We’re One Nation Under God NOT Allah!

2

This might be my most important blog so far in 2026! I hope you’ll read and share. Ignorance of what’s happening in our culture today is not bliss it’s foolish!

“My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.” Hosea 4:6

I was shocked when I saw on Tucker Carlson’s Facebook page what he posted from his podcast monologue on March 17.  “If you’re having trouble remembering the last time we killed a religious leader, it’s because we haven’t killed any religious leaders, at least not openly, because we don’t want to start religious wars, because they’re hard to fight and very hard to resolve.”—Tucker Carlson

Tucker was calling the brutal tyrannical Ayatollah who killed Americans and thousands of his own people simply a “religious leader!” Iranian “religious leaders” just publicly hung a nineteen-year-old Iranian Wrestling Olympian and two other teenagers who dared protest the current regime. That doesn’t sound “religious.” That’s barbaric tyranny!

Here was my comment on Tucker’s Facebook post:
“He’s calling the man who killed and tortured thousands of his own people and wants to do the same to Americans a “religious leader”? Seriously?? Islam is NOT a religion it’s a tyrannical death cult ideology. You would think someone like Tucker would know the difference between a religious leader and a pathological tyrannical killer.”—Janet Thompson

Tucker Carlson recently told the story of having a nightmare where he struggled with a monster in his sleep and woke up with scratch marks on his body. I’m wondering if he wasn’t struggling with a demon and the demon won. Tucker has been off the rails on Israel and Iran along with many other topics. This blog is not about Tucker, but if a once intelligent, investigative journalist that many of us admired when he was on FOX News could be so deceived, it’s no wonder that many Americans are also.

See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual force of this world rather than on Christ. Col. 2:8

New Yorkers who voted for a Muslim Islamist Communist are paying the price for their deception.

There are so many things I’m learning from my study of this false “religion” and its followers’ goal of making Islam not simply the dominate religion in the world, but the dominate government!

That’s the irony of the Biden Administration so hungry for power that they would let in millions of undocumented Islamists into the country thinking that they would all vote Democrat. They might actually do that in the beginning, but only long enough to get themselves into power and then they would dismiss all the ignorant Democrats who won’t know what hit them . . . maybe even literally.

What Democrats and Islam have in common right now is that both reject God and His Son Jesus Christ. The left wants to strip Americans’ identity by telling them you can be your own god and be whatever you want to call yourself. You want to be a woman, put on makeup and a dress and invade women’s sports. You want to be a cat. Put on a tale and pee in a litterbox.

The left’s power comes from breaking Americans into adversarial identity groups that go to war against each other. Whites. BLM. Jews. Palestinians. White liberal women. Suburban women. Gays. Trans. Evangelicals. “Progressive Christians.” On and on . . .

Disunity instead of unity.

When everyone can be your own god, Islam fills the gap. That’s why Islam is partnering with the left’s godless progressive liberal platform and not the conservative right which believes we are a country founded on Judeo/Christian values. The left and Islam both reject this premise.

In last week’s blog, FlashPoint Where Faith Meets Current Events, I pointed out that Democrats are embracing an unlikely partnership with Islam to try to block Christians’ political influence. Another unusual partnership “Queers for Palestine” are opposing twin demonic spirits. They link up around their mutual hate for God and the West with the same goal of destroying Judeo/Christian values. This draws two forces together that have nothing in common. In Palestine and Iran, the queers would be thrown off buildings, and they still will be when Islam is finished getting their votes.

Because of this alliance, President Trump is right when he says after the “death of Iran,” the Democrat party is America’s “greatest enemy.”

Islam Is NOT a Religion. It’s a Death Cult!

In the early 7th century CE, Islam was founded by Muhammed ibn Abdullah, a pedophile who at age 54 married a six-year-old and consummated the marriage when she was nine! He had eleven wives and dozens of concubines. He supposedly was a “prophet” who received divine revelations that became the Qur’an. Reading the Qur’an, that “divine revelation” is obviously from Satan.

Any pseudo religion founded and spearheaded by a mere person is a cult, not a “religion.” Islam is a death cult that kills its own people and the “infidels” who don’t succumb to Islam. Muhammed died. Jesus Christ died, rose again three days later, and lives today to save people from eternal death.

Not every Muslim is radical, but all Islam is radical. Islam is incompatible with the West. There’s no “moderate Islam.” The Qur’an is radical. 

“There is no radical Islam—Islam is radical.”—Gene Bailey, FlashPoint

Islam is 50 years into a 100-year plan to take over the world.

Islam is a political ideology masquerading as a religion. They hate the Jews because they are proof that God exists which is why Jews come under attack so often. Islam’s goal is to first takeover Israel the “little Satan” and then America the “big Satan.”

Iran isn’t just the center of a nuclear threat; it’s also the center of Islamic terrorism. President Trump working with Israel to dismantle the Islamic regime is protecting America from physical and governmental threats from the outside. But thanks to Biden, there are Islamists inside America and sleeper cells just waiting to be detonated.

Before the takeover by Islamists, Iran was a free democratic nation. A tragic example of what happens when citizens don’t recognize the enemy from within as Texas state representative Nate Schatzline points out in the above meme.

Islam’s goal right now is to get 10% of our population radicalized. Their biggest test targets are Texas and California. In Texas alone, there are 48 new mosques in the last two years and they’re trying to build self-contained Islamic communities. Texas just had to put on the ballot that Sharia Law isn’t allowed in Texas, but there are states like Minnesota where it’s already happening. Even here in Idaho, we passed a law against Sharia Law in our red state.

The top 10 Muslim populated states are New York, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Texas, Michigan, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. Check out your state here.

Mosques aren’t churches like we know church. They are command infiltration centers preparing for war against the innocents in our country. You, me, and our families. They actually store their arms and ammunitions in the mosques and brag about how many church buildings they’ve bought and turned into mosques to worship Allah, not God.

They are literally Islamic Nationalists with the goal of Islam overtaking and ruling America. Yet, the Democrats call us Christian Nationalist because we want a country that honors the Constitution and God. We’re not looking to make America a theocracy, but Islam is focused on doing exactly that only their god is Allah and they want to replace the Constitution with Sharia Law.

The Democrats Are Actually Helping Islam!

Pay attention to how many Muslims are running for office as “Democrats.” In the November 7, 2025, election, 42 Muslims were elected to public office! The fake news celebrated this as “Political inclusion . . . The rising participation of Muslims in politics represents a shift from marginalization to empowerment, signaling a new chapter in America’s democratic story.”

That should alarm the reader who understands the goal of Islam in America.

Islam is an Arabic word that does not mean peace it means submit and only naive or uniformed pastors, Christians, and politicians would not know this. There’s only peace in Islam after everyone submits to Islam’s empowerment.

Only one faction of Islam is religious. They have no separation of church and government. The “church” is the government, and Iran is a perfect example. That’s why Tucker’s comments about a theocratic militant regime that’s intertwined into every aspect of life was so ludicrous. Dare I say, ignorant.

Islam is diametrically opposed to our Constitution and to Christianity. Islam cannot co-exist with either one.  Muslims will use parts of our Constitution like “freedom of religion” and pretend to be a religion to advance their cause. They will even pretend and lie to agree with our Constitution until they get into power. Mamdani is a perfect example.

“Holy Lying” or “Sacred Deceit” is called “Taquia” in Islam. No matter how smooth and nice they might sound, the Qur’an tells them lying to infidels (us) is permissible to achieve the goals of Islam. So everything Mamdani, or any Muslim candidate, says in their campaigns are lies masking their intentions. They feel no guilt, remorse, or need to apologize. You can’t believe anything they say!

The Democrats are the same. Look at Virginia Governor Spanberger who ran as a moderate and no sooner did she take the oath then she turned hard left. That’s why Islam feels comfortable partnering with Democrats . . . for now until Islam doesn’t need them anymore.

What legitimate “religion” honors lying to achieve goals instead of telling the truth? That has other gods besides The God? That murders anyone who doesn’t submit to their beliefs? Islam is diametrically opposed to Christianity and the Constitution.

How Islam Gains Power

There are three phases to Islamic takeover, which you can readily see is already happening in Egypt, European countries, and Australia. America is next.

  1. Claim minority status.
  2. Claim grievances.
  3. Cry victim. You need to help us because we’re being disadvantaged in some way. Think Muslim Illhan Omar and the Somalis.

Then they take power over the jurisdiction. When they infiltrate and grow in all areas from schools, justice /law system, business, commerce, medical field, politics, government. . . they soon dominate and then claim majority status.

Muslims: Immigrate. Agitate. Infiltrate. Dominate.

Ethnic Hispanics are turning to Islam in TX and CA. Islam gives them license over the “white man.” Islam has prayer beads and honors Mary, which is familiar to Catholics who often haven’t read the Bible so they’re ripe to read the Qur’an. Islam does not recognize or believe in Jesus.

Christians Must Be Equipped with the Truth!

Pulpits need to present the truth that there is only One God. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. His name is Yahweh. If you ask Muslims, “What’s the name of your God?” They answer, “Allah,” which is god in Arabic. They don’t know who their god is.

”It’s not a religion, but a political system run by terrorists. It is designed to overtake and control every other civilization.”—Terri Bailey FlashPoint

We need pastors and Christians walking in courage who aren’t afraid to talk about our role as Christians in today’s dangerous culture. Islam is strong in their evil intensions. Weak Christianity will fall and fail. Paul warned there would be those who talk like us, sound like us, but they’re weak and deny the power we have in Christ. No operational Holy Spirit in their life.

The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 1 Tim. 4:1-2

If anyone teaches otherwise and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, 4 they are conceited and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions 5 and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. 1 Tim. 3-5

We can’t go to church without intending to do what we hear. Pray before church and when reading your Bible, “Lord speak to me.” Go to church expecting to hear God. Uncompromised. Leave with a winsome boldness for sharing and living the Truth to overcome the lies of the world.

God will use the foolish things of the world to shame the wise.

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 1 Cor. 1:27

The church is where the battlefield begins. Christians must remember that we serve God alone. We can’t mix with or “tolerate” other beliefs and religions that want to destroy Christianity and our country. Satan puts on many faces but his main goal is always to steal, kill, and destroy. We must remain vigilant and wise.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10

I’ve given you a lot of information. Not to scare you, but to make you vigilant and wise. This is a spiritual battle and if you live by the Holy Spirit you are in the battle, whether you want to or not. We fight this battle not for ourselves but for our children and grandchildren. (Ephesians 6:10-18)

FlashPoint Where Faith Meets Current Events!

3

Today’s Monday Morning Blog is going to be a bit different. Dave and I had the opportunity to attend FlashPoint Live Boise March 12-13, 2026, and I’m going to share some of the highlights with you.

If you’re not familiar with FlashPoint, here’s a summary of their weeknight broadcast where host Gene Bailey always closes with: “We’re always to the right of center.”

What is FlashPoint?
This is where faith meets current events!

FlashPoint is a unique melting pot where we dive into the news, current events, and pressing political issues of our time with Christian politicians, pastors, business leaders, and influencers to press into what God is saying in this season.

The world and the church are in a new season, do you sense it? The call of Reformation has gone out! Our call is to speak the Biblical truth, pray, activate, and equip our viewers to affect culture for Jesus!

Listen to interviews, expert analysis and genuine conversations. Live Monday through Friday nights at 7 PM CT. FlashPoint goes where mainstream media and churches are often too afraid to go.

How to Watch Flashpoint
Dave and I watch FlashPoint nightly on the Victory Channel or YouTube. They’re also on Rumble or go here to learn of other broadcasting sources.

It isn’t a joke that much of mainstream media spouts nothing but Fake Anti-Trump news and sadly many gullible viewers believe their unverified, distorted, biased, liberal leaning lying commentaries. Even  FCC chair Brendan Carr warns broadcasters must ‘correct course’ on ‘news distortions’ before license renewals!

That’s why we get our news with the truth and a biblical perspective at FlashPoint.

We’re also looking forward to going to Israel with FlashPoint at the end of next month and I’m sure I’ll have much to report from there. Please pray for us as this trip is still going forward. For now, let me share some important points made during Flashpoint Live Boise.

