Dr George Barna a well know Christian cultural researcher recently gave a speech at the "Pray Vote Stand Summit". He as always was informative with the numbers to show that we are currently experiencing a major crisis. However, Dr Barna failed to address the biggest elephant in the Room and the main reason why America is in the current state that it is in. This was a great opportunity to discuss the real problem but Dr Barna missed his opportunity If you are looking to support my efforts follow the options below: Links:https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/support Cashapp: $kingdomexploitz Venmo: @kingdomexploitz If you wish to support me in other ways or if you want to partner with my efforts in anyway, please email me or inbox me on social media.

In this episode, I bring to your attention the alarming threat posed by a person who I believe is a Hamas agent in America who has issued direct threats to prosecute American politicians and the media. The phrase "barbarians inside the gates" captures the urgency and severity of the situation, highlighting the potential seriousness of such threats if they are allowed to continue. We seen this before but these people are becoming even more bold and aggressive. Join me as I explore the implications of this threat, what I believe causes it and what must be done in response.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD is Injecting itself in a School Board Election New You. According to PA Family council "Planned Parenthood – the abortion giant that has long been a big spender in national and statewide elective politics to promote its agenda – is now extending its tentacles to elections at the school board level. Their obvious target: our children." If you needed a good reaason to be more active in local politics, here is a good one. Planned Parenthood, an organization committed to leftist murderous ideologies is now getting more and more aggressive. The only right thing to do for any christian is to oppose them with your vote.

The idea of book bans in America is largely a misconception. While its true that some books have been challenged or removed from certain libraries or schools, this is not the same as a nationwide ban. A challenge is an attempt to remove or restrict materials based upon the objections of a person or group. A banning is the removal of those materials. Challenges do not simply involve a person expressing a point of view; rather, they are an attempt to remove material from the curriculum or library, thereby restricting the access of others. What some states and school districts are doing is restrict access of sexually explicit material to under aged children. Adults must protect children but it seems for some reason, some so called adults want to expose really small children to sexually explicit content.

In this episode I discuss the fact that most of us are products of progressive education. Not only that but most dont even realize just how successful progressive educators have been in shaping the minds of Americans. Unfortunately this includes the majority of Christians and their children. Even more unfortunate is the fact that Christians have been dupped to go along with this project even though the progressives where upfront about their plans and agenda to secularize America. Looking back today, it is clear without a doubt that progressives have been successful in their project to secularize America.If you are looking to support my efforts follow the options below: Links: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/support Cashapp: $kingdomexploitz Venmo: @kingdomexploitz If you wish to support me in other ways or if you want to partner with my efforts in anyway, please email me or inbox me on social media.

One of the reasons why parents send their children to government school (AKA Public School) is because they want them to be salt and light to their unbelieving friends in school. Not only is this an undue burden on very young and untrained minds but it is not even biblical. In this episode i interact with a paper I found at the Nehemiah Institute website (Nehemiahinstitute.com) titled "Just What is the Salt-and-Light Argument?" written by Jay Jusino. In it the author says "Separation from the essence and practice of the world is not possible for Christian children in public schools because that system exists as a fundamental building process that literally shapes a child's very being. This is what education is supposed to do." The author goes on to say that Christian children cannot be educated by the same system they are supposed to produce light against. Your first, second, and third grader is equipped or even capable of hold his or her own against the onslaught of paganisim unlished on them in the public school environment.

In this episode I am discussing the disaster that is currently happening in the State of Oregon. According to an article in The Atlantic "Three years ago, while the nation's attention was on the 2020 presidential election, voters in Oregon took a dramatic step back from America's long-running War on Drugs. By a 17-point margin, Oregonians approved Ballot Measure 110, which eliminated criminal penalties for possessing small amounts of any drug, including cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine." As any reasonable person can imagine this was a very bad idea. One that should not be tried anywhere else. My contention though is that this too is a result of a miseducated people and for that we have our public schools to thank. Please consider supporting my efforts by following the links below.

