BIBLICAL END TIMES APOSTATE CHURCH

The appointment of Dame Sarah Mullally as the first female archbishop of Canterbury has drawn sharp criticism from Gafcon, a global Anglican movement, which accused the Church of England of abandoning biblical teaching by choosing a leader who has affirmed blessings for same-sex relationships.

Gafcon leaders said Mullally’s support for introducing prayers of blessing for same-sex marriages and her 2023 comment that some same-sex relationships could be blessed showed she had failed to uphold her consecration vows. They warned that her elevation would deepen divisions in the 85 million-member Anglican Communion and render Canterbury unable to serve as a focus of unity.

“When she was consecrated in 2015, she took an oath to ‘banish and drive away all strange and erroneous doctrine contrary to God’s Word,’” he said. “And yet, far from banishing such doctrine, Bishop Mullally has repeatedly promoted unbiblical and revisionist teachings regarding marriage and sexual morality.”

“For over a century and a half, the Archbishop of Canterbury functioned not only as the Primate of All England but also as a spiritual and moral leader of the Anglican Communion,” Rev. Laurent Mbanda, chairman of the Gafcon Primates Council, said. “In more recent times, the See of Canterbury has been described as one of the four ‘instruments of Communion,’ whilst also chairing the other three Instruments, namely the Lambeth Conference, the Primates Meeting and the Anglican Consultative Council.” “However, due to the failure of successive Archbishops of Canterbury to guard the faith, the office can no longer function as a credible leader of Anglicans, let alone a focus of unity,” he continued. “As we made clear in our Kigali Commitment of 2023, we can ‘no longer recognize the Archbishop of Canterbury as an Instrument of Communion’ or the ‘first among equals’ of global Primates.”

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.

THE PROPHESIED LAST DAYS APOSTATE CHURCH

The Cathedral of Hope, one of the largest United Church of Christ (UCC) congregations in the world, has a reported 4,000 members and is known for its progressive LGBT activism.

A man dressed as a woman appeared to threaten violence against supporters of President Donald Trump. The incident took place following a “drag king” service at the Cathedral of Hope in which a performer suggested the far-left church’s congregants should “sacrifice” Trump voters.

“If any of y’all voted for Trump, please don’t tell us,” the man said, eliciting a smattering of applause from the audience. “No, don’t tell us … or do y’all sacrifice? Could we start?”

When someone in the crowd identified another person, the performer asked, “He voted for Trump?” After the audience member denied it, the drag performer said, “OK, ‘cause I will kill him,” garnering laughter from the audience.

The performer then shared a story about how he was part of a group of “other drag queens” who went to Austin to “fist fight” Gov. Greg Abbott, who is a Christian and a paraplegic following an accident in 1984 in which he lost use of his legs.

“He just wouldn’t stand up and fight me,” the drag performer said, adding, “I think that’s the easiest thing we can do with the money that we raise is take away those wheelchair ramps, not let him have access to the [Texas House] floor.”

In September 2023, Cathedral of Hope held a similar drag-themed event to protest Texas’ ban on drag performances that take place in front of minors, which was later ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge. At that event, Cathedral of Hope invited several drag troupes, including the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a blasphemous group that spurred controversy over allegations of being anti-Catholic.

In May 2023, the group was invited, cancelled and then re-invited to Dodger Stadium for the team’s pride event despite backlash from both conservative and religious groups.

The United Church of Christ is just one of the many denominational churches that have fallen away from Biblical truth and are now an abomination to the Lord. Biblical prophecy reveals that many will fall away and that persecution of Christians will escalate before Jesus returns.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold... For false Christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.” Revelation 24:9-12, 24

Moreover, what we are seeing is proof that we are in the prophesied last days before Jesus returns first to raise the dead in Christ and to rapture those still alive before pouring out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements. Jesus and the Saints then return to Earth to save Israel and destroy the Antichrist’s army at the battle of Armageddon. Jesus will then judge the nations and set up His Millennial Kingdom from a renewed Jerusalem and restructured Israel. 

TURNING AWAY FROM GOD – AN APOSTATE CHURCH

For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them. What the true proverb says has happened to them: “The dog returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.” 2 Peter 2:20-22

Many people who declare themselves Christians today and attend church know about God and Jesus. This does not necessarily mean that they are true Christians. People may outwardly reform and escape from the open corruptions that prevail around them or that they have themselves practised but still have no true grace at heart. Neither does “through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesses Christ” imply that they were true Christians and had received the Holy Spirit. There is a knowledge of the doctrines and duties of religion, which may lead sinners to abandon their outward vices, which has no connection with saving grace. They may profess religion and may know enough of religion to understand that it requires them to abandon their vicious habits, but they have never received the Holy Spirit, which enables them to live the Christian life.

