    A World Without Christmas Part 3

    This episode starts with the controversary surrounding Kirk Cameron's teaching on annihilationism as opposed to the orthodox view of eternal conscious torment in hell. Second is the recent attack in Australia and the Religion of Peace striking again. From there, we explore the third part in a series called "A World Without Christmas. The three sources we are examining are “It’s a Wonderful Life, the Chronicles of Narnia, “Always winter and never Christmas, plus, D James Kennedy’s book, “What if Jesus had never been born? The first 3 chapters dealt with our Lord’s impact when it came to the value of human dignity. The last 3 chapters we explored last week covered Christ’s impact upon education, government, and freedom. This episode covers our Lord's impact on science, enterprise, and human sexuality. The word science means "a state of knowing, or having knowledge." It also means to separate one thing from another, to distinguish. Adam was our first known scientist. He named all the animals and brought distinction in the animal kingdom. In fulfillment of the Dominion Mandate, God’s people believed in an orderly, rational, uniformed, creation, which gave rise to scientific inquiry. Several departments of science were founded by Christians. Christian Scientists believed they were “thinking God’s thoughts after Him.” Kennedy points out that pagan cultures did not have a proper worldview to promote the study of science. They often saw nature as chaotic or ruled by capricious gods. Christ's birth impacted the pursuit of enterprise. Christianity dignified honest labor and enterprise by discouraging sloth and laziness. The Protestant work ethic based upon the Dominion Mandate fueled economic growth and lifted societies out of poverty.

    A World without Christmas Part 2

    This is part 2 in our Christmas series, “A World without Christmas” or in the case of Narnia, “Always winter, never Christmas.” We are weaving together three different sources to determine what a Christless world would look like today. It's a Wonderful Life, Chronicles of Narnia, and D James Kennedy's book, "What if Jesus had not been born?" This episode covers three areas, education, government, and freedom. Before Christ education was for elites only. The masses were intentionally kept ignorant. They were much easier to control. Christ brought a revolution in education. Without words and language spoken first by God, there would be no creation and no way to know our Creator. Armed with this knowledge the church pursued literacy for men and nations. Christianity helped shape modern representative government. The biblical idea that all people are equal before God undermined the oppressive rule of tyrants. Without Christ, rulers believed themselves to be gods. With Christ, rulers became servants. Without Christ, power is concentrated and centralized. The weak are crushed under the heel of the strong and justice bends to the powerful. Kennedy shows how Christ completely reshaped the world’s concept of freedom. First, Christ came to bring spiritual freedom. This led to political and economic freedom. Christian ethics fueled justness, honesty, and responsibility in civil affairs. Because Christianity introduced the idea of human dignity and personal responsibility, the free-market system came into existence. Individuals were seen as morally responsible that have inherent worth and are accountable for their actions. These ideas came straight from Scripture, not ancient pagan thought or economics. In education, Jesus brings light to vanquish ignorance. In government, He brings justice and in society, He brings freedom. Without Christmas, none of this would have been possible. “Let earth receive her king.”

    What if Jesus had not been Born?

    This episode commences a 4 part series that asks the intriguing question, "What if Jesus had not been born? Three sources will be combined to grant some answers. First, the book by the same name. Second, is the holiday classic "It's a Wonderful Life and third is the Chronicles of Narnia where it was always winter, but never Christmas. We know what Bedford Falls became if George Bailey had not been born. What would the world be like if Christ had not been born? It would be like stepping into Narnia under the White Witch’s cruel rule, a land where it is “Always winter, but never Christmas.” Cold. Silent. Indifferent, Jaded, Callous, and Colorless. It would be like stepping into Narnia under the White Witch’s cruel rule, a land where it is “Always winter, but never Christmas.” Cold. Silent. Indifferent, Jaded, Callous, and Colorless. • If Christ had not been born, the dignity of human life and the sacredness of life would remain largely unrecognized by most human souls. • Compassion would be a rare virtue, with no chance of becoming a central virtue in men’s souls. Before Jesus, human life—especially the weak, the elderly, infants, and the unwanted—was cheap. When the true and living God becomes distance to humanity, human life is devalued. After Christ was born, it is no longer the world of Narnia’s Witch. It is not the world of Pottersville anymore. Before Christ, mercy was admired as an idea but rarely practiced as a duty. Christ did not simply command love; He embodied it. His birth was not merely the dawn of salvation—it was the dawn of compassion in a cruel world. Hospitals, orphanages, relief missions—these were not inventions of governments or empires. These flowed from the heart of Jesus and was expressed through His people. His birth was not merely the dawn of salvation—it was the dawn of compassion in a cruel world. Christ did not simply enter history. He transformed it. It is no longer the world of Narnia’s Witch. It is not the world of Pottersville anymore.

