“This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: ‘He Himself took our infirmities and carried away our diseases’” (Matthew 8:17). Jesus Christ died for the sins of all who trust Him, yet believers still sin. By His resurrection He conquered death, yet Christians still die. He overcame suffering and illness, yet believers still have pain and disease. Jesus’ main purpose in the atonement was to conquer sin and death, not just to conquer physical suffering. That latter fulfillment is still in the future (cf. Rom. 8:22–25; 13:11). It is hard to argue that Jesus’ healing ministry and...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters said Monday that the officers in a viral video from a February traffic stop that made the rounds on social media this weekend have been cleared of criminal wrongdoing by the State Attorney’s Office. However, Waters said that the officers’ actions during the Feb. 19 traffic stop where William McNeil Jr. was arrested are still under an internal review by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office. Body cam video shows McNeil closing his car door after interacting with Officer D. Bowers, the responding officer. In the video, Bowers can be heard telling McNeil to step...

“I am your host,” The Tonight Show’s Jimmy Fallon kicked off, telling his Monday broadcast crowd. “Well, at least for tonight,” the comedian added, obviously referencing the recent cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Fallon quickly told the crowd he didn’t like it.

School choice and the plague of the public school indoctrination mills .. Media bias and school choice .. The leftist indoctrination of American school children ... is at the root of most of the ills that plague this country... Republican politicians paid lip-service to education reform and — in typical GOP fashion — left it at that. As part of his efforts to introduce a spine into Republican politics, President Trump has set his sights on the Death Star, aka the Department of Education (DoE). .. The teachers' unions are the root of all evil in this battle. ... Labor...

Appeals courts divided "over whether nonreligious parents’ rights are limited to the initial enrollment decision" and "how broadly to define school authority over curriculum and administrative decisions." ANew Jersey widower who cannot afford private school is fighting to stop his public school district from treating his gender-confused daughter as a boy against his express wishes, even in its "home education program," and calling child protective services for his resistance. Parental rights groups, a prominent transgender child psychologist, a mother whose gender-confused daughter killed herself and more than 20 state attorneys general are among more than a dozen friend-of-the-court briefs supporting...

“The forces behind this coup have done and will do anything to protect their grasp on illegal & illegitimate power.” — Stephen Miller. Let’s not pretend that RussiaGate was ever anything but a “treasonous conspiracy” and a “years’ long coup” as bluntly labeled by the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) on Friday. The election prank launched by Hillary Clinton’s campaign turned into an overt sedition op led by President Barack Obama to overthrow his elected successor, Donald Trump. DNI Tulsi Gabbard went even further and proffered criminal referrals on all this to the US Attorney General. If you think this...

The draft memorandums on resolving the conflict that Moscow and Kyiv exchanged earlier would be the focus of the third round of direct talks between Russia and Ukraine, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday. "The subject of talks is rather complicated; apart from other issues, the draft memorandums that the parties exchanged in the second round will also need to be discussed," he pointed out, News.Az reports, citing TASS.

Stephen Colbert called himself a 'martyr' before firing off a crude message to Donald Trump, warning 'the gloves are off' after the president gloated over The Late Show’s cancellation. The comedian's decade-long run as the host of CBS' late night flagship will end next May, with network insiders suggesting the top-rated show was canceled because it was losing anywhere from $40 to $100million per year.

From flamethrowers to hot pants, Elon Musk has already released a range of weird and wacky products. Now, the billionaire is taking on the likes of McDonald's, Wendy's, and IHOP, with his very first diner. The Tesla Diner is described as a 'retro-futuristic diner and drive-in charging experience.'

A Ukrainian OnlyFans model who went missing in Dubai and was later found severely injured on the side of the road has claimed that CCTV footage of her final moments before losing consciousness was erased by police in a cover-up. Maria Kovalchuk was discovered suffering from a broken spine and limbs back in March and spent time in hospital in a coma. The 20-year-old is now recovering in Norway and broke her silence in an interview which aired yesterday.

The Democrat indicated to former Fox News host Megyn Kelly that he does not agree with his party on whether biological males should be allowed to compete in women's sports, and that biological males cannot actually become women. Potential Democratic presidential contender Rahm Emanuel on Monday admitted in a news interview that a biological male cannot actually become a woman, marking a significant break from what has become the mainstream view in his party. Emanuel, who previously stated he was "in training" to run for the Oval Office, is a powerful figure in Democratic politics, having served as the ambassador...

Most people use their allotted sick time for an unexpected illness, sick child, or medical procedure and don't see the utilization of that time as having the potential to be an act of civil disobedience or protest against the government or their employer. However, one group rising in membership plans to use their sick time for precisely that — taking a page out of organized labor's handbook and using their collective action to expose and potentially even directly impact what they view as systemic injustices against the working class of the United States. Known as "The People's Sick Day," the...

The nation’s future hinges on restoring justice — or surrendering to the swamp. The esteemed Thomas Sowell, easily the most important economist of the last 50 years, turned 95 a couple of weeks ago. He has an extraordinary ability to take complex ideas about economics and culture and distill them down in prose that speaks to everyone from PhDs to those with a GED. His ability and willingness to address issues from race to economics to history in compellingly readable books are unmatched. Indeed, his Cultures trilogy is one of the most robust weapons one might equip themselves with in...

In a video posted on YouTube on Friday, July 18, the World Champion Wrestling star, 55, revealed that he had an above-the-knee amputation on his right leg due to injuries he sustained in a car accident in August 2020.

EU Elite to Stage 'Spectacular' False Flag, Send Youth to DIE on the Front: Alex Krainer Krainer speculates, on the basis that, in Britain, a nation with some of the greatest number of closed-circuit cameras of any in the world, all the cameras are now turned off—that a false-flag attack is planned that will afford Britain the pretext for supplying Ukraine with a nuclear bomb. The notion advanced by Krainer—that the United Kingdom, a nation saturated with some of the densest surveillance infrastructure in the Western world, would coincidentally disable or deactivate its CCTV network—can only be understood as a...

Democratic strategist James Carville ripped Democrats for their lack of unity and warned that the party is “steamrolling toward a civilized civil war” in a new essay. “Constipated. Leaderless. Confused. A cracked-out clown car. Divided,” Carville wrote in a Monday guest essay published in The New York Times. “These are the words I hear my fellow Democrats using to describe our party as of late. The truth is they’re not wrong: The Democratic Party is in shambles.” Carville said that New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s win in the city’s primary “represents an undeniable fissure in our political soul.”...