Jesus’s parable of the ten virgins who were waiting for the bridegroom, their Saviour, Jesus Christ, should be a wake-up call for the church. Only half of them were saved and had oil (Holy Spirit) for their lamps. This parable is a picture of the church before Jesus returns. It is sobering as it says that all ten virgins were sleeping at the time of His arrival, and only half were saved.

We are living in the Biblical prophesied end times before Jesus’ second coming. Much of the denominational/institutional church has compromised with the world on homosexuality, gay marriage and transgenderism, just as Jesus prophesied. A great falling away, an apostate church.

Are you even aware of what is next on God’s agenda for planet Earth? This Earth has another 1,000 years before God destroys it with fire. After Jesus raptures His Saints to join the resurrected Saints, He will pour out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with Trumpet (Revelation 8 & 9) and Bowl judgements (Revelation 15 & 16). Jesus then returns with the glorified Saints to usher in Jesus’ Millennial Kingdom.

PROOF WE ARE IN THE PROPHESIED END TIMES

The pope’s decision to have a special pilgrimage for the LGBT community in the 2025 Jubilee Year, titled “Church: Home for All, LGBT+ Christians and Other Existential Frontiers” is evidence he has departed from Biblical faith and is leading the Catholic church into apostasy. What he is proposing will involve a prayer vigil for LGBT Catholics on September 5th at the Church of the Gesù in Rome. They will then pass through the Holy Doors of St. Peter’s on September 6th.

Here we have the Church allowing the categories that are at odds with Catholic teaching on sexuality and the human body — to drive the 2025 Jubilee celebration. However well-intentioned the pastoral motivation may be, the impression is one of either ignorance or contempt not merely for traditional Catholicism in particular but for orthodox Christianity in general.

Before Jesus’ second coming, He prophesied that most of the institutional denominations would fall away and compromise with the world. They have departed from God’s ways on homosexuality, gay marriage, and transgender issues. We are truly in the Biblical prophesied end times and as the following Scripture reveals persecution/tribulation will only intensify for Christians.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.Matthew 24:9-14

God will purify His church prior to the rapture. We cannot say we were not warned.

WILL THE CHURCH IN AMERICA RESPOND TO THE OPPORTUNITY GOD HAS PROVIDED WITH THE TRUMP ELECTION VICTORY?

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil... that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. .” Ephesians 6:10-20

Ephesians 6 explains the spiritual battle that we are in and it urges us to put on the full armour of the Lord and then to stand. So the battle is never done this side of heaven. We have to continue to perpetually stand for the truth. The church in America has in the main compromised with the world just as Jesus said it would in the last days before He returns to Earth.

As a result of Trump’s remarkable win in the 2024 Presidential Election U.S.A. God has allowed the church time to put the country back on the right track. As Family Research Council’s (FRC) Mary Szoch said after voters knocked off three radical pro-abortion ballot initiatives, this is the opening believers have been waiting for. On Tuesday, “Americans … re-elected the most pro-life president in the history of America,” she emphasized. “Now is the time for us to work together to promote strong, faith-filled marriages, strengthen families, and create a society that values every single person from the moment they come into existence. The opportunity to build a culture of life in America is great, and we cannot waste it.”

We also need to remember, Hibbs said on Pray Vote Stand: Decision 2024, “The church needs a revival. We will still wake up tomorrow knowing that the church needs to turn back to Scripture — and pulpits … [need to address] through the Scripture the issues that shape our congregants and their life, their worldview. And so, we need a revival. We pray that this election is a little part of that, but the bottom line is the answer. Are God’s people stepping up? Are God’s people getting involved?”

Another thing Christians need to realize, former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann said, is that “we have a lot to be grateful for.” The Trump campaign is in a “good place,” she acknowledged, “[but that’s] in the natural. I felt like the Lord was saying to me early on in this campaign that this [race] won’t be won in the natural, it will be won in the supernatural. And I truly believe that we need to just keep leaning in [with] prayer and what we’re [doing]. Where Scripture has taken me this week is [to Exodus] where Moses is standing when the Israelites are battling with the Amalekites — and then Hur and Aaron are holding up Moses’s arms — all while Joshua was on the field at the battle. And so it’s both: it’s prayer, and it’s action.”

When the church does both, she explained, “then we see victory.” “… But we can never, ever take it for granted.” The reality is, Michele pointed out, “Four years is going to go fast. And again, we only have two years until the next midterm, so … we’ve got to get to work. … It’s like there was a party and the furniture is all broken and the drapes are torn down from the windows, and we’ve got to get America’s house back in order fast and do what the American public believes that Donald Trump and a Republican Senate and a Republican House can do.”

