  • “The Body They May Kill” Reflections on the Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk

    New American Prophet ^ | Sept 18, 2025 | Dr. Jerry Newcombe
    Christianity has never been politically correct. It never will be. Therefore, there have been numerous attempts to snuff it out, beginning with its very Founder. As the saying goes, if you don’t like the message, shoot the messenger. But beginning with Him, there’s always a resurrection that its opponents had not counted on. The killing of Charlie Kirk last week was a Christian martyrdom. And that assassination could well see a positive turning point in the life of America. Martyrdom has been an historic fact in the 2000 years of the Christian faith. One of my favorite stories involving it...

    Liberals have responded to Charlie Kirk’s murder by gloating, by telling lies about him, by gushing over his accused assassin, and by pretending the killer is a fellow conservative. Healthy people are reacting differently. Stick with it. Worth the 2 minutes: (video on link please watch till end) Charlie Kirk has only just begun to make this country a better place. His murder will blow up in leftists’ smug faces like nothing ever has before.

    New American Prophet ^ | Sept 17, 2025 | PNW Staff
    The shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah University has done more than rattle a nation-it has jolted thousands awake. Suddenly, questions of eternity, purpose, and truth are not just whispered-they’re shouted. And this Sunday, America saw something few expected: revival. Across the country, churches overflowed. Sanctuaries were bursting, parking lots jammed, pastors left astonished as people poured in. While no one can yet count how many new faces walked through those doors, social media painted a vivid picture: it was thousands. And they weren’t there out of curiosity alone. They came for something deeper. They came to honor Charlie...

    Give us ears to hear that still, small voice, And give us lips, forever willing to rejoice. And may our eyes be lit with wisdom, May we know the path that's true, And we'll march with hearts courageous after You. Chorus We're marching on... with hearts courageous, We'll follow where you want us to. And should you lead us where the battle rages, Let us march with hearts courageous, after You. V2 And when sorrow dims the light along our way, Help us to see each time of darkness through eyes of faith, A time for hope, a time for...
  • Mysterious ancient papyrus 'confirms' Bible story of the 10 plagues

    The Daily Mail ^ | 15 Sep 2025 | STACY LIBERATORE, US SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY EDITOR
    An ancient Egyptian manuscript may prove the biblical 10 plagues described in the Book of Exodus. Known as the Ipuwer Papyrus, the document takes the form of a poetic lament attributed to a scribe named Ipuwer. It recounts widespread catastrophes and societal upheaval in ancient Egypt, describing famine, mass death and environmental disasters.... The text also echoes the biblical plagues' attacks on Egypt's gods, with the river of blood, frogs, and darkness recalling Hapi, Heqet, and Ra. It references slavery and wealth, noting precious metals and stones fastened on female slaves, reflecting the Israelites' bondage ....

    Forrest Frank is a Christian artist who has found success in the popular music world, especially with his hit song "Lemonade." This week, after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Frank posted a video tribute to the late Christian and conservative icon and took a big hit for it. Here was his reply: VIDEO AT LINK............... 30,000 unfollowed me because I posted about Charlie Kirk and I said that Jesus Christ is Lord. Good. I don't want you to follow me. I don't want you to track my music. I don't want you to come to my shows. I don't want...

    U.S. — Reports from across the country reveal millions of Christian extremists gathered in groups this morning to pray for the people who want to kill them. Though they shed tears of grief for the dead, the extremists collectively reaffirmed their belief in the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. "Yes, we are grieved and sorrowful, and for all those hurting deeply, we pray to the Lord," said local man Greg Thompson. "And for those who have hurt us and celebrate our grief, we also pray to the Lord. We have seen the most heinous...

    John Adams, in his retirement, was disheartened. What had his life in politics counted for? he wondered. The renewal in 1805 of a 30-year friendship with Doctor Benjamin Rush reinvigorated him. ... In one conversation about the “perfectibility of man” and religion’s role in making “men and nations happy,” both Rush and Adams lamented the moral decay they witnessed in the world around them. “By renouncing the Bible,” Rush interjected, “philosophers swing from their moorings upon all moral Subjects. . . . It is the only correct map of the human heart that ever has been published. It contains a...

