In the first five chapters of Isaiah, we see how Israel slipped away from its moorings to God and His covenant, falling into deeper and deeper corruption. Then they went beyond corruption to an ultimate depravity. They started calling good evil and evil good, honoring the dishonorable and...

“These are the times that try men’s souls.” ~Thomas Paine It will help us to navigate through these times if we understand that these times are meant to try us. The greatest prophets, the greatest souls, and the greatest leaders arise during the darkest times. If we are alive for these times then...

Last week, we discussed scenarios of how the needed corrections to our government could come from within the government, starting with the three branches of the federal government. This week, we will look at what could be done if that does not happen. The next best alternative would be for state...

Jesus had to be the most un-politically correct person to ever walk the earth, and the more we become like Him, the more we will be too. He did not fear men. He was not running for office or seeking to win a popularity contest. He came simply to tell us the truth. Politics is built on human...

The church as we perceive it in the West is about to die. This is not something to rejoice over. Even though it may be far from the church that Jesus will build, it has accomplished much and will die in honor. It is a parallel of the life of Rachel, Jacob’s wife that died when Benjamin was born...

Last week we covered how the reversing of what our Constitution said about the relationship between church and state led to increased stifling of our religious liberty. This led to the erosion of morality and integrity, as well as our other liberties and the Constitution’s authority itself. Using...

It is basic military doctrine that you cannot defeat an enemy you do not see. Seeing the enemy implies understanding him. Just as the most effective military leaders are those who learn the ways of their adversaries so they can counter them, we are commanded not to be ignorant of the enemy’s...

As we began to cover last week, one of the biggest evil strongholds now growing in the U.S. is causing people to be offended by just about anything. The penalty for causing someone to be offended is getting increasingly severe and has even been proposed to be a criminal offense. This has led to...
