04/10/21   In his 22 years, Rafer Johnson has done many things and all of them extraordinarily well. His mother says of him: “We tried to teach him to walk straight, talk straight and think straight … He just naturally became good at everything…”   When his parents guided him toward church work, Rafer sang in the choir and was active in youth groups. In high school at Kingsburg, California, he captained the track, basketball and football teams, and gained stature as a power hitter on the baseball nine.   After entering University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), Rafer [More]
04/10/21 “A lesson for all of us.” Admin The call came one September morning, before I’d had my coffee. “Julie, he’s drinking again.”   Our family member had relapsed. Not for the first time. I got off the phone and felt myself slipping too. Not by drinking, but by “stinking thinking,” the distorted thought patterns that had made my life unmanageable. Overanalyzing. Obsessing. Trying to control things.   Clyde, our four-year-old yellow Labrador retriever, came into the kitchen as I poured my coffee, prancing as much as a 100-pound dog could prance. He knew it was time for a walk. [More]
04/04/21 The resurrection of Jesus Christ is one of the most important biblical truths there is. Next to the Crucifixion, it is the most significant event in church history. It isn’t a peripheral issue; it’s foundational. It’s bedrock. It’s the bottom line. Not only does the Resurrection tell us that we will live beyond the grave, but it also tells us there is hope beyond this life. In fact, the Bible says, “Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died. So you see, just as death came into [More]
04/01/21   “Some disturbing food for thought from Michael.” Admin   If you’ve felt like the world has turned upside down and inside out, you are not alone. It’s not a dream, it’s not a nightmare, it’s not an Ambien-induced episode, and there’s no waking up from it. Unlike the cat ladies on Facebook who insist on posting the “hang in there memes,” I’m honest enough with you to tell you how it is. Not how I hoped it would be, or what the best-case scenario will look like if a thousand things happen in sequential order, akin to winning [More]

Dispelling challenges to common practices surrounding Christmas, Glenn provides strong historical why many of our practices aren’t rooted in pagan traditions. Click Here to Listen
12/09/20   For more than 15 years, I have been saying that those who came out of the closet would want to put us in the closet, meaning that gay activists calling for “equality” and “tolerance” would want to silence dissenting voices. About 10 years ago, a Christian attorney said to me, “Mike, take that one step farther. Those who were once put in jail will want to put us in jail.”   When I repeated his comment on Christian TV, I was widely ridiculed by the left. “No one wants to put people like you in jail!”   In [More]
12/04/20   “On Mario Murillos blog you can read this and many other great posts he’s made.”  Admin   It is truly stunning and disappointing how fast the American Church is rolling over and playing dead. It is impossible to imagine a worse time for them to both believe lies and tell lies.   So, I beseech you—if at all possible—to take this somewhere quiet and read it all the way through without stopping.   Here are the fat lies:   Read More: Mario Murillo Ministries
12/03/20 “You can read more of Michael’s great blog posts here: http://proofthebibleistrue.com/michael-boldea-jrs-30-latest-blog-posts-always-a-good-read/   What have you done? These were the four words that formed the question God asked Cain while still covered in his brother Abel’s blood and gore. It’s not as though God didn’t know what Cain had done, but I dismiss the idea that the question was rhetorical in nature, offhand. God doesn’t play word games, He doesn’t do gotcha moments, so when the question was posed, I believe it had more to do with the full extent of the consequences of what Cain had done rather than [More]
09/26/20   The spread of coronavirus has shut down public life, led to the loss of millions of jobs and enforced social distancing measures that have left many feeling afraid and anxious.   There’s never been a better time to use Scripture, prayer and positivity to fight fear and choose faith. To help you find peace in the midst of this panic, we rounded up our best articles on fighting fear:   Read More: How to Fight Fear and Stay Positive During Trying Times | Guideposts
09/26/20   Intimate relationships of any kind are our greatest spiritual assignments. They are meant to mirror and magnify whatever is going on inside of us, serving as a reflection of our relationship with God. I thought I knew who I was before I got married. I thought I was grounded in my faith. I thought I had it all under control. I thought wrong.   For the first three years of my marriage, I would cringe whenever I saw what I perceived to be “happy couples” talking about their relationship. Their fairytale love anecdotes made me feel like my [More]