    Luther’s Main Points of the 95 Thesis

    This episode covers the three main issues that emerged from the Historic Reformation. What was the divine order of authority in the world between God's Word, the Church, and tradition? Who and what is infallible between the church and the Bible? Keeping the traditions of God while discarding the traditions of men that made void God's commandments. When Luther nailed the 96 Thesis to the door of the Wittenberg Church, he was not seeking to split the church. He was desirous to have a healthy debate with church leaders over their treatment of the Bible and the souls entrusted to their care. First of the point of the Thesis is repentance is spiritual gift not a financial transaction. God is the supreme authority not the pope. All human authority delegated by God has limits.. Indulgences cannot redeem the souls of men nor remove the guilt and shame of sin. Indulgences perverts the true Gospel of the Kingdom. The true treasures in the church are not wealth, but the Gospel of God's grace and mercy. Christians should imitate Christ. Believers should serve others and embrace compassion which means suffer with rather than rely on papal pardons. The Church should use its wealth to help the poor, not exploit them. In summary, he taught forgiveness and salvation come from God, not the Pope or the Church. Indulgences are a human invention that exploits believers, especially the poor. The Church needs reform to return to the teachings of Scripture and the message of grace.

    Notable Reformers

    This episode covers the Historic Reformation. It lists three notables before Martin Luther. They are John Wycliffe, the Morning Star of the Reformation, William Tyndale, and Jan Hus. They all overserved the condition of the Catholic Church and demanded necessary changes to correct the corruption. They argued that the church should not exploit the poor by selling indulgences but help the poor. The true treasure was the Gospel of the Kingdom, not silver and gold. They all believed the Bible not the Pope was the ultimate authority of God in the earth. They worked to get the Scriptures in the mother tongue to fulfill William Tyndale's godly goal “I will cause a boy that driveth the plow shall know more of the Scripture than thou dost..” Luther's statement at the Diet of Worms, "“Unless I am convinced by the testimony of the Scriptures or by clear reason (for I do not trust either in the pope or in councils alone, since it is well known that they have often erred and contradicted themselves), I am bound by the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and will not recant anything, since it is neither safe nor right to go against conscience. May God help me. Amen.” Many men, women, children gave their last ounce of devotion to secure God's Word to this present generation. Do we treasure this redemptive history? Do we know it and are we willing to duplicate their faith to secure a future and a hope for subsequent generations yet to come?

    Discrepancies in Charlie Kirk’s Assassination

    What has been the aftermath of Charli Kirk's Assassination? What powerful dynamics have been set in motion impacting our nation and the world. Is the narrative concerning Kirk's murder consistent with the evidence now coming to light? There are major discrepancies that do not match the official narrative. Chief among them is the direction of the hit. It appears not to be coming from the front, but from behind. See video for evidence in this link. The majority of recent conspiracy theories have been proven true. It is important to keep our discernment level high but not be conspiracy minded. There is an important Biblical distinction here. Isaiah 8:11-14, "or the Lord spoke thus to me with [i]a strong hand and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying: “Do not say, ‘A conspiracy,’ Concerning all that this people call a conspiracy, nor be afraid of their threats, nor be [troubled. The Lord of hosts, Him you shall hallow; Let Him be your fear, And let Him be your dread. 14 He will be as a sanctuary."

    How Then Shall We Live?

    What happens when pastors and elders refuse to address the current evils to the flock of God? It creates a Christianity divorced from reality. How then shall we live when the threat levels have increased and the danger is real? Quote by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman and was quoted in the movie American Sniper, "There are three types of people in this world: sheep, wolves, and sheepdogs. Some people prefer to believe that evil doesn't exist in the world, and if it ever darkened their doorstep, they wouldn’t know how to protect themselves. Those are the sheep. Then you've got predators—wolves—who use violence to hurt the weak. And then there are those who have been blessed with the gift of aggression and the responsibility to protect the flock. These people are a rare breed, and they live to confront the wolf. They are the sheepdogs." There is a need for Christian men to become sheepdogs again. This is also true on the international front as Europe may need to be recued from foreign invaders. What about the Crusaders and the just war theory? The founding of America and the shot heard around the world that took place at a church parking lot. Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrestling between his strong love ethic and commitment to pacifism in the face of Hitler's evil. The episode concludes with Biblical principles on God. war, violence, and defense.

    Turning Point?

    This episode covers that last couple of days of monumental events impacting our nation. The first one is personal. Our granddaughter Daisy Mae's life is hanging in the balance. We need a miracle. Second, is the sad and infuriating incident in that happened in Charlotte, NC. Not sure what was the worst situation in that unprovoked attack against Iryna. Was it the crazed career criminal, the corrupt justice system, the fake news racial deceptive narratives, or the apathy and lack of intervention by those who stood idly by and didn't lift a finger to try and save her life? Third, is the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk. The threat level has risen and the danger is real. The powers that be are using this to get people angry to lash out or make them fearful and hide. We must not fall for the bait and we need to spit out the scandalon. We must also be prepared as Christian men to protect and defend victims from their predators. Men gat back in shape, Become strong, learn to be proficient in firer arm's training. develop a security team at your church and remain vigilant.

