Jesus is often called Immanuel.  The name means, “The mighty God with us.”  Jesus was born into this world in order to reveal the Father, The Almighty God, to mankind.  We’d forgotten what God was really like.  Our sin we inherited from our fathers had blocked out of our minds the truth of Who God was.  Jesus lived, as a man—filled with God, the Holy Spirit—thirty-three years in this world and constantly showed us the Father.  And one of the things about Him that amazed His followers was the way He prayed and God answered Him.  The secret to Jesus’ prayers being answered so quickly and so powerfully was that He always asked according to the Father’s will.  And He taught his disciples this was the key to seeing God move in this world.  This is why the Apostle John, who learned this principle from Jesus, would write,

“…this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask any thing according to His will, he hears us:  And if we know that He hears us…we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him.” Continue reading →

Why did the Pilgrims come to America with the hope of Jesus Christ ruling—through His followers—their educational, economic, and governmental systems?  They came with that hope because they knew that RESURRECTED CHRIST personally!  This had come through “…the diligence of some Godly preachers…” by whose preaching “…their ignorance and sins [had been] discovered unto them…”  They had repented of their “ignorance and sins” and had received Christ as their Lord and Savior.  Thus, the power of the Resurrected Christ flowed in them.

But, as they studied the Scripture, they found that this Resurrection life of Christ wanted to flow not only in their personal lives, but through their lives out into their local communities.  They didn’t buy satan’s lie that Christianity must stay in the home and the church.  Matthew Henry, the great Puritan preacher, revealed their thinking when he Continue reading →

It was 1775.  On April 19th the British army, which had been our army up until that time, attacked a group of farmers standing on Lexington Green to defend their homes.  That group of some seventy-five farmers were members of the local church at Lexington.  Their Pastor, Jonas Clark, had been preparing them for this moment by his preaching over the last twenty years.  He had taught them the Biblical principles that support self-defense from an aggressive enemy.  Captain Jonas Parker, head Deacon and leader of the group on the Green, called out to his men, “Steady men, steady; don’t fire unless fired upon.  But if they want a war, let it begin here.”  The British did fire, and eight Americans died.  The rest of the Americans then returned the fire, and then they scattered to the woods to make their way to Concord, where they would join with a much larger force of Americans.  At Concord they would repulse the British attack and win the day.  The impossible had occurred:  An army of farmers had defeated the British army of professional soldiers, the greatest army on earth in that day.  Why?  Colonial Pastors would give the credit to their God, Jesus Christ.  As Jedediah Morse would reveal, the inspiration behind the fighting of our army of farmers was the Ministers of the Colonies.  Morse stated Continue reading →

There were shouts…then shots…then screams…then President Trump grabbed his ear and quickly moved down to the stage floor and the protection of the speaker’s stand. Quickly other shots were fired and the assassin’s attempt at murdering President Trump was done—for the shooter was done, in this world.

He was a college student where he heard often, maybe daily, that Donald Trump is the end of democracy in America. He had, no doubt, heard the suggestions from loose-tongued newscasters, talk show hosts, college professors, and politicians. Even Mr. Biden said something like, “There needs to be a bullseye on him”, referring to President Trump.  (David Barton, Wallbuilders.show, 7/16/24)

An example of this is reported in an interview with The Washington Stand  by a Miss Riley Lang, a 21 year old, recently graduated from a major university. She stated, “I am a first-hand witness of students like Thomas Matthew Crooks.”  She noted that while the media, “has not put out information about the shooter’s motivation,”  it seems probable this attack was “the result of a systemic problem…In my university classes, Trump is called a racist, [a woman-hater], an evil person almost daily. And as a young person in this environment, if you support Trump in any capacity, you identify as all these characteristics as well.” Notably, she said, “The shooter was only 20 years old, and for the past seven years has heard Trump being compared to the likes of Hitler.” For Miss Lang, this is likely “the result of a child spending his teen years in [a] divisive political environment, with Marxist professors and teachers and the media painting Trump as a villain.  He [the shooter] is the result of being made into an activist.” Continue reading →