That takes work, it takes commitment, and it takes an army of men and women determined to pay the price to speak up — and stand up. Whatever happens from here, Tony Perkins (FRC) urged, “Election 2024 must not be the finish line for Christians in America; I pray it is a starting point. It’s time for the church to arise. Our hurting nation needs a revival that only God can provide.”

As I said in my last post Donald Trump will not make America great again. Unless God brings revival to America and the nation gets on its knees to repent of all its abominable sins: abortion, gay marriage, homosexuality, transgenderism, etc. God will not lift the judgment that America is already under. Sadly, I just do not believe Scripture shows that this will happen. We are already in the Biblical prophesied end times many of the Biblical prophesied end times signs have already manifested and persecution of Christians will only intensify.

Much of this post has been extracted from an article by Suzanne Bowdey, Trump’s Win ‘Isn’t the Finish Line – It’s the Starting Point’, She serves as editorial director and senior writer at The Washington Stand.

BIBLICAL PROPHESIED END TIMES APOSTATE CHURCH

“When the leader of the largest African American Pentecostal denomination stood up and said I endorse Kamala Harris, he was saying: I endorse murder, I endorse homosexuality, I endorse lesbianism, I endorse transgenderism, I endorse every evil that Hell could prosper or bring up to [be] right. That’s wrong, folks,” Donnie Swaggart lamented to members of the Family Worship Center Church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where his father, Jimmy Swaggart, remains senior leader.

You also know that it shows we are in the Biblical prophesied end times when Jesus told us that much of the church will fall away from the truth and compromise with the world’s values.

“The black church votes predominantly for the party that is anti-God. What’s going on here? What’s going on?” Swaggart asked.

He suggested that some black Christians don’t like it when he or his ministry publicly discusses the support Democrats have from black churches. Still, it needs to be discussed because Democrats don’t support an agenda that is in line with biblical values.

Scores of young COGIC leaders have since responded to Swaggart’s rebuke in an open letter, arguing, in part, that he presented a reductive view of the black church based on political allegiance. They call his view “not only an oversimplification of the faith but a theological distortion that borders on idolatry.”

“The Gospel is not the handmaiden of any political party or political movement, and the Kingdom of God is neither Republican nor Democrat. Such a mishandling of the Gospel is erroneous at best and heretical at worst,” the leaders asserted.

Sheard’s  anointing of Harris came after she delivered a message from Jeremiah 29:11 which says: “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”

“We are blessed because we are yet in the land of the living. You are blessed to be in this place today and we’re blessed to have, ladies and gentlemen, the next president of the United States, Kamala Harris,” Sheard declared as he introduced Harris to his congregation ahead of her message.

Harris then wielded scripture while encouraging the packed church to help God’s plan by voting.

“So church, in just two days, we have the power to decide the fate of our nation for generations to come. And as we prepare for that moment, I am reminded of the passage from scripture. The prophet Jeremiah wrote, for I know the plans I have for you. They are the plans for good. And not for disaster. To give you a future and a hope. Church, God has a plan for us. He has good plans,” Harris declared.

“Plans that will heal us and bring us together as one nation. Plans for freedom, plans for opportunity, plans for justice. But let us remember, it is not enough to just believe in those plans. We must act. Not enough to only pray, not enough to just talk. We must act on the plans he has in store for us. And we must make them real through our works.”

Kamala Harris is an agent of Satan who is the master deceiver and it is obvious he has trained Kamala well. Satan used Scripture when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness and Kamala Harris likewise quotes Scripture to tempt churchgoers.

AGAIN POPE FRANCIS PROCLAIMS A FALSE GOSPEL

Pope Francis has never shied away from provocative statements or launching in new directions. But this time he seems to have gone all the way. Pope Francis recently proclaimed “a different gospel” (Galatians 1:6).

During a three-day visit to Singapore, Pope Francis declared that “all religions are a path to God.” He boldly proclaimed, “There’s only one God, and each of us has a language to arrive at God. Some are Sheik, Muslim, Hindu, Christian, and they are different paths (to God).”

Someone in the Secretariat of State thought that remark needed a little massage, though, so the official Vatican translation added a verb and something that is either a participle or a gerundive, depending on how you diagram the sentence: “All religions are seen as paths trying to reach God.”

After a day or so of online invective and—presumably—more than a little back-and-forth within the Comms apparatus, a new translation appeared: “All religions are paths to God.”

If Francis and the official Vatican are correct, then Jesus was wrong when He stated,

I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me” John 14:6

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting lifeJohn 3:16

Jesus did not die on the cross to provide “one more way” of getting to God. He died for our sins because it was the only way we could be reconciled to our Father in Heaven.

God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting men’s sins against them2 Corinthians 5:19

It is only through Christ that anyone can be reconciled to the Father. There simply is no other way, period.

