Netflix used to be pretty good, but lately I can’t find anything decent there to watch. Paramount has better content.

Anti-Zionism - the opposition to the Jewish people’s right to self-determination in their ancestral and indigenous homeland - is a form of antisemitism, plain and simple.

Good stuff from Samuel Logan Brengle (1860-1936), Methodist who joined Salvation Army after hearing William Booth at an open-air service. (1/2)

I like and use several good Bible translations, but I daresay the New American Standard Bible (NASB) 2020 edition is as good as you will find. Especially if it’s an edition with the full set of translation footnotes. Wow.

I know some of you prefer the 1995 edition, and it’s solid too, but IMO, the 2020 is better because the English is smoother and more natural. And I believe the 2020 edition handles gender accurately without overreaching.

He was entirely sanctified at Boston Common while a seminary student at Boston University. That’s where he was first exposed to holiness teaching. (Imagine that!) (2/2)

What a dumb story. This is but one example of why many don’t trust the media. They take the fun out of everything. Even fireworks.

People in and around Washington, D.C., are experiencing a substantial dip in air quality on Sunday. Researchers connected the shift in pollution levels to massive fireworks displays held to celebrate July 4th on Saturday night. cbsn.ws/4vOW9sv

Air quality in and around D.C. improves after July 4th fireworks brought "very unhealthy" pollution...

A "purple" air quality alert was issued for Washington, D.C., and surrounding areas, on Sunday, meaning pollution reached levels considered "very unhealthy."

Regeneration subjugates inner sin but it doesn’t eradicate it. It doesn’t take a new Christian convert very long to figure that out!

I said this before the Asbury delisting by the UMC, and it still applies: if you’re an evangelical, orthodox United Methodist clergyperson, layperson, or congregation, now’s the time to seriously consider making your way to the exit. It’s only going to go downhill from here.

Mark hits the nail on the head. It’s not only the orthodoxy the UMC couldn’t abide, it’s the competition.

United Methodism has delisted evangelical Asbury Seminary, but as denominationalism declines, the decision no longer matters very much. juicyecumenism.com/2026/06/2… via @theird

United Methodism vs Asbury Seminary

United Methodists remove America's eighth-largest seminary from their list of approved schools for those seeking ordination.

The UMC accelerates as it continues its descent into the abyss of oblivion.
Gregory W. Mathis@GMathis89Jun 24
I am not 100% certain (I am an outsider). But I *think* this means it’s now impossible for someone training in the United Methodist Church to receive an education in its own historical Wesleyan tradition. Wild.

Good stuff from Dr. Kenneth Collins at Asbury. “Actual sins, though they are many, can all be forgiven. Inbred sin, however, cannot be forgiven. It must die.”

This is from an account of a love feast at North Russell Street Methodist Episcopal Church in Boston in 1839. Entire sanctification was not considered a doctrinal relic or something that was out of reach for ordinary Christians … it was widely pursued and expected.