According to G.K. Chesterton, "the most important fact about the subject of education is that there is no such thing. Education is not a subject and it does not deal in subjects. It is instead the transfer of a way of life." The Evangelical Christians in America must reclaim their understanding of education, its purpose and why it is important. It is due to our lack of understand that we have relied on a secular government to educate our children for so long. If we really want to make a real impact on the culture we will work to make some serious and lasting changes.

The Bible in 1 Chronicles 12:32 talks about a group of Israelite men, warriors in king David's army, who are also known as the "sons of Issachar". According the bible these men "understood the times and knew what Israel should do". During war you need a group like these men who understand the situation and what needs to be done in response. I think Christians in America are or should be like the sons of Issachar when it comes to the education of future generations.

In this episode I will be going through commenting and reacting to a lecture that was given a few months ago at Dayspring Christian Academy titled "Progressive Education and its Roots". It is session five in their "Remember America" lecture series. I highly recomend it. To be honest I want every Christian minister and pastor to know this stuff. You will be in a better position to help your people as they navigate these waters for their children. I would argue that this is why Dayspring puts these lectures and speaker series together. I am convinced that if more Christians parents knew how things came to be the way they are today with regards to the education of children, they would be doing things differently. "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" Hosea 4:6a A lack of understand of history is the main reason why Christian parents have no problem entrusting their children to the secular humanists for education and discipleship. https://www.dayspringchristian.com/blog/remember-america-lecture-series-week-five-progressive-education-and-its-roots/ If you are looking to support my efforts follow the options below: Links: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/support Cashapp: $kingdomexploitz Venmo: @kingdomexploitz If you wish to support me in other ways or if you want to partner with my efforts in anyway, please email me or inbox me on social media.

In this episode, I look give an example of how the Secular Progressive Education Establishment is intentionally destroying America from within. The main character of interest in this episode is a man named Howard Zinn. Zinn was according to Influence Watch " a professor of history at Boston University and a left-wing political activist who described himself as “something of an anarchist, something of a socialist” and “maybe a democratic socialist...He was a supporter of many so-called “New Left” causes, such as the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and the Black Panther party, and more conventional “old left” causes such as the Maoist Progressive Labor Party. 2 Zinn sympathized with the Communist Viet Cong's effort to overthrow the government of South Vietnam, and was repeatedly an opponent of the use of military force by the United States...is best known for writing A People's History of the United States, first published in 1980...Historians have challenged the book's facts and misrepresentations on numerous fronts, such as his descriptions of the involvement of African Americans in World War II, the level of spying by American communists against the United States during the Cold War, and the severity of Allied strategic bombing during World War II"-https://www.influencewatch.org/person/howard-zinn/ Inspite all this, Zinn's book is taught as history in many public schools. The result is a generation who like Zinn hate their own country and wants nothing to do with it. The question again is why would we keep encouraging parents to send children to these schools?

The American Church must come to the conclusion that we have been bamboozled by the progressives over a hundred years ago. Once we humbly acknoledge and accept this truth then we will rise up to do what we must. The Evangelical Church in America rather than stand first in its calling to disciple the nation, we instead out sources a crucial part of discipleship to the state. As a result secular humanists seized the opportunity and started to disciple this nation into secularism and hopelessness. This was a mistake then and it is a mistake now to continue to look to the state for education.

In this episode, I discuss the fact that while Christians sleep, progressive secular humanists know exactly what they are doing. Their goal is to change society and they planning on doing it through the children. Nelson Mandela is believed to have said that "Education is a powerful weapon which you can use to change the world". What a statement! This is obviously a neutral statement which means that Education is a weapon that can be used to change the world for better or worse. In other words, education is a vehicle that takes the students in the direction of the educator. Jesus said "The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher." Over a Hundred years ago Secular Progressive Humanist understood very well that if they wanted to change the world, they would have to take over education. They managed to convince Christians that it was possible to create a neutral environment where the religious and non-religious could learn together. As a result Christians forfeited their God given assignement to "go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Christians were tricked into believing that formal education and spiritual discipleship were to separate projects. But this is not true at all. Education is according to Nelson Mandela a tool, an instrument of discipleship regardless to who is doing the educating. What a great opportunity for the church. Our commission from our Lord and King is to change the world. Education can be our vehicle.

