Would a Trump Victory Hold Back the Romans 1 Tidal Wave? Part 2

Send us a textGUEST: STEVE MILLER, author, One Day NearerI recently watched a program on Fox News Channel that featured some of the sharpest conservative minds, including Thomas Sowell, Victor Davis Hanson, and Mark Levin. They were discussing the crumbling state of affairs in America and abroad with regard to overwhelming illegal immigration across our border, a takeover of the government school system by a Marxist worldview, crushing economic policies and inflation, political corruption, widespread anti-Israel sentiment, and several more.They detailed the problems accurately but I was left wondering what these intelligent men believe is going to happen in the future. Do they think with a different president that we’ll pull out of this death spiral? Do they think that America is too big to fail and that the pendulum will swing back the conservative way at some point? Do they know and believe what God has prophesied in the Bible about the end times?Only the born again Christian who is indwelled by the Holy Spirit and accurately interprets Scripture is able to understand what is coming. While God has chosen to not reveal every detail and precise timing of the future, He has put enough in Scripture that we should know what’s coming, most especially, the return of Jesus Christ to defeat His enemies and reign.With each passing sunset, we are “one day nearer” to the return of Christ. And that is the best news! Why would the believer want to struggle on in this world—with sin, conflict, persecution, disease, and death—when we can live for eternity in perfection in the presence of Christ?Steve Miller is our guest this weekend and next. He has studied Biblical prophecy for decades and is the author of Foreshadows: 12 Megaclues Jesus’ Return is Nearer than Ever and the 365-day devotional book that we will be discussing today, One Day Nearer: Daily Devotions in Anticipation of Jesus’ Glorious Return. One Day Nearer is our new featured resource available for a donation of any amount.This week he will explain the purposes of Bible prophecy, the three major views (i.e. premillennialism, amillennialism, and post-millennialism),  and whether the idea of a “rapture” of church-age believers is a recent invention.

Send us a textThis weekend’s program was produced in 2022 and was prepared to focus our attention on the Christ of Christmas. In the left column are resources and ideas for you to use personally with your own families.  The Christian Worldview wishes all of you a memorable and meaningful Christmas.  To God be all Glory!Christmas is upon us. While it’s easy to get distracted by all that competes for our attention—current events and politics, work and school, sports and recreation, travel and material things, even family and church—there is really only one most important issue and that is the person of Jesus Christ and what He has done for mankind.Jesus said, “He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him” (John 3:36).That couldn’t be more clear. Where you spend eternity hinges on whether you place your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.Christmas is the time when Christians remember and celebrate God sending His Son into our world, born of a virgin woman, mighty and holy in word and deed, and loving and sacrificial in offering His perfect life to satisfy God’s wrath and justice for our sins.Today will be a program to think about not Christmas generally, but the Christ of Christmas specifically. We will read God’s word, listen to some music, even do a Christmas quiz, all to appreciate and worship the God/Man, the Lord Jesus Christ. For none of us would have any hope without His “One Solitary Life”.-----------------------------CHRISTMAS RESOURCES for you and your family:QUIZ/POEMS/READINGS:Christmas QuizHistory behind I Heard the Bells on Christmas DayOne Solitary LifeOn Going Home for ChristmasVIDEO:The Gospel | Paul WasherTreasures of the Snow filmThe Legend of the Candy CaneTruce in the Forest short filmHans Brinker film AmazonMUSIC:O Holy Night | Phil WebbThe Messiah | Robert ShawTCW Christmas Music (Spotify)

Send us a textGUESTS:ABRAHAM HAMILTON, General Counsel and Public Policy Analyst, American Family AssociationSOEREN KERN, Managing Editor, The Christian Worldview JournalTheoretical physicist Albert Einstein is quoted as saying, “The earth is the insane asylum of the universe.” A more Biblical assertion would be: “The earth is the sin asylum of the universe.”For that is the common denominator between two seemingly unrelated issues that we will discuss this weekend on The Christian Worldview.The first is a recent case before the United States Supreme Court as to whether the state of Tennessee is within Constitutional rights to ban what is euphemistically referred to as “gender affirming care” for children. That “health care” includes administering powerful drugs and hormones to minors that alter sexual development and irreversible surgeries to remove reproductive body parts.Abraham Hamilton, General Counsel and Public Policy Analyst for American Family Association and the host of The Hamilton Corner radio program will join us to discuss that.While we in America debate the illogical and impossibility of changing one’s sex, people in Syria are concerned about the basics of life after an Islamist militant group just ousted long-time dictator Bashar al-Assad.What does this mean for the broader Middle East and specifically for neighboring Israel? Soeren Kern, geopolitical analyst and managing editor of The Christian Worldview Journal will join us in the second half of the program.-------------------------------The Christian Worldview Journal is our NEW monthly print publication. Each issue will feature articles by Soeren Kern, David Wheaton and other featured contributors and will address important topics relating to geopolitical news, US events and matters of faith in addition to highlights and products from The Christian Worldview.Sign-up for the first three issues for FREE!  To ensure that you continue to receive the Journal monthly after March 1, sign-up to become a Worldview Partner.

