Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said “an economic system that allows billionaires to exist is immoral.”
Someone may want to let the former bartender turned Congresswoman know that the top 1% of wage earners pay nearly 50% of all federal taxes.
The top 10% of wage earners pay nearly 70% of all federal taxes.
The top 20% of wage earners pay about 85% of all federal taxes. That money funds things like our national welfare programs.
Don’t let them entice you to harbor disdain for the wealthy. Socialists bank on covetousness to gain support for their regressive policies.

According to the most recent reports provided by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), researchers looked at fertility rates for women of all age groups and ethnicities and found the nationwide rate was 16% lower than what is needed for a population to replace itself.
There has been much discussion about the demographic winter in various European countries. Well, that demographic winter has reached the United States.
The first command God gave mankind in scripture was “be fruitful.” But, man has the penchant to fancy his own ways over God’s.
Rejecting God’s ways always carries severe consequences.

According to the World Health Organization, abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide in 2018. As of December 31, 2018, 41.9 million babies were murdered in the womb last year.
That is more than the 8.2 million people who died from cancer in 2018, more than the 5 million who died from smoking, and more than the 1.7 million who died from HIV/Aids in 2018 globally COMBINED!!!
Thomas Jefferson once said, “I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.”
LORD, please strengthen us to abolish this wickedness!

According to a recent study published by the Christian Post, 76.3 percent of all abortions are obtained by "God-fearing women."
With 68.7 percent who identify themselves as Christian women, and 18 percent of all abortions obtained by self-discribed
born-again or evangelical women.
A corresponding Care Net study found that many women with unplanned pregnancies go silently from the church pew to the
abortion clinic, convinced the church would gossip rather than help.
America's greatest need is repentance.

Full weaponization of the federal government to crush a political opponent, politicians and a political party that bill themselves as pro-life while refusing to actually do what’s in their power to stop the killing of little babies, the successful and unrelenting advance of Regressivism…
All of these are signs that our national condition is not merely a natural phenomenon. It is spiritual.
Civic engagement without spiritual engagement produces political roller coasters. National course correction will only come by national repentance. We must elevate Him.

When their mom passed the Landau brothers of NJ had a garage sale to clear out their mom’s house, but they decided to keep a few things including mom’s old creepy painting of a woman passed out in a chair and two men trying to revive her.
Fast forward to their estate auction and the brothers found themselves fielding bids from France and Germany for the painting.
Turns out it was a long lost Rembrandt that ultimately sold for $1.1 million.

It's not by chance that Jesus refers to his Church as “The Body.” Just as it is with our physical bodies every member has a distinct role and function to fulfill.
Unfortunately, in the era of celebrity Christianity we’ve reduced the concept of ministry solely to what occurs in what is often little more than Sunday productions and performances.
The key to thriving in God’s Kingdom is understanding that every member in The Body of Christ is vital called to ministry.
They said to each other, "Did not our hearts burn within us while He talked with us on the road, while He opened to us the Scriptures?"

These words were shared between Cleopas and his companion on the seven mile walk from Jerusalem to Emmaus as Jesus, in resurrected form, used the Hebrew scriptures to reveal himself to them as the Messiah.
There are at least 109 distinct biblical prophecies the Messiah has to fulfill. The mathematical probability of such a feat occurring is astoundingly absurd. Yet that absurdity is satisfied in Jesus the Messiah.
Come let us adore Him.

After initially filing a court document in the Hunter v. U.S. Department of Education case promising to “vigorously” defend religious freedom for more than 20 Christian Colleges and Universities, the very next day the Biden Department of Justice amended the filing to downplay its willingness to fight for these schools’ first amendment freedoms.
After being pressured by advocates for the LGBTQIA+ socio-political agenda, the Biden administration back pedaled in just one day.
The Biden administration represents abject and overt hostility to religious freedom.
“Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them.” Matthew 19:5 (NASB).

Earlier this year El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele stated unequivocally that U.S. policy incentivizes illegal immigration. That it is immoral and detrimental to the U.S., his country, and to Central and South America.
Then, just before Kamala Harris was scheduled to visit Guatemala during her first international diplomatic travel as Vice-President, Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei blasted the Biden administration policies as enablers of human trafficking and smuggling.
President Giammettei said, the message changed to “reunited families… and reunite children. The very next day the coyotes were here organizing groups of children to take them to the United States.”