Israel

—Ezekiel 12 tells us that the devil hates God, His People and Israel. Podcasters like Tucker and Candace Owens are dipping into the occult as they speak against Israel.

—The conflict in Ezekiel is a war of conquest, but there’s also hope of redemption because God Himself will awaken the earth.

–Trump is the Great Interrupter!

“Occupy Until He Comes” Luke 19:13

What you don’t occupy will be occupied against you!

–Example the Boy Scouts have been going “spiritually gay for a while.” They’re now offering Scouts an “Islamophobia Awareness Month Badge (IAM)” in collaboration with the Muslim Scout Fellowship. Scouts learn about Islam and connecting Scout and Islamic values!

–We’ve traded righteousness and truth for tolerance and apathy. We need to be less tolerant of evil and more direct and intolerant of sin like Jesus who was divisive!

—Tolerance comes from Satan. Tolerance=acceptance=gottcha dominance.

—Satan and his minions only attack what he’s afraid of which is why the enemy is going after children [I wrote about this last month The Devil Always Reveals What He’s Afraid Of]

–Demons attack the church wherever we’re tormenting them.

–Wherever there’s a spiritual vacuum, a demonic imposter rises up to fill the void. Education is a perfect example as students are being taught to hate America, each other, and the body God gave them. [I wrote about this last month too. Only Jesus Can Fill the Spiritual Vacuum!]

—Pietism in the church says Christians are supposed to remain separate from culture. That’s not biblical. We’re to be in the world to make disciples, but not of the world. When we give up ground, Satan grabs it. We all have spiritual gifts. When we fail to use them to occupy for Christ, Satan steps in and takes ownership.

—The spiritual battlefield is whatever your gifts are wherever your giftedness takes you! You have to disturb the peace of complacency. If you believe in something, you have to do the hard things even when it’s not popular.

—The Democrats know that much of MAGA are Christians and 70% of Trump’s cabinet is Christian. They also know that 30% of Christians don’t vote because they’re fooled by pietism thinking it’s not our job to get involved we’ll be raptured anyway. The Bible doesn’t support Christians not taking ownership of the culture. [I wrote last week about the liberal left trying to promote a fake faith twisting the Bible to match their liberal ungodly platform. Christian beware! We’re Living in the Birth Pangs of the Endtimes]

—Wherever hell has the most influence, the church must be involved. Go Ye into the culture to take territory for Christ. Like Moses had help holding up his arms while Joshua went into battle to claim territory, the church should be supporting those who are on the spiritual and political battlefield.

—Don’t be preoccupied—occupy!

—Age doesn’t restrict you from getting involved for the Lord. Wherever your passion is, God can use you. Maybe as an intercessor.

Islam

–We’re inviting wolves into our domain by not standing against Islam.

—Democrats are embracing an unlikely partnership with Islam to block out Christians and their political influence.

–Another example: “Queers for Palestine” are opposing twin demonic spirits. They link up around their hate for God and the West with a mutual goal of destruction of Judeo/Christian values. That’s what draws two forces together that have nothing in common. In Palestine, the queers would be thrown off buildings and they still will be when Hamas is done with them.

—Islam is incompatible with the West. It’s a death cult.

–We have no agreement with Muslims.

—A reply to the “islamophobia” argument you might receive: “In America we have Christian freedom. Name an Islamic country where we could go and practice Christianity?”

—A reply to you’re supposed to love your neighbor: “There’s nothing in the Bible that says we’re to tolerate sin or evil that subverts the public good.”

—A reply to you’re intolerant and not accepting: “There is only One God and the 10 Commandments tell us to have no other gods but our God.

—How do we say no to today’s culture? We refuse to tolerate ideologies that oppress Christianity. Islam is a political oppressive ideology masquerading as a religion to take advantage of “religious freedom” in America. What if MS13 says it’s a religion? Would you say we have to honor it as a religion?

–Is there any Muslim nation people are trying to get into?

–Why Not Sharia Law? (A FlashPoint digital free download)

Iran

—Trump is the providential leader raised up by God to take down tyrannical rule in Iran.

–The Lord will march forth like a mighty hero;
    he will come out like a warrior, full of fury.
He will shout his battle cry
    and crush all his enemies. Isaiah 42:13 NLT

—We’re in a season of fear vs faith.

—Christians need to focus on what God is doing NOT Satan.

—Cowards are the first people thrown into the lake of fire in Revelation 21:8.

—Fear comes from lies.

—Trump is our era’s Elijah as he calls out false prophets of the lying fake news, which tries to invoke fear. The devil dominates through fear.

Keep America Great By Keeping It Good and Godly!

—As the dark gets darker, the light gets lighter (2 Tim. 3)

–Jesus’ kingdom is here on earth with Christians who are occupying now. The closer Jesus gets to earth, He’s invading Satan’s darkness which pushes Satan closer near his end.

—Be expectant! Heaven’s closer than it’s ever been!

—Learn how to say “Yes” to saying, “No” to anything that goes against the sovereignty of God and America. As Americans, we accept no other gods but God, and no other rules and laws of other countries here in America.

–We say “No” to our kids doing harmful or wrong things because we love them.

—We must learn how to say “No” to anything that offends God or threatens America!

If you haven’t read last week’s blog, I hope you’ll read it now.

We’re Living in the Birth Pangs of the Endtimes

2

We’ve become so accustomed, maybe even numbed, to chaos and craziness in our world today that we may be missing the warning signs that God is giving us as He brings His Word, the Bible, to life. Conservatives and Christians claim not to tolerate evil, yet we haven’t done much to stop it over the years. As a church, we’ve almost become compliant. Complacent.

Satan is rapidly taking advantage of the lull before the storm.

I could list many areas, but I’ll limit to two today, where I feel we’re in the birth pangs of the pre-endtimes before the Lord will usher in the seven-year tribulation (Dan. 9:27, Matt 24:21, Rev. 7:14). Both dead and living true believers and followers of Jesus Christ will be raptured to meet Christ in the air before the horrendous treacherous tribulation actually starts (1 Thess. 4:16-17, 1 Cor. 15:51-52).

By true believer, I don’t mean calling yourself a “Christian” because you grew up in a Christian family or go to church faithfully on Sunday. I don’t mean religious or a theologian. I mean born again! Heart cleansing, Holy-spirit filled, life change. A repentant follower. A believer that Jesus died on the cross for your sins and rose again in three days and that Jesus is the ONLY way to salvation and eternal life and you have asked for and received His merciful forgiveness.

Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, unless you are born again, you cannot see the Kingdom of God.” John 3:3

Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. John 14:6

I often wonder, how much worse is the Lord going to let it get before He says enough?!

The Bible is clear that none of us can predict the day or time of the rapture. It could come while I’m writing this blog or while you’re reading it. But God does say there will be signs we are to take notice of and do something about NOW while we have breath. The Bible tells us to be salt and light in a dark and hurting world, not sit home trying to shield ourselves from the chaos or ignore the evil of those signs.

“You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it salty again? It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless. “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. John 5:13-14

Satan has a way of convincing us that if it doesn’t affect me or my family personally, I don’t want to or need to get involved. Or infusing us with false humility. “Who am I to make a difference? What could I possibly do? I’m just an ordinary person trying to get by in a world gone crazy.”

Those thoughts or excuses aren’t from God.

I’m reminded of Amos 3:7 “Indeed, the Sovereign Lord never does anything until he reveals his plans to his servants the prophets.” I don’t claim to be a prophet, and you might not be either, but we are His servants. I’ve been gifted with a discerning spirit and have spent the past 31 years serving the Lord in About His Work Ministries. I see and hear things I’m not expecting and the Lord wakes me up at night before I write a blog and tells me what He wants me to write. It’s not always easy to write or read, but there are specific and tough verses in the Bible that we can’t ignore.

So that’s the intro into what I want you to think about in this blog. I’ll just cover a couple birth pangs here, but there are more.

  • Wars

 And you will hear of wars and threats of wars, but don’t panic. Yes, these things must take place, but the end won’t follow immediately. 7 Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world. Matt. 24:6-7 NLT

President Trump has been settling many wars, but the Ukraine/Russia war rages on because the country’s two leaders cannot agree on how to stop it.

Currently, America is involved with our ally Israel in toppling an Islamic tyrannical regime in Iran who sought to annihilate both of our countries. I wrote about this in last week’s blog if you haven’t read it. After 47 Years of Bondage God is Using Our 47th President Prophetically in Iran.

It’s worth noting that 53 House Democrats voted against a resolution declaring Iran a state sponsor of terror, even though during the Biden Administration a similar resolution garnered 100% vote in favor. “That’s 53 Democrats who have lost their minds.” Karoline Leavittt.

Senator Fetterman was the lone Senate Democrat to vote against a Democrat sponsored resolution seeking to limit Trump’s war powers.  

“I don’t know why we can’t just be honest,” Fetterman said. Good question!

  • The Rise of a False Christianity

“The time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching… and will turn away from the truth.”  2 Timothy 4:3–4

The Democrat party has been steadily moving toward an anti-God agenda and losing the Christian vote. They’ve paid consultant firms millions of dollars to try to win Christians back, but because they’ve denounced a biblical worldview, Satan has become their advisor.

Johnathan McCullough Sr. Founder of Urban Conservatives of America, whose motto is “Lover of God, family, and country. Advocate of truth,” says, “The entire Political establishment on the left is demonic.” Not that it should matter, but it seems today it does with all the false claims of racism, Johnathan McCullough Sr. is black, another demographic the Democrats are losing.

When I read McCullough’s statement, it echoed what I’ve been saying now for a long time. Tell me one thing Democrats stand for that’s biblical? Their entire platform is anti-God and hate Trump.

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. 2 Tim. 3:1-5

The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left. Even as fools walk along the road, they lack sense and show everyone how stupid they are. Ecc. 10:2-3

Blue run states and cities have the highest crime rate in America. They support lawlessness by making themselves sanctuary cities for criminals and Soros backed DA’s. They made their priority clear during the State of the Union when they refused to stand to agree that government’s most important job is to protect American citizens and not illegals and criminals. Of course, they couldn’t stand for that because they do just the opposite.

I keep asking when John Fetterman is going to leave the Democrat party because he seems to be the only one who is bucking the evil coming from that side.

Detroit, Michigan State Representative Karen Whitsett, announced she’s leaving the Democrat party at the end of her term because she could no longer be a Christian and represent the Democrat’s policies.

“For me, it is impossible to be a faithful follower of Jesus Christ while remaining a member of the Democratic Party as it exists today. I cannot reconcile that platform with Scripture,” she said. “Those who understand, understand. Those who don’t, don’t. At the end of the day, every knee shall bow, and every tongue will confess. My responsibility is to stand in truth and walk in obedience — not to win approval,” Whitsett wrote on Facebook.

Whitsett cited issues including abortion, the normalization of homosexuality, and the push to redefine gender as problematic for her. “I don’t have a Heaven or Hell to put anyone in. Only God does. But I do have God’s unwavering Word to stand on, and I can no longer compromise it to fit a party platform or to please people.”

Someone just wrote on FB “Trump could order a strike and kill Satan, and the Democrats would side with the devil.” Actually, they’ve been siding with the devil for a long time, but most people aren’t willing to call it out. Not that Republicans are saints. Both sides have their problems, but the Democrats have become openly on the wrong side of the Bible and God, and it’s time we stop being polite and start speaking the truth. We advise Christians to vote your biblical values but fail to contrast the left’s anti-biblical values and morales.

The Democrat party has redefined their “morality” based on their political agenda and we see this clearly exemplified with the Texas State Democrat Congressman now running for National Senate, James Talarico, who claims to be a Christian, was a teacher, and is even in seminary. The Dems hope that his constant talk about the Bible will win over Christian voters who aren’t paying close attention!

Here are some of James Talarico’s outlandish statements and actions twisting Scripture to justify evil political policies:

–“Jesus has helped me reckon with my own whiteness, my own masculinity . . .” Talarico has called white men the greatest domestic terrorism threat in America.

