The Kingdom Light – Episode 1104

On today’s show, we’re going to look at President Trump’s first week back in office. We’ll talk about the clear mandate that We The People gave him, and we’ll see just how well he’s doing so far at keeping his campaign promises. We’ll even start off by debunking some nonsense right off the bat.

Okay, Donald J. Trump was sworn back into office as President this past Monday. I have to say, when I heard the military choir sing The Battle Hymn of the Republic, it literally brought tears to my eyes. It was glorious.

But naturally, there were plenty of naysayers who poo-pooed the proceedings. Perhaps most notably, a number of anti-Trumpers took to social media and claimed that he “refused to” place his hand on the Bible while being sworn in.

Some said it undermined all his claims that God had spared him during the attempts on his life. Others even said he didn’t swear on the Bible because he’s the Anti-christ. And still some others pondered whether his failure to place his hand on the Bible might perhaps negate his swearing in altogether.

All of these notions, of course, are ludicrous banter from folks who are not only ignorant of the facts, but they don’t care about the facts. They just want to deride Trump. And most of them likely didn’t even watch the swearing in ceremony live.

The facts are these: First, Trump had his own mother’s Bible present, as well as the Lincoln Bible he swore in on his first time around. He obviously intended to place his hand on his mom’s Bible, or it wouldn’t have been there.

Second, the actual cause of the accidental flub was due to the ceremony being behind schedule. Presidents are always sworn in at precisely 12 o’clock p.m., however things did not proceed according to plan.

JD Vance was being sworn in as Vice President when 12 noon arrived, so there was a bit of a rush afterwards to get Trump sworn in. At 12:01, Justice Roberts hurried up and began having Trump start the oath before Melania was in position with the Bibles.

As a result, by the time she got in place, Trump was already focused on repeating after Justice Roberts and simply forgot to put his hand on the Bibles as he’d intended. It was a harmless mistake, and it means absolutely nothing. He’s still President.

What’s way more important than the swearing in ceremony is what Trump has done since. As promised, he hit the ground running – again. Executive orders undoing much of the damaging policies of Biden were signed on day one.

Not only that. Pardoning the J6 hostages, as well as the pro-life folks who were prosecuted for simply exercising their 1st amendment rights, that stuff was taken care of immediately, too. But it didn’t stop there.

Here’s one of my favorite executive orders Trump signed and how it went down. Let’s watch this one together…

[order to release all files pertaining to the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and MLK]

… All will be revealed, he says. And watch this part. This is great… I LOVE that! The pen he used to sign the order, he turns to his assistant and says, “Here, give this pen to RFK, Jr.” How freaking cool was that?!

What else? High on the list of priorities was ending the open border policy of the previous administration. The southern border that had seen millions of illegals pour in practically unfettered – is now closed. And the promised deportation process is underway.

The legacy media, of course, is still trying to make it seem that Trump’s border policy is heartless and cruel. They want you to believe that there are innocent, harmless immigrants who just want a better life who are being unfairly tossed out of the country, breaking up families and blah, blah, blah. It’s a load of garbage, as we’re accustomed to hearing from these fake news hacks.

I’m gonna show you an example of this. I have a couple of clips to show you of interviews with Tom Homan, Trump’s new director of ICE. This guy doesn’t mince words, and he doesn’t let biased media anchors get away with anything.

In this first clip, this CNN anchor understands very well what Homan said. She just attempts to convolute the issue for the sake of the bullcrap narrative she wants to dish out to her viewers – all 6 of them.

[clip1]

Even the chiron at the bottom of the screen during the interview says “immigrants here ILLEGALLY without criminal convictions will be arrested too” – as though they somehow shouldn’t be arrested just because they’re here illegally. Key word there is “illegally.”

Democrats and the media have been downplaying every terrible thing that has been happening for the past 4 years with a wide open border. They use the innocuous sounding term undocumented immigrants, when the truth is we’re dealing with illegal aliens. And many of them are violent criminals who poured in and went on to commit crimes against American citizens. Not to mention the Fentanyl crisis, with drugs pouring in across the open border as well. 

They kept telling us, “no, no, there’s no crisis at the southern border – everything is fine!” The gaslighting has been constant, and now their lies are finally being exposed.

As Homan told Fox News, within the first couple of days or so, ICE has already collared over 300 violent criminals who used the open border policy of the left to enter our country and commit more crimes.

In this second clip, Homan knocks it out of the park, explaining the very clear mission of ICE and border agents…watch.

[clip2]

That’s pretty clear, isn’t it? Go after the worst first, and get these murderers and rapists who are here illegally OUT OF THE FREAKING COUNTRY…a simple concept that seemed to elude the previous administration.

Also, we as the majority of the country voted decisively for the return of justice to the USA. Not just on the border, either. We’re tired of the nonsensical pot calling the kettle black accusations from the left that Trump’s gonna weaponize the justice system against his political opponents. Please. The establishment DC crooks have been doing that very thing against Trump for 8 or 9 years now.