09/26/20   “It’s astounding just how few Americans in all age groups hold a standard Biblical worldview.”  Admin   Although 61% of American millennials consider themselves to be Christian, just 2% of them were found to hold a biblical worldview, according to a recent study released by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University.   A biblical worldview, as previously defined by Barna, includes believing that absolute moral truths exist, and that such truth is defined by the Bible, as well as firm belief in six specific religious views. Those views are that Jesus Christ lived a sinless life; [More]
09/26/20   As more evidence seemingly suggests, the Judeo-Christian values are essential contributing factors to both social stability and well being of families.   According to a report The New York Times, a study from the Institute for Family Studies and the Wheatley Institution found that “the happiest of all American wives consider themselves religious conservatives.”   As The Blaze noted, the finding didn’t go down with liberals.   A New York Times Opinion tweet read:   “It turns out that the happiest of all wives in America are religious conservatives, followed by their religious progressive counterparts.”   Read More: Liberals Implode as [More]
09/23/20   Actor Jim Caviezel is promising big things with the next installment of The Passion of the Christ.   The star of the original 2004 movie, in which he played Jesus, told Breitbart News he’s received the third draft for the sequel from director Mel Gibson.   The sequel, called The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection, doesn’t have a release date yet but Caviezel expects it to be a hit when it does finally land in theaters.   “Mel Gibson just sent me the third picture, the third draft. It’s coming,” he told Breitbart.   “It’s going to be the [More]
09/23/20   After nearly four decades, the complete Bible is now available in American Sign Language for the first time ever.   Deaf Missions, a ministry dedicated to communicating “the Gospel of Jesus with Deaf people through their heart language, culture and identity,” began the project in the early 1980s.   In 2016, the mission partnered with Wycliffe USA, American Bible Society, Deaf Bible Society, Deaf Harbor, DOOR International, Pioneer Bible Translators, and Seed Company to complete the project, according to Mission Network News.   Read More: First complete sign language Bible available after nearly 4 decades – The Christian [More]
09/23/20   It’s a certainty: Trials will come, tight deadlines will have to be met, you’ll have to smile through pain and God will ask you to take on a seemingly impossible task. And you can do it all (and so much more)! That’s because the same Holy Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead, empowered the early church to fulfill Christ’s commission and kept Paul content in his calling will undoubtedly strengthen you to do what you never thought you could. Don’t know where to begin? These three life-tested steps bring God’s supernatural strength for obedience and victory to [More]
09/23/20   “A good lesson from the Old Testament.” Admin   How do we truly seek the Lord? This question has been marinating in my thoughts for the past few weeks. The answer seems pretty straight forward, but there is more to it than meets the eye. As I was reading through 1 Samuel recently, the Lord showed me something I had not noticed before. In the story of Samuel, I usually focus on what God and Samuel are doing, without stepping back and seeing the big picture. This time, I saw the bigger picture. Samuel is the last of [More]
09/23/20   “Something we all should be doing in these chaotic times.” Admin   The Lord recently spoke to me and said, “Tighten down.” I then had a prophetic vision of a wrench tightening down nuts on a bolt to hold them in place.   What I believe the Lord was revealing to me is that there are many believers who are not consistent in the basic practices of walking with God. There are many who do not spend time in the Word of God. They are also not found in the secret place of prayer and do not live [More]
  09/23/20   In the past two decades, Open Doors has received almost weekly reports of Christians in Iran imprisoned for leading house churches or being part of a house church. When the Iranian revolution of 1979 established a hardline Islamic regime, the next 20 years ushered in a wave of persecution that continues today.  All missionaries were kicked out, evangelism was outlawed, Bibles in the Persian or Farsi language were banned and several pastors killed.   Just recently, appeals for two convicted Christians, Victor bet-Tamaraz and his wife Shamiram Isavi, were rejected with both receiving summons to report to [More]