If righteousness could be gained through the Law, Christ died for nothingGalatians 2:21

In other words, if a person could get to God without Christ, the Father would never have sent His only Son to suffer the agony of crucifixion for our salvation.

Pope Francis proclaimed a counterfeit gospel in Singapore. It is “another gospel.” (Galatians 1:8) The pope’s teaching smacks of Universalism rather than Christianity. This false teaching completely contradicts the wisdom of the Gospel and the truth of Scripture and reveals that the Catholic church is an apostate church with most of the other denominational churches. Jesus said this would be a major end-times sign indicating His return is near.

Pope Francis sounded more like a politician than a prophet in Singapore. If you attempt to reduce Christianity to the level of every other religion, you strip it of its core tenets. There is only One God, and He is triune. And there is only one Gospel, and “it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16).

The world wants Christians to embrace the false gospel that Pope Francis unashamedly presented as truth. The big question is could Pope Francis be the Biblical prophesied end times False Prophet?

WHAT VOTERS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS

Here’s what people NEED to realize about Kamala Harris and her presidential run. In this short video, Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis (AIG) speaks on the recent political ideologies of Kamala, sharing his perspective on them as a Bible-believing Christian.

Amazingly, so-called Christians are coming out in support of Kamla Harris. There is even a website http://www.evangelicalsforharris.com

On a Zoom call “White Dudes for Harris” that featured celebrities and grabbed headlines, John Pavlovitz, a liberal-leaning Christian author and activist hatched the idea for a Christian-centric version and texted his friend Malynda Hale, a singer, actress, and fellow activist. “We had a conversation about how, specifically on the Democratic side of the political spectrum, you don’t hear a lot of people talking about their faith,” Hale told Religion News Service in an interview. “We wanted people to know that there are progressive Christians, there are Christians on the Democratic, left-leaning side so that they didn’t feel alone.”

The result was Christians for Kamala, a part-fundraiser, part-virtual roundtable live-streamed event on Monday (Aug. 12). Featured speakers cited their faith as they praised liberal policies and personally endorsed Harris.

Jerushah Duford, a counselor who is also Billy Graham’s granddaughter and Franklin Graham’s niece said, “Voting Kamala, for me, is so much greater than policies,” Duford said. “It’s a vote against another four years of faith leaders justifying the actions of a man who destroys the message Jesus came to spread, and that is why I get involved in politics.”

Thankfully, Jesus told us that this would be the state of the world before He returns to restore righteousness and usher in His Millennial Kingdom. Go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net if you want to know what is next on God’s agenda for planet Earth. It still has another 1000 years before God finally destroys it. We have had 6000 years of Satan’s rule. To complete the covenants God made with Abraham, David, and Jesus we will have 1000 years with Jesus and the Saints ruling the world with a rod of iron.

From His (Jesus) mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.Revelation 19:15-16

The one who conquers and who keeps my works until the end, to him I will give authority over the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of ironRevelation 2:26-27

UNITED METHODIST CHURCH ELECTS THIRD OPENLY GAY WOMAN BISHOP

A regional body of The United Methodist Church has its third openly gay bishop, the first since the mainline Protestant denomination changed its rules to allow noncelibate homosexuals to be ordained.  

The Rev. Kristin Stoneking, a United Methodist studies professor at the Pacific School of Religion, was elected a bishop by the UMC Western Jurisdiction at their meeting held last week in Spokane, Washington.

Stoneking was elected on the 11th ballot, receiving 65 votes out of 94 valid ballots cast. For that ballot, she needed to receive at least 63 votes, according to UM News. Her term of service begins on Sept. 1.

An emotional Stoneking addressed the regional body shorty after being elected, stating that saints were “ordinary people” who “love without limits,” echoing the theme of the gathering.

“I’m so humbled at this time, at this incredibly momentous opportune time for us as a denomination to lean in to all of the doors that are opening. May we all be humble learners. I commit to you to be a humble learner.” Learner of what? It is certainly not God’s Word.

Stoneking is the third person in a same-sex marriage to be elected bishop by the Western Jurisdiction, as the regional body had previously elected Bishop Karen Oliveto in 2016 and Bishop Cedrick Bridgeforth in 2022, both in defiance of the denomination’s rules prohibiting the ordination of noncelibate gay clergy.

Earlier this year, at the UMC General Conference, delegates voted overwhelmingly to remove from the Book of Discipline rules that prohibited the ordination of noncelibate homosexuals, the blessing of same-sex unions, and the funding of LGBT advocacy groups.

This came after more than 7,000 mostly conservative congregations had left the denomination over the ongoing debate over LGBT issues, as well as the refusal of many progressive UMC leaders to enforce the rules. It is no longer the United Methodist church and I am sure John Wesley would be appalled at what it has become.

Jesus told us that this would be an end-times sign: an apostate church.

And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.Matthew 24:10-13
