Lots of attention has been placed on the presidential election understandably. But another election could have an outsized impact on our nation’s course. With Senator Mitch McConnell stepping down, Senate Republicans will choose a new leader for the fist time in 18 years.
This decision with determine how the Senate will conduct business going forward.
What will the Senate Republicans choose? Will they choose a leader who embraces an America First agenda, who upholds constitutional fidelity, and employs a biblical worldview? Or, will they choose a regressive leader?
“Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry.” Colossians 3:5 (KJV).

The Barna Group has released a report that found pornography use is prevalent among Christians and non-Christians. In fact, the study showed that 75% of Christian men and 40% of Christian women who participated in the study reported consuming pornography. This included pastors who admitted pornography consumption as well.
Furthermore, a large share of respondents indicated that they were comfortable with the habit.
Abortion is connected to sexual immorality. Sexual immorality is connected to pornography.

Donald John Trump, the 45th President of the United States of America will also be our 47th President. Additionally, Republicans have secured majorities in the U.S. Senate and it seems so in the House of Representatives too.
God has spared us from “She who shall also never be President.” Thank you LORD for your mercy.
We mustn’t, however, misinterpret His mercy. We must take advantage of the reprieve He’s granted us to fulfill His commission. Our constitutional republican form of government is made only for a moral people. It is entirely inadequate for the governance of any other.

Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, Director of the Los Angeles Children’s Hospital Gender Clinic—the leading clinic in the country, applied for and was awarded a $9.7 million grant by the National Institutes of Health in 2015 to study the impact of puberty blockers on dysphoric American children.
The study showed that puberty blockers did not help the children at all.
Instead of “following the science,” Dr. Olson-Kennedy refused to publish the results of her study because science got in the way of her pre-determined preference.
Where we would be in the national discourse if this doctor simply published the science?
“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.” Matthew 5:13 (NASB95).

Today is election day. The 47th President, the U.S. Senate, the House of Representatives, your state legislature, governorships, mayoral races, city councils, school boards, county governments, state constitutional amendments are all on the ballot around the country.
We are at a critical juncture in our nation’s history. My question is what will you do tomorrow? What course of action will you pursue? Will you be salt and light? Or will you simply be lightly salted?
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God – what is good and acceptable and perfect” Romans 12:2 (ESV).

Paul’s epistle to the Romans was written to believers. This verse highlights the fact that it’s possible for Christians to be conformed to the world’s ways.
The word “conformed” there means to be squeezed into the mold of another. Rather than to be squeezed into the world’s mold, the Lord requires us to be transformed by having our minds renewed by God’s Word.
Everything about us must be held up to the light of Scripture. And whenever there’s any discrepancy, we must be transformed.

This Scripture underscores the harrowing reality that permeates the life of many who profess to be Christians. The blessing of being a Christ follower comes not only from hearing God’s Word, but obeying it.
James continues, “for if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law of liberty and perseveres, being not a hearer who forgets, but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing."

Tennessee passed a law to protect its minor citizens from genital mutilation and chemical castration under the guise of trans-medical care. The Federal District and Appellate Courts both upheld the law. The Harris-Biden administration intervened in the case, to prevent Tennessee and other states from protecting their minor children from trans-insanity.
Yet, what the Huffington Post found objectionable, is that we had the audacity to cite scripture in our brief to support TN’s efforts to protect children.
Permanently mutilating the bodies and likely reproductive capacity of minors isn’t the problem for the HuffPo… Scripture now that is a problem.

Between 2019 and 2023, Islamists have slaughtered 16,769 Christians in Nigeria according to the Observatory for Religious Freedom in Africa. 4,192 Christians have been murdered there per year, one Christian killed every two hours.
The violence has reached the point that many traumatized Christian children sleep in the trees to avoid being butchered in the night, when the Fulani terrorists are prone to attack.
In 2014, there were 1.1 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Nigeria. As of 2023, there were 3.4 million.
Muslim Fulani herdsmen, Islamic State West Africa Province, and other terrorists are committing genocide in Nigeria and its largely ignored in the West.

Regardless of the Harris-Biden administration’s opinion on the matter, Israel continues its efforts to decimate Iran’s proxy front. Israel eliminated Hezbollah’s terrorist chief, Hassan Nasrallah, while he was in Tehran, Iran.
Israel also continues decimate Hamas, it’s organizational and leadership structure, and most recently, the architect of the October 7th massacre—Yahya Sinwar.
For years international pressure forced Israel to embracing a stasis where rabid terrorists, committed to their annihilation, surrounded them. October 7th seems to have forever altered that calculus. Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu seems resolved to destroy Hamas, Hezbollah, and all of Iran’s terrorist proxies around them once and for all.