Send us a textBlood is a recurring theme in Scripture. In Genesis 4, God confronted Cain after he had murdered his brother Abel, saying: The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to Me from the ground (Gen. 4:10).The sacrificial system God established for the Jews to temporarily cover their sin involved countless animals being slaughtered and their blood applied to the altar and mercy seat.Ephesians 1:7 says, In Him we have redemption through His blood, the fogginess of our trespasses.Even in a physical sense the Bible says, For the life of the flesh is in the blood (Leviticus 17:11).Clearly, God created and designed blood to be highly important physically and spiritually.This weekend on The Christian Worldview, we will discuss my recent problem with blood flow in my heart. We will also hear from the author of a children’s book titled 100% Jesus, that does a really good job explaining the gospel and how the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7). We think the book will be a helpful tool in your Bible reading time with your children, along with daily conversations and going to church, that will help young ones understand and believe in Christ.And finally in the third segment, we’ll discuss the significance of President Biden’s pardon of his son Hunter along with previewing first issue The Christian Worldview Journal coming to your mailbox soon.--------------------------100% Jesus by Jason Hammerberg - available for a donation of any amount to The Christian Worldview

Send us a text** This is a rebroadcast of our 11/27/21 program.GUEST: DR. JERRY NEWCOMBE, producer, The Pilgrims documentaryA small group of biblical Christians known as the the Pilgrims are widely considered to be “the founders of America”.Numbering only about 400-500 souls, they had fled religious persecution in England to settle in Holland. But after ten years there, they decided on another move across the Atlantic Ocean to an unknown land that would become the United States.About 50 Pilgrims were on the first vessel called The Mayflower, arriving in modern-day Cape Cod in Massachusetts in November 1620. One year later in November 1621, after a brutal winter in which many of them died, they celebrated a bountiful harvest with local Indians who had helped them in what has become known as the first Thanksgiving.The Pilgrims and their biblical beliefs which led directly to the principles of the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution 150 years have been mostly forgotten by the majority of our population. “Separation of church and state” is a sacrament of mainstream society today…but it wasn’t to the Pilgrims. They said they came to America “for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith.”Dr. Jerry Newcombe, producer of the documentary film, The Pilgrims, joins us this Thanksgiving weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss the Pilgrims’ story and what they believed and lived by. For in them we have an example for how we can live in our pilgrimage in a contrary world.--------------------------Thanksgiving Special:THE PILGRIMS DVDAvailable for a limited time for a donation of any amount.The Pilgrims DVD celebrates the journey of a small group of outcasts in their quest for religious freedom. Unlike revisionist history, you will discover the true story of the men and women who came to these shores “for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith.”57 mins, DVD.  Also available for streaming from Coral Ridge Ministries.

Send us a textGUEST: MEGAN BASHAM, author, Shepherds for SaleJesus warned, “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits.” (Matthew 7:15-16).False teachers don’t wear red suits and carry pitchforks. That would be too obvious. Far more effective for undermining the church, diverting believers, and hiding the gospel from unbelievers is for false teachers to hold respected positions at churches and Christian organizations and to be captivating speakers and writers.What’s really effective is when they gain popularity while appearing to hold orthodox positions only to shift over time away from orthodoxy, leading their followers away.False teachers are nothing new. The Old Testament recounts the false prophets who led Israel into compromise and sin. The New Testament describes the constant battles of Christ and the apostles to “Retain the standard of sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. Guard, through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us, the treasure which has been entrusted to you.” (2 Tim. 1:13).From the very beginning, Satan relentlessly attacks the truth of God’s Word and he uses men and women to do it. Men and women who likely would never consider themselves to be false teachers but are nonetheless. “You will know them by their fruits”, meaning misinterpreting Scripture and practicing sin.Our guest this weekend is Christian reporter, Megan Basham. She is the author of a well-researched, well-documented, and illuminating new book, Shepherds for Sale—How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda.She describes how those on the political left are insidiously working to draw Evangelicals, the last remaining bulwark standing in the way of their socialist, Marxist vision, over to the Democrat side by giving large sums of money and reframing issues like climate change, race, immigration, pro-life, and homosexuality in language that appeals to Christians.None other than John MacArthur has written about Megan’s book, Shepherds for Sale: “This may just be the single most important book on modern evangelicalism in recent years.”The question is: Will Evangelicals listen and make amends? Because the courage and Biblical model to exercise discernment, contend for sound doctrine, and name the names of those leading Christians astray has been sinfully lacking and shamed out of Christians to avoid being pegged as “divisive” and “unkind”.We have the book in our online store and we highly encourage you to get informed and give a copy to your own shepherd pastor.