09/22/20   “Timely commentary from Michael.” Admin   There isn’t very much that is redeemable about Voltaire, but you’ve got to hand it to the old powdered wig wearing curmudgeon, he did come up with some doozies. There is one quote of his that I’ve been mulling over the past few days, and that is, those who can make you believe absurdities can also make you commit atrocities.   Some things don’t ring true until they do. It’s as simple as that, once you get past all the fluff. I remember reading this quote in my youth, and it rang [More]
09/22/20   Archaeologists have discovered three 2,700-year-old relics of the ancient Kingdom of Judah during ongoing excavations in Jerusalem.   The three decorated column heads bear the same style as others of the kingdom, a symbol of the Davidic dynasty. Experts believe the column heads date from the time of King Hezekiah, a descendant of King David.   “This discovery is really a once-in-a-lifetime discovery,” City of David Foundation Vice President Doron Spielman told The Jerusalem Post.   Read More: ‘Once-in-a-lifetime discovery’: Archaeologists uncover pieces of palace connected to King David
09/17/20   On Saturday, Sept. 26, Jonathan Cahn will deliver a prophetic word to America at “The Return,” the national gathering at the Washington Mall.   “The Return” is a sacred assembly according to 2 Chronicles 7:14 and Joel 2. The giving of the word plays a central part. Beyond that, we are living in prophetic times. America has been racing away from God. The nation has been shaken and stands at a most critical and dangerous moment. The Lord is calling us to return. The word to America will be linked to that. As these are critical times, Cahn [More]
09/17/20   Pastor Frank Amedia is known for his bold and accurate prophetic words. In fact, he had the opportunity to share one with President Trump before the 2016 election that I detail in my book, God, Trump and the 2020 Election. This year, the Lord has given Frank insight into what he says are three shifts. I invited Frank onto my God, Trump and COVID-19 podcast to share his recent prophecies related to these shifts and what they mean for our country.   Frank told me, “As you and I were even uncovering the mystery of the COVID back [More]
09/17/20   After nearly 50 years of serving as senior pastor at First Baptist Church Atlanta, Charles Stanley announced during a pre-recorded streaming service on Sunday that he is stepping down. The megachurch said Stanley will be replaced by Dr. Anthony George.   “Earlier this month, I informed the board that I felt the time had come for me to step down as senior pastor,” Stanley said. “I have many wonderful memories. But as much as I love being your pastor, I know in my heart this season has come to an end.”   Read More: Charles Stanley stepping down [More]
09/17/20   A recent poll reveals that teenagers raised in evangelical churches are “far more likely” to carry on the religious identity of their parents than those who attend mainline Protestant churches with their parents.   The recently released Pew Research Center survey polled more than 1,800 American teens (ages 13-17) and found that 80% of them who are raised by evangelical parents keep the religious identity of their parents. In contrast, just 55% of teens whose parents attend mainline Protestant churches reflect their parents’ religious views.   Read More: Survey: Evangelical teens shine in keeping the faith
09/02/20   We hear a lot about fear in the media these days, so much so that fear has almost become normalized. We have fears for our health, fears for our children and fears for the future. But should fear be normal in the life of a believer?   On a recent episode of the Prophetic Spiritual Warfare podcast, host Kathy DeGraw and guest John Ramirez say a collective no. Ramirez, a former Satanist who was, as he says, “a general in the kingdom of darkness,” tells listeners, “Fear is a choice. I can be fearful; who can be courageous? [More]
09/02/20 “Some sad statistics” Admin According to a preliminary release on the findings of the 2020 State of Theology survey, 52% of American adults believe that Jesus was a great teacher, but he is not God.   Among those surveyed who identified as evangelicals, 30% agree that Jesus was merely a great teacher, and “nearly 65% still agree with the statement, Jesus is the first and greatest being created by God”.   Ligonier Ministries’ biennial State of Theology survey “provides key findings on what Americans think about God, truth, the Bible, worship, and ethical issues”, the authors say.   It [More]
09/02/20   “I’ve read a number of prophecies like this and while they are great to read they must not lull us into complacency … we still have to pray and vote!”  Admin   While our nation is fixated on the upcoming election, God has given a word to an Australian pastor that Donald Trump will win a second term. But that same pastor is calling for prayer.   Dr. Reg Morais, founding pastor of Living Faith Community Church in Perth, Australia, and founder of Anoint the World Ministries, first received a prophetic word at the beginning of 2020.
