STANDING ON THE TRUTH OF GOD’S WORD

Barna Group’s recent research reveals: only 4% of American adults and 6% of professing Christians hold a biblical worldview. Nearly half of American adults don’t believe the Bible is literally true — that is, according to a recent study highlighted by The Christian Post. The Ligonier State of Theology 2025 report, a separate study conducted by Lifeway Research, found a collective 48% of Americans believe “the Bible, like all sacred writings, contains helpful accounts of ancient myths but is not literally true.” Similarly, 44% reject that “the Bible is 100% accurate in all that it teaches.”

The State of Theology study revealed alarming trends: 47% of evangelicals believe God accepts the worship of all religions, 53% assert that most people are inherently good despite sinning occasionally, and 49% of U.S. adults view Jesus as a great teacher but not God. These findings, as Hibbs and Perkins emphasized, directly contradict biblical teachings, raising concerns about the doctrinal fidelity of many churches.

This should not come as a surprise as most church denominations have accepted gay marriage, homosexual pastors and even transgenderism. 

The Bible is God’s voice, His truth, alive and active. Every passion you’re wrestling with, every opinion you hold, Scripture speaks to it, directly or indirectly. Throw out any topic, and the Bible has the final say. It’s the lens that makes sense of everything. Every worldview outside the Bible crumbles under scrutiny. Only Scripture unveils who God is, what’s broken in the world, who we are, and where we’re headed. It’s the only lens that makes sense of a chaotic world.

When skeptics reject the Bible as God’s inspired, authoritative word, they’re left chasing fleeting wisdom from the “universe” — or worse, themselves — and they always come up empty.

I challenge you to find one person who’s genuinely content — not just pretending to be — and unshaken by life’s uncertainties, without a flicker of longing for something greater. I’ve yet to meet an unbeliever who isn’t, knowingly or not, trying to fill a God-shaped void with something, because we simply weren’t created from nothing, for nothing, only to die and fade back into nothing.

Dr. George Barna nailed it: “Understanding God — often referred to as ‘prime reality’ — is the cornerstone of worldview development. Without a biblical understanding of God, it is difficult to develop a coherent biblical worldview built on His truth.” There’s a simple truth we, as believers, must never forget: it’s not ultimately up to us to change minds and unharden hearts. Only God, through the power of the Holy Spirit, carries that ability. It’s easy to feel like a failure if a single conversation doesn’t spark a conversion, but that’s not the case.

I’ll tell you where we’ve failed. We fail when we water down Scripture to appease skeptics. We fail when we stop quoting God’s word because it’s “unwelcome.” We fail when we dodge the hard truths — sin, Christ’s cross, repentance — to avoid ruffling feathers. We fail when fear of rejection or uncertainty silences our witness, or when cynicism tricks us into thinking humanity’s hope lies in ourselves, not in Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords.

If you’re a Christ-follower reading this, I pray it causes you to re-examine your own life. Do you shy away from tough talks? Do you let skeptics dictate what you can or cannot say? Or do you stand bold in biblical conviction? Do doubts shake you, or do you anchor yourself in Christ?

We are all called to trust and obey. Trust that “the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say” (Luke 12:12). Trust that God’s grace is enough, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Trust that “God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19). Trust Psalm 118:6: “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” Because “if God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31).

Then, with these promises written on your heart, obey Christ’s call in Matthew 28:19 to “make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” Obey Ephesians 4:15’s charge to “speak truth in love.” Trusting in God’s faithfulness, obey the call to be salt and light, even when the world mocks us for it.

WHEN DOES GOD SEND A STRONG DELUSION?

We’re all living through the Biblical STRONG DELUSION of 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 and most don’t even know it. What is the delusion allowed by God? Click here to watch this amazing Nelson Walters video to discover what is deluding many in our churches today.

The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12

JEWS CRY OUT TO THEIR MESSIAH!

Something strange Is happening now in JERUSALEM – JEWS are crying out to their MESSIAH!

This is an extremely important video. It looks at all that is unfolding in Israel and with the enemies that are gathering around it. Extraordinary days, when Netanyahu spoke publicly about Jesus, a rabbi who healed people 2000 years ago at the pool of Siloam, this is not normal. It shows us God is in control as events are unfolding exactly as prophesied over 2000 years ago. Jesus Millennial Kingdom is close. Do you know what the Saints will be doing during Jesus Millennial Kingdom. If not go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net.