Send us a textGUEST: Robert Knight, columnist, The Washington TimesLast week in our program before the election we started by reading Psalm 103:19: “The Lord has established His throne in the heavens and His sovereignty rules over all.”We said that God’s supreme power and authority is what Christians need to be trusting in now and always, for He controls the past, present, and future, moving people to accomplish His purposes.On November 5, millions of voters in our nation were moved to elect Republican Donald Trump to a second term as president in a landslide victory over Democrat Kamala Harris. There’s no other way to interpret the results than a sizable majority of the American people rejected the Marxist worldview of Harris and Democrats who seek to overturn traditional American values based on Christianity.Democrats are very clear that they want the “freedom” to abort babies throughout all nine months of pregnancy. They brought millions of illegal immigrants across our borders to make them into a permanent voting bloc dependent on government. They want to “transition” boys into girls and girls into boys even in the face of parental objection. They even want self-identifying boys to enter girls’ locker room and compete in girls’ sports. They want to tax and spend massively on social programs, despite costs and debt rising, so more people are dependent on and thus will vote for them. They want to shut down dissenting speech as “hate speech” and “inciting violence” and a “threat to democracy”. These are examples of Marxism, the toppling of Christian values and more in favor of big government secularism.Robert Knight, columnist for The Washington Times, joined us last week to preview the election and he will join us this weekend to analyze various elements of this stunning victory by Trump.--------------------------------------------RELATED RESOURCE:In-depth report by Revolver.news on the Jan 6, 2021 U.S. Capitol riot

Send us a textGUEST: TRAVIS ALLEN, pastor, Grace Church“The Lord has established His throne in the heavens and His sovereignty rules over all” (Psalm 103:19).God’s supreme power and authority is what Christians need to be trusting in now and always, for He controls the past, present, and future, moving people to accomplish His purposes.On November 5, the people of our nation will be moved to elect a presidential leader and other representatives whose policies on the economy, energy, education, national borders, crime and justice, marriage, morality, pre-born life, Israel and a host of other issues will impact everyone’s lives.No one, except God Himself, knows what’s ahead.Pastor Travis Allen of Grace Church in Greeley, CO joins us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss various aspects of this election, culminating with how Christians can be at peace no matter what occurs.Later in the program, Washington Times columnist Robert Knight will tell us some key things to watch for.

Send us a textGUEST: JOEL BEEKE, Heritage Reformed CongregationLast week on the program, guest Mike Gendron joined us to discuss the topic, Remembering the Reformation and the War Against It Today. Mike explained why the Reformation was necessary (because the Roman Catholic Church had so departed from the faith and doctrines of the first century church) and what the Reformation accomplished, including the Word of God recovered as supreme authority, Christ as head of His church, and all-important doctrines such as justification by God’s grace alone through faith alone apart from human merit.This week, as we approach the anniversary of Reformation Day, October 31, 1517, the date when German monk Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses on the church door in Wittenberg, Germany to protest the errant doctrines and abuses of the dominant Roman Catholic Church and which ignited a 130-year period of “reform” that forever altered the Christian faith and the Western Civilization, we will continue our focus on the Reformation by discussing “How the Church Needs Reformation Today”Joel Beeke, pastor of Heritage Reformed Congregation (Grand Rapids, MI), founder of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, and chairman of Reformation Heritage Books, will join us to explain how the church and Christians individually should apply truths recovered in the Reformation to preaching and living.We will also be offering a book edited by Joel Beeke titled The Beauty and Glory of the Reformation, which will better acquaint you with the men and women of the Reformation and how they believed and lived out the 5 Solas—Scripture alone, grace alone, Christ alone, faith alone, all for the glory of God alone.----------------------The Beauty and Glory of the Reformation by Joel BeekeThis 208-page hardcover book will call you to be grateful to God and to grow in appreciation for the rich biblical, doctrinal, experiential, and practical heritage passed on by the great sixteenth-century Reformation.Worldview Partners will automatically receive a copy of this book or you can purchase it for $20 [retail $25].Become a Worldview Partner for a monthly gift of $25 or more and automatically receive resources like this 4-6 times per year.