And when we on the right go after people who actually did break laws – including the Biden crime family who had to get pre-emptively pardoned because they know they’re guilty – that’s not political revenge, folks. It’s simply justice.

Going after lawbreakers is the duty of the justice system. Period. And if Joe’s pardons of actual murderers (as well as his entire family) doesn’t show you how corrupt he is, you’re just not being intellectually honest. Fact.

It’s important to keep in mind here that the motivation of all these efforts isn’t hatred toward immigrants. The motivation isn’t revenge toward political enemies. It isn’t any of the fear-mongering nonsense that the left and the media claim it is. Nope.

The real motivation here is returning some sanity to our policies, foreign and domestic. It’s all about bringing justice back to our country. For too long, under the Biden/Harris regime, there has been no justice – plenty of injustice, but no true justice. But now, thank God, it’s back.

Frankly, God’s hands are clearly seen in all this. It took the extremes of corruption during the four years under Biden to wake a lot more people up. It took things getting as bad as they did to make folks realize how good they had it under a Trump presidency.

If Trump had gone straight into a second term right after his first, he wouldn’t have the mandate he has now. He would have never been able to accomplish all that he now can. Too many people will now never allow the government to shut down churches and businesses over some false pandemic hoax. The deep state overplayed their hand, and Americans won’t fall for it again.

This is why I keep telling friends who just don’t get it that this whole revolution isn’t even about Trump. It’s about a set of basic human rights that we refuse to let an over-reaching government to trample on. It’s about our resolute patriotism and love of freedom. And it’s also about fundamental beliefs in God and morality that we will not give up for any reason.

The idea of making America great again, at its heart, is a desire to return the country to a place of righteousness, Christian principles that made life here worth living, and bringing justice back while returning power to the people rather than a corrupt group of elites. Donald Trump just happens to be the one who verbalized all these things and vowed to fight for it. And he’s done it.

Against adversities, against all the efforts of the left to malign him, demonize him, jail him, and even the attempts to kill him, God has preserved Trump. He has worked through Trump to accomplish great things and even answer prayers of countless millions who have yearned for America’s return to greatness and godliness.

If you believe all the lies of the left, if you buy into the narrative of the legacy media, and if you think we’re all a bunch of mindless morons who worship Trump as some sort of messiah, that’s on you. I pray for you. I pray God will open your eyes to the truth.

None of us worship Donald Trump. He’s a flawed human being like the rest of us. There are no illusions otherwise. I worship my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. And I believe God has chosen to use Trump. So I will continue to pray for him, as well as Vice President Vance, that God will continue to protect and preserve them both for such a time as this.

In the meantime, remember the words of Micah 6:8…

“Do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with your God.”

And also, keep shining that Kingdom Light!

Today I’m going to share with you a recent dream I believe God gave me. The timing of this dream was quite interesting. I had it on the morning of New Year’s Eve. I believe it contains important warnings for today’s church, so please give it your full attention.

Before we get into it, I’ll remind you to smash that LIKE button. If you enjoy this episode, please SHARE it to your social media. You can follow the show on Rumble, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. And remember to check out our website – TheKingdomLight.com – for links, blogs, and more. That’s TheKingdomLight.com.

Alright, I titled today’s episode “Prophetic Dream for 2025,” but let me be clear about this. I’m not claiming some high status for myself. This isn’t about me. But I do believe God speak to us.

Furthermore, the opinions I’ll share today about what this dream means – yeah, those opinions are mine. It’s how I interpret it, but I will not sell God short on His ability to clarify His message to me.

That being said, please seek God yourself regarding what I’m about to share…

My dream started in a church. There were tons of people, including lots of youth. From all appearances, it was a thriving church. However, I soon began to notice things that were upsetting.

A young woman flirting in a promiscuous way, a teenage boy stealing tithe money, an obviously gay couple of men inappropriately hanging all over each other, and an overall emphasis on worldly things rather than preaching the Gospel of Christ.

I was quickly compelled to leave the building. After a short walk though, I felt a prodding to go back. But the church was gone, demolished. Onlookers were staring in shock that it was just no longer there.

Then I noticed someone was developing a shopping center just behind the former church grounds, and construction was beginning on a large building where the church had stood. I saw rod iron and scaffolding going up and soon realized a new church was being built.

Soon, I found myself inside this new building, still under construction. It was far from finished but taking shape and recognizable as a church. Even though it wasn’t completed, there were people inside. Lots of people.

That’s when I realized all these people were not at all what I had seen in the church previously. They were from several different nationalities and very poorly dressed. They were all thrilled to be there and have a place to learn about Jesus.

I again left the building and began to walk up the road. As I did, it began to storm. I saw violent winds tear trees in half and blow away dirt, rocks, and seemingly everything. In the aftermath, I looked back and realized…this new church was still there.

