The system censors truth. The algorithm replaces conviction with convenience. Some of us still think, pray, and post. Analyzing illusions. Watching the watchers.

@calvarychapelcm How do you reconcile women in pastoral authority over men with 1 Timothy 2:12–14? Stand firmly on Scripture. If you’re abandoning that foundation, reconsider carrying the Calvary Chapel name. John MacArthur: youtube.com/shorts/5BRsd-El7…

Replying to @calvarychapelcm
@calvarychapelcm, explain how ordaining women as pastors squares with 1 Timothy 2:12 and 3:1–7. I believe this departs from biblical qualifications for church leadership. A church’s convictions must be governed by Scripture, regardless of cultural pressure.
Major news out of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, the influential 9500-member Calvary Chapel church (CC) founded by Chuck Smith. Pastor Char Broderson, grandson of Chuck Smith, announced on Sunday their intent to begin ordaining women pastors, in direct opposition to CC's distinctives. A statement from the Calvary Chapel Association Heartland Regional Team describes these actions as "deeply grievous" and a departure from "from important convictions Pastor Chuck faithfully taught and modeled." "As a regional team, we have serious concerns about the direction Costa Mesa has taken...Although disagreement over these doctrines does not, in itself, determine a person’s salvation, these are consequential matters of biblical interpretation, church order, and pastoral faithfulness. We do NOT affirm the ordination of women as elders or pastors as biblically sound or consistent with the Calvary Chapel distinctives upheld by the Calvary Chapel Association."

@CAgovernor, start by applying that same scrutiny to your own administration. Protect lawful voters, cooperate with legitimate investigations, and demand accountability from your own party. Public office doesn’t exempt anyone from self-examination. Matthew 7:3–5.
Let me be clear to anyone thinking about helping Trump interfere with California elections: If you interfere with voters or tamper with ballots, you will be prosecuted with a FELONY. And don't count on a pardon from the President. He can't pardon you out of California justice.

Replying to @NBCNews
@NBCNews, this reads like a propaganda machine, not journalism. You highlight their politics but leave out that no ballots were cast. Explain the charges and investigate the alleged security gaps. Give readers the full picture. Honest scales matter. Proverbs 11:1.

No ballots were cast, according to the reporting. That doesn’t automatically invalidate the charges, but it matters. Explain what law was allegedly broken and examine the claimed security gaps. Hear the evidence before judging. Proverbs 18:17.

Replying to @ABC
@ABC calls them “right-wing provocateurs” before explaining the facts. Your own report says no ballots were cast. Explain the charges and examine the alleged security gaps. Let readers judge without loaded labels. Scripture calls for impartial justice. Leviticus 19:15.

How about accountability for those committing violence @ABC @EmmanuelMacron? Hearing grievances does not excuse rioting. Romans 13:3–4 gives authorities a duty to restrain wrongdoing and protect peaceful protesters and the public. Justice requires both compassion and firmness.
French President Emmanuel Macron said protesters' demands would be addressed as demonstrators continued to clash with police in cities across France and Europe. abcnews.visitlink.me/xN9aqF

There is nothing Christian about white supremacy. Every person bears God’s image (Genesis 1:27). KKK robes and racial slurs celebrate hatred, not harmless fun. “Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar.” —1 John 4:20
🔥🚨DEVELOPING: A group of what are reportedly teenagers showed up to an El Paso Halloween party dressed in full Ku Klux Klan robes and then marched down a neighborhood street allegedly shouting racial slurs, and Rep. Veronica Escobar is calling it 'deeply disturbing and unacceptable.' Rep. Veronica Escobar: "The KKK represents a shameful history of white supremacy, racial terror, and violence against Black Americans… Treating that history as a costume is not a joke.”

Calling this “the will of God” is a disgrace. Jesus said the TWO become one flesh (Matthew 19:5–6), and an overseer must be faithful to one wife (1 Timothy 3:2). Using the pulpit to bless sin deceives the congregation. This calls for repentance, not applause.
Moment an American pastor and prophetess, who are both married, introduce a new wife to their congregation and announce that they are now in a polygynous marriage with a female church member, claiming it is the “will of God.” 😭🤦🏾‍♂️🙆🏾‍♂️

Scripture calls us to pray for those in authority (1 Timothy 2:1–2). Bishops should never be ashamed to pray with President Trump. Concerns about political publicity are fair to discuss, but @CBSNews should make that distinction clear. Prayer should transcend party politics.

Pastor @oturnbough at @lionheartchurch: Remember what Jesus said — “Satan does not cast out Satan” (Matthew 12:26). When witches throw curses at Trump and nothing sticks, it confirms it. The spiritual rage against him tells you whose side he’s not on.

Read your bible @jamestalarico. Jesus would never say “Blessed are the trans children.” However he DID say: “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female?” (Matthew 19:4)
Texas Democrat James Talarico: “What would Jesus do if he visited the Texas legislature? I think he would tell us: 'Blessed are the trans children'…”

Replying to @AlexPadilla4CA
@AlexPadilla4CA That’s not a check. That’s an honor system. Treating an unchecked claim of citizenship as proof is a false scale. Scripture requires evidence, not just assertion (Deut. 19:15). Elections are a public trust. Stewardship demands actual verification, not a checkbox.
I asked U.S. Senator Alex Padilla and former CA Secretary of State if California has the ability to verify if non-citizens are on the voter rolls. He explained it's "determined on the front end, when people register to vote." He's worried about timing of U.S. DOJ's action now:

@GavinNewsom lectures the nation on the republic while many in his own state say housing and homelessness are failing. @MayorOfLA faces the same charge on the streets. Leadership isn’t a speech. It’s fruit. “You will recognize them by their fruits.” — Matthew 7:16

Sums up California's voter laws.
New: One of the green card holders charged in US DOJ voter fraud investigation said no one at the poll he showed up to told him he couldn’t vote. Kamlesh Shah told @MaricelaDLCKCRA he has a Real ID and thought he could vote:
