In the nineteenth century a movement began to stop federal and state money from funding the building of Roman Catholic institutions and schools. What resulted was the adoption of a version of the Blaine Amendment by 37 state constitutions, and a failed attempt to add it to the U.S. Constitution. Some argue public funds should be available to everyone. Some argue they shouldn’t be used to fund religious institutions and schools, only public schools. In his final address to... Read more

“If there is mist in the pulpit there is a fog in the pew,” Charles Spurgeon once said. Mist, according to the American Heritage Dictionary, is comprised of “a mass of fine droplets of water in the atmosphere near or in contact with the earth,” and “water vapor condensed on and clouding the appearance of a surface.” Mist causes visual impairment, whereas fog, a type of low-lying cloud, can reduce visibility altogether. Fog has caused numerous aviation, naval, and automobile-related crashes and deaths.... Read more
A new exhibit in New York City, called “Abortion is normal,” whose advocates claim, “any bodily procedure is normal,” appears to be advocating Satanic and pagan practices whose rituals included child sacrifice. One of the plastic model figures in the exhibit appears to be in the likeness of the Greek Goddess Diana or her Egyptian equivalent, Isis. On her head is a golden halo, and strapped to her back, a sword. Worshippers of both have historically sacrificed children. The hand... Read more
Leo,(July 22-August 23) the last sign in the Christian Zodiac, fulfills all of what the previous 11 signs have pointed to: Jesus, the Lion of Judah and victor over Satan: “the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed.” (Rev. 5:5) In the heavenly depiction, Leo’s tale touches Virgo’s head, the first sign in “God’s Zodiac.” The lion stands over Hydra, the long snake representing the devil, which is the largest separate constellation in the sky....

The eleventh of the twelve signs of the Christian Zodiac is Cancer (June 21 – July 22). It signifies transformation, from darkness to light, from putting off the old self and putting on the new (Eph. 4:22-24). Its modern-day symbol is a crab, but the ancient Egyptian symbol was a Scarabceus, a sacred beetle. By way of illustration, the crab periodically sheds its shell and puts on a new one, which changes the form and shape of its body. So too,... Read more
Gemini, May 21-June 20, is the second in the last section of the zodiac, telling the story of Jesus, the reigning redeemer and bridge groom to the church in the series, The Original Christian Zodiac. Marked by a constellation of two bright stars, named, Castor and Pollux, they have been depicted by secularists as twins representing the sons of the Greek mythological god, Jupiter: Apollo and Hercules. The two figures–lovingly holding each other–are also holding a club, harp, and bow and arrow.... Read more
SBC President JD Greear still stands by a November 18 podcast episode in which he discusses how Christians should use gender pronouns. In it, he claims there is a “spectrum of ‘generosity of spirit’ versus telling the truth.” When it comes to which one he chooses, he says he leans towards, “generosity of spirit.” “Christians disagree—hopefully charitably—about pronoun usage,” he says. “Some think that as a personal courtesy, you should refer to a transgender person by their preferred pronoun. … Others...

Actor Stephen Baldwin shared his Christian faith in an interview with Faithwire on Facebook Live and shared what the Bible says about abortion. He said, “The Bible’s very clear. The Word never changes. You can’t be pro-choice and call yourself a follower of Jesus Christ. Doesn’t go together. Just doesn’t go together. It’s a fact. It’s a simple common sense fact. So, anybody who hears me say that and goes, ‘Well, hey, I’m a this type of Christian or this... Read more
