Many churches talk about abortion without covering the full problem. Several generations of Americans have grown up hearing only that pregnancy can be stopped before birth without any consequences.American girls have heard their whole life that abortion is not wrong, it is their choice, and that nobody is harmed by an abortion. In fact, often they are told it is their RIGHT and it can only help them and their families until they are truly ready to have a child.I am sure that millions of young girls have had an abortion and truly believed what the media, politicians, school teachers, and the world tells them. They cannot psychologically ever admit that they were lied to or they would be admitting that they murdered the most innocent of human lives, a small child. Most humans can never face such a reality. This is why they fight so hard for abortions for all, my body my choice, and why they hate any pro life person like Charlie Kirk or Christians, or anyone else. It is much easier to hate "someone who is trying to take away my rights" then to admit that you brutally tortured and killed a child.Let's talk about What the Bible says about someone who truly did not intend to kill someone.#cityofRefuge #murder #abortion #pro-life #pro-choice #mybodymychoice

A reading of Proverbs 13-15 in the King James Version.Wisdom comes from God. If a verse stands out to you in some way, stop listening and look up that verse. Read it several times and pray that God will give you wisdom to understand it. Then think about it and read it several times throughout the day.If you know Jesus Christ, His Holy Spirit will give you wisdom about that verse, far greater than what I can teach you. Read the Bible. Read the Bible. Read the Bible!Happy New Year! Instead of a typical resolution why don't you pick a book of the Bible this year to learn about?#Proverbs #wisdom #GodlyWisdom #BibleReading #NewYearsResolution #HappyNewYear

Regardless of your thoughts over what the USA did to Venezuela on January 3rd, 2026; the real question is, "What does the Bible say?"There are good and bad governments. There are good and bad people/presidents. There are good and bad forms of government. A short review of history makes it clear that socialism, marxism, and communism, ALWAYS lead to murder and starvation of massive numbers of people.Nobody can deny that dictators/presidents that run over citizens with tanks are worse than Presidents that try to do what is best for his own citizens.Regardless of your political persuasion or feelings, let's take a step back and look at what the Bible actually says about things like this.Listen now and please leave your comments.#PresidentTrump #Maduro #Venezuela #Capitalism #socialism #GoodvsEvil

This episode is the Introduction to the Get Wisdom Series. This goes over the difference between Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge. In order to exercise wisdom, one has to have a discernment and understanding of what to do with the knowledge that you have. So the first lesson to be learned is how to get knowledge.All Truth is God's Truth, meaning all things that are truth to include the natural (science, facts, logic, the physical things of this world) and the supernatural (theology, angels, and God) stem from God and are defined by God. God created everything with a specific order and the laws of nature and physics that simply cannot be ignored.In addition to these natural laws, God has moral, ethical, and supernatural laws that cannot be ignored or changed as well.Proverbs 1:7 - The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledgeThis tells me that we need to start at the beginning of the things God wants us to know, the book of Genesis...#Theology #knowledge #Truth #Wisdom #understanding #creation #science

How do we process the anger and grief? How do we handle evil when it is actually happening?What does the Bible say to do when someone pulls a knife and attacks you? What is a valid response?

You CAN mentally prepare yourself for battle. You CAN physically fight. In fact, the Bible advocates for you to do so.Let me explain....#fightfightfight #2A #2ndAmendment #God'sHeart #manofwar #September11 #911 #terrorism

From the 12 spies who brought back great clusters of grapes that took 2 men to hold them, to the 40 years of wilderness wandering; God loved His chosen people. He blessed them and punished them, did miracles for them, and let them suffer for their mistakes.The one miracle that I find fascinating is the one of the bronze serpent on the staff. It symbolized healing until II Kings 18 when the people began to worship the serpent. I believe that hundreds of years later, this relic of Jewish history was carried by merchants around the world until it was taken up by the Greeks and the story twisted.Nevertheless, Jesus acknowledged this miracle and that it actually pointed to Him.Listen to this episode to find out how.#miracles #bronzeSerpent #moses #ThecrossofJesus #Israel #medicine

Pansexual, Transexual, Lesbian, Homosexual, Gay, Bisexual, Asexual, Heterosexual, and how many other sexualities are there? Must we acknowledge all genders, all sexual orientations, all identities?Let's discuss what the Bible actually says about homosexuality (which really addresses almost all of the above choices). There is no ambiguity in scripture when it comes to sin. Everybody sins. Some people just like to flaunt theirs, it doesn't make them any better or worse than you or I.#sexuality #gaypride #lesbian #homosexuality #transgender #genderdysphoria #marriage #menandwomen

The 10 commandments and the Golden calf.

Moses saw God, or at least his back as he was walking away, and Moses' face shined so bright that people couldn't be around him and he had to wear a veil. I can see why the Bible says that:Revelation 21: 23"And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof."This episode gets into the sacrificial system that God instituted for the Israelites and why it was so important. The miracle here is the almighty God of the Universe putting into writing a permanent record of all that He requires for you to be right with Him and be able to spend eternity with Him.Listen to this to understand the awesome miracle and prophecy that is wrapped up in this!#Sacrifice #LambofGod #forgiveness #Moses #Jews #Israel #Zion