According to Prager U, the NEA is "The Biggest Bully in School" (https://youtu.be/oPAI7Oo1jFI). They obviously run like a mob as they should if they are going to protect their interests. In fact, in the video from Prager U, one of the Top Lawyers for the NEA is on record saying that "it is not because we care about children, and it not because we have a vision for a great public school for every child. NEA and its affiliates are effective advocates because we have power". And to be clear they have a lot of power. The obvious question is, power to do what? They have the power to control us and our children if we let them. They have been controlling us for decades and the time has come for this generation of Christians to say enough is enough. We are obligated to say this on behalf of our families as well as our neighbors. Future generations will look back either thankful that we took our stand or wondering why we did not.

The NEA is an arm of the progressive and increasingly radical left in American Politics. Their goal is to turn our kids into leftist activists. According to influencewatch.org, "The National Education Association (NEA) is America's largest labor union representing nearly three million employees, principally teachers. With affiliates in every state across 14,000 communities , NEA represents teachers, education support professionals, retired teachers, education faculty and staff, substitute teachers, and administrators. It exercises enormous political clout in everything from contract negotiations to issue advocacy and lobbying." In other words the NEA controls the public school system. If you want to fight for reform, you have to go through the NEA and its affiliates. Influencewatch.org also says that "The NEA is a major political player, with its associated political action committees contributing nearly $143.5 million to federal candidates and committees—97% of which supported Democrats and liberals—from 1990 through February 2019. The NEA is also deeply entangled in state and local politics and is a major contributor to left-of-center nonprofit organizations." Meaning that the NEA is an extention of the Democratic Party. At best the NEA represents half the country in regards to its politics. The NEA is pro leftist politics which means that they promote left wing propaganda in the public schools. Their vision for the next generation clearly conflicts with that of the Christian Church. We simply cannot continue to out source the education of our children to such an environment. Our only recourse is to establish alternative solutions for the church. The church must resume responsibility and each church must provide alternative options to the families in its community. This is how we take back the culture. My hope is to link hearts and minds with likeminded Christians and to contribute to an already started movement take reclaim education for the Glory of God.

This is the first part in a series of installments making the case that the time has come for the Christian Church to place the necesary attention on K-12 education. It is the church cannot contnue to out source education to a secular humanistic elites who's ultimate desire is to create a population of obedient soldiers in their planned revolution. If we want to influence the next generation, we must be willing to educate them ourselves. The secular elites pay good money to be able to influence as many kids as possible because they understand that if they mold them, they control them. It is increasingly becomeing clear that those in charge of public schools have a different agenda than that of Christian parents. It is also clear that the public school system cannot be reformed because it is doing exactly what it was intended to do. We have to mobilize and bring awareness to other Christians who still insist on sending their children to public school. The responsibility of educating children belongs to the Churches in every community, not the government.

So What exactly is Drag Story Hour and why should we even care about it. According to Dragstoryhour.org Drag Story Hour "captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models." This is right on their website for all to see. They go on to say that "In spaces like this, kids are able to see people who defy rigid gender restrictions and imagine a world where everyone can be their authentic selves." So in other words, they are targeting children specifically because children dont know better. They want to get them early so that by the time they are of age, men parading as women and simulating sexual acts in public is normal and acceptable. It is time for Christians to stand up to this madness. The bible says in Ephesians 5:11, "Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them." Please join me in exposing this madness. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/support
What is One of the Myths About Public School AKA Government Schools ? The answer to that question is also the Main Reason Why People Send their Children to Public Schools. In this episode, I am discussing one of the main reasons Christians continue to send their children to public or government school. The myth is that Government schools are value neutral ground. The lie is that secularism is a neutral worldview. The truth however is that goverment school systems have done away with the most important aspect of who we are as humans and that is the acknowldgement of God as creator and lord. The void left they are continually trying to fill it with other false gods of humanism, naturalism, scientism, etc. As a community, Christians must wake up to smell the coffee. We must stop sending our children to be educated by a system that sets itself against our worldview and our God.