Texas Christian University is changing the way it categorizes first-year students.
Kathy Cavins-Tull, Vice-Chancellor for Student affairs said its vernacular change “is a reflection of [their] university-wide commitment to inclusive excellence.”
What’’s the change? The university us dropping the term “freshmen” and will now call incoming undergraduates “first-year students.”
That’s right. Texas Christian University has bowed the knee to the sexual deviancy political agenda pressed upon modern American culture.
Parents, take note.

U.S. support for legal same-sex marriage continues to trend upward, now at 70%—a new high in Gallup’s trend tracking since 1996.
Republicans, who’ve constantly been the party least in favor of same-sex marriage, show majority support in 2021 for the first time with 55%.
The latest increase in support among all Americans is driven largely by changes in Republican views according to Gallup.
GOP Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel’s June 2nd tweet celebrating so-called Pride Month seems to reflect this change.
Biblical fidelity must not be subjugated to political popularity.

Xi Van Fleet, a Virginia mom who survived Mao Zedong’s Cultural Revolution before immigrating to the U.S., warned the Loudon County School Board and all of America.
She said,
To me, and a lot of Chinese, it is heartbreaking that we escaped communism and now we experience communism here… The Communist regime used the same critical race theory to divide people. The only difference is they used class instead of race.
Make no mistake. What we are experiencing now is the application of cultural Marxism to our American context.

After spending more than a year mocking, ridiculing, and excoriating anyone who suggested the Wuhan-flu just may have leaked from a lab, ABC’s Jonathan Karl is finally admitting that he and other journalists have “egg on their faces.”
They refused do their job, you know journalism, solely because they didn’t like former President Trump.
Karl said, “some things may be true even if Donald Trump said them.”
You would’ve known that Johnny-boy if you had a shred of integrity and commitment to following the facts wherever they lead. Instead of being a regressive political activist posing as a reporter.

Parents of first-grade children at the exclusive new York City Dalton School, a private school, were enraged when they discovered their children were shown a “sex ed” cartoon that encouraged children to “touch themselves” for pleasure.
The video was created by digital media platform Amaze.
Did I mention that this was shown to first graders? And, the parents didn’t learn about until after their children had already seen it!
There is an all out assault on our culture to sexualize our children.
Do you know what your children are being taught?

After spending more than a year denying the possibility that the Coronavirus was manufactured instead of naturally occurring, Dr. Anthony Fauci has changed his tune. He’s now no “longer confident” the virus “developed naturally” and has even joined the ranks of those calling for an investigation in what actually happened in China.
This, shortly after being exposed for funding “gain of function” research in China, which manipulates animal viruses to make them deadly for humans, and now we have emails that reveal “the Boy from Brooklyn” has been running game on the American people the whole time.
Fauci is a fraud!

Major League Baseball was slapped with a $1.1 billion lawsuit for pulling the 2021 all-star game out of Atlanta.
The Job Creators Network, an organization that advocates for small businesses, filed the lawsuit arguing the MLB’s decision cost Georgia businesses $100 million in lost revenue and is seeking $1 billion in punitive damages.
MLB bought into the false narrative about GA’s voter integrity law, that replaced signature verification with a photo ID requirement while MLB itself requires IDs at will call ticket windows at its ballparks all across the country.
The Job Creators Network is saying enough!

June 2nd, 5:09 p.m., GOP Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel tweeted,
Happy Pride Month! The GOP is proud to have doubled our LGBTQ support over the last four years, and we will continue to grow our big tent by supporting measures that promote fairness and balance protections for LGBTQ Americans and those with deeply-held religious beliefs.
Why is the chairwoman of the Republican Party so excitedly willing to compromise biblical truth? Someone should let Jack Philipps, Aaron and Melissa Klein, Barronelle Stutzman, and more know that regressives are now willing to compromise… because Auntie Ronna says so.

40 days of twice daily taunting from Goliath sent Saul and the Israelite army reeling in fear. But David’s passion for YHWH, conviction, and full persuasion stirred King Saul.
When people are on fire for God it often provokes others to glob on to that fire.
But we must be careful to resist the well-meaning overtures of the flame-less by-standers.
Saul meant well, but his armor couldn’t help. It would only slow David down.
"Salt [is] good: but if the salt has lost its savour, how will it be seasoned?” Luke 14:34 (NKJV).
Matt Walsh wrote a piece for the Daily Wire where he said,
The contemporary American Christian is the most open-minded person to have ever existed. He’s so open minded you can hardly tell he’s Christian, or has a mind at all…
He has for a long time been open to the idea that marriage isn’t permanent and sex isn’t meant exclusively for marriage. He’s basically open to whatever notions are popular…
He is open, and where he is not open, he is silent.