    MVP Masculinity

    Here is the second message delivered at out first annual KLI Manhood Bootcamp. It is based upon an interview between Jordan Peterson and Tim Tebow. Jordan was curious to know how can Tim be so fiercely completive in sports, hate the thought of losing and have this sense of a higher calling and service to the least of these. Tim didn't flinch, "I must fight for those who cannot fight for themselves." This is Tim's vision statement, "“to bring faith, hope and love to those who need a brighter day in their darkest hour of need.” Through the competition of sports and his work with his family on the mission field he learned to pursue being the MVP, Most Valuable Player to rescue the Most Vulnerable People. This episode covers this topic Biblically by studying the life of Job in chapter 29. He was the MVP of his day. C S Lewis stated, "“In a sort of ghastly simplicity we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful.” To remedy that dreadful state, C. S. Lewis wrote that the disparate strands of manhood-- fierceness and gentleness--can find healthy synthesis in the person of the knight and in the code of chivalry. Here these competing impulses--normally found in different individuals--find their union." God’s word affirms this call men, "Be brave, be strong and do all things in love (1 Corinthians 16:13). Jordan Peterson stated, "“A harmless man isn’t a good man. A good man is a dangerous man who has everything under voluntary control.” He also declared, "“And if you think tough men are dangerous, wait until you see what weak men are capable of.” "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times" Gentlemen, become an MVP for Christ and for the Most Vulnerable People! AMEN.

    Heritage and Legacy of a Man

    Episode begins with a recap of our first annual KLI Manhood Bootcamp. I share God's dealings with me as a young man and His dealings with me as an old man. Psalms 78:1-8 demands fathers perk up, listen and pass on the faith and create a multi=Kingdom generational vison to their posterity. Though Israel had great Kings, Prophets, and Priests, their main failure was a failure of fatherhood to pass on a godly heritage and legacy. Psalms 71:17, 18 and the importance of understanding the continuum which captures the past, present, and future. Men cannot afford to hire professionals in the state and the church to replace their duties and responsibilities. To pass on a godly legacy and heritage, men must seek to accomplish two main goals. The first is to pass on a godly heritage and the second a financial inheritance. Proverbs 13:22 states, “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.” If a man does not provide for his family, it is a serious affront to God. God says, he is worse than an infidel and has denied the faith. King David’s preparations and provision for Solomon is a tremendous example to drive home this aspect of fatherhood. David's preparations encompassed both spiritual and practical aspects that ensured Solomon's success in obeying God's will and fulfill the scared task.

    Trump Wants to go to Heaven

    We heard it through the grapevine President Trump wants to go to Heaven. There is the rub. How does one obtain heaven to escape the torments of hell. There is a way that seems right to man, but ends in death. It is good that he desires this. As men age mortality comes a knocking. Death is an enemy that Satan uses to torment men and nation with fear. Yet, God has put eternity in every man's soul. Trump may seek it, but the way he is going about it will never secure his place in paradise. It is good he seeks to bee a peacemaker, but he could end all wars, but still not merit heaven. We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus chrsit. Salvation is not of works should any man boast. It is the gift of God. What if you gain the whole world, build an historical legacy as president and lose your own soul. Trump needs to change his spiritual advisors. He needs someone who loves him enough to tell him the true Gospel. Let's pray for those in authority.

    When the Kingdom Introduction

    My wife, Kendra Thomas, just finished the grammar edit on our newest book :When the Kingdom" Derin Stidd and Jason Storms are working on the content edit. I want to make sure it passes theological and historical muster be fore publishing. There is a possibility that Canon Press will publish the book. This podcast episode goes through the introduction of the book that describes my journey from the Gospel to the Gospel of the Kingdom. The book is built upon two main premises. First concerns the time frame reference concerning the Kingdom of God. . Has it come? Is there a present reality, and will it impact the future of this planet? Has it been withdrawn as some claim and put on pause and one day soon at the "end times" God will press play again and it will be resumed? The premise of this book is the Kingdom came with the first coming of the King. Second, once the Kingdom comes, it is destined to conquer all the kingdoms of men and God's Kingdom will never be destroyed.

    Interview with My Son, Micah Thomas

    This interview starts with Micah's complications at birth that lead to him being a part of redemptive history. The doctor who pieced together Baby Malachi, who though dead still speaks, helped bring Micah into the world. My first wife, Liz, was cared for and stayed with Ronda Mackey whose daughters and Brother Flip Benham were instrumental in Norma McCorvey's conversion. to Christ. She was the Jane Roe of Roe vs. Wade infamy. Micah came out one big muscle. He was jacked. At a young age he demonstrated incredible artist skills. Micah shares his salvation testimony and how it led to creating a greater bond between us as father and son. Micah left home at 18 to follow in my foot steps to serve in New Life Drama company, along with his brothers, Elijah and Josiah. He was gone for ten years and developed others skills, ministry opportunities, businesses, and a family. Years later we reconnected to plant a church in Florida for the last two years. His skill set became the nuts and bolts that helped our church to plant deep roots and is starting to thrive. Micah has written a book called "Unlost." It is about gaining purpose, both for the unbeliever and God's people. Micah will be leaving soon to start another church plant in Roswell. GA. Though our church will be diminished, God's Kingdom will expand. Godspeed son. Love ya!

