    JB Hixson: Misquoted, Misread, Misunderstood

    Mary welcomes JB Hixson back to the podcast to talk about how Christianese often ventures into platitudes and fridge magnets, and from time to time, just absolute contextual disasters. Back in 2016, a book was published about things Jesus “never said”, followed by a raft of memes that were alternately funny and cringe-worthy. And unfortunately, even these, without discernment, are all over the doctrinal map. What’s to keep the publisher from releasing “Things Jesus Never Said: Cult Edition”? Instead, we look at some sayings that just don’t make the cut of biblical truth. Does God help those who help themselves? Is all truth God’s truth? Then we look at the Hallmark-card-friendly Jeremiah 29:11 and 2 Chronicles 7:14, checking into the context of 2 passages that are constantly misapplied. We might just challenge some long held presumptions today. Here’s some of what we tackled: 1. “You’ve got to wear your Sunday best.” 2. “Go into all the world and twist the Scriptures so no one is offended.” 3. “If you don’t like the church I established, just make up your own.” 4. “God helps those who help themselves.” 5. “You make your own luck.” 6. “You make your own opportunities.” 7. “Opportunity doesn’t come knocking. You have to go looking for it.” 8. “All truth is God’s truth.” 9. “God’s truth is all truth.” 10. “If it works, it must be true.” 11. “Live your truth.” 12. “The bigger the church, the more popular it is, the more it must be doing things right.” 13. “This too shall pass.” 14. “Love the sinner, hate the sin.” 15. “Haters are gonna hate.” 16. “All things work together for good.” 17. “God will not give you more than you can handle.” 18. “Share the Gospel, and if necessary, use words.” 19. “My life models the Gospel.” 20. “Just watch me and you’ll get saved.” 21. “For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you.” 22. “Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 23. “Judge not, lest you be judged.” 24. “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.” 25. “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray, I will heal their land.” 26. “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

    Headlines: The Trouble is Not With Your Set

    Some of our listeners might remember the intro to the black-and-white classic, “Outer Limits”, in which the narrator told the viewer that what you are seeing, while bizarre, does not indicate a problem with the messenger, that big old console television “set”. But rather, an outside force that exists independently from your moderated TV reality is doing things you might not understand. And truly, 60 years later, there are things going on that the average person does NOT understand. And that TV set will not help them.  Only true spiritual light from the Holy Spirit will brighten our path and our understanding. As believers, we not only should have a basic grasp of events, but even the knowledge of how they all fit together. Now is not the time for a normality bias, but to understand our world –  that is headed for judgment. On today’s headlines podcast, we talk about a first time ever religious gathering of all religions of the world. There have been many such confabs claiming to unite the world, but not quite like this one. We also look at the unhinged conversation that the Mayor of Seattle had with any scoffers who might listen in, that the Jews and Christians – and technocrats – are going to bring us all kicking and screaming into Armageddon. Another topic: Elon Musk and his ancestral technocratic dreams. And speaking of unhinged, El Sayed wants to ban any Sharia bans in America. Fun times.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
