Karl Marx declared: “The more of himself man attributes to God, the less he has left in himself.” And one might expect such a musing from a zealous anti-Christ: someone who rejects the revelation of God in the Son, the Creator who was sent by the Father to rescue His chosen ones.

Nor, however, let it affect any one, because it often has happened, and may […]

Yes, He defeated the darkness; Yes, He delivered you (a Christian).No, he did not move every mountain;Nor did He part every sea.Get your doctrine straight as you walk;Don’t deceive others with false talk.Sound doctrine you must embraceAnd obey Him in that glorious raceTo the place that for us is reservedBy the One with strength and […]

We get accustomed to sin! First we tolerate and then embraceWhat is patently condemned by God In His Word and by our consciences. The slaughter of children in the womb, Renamed with that reasonable “planning,” Is a tragedy of holocaustal proportion. One easily shifts his mind to slavery, That gross sin built upon manstealing:The crime […]

Your church has neglected to discipline one of its most notorious members. POTUS Biden is not only a disgusting pro-abort heretic; He is also a member of the Roman Catholic “Church.” (I do mean “church” – in quotation marks – as the retention of such a high profile sinner is not befitting of a – […]

Football isn’t bad, Soccer may be better; Both nothing but a warm-up For the blessed wrestling season. Mano-a-mano is the game; Can’t put on another the blame.

We sugar-coated slavery; called it “property rights”And we sugar-coat abortion; call it “women’s rights.”Well, there are rights and there are wrongs,And you don’t go by what’s popular with the throngs.You stand for what is genuine and true,Lest the Master come down and spank you!So tell it like it is and stand for justice,And so bring […]
