False Christian teachings, trends….
The 5-minute Newsmax video of this post explains the tension between Fox News and President Trump. I really wasn’t aware of it, and was a bit surprised to hear of it, even though I watch a brief video or two from Fox everyday…. If you were not aware of it, then this video shows a couple of examples.
“There is only one protection against the temptations of Satan. It is the breastplate of righteousness. You’ll never get righteousness without godliness. You can multiply your police force, you can build better prisons, you can staff them with psychiatrists, you can try and uplift people and educate them. It doesn’t touch your problem.” ―Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones …History shows that moral and righteous periods follow religious awakenings while unrighteous periods follow a decline in Christianity. …Deliverance from condemnation protects us from temptation by removing despair and hopelessness.
Dr. Lloyd-Jones contrasts the hopeless state of mankind apart from God, dead in sin and under the influence of Satan, with the miraculous intervention of God’s grace. He emphasizes that the gospel is inherently supernatural and divine, beyond human comprehension or ability. Using examples like Mary and Nicodemus, he shows how even devout people can stumble over the miraculous nature of God’s work.
In the John Anderson interview of this post, Melanie Phillips explains how two groups that hate one another, the woke and the Jihad, join together in a common cause of hating the west. Her assessment brings clarity to many things happening in America presently.
Melanie Phillips is a very reasonable voice in the political realm. She did a great job of explaining the twisted logic of the leftist mind as it justifies supporting Hamas.
This post contains a 5-minute video interview of Newt Gingrich by Levin on the matter of federal judges who are wrongly trying to assert authority over elected government officials. It supports the last post on deportation.
This post contains two videos, the first discussed the Trump admin deportation of violent gang members to El Salvador’s CECOT prison. Afterward, it shows clips that explain how Obama, Hillary and Bill Clinton dealt with and talked about immigration and deportation; the second video is a 10-minute tour of El Salvadors prison by CNN.
Spurgeon’s words in today’s devotional are very encouraging, as usual. But not all his devotionals are equally inspiring, encouraging…, this one is among the best I have read. Furthermore, it overlaps with the last post by MLJ, that is why I’m posting it too.
In the Christian life, one must fight a daily battle against the accusations of the devil. How then do they fight against these accusations and respond by living in the truth of the Bible? When Satan tries to distract and condemn them with their imperfections, failures, and unworthiness, how do they respond in a way that keeps their focus on God and not themselves? In this sermon on Ephesians 6.14 titled “Putting on the Breastplate,” Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains how the breastplate of righteousness protects the Christian from these accusations by reminding them of who they are in Christ Jesus. [This is MLJ’s last sermon on verse 14 in this 67-part series. It is different from others on this verse. I pasted in all the scriptures mentioned in the points by MLJTrust]
This post contains Curtis Bowers’ Agenda Weekly video and several videos that support his content. He answered questions from the issue of last week [which I also posted] and then explained how the cult of Humanism has undermined the biblical family unit, and the roles of man and woman. I listed via bullet points, the topics he briefed listeners on. [The cover image of this post is from an ABC article on the connections between satanism and social justice, relevant topic]
