A Prayer for America - Aug. 6
This is the type of prayer we have prayed regularly for many years, not every part of it every day, but this is a synopsis of what we pray for our nation. It is a nation we love though we have spent half of our lives overseas altogether and have not lived there for 20 years this term. We pray for other nations, too, of course.
Effectual, biblical prayer is a most amazing thing. It is a petition to the Highest Power. It is a direct line. It doesn’t have to go through any channels. It doesn’t depend on elections or political alliances. It requires no kind of majority. No one can stop it, not by mocking, by legislation, by demonstrations, by threats, or by riots. Atheists and Communists and “woke” universities and God-hating global corporations can’t stop it... Read More

The Rapper Deathstyle - Aug. 5
A study published in the May 2003 issue of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology found that students who listen to violent music are more likely to act violently. “Across five studies, we found that violent lyrics do increase violent thinking and aggressive feelings,” said lead researcher Craig Anderson of Iowa State University.
Rap is physically aggressive music, both in its lyrics, in its sound, and in the attitude of the rappers, and it is not surprising that it produces violence. It is also so filthy that a large percentage of the lyrics cannot be quoted.

From time to time, I publish some of the goodies from my mailbox, since many people have told me that they enjoy reading these things. —
THEY LIKE THE PREACHING
“My heart was deeply refreshed by this message [‘Renouncing Jumboism,’ Sept. 26, 2019]. As I read it, I rejoiced in the plain and Biblical language with which it is written. May God bless you for your boldness for and faithfulness to the Truth, and may this word turn many back to the narrow way and strengthen those who still walk in it.”
“I just wanted to drop you a quick note thanking you for your article on ‘Jumboism’ that I received this morning. ... [In my 15 years of pastoral ministry,] I have often found myself being drawn into ‘Jumboism.’ All it has ever led to in my life is discouragement. It is so easy, especially as a younger pastor, to hear other pastors touting numbers and not be .. ReadMore

Graham Cracker Quack Diet - July 30
Sylvester Graham (1794-1851) was a pioneer in Christian quack diets. He was a Presbyterian pastor who got caught up in dietary fanaticism instead of staying with the Word of God.
From childhood, he was perpetually sick and prone to “nervous breakdowns,” which is often true of quacks and followers of quacks.
He was one of the fathers of vegetarianism in America, and together with William Alcott and William Metcalfe (another preacher), founded the American Vegetarian Society.. ReadMore

- July 28
The following is reprinted from The Stream, June 5, 2016, and it is more relevant today than ever.

MARXIST-INFLUENCED LOS ANGELES TEACHERS UNION CALLS FOR DEFUNDING THE POLICE (Friday Church News Notes, July 24, 2020, www.wayoflife.org, fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - A fundamental part of America’s destruction is the radicalization of the public schools, which have become humanistic brainwashing centers. A major factor was the introduction of Darwinianism in the first half of the 20th century. The radicalization is illustrated by the United Teachers Los Angeles, a union of 35,000 teachers and administrators. They are making the following demands before the schools can reopen: charter schools must be closed (these totalitarians don’t want to grant “minorities” a choice in education), police must be defunded, medicare-for-all and..

A New Testament Church Is a Regenerate, Faithful, Growing Church - July 22
The following is excerpted from 21 Steps to a Stronger Church for the 21st Century, available as a free eBook from www.wayoflife.org.
It is impossible to know if we have New Testament churches today, or to build New Testament churches today, if we don’t compare them with, and model them after, Scripture. The pattern is not found in the church fathers, the Waldenses, the Lollards, the Anabaptists, the Lutherans, the Anglicans, the Reformed Presbyterianism, the Geneva Calvinists, the British general Baptists or particular Baptists, the Brethren, Pentecostalism, Charismaticism, Fundamentalism, Evangelicalism, New Reformed..