THE GOSPELS DON’T DISAGREE

Is Jesus family tree accurately predicted in the Bible? Matthew and Luke give different accounts. Why? Matthews list is not a genealogy. It is a list of kings which are not necessarily father/son relationships. The explanation is not simple but the complexity is so astounding that you know it is the truth and that the Bible is the revealed word of God.

Dr Robert Carter is an expert on human genetics and I have used his publications to unsettle many evolutionists. As Dr Carter points out from the results of the ENCODE project, the world has been given a glimpse inside the most sophisticated computer operating system in the known universe – the human genome. It could not have evolved. Whilst the gospels is not his area of study the way he tackles the Gospel’s problem is impressive and worth watching.

Let me know what you think.

WHAT IS NEXT ON GOD’S AGENDA FOR PLANET EARTH

Are we in the last seven years prophesied by Daniel’s 70 Weeks Prophecy (Daniel 9:24-27)?

Biblical prophecies are converging RIGHT NOW! Are we in the Tribulation?? Seven prophetic signs happening at the same time. Does this CONFIRM the Covenant with the Many has happened? Click here to watch this Nelson Walters video and see how the scriptures stack one upon another. What does this tell us? Let me know what you think.

We are fast approaching Jesus second coming to Earth to set up Jesus Millennial Kingdom. This earth has another 1000 years before God destroys it with fire. If you want to know more about what is next on God’s agenda for this earth go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net.

THE DARK PREDICTION FOR THE USA

I am not sure why I decided to watch this video other than I wanted to know what dark prediction that Megyn Kelly spoke that shocked Dave Rubin. I did know that Rubin was a friend of and had ministered with Charlie Kirk. I am so glad I did. I was impressed with Megyn Kelly and her understanding of where the USA is at right now considering the assassination of Charlie Kirk and her dark prediction of what is next.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Megyn Kelly about the emotional impact of Charlie Kirk’s tragic murder; how his advocacy for traditional values and open dialogue inspired young men; the difficulty of processing such loss while maintaining public platforms; the growing need for security in a polarized society; the role of religion and morality in countering divisive ideologies; the hope found in renewed interest in Charlie’s message; and their shared commitment to honour his legacy by defending truth, free speech, and cultural renewal; and much more.

TRUE GOSPEL VERSUS POLITICAL GOSPEL – TWO CONSERVATISMS AT CHARLIE KIRK’S FUNERAL

The hundreds of thousands of Americans who tuned into Charlie Kirk’s funeral could not help but notice the contrasting messages presented by speakers. “There could not have been a clearer presentation of the gospel” by some speakers, while “it was almost like a political gospel that was spoken” by others, said Family Research Council President Tony Perkins on “Washington Watch.” “And I really think it’s a picture of the current conservative movement, if you will.”

On one hand, Pastor Frank Turek affirmed the incarnation and explained penal substitutionary atonement, on the other hand, White House advisor Stephen Miller preached a message of political victory over the enemies of Western civilization.

 On one hand, Charlie’s widow, Erika Kirk announced through tears that she forgave his assassin. “On the cross, our Saviour said, ‘Father forgive them, for they know not what they do’ [Luke 23:34],” she said, visibly contending with her emotions. “That young man — I forgive him. I forgive him because it was what Christ did and is what Charlie would do. On the other hand, President Donald Trump confessed that he found such forgiveness impossible, apart from a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit in his life. Kirk “did not hate his opponents; he wanted the best for them,” Trump began. “That’s where I disagree with Charlie. I hate my opponent. And I don’t want the best for them. I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Erika. But now, maybe Erika can talk to me and the whole group, and maybe they can convince me that that’s not right. But I can’t stand my opponent.” We need to pray that the Holy Spirit will convict Trump on the need to forgive his enemies.

Perkins was “troubled” by the content of some of the speeches, concluding that they showed “the contrast between the Kingdom of God, which is countercultural, which is counterintuitive, to the world. I think we actually saw that on display in the conservative movement yesterday.”

Of course, these contrasting messages and visions cannot be reconciled. Jesus himself juxtaposed these views on enemies in the Sermon on the Mount. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 5:43-45). And Jesus contrasted the political gospel with a spiritual gospel in his discussion with Pilate, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting” (John 18:36).

The way of Trump and Miller is earthly; the way of Erika Kirk and Turek is heavenly. One may be tempted to ask, which is the real legacy of Charlie Kirk? Which is the real pattern of conservatism?

Yet these questions presume that there is only one conservatism, one legacy of Charlie Kirk — one straw man at which leftist media quills can tilt. In reality, at least two distinct movements were jostling one another for position at Sunday’s memorial service, continue to jostle in the Trump administration, and have jostled around in Republican politics for some time.