–Filed legislation requiring school districts to hire DEI officers.

–His record should alarm every God-fearing American. On The Joe Rogan Experience Podcast, Talarico twisted Scripture, claiming the angel’s visit to Mary proves “God approves of abortion” because “creation requires consent.”

–Criticized the overturn of Roe v. Wade as “unchristian!”

–Publicly declared, “God is nonbinary” while fighting to put boys in girls’ sports.

–Voted against 10 Commandments in Texas schools and has 0% pro-life voting score.

–Said the Bible doesn’t talk about homosexuality. (Lev. 18, Romans 1, 1 Cor. 6)

–Talarico demands “fundamental policy shifts” in Texas and the nation—pushing open-border policies critics call amnesty-first, abolishing ICE-style enforcement, and rewriting laws to favor progressive ideology over biblical truth and border security.

–Criticized conservative Christians, claiming that atheists and Muslims are more Christlike.

–During his first sermon preaching at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, Talarico argued, “I want to acknowledge that our trans community needs abortion care, too,” He said, “Defending trans Texans is something we have to do every day at the state Capitol.”

–Sent a letter to President Biden urging him to lease Federal land, offices, and employees for abortion clinics, and to ignore/ban state laws restricting abortion.

–Claimed there are six genders during a 2021 state Legislature hearing.

–Said in a sermon: “The American flag is such a complicated symbol for most of us. And in many ways, like Jesus, like the cross, it’s been co-opted, and in some ways, its true meaning has been betrayed.”

You can’t make this stuff up in its absurdity and heresy, and he’s one of the ones himself betraying Christ. Yet, he calls himself a “Christian” and sadly, true to the devil’s schemes in these birth pangs days, people are identifying what he says with Christianity and the Bible!

And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other.  And many false prophets will appear and will deceive many people. Matt. 24:10-11

But if someone claims to be a prophet and does not acknowledge the truth about Jesus, that person is not from God. Such a person has the spirit of the Antichrist, which you heard is coming into the world and indeed is already here. 1 John 4:3

Talarico has an anti-christ spirit and the Democrats are trying to use it to their advantage as a prototype for future candidates if they’re able to fool enough people with this poor fool!

I could go on, but he is the left’s new rising star. A heretic and blasphemer.

An RNC spokesman said, “There isn’t a woke cause that he won’t claim to find buried in the Bible. Twisting Christian principles to promote woke talking points might play well with coastal elites in New York and California, but he’s going to learn real quick that won’t fly in Texas.”

The problem is it has worked in Texas! People voted for him, and on social media, many defend and agree with Talarico’s twisting of Scripture.

“Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. Matt. 7:15 NLT

Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 2 Cor. 11:14

Talarico claims to be a Presbyterian. That denomination split years ago over the very woke evil issues he champions now. He is part of the “progressive liberal ‘Christian’” movement, which by its very name is NOT Christian. There’s no such thing as “progressive Christianity” or “liberal Christianity” or “conservative Christianity.”  Only Biblical Christianity.

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)

“I the Lord do not change.” (Malachi 3:6)

“All Scripture is God-breathed… for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.” (2 Timothy 3:16)

The Bible doesn’t change with culture. The culture that outlasts time is the culture that continues to adhere to the inerrant Word of God as it’s written.

C.S. Lewis warned against what he called “Christianity and water,” a faith diluted until it simply reflects the culture around it.

“They” [the left] grabbed the term “progressive” which makes people think they are positive, forward thinkers. There is nothing forward-looking about totalitarianism. It’s as old as language. . . By surrendering our language and terms to them, conservatives have allowed liberal radicals to use words that are familiar to the average citizen and trick him or her into thinking they mean one thing while they are actually saying another. And make no mistake: Language matters . . .The ability to control language allows for the manipulation of men. ” Charlie Kirk

What Can True Christians Do?

The church and Bible-believing Christians should be the gatekeepers of morals. Politics has entered our church realm. They’ve swerved into our lane and for too many years, we’ve let them define morals and now even Christianity.

If we don’t speak out and speak up, their definitions will become the norm, and we’ll be considered the fringe or fanatics. Already they’re trying to re-engage the term Christian Nationalist and make it sound harmful that we would love God. Family. Freedom. They’re goal is to keep us, and thus truth, out of the public square.

This is not the hour to be quiet and “nice.” This is the hour to speak truth. Truth is not hate. Truth is love. Deceit is death.

Jesus continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You belong to this world; I do not. 24 That is why I said that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am who I claim to be, you will die in your sins.” John 8:23-24 NLT

I heard a new term, as a counter to the left trying to control language and intimidate us.

Christian Patriotism!

I wrote a blog two years ago How to Respond When Labeled a “Christian Nationalist!” Now they’re trying to reignite this term to sling at us, but we can just sling it back at them as we’re proud to be patriotic Christians!

“Shout with the voice of a trumpet blast.
    Shout aloud! Don’t be timid.
Tell my people Israel of their sins! Isaiah 58:1

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed…” (Romans 12:2)

After 47 Years of Bondage, God Is Using Our 47th President Prophetically in Iran!

8

Before awakening Saturday morning to learn that America and Israel had joined forces to attack Iran, I’d planned to write about my response to the State of the Union (SOTU), but that almost seems like old news now. However, I understand why President Trump waited until after the SOTU before launching this Iranian attack because he wanted the American public to observe a few things first.

Who would stand with him in Operation Epic Fury and who would immediately object? Actually, who would object to anything he does or says?

During the SOTU, with few exceptions, the Democrats sat on their hands with scowls on their faces, some even yelling and harassing him as if they were at a protest rally. Democrats who abdicated their congressional duty by boycotting his speech held a bizarre event with jungle posters, furies, profanity-laced rappers and speakers, disgraced and fired former newscasters, and a Trump-hating fowl-mouthed washed-up actor. They think that F-ing everything is going to win them votes instead of cringes and repulsion.

For those who did attend SOTU, we saw the stark contrast between Republicans and Democrats.

A tale of two different countries. Two different sets of morals and values. Good vs. evil!

  • Republicans: “USA, USA, USA!” Democrats: “KKK, KKK, KKK!”
  • Republicans stood and clapped for American families. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for combat veterans. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for strong borders. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for secure elections. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for Angel Families. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for No Tax on Tips, Overtime, or Social Security. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for Parental Rights. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for a 5 year-old severely injured by an illegal with a commercial truck license. Democrats sat and sulked as she smiles and waves.
  • Republicans stood and clapped for the crying parents of Iryna Zarutska murdered by a career criminal. Democrats sat and sulked.
  • Republicans stood for a woman whose school & doctors pushed gender transition on her behind her parents’ back. Democrats ignored her as a man dressed like a woman sat amongst them.

The final Trump zinger: “Stand if you agree: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”

Republicans jumped to their feet whistling and applauding loudly.

In front of millions watching, Congressional Democrats remained seated and scowling.

Trump rightfully called the Democrats “Crazy” and chastised, “You should be ashamed of yourselves.”

So is it any surprise that in the dark of night, 10 minutes before President Donald Trump even announced that the U.S. and Israel had attacked Iran, a network of U.S. nonprofits aligned with China, Russia, and Tehran swung into action. Even as the initial bombs were dropping, they activated foot soldiers to hit America’s streets with ready-made anti-U.S. talking points signs.

Why China and Russia sponsoring the protests? Todd Starnes answered that question well:

“Do you understand the significance of what is happening in world affairs right now? This was never just about Iran. This was about Russia and China – and putting both of those nations on their backs on the global stage. This was about protecting the American people from a nuclear Iran. This was about protecting our great ally from being annihilated. And if President Trump succeeds in defeating Iran, this will be the greatest foreign policy achievement in modern political history.”

What Does the Bible Say About America’s Operation Epic Fury and Israel’s Roaring Lion?

The following is by Facebook friend Jan Blount Martin shared with permission.

“If you’re criticizing the fact that the United States and Israel have joined together to take down the regime in Iran, you are biblically illiterate.

The place “Israel” was given to the Jewish people as their nation . . . If you think God has forsaken the Jewish people because they are not “religious” as they once were, you are again, biblically illiterate. The number of times the Jewish people disappointed God because of their decisions to wander away from him are many, yet God never broke covenant with them because his covenant with them was everlasting and God does not break his covenants.

The evidence that he did not break covenant with them was that in spite of the many times that they forsook him, he still sent his son to be their Messiah as He had promised them, which was the very foundation of his covenant with them. And for the record, Christians did not replace the Jews, but are grafted in to God’s covenant with the Jews because of what Jesus did on the cross.

Too many people who are spewing their hate for Israel, are mistaking a place with a people. I am an American born and raised, and who is running my government does not define me. America is a place but Americans are people. Israel is a place but Israelis are a people who are descendants of Jacob and the 12 tribes which began with Jacob‘s 12 sons. Jacob was not a place. He was a person who was renamed Israel.

God loves and protects his children, regardless of where they live or who their government is. Iran is a threat to us all. They hate Jews and Christians alike. America is considered a Christian nation just as Israel is considered a Jewish nation, and Iran is a threat to us both.

I have said all of this to say; God bless President Trump for being willing to take action with Israel to take down the biggest terrorist regime in the world! May God bless and protect our military troops, and may we as Americans support and honor those willing to serve.” 🙏✝️✡️🙏🇺🇸

‘47’ Helps Free Iran After 47 Years!

Iran was biblically and historically Persia until 1935 when the name was changed in an effort to modernize the country and promote a unified sense of pride among its citizens. In 1979, Iran underwent an oppressive Islamic regime revolution, which has held power for 47 years!

President Trump is now our 47th President. He was also our 45th President. He tried to become our 46.th Many of us lamented that election was stolen, but it’s evident today that God had a different plan for President Trump for such a time as this.

Whether or not you like President Trump is irrelevant to biblical and historical prophecy.

In Isaiah 45, God calls pagan political leader Cyrus, the King of Persia, to let the Jews return from Babylonian exile and rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem, earning Cyrus a unique status as a divinely appointed liberator in Jewish tradition.

When Trump became the 45th president in the 2016 election, many people saw the parallel between him and Cyrus. Trump did what many previous Presidents promised but never did. On December 6, 2017, he relocated the American Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and America recognized Jerusalem as the capital city of the State of Israel!

Today, as the 47th President, Trump is working with Israel to free Iran from 47 years of Islamic tyranny. Lisa Daftari, an Iranian American, describes the past 47 years after Iran’s Islamic Revolution overthrew the U.S. backed Shah in 1979:

“Let me be very clear: America did not start a war with the Islamic Republic. The regime declared war on us [America] in 1979, when militants stormed our embassy in Tehran, seized American diplomats, and held 52 of them hostage for 444 days. Since then, the regime and its proxies have targeted our service members, our diplomats, and our partners across the region through terrorism, rocket and drone attacks, and assassination plots.

They have built and directed a vast network of militias and terrorist organizations that have attacked U.S. forces and allies in Lebanon, Iraq, the Persian Gulf, and beyond, and they continue to explore options for asymmetric attacks, including the potential use of covert operatives and sleeper cells right here against Americans at home and abroad. This has been the regime’s established playbook for nearly 50 years; it’s just that most American presidents decided to ignore or in some cases, fuel, this threat.

So no, President Trump did not ‘start’ a war with Iran’s regime. Together with Prime Minister Netanyahu, he made the difficult and consequential decision to confront and, ultimately, end it. And yes, the Iranian people, the broader Middle East, and we Americans will be safer for generations for it.”

Following is a personal testimony of someone who witnessed the takeover of Iran by Tehran’s Islamic Republic regime:

“47 years ago, I stood at a window in Tehran as a 3-year-old boy, smelling burning tires and hearing the chants that would steal my country. I didn’t have words for what was happening. Today, I am watching smoke rise over the same city — but this time the smoke is not the end of Iran. It is, God willing, the beginning of her resurrection.

Several weeks ago, I wrote that the fever of 1979 was finally breaking. I never imagined I would wake up to see that fever confronted so directly. Israel — with the clear support of the United States — has launched a preemptive strike deep into Tehran and against the regime’s military machinery. Explosions in the capital. Military targets hit. The IRGC’s aura of invincibility, already cracked, is shattering in real time.

