God made animals for man’s eating, for man’s seating.
“Vegan leather” is a moral claim contradicting God.
Confess Christian faith. Buy leather. Sit on leather.
No shame. No apology.

DEI should be a matter of personal freedom, only. You and I can choose to promote it, but public institutions should not force it on their consumers. Unless, of course, COSTCO’s board members wouldn’t mind paying to end abortion as part of their utility bill?
Say no to COSTCO. https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/27/business/costco-dei

Now at the time of the Feast of Holy Innocents: Reports we read of the number of babies killed by abortion never include babies aborted by mothers’ use of hormonal birth control. Pro-abortion & pro-life organizations are agreed in not counting these victims.
Counting them would double the totals of babies we murder.

None of us are deep. Not our words or thoughts. Quoting a Puritan is better than quoting ourselves, but recognizing deep doesn’t prove a man deep.
What makes man deep is Scripture. Reading it. Meditating & obeying & teaching it.
Quoting it to the secularist hordes. That’s deep.

You won’t live a single second of your life gendered. God sexed you & every second of your life is male or female.
Rebel against it. Pay pharmaceuticals to suppress it or medical ghouls to mutilate it. Cosplay ur lusts. It will never work.
God made you man or woman.
Obey Him.

Across Middle Ages, Roman papacy sold salvation. It was a crass mercantilism cynically trading on men’s consciences, their fear of God and judgment. So, for instance, Rome got England’s King Henry II to promise to maintain 200 knights for a year in defense of crusaders ruling Jerusalem as his penance for murdering Thomas Becket.
The people had guilt that tormented them, and Rome was pleased to sell them forgiveness, which is to say salvation. This was the engine that drove centuries of crusades. Amazon.com

When He formed us in the inner places, sex is not something God added to our personhood. Sex is not a “role” God assigned us. Sex is who we are.
“From the beginning He made us male and female.”
There is no “me” underneath or behind or above or to the side of my manhood.

Read the news. Read history. Look at your own life and heart. Who Alone may we turn to other than God’s righteous Son, Jesus Christ. There’s nothing to wash us clean other than His blood. Come to Him and be washed by Him. This is Christian faith. This is the Gospel.

PresBiden has given our nation’s second highest honor to George Soros, the man who spends his riches promoting genocide. There’s nothing he’s more committed to than the slaughter of little babies.
Think of it: a Jew funding our present Holocaust.
Those thinking it’s anti-Semitic to point out Soros is a Jew have no clue what anti-Semitism is. What could be more anti-Semitic than the promotion of genocide? Soros’s sponsorship of slaughter of preborn class of persons is assault on fellow Jews crying “never again.”

On Jan sixth, I’m thankful for the Capitol Hill protest four years ago. Back then, I was grieved PresTrump didn’t shut it down. But now, look at the good it’s done. Oh my, did Democrats go into a frenzy, showing themselves the cowards they are. You know, slaughtering babies and all that. (And no, I’m not bitter, nor am I using hyperbole.)
To get some perspective on the frenzied response to January sixth by Democrats, remember their encouragement of all the BLM riots. We didn’t have four years of trials and sentencing afterwards, did we?
What to learn?
White collars being scared by blue collars every now and then is good for the rule of law. At a time when there had been a lot of them over the course of several years, PresJefferson acknowledged riots can be helpful to Democracy.