    The Babylon Bee ^ | Sept 11, 2025 | Babylon Bee
    HEAVEN — Charlie Kirk, faithful follower and witness of Jesus Christ, has been welcomed home to enter into the joy of his Lord. Heavenly sources confirmed that, after 31 years of graciously allowing everyone on Earth to benefit from his life, God deemed the world unworthy of Charlie Kirk and brought him into eternal glory where he belonged. A gifted and articulate apologist for Christianity and American values, Kirk was on record as stating that, despite building a massive following and influencing global events, "It's all about Jesus." Reports from Satan's kingdom, conversely, indicated that there was joy and celebration...

    Having just declared that Jesus Christ was his Lord and Savior, a shooter’s bullet struck Charlie Kirk in the neck, and he toppled over at his speaking engagement at Utah Valley University today. He was thereafter pronounced dead at the hospital where he had been fighting for his life. Co-founder of Turning Point USA, Kirk was conducting one of the stops on his ‘America Comeback Tours.’ There have been very few young ministers of the gospel with more of a flare for communicating with young people. Kirk would invite all those with questions to the front of the line. He...

    “And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.” (Rev 9:2-3) It had to happen. Madani’s brand of socialism has sprung forth with even more absurdity and potential destructive power. David Strom writing for Hot Air says he isn’t trying to hold it back. In an...

    Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence made history on Tuesday when he came off the bench in Belgrade to become the first Muslim to earn a senior cap for England. Spence, 25, replaced Chelsea's Reece James in the 69th minute of England's 5-0 World Cup qualifying victory. "I was surprised because I didn't know I was the first, so it's a blessing," London-born Spence said. "It's good to make history and hopefully inspire young kids around the world that they can make it as well. They can do what I am doing."

    jackasstheology ^ | 7/11/19 | Ryan MacDonald
    In conservative Christians circles, a clear shot across the bow is calling someone LIBERAL. It’s a warning, like a mother giving her rambunctious child the stink eye. Watch out, or real consequences will follow! We hear it all the time in Facebook comments on our Jackass Theology posts; as a preacher I sense it bubbling behind peoples’ questions to sermon content. It seems that to the Evangelical, the greatest fear is fear of being duped by, slipping into, or having compassion for THE LIBERAL AGENDA. Liberals just make crap up When someone is deemed liberal, their opinion no longer matters...

    Dublin City Council is to give its decision on planning permission for a seven-story development featuring a mosque and apartments at Blackpitts, Dublin 8. The project, entitled Al-Bari Mosque and Apartments, is being tendered by Barrett Mahony Civil & Structural Consulting Engineers. The proposed development is on the site of a former warehouse owned by Independent Clothing Holdings and will involve the demolition of the existing two-story structure. The company is owned by Azhar Bari who is from Pakistan, and who was advised on the project by the Clonskeagh Islamic Center, which is currently closed after a series of controversies...

    Well, I guess it’s official: I’m now “blue in the face.” The kind of blue that frustrated people get when they’ve said something so many times, they say they’ve done it ‘til they’re “blue in the face.” Recently, I received an email from someone who reads my commentaries on one of the many online platforms that republishes my messages from Wisconsin Christian News and our radio broadcasts. This is someone who contacts me frequently, always starting out telling me how they enjoyed my message and agreed with most of it, but then spends another fifteen minutes telling me how I...

    After they have displaced us and our culture, our language will also disappear. In Southeast Michigan, this is happening already: Dearborn Heights Police Department is believed to be the first in the country to have a patch with a language other than English. Just as the replacement religion is Islam, the replacement language is Arabic. Unlike neighboring Dearborn, Dearborn Heights is not yet majority Middle Eastern/North African. But it won’t take long. (video on link) I hope the woman wearing the cross necklace has made her escape plans.