Whether either movement — the Christian or non-Christian brands of conservatism — will succeed in claiming an undisputed right to Kirk’s legacy, or for control of Republican politics, remains an open question. The only point that seems settled (for now) is that the two movements will coexist as a confederation of rivals while the values of both remain under assault from the culturally dominant Left.

LEAVING ISLAM FOR CHRIST’S FREEDOM CONVICTED ME THAT SILENCE IS SIN

This is a great article by Hedieh Mirahmadi, Exclusive Columnist of The Christian Post. In the process of leaving Islam for Christ’s freedom, she was convicted that not actively sharing your faith is sin.

In a world that vilifies biblical truth, the temptation to stay silent grows stronger every day. Ecclesiastes 3:7 reminds us there’s “a time to be silent and a time to speak,” yet too often Christians choose silence when the world needs our voice the most.

As a former Muslim who spent years navigating spiritual deception before encountering Christ, I understand the cost of keeping quiet. Silence can feel safe, but it’s a betrayal of the Gospel. We are called to proclaim truth boldly, even when it costs us everything, as it did for Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, whose recent martyrdom ignited a fire for revival.

Silence often stems from unbelief. When we doubt God’s power, we clamp our mouths shut, much like Zechariah, struck mute for questioning God’s promise of a son. Before I knew Jesus, I thought silence was strategic — avoiding conflict to blend in. Faith demands more. As 2 Corinthians 4:13 declares, “I believed, therefore I spoke.” We who believe must speak, openly proclaiming truth as Paul urged in 2 Corinthians 4:2, renouncing “the things hidden because of shame.” In a culture quick to brand biblical convictions as “hate speech,” unbelief whispers to stay quiet. Faith shouts.

Speaking truth comes at a price. John 3:20 warns that the world hates the light because it exposes evil. Scripture and history bear this out: Abel, the first martyr; John the Baptist, beheaded for calling out sin; Stephen, stoned for his unyielding testimony in Acts 7. Modern heroes like Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., and Bobby Kennedy paid with their lives for their convictions.

Some call it hate speech, but truth often sounds like hate to those in darkness. Jesus Himself was crucified for speaking the truth. Silent before Pilate, bearing our sins, He spoke when asked if He was King: “For this purpose I have come into the world: to testify to the truth” (John 18:37). Pilate’s scoff — “What is truth?” — mirrors today’s relativism, where truth is sacrificed for tolerance.

My journey from Islam to Christianity taught me that silence enables oppression. In Islamic regimes, dissent is crushed, much like the synagogue leaders who accused Stephen of blasphemy when they couldn’t counter his wisdom. They covered their ears and killed him, just as today’s cancel culture silences truth-tellers. Stephen’s angelic face as he forgave his killers echoes the love that transformed me from legalism to grace. Ephesians 5:11 compels us: “Do not participate in the useless deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them.” Charlie’s martyrdom wasn’t murder; it was a spark for revival. After his death and Erika’s powerful speech, Turning Point USA grew from 2,000 to 32,000 chapters. The enemy snuffed out a candle, but God ignited an inferno.

Yet how many of us shrink back? Like Moses, reluctant to lead, or Isaiah, feeling unworthy, we make excuses. Fear of rejection? Loss of approval? Luke 6:26 warns, “Woe to you when all the people speak well of you.” We are sent — dispatched by Jesus, who said, “Just as the Father has sent Me, I also send you” (John 20:21). Silence isn’t an option. Psalm 39:2 describes the pain of holding back: “I was mute and silent … And my pain was stirred up.” Paul, battered in Corinth, heard Christ say, “Go on speaking and do not be silent” (Acts 18:9). Charlie was a megaphone for truth; we must be too.

CHARLIE’S MARTYRDOM IS TRULY A TURNING POINT FOR THE USA

Eric Metaxas reflects on his time at the Charlie Kirk memorial in Phoenix, sharing powerful moments of faith and unity. He highlights the surprising breadth of Christian remarks from the current administration and explores why many believe this moment could mark the beginning of revival in America.

You will be blessed if you watch this video. Eric is a remarkable communicator and yet he had difficulty finding the right words to express what he saw at Charlie Kirk’s memorial. It was such a powerful witness of the Christian faith by the top leaders of the government of the USA.

The name of Charlie Kirks ministry is Turning Point and Charlie’s martyrdom may very well be a turning point for the USA.