    Is Justice Coming?

    "Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known" (Matthew 10:26). Tulsi Gabbard, the United States Director of National Intelligence just dropped a bombshell report indicting the Obama administration and his ilk with evidence they orchestrated a coup to topple Trump's presidency. For a long time, those who broke the law and got away with crimes were rewarded and promoted in America. Is it now time that justice will finally come? In the days of lawlessness, those who keep the law become the outlaw. "He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God (Micah 6:8). A sign the God is judging a nation is when its national policy is victimization. A sign that God is resorting a nation is accountability and personal responsibility. We need to pray and demand transparency, truth and justice prevail. May these criminals be brought to justice and God restore righteousness and justice in the gates of our land.

    AI and the Future

    This episode covers the advent of the new AI Grok introduced by Elon Musk. Some are deeply concerned, other say chill. What say ye? Will AI become the new master of humanity? What is the long term impact? Will it improve human life or destroy it? The history of science and technology discoveries always leads men and nations to compete and develop it to remain superior and remain on top. For instance, discovery of gun powder in China led to muskets, rifles, cannons, and now nuclear bombs that can wipe out entire regions of this planet. Where and when does ethics enter to guide these technologies? Just because we can do something, doesn't mean we should. What will human life and activities look like when AI replaces our brains and brawn? As for me and my house, let it be known AI is not my new master, and we will continue to love and serve the Lord.

    Homeschool and the Kingdom

    American Reformation Church is launching a Homeschool Support group page. Three main reasons to Homeschool: Frist, to honor God's chosen government to educate our young which in family government. Education is not just a learning issue, but a jurisdictional issue. Second, to protect our children from the spirit of the age and the evils propagated by government sponsored public education. Third, to pass on a multi-Kingdom generational vision to our children. This episode explores Noah Webster's first edition 1828 dictionary that defines the word education. The importance of training our children in godly character. Academics are important, but not as important as a religious education. An immense responsibility rests on the parents and not the state or the church. Warnings from history: Martin Luther, the Father of the Reformation, stated, “I am very much afraid that schools will prove to be the great gates of hell unless they diligently labor in explaining the Scriptures, engraving them in the hearts of youth. I advice no one to place his child where the Scriptures do not reign paramount. Every institution in which men are not increasingly occupied with the Word of God must become corrupt.” Study the Humanist and Communist Manifestoes to discover their plans to use public education to introduce a new religion humanism to replace the rotting corpse of Christianity. John Milton, author of Paradise Lost, grants stated, “The end of learning is to repair the ruin of our first parents by regaining to know God aright; and out of that knowledge to love Him, to imitate Him, and to be like Him.”

    No Kings Day

    In response to No Kings Day, we don't need another one. We have the 4th of July. Besides, there is no king, but Christ. this has Biblical as well as historical significance for our nation. There is another King, one called Jesus. John Adams, stated, "“We recognize no sovereign, but God and no king, but Jesus." Samuel Adams considered the Father of the Revolutionary War stated, “We have this day restored the Sovereign to whom alone men ought to be obedient. He reigns in heaven and… from the rising to the setting sun, may His kingdom come.” George Washington was offered to become king and he flatly refused. Washington stated, "It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible." According to John Adams the 4th of July, "Ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty." In the Declaration of Independence, the God of the Bible is mentioned 4 times. He is the Law-giver, the Creator, the Supreme Judge, and to divine providence our Founding Fathers pledged their .lives, fortunes, and sacred honor. Every reformer in America when we went astray as a nation called our country back to God and our national creed

    Cooperation of Church and State

    This episode starts with a brief update on family, church, KLI Manhood Bootcamp and KLI School. The phrase separation of Church and State does not appear in our founding documents. It is in the Bile where there is a separation of church and state. Though there is no separation from any government of man from God who created, ordained, and established them. The church is not to be the master of the state, the slave of the state, but the moral conscience of the state. -Martin Luther King Jr. We need prophetic men like Moses, Elijah, Nathan, and John the Baptist to bring correction to civil magistrates who neglect their duties or abuse their authority before God. The state has three primary duties as the Minister of God and that is restrain evil, protect innocent life, and stop the shedding of innocent blood. Paul adds in the New Testament, the state is to punish the evildoer and protect those who are good in God's sight. Every church should have a mission to the magistrate as a part of their outreach programs.

