The Cross, Symbol of the Christian Church. Do we grasp the depth of its meaning today?

The Cross, Symbol of the Christian Church. Do we grasp the depth of its meaning today?

The cross is the symbol of the Christian church, a repulsive instrument of death, reserved only for the worst criminals in the ancient world, but now the symbol of the Christian faith. We’ve stain-glassed it, embroidered it, molded it, galvanized it, carved it, and made jewelry out of it, but do we grasp the depth of its meaning?  OCA President Chris Long and Pastor Al Davis review the Scriptures on the cross of Christ during this Holy Week.

The So-Called "Equality Act" is on Fast-Track. Liberty Counsel Explains

Jonathan Alexandre, Governmental Affairs at Liberty Counsel, explains the dangers of this bill H.R. 5, the so-called "Equality Act."

The Equality Act would overhaul our federal civil rights framework to mandate abortion access and special privileges for sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI), leaving many to suffer the consequences, including women, children, medical professionals, and people of faith.

 

 

The Filibuster, the stubborn senate rule that is stopping Democrats from advancing their radical agenda.

The Filibuster, the stubborn Senate rule that is stopping Democrats from advancing their radical agenda.

On this week’s News in Focus, we provide a legislative update from Washington D.C. on HR5 the so-called Equality Act. The Equality Act would overhaul our federal civil rights framework to mandate abortion access and special privileges for sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI), leaving many to suffer the consequences, including women, children, medical professionals, and people of faith.  

The Equality Act mandates an anti-life, anti-family, and anti-faith agenda upon all Americans.

We also review HR 1 The Federal Elections Bill

HR 1 mandates the most questionable and abuse-prone election rules nationwide while banning commonsense measures to detect, deter, and prosecute election fraud.

The bill would force states to adopt universal mail-in ballots, early voting, same-day voter registration, online voter registration, and automatic voter registration for any individual listed in state and federal government databases, such as the Department of Motor Vehicles and welfare offices, ensuring duplicate registrations and that millions of illegal immigrants are quickly registered to vote.

States would be required to count every mail-in vote that arrives up to 10 days after Election Day. States must also allow ballot harvesting—were paid political operatives collect absentee ballots from places such as nursing homes—exposing our most vulnerable voters to coercion and increasing the risk that their ballots will be tampered with.

At the same time, state and local election officials would be stripped of their ability to maintain the accuracy of voter rolls, barred from verifying voter eligibility, and voter ID would be banned from coast to coast. Tune in and learn why the Filibuster Senate rule is stopping the Democrats from pushing their radical legislative agenda at least for now.

Breaking Down H.R. 1 Federal Elections Bill Disaster

Breaking Down H.R. 1 Federal Elections Bill Disaster

Senior legal counsel for the Heritage Foundation, Hans von Spakovsky, breaks down H.R. 1, the federal elections bill that the Democrats are trying to push through Congress. It passed the House last week with only Democrats supporting it. 

The bill would force states to adopt universal mail-in ballots, early voting, same-day voter registration, online voter registration, and automatic voter registration for any individual listed in state and federal government databases, such as the Department of Motor Vehicles and welfare offices, ensuring duplicate registrations and that millions of illegal immigrants are quickly registered to vote.

States would be required to count every mail-in vote that arrives up to 10 days after Election Day. States must also allow ballot harvesting—where paid political operatives collect absentee ballots from places such as nursing homes—exposing our most vulnerable voters to coercion and increasing the risk that their ballots will be tampered with.

At the same time, state and local election officials would be stripped of their ability to maintain the accuracy of voter rolls, barred from verifying voter eligibility, and voter ID would be banned from coast to coast. CALL YOUR U.S. SENATORS AND TELL THEM TO OPPOSE H.R. 1 - THE FEDERAL ELECTIONS BILL DISASTER.

The cancel culture is exploding - Censorship and attacking personal views is on the increase.

The cancel culture is exploding. Censorship and attacking people for their personal views is on the increase.

The censorship by the big tech companies continues unabated. First, they canceled President Trump's Twitter account that had 80 million followers, then they censored a number of national conservatives, including members of Congress; now they're coming for you and me. But, some are fighting back, like Florida Governor DeSantis. His state is introducing legislation that will penalize big tech for censorship, bias, and unwanted data collecting of Florida citizens. Hopefully, more states will follow.