In this episode I share a resource from Awakeamerica.org. This organization has put together a party platform comparison guide to help all voters but especially Christians decide who to vote for based on the values each party represents. Each party has values and commitment and they are open about them. "Consider not only the candidate but the party platform. The Republican and Democratic parties have radically different principles for which they stand. Even if your choice for a candidate is not desirable, the alternative candidate is generally much worse. Jesus Christ is not on the ballot, so in essence, we always have the choice of the lesser of two evils. Let's work with the political party that has the most biblical stand and the greatest opportunity and desire to preserve our freedoms allowing us to continue to freely propagate the Gospel."

Jesus told his disciples in John chapter 15:18-25 that "“If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours. But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty of sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father also. If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin, but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. But the word that is written in their Law must be fulfilled: ‘They hated me without a cause.'" This message obviously applied to those who follow Jesus Christ today. Those who follow Christ today must rejoice whenever they encounter opposition. Hatred from the world confirms that we are indeed on the right track. Christians should be concerned when the world starts to love them. If the world embraces us, we have compromised our witness. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/support
In this episode I share the story of a man named Steven Richards. At some point in his teenage years, Steven thought he was a women and like many teenagers these days he proceeded to go down the road of transitioning himself to become a female. Like thousands of others whose stories are rarely told in the mainstream culture/media things go from bad to worse for Steven. Thankfully Steven got back to his senses before things got even worse. "Deciding to de-transition cost me many close friends and forced me to rebuild my whole life. For some members of the movement — those who have lost ties with their family, who rely on the community for food and housing — de-transitioning isn't an option. Many of them still live in the miserable world I escaped from, hoping that the next step in their transition — a new name, a new set of pronouns, another year of hormones, another surgery — will bring them the happiness they were promised. But, as I learned, it never can."-(https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/patriotism-unity/how-i-was-trapped-by-gender-ideology) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/support
In this episode I bring to light some of the dangerous things that children are being exposed in the Government Schools across America. According to Cathy Ruse (Senior Fellow and Director of Human Dignity at Family Research Council.) in a report from a few years ago titled "SEX EDUCATION IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS: SEXUALIZATION OF CHILDREN AND LGBT INDOCTRINATION", "Year after year, sex ed programs push the limits on what is appropriate, both in terms of the material presented to students and the age at which it is presented. In many school districts today, lessons introduce sexual concepts to very young children and promote risky sexual behavior to vulnerable teens and pre-teens." She goes to say that "The LGBTQ movement demands that homosexual relationships be presented to children as good, healthy, and equal in every way to heterosexuality within man-woman marriage. Many sex ed developers and providers are all too happy to comply." In a recent article Film maker Chris Rufo said that he "obtained a trove of publicly accessible documents from Los Angeles Unified that illustrates the extent to which gender ideology has entered the mainstream of the nation's second-largest school district. Since 2020, the district's Human Relations, Diversity, and Equity department has created an infrastructure to translate the basic tenets of academic queer theory into K-12 pedagogy. The programming includes a wide range of conferences, presentations, curricula, teacher-training programs, adult-driven “gender and sexuality” clubs, and school-sponsored protests." These and many other reports should be cause for concern with regards to sending children to be educated by these institutions. This episode is a send in a series making the case for parents to consider removing their children out of Government School.

In this episode I discuss the absurdity of Christians sending their children to be educated by pagans. The truth is that for so long we have been made to believe that the secular government schools are value neutral. This has been one of the greatest lie ever perpetrated on the Christian community as well as society at large for a long time. The fact is that the secular state has its own approved values and vision for the future and it is in direct contradiction with our biblical values. The time has come for people to wake up!