    Memorial Day Message

    Whereas Veteran’s Day honors the service of our veterans who put themselves in harm’s way to protect our liberties. Memorial Day honors the sacrifice of the many American soldiers that gave their last ounce of devotion in Freedom’s cause. Memorial Day has its roots in the Civil War. It was first called Decoration Day. The first official year to honor Memorial Day was 1868. It grew to remember all our fallen soldiers in all American wars. Since 1775, an estimated 1.19 million American military members have died in American wars. God’s Word is also strong on the concepts of memorials. They served two primary purposes. Frist to recall God's Faithfulness in times past and second, to have a point of contact to pass on a future and hope to our children. It is to secure a multi-generational Kingdom vision for our posterity. This episode discusses General MacArthur's address to West Point in 1962 and the "No Greater Love" ethic a soldier exercises in war. It is the Soldier, not the minister who has given us freedom of religion. It is the Soldier, not the reporter who has given us freedom of the press. It is the Soldier, not the poet who has given us freedom of speech. It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer who has given us freedom to protest. It is the Soldier, not the lawyer who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the Soldier, not the politician who has given us the right to vote. It is the Soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag.

    Interview with Brian Ottinger: KLI Men’s Camp

    Brian and I discuss his family background and conversion to Christ. Immediately, he believed he was called to be a missionary. A couple of years later he studied at a seminary, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and became a pastor of Convergence Church in North Carolina. Eventually, he became aware of the plight of the preborn and started to bring the Gospel of the Kingdom to the gates of hell. This led him to go full time in life saving missions. He became the Director of Expansion of Love Life. The mission statement of Love Life is as follows, “LOVE LIFE IS UNITING AND MOBILIZING THE CHURCH TO CREATE A CULTURE OF LOVE AND LIFE THAT WILL RESULT IN AN END TO ABORTION AND THE ORPHAN CRISIS.” The topic changed to discuss our partnership together with Jason Storms and Derin A Stidd and our promotion of our first KLI Man’s Camp and the official launch of our KLI School online. The dates for the Man's Camp are August 22nd-24th in Melbourne, FL. The vision is three-fold. First to connect fathers and sons to help strengthen that bond. Second, to equip men with their duties and responsibilities to restore Biblical masculinity in a nation that attacks it. Third, to recruit students for our Kingdom Leadership Institute Online School that is ready to officially launch this New Year, Spring Semester 2026.

    In Loving Memory of Marilyn Carroll

    The church is getting ready to commemorate the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This episode is dedicated to the memory and legacy of Marilyn Carroll. She was a good friend, devoted sister in Christ, and faithful servant of the Lord in Operation Save America. she and the OSA contingency in Connecticut were a full orbed Christian ministry which produced tremendously good fruit in God's Kingdom. They fired on all pistons, prophetic, evangelistic, and mercy ministries. Well done thou good and faithful servant. She will have a large crown to cast at the feet of her Lord and great shall be her reward. Good night for now sweet sister, we shall see you in the morning.

    Bills of Abolition with Jason Storms

    This episode covers Jason and I traveling to Atlanta and participate in a rally to abolish abortion in the state of Georgia. We discuss the national landscape and the growth of the abolitionist movement in America. There are several states introducing bills of abolition. The two main hindrances to treat abortion as a crime of murder is the Republican establishment leadership and the professional pro-life lobby. The mentality of the pro-life movement that treats women who murder their babies and are treated as a second victim guarantees child sacrifice and the shedding of innocent blood will continue unabated. We are seeking consistency. Something that passes the truth test of justice. God puts no difference between the born child and the preborn child and man has no authority to change that distinction. The same laws and penalties that apply to protect the born should be the same for the preborn. This does not mean we hate women or are hunting women down to prosecute them. It means we are consistent in criminalizing criminal activity whether it is committed by a man or a woman. Jason also announced his upcoming OSA reginal event in South Carolina. The dates are March 12-15. The national media has contacted Jason and is very much concerned about OSA coming to South Carolina since Trump pardoned the rescuers and refuses to enforce FACE. In the links below you can find more information.

    Love Does Not Envy

    The greatest virtue of the Old Testament was wisdom. It was the principled thing. The greatest of these in the New Testament is love. Faith will become sight and hope will be realized but God's love is everlasting. Love is the more excellent way. Men are impressed with gifting, but God is impressed by character. Gifts are given, fruit is grown. God's Word describes what love is and what love will never do. Love will not envy. It will slay the green-eyed monster. there is a connection between envy and covetousness. Envy is the motive and coveting is the sinful act that violates God's Commandment. How do you know you struggle with envy? Does the success of others bring you pain and displeasure? There is a difference between envy and emulation. The Bible has several examples of this kind of envy and its devastating impact. Cain and Abel, Joseph and his brothers, Saul and David to name a few impacted by envy. Jesus was betrayed and murdered based upon the envy of the religious leaders of His day. Mark 15:10, “For he knew that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy.” Envy brings rottenness to our bones which negatively impacts our health. It is earthly, sensual, and demonic. How to cure envy? Weep with those who weep and rejoice with those who rejoice.

    Women Pastors?

