Matthew 18:2-4 (NIV) 2He called a little child and had him stand among them. 3And he said: “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.  The disciples had asked about who was greatest in the kingdom of heaven. They probably expected to hear that Moses or Elijah or some other great Old Testament figure was. It must have been shocking when Jesus took a child and stood him in their midst and set him up as the model. I’m sure the child was speechless along with the disciples. Jesus said that they had to become like little children to even enter the kingdom. What did we lose in growing up? Jesus tells […]

Lord Acton famously said that power corrupts, and some Democrats have been in power for long enough in Washington that, if they weren’t already corrupt when they were elected, they are beginning to show that they are now. Numerous calls forinvestigation into Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s finances have been made in recent years. Former Obama Labor Secretary Hilda Solis has been accused of Hatch Act violations. A large number of Democratic donors have come under investigation as well, both for illegal campaign contributions and other alleged criminal acts. Now House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi can add her name to the list of Washington Democrats under suspicion of breaching the public trust. A new report from the Washington Free Beacon indicates that Pelosi is thought to have enriched herself and her husband, Paul, through her efforts to “steer taxpayer funds” to a San Francisco-area light

It’s difficult and unpopular to be the one who warns. But there is an urgency for believers to sound the alarm and speak truth in a culture deceived by evil. That’s how evil becomes lovely to the eye. We are presented with only a very small and distorted portion of the reality. We are so quickly and thoroughly enamored by the carefully controlled presentation that we fail to see the big picture – the actual truth.- Anne Reed About 15 years ago, I awoke suddenly after having an extremely vivid and detailed dream. I won’t share the bulk of it but will focus on describing the cliffhanger ending. After I had observed a ferociously aggressive attack on a loved one, I entered a lush flower garden. I looked down and saw something that looked beautiful, black, soft, and shiny amid

Matthew 17:18-20 (NIV) 18Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed from that moment. 19Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” 20He replied, “Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”   Faith is like being pregnant. There is something in your womb or there isn’t. It is not about how mature it is, but how certain it is. When the disciples were asked to heal this boy, something in them said, “We can’t.” They must have said and done all the right things, but it is not about a

Yes, the government can use your phone, your computer and even potentially your television to spy on what you are doing inside your own home. On Tuesday, Wikileaks released thousands of documents that prove what virtually every “conspiracy theorist” in America has been saying for years about government spying. And I don’t even like to use the term “conspiracy theorist” much, because the truth is that most “conspiracy theorists” are simply citizen journalists that are attempting to expose things that the mainstream media doesn’t want to talk about. And one of the things that the mainstream media has always been hesitant to address is the unconstitutional surveillance that U.S. intelligence agencies systematically conduct on their own citizens. But now the mainstream media is being forced to talk about government surveillance because Wikileaks has just exposed it for all the world

When teaching our children about the various counterfeit lifestyles promoted by culture, we must be careful not to send the wrong message about Christ’s love for all…especially the wayward. It’s easy to forget that young children can easily misread our intensity.- Rob Jackson As a mental health professional, I’m more concerned about transgenderism than I am homosexuality. In a separate post, I’ve written about the increased rates of physical and mental health concerns experienced by transgender individuals. Based on these and other trends, including the recent alarm sounded by the American College of Pediatricians, I predict that transgenderism will eventually prove more prevalent and damaging than other variants of LGBTQ sexuality. As a Christian, all sexual sins concern me, including those committed by heterosexuals, but transgenderism is especially alarming from a spiritual perspective, too. It not only goes against nature

Matthew 17:2, 4-5 (NIV) 2There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 4Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters-one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 5While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”   Scholars struggle with the location of this mountain. They believed it was Mount Tabor until an archeological discovery showed that people lived on Tabor at that time. Remember, they were in Caesarea Philippi immediately preceding this. Many now believe it was Mount Hermon. The prophets, Moses and Elijah, talked with

The left is doing what it does best. Throw mud, politicize everything and build obstacles against what they fear the most: letting the American people get free of the whims of politicians. STAR PARKER Good citizens across the nation surely are wondering why, when critical business regarding America’s future needs tending to, the game preoccupying Washington, DC, these days is “Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire.” If there is some question about the propriety of conversations that Attorney General Jeff Sessions had with the Russian ambassador, when he was a U.S. senator, let those responsible for investigating this — the intelligence committees in the House and Senate — do their job. As Senator Marco Rubio, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee stated, “That is our job, to gather facts.” I trust Rubio when he says, “I’m not interested in being

A pro-family leader says there is plenty of evidence that the Trump campaign was monitored by the Obama administration last year, as the media reported on former President Barack Obama wiretapping Trump before the president tweeted his accusation about spying. On Tuesday, Gary Bauer of the Campaign for Working Families (CWF) gave the names and quotes from several news sources that reported on Obama’s wiretapping of Trump and his associates. This came after his original report on the matter that he posted a few days prior. The conservative leader noted on Tuesday in his “End of Day” report that Trump is not pulling his allegations out of thin air. “It’s been three days since President Trump made assertions of surveillance by the Obama Administration,” Bauer pointed out. “Of course, the media aggressively defended Obama and insisted that Trump had no
