The Word of God inevitably must be criminalized by those who despise him.

The leftist Canadian government has been systematically removing rights in the name of hate speech for years, but at least up until now, there were some protections for religious beliefs within those power grabs.

Washington just passed a “Millionaires’ Tax” to fund social programs.

At first glance, it sounds simple:
Take from those who have more → give to those who need it.

But Scripture draws an important distinction:

“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7)

This raises a deeper question:

Is compelled redistribution the same as generosity?

Because biblically, giving isn’t just about the outcome—
it’s about the heart behind it.

When giving is:
→ voluntary
→ intentional
→ cheerful

…it produces something far greater than provision:
It shapes character, responsibility, and trust in God.

But when giving is replaced by systems:
→ responsibility shifts
→ generosity becomes externalized
→ and people can begin to equate paying taxes with doing good

The issue isn’t whether people should be helped.
They should.

The issue is whether we are becoming a people who:
→ give freely
or
→ rely on compulsion to accomplish what the heart no longer does

A healthy society doesn’t just redistribute resources.

It cultivates people who are willing to give.

That’s the difference.

When examining the Trinity… you don’t need to waste time on the unclear verses that are used to imply it… when there are numerous verses that clearly make it nonsensical.

Matthew 24:36
“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.

“He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them," he said.

BREAKING: Christian parliamentarian (and heroine) Päivi Räsän has been convicted by the Finnish Supreme Court of "hate speech" under “war crimes and crimes against humanity” section of the criminal code for a 2004 booklet she co-authored with Bishop Juhana Pohjola on the biblical view of sexuality.

The Court also ordered that the booklet “removed from public access and destroyed.”

"I have gotten thousands and thousands of messages from people who have told me that they have been encouraged following this case, encouraged to read the Bible, to pray, and people who have told me that they have found Christ and mercy through this case," Räsänen said today at a press conference.

I started watching Coffee with Scott Adam's shortly after his controversy and quickly found it was yet another false assertion on the part of mostly Leftist Woke Critics...

I was very saddened to hear about his cancer and then again that he was not a believer. I know many will criticize that he has taken "Pascal's Wager"... but I think he deeply reflected on logic and reason and for him Christian Faith was a logical conclusion, and one with no downside. I know my faith is much more rooted in that than "feelings" myself.

Here are some of his final words on the topic... and a special message for Christians who take the time to share their faith.

Rest in Peace Scott Adams. Hope to see you later.

“Retelling the Christmas Story: New Light on the Birth of Christ” By John W. Schoenheit

The story of the birth of Christ reveals what we today consider to be the true spirit of Christmas. Not people closing their hearts and homes to a couple in need, but rather people opening both their hearts and their homes, and joyfully giving to others in need and helping where they can.