I do not celebrate war. No decent person does. What I celebrate — what millions of Iranians inside the country and in the diaspora have prayed for in secret for decades — is the possibility that a regime which has no right to exist may finally be forced to go.

This is the same regime that:

– Armed and cheered the October 7 massacre against Israel for no reason other than pure genocidal hatred.

– Murdered tens of thousands of its own sons and daughters who dared to walk peacefully in the streets demanding the most basic freedoms.

– Gouges out the eyes of young women for the “crime” of wearing makeup.

– Hangs teenagers from cranes for posting a tweet.

– Exports terror, poverty, and darkness to every corner it can reach including the U.S.

No nation, no people, should have to live under that. Not Israelis. Not Americans. Not Lebanese. Not Syrians. And certainly not Iranians.

I am a physician who has spent his life trying to heal bodies and a son of Iran who has spent his life mourning a stolen homeland. What we are witnessing is not aggression — it is surgery. Painful, necessary surgery to remove a tumor that has metastasized for 47 years. The tumor is the Islamic Republic that has hijacked Iran.

To the brave pilots and special operators of the Israeli Air Force and the men and women of the United States military now carrying out this mission: I pray for you with everything I have.

May God shield you from harm. May every missile find its target and every soldier return home safely to the families who love them. You are not invaders. You are the answer to the prayers of millions who have whispered “enough” in the dark since 1979. You are giving our friends the chance to breathe free air again. The entire region will owe you a peace we have not known in my lifetime.

To my fellow Iranians watching from inside the country right now, heart pounding, maybe hiding in basements or on rooftops: Hold on. The end is clearer than it has ever been. The regime’s fear is real. Their eyes — those same eyes that once stared down at us with absolute power — now show something they haven’t shown in decades: panic. The math has changed. The window of 1979 is finally closing.

To the little three-year-old boy I once was — and to every little boy and girl in Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz, and Tabriz today who hears explosions instead of lullabies: This time the sounds are not the closing of a door. They are the opening of one.

The road ahead will not be easy. Transitions never are. But the direction is unmistakable. A secular, prosperous, free Iran is no longer a dream — it is becoming an inevitability.

I have lived the stolen life so that others might not have to. Today, for the first time in 47 years, I allow myself to believe that the stealing is almost over.

Thank you, Israel. Thank you, America. The Iranian people — the real Iran — will never forget.

The fever is breaking.

The dawn of 2026 is here.

And this time, the light wins.“– Testimony written by Houmand David Hemmati, MD, PHD

Randy Kay Ministries encourages: “But hear me: God is not surprised. This isn’t a time for politics, but it is a time to turn your life over to Jesus because He’s definitely not surprised with what’s happening right now and it will all work out to His glory either here or in eternity.

God’s not wringing His hands in Heaven. He told us these things would happen. Jesus Himself said in Luke 21:28: ‘When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.’

This is not the time to cower. This is the time to rise and stand up for Jesus.”

Amen!

Which brings me back to the State of the Union when President Trump asked everyone in the room to stand if you believe that the government’s first duty is to protect American citizens, not illegals and the Democrats stayed seated. Now, we’re watching in real time, the majority of Democrats criticizing President Trump’s actions to protect America from Iranian nuclear obliteration. Putting partisan politics over our protection, Democrats would rather let the Iranian tyrannical regime nuke Israel, “the little Satan,” and then come for America “the big Satan!”

Is that who you want governing America? If the Democrats ever get back in power again, they will undo all the good the Trump Administration has done to protect us from evil within and outside our borders.

Iranian-American Democrat Moj Mahdara told Dana Bash on CNN about the freeing of Iran: “This will be like ending the Soviet Union, the Berlin Wall.” She continued, “This is a transformational moment for humankind, for security, and as an American, as an American, this is in our interest to complete it. So, I am a Democrat, I have been a huge Democrat. I am incredibly disappointed with my party. I do not see myself in them in this moment,” she added.

So, I Janet am asking, even if you’re a Democrat like Moj Mahdara and it goes against your party, will you stand up for protecting America and God’s chosen people in Israel and freeing the Iranian people?

Next, I’m asking will you stand up unashamedly for Jesus in the public square, in your family, in your workplace, everywhere and anywhere God takes you outside the church walls?

I pray your answer is, “Of course!” Because voting biblically and living biblically is how we’re called to occupy until Christ returns for His church and it seems very clear that could be in some of your lifetimes . . . maybe even in mine!

Pray for peace in Jerusalem. May all who love this city prosper. Ps. 122:6 NLT

A time for war and a time for peace. Ecc. 3:8 NLT

“This isn’t just a political shift. This is prophecy colliding with time. The veils are lifting. The trumpets are sounding. The era of fear is over, and the era of the Liberator has begun.

​Bondage broken. Destiny reclaimed. History is ROARING.” –Afshine Emrani

Come, everyone! Clap your hands!
    Shout to God with joyful praise!
2 For the Lord Most High is awesome.
    He is the great King of all the earth.
3 He subdues the nations before us,
    putting our enemies beneath our feet.
7 For God is the King over all the earth.
    Praise him with a psalm.
8 God reigns above the nations,
    sitting on his holy throne.
9 The rulers of the world have gathered together
    with the people of the God of Abraham. Psalm 47:1-3, 7-9

PS I’m sorry for the length today. This is such an historically biblical time and there’s so much to say about it. Thank you for reading to the end.

The Devil Always Reveals What He’s Afraid Of!

3

On November 8, 2021, I wrote a blog, “They’re Coming for Our Children.”

Well, “they’re” still coming for our children.

Who are the “they”?

Liberal left Democrats . . .

Legislators. Congressional representatives. Governors. Sexual perverts. Rainbow, Trans, Drag cults. Sexual ideology (I don’t even want to honor it here with their initials). Woke. DEI. Schools. Teachers Union. Some teachers. Medical professionals. Surgeons. Hospitals. Doctors. Judges. Islamists. Socialists. Atheists. Liberal media. Sex traffickers. Perverts. Radical activists.

They are knowingly, or maybe unknowingly, the devil’s pawns.

They’ve become disciples of demonism.

They’re advancing the devil’s agenda to destroy the minds and morals of pliable young children.

They claim to want accountability for the Epstein files, while thousands of unaccompanied children were trafficked over the border and lost during the Biden administration!

They campaign for the murder of children in the womb up through birth and babies surviving botched abortions are by law left to die in states like Oregon!

They stump for the horrific sexual mutilation of children by the medical profession and in San Diego last week a judge literally forced a hospital to keep mutilating and destroying children’s lives. The epitome of demonism.

They want young school age children exposed to X-rated books as young as kindergarten. A teacher in Nashville who didn’t want to read a mandatory “language arts curriculum” book about same-sex marriage to his first-grade class was reassigned to a lab position, even though he asked for a religious exemption which was denied.

“The principal indicated that the belief in same-sex marriage is so fundamental to the language arts unit that Mr. Rivera could not possibly be permitted to teach in any portion of the unit, and therefore had to be removed from the first-grade classroom,” according to First Liberty who represented the teacher.

In Florida, a school board voted to keep a graphic animal sex book on school library shelves and there are so many other examples of this in school libraries.

How does any Christian teacher teach today without violating their Christian beliefs?

You’ve probably seen disgusting video clips of gay and trans crossdressing teachers bragging about how they discuss their sexual preferences and liberal Trump-hating political beliefs with their young classes. Is DEI forcing schools to hire these radical teachers?

CBN News broke the story about Secretary of War Pete Hegseth firing a FT. Bragg teacher who identifies as a “trans wolf” with the name ‘Lilith Deathhowl.’ Parents had been upset since early 2025 that administrators hadn’t taken action to remove the teacher after he engaged in “disturbing behavior” that involved dressing in feminine clothing in class, as well as wearing a dog collar with fetish tags and an animal tail.

A letter from Liberty Counsel, which had been calling on the Department of Defense Education Activity to remove the teacher from the classroom, reported that the teacher had involved children in his sexual fetishes by:

  •     telling students he turns into a “wolf” at night – his fetish animal;
  •     directing them to howl like wolves;
  •     requiring them to call him by some of his online wolf character names;
  •     requiring his students to address him by inaccurate female names and pronouns;
  •     and telling the children he is “actually a woman” who “likes boys.”

Parents reported that their children felt scared and anxious after the teacher flaunted his sexualized persona. One mother told Liberty Counsel that her daughter expressed fear, saying, “Mommy, I’m scared he’s going to come eat me,” referring to statements the teacher made about turning into a wolf at night. 

School principals and teachers are encouraging children to walk out of school and become anarchists protesting ICE law enforcement.

Teachers can’t talk about Jesus; but they can talk about perverted sex, fetishes, and politics to groom young children?!

Why Are Our Children Under Attack By Satan?

Answer: The devil hates God and children are created in God’s image. Christian families have the potential to produce little Christians, which Satan hates.

The devil hates school choice!

The devil is afraid the young are going to rise up and be a source of revival and his rival in America.

So he’s killing them through abortion or drugs.

Or destroying their bodies and minds with sexual identity confusion, fetishes, hormones, and mutilation surgeries.

Addiction to electronics and social media.

Radicalizing them to acts of violence, where they’re often killed.

Suicide.

Whether a Christian or not, discerning people know that a young child who isn’t old enough to live on their own, drive, buy alcohol, fill a prescription, even buy aspirin, vote, or get a tattoo or their ears pierced without parental permission, shouldn’t make decisions that medically and physically alter their bodies and reproduction capabilities for life.

Yet the rainbow mafia, trans lobbyists, and advocates have convinced the left to champion not only tolerance of trans ideology, but encouraging and in some cases legally forcing, parents to let their children be castrated and mutilated.

Big medicine saw the value of having a patient for life knowing that biologically a man cannot become a woman or vice versa no matter how many body parts you cut off or how many hormones you drug them with.

God made us either a man or woman for life, but many people bought into the devil’s lie and used children as a demonic experiment that has destroyed the lives of millions of children, some of whom are now old enough to realize the damage they were allowed to do to their body and are winning malpractice lawsuits.

That’s a wakeup call to the medical cash cow. Instead of raking in money for mutilating children, they’re now forced to pay. Money can never replace what these children have lost.

Even the Plastic Surgeons Association is admitting that surgically mutilating children is a horrendous practice. The AMA also issued a statement recommending these surgeries be deferred until adulthood, but hopefully they too will adhere to President Trump’s executive order when he first took office to stop this medical malpractice on innocent children and fearmongering their parents into compliance.

A plastic surgeon who trained at a major Manhattan hospital is now apologizing for failing to “speak up” after witnessing minors as young as 13 undergo “irreversible” gender surgeries.

“As a father to three young children and as a physician who took an oath to do no harm, I failed to speak up, and I just want to thank President Trump for having more clarity on this,” Dr. Ira Savetsky said on “Fox & Friends.”

Now he’s speaking up because the hospital he works at after pressure from President Trump’s threat to cut off funds is discontinuing their “Transgender Youth Health Program.”

The doctor’s defense for not speaking up sooner: “You work so hard to get there… you don’t want to make waves.”

Savetsky now questions the pressure families receive when their child questions their gender. “I can only imagine what the parents were going through. I mean, they’re told that their child is going to kill themselves if they don’t have these surgeries. They’re pressured, and what are you supposed to do? You’ve dropped everything to do the right thing for your child, and I think that, unfortunately, there was a lot of financial motivation with these institutions.”

Dr. Savestsky knew transgender surgeries on children was wrong and went against his oath to do no harm but he didn’t want to jeopardize his own career. He was a coward. He didn’t speak up until President Trump made it easier for him.

He and his profession are responsible for the children who after having their physiological system flooded with hormones and multiple surgeries commit suicide. Or turn violent and go on shooting sprees often being killed or killing themselves. No man should ever experience PMS nor a women become masculinized.

God didn’t create us to try to become something we’re not.