In this post, I celebrate the recent landmark win for the pro-life movement due to the overturning of Roe V Wade by the Supreme Court last month. While we celebrate though, we must also have a clear plan a heard because in all honest, the war is not over. In fact, the war on life will intensify. The inspiration for this episode comes from an article by Dr Michael L Brown titled "What the Church Must Do Post Roe". Dr Brown says: "The overturning of Roe marks a massive, historic victory for the pro-life cause, and we should continue to thank God and rejoice. Yet this victory simply marks a new beginning in the battle for life, and in many ways, for the pro-life movement, our work has just begun. First, we must remain vigilant in prayer, since the same prayer that brought about the overturning of Roe is the same prayer that will advance the cause of life throughout the nation. Now is not the time to let up (although it's fine to take a brief respite to catch our corporate breath). Now is the time to be reenergized, recommitted, and redeployed."

In this episode, I discuss the findings from the Arizona Christian University's Cultural Research Center under the direction of Dr George Barna concerning "America's Most Popular Worldview" today. American Worldview Inventory 2021 Release #02 introduces "Moralistic Therapeutic Deism" as the most popular worldview in America today. Which sadly also means that many people seating in the church pews see the world through the lense of MDT. So What is it? Moralistic Therapeutic Deism (MTD) is a worldview initially identified and named by sociologists Christian Smith and Melinda Lundquist Denton. They introduced their findings and conclusions in their book, Soul Searching: The Religious and Spiritual Lives of American Teenagers, published in 2005 and which was based on national research among the teenagers of the turn of the millennium. At that time Smith and Denton identified several core beliefs that characterized the thinking and behavior of the group. Those components included: • belief in a God who remains distant from people's lives • people are supposed to be good to each other (i.e., moral) • the universal purpose of life of being happy and feeling good about oneself • there are no absolute moral truths • God allows “good people” into Heaven • God places very limited demands on people. Consistent with other worldview research, the current Cultural Research Center findings confirm that even though those perspectives developed two decades ago, during the preteen years of that generation (a group we now call Millennials), they have held on to those beliefs as they have aged. That follows the well-established worldview developmental pattern. Research conducted by George Barna, and subsequently others, over the past quarter-century has shown that a person's worldview develops when they are very young, is refined during their teens and 20s, and then serves as a decision-making foundation for the duration of a person's life. Without conscious retraining, it is unlikely that worldview will change during a person's lifetime.-(https://www.arizonachristian.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/CRC_AWVI2021_Release02_Digital_01_20210427.pdf) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message
In this episode I go through the American Worldview Inventory Release #6 from the Cultural Research Center under the direction of George Barna. "The latest report from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University shows that the meaning of “Christian” in America today is far from monolithic, with a number of diverse and oftenconflicting theological views—even beliefs that are thoroughly unbiblical perspectives—among those who embrace the label. And these differences in beliefs often lead to widely divergent views on questions of morality and politics among American Christians, depending on how closely and consistently they are aligned with basic biblical teachings." (https://www.arizonachristian.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/CRC_AWVI2021_Release06_Digital_01_20210831.pdf) According to this report, most people who call themselves Christians are at best confused and deceived. It is my belief that Church leadership needs to engage with this research in order to know how to help the people seating in their pews. I also believe that after looking at this report, the American Church must put a lot more focus on local missions through evangelism and apologetics. This is because, your neighbor who identifies as a Christian, may have never had a real encounter with the King of Glory! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message
Men play a critical role in determining whether a woman chooses to have an abortion, according to a Care Net survey released last week. “You can't be serious about ending abortion unless you are serious about engaging men on the issue,” said Roland Warren, president and CEO of Care Net, a network of Christian crisis-pregnancy centers. Care Net released the finding of a Feb. 25-March 26, 2021, survey of 1,000 American men whose spouse or partner had had an abortion. Findings show that roughly 3 out of every 4 men, or 74%, said their partner talked with them about getting the abortion before going through with it.-https://www.dailysignal.com/2022/01/31/men-play-large-role-in-womens-abortion-decision-study-finds/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message