In a rare unscripted moment, Kamala Harris responded to two college students who shouted “Jesus is LORD” during her Wisconsin rally by saying, “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally.”
Her immediate, instinctive impulse wasn’t to use the moment as an opportunity to display a graciousness or a willingness to engage people, even those who may disagree with her. The impulse response was to say, you, your kind, and your LORD aren’t welcome here.
Very telling. Jesus said, the mouth speaks from the overflow of what fills one’s heart. Ms. Harris’ words here seem consistent with her public record of actions.

When the FBI originally released the “final” crime data for 2022 in September 2023, it reported that the nation’s violent crime rate fell by 2.1%. This quickly became, and remains, a Democrat Party talking point.
But the FBI has quietly revised those numbers, releasing new data that shows violent crime increased in 2022 by 4.5%. The new data includes thousands more murders, rapes, robberies, and aggravated assaults.
The change was discovered through a cryptic reference on the FBI website that states: “The 2022 violent crime rate has been updated for inclusion, 2023.”
It looks like President Trump was right again.

University of Kansas Professor Phil Lowcock was placed on leave after video surfaced of him saying to his class that men who won’t vote for a female president should be shot.
There are going to be some males in our society that will refuse to vote for a potential female president because they don’t think females are smart enough to be president. We could line all those guys up and shoot them… Did I say that? Scratch that from the recording. I don’t want the deans hearing that.
Lowcock has now left the university.

The FBI has arrested Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, a 27 year-old Afghan national who entered the U.S. on September 9, 2021 on a Special Immigrant Visa days after the Harris-Biden disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. When arrested, Tawhedi was on “Immigrant Parole Status.”
He was charged with conspiring, along with a minor, to conduct a large scale election day terrorist attack on behalf of ISIS.
The DOJ has recovered video from Tawhedi’s smart devices in which he read text to two children describing the rewards a martyr receives in the afterlife.

After 12 long years, Jack Phillips has finally defeated the LBGTQ+ legal harassment he’s endured.
Jack Phillips, Christian owner of the Masterpiece Cakeshop in Colorado, was sued in 2012 after declining the invitation to design a customized cake celebrating a homosexual union because he sought to operate his business consistently with his Christian conviction.
He was sued again, after being vindicated by the Supreme Court in the initial case, for declining to make custom cake for a transgender celebration.
The Colorado Supreme Court has dismissed the second lawsuit. Jack stood firm and has finally prevailed.

Barack Obama stopped at the Harris campaign offices in Pittsburgh’s East Liberty neighborhood. While doing do, he was recorded lambasting “black men” for not supporting Kamala Harris, describing it as a “betrayal" and attributing it to misogyny.
He said,
Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives or other reasons for that…
Perhaps, Mr. Obama, some of us black men are smart enough to know Kamala’s policies are disastrous? Could that be it… maybe?

During the upper room discourse Jesus explained to His disciples that keeping His commandments flows from the heart of the one who loves Him. Then he added,
These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full. John 15:11.
Fullness of joy is contained within in our obedience to Christ. Joy, unlike happiness, is an internal disposition regardless of what may be swirling around us externally. Maximum joy is the by-product of obedience to Christ.

Arizona State University Professor Owen Anderson has taught “Introduction to Christianity” and the school on and off for 24 years.
Now, his colleagues have objected to his instruction because… get this… they don’t believe the class should be taught from a Christian perspective.
Objections to Professor Anderson’s course include screeds like,
The syllabus reflects a Christian way of teaching Christianity. The course doesn’t adequately provide the kinds of critical, reflective, disciplinary skills students need to have in order to study religious traditions.
What a scandal! Christianity, taught by a Christian… this mustn’t be!
Some people truly despise Jesus.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has called for more “media literacy” in what she describes as a need to “rein in” the media. She said this was necessary to prevent them from spreading “disinformation and misinformation.”
Interesting, the term “disinformation” (dezinformatsiya) was used by Josef Stalin when he used his goons to execute his prerogatives in communist Russia.
Who decides what is disinformation AOC? You? The government? If the government decides what is true and what is false, perhaps the government will use the term “disinformation” to crush debate, crush dissent, and control the masses… just like Stalin.

John Kerry participated in a World Economic Forum panel on Green Energy Investing and Sustainable Development. While doing so, he took the opportunity to assail our 1st Amendment. He argued that our pesky 1st Amendment allows the dissemination of what he called “disinformation.”
He specifically said,
…our First Amendment stands as a major block to be able to just, you know, hammer it [disinformation] out of existence.
Nothing like an almost U.S. President, former U.S. Senator, and Harris-Biden administration climate envoy trash our constitution abroad. Spoken like a true totalitarian.