While liberals have imposed tolerance, affirmation, and acceptance, these children didn’t receive the qualified mental illness treatment and access to spiritual counseling they needed. It’s like instead of getting psychological and medical help for a child with anorexia, you instead let them starve themselves to death while affirming how great their deteriorating body looks. What doctor or parent would ever do that?

This debate isn’t about hate—it’s about medical ethics, child development, and parental rights. Riley Gaines, an advocate for keeping men out of women’s sports, argues that doctors should help kids and parents navigate confusion with care and patience, not label them as “born wrong.” For many parents, that’s a reasonable line: protect children from irreversible decisions while they’re still growing.

Kids deserve compassion and caution. Most families believe major medical interventions should wait until adulthood, with parents—not activists or institutions—making those calls. A serious issue deserves honest discussion, evidence-based medicine, well-documented research, and respect for families.

Trans ideology must be treated as the demonic threat that it clearly is to everyone. There’ve been multiple shootings, including of family members, at the hands of transgenders.

Other types of mind radicalization by a violent and assassination culture have seen young men recently committing heinous crimes, assassinations, and attempted assassinations. When we woke up this morning to the news that there was an intruder at Mar A Lago carrying a gas can and gun, I knew before I heard it that he would be young. He was 21!

Satan sadistically laughs at violence and murders, especially those that take down children.

Sadly, Christians often aren’t good at standing up for truth.

Good people often tell truth poorly, while evil people tell lies well.

After all, the liars are getting their marching orders from the father of lies!

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. John 8:44

The Devil is Afraid of the Next Generation!

Praise God, many in the next generation are going back to church and reading their Bible even as the devil is using the left to try and make it ugly for them, especially for Turning Point USA (TPUSA) kids. These kids have experienced the contrast of good and evil. They saw a 31-year-old man who was trying to rescue them from the devil’s grip assassinated by a young man with a trans, furry male lover.

The devil’s attempt to stop Charlie Kirk’s ministry to youth has backfired.

Justin Streiff, Chief Operating Officer for TPUSA, explains the evil TPUSA is encountering as they’re exponentially growing after the murder of Charlie Kirk. “That [ugly] has always come with the territory when you’re speaking truth deep in the belly of the beast… But this semester is different.”

Then he shares what some of the kids have been experiencing in the most hostile semester they’ve ever faced…Satan is turning up the heat:

From coast to coast, high school and college students who dared to stand for faith, freedom, and this great nation have been stalked, slandered, threatened, and in some cases — physically attacked. 

All for saying what you and I know to be true: 

That America is worth defending. That speech must remain free. That Charlie Kirk’s life and legacy meant something. 

Despite the opposition — our students didn’t back down. 

They didn’t run. They didn’t hide.  

They showed up — earlier, louder, and stronger than ever before. 

But not without cost. 

TPUSA reports that in spite of all the harassment on campuses their students aren’t folding.

They’re still tabling at campus events.  

They’re still meeting after school — still recruiting, still growing.  

They’re still passing out pocket Constitutions and American flags.  

They’re still launching chapters in hostile territory — places where they’ve been told, outright, that they’re not welcome. 

And while their peers stage “ICE Walkouts” and chaos in the halls… 

Our students are gathering to pray — for their schools, for law enforcement, and for this nation — quietly around their school’s flagpole.  

That’s because these students made a decision — the same decision Charlie challenged them to every day: “It doesn’t take skill to be courageous. It takes a choice.” 

They chose courage.  

They chose to stand for faith, freedom, and family. They chose to defend everything that makes this country worth fighting for.  

They truly are the courageous generation.  

TPUSA Kids & Those Like Them Make Satan Afraid!!

Pray for the next generation to keep making Satan afraid and for them to stay strong against this enemy.

To keep the faith.

To remain courageous.

To give Satan something to worry about!

“Because demons long for bigger and more interesting prey — a meal they can play with for a while before devouring it. . . A nation that cannot say, “this is a baby and he deserves protection” will soon be unable to say, “This is a child and she [or he] deserves protection.”—Seth Gruber, White Rose Ministry

PS “The incident on February 22 at Mar a Lago isn’t just a security breach; it is a call to intercede for a broken world where hearts are often consumed by darkness. We find solace in knowing that while ‘the horse is made ready for the day of battle, victory rests with the Lord.’ Let us stand in the gap, praying for the families of the fallen, the mental well-being of our youth, and the continued ‘divine hedge of protection’ over our nation’s leaders and future leaders.” Prayer from a Facebook friend

Only Jesus Can Fill the Spiritual Vacuum in America!

4

Last week’s blog was Pray for America to Remain: One Nation Under God! I hope you have read it, but if not, maybe stop and read it now because our nation is under attack from the enemy and that enemy has a name, Satan!

Satan has already mastered lower hanging fruit like Europe, Canada, Australia, Iran, Russia, Mexico, and much of the Middle East, but the prize for the Devil would be the United States of America. The only thing preventing his success are righteous, patriotic, Bible-believing, God-fearing, Holy Spirit filled, Jesus Christ Followers.

  • Not simply “Christians.”
  • Not “Religion.”
  • Not Government.
  • Not Conservatives.
  • Not Republicans.
  • Not Politics.
  • Not the White House.

I hope most of you gave a resounding “Amen” because Jesus is clear, if you’re not with Jesus all the way, you’re against Him which means you’re with the Devil.

“Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters. Matt. 12:30

We’re still one constitutional Republic of America, but after the Super Bowl Halftime fiasco, it’s obvious we’re not one nation culturally or morally. You have to wonder how an American iconic formally family-friendly venue deteriorated into a demonic X-rated anti-American gay-gyrating, crouch grabbing, filthy Spanish-speaking event broadcast on national television and streaming waves.

How did Jesus followers let it go this far wrong?

You might think I’m overstating, but I’m not. Yes, I know “Bad Bunny” (that was the first clue he should’ve never been given this platform) is technically a Puerto Rican American, but his show did not represent or celebrate America. While we didn’t watch it at our house, I’ve read enough to know it was an attack on ICE removing illegal criminals from our country and finding lost children! His lyrics were in Spanish because they were so sexually explicit and vile I couldn’t read the translation. Children who know Spanish heard that trash. Currently the FCC is going after the station and the NFL for violating decency standards on television. I hope the fines are large and serious.

An Unexpected Artistic Testimony!

Watching the continual demise of the NFL, and specifically the moral decay of the Super Bowl halftime shows, was Charlie Kirk’s “obsessive” concern. What for many years was an American family sport and tradition right up there with the Flag, Mom, and apple pie has descended into demonic halftime shows with little pushback and this troubled Charlie greatly! Turning Point USA in Charlie’s honor offered a family-friendly alternative halftime show, watched by 6.5 million on YouTube alone with millions more watching on social media, OAN, Daily Wire, Real America’s Voice, or like us on TBN.

There were no commercials or advertisements at TPUS’s All American Halftime Show, just country music as a celebration of “faith, family, and freedom” with an unexpected artistic testimony which sent the liberals spinning.

TPUSA incurred pre-game criticism advertising Kid Rock as their lead performer. I too was curious about that, but I heard him interviewed the prior week where he said he would have a surprise during his performance. He also framed the contrast between the two halftime shows: “He’s (Bad Bunny) said he’s having a dance party, wearing a dress, and singing in Spanish? Cool. We plan to play great songs for folks who love America.”

The week before the Super Bowl, the NFL asked Bad Bunny to tame down his show, which he had touted as a tribute to queerness, so maybe that’s why he didn’t wear a dress.

During the TPUSA halftime show, we endured Kid Rock’s first performance of one of his early distasteful songs while wearing shorts and a fur coat with smoke and flashing lights on the stage. Then there was a beautiful husband and wife instrumental hymn presentation on a cello and violin, which at first, seemed like an odd follow up to Kid Rock’s wild performance.

Then “Robert James Richie” was announced and there stood “Kid Rock” in blue jeans, a jean jacket, and a Detroit trucker’s hat strumming a guitar under a single spot light. If you didn’t watch it, here is what he said. “One Sunday morning I woke up thinking about the song, ‘Til You Can’t.’ Something or someone spoke to me that there was another verse that needed to be added.”

“There’s a book that’s sitting in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off.”  There’s a man that died for all our sins hanging from the cross. You can give your life to Jesus and He’ll give you a second chance. ‘Til you can’t.’”

He then sang the entire song and with the permission of Cody Johnson, added the new verse at the end that God gave him, which he wrote after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. The performance ended with photos of Charlie Kirk and his widow, Erika, and their two children followed by the Bible verse Isaiah 6:8 “Here am I send me.”

As we know, God can and does use the people we least expect to share His message. Kid Rock definitely has a checkered past, yet that same man looked into the camera and told America to dust off their Bibles, give their lives to Jesus, and take their second chance while they still can.

It seemed like Kid Rock was showing with the first song, this is where I was, and with the last song as his given name Robert Richie, this is who I am now in Christ, my second chance. The left chose to criticize his first song, completely missing the point of the instrumental interlude before the last second-chance gospel song.

A Facebook friend described this so well:
“He [Kid Rock] was once lost like all the people he was naming in the first song but is now born again thanks to his faith in Jesus. Professing the name above all names and showing through a public display who his life belongs to now. That was pretty epic in my opinion!! Great job, Robert Ritchie. The old is gone and the new has come. He is a new creation in Christ Jesus!

 To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. Eph. 4:22-24

 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”– 2 Corinthians 5:17

“Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy.” – Micah 7:18

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”– 1 John 1:9

And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” –John 8:7

Many were quick to throw the first verbal stones because those without Christ don’t understand mercy, grace, repentance, forgiveness, and salvation. They hang onto everyone’s past while often ignoring their own.

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23

The Gospel is Spiritual NOT Political!

Sharing the Gospel at TPUSA was labeled by some on the left and lying media as “political.”

Folks, that’s the crux of our problem. We’re letting the left and the media define spiritual as political just like the Romans and spiritual leaders did in Jesus’ day. They’ve politicized what we know is spiritually and morally wrong and Christians haven’t fought hard enough to keep political out of spiritual. We let the liberal God-denying left intimidate us and we even tolerate their complete misunderstanding that there is nothing about separation of church and state in our Constitution or Bill of Rights.

So many Christians have used this lie as an excuse not to stop the evil the liberal left has imposed on our nation. They fight harder for evil than we fight for good. Evil is celebrated and God is demonized in our culture today!

We’ve let this spiritual vacuum occur as Satan fills people’s brains with demonic beliefs and practices.

  • Sadistically murdering innocent babies and calling it “women’s healthcare.”
  • Same sex marriage an abomination to God.
  • Perverse sexual grooming of children in schools.
  • Mentally ill children sexually mutilated and their symptoms tolerated instead of treated.
  • Sexually explicit and morally degenerate alternate lifestyles permitted in entertainment.
  • Unvetted illegals invading our borders and our communities.
  • Wokeness
  • Attacking ICE for arresting illegal criminals and rescuing 3364 unaccompanied missing children in Minnesota alone.
  • Storming churches.
  • Too many evils to list.

The only English words in Bad Bunny’s horrible presentation were a token “God bless America” after he had just trashed America and named Latin American countries waving their flags including Canada and Puerto Rico.

When asked about him speaking the entire show in Puerto Rican Spanish, BB said, “English is not my first language. But it’s okay; it’s not America’s first language either.” This is where the left is taking us and Christians have allowed this spiritual vacuum to occur.

Don’t Let the Ungodly Fill the Spiritual Vacuum!

After BB had just showed hate for America, there was a closing sign in English, “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” The decisive factor in that phrase is it’s always the devil’s definitions of love and hate. I’ve been called a hater for sharing godly biblical principles and love. Maybe you have too. The Bible to unbelievers is a book of hate. Anything they don’t agree with is hate. We’re hated for showing the love of salvation that only Jesus offers.

Franklin Graham is also sounding the call to action to fill this spiritual void to save America. He warns that the moral foundation of our nation is cracking and this is no longer a distant threat.

“We are standing at a crossroads. The darkness isn’t just coming; it’s already here—entering our homes, our schools, and our hearts.”