What is the Christian worldview? Before we can answer that though, let us first consider why worldviews matter. • James Anderson in his article “On Worldviews”- Worldviews shape and inform our experiences of the world around us. Like spectacles with colored lenses, they affect what we see and how we see it. Depending on the "color" of the lenses, some things may be seen more easily, or conversely, they may be de-emphasized or distorted—indeed, some things may not be seen at all- Popular Worldview: • Naturalism: there is no God; humans are just highly evolved animals; the universe is a closed physical system. • Postmodernism: there are no objective truths and moral standards; "reality" is ultimately a human social construction • Pantheism: God is the totality of reality; thus, we are all divine by nature. • Pluralism: the different world religions represent equally valid perspectives on the ultimate reality; there are many valid paths to salvation. What is a Christian Worldview? A biblical worldview is based on the infallible Word of God. When you believe the Bible is entirely true, then you allow it to be the foundation of everything you say and do. -Focus on the family A Christian Worldview is a “comprehensive conception of the world from a Christian standpoint. An individual's worldview is his “big picture,” a harmony of all his beliefs about the world. It is his way of understanding reality. One's worldview is the basis for making daily decisions and is therefore extremely important.”-Got questions • “The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters” Psalm 24 Why should we even care about having a distinctly Christian Worldview? • “Having a Christian worldview means being utterly convinced that biblical principles are not only true but also work better in the grit and grime of the real world.”-Nancy Pearcey • Video: https://youtu.be/MbJh3Mksi10 • 'Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.' Romans 12:1-2 • 2 Corinthians 10:3-6: For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete. Application. • Learn your bible. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth-2 Timothy 2:15 • study the culture See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits[a] of the world, and not according to Christ. Colossians 2:8 • “Truth always carries with it confrontation. Truth demands confrontation; loving confrontation nevertheless. If our reflex action is always accommodation regardless of the centrality of the truth involved, there is something wrong.”-- Francis Schaeffer • “There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, Mine!”- Abraham Kuyper --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message
In this episode I will begin a serious discussion the topic of worldview. We will begin by addressing the question "What is a Worldview and Why is it Important?" To help us on this journey I used an article titled "On Worldviews" by a James N. Anderson. https://tabletalkmagazine.com/article/2014/12/worldviews/ According to Anderson "Worldviews also largely determine people's opinions on matters of ethics and politics. What a person thinks about abortion, euthanasia, same-sex relationships, environmental ethics, economic policy, public education, and so on will depend on his underlying worldview more than anything else." In the next episode in this series, I will be discussiing what a Christian Worldview is. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message
In this episode, I am discussing the appropriate responses for Christians in light of our identity as oaks of rightesousness in our communities. According to Lori Stanley Roeleveld in her article on crosswalk.com, "In Isaiah 61:3, The sense of this idea that we will be “oaks of righteousness” is that we will have a sturdy righteousness, able to withstand the tests of time, weather, hardship, and pestilence. We will endure. Our faith will remain evergreen. The roots of our righteousness, found in Jesus Christ, will be expansive, securing us against all storms and we will rise toward the light of Christ as we grow ever closer to our home with Him. The strength of this righteousness stems from the fact that it is a gift to us, it is the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Nothing we do and nothing that comes against us can tarnish or compromise the righteousness that comes from Jesus" (https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/bible-study/what-are-the-oaks-of-righteousness-described-in-isaiah-613.html) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message
The broad definition of Conversion Therapy in Canada's Bill C-4 makes it illegal for Pastor and Ministers to call people to repentance and to change their ways. According to a letter sent to Grace To You earlier this year "The Bill will amend the Criminal Code in Canada to ban conversion therapy. It will criminalize, among other things, “causing another person to undergo conversion therapy; promoting or advertising conversion therapy”. (https://www.gracechurch.org/news/posts/2307) There are similar laws being passed all over the United States and before you know our own congress will go all in making it illegal to teach what the Word of God says on the matters of sexuality.

It is no secret that for most Christians, it is uncomfortable to watch most movies and television shows nowadays. The discomfort of many of us is due to the ever-increasing portrayal of Lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender, queer, etc. with approval of the lifestyle. The message is clear, the culture has embraced homosexuality as an acceptable lifestyle and as a result Hollywood films and message has to reflect this. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/i61-exploits/message