    This podcast episode covers: What is a woman perplexing question? The legitimate issue concerns of the women's liberation movement. It devolved from there to the debacle it has become. First phase of the feminist movement, we want to be equal to men. Second phase, we are superior to men and don’t need them. Third phase, we are men. The pagan roots of androgyny that seeks to remove the God ordained distinctives between the male and the female. Egalitarianism confuses the difference between function and value in the Bible. God forbids women to be pastors. 1 Timothy 2:12-14 states, “And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.” The Trump inaugural "church" service reminded the world why God forbids women pastors. G.K. Chesterton summed up this sorry state of affairs by declaring, "The modern world is full of old Christian virtues gone mad." It was Christ and His command that a church leader be the husband of one wife that change the fortunes and elevated the status of women in the world. Feminists are biting the hand that has fed them.

    Interview with Dr. Jana: Reforming the Healthcare System

    The episode introduces Dr. Jana and her Christian testimony. We discussed what inspired her to pursue the medical field and become a doctor. Dr. Jana shared her early influences between her hippy mother, which first inspired living off the land and natural remedies and her Navy Seal Dad, who was a traditional doctor. eventually, through much training, study, and hard work she approached illness from a holistic rather than a traditional one. Dr. Jana critiques the current corrupt healthcare system and her involvement with the current Trump administration to reform it. Dr. Jana will be working with RFK Jr to help make America healthy again. The episode ends with practical tips to help families protect their health while prayerfully the healthcare system is reformed.

    Behold the King: The Prophets

    This podcast episode continues the series of “Behold the King” this Advent season.Today we will behold Him from the book of Isaiah.The calling of the propjet was a difficult Kingdom assignment.It was wrought with danger, persecution, misunderstanding and martyrdom.Isaiah was sawn asunder.In some ways, God’s prophets were His prosecuting attorneys as the Lord brought covenantal cases upon Israel and the surrounding pagan nations.One word to describe Prophet in the Hebrew is the word Nabi (Heb. nabi, which means "to bubble forth, as from a fountain," hence "to utter”. In the time of Samuel another word, ro'eh , "seer", began to be used. This reveals God’s prophets were visionary leaders of God’s people. They could foretell, predict the future and prophesy of future events down to the minutest details like we see in Isaiah 53. They also were called to forth tell. Jeremiah 23:22, “But if they had stood in My counsel, and had caused My people to hear My words, Then they would have turned them from their evil way and from the evil of their doings.” Another term is kosem "diviner," a word typically used for false prophets like Balaam.Isaiah has some of the most glorious detailed prophecies concerning the Messiah in all the prophetic books. Skeptics claim Isaiah was written after the Gospels, because no one could be that accurate. Isaiah presents a full portrait of the Messiah. He is a child, but God. He has a victorious Kingdom, but He is a Suffering Servant.The Scriptures covered in this episode are Isaiah 2:1-3, 7:14, and 42:1-4.Behold your King church and let earth receive her King.

    Behold the King: The Psalms

    Jesus stated in John 5:39, “You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me.” Psalms is to be considered the hymnal and prayer book of the Old and New Testaments.God’s people memorized, sang the Psalms, and most knew them by heart.Psalm 2 promised a Son that would be set upon God’s holy hill in the midst of the nations rebelling against His rule.God laughs at them and promises His Son “The nations for Your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for Your possession.”He sends a warning to the kings and judges of the world to kiss the Son, for he rules with a rod of iron that the Apostle John affirms in Revelation 12:5.“Many shall war against the Lamb, but the Lamb shall conquer them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings (Revelation 17:14).The Apostle’s quote Psalm 2 in connection to their era, time, and predicament in Acts 4:23-31. It was being fulfilled in their day.Psalm 22: My God, my God why have you forsaken me? Christ repeats this Psalm on the cross. He started the song that The Jewish people sang for centuries. They did not finish the song. If they did, they would have realized the song was being fulfilled right before their eyes right down to the crucifixion and dividing His garments among them, and for His clothing by lots. How does this Psalm end?  “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before You. For the kingdom is the Lord’s, and He rules over the nations” (Psalms 22:27, 28).Psalms 72 describes the nature of his reign and what Messiah will accomplish in the earth. Jordan Peterson had a vision of verse 11, and helped him on his spiritual journey. The Magnificat of Mary draws from Psalm 72 and affirms its coming to pass with the birth or her son, Jesus (Luke 1:46-55).What the first Adam failed to do, the second Adam accomplished. Adam lost the dominion mandate; Christ regained it and is fulfilling it even as I preach. Jude declares His dominion, “To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.”Lastly, Psalms 110:1. It is the most popular verse in the New Testament. Some even to dare call it God’s favorite Bible verse. It is the most repeated Old Testament verse in the New Testament. This verse sums up the intention of God for His Kingdom, the church, and our future. Paul quotes this verse in 1 Corinthians 15:23-27. This is worth celebrating church. It is worth the feasting, gift giving, and singing Christmas hymns. It is worth all the fellowship, praise, and worship of our King during this season and forevermore.Behold the King church and let earth receive her King. Merry Christmas!

