will deteriorate quickly.
The suspect left behind a written manifesto clearly stating his intention to target the President and members of his administration. He also carried significant anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric on his social media accounts. President Trump confirmed it himself on Fox News: “When you read his manifesto, he hates Christians.” Acts of extreme violence and threats have become far too common, and it’s deeply concerning for our nation. The White House Correspondents’ Dinner Shooting serves as a sobering reminder of the tense and uncertain times we are living in. What is going on in America? The Bible has an answer.
The United Nations (U.N.) is once again handing the keys to the hen house over to the foxes. This month, Cuba, Iran, China, Nicaragua, and Sudan are among the 19 countries that will accredit and oversee NGOs on the Committee on Non-Governmental Organizations. Each of these regimes counts among its “achievements” the criminalization or persecution of dissident voices; furthermore, they deliberately attack or refuse to recognize those voices that do not serve their interests.
September of 1950 was when Billy Graham’s organization was founded in Minneapolis. The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association was the very heart of powerful expansion of the saving message of Jesus Christ. Jan Markell's ministry carries on that all important push to get the message that Jesus saves from this geographical area. Is it any wonder Satan and his minions wage war on this twin-city area that serves as the center for evangelization of America and the world?
In over 50 years of traveling and speaking on Genesis, biblical worldview, and apologetics, one comment I continue to hear over and over again is, “I grew up in the church my whole life, and I’ve never heard any of this!” Why is it that so few Christians can answer the skeptical questions of our day that attack God’s Word—particularly, Genesis?
Greg Laurie, Pastor of Harvest Riverside, reacted to the incident, writing: "This serves as a sobering reminder of the tense and uncertain times we are living in. Acts of extreme violence and threats have become far too common, and it’s deeply concerning for our nation. It was only months ago that Charlie Kirk was assassinated. We should be praying for the safety of our president, our elected officials, and for the well-being, peace, and unity of our country."