Graham says what we’re witnessing—social unrest, hostility toward people of faith, and deep cultural confusion—is not merely political or social. It’s spiritual. A real battle for truth is unfolding, and discernment has never been more urgent.

He cautions that deception doesn’t only come from outside the Church, but often from within—where “itching ears” prefer comfort over repentance, affirmation over transformation.

“There are many who have the appearance of godliness but deny its power.”

His call is clear and uncompromising:

📖Examine your heart

📖Know your Bible

📖Return to the Ancient Paths

📖Be ready for the return of Jesus Christ

This is not a time for lukewarm faith or cultural Christianity. It’s a time for repentance, truth, and courage.

America doesn’t need better messaging.

It needs a spiritual awakening.

🙏May we hear the warning—and respond while there is still time.

Til You Can’t!

Our pastor today made a comment as we studied John 7:37-38. “When you’re thirsty enough, you’ll drink from anywhere. People are so spiritually thirsty today they’re drinking from streams that are making them spiritually sick.” They need to hear about the fountain of living water, Jesus Christ.

On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” John 7:37-38

If you’re a Jesus follower, have you shared Jesus with someone who is spiritually thirsty? Have you spoke out and stood up against cultural and spiritual atrocities? Islam is strategizing and positioning to fill the spiritual vacuum and thirst in America. It’s a spiritual race between Allah and Jesus. We know who wins in the end, but who are we going to let win in America in our lifetime?

Saving Women’s Rights and Sports!

2

I’m reading Charlie Kirk’s last book published posthumously, Stop in the Name of God. The first chapter is titled Genesis 1:1 with the opening Scripture, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” You might think that’s elementary since most Christians know this verse, or should, but Charlie devoted the opening of his book to reaffirming this fact. Sometimes, even Christians need to go back to the basics of the creation story, including how God in Genesis chapter 2 created a man and a woman as unique and separate individuals.
 Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Gen. 2:7

But for Adam no suitable helper was found. 21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs[b] and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib[c] he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. Gen. 2:20-22

Since the beginning of time, the physical distinctiveness of male and female has been an established biological, scientific, and biblical fact established at conception and revealed at birth until science invented ultrasound to determine sex in the womb during pregnancy and gender reveals became the rage.

When I was pregnant, the ultimate surprise was in the delivery room when the doctor announced to a panting exhausted new mother that she had just given birth to a boy or girl. That might seem archaic to some now, but other moms will remember with me how we waited with great anticipation to learn the sex of our new baby. While anticipating the birth of our baby, we decorated with neutral colors and enjoyed the birth gifts when friends and family learned whether we needed pink or blue baby clothes.

I’ll admit though that ultrasounds have been used to save many babies lives as the expectant mother sees her baby is a real little person developing in her tummy with fingers, toes, arms, legs, eyes, ears, a nose, and mouth. So even though God’s sex reveal at birth is outdated now, the redeeming value is more babies born. Praise God!

However, sci-fi wasn’t satisfied with knowing pre-birth sex, they started trying to play God by altering the foundations of humanity. First psychologically. Then ideologically. Ultimately physiologically. The medical community who take the Hippocratic Oath to preserve life decided they could dabble in genetics and try to distort and transform men into women and women into men, while originating a new term “trans.”

But no amount of chemicals, drugs, hormones, surgeries, or brainwashing will ever alter or transform a person’s DNA, chromosomes, muscle, body and bone structure that God created for every individual within their mother’s womb. The heretical, immoral, unethical, evil people in the scientific, psychological, and medical field making trillions of dollars with patients for life will never replace God, but God will judge them.

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Ps. 139:13-14

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Matt. 18:6

Do not those who plot evil go astray? But those who plan what is good find love and faithfulness. Pr. 14:22

The vocal rainbow coalition activists combined with the abuse of modern medicine to create, deceive, and foster genetic confusion and bodily castration and mutilation with the fallacy that just wanting to identify as a different sex is achievable. It’s not! Unethical psychologists and physicians saw this as the cash cow that it is and political lobbyists for the homosexual community created a cult where schoolteachers were forced to use the language of a world gone mad.

The downfall into denouncing God and the Bible started with the legalization of same-sex marriage under the Obama Administration. It’s become diabolically degenerating since then with rampant pedophilia, child sex trafficking, men in women’s bathrooms, spas, dressing rooms, locker rooms, private areas, and sports. Even conjuring up terms like “furries” “trans” and “cis-woman.” The confirmation of Supreme Court justices like Ketanji Brown Jackson who can’t define a woman, even though she is a woman herself is insanity! [The Bizarre World of Ketanji Brown Jackson by Everett Piper]

Or recently, when Senator Josh Hawley asked OB-GYN Dr. Nisha Verma, a woman, for a simple yes or no if men could get pregnant, she wouldn’t answer! More insanity!

Coming off Obama’s disastrous years, coaches and school administrators fearing cancel-culture refused to protect girls and keep men out of women’s sports. Parents were often rebuffed if they complained, even when their daughters were forced to room with men on travels. The girls who were brave enough to protest were shamed, silenced, and told they had to acquiesce to men playing on women’s teams if they wanted to play sports. But one by one, especially after swimmer Riley Gaines lost her trophy to a man who she tied because the political optics were better for him to be in first place, girls started speaking out.

The liberal left and Democrats have made this a political issue and tried to cancel or fire anyone who wouldn’t go along with trying to eliminate God from His creation by allowing men to be publically recognized and treated as women. There’s no such thing as a “transgender woman or man.” God only creates men and women!

Currently a Democrat man is masquerading as a woman in Congress and in Idaho one is running for governor! Sadly, even some churches decided to become more culturally and “socially” correct than biblically correct, which would require eliminating most of the Bible starting with Genesis 1:1.

Saving Women’s Rights and Sports

Title IX was passed in 1972 to insure equal opportunities for women in sports. But over the last decade, men have invaded women’s sports as fake gender ideology has seared consciences and culture. Title IX was passed because men and women are different. The Biden Administration tried to alter Title IX’s definition of sex to include gender identity but it didn’t pass. Still most blue states deny women their Title IX rights.

Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 1 Tim. 4:2

Idaho and West Virginia established laws protecting women in sports in their states. The Supreme Court heard two cases last week involving men suing to play in women’s sports in these two states. Girls had their day in court!  

I’m proud to say that Idaho, where we’ve lived for almost fifteen years, was the first state to take legal action to protect our girls in sports in March 2020 by passing House Bill 500 “Fairness in Women’s Sports Act” implementing the nation’s first transgender policy barring trans female athletes from playing on women’s sports teams. West Virginia then passed a similar law. Alliance Defending Freedom’s (ADF) helped draft those bills, as did the Idaho Family Policy Center in Idaho.  

Male students “identifying as women” challenged the state’s laws and the ACLU represented them. Idaho and West Virginia appealed to the Supreme Court, which accepted both cases. SCOTUS usually doesn’t take on two similar cases, but because they each bring up different issues, one against the Constitution and one against Title IX, SCOTUS heard both in the same day.

Since President Trump signed an executive order specifically restricting federal funds to schools that allow males to compete on women’s teams under Title IX, 32 states have passed laws to protect women in sports. Despite the majority of states now banning men from women’s athletics, 18 states still allow males who claim transgender status to compete on women’s sports teams, posing a risk to the safety and fairness of female athletes. 

I encourage you to listen to this short interview Defending Biblical Truth in Women’s Sports, with ADF’s Kate Anderson and Fearless’ Cissie Graham Lynch, Franklin Graham’s daughter.

SCOTUS Showdown: ACLU lawyer stumped by basic biology

During the Supreme Court hearing arguments on the Idaho and West VA cases, Justice Alito asked ACLU a simple question: “What is a man? What is a woman?”

Their answer? “We don’t have a definition.”

Yes, you read that correctly. This was the definition debate heard around the world.

If the so-called guardians of “civil rights” can’t even define sex, how can they claim to defend it? This is the collapse of common sense, live in the highest court of the land.

It was hard to hear some of the judges like Amy Coney Barrett using non-terms like “trans women” and “cis women” instead of men and women. I’m sure she would call herself a woman, not a cis woman! Men pretending to be women are not “trans” or “women.” They’re mentally disturbed men, have a fetish, or can’t excel in men’s sports so they want to eviscerate women. Whatever their reasons, it’s wrong and not normal, legal, moral, or biblical!

Testosterone levels do NOT determine, define, or erase biological sex, bone and muscle structure, strength, or DNA, which is what the opposing side was trying to argue to SCOTUS. Listening to the side who can’t define a man or a woman was pathetic. Women are more than hormone levels!

It was also disappointing to have so much time given to the “feelings” and “fairness” of men being excluded from women’s sports. Identifying as a woman does NOT make a man a woman. There should’ve been more discussion given to the feelings and fairness to women who lose scholarships, scholastic and career opportunities, trophies, medals, not to mention being exposed to lewd voyeur men who still have all their male parts in locker rooms, showers, and private areas. In what world is that fair or safe for women?!

Let me mention also that even though Governor of California Newsom has admitted in interviews with both Charlie Kirk and Ben Schapiro that men in women’s sports isn’t fair and he can see the other side, I’ve read his excuse for allowing men in women’s sports in his state is because he has a “trans godson.” Just because our child, grandchild, or godchild chooses an alternate lifestyle doesn’t make it okay to inflict it on others. Enabling a confused child instead of engaging mental help for them does more harm than good.   

In last week’s blog, Respect and Appreciate the Men and Women Who Keep Us Safe by Enforcing the Law, I introduced you to Janet Elaine Parks. I hope some of you started following her on social media. Here are some of her remarks last week about SCOTUS hearing the women’s rights cases.

Protecting Women’s Rights (Because Women’s Spaces Should Stay Female)

This is one that the left loves to weaponize… But conservatives are not “anti-anyone” for saying a basic truth:

Men are men. Women are women.

And women deserve:

  • private spaces
  • fair competition
  • basic safety protections

This administration supports keeping biological men out of women’s sports, bathrooms, locker rooms, and private spaces.

  • That isn’t hateful.
  • That’s reality.
  • And pretending biology doesn’t exist doesn’t make society “inclusive”…
  • It makes women pay the price.

Women fought for decades to earn:

✅fair sports opportunities

✅safe boundaries

✅sex-based protections

And now the left is trying to erase those protections by calling women “bigots” for wanting what we already had: A protected category called WOMEN.

Bodies Play Sports, Not Identities

In the opening picture of this blog, former champion gymnast Jennifer Sey, a seven-time member of the United States women’s national artistic gymnastics team and the 1986 U.S. All-Around National Champion founder of the XX-XY Athletics brand, is sounding the alarm arguing women’s sports are for women and warning that “identity affirmation” is replacing fairness and safety. I encourage you to read more of her comments here.  http://dlvr.it/TQP5Py

I want to thank Idaho for defending women not just in our state, but going all the way to the Supreme Court to protect women in every state for our daughters and granddaughters in the future.

Pray SCOTUS stands by biological women’s rights, protection, dignity, and recognition that mentally challenged men cannot challenge women in sports or erase womanhood. Pray for wisdom and discernment as the justices deliberate. The cases before SCOTUS last week are not just about isolated incidents in two states. The justices’ decision will shape how our girls are able to do what they love—and feel safe doing so—for generations to come.

This is not a political issue. It’s a Genesis issue and comes down to the biblical definition of God creating us male and female. Together let’s stand fearlessly for what’s right. Let’s pray the Supreme Court determines that girls are girls and boys can’t become girls in Idaho, West Virginia, or any state in America!!!

An article to read. We Were College Athletes Supreme Court Must Listen to Our Case and Save Women’s Sports written by two female college athletes from Idaho, Madison Kenyon and Marky Kate Marshall, defendants in the Idaho case heard by SCOTUS last week. Here’s their opening and I encourage you to read the rest of the article from girls who have experienced the heartbreak of having men in women’s sports and taking over 890 medals from female athletes.
 “Imagine if the U.S. Supreme Court was asked to rule on whether the law of gravity still applies, even in these early years of the 21st century. After all, some people are uncomfortable with their size. They feel sluggish and weighed down by that pull from the Earth. Why shouldn’t they just be able to ignore gravity and float along as easily as they please? Why should any law of nature be allowed to constrain how light and thin someone feels inside? If that sounds ridiculous to you, imagine how female athletes have felt in recent years, having to compete against males just because they’ve been told that feeling like a woman can make them so.”