    Behold our King : The Torah

    f God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begWelcome to Advent season. Advent means arrival. The Christmas hymn, O Holy Night, captures the essence of this particular arrival, “Long lay the world in sin and error pining til He appeared and the soul felt its worth.”Advent brings up the concept of the Incarnation.Incarnation according to the dictionary means “endowment with a human body; appearance in human form. It is something embodied in the flesh.Who or what is being embodied in the flesh?Isaiah 9:6, 7 and Isaiah 7:14 answers these questions.The Gospel of John starts with “In the beginning.” This connects to God Almighty who in the beginning created the heavens and the earth.The Nicene Creed declares that Jesus is “God ootten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made.”Jesus testified, “Before Abraham was, I AM!”Without Christ nothing was made that was made. This excludes Him from being a made being as some cults and false religions teach.In the Torah, God promised a Messiah. The promise of Genesis 3:15 is called the protoevangelium by most Biblical scholars. This is the historical point when the Gospel of the Kingdom and its saving grace was first introduced into the world. A King was promised. A Champion would be born. A Savior would come. A Deliverer would arise. A Great Physician would visit this sick, sin soaked world with healing in His wings (Malachi 4:2).Genesis 49:10 reveals through the tribe of Judah, a scepter, a lawgiver, and Shiloh, the One who brings peace will bring about the obedience of all people.Moses declared that God would raise up a prophet like him. To Him all people should listen. If not, they would be cut off and destroyed.Acts 3:19-23 reveals that prophet to be Jesus Christ our Lord.Behold your King in the Torah and let the world receive her King.Merry Christmas!

    The Trump Effect

    What a difference a day makes.With the election of Trump our nation and world has undergone a massive transition.There is a new sheriff in town and the world knows it.This podcast episode covers most of the major responses from national and world leaders. Within 48 hours and not even in the oval office, America has rebounded on the world stage as Trumps’ peace through strength policies have already brought incredible results in our nation and the world. Unelected and unaccountable beauracrats of the deep state stand to lose a lot of money, power, and influence.Trump and his staff will continue to be a target.1 Timothy 2:1-4, “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and [c]reverence.  For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.”

    Tucker Carlson Mauled by Demons

    The episode starts with the call to fast and pray to defeat Amendment 4 in Florida.Next, how the manifestation of evil is leading people back to God.Tucker Carlson testifies that he was mauled by a demon. This led to an intense study of the Bible that revolutionized his faith.Friends I know in the battle have been attacked by demons.It happened to me on 4 separate occasions.I share 3 of many exorcisms God used to set the captives free. Jesus declared, “But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you” (Matthew 12:28).As the Kingdom of God advances by the truth of the Gospel and the power of the Spirit of God, the more demons manifest and the church can drive them out.

    Spying out the Land

    Quick update on our survival of Hurricane Milton.The importance of spying out the land, gathering accurate information to wage a good warfare.The 101st Airborne training to acquire scouting skills that records any weak areas along the enemy’s perimeter, ammo dumps, communication lines, officer’s headquarters, supply chains, bunkers, gas reserves, artillery locations, and such. This information was critical to planning an effective attack.Drones, satellites, and modern technology has replaced the brawn, brain, and daring of men. Moses sent the men in to spy out the land and give an intelligence report. They all agreed on the major facts of their investigation and gave an accurate report. It was how they interpreted the report was in dispute. Most of them got it wrong and it cost Israel greatly. David relied on divine strategies from God to wage a good warfare. It was not a one size fits all or a cookie cutter strategy. It was different strategies for different battlefronts.Isaiah 14:12-14 grant us an intelligence report in the enemy’s camp.What is the intelligence report when it comes to the scourge of child sacrifice and the shedding of innocent blood today?The Dobb's Decision and kicking the abortion controversy back to the states.How are the political parties, Democrat and Republican responding at the state level?What is the church's obligation in the short term and long term to defeat abortion at the state level?Due to Hurricane Milton, Operation Save America's national event in Orlando was postponed. Standing Firm is now scheduled for October 23rd-26th.Come and join us and answer this Macedonian call to defeat Amendment 4 in Florida.

    God of the Storm

    Psalms 107:23-31.God creates storms and calms storms that men cry out to Him and be saved.God used a storm many times in redemptive history. Our pilgrim forefathers and mothers almost drowned in the sea, were blown off course, and landed at Plymouth Rock due to a storm.Hurricane Helene and the rare manifestation of a hurricane caused massive damage over several states. Hurricane Milton is scheduled to hit Florida as a category 4 and we are on the projected path on the east coast. Prayers appreciated.Operation Save America is scheduled to have their national event at the same time the hurricane is scheduled to slam Florida's west coast and pass over Orlando.We make our plans, but God directs our steps.Some of my family may evacuate, but as long as some of our family and the church remains here, my duty is clear.Please pray for us as we hunker down, access the damage and then seek the Lord on relief efforts in Jesus' name!

