Best thing that could happen to Churches would be to lose the 501(c)3 tax-exempt status

Thats what Pastor Ken Hutcherson of the Antioch Bible Church believes.
From OneNewsNow: ‘Evan-jellyfish with no spiritual vertebrae’
An outspoken pastor and pro-family activist is speaking out about Evangelical leaders he says have no spiritual backbone.

The Insincerity of John Hagee

Do I believe this apology is sincere? Not for a second.  This only proves how politically motivated Hagee has become. After years of referring to the RCC as ‘the whore of Babylon’ he’s now changed his tune. Why?  Not because he had some revelation which showed him he was wrong, but because his stance [...]

An Evangelical Manifesto: Clarifying the ‘Evangelical’ label?

Global, Global, Global, seems to be the key word in this document released today, along with a Political tone. The very title: An Evangelical Manifesto -  The Washington Declaration of Evangelical Identity and Public Commitment, is political.

HWJV?  It was only a matter of time–”How Would Jesus Vote?”  The HWJV team is touring, they are willing to come to your church, and they want money.  My guess is that Jesus’ first vote would be to eliminate the HWJV [...]

U.S. Churches Push for Two-State Israel-Palestine Solution

Here in the US we have one group of Churches pushing against a two State solution and another pushing ‘for’…You’d think at some point both groups would step back and allow God to be God and pray His will be done. Our involvement as Christians should be concentrated on Believers on both sides who are [...]

McCain Believes Using Faith for Election is Wrong