Can I Have a Word with You in 2026!

3

Here we are with the first Monday Morning Blog of 2026!

There’s something special about the beginning of a New Year. Some say it seems like January is the longest month of the year, but for me, I cling to every new day of January because the rest of the year flies by so fast. January represents a new fresh start. Many people even set new goals or resolutions like going to the gym, eating healthier, walking more, losing weight, going back to school, or fill in the blank.

A common goal for many Christians is to read the Bible in a year and to select a word to focus on for the year. God’s Word and a personal word. I do both and that’s what I’d like to challenge you with as we kick off this New Year.

Words Matter

Whether written or spoken, words are how we communicate. God created us that way and breathed His Words into His chosen writers to provide us with the timeless inerrant Word of God, the Bible, to communicate with us and guide our life (2 Tim. 3:16-17). Fourteen times in the Bible, the Lord cautions us, “Whoever has ears, let them hear.”

We should also choose wisely the words we speak, hear, and read. Words can communicate good or evil. They motivate or manipulate. Depict or deceive. Convey truth or lies. Facts or opinions. Help or hurt. Encourage or intimidate. Cheer or criticize.

Here are some examples of how Satan has used words in our current culture for evil.

  • Killing a baby in the womb is “reproductive healthcare.”
  • Drugging and mutilating children’s sexual body parts is “gender-affirming care.”
  • Defining marriage as only between a woman and a man is “homophobic.”
  • Same-sex sexual relationships are “gay.”
  • Pretending to be the opposite sex is “trans.”
  • Men playing in women’s sports is “inclusive.”
  • Hiring on basis of skin color and gender is “DEI.”
  • Merit is “racist.”
  • Masculinity is “toxic.”
  • Godless evil is “woke.”
  • Incoherent deception is a “word salad.” An example of a deceptive “word salad” was used during the inauguration speech of the new Communist Muslim mayor in New York City, Zohran Mamdani—“We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” Anyone calling this out for what it really means—replacing American entrepreneurial freedom of democracy with socialistic dictatorial communism like in Venezuela—is labeled “Islamophobic.”
  • Christians crowning themselves as God’s chosen people is “Replacement Theology.”
  • The Christian church succumbing to secular culture is “Progressive Christianity.”

I’m sure you could add many more to this list, but often Christians today are afraid to speak truth to lies because they fear the condemnation from man more than from God.

God’s Word Is the Bread of Life

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1

Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. John 6:35

In discussing John 6:35, our pastor gave the example of only opening your Bible on Sunday and maybe Wednesday night prayer meeting is like only eating a big meal on Sunday and maybe a snack on Wednesday, but no food the rest of the week. Our bodies would physically starve. Likewise, spiritual starvation occurs when we only partake of the Bread of Life, the Word of God, once or twice a week.

It’s hopeful to see many churches and pastors, like our pastor, encouraging their congregations to read the Bible daily in a year, especially this year. Why do I say especially this year? Because the world is getting darker and darker as we approach the return of Jesus, and it’s vital we understand what the Bible says about it.

We’re actually fortunate to live during the birth pangs of the end times. It won’t be scary or intimidating to believers if we have a firm faith foundation and understand God’s plan clearly explained and outlined in the Bible. Something you can’t fully appreciate by just reading a random Scripture. It’s important to see how the Old Testament is the foreshadowing of the New Testament and how all the puzzle pieces fall together in context as you reach Revelation.

The Bible explains and foretells everything we’re encountering in the world today. There’s no reason to fear or worry when you know your role in history and how God wants you to live under all circumstances and in all seasons.

I’ve read the Bible in a year numerous times and I’ve enjoyed reading different translations each year. Many of you have also read the Bible annually, but others might’ve only gotten as far as Lamentations or maybe even Isaiah and then put it aside as life happened. I want to encourage you to read it all the way through this year. We’re only five days in and you can catch up. It is doable. Here are some tips that have helped me.

  1. Have a designated time and place where you read your Bible daily and leave your Bible open in that spot.
  2. Even if you get behind, don’t lose heart. Catch up on the weekends, but keep going. It will get easier.
  3. Use a reading plan. I like YouVersion and CBN, but there are others and maybe your church is suggesting one. Our church handed out a plan for the year reading from the Old Testament and New Testament each day. Others like to include a Psalm or Proverb daily. Just pick one and get started.
  4. For the past two years, I’ve listened to the Bible using the CBN yearly plan. I asked for earbuds for my birthday and listen when I’m walking, at the gym, or doing household chores.

It’s popular today to listen to Podcasts and I’m suggesting you listen to Godcast instead! In biblical times, church and temple leaders read the Scriptures from a scroll to the people. People didn’t have personal scrolls like we have personal Bibles today. The Scriptures were passed down by word of mouth and memorization.

If you’re a highlighter or note taker, listening might not be as agreeable to you, but I think you’ll find it’s definitely doable to listen to the Bible in a year. I was out for a walk on December 31, 2025 when I shouted “Hallelujah” as I listened to the last words of Revelation 22 foretelling the return of Jesus.

  • Take the Read-the-Bible-in-a-year challenge with a group or a prayer partner so you can encourage and keep each other accountable.
  • Don’t spend a lot of time figuring out what to do. Just pick up your Bible and start at Genesis 1:1 and keep reading. God will bless your efforts and time in His Word!

Here’s a portion of a testimony from Janet Marie Watson, an Idaho Facebook friend. She posted this on January 1, 2026, encouraging her friends to read the Bible in a year. Shared with permission.

“Hi everyone. I hope you’re having a good start to 2026. I had to get on social media and say please remember to read your Bible. I have seen it change my heart and it changes my thoughts. Yesterday, I read the last portion of the 365 day Bible reading program I had last year. There is a thing we call discipline but I’m not sure this is as much a discipline as it is a determination. It doesn’t take long with daily portions. I read the whole Bible again. I have such a greater breadth to what I understand about God’s purpose and His larger picture. God has offered this to us as a personal gift.

If I got a personal letter from a great leader, I’d be reading it. I am reminded of 1 John 3:1. “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!” . . .

So find a program that gives you manageable portions to read each day. This year, I’m going back to one I’ve used before. It’s got a portion from the Old Testament, the New Testament, the Psalms, and the Proverbs for each day. I hope this prevents me from reading the plagues of Revelation the last few days of December. But if not, I’ll be ok. And like I said, it has changed me. The Epistles tell me how to conduct myself. How to temper my heart. And after about 13 yrs of reading the Bible through each year, there are portions that jump into my consciousness when I am tempted to be things I should not be.

What’s Your Word for 2026?

Starting in 2018, I began praying for God to give me a word for the year. A word that would glorify Him and transform me into the woman He wanted me to be. A word to guide my personal interactions, my writing, my thinking, and my spiritual growth. Not an easy word or one I was already good at, but one that would challenge me and cause me to delve deeper into my heart and soul seeking God’s help to live out.

For example, I’ve never been a patient person so one year I chose the word “grace.” I wanted to be more grace-filled and less self-filled. A friend gave me a cross necklace with the word “grace” on it. I wore that necklace daily. Grace was such a difficult word for me that I actually kept it for two-years, but I haven’t mastered it yet. I still wear the necklace.

As I was praying about my 2026 word, I read James 1:3-4 NLT in the closing days of my 2025 devotional. “For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. 4 So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.”

That word “endurance” struck a chord in my heart. My husband Dave had three major surgeries within a year. I became his patient advocate, caregiver, and maintainer of our home. There were times I didn’t think I had the energy or stamina to keep going, but God and love help you do what you think you can’t do. My endurance was tested, but God and love kept me going. I want endurance to come easier in 2026. While I almost chose “love” as my word, I realized that love fuels endurance so love will grow as I seek to endure well.

How about you?

 Do you choose a word for the year and a Scripture to go along with it?

Are you going to read or listen to the entire Bible this year?

What worldly words are you going to stop using or stop letting influence your thinking and emotions?

I’d love to hear your answers. Just hit reply and share.

PS: January 2025, I shared that I was praying every morning with Pastor Jack Hibbs’ 5:00 AM PT Lift Scripture Prayer time. He recorded daily on Facebook Live, YouTube, and several other places so you could listen anytime and leave prayer requests while praying for others. I only missed a couple mornings all year.

Pastor Hibbs felt the Lord leading him to do this for only one year, but one of the daily prayer partners who he called “Mr. Faithful,” James Choy, is carrying on the Morning Prayer time for 2026. You can find him @ 5AMBondservant on Facebook and Instagram if you would like to join us praying every morning. You’ll be blessed for sure.

Legal Immigration Is a Wonderful Thing. Illegal Immigration Is Not!

5

In late November 2025, the Wesleyan Church wrote a Position Statement on Immigration, which reflects their attempt to twist Scripture to justify 20 million illegal, unlawful, unauthorized, undocumented, noncitizen aliens invading America.

Like the mainstream media, liberal left, and socialist Marxists, the Wesleyans only used the word “immigrant” instead of differentiating between vetted legal immigrants who are welcomed into our country when they come in the right way, versus those who break our laws to breach our borders illegally. You or I couldn’t just walk into another country and demand shelter, food, healthcare, education for our children, jobs, while abusing the country’s constitution or laws against its legal citizens.

My husband and I traveled abroad at the end of the summer, and we had to show our ID passport to get on the plane, when we got off the plane, and every leg of the trip. Our luggage had to go through customs going into a foreign country and also upon returning to our home country. While we were in other countries, we had to abide by their laws and culture.

Dr. Everett Piper, American writer, retired university administrator, and conservative commentator, author of the national best seller, Not a Day Care: The Devastating Consequences of Abandoning Truth and a columnist for The Washington Times, wrote a response challenging the Wesleyan Church’s Immigration Position Statement and I completely agree with him.

Too many churches, pastors, and Christians today are either misinterpreting Scripture or taking it out of context attempting to guilt Americans into tolerating foreigners who have broken the law by entering our country illegally. Many have criminal nefarious evil motives.

Dr. Piper’s opinion is interesting and relevant since he served as President of Oklahoma Wesleyan University from August 2002 until his retirement in May 2019. He was named President Emeritus of Oklahoma Wesleyan in 2020 and was elected County Commissioner of Osage County Oklahoma in 2022.

Here is what Dr. Everett Piper wrote in response to the Wesleyan Church Position Statement on Immigration:

“I personally think this statement from Wesleyan HQ is a not-so-thinly-disguised homage to some of our leaders’ decades old infatuation with neo-Marxism rather than simple Biblical truth. And they frankly don’t even try to hide it.

For example, the language of this official statement is laden with references to “systemic” this and that; as well as the use of the word “equitable” rather than equal. These phrases and concepts are straight out of the Frankfurt School handbook and reflect the writings of Max Horkheimer, Theodor Adorno, and Herbert Marcuse more than they do traditional Christian beliefs regarding individual responsibility and conservative morals.

Biblical believers should be very wary of this for it is all a very close cousin to 1960s liberation theology whose goal has always been much more about “social justice” than personal salvation. All such models inevitably lead to division rather than unity, blame rather than personal confession, and the worship of government more than God.

Moreover, this statement repeatedly ignores the fact that the Bible never excuses illegal immigration or expects any country/nation to tolerate it.

It consistently conflates the immigrant who honors the law with those who don’t. In fact the document seemingly draws no distinction between the two and scolds those of us who do see the difference.

And it completely ignores the elderly, the poor, the widows, the children and the women who are being victimized even now as we speak by a tsunami of illegal vagrancy now sweeping across our nation.

What about them?

What about the working class older folks in Springfield OH, LA, South Chicago, Denver Colorado or in Minneapolis or St Paul who can’t even leave their front yard, walk to the local grocery store, or take their grandkids to the community park because their entire neighborhood is now overrun by a literal army of illegals?