    Enemy of the State

    This podcast covers what happens to nations when they consider Christianity an enemy of the state.There is a short overview Biblically and historically when this unfortunate incidence arise.Statism is deifying the sate and replaces the role of God in the life of its citizens. When statism perceives Christianity a threat, the truth is our liberties are being threatened. The battle that rages from within and from without comes down to two basic issues. who is Lord, Christ or Caesar and whose laws are to reign in the affairs of men, God or man's law.There have be a string of harsh prison sentences rendered against Christians by the Bide/Harris regime. Jesus asked, "Jesus stated, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill" (Mark 3:4)?Thomas Jefferson, our third president, stated, “The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only object of good government."When the laws of men violate the laws of God our Christian duty is clear. We must obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29).The episode covers examples of the doctrine of interposition, the Underground Railroad and hiding Jews in Nazi Germany. Though considered criminals by the state, today, we view them as heroes of the faith.If we won't be rules by God, we will be ruled by tyrants.God is using the persecution of Trump, the J6s, and the rescuers to expose the two system tier of justice and the weaponization of our federal agencies to go after their perceived political enemies. Thankfully, it is awakening the citizens of our land to the danger of totalitarianism.  In redemptive history, this statement has sustained the church through the times that try the souls of man; “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.” Redemptive suffering has always moved God’s heart to unleash His mighty arm of deliverance. By faith, we should expect that pattern to be made manifest in our generation as well.Hebrews 13:3 states, “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.”

    America the Violent

    This podcast explores how our nation went from being America the Beautiful to America the Violent. The two unsuccessful assassination attempts expose our national hypocrisy. There are two main reason for the deformity of America. We abandoned the true and living God. and violence and perversion always replace Him. You abandon God and you not only lose spiritual and moral sense, you lose your common sense. America has been reduced to the place of absurdity and we have become the laughing stock amongst the nations of the earth as the inmates rum the asylum. Secondarily, the violence we commit in the womb produces the violence outside of the womb. God is not mocked. What men and nations sow, they shall surely reap. God's Word calls out to us, "“You turn man to destruction, and say, “Return, O children of men." (Psalms 90:3). If my people...

    Kingdom Projects and Ministry Updates

    The foundation passage of Scripture for this episode is Psalms 92:12-15. It centers on older saints still bearing good Kingdom fruit as they age and are weakened in the way. I have two last Kingdom assignments that concern our family and the future of the Kingdom. This episode gives an update on the American Reformation Church as we near our one year anniversary. We launch the Kingdom Leadership Institute one week from now. This is a tremendously rewarding experience as this Kingdom vision is coming to pass. This episode gives an update on our work to defeat Amendment 4 that if passed would enshrine abortion in our state constitution. This episode promotes Operation Save America's national event in Orlando Florida from October 9th-12th. There are two Kingdom writing projects in the works. One is my latest book called "When the Kingdom" and the second is a collaboration with my son working on a movie script. Episode ends with a request for prayer as I make known a serious need and dilemma in our family.

    Abortion and Healthcare Crisis

    This episode covers a whistleblower interview with Tucker Carlson and Calley and Casey Means. this brother and sister team wrote a ground breaking book called "Good Energy." They describe how Big Pharma, food companies, and medical industry conspires to make us food addicts, keep us sick, and keep us as lifetime customers. As I listened to the stats, agenda, severe consequences that comes from this corrupt system and how it is impacting especially the health of our children, I was reminded of our warnings we have given for years concerning child sacrifice and the shedding of innocent blood and God's judgment. God is not mocked! What men and nations sow they shall surely reap. The historic judgements of God are upon the land. Our ecology and economy is negatively impacted. Follow the money. The love of money is the root of all evil. 50 % of American children have chronic illnesses and obesity. Children suffer with increased cases of autism, food allergies, pre-diabetes, which is a leading factor if dementia cases. They are now saying dementia is a 3rd type of diabetes. 40 % of children struggle with mental health issues. 74 % of American are overweight and 77 % are unfit for military service. Cancer rates are skyrocketing amongst both youth and elderly. 25 % of American women are on Anti-depressant meds. Increased levels of estrogen from food and environmental corruption has led to infertility and other chronic illnesses. It is directly connected to the Transgender movement. It is a political and social movement, but has a biological component to it. as our nation is taking a hammer to women's reproduction, soil, and environment we are destroying the essence of life. The major causes to this healthcare crisis is our food has been contaminated and our environment has been contaminated to the point it is a major assault on our metabolical functions of our bodies. It is hitting us a on a cellular level that is overloading our bodies to the point it is breaking down and losing function. Our bodies are being staved as we gain weight and our brains are being underpowered, which leads to illnesses like dementia later in life. The same scientists that were hired to make cigarettes addictive were also hired to make food addictive. This episode ends with the call to repent, make serous changes to protect our family's health.
