  The former Newsboys Member Michael Tait, has been found with allegations of watching rape, and preying on two minors who were boys ( https://cbn.com/news/entertainment/shame-and-tragedy-john-cooper-issues-bold-proclamation-michael-tait ). This is rocking the Christian community when many have been still recovering from the sexual scandals in the Southern Baptist Churches and the Roman Catholic scandals.  I find myself personally effected because I preferred Newsboys when Michael Tait was lead singer, especially songs like “We Believe” which is a shortened Apostle’s Creed song, and their version of “Holy, Holy, Holy.” Now I will not be able to listen to Tait and those versions of the songs just as I will not buy or look at Thomas Kinkade’s paintings after he left his Wife Nanet and family to be with mistress. Sin can taint your witness, especially sin as vile as Tait is alleged to have done.  So many Christians in the limelight fall like stars. There was Jimmy Swagger wi...

  I have seen all The John Wick films. Something you can say about them is the action never disappoints, and the plot is not difficult to follow. Getting to explore the world of assassins and the rules that govern their lives is something that we as Christians may have pause over, for this world no doubt exists, and to whisper about it even feels dpangerious. That said when a Spin Off was announced, In The World of John Wick: Ballerina, which would focus on a woman assassin who is ever as badass as Mr. Wick, I had reservations that this was from same place that has tried to usurp men from their place in stories, for example Star Was with Kathleen Kennedy’s “The Force is Female!” And the clear retcons in the Star Wars Saga to make women seem superior as in Ahsoka, with Master Tano herself besting The Chosen One, and in The Acolyte, two twins who were created by the dark side, making Anakin’s immaculate conception seem trivial. This has been the agenda, to supplant Man and promote wo...

  It seems rational as Christians that we should marry Christians. It makes sense, that you would want Christ at the center of your Covenant marriage. The pitfalls of marrying an unbeliever is not only how it will effect potential children with unbelief, rather you afe marrying the devil, “You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the commander of the powers in the unseen world.He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God.” (Ephensians 2:2). At any moment that person can be an agent of the evil one to torment you. While it is true Christian spouses ars not devoud of swlfihisness, the flesh, and demoninc influences m, the difference is that they do not harbor the evil one inside them (Ephensians 2:2). They can be influenced bu mmy him as Peter was (Matthew 16:23), but being potentially influenced is not the same as being possessed, and utterly dominated as a unbeliever can be by the demonic.  The greatest Biblical rebu...

  Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia is becoming rampant in the West as worldwide people have 150 Million people have Dementia. That number is estimated to triple by 2050. This means more and more Christian households are bound to be facing a loved one who has Alzheimer’s and Dementia. What is very difficult about the disease is that the person does not wither on the outside but on the inside; they look the same while they change inside in thinking, word, and deed. They who may have been a robust prayer warrior and even teacher of the Faith can no longer remember the basic doctrines. I have experienced with is family member who has Dementia, they even espousing heresies, when they had a hand in training me in Sola Scriptura. What are we do do when a pastor or a mighty person of faith or good Christian becomes demented? What do we do when a gentle soul who radiated the Holy Spirit now has a harsh Sun Downers where they damn you to hell and even physically assault you?; when the hands ...

  In this world there is a great lack of mercy. People, in the church and the world are ready to “crucify” anyone who they wish to see justice, and who they are stirred up to hate. What if it was you and people were baying for your judgement? Worse, our LORD was in that position, people crying “crucifying Him!,” (Luke 23:21), and few save Pontius Pilate sought some mercy for Him.  In this age of interconnectivity, people have become a large pool of that crowd crying for crucifixion on Reddit, Social Media, Forums, Discord, iand more. Rather than consider, what if your day is coming when someone with crucify you before others over a mistake or misdeed, people get the rocks or comments ready to join in revelry over someone’s day of judgement. How tragic that we human beings have lost compassion, and mercy, and allow ourselves to be like people asking for nails to be driven in Jesus’ hands, and feet, rather than the faithful disciples standing by cross weeping and speaking to Him...

  I am convinced what will destroy humanity is the same sin that destroyed Satan, pride. I talk to humanists and atheist and they say things like “eternity I cannot fathom, and sound horrible with no ending,” or “God is all knowing, that must be boring or suck.”  The fact that people in their hubris would presume to judge God and say what they think something they cannot possibly understand or know like eternity and omniscience baffles me. One person I speak with is so determined to believe only reason and science is reality, and they deny the higher reality of Christ. They are so wise in their own eyes, when Jesus is the source of all wisdom, “Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:2-3). And yet this person’a life is full of misery and pain, they will not allow anyone to pray for a miracle for them, to lay on hands, because they trust in science.. it is like watching someone on fire, and you keep saying, “drop and roll!” And they d...