What about children who are being trafficked and abused by the tens of thousands?

What about the young women who live in fear of being harassed if not outright raped?

What about the older retired couple who still live in the 1,000 square foot house they bought in what was a nice neighborhood in the 1950s that is now overrun by tent encampments, drugs, violence and crime?

What about all these people – these millions of law abiding blue color American citizens – who have had to sacrifice their safety, their home equity, their neighborhoods, their schools, their streets, and their entire way of life on the altar of virtue-signaling progressive Christians who live in their upscale suburban communities, sleeping soundly at night behind their locked front doors and who drink their five dollar lattes while smugly writing papers like this scolding everyone else to do better?

The bottom line is there is nothing in the Bible that tells a nation to ignore lawlessness and criminality at the expense of its own people. Read the book of Nehemiah my goodness. The entire thing revolves around building a wall for a reason.

Legal immigration is a wonderful thing. Illegal immigration is not. And ignoring the difference is cultural suicide.”

What Does the Bible Say about Violating a Nation’s Borders and Transgressing Its Immigration Laws?

*Romans 13:1–7 makes it clear that God expects us to obey the laws of the government. The only exception is when a law forces us to disobey a command of God (Acts 5:29). Illegal immigration breaks a government’s law. There is nothing in Scripture that contradicts the idea of a sovereign nation having immigration laws. Therefore, it is rebellion against God to unlawfully enter another country. Illegal immigration is a sin.

It is not biblical to violate a law to achieve a “good.” Caring for the poor, orphans, and widows is something the Bible commands us to do (Galatians 2:10; James 1:27; 2:2–15); however, that biblical mandate does not excuse lawbreaking. Supporting, enabling, or encouraging illegal immigration is a violation of God’s Word. Those seeking to immigrate to another country should always obey the immigration laws of that country. Yes, dealing with red tape may cause delays and frustrations, but it is better than acting illegally. A frustrating law is still a law.

“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right. For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people. Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves” (1 Peter 2:13–16).

*From What Does the Bible Say About Illegal Immigration?

5 Do not cover up their guilt or blot out their sins from your sight, for they have thrown insults in the face of the builders. 6 So we rebuilt the wall till all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart. Nehemiah 4:5-6

Many falsely try to label Jesus and His earthly parents as immigrants. Contrarily, Jesus’ birth took place when His mother Mary and earthly father Joseph travelled at a very inconvenient time to legally follow the government’s law.

At that time the Roman emperor, Augustus, decreed that a census should be taken throughout the Roman Empire. 2 (This was the first census taken when Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 All returned to their own ancestral towns to register for this census. 4 And because Joseph was a descendant of King David, he had to go to Bethlehem in Judea, David’s ancient home. He traveled there from the village of Nazareth in Galilee. 5 He took with him Mary, to whom he was engaged, who was now expecting a child.

6 And while they were there, the time came for her baby to be born. Luke 2:1-6

I hope this blog clears up any confusion between legal law-abiding immigration and those who broke our laws, including the Biden Administration who willfully broke United States immigration laws to allow a travesty of 20 million illegals to cross our open borders. Horrifically, many victims of illegal immigration have paid a horrible price for this atrocity, some even with their life.  Praise God, President Trump closed our borders within weeks of coming into office, but now we must deal with locating and removing millions of illegals from our country while DHS also searches for the 300,000 unaccompanied children Biden and Harris lost!

But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea. Matt. 18:6

Why Is It a Sin Not to Vote?

2

Did the title of this blog get your attention? I hope so because the statistics of Christians who don’t vote in elections frankly is pathetic. I’m going to say what many pastors are afraid to say, it’s sinful.

God gave us the opportunity in America to choose our government leaders from the school board and local officials to the President of the United States. Yes, God gave that right to every citizen and our founding fathers underscored that based on God’s guidance scripturally.

However, according to research, only 51% of Christians vote even in Presidential elections and even less during midterms and off-season years like the 2025 elections. Does that shock you like it does me? Well, this should shock you even more . . . 93% of the LGBTQ population get out and vote!

It’s tragic to read those statistics. Christians aren’t only the largest voting bloc, we’re the laziest and most apathetic when it comes to actually voting. It’s a sin when we could make a biblical difference in our world and we abdicate that responsibility to secular voters. 

Christians wonder why they’re losing the battle of good versus evil and yet they sit out opportunities to win for righteousness. The Bible tells us that knowing the right thing to do and choosing not to do it is a sin.

If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them. James 4:17 NIV
Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it. James 4:17 NLT

Sin is something few pastors are willing to address, not to mention when it applies to voting and politics, which I wrote about in my blog last week. I encourage you to read it if you haven’t yet. What Are You Willing to Sacrifice for Your Beliefs?

The results of research reveal that large numbers of Christian churches have distanced themselves from elections, refusing to even encourage congregants to vote and they avoid teachings related to many of the key social issues on which an election may hinge. I call that abandoning the flock to the wolves of the world when so many Scriptures guide us in how to vote.

Think of the horrible liberal woke agenda that could’ve been avoided affecting our children. Gender confusion. Sexual mutilation. School sexual and anti-American indoctrination. Trans/drag cults. Men in women’s sports. High crime rates. Child trafficking. Murdering babies in the womb and so many more atrocities that could’ve been prevented if Christians had voted for moral government officials and ballot issues.

Here’s an interesting comment from an article in Outreach Magazine on a Study: A Surprising Number of Christians Say They Aren’t Voting: “I see two huge take-aways from this blockbuster report,” said Len Munsil, president of Arizona Christian University. “First, that Christians could be the deciding factor in a bunch of federal and state races and are choosing not to be. And second, that they are longing for their local church to instruct them on how to think biblically about policy and politics. They don’t want to be told how to vote, but they do want to know why they should vote, and how to view political issues from a biblical framework.

The research pinpointed several reasons why Christians are stepping away from the voting booth:

  • 68% lack interest in politics and elections
  • 57% dislike all major candidates
  • 55% feel none of the candidates reflect their most important views
  • 52% believe their vote will not make a difference
  • 48% think the election results will be manipulated

Interestingly, the data shows that if their church taught that voting is a biblical responsibility, one out of six likely non-voters would reconsider.

A Biblical Citizenship Guide to Voting!

It’s true you’ll always be voting for the lesser of two evils because Jesus isn’t on the ballot so that excuse is inexcusable. Christians have an obligation to be stewards of our American rights and voting is one of those important rights.

I want to share with you part of a devotional from The Idaho Family Policy Center.

“In a Boston Gazette newspaper essay, founding father Samuel Adams reminded Americans of their sacred duty when voting: ‘Let each citizen remember at the moment he is offering his vote that he is executing one of the most solemn trusts in human society for which he is accountable to God and his country.’

Thankfully, the Bible speaks of all of life–and God does not leave us without instruction on how we ought to approach the ballot booth. Instead of relying upon our own subjective preferences as we cast our votes, Christians should choose civil leaders based on the qualifications God sets forth in his Word:

Moreover you shall select from all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness. (Ex. 18:21)

Notice the four characteristics in Exodus 18:21 that believers are directed to consider before supporting a candidate:

  • First, government officials should be able men who are capable of fulfilling the responsibilities of the office they are seeking;
  • Second, government officials should fear God in both their public and private affairs;
  • Third, government officials should be men of truth who walk in integrity, and
  • Fourth government officials should display a commitment to hating covetousness, guarding themselves against corruption as they promote biblical justice and the common good.”

(Of course, these same biblical principles apply to women running for office.)

The Idaho Family Policy Center has created a scripturally based Biblical Citizenship Guide to Voting applicable to any Christian in any state. I encourage you to go to the link and read it. Here’s the introduction.

“The most prominent evangelist of the Second Great Awakening, Rev. Charles Finney (1792 – 1875), reminded Christians of their responsibility to “take the right ground in regard to politics” by voting the Bible: God cannot sustain this free and blessed country, which we love and pray for, unless the church will take right ground.

Politics are a part of religion in such a country as this, and Christians must do their duty to the country as a part of their duty to God. It seems sometimes as if the foundations of the nation were becoming rotten, and Christians seem to act as if they thought God did not see what they do in politics. But I tell you, he does see it, and he will bless or curse this nation according to the course they take.

The Bible describes Christians as “salt” and “light” who preserve those things that are good while shining the light of God’s truth into every sphere of life. This includes the political realm, where Christians are called to exert a righteous influence on government. As citizens of our constitutional republic, we have the power to elect leaders who will pursue policies that have an impact on the lives of those in our families and our neighbors. Let’s make sure we do our homework and vote for candidates that will govern according to God’s principles!”

The headings in the guide are:

Voting: A Biblical Responsibility:

  • Christian Voting Glorifies God
  • Voting in the Bible

How Should I Vote?

  • 4 Biblical Qualifications for Public Officials

Again, this is a Biblical Citizenship Guide to Voting comprised by the Idaho Family Policy Center, but not just written for Idaho Christians; it’s written to every American Christian citizen.

November 4, 2025 Election

Crucial elections are taking place this election year. The governorships in New Jersey and Virginia could change those states to solid conservative red or liberal woke blue. Virginia Christians could make a huge difference in the values in their state by voting for Christian Winsome Earle-Sears who will maintain the executive orders of the current governor to protect unborn babies and prevent sexual indoctrination and surgical mutilation of children while honoring parents’ rights to know what their children are being taught in school. Her Democrat opponent has promised to undo all the good done by Governor Glenn Youngkin. You don’t have to do much research there to know how to vote biblical values.

Same in New Jersey where the Democrat candidate, who has many personal ethics issues she’s refused to address, vows to inflict the entire liberal woke green new deal scam on the state and LGBTQ curriculum in schools.

In New York City, an Islamist Communist could become the mayor of the financial center of America and the world. There is a Republican conservative running, but all the polls show the Communist winning! How did the voters of this great city let this happen at Ground Zero? Did they forget what happened on 911 or has the next generation not been told?!

Instead of another physical devastating attack on this great city, the enemy is working from within politically. A new generation that didn’t experience 911 is falling for the inevitable promise of free stuff that is never free. If you say anything against this nominee, they accuse you of Islamophobia. No, we’re free American Christian citizens and we want to stay that way. We don’t want to be governed by Communist Islamists who hate America even though they benefit greatly from living here.

Or in Minneapolis, a Somalian who campaigns in his native language, not English, is running for mayor.  

Prop 50 is on the ballot in California and if it passes, Governor Newsom will redistrict to eliminate Republican representation in that state! It’s a strong “NO” on 50 if conservatives want to have any voice in California ever again.

When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan. Pr. 29:2 NLT

I don’t live in any of those states, but I listen to what’s going on in the public square. Those elections, and the thousands in other states, could greatly affect the midterms and whether President Trump will be able to make the needed changes we voted for not only in the United States but also in global relations.

While many Christians fail to vote, there seems to be a general malaise about taking responsibility as citizens. There are only two items on the ballot in my hometown of Garden Valley, Idaho and both are tax levies. Not too exciting for an off-year election you might think but one is for the school district and one for the volunteer fire department and EMTs. There’s been much back and forth on social media about the pros and cons of each one, but I was interested to see someone post the following statistic.

“In 2022, for the last school levy, only 292 votes were casts. 234 were from Garden Valley, the rest were from Lowman. Garden Valley had 1812 registered voters, but only 12.9% voted.” For this year: “The school levy requires a simple majority to pass (50% +1 vote). The fire department levy will require a super majority to pass (66.7%). These are two very important issues that should not be left to a few to decide.”

Exactly what I’ve been saying in this blog. Why would we as Christians want to let a few decide our fate when Christians could be the most impactful voting bloc in America . . . when we vote!!!

“One of the most effective ways for Christians to exert a godly influence in their communities is through exercising their biblical responsibility to vote. Christians are uniquely equipped to judge candidates and policy proposals according to the universally true and unchanging principles given to us by God in His Word.” Biblical Citizenship Guide to Voting

Do your research, pray for God’s wisdom and guidance, and go vote on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, and every voting opportunity you have in your lifetime. It’s a biblical mandate and right as American citizens.
