Since I posted about homosexuality, people keep commenting to me to not take the Bible so literally and that I’m missing context.
I’ll repeat what I previously said in my video on the subject: If you reject parts of the Bible, how do you know which parts to reject and which to listen to? By what and by whose standard do you judge what to keep and what to discard?
The answer, of course, is that it’s by your own personal subjective metric. You are making an idol—a god who fits your modern preferences.
That’s it. There is no other answer. All scripture is breathed out by God. Even when it’s uncomfortable or inconvenient or challenges us to grapple with it.
“This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.” 1 John 3:16
Utah Judge Tony Graf has ruled today to keep the death penalty on the table for Tyler Robinson. The defense was attempting to remove capital punishment over something one of the prosecutor's said. This petition has been denied.
Praise God. Charlie unjustly got a death sentence, and--once convicted--Robinson deserves the same.
It is so challenging to talk about faith as a Christian online because if you don’t say something in exactly the way people think it should be said, other Christians will jump on and excoriate you. It is almost never done privately and almost never with a spirit of gentleness.
There’s this underlying sense that you have to be a theological scholar before you start not teaching, not preaching, but simply sharing your faith and inviting people into discussion. And I think that’s why a lot of Christians attempt to compartmentalize their faith and keep it away from their platforms or leave it up to priests and pastors and “Christian influencers.”
It’s the work of Satan, because obviously he’d rather you stick to politics (or beauty or gaming or whatever your content is centered on) as opposed to sharing your faith. He’d rather you be cowed into shutting up because you “don’t know enough yet.”
I am not suggesting we don’t correct theological errors, but there’s a big difference between someone who’s actively teaching heresy or someone who’s new born in the faith and still in the milk of the word and in need of gentle guidance vs. a sister or brother who’s obviously in the word but maybe just didn’t word things exactly the way you would’ve worded them.
I’ve often asked why Candace doesn’t use her immense platform to share the most important thing of all—the Gospel—and I think that’s because she doesn’t know it. But I also think a lot of Christians who have encountered the Gospel are hesitant to share it because anecdotally I can say with confidence that Christians online are every bit as bad as leftists and oftentimes worse.
It’s all the work of Satan, brothers and sisters. He wants you angry and judgmental of other Christians working out their salvations, and he wants those other Christians silent.
I think it’s interesting that Ian Carroll called Baron Coleman a good and God-fearing man (a joke in and of itself)—and then Candace’s response is to say essentially “yeah his crash outs are hilarious and I steal his content.”
It’s telling to note where she always goes first and what she emphasizes. It’s not God.
It’s wild to me that some people actually believe this is going to happen. Not dissimilar to democrats who believed for so many years that THIS TIME they finally had Trump.

The Supreme Court has ruled that states can continue to receive ballots post Election Day, which seems insane and unconstitutional to me.
Huge disappointment.

There is a reason we call this demonic.

We live in a world where a man can be a woman, but a human fetus can’t be a human being.
Wild wild stuff.