When I awoke, I pondered my dream. It suddenly hit me. Clearly and profoundly. I believe it was a warning from God. Churches filled with sinful behavior and people just pretending to be saints will soon be destroyed. And even though there will be those who wish to build shops and other things on the grounds, God will preserve it for new places of worship. Then every person who truly needs that place will flock there, even before construction is finished, anxious to hear the Word of the Lord.

And this warning came on the eve of a new year. It is my belief that God is about to do new and mighty things. We will see His hands tearing down and then rebuilding. And that which He rebuilds will stand no matter what comes against it. Nothing will be able to tear it down. And people will know it is because of the Lord, and they will worship Him.

Praise God! May it be so! But we also must be sure we aren’t among those guilty of just playing church or misusing the House of God. This dream seems very reminiscent of when Jesus cleansed the temple. Let’s look at Matthew’s account of that…

Matthew 21

12 And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons. 13 He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you make it a den of robbers.” 14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.

So after violently – yes, violently – driving out all the thieves and riff raff, Jesus re-established the temple for its true purpose. People who needed that purpose served in their lives then showed up and were ministered to.

I believe we’re about to see a modern day version of that temple cleansing take place. If you think that seems harsh, that God won’t destroy churches He sees as unfruitful and evil – let’s see what happened just a few verses after Jesus cleaned house…

18 In the morning, as he was returning to the city, he became hungry. 19 And seeing a fig tree by the wayside, he went to it and found nothing on it but only leaves. And he said to it, “May no fruit ever come from you again!” And the fig tree withered at once.

Jesus didn’t just curse that fig tree because He was hangry and in a foul mood. It was bearing no fruit in a time when fruit was needed. Now, what do you suppose will happen to churches which are yielding no fruit during these days when people really need it? This is not the time for half measures. WE, as the church, must be doing the work God’s given us with all our might.

Think about it. The first command God gave to Adam and Eve was “Be fruitful and multiply.” Ever since then, there have been numerous warnings about fruitlessness.

The Bible says we are the branches attached to the vine, which is Christ. If we as those branches don’t bear any fruit, what happens to us? We get pruned! Cut off, and tossed into the fire! God makes it very clear what He expects of us.

As we move deeper into the final days, may we seek God’s face all the more. May we strive to be fruitful so that He will find us doing His will. Let us not be caught condoning sin or allowing evil practices to become commonplace in the Lord’s temple, which is our own bodies.

1 Corinthians 6

18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

Indeed, we should glorify God in all we do. Let’s keep both our houses of worship AND these bodies, which are the temple of God, clean and holy. Those who fail to do this are soon going to reap the very wrath of God.

Seek righteousness now. Accept the correction of the Holy Spirit. Pray for wisdom, and strive to be fruitful. When the day comes, may we be found shining that Kingdom Light!

The end time harvest is upon us, and it’s HUGE! I believe God is calling in a harvest of souls that will be larger than any of us ever thought possible. This is the final call. Laborers are needed NOW!

We’ll dive into that in a moment. First, you know the drill, go ahead and smash that LIKE button. If you enjoy this episode, please SHARE it to your social media. And remember to follow us on Rumble. You’ll also find show transcripts, links, and more on our website – TheKingdomLight.com, that’s TheKingdomLight.com.

Okay, 2024 is now in our rear view. It was a year of great revelations, but it was only the beginning. I believe 2025 will be an incredible year, with more truth exposed for all to see. But I also feel strongly that we are entering into an amazing time of harvest.

As you recall, we saw the likes of Russell Brand and others come to Christ last year. It’s always a joyous occasion when another soul is saved, but there’s something unique about Brand. He has a very large following, having been a comedian, actor, and social media influencer. His openness about his newfound Christianity has a major influence on millions of people. That’s a big win for the Kingdom of God.

Another person we saw inch closer to the right in 2024 was Joe Rogan. Now, he hasn’t professed to be a Christian – yet – but the sheer ridiculousness of wokism from the left has definitely pushed him further in our direction. He has even gone so far as to say that we need Jesus and His teachings now more than ever before, recognizing the positive influence of Christ on society.

With influential people like Brand on our side, and a host of others that God has brought into contact with Rogan, I pray it’s a short time before Rogan himself comes to accept Jesus. And folks, there’s not a podcaster out there right now with greater influence over a wide range of people than Joe Rogan.

Why am I talking about this? What I’m pointing out is that God’s hands are clearly working in all this. Divine orchestration is what has set all this in motion. And I believe it’s leading up to an end time harvest that will shock the world! THIS is what I’m looking forward to in 2025!

Matthew 9

³⁵ And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. ³⁶ When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. ³⁷ Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; ³⁸ therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”

My brothers and sisters, we are seeing this happen. It’s an awesome time to be alive. But don’t be content to simply witness these events unfold. No, we all have a part to play! That’s what’s so exciting! We have a golden opportunity to be laborers in a glorious end time harvest!

Here’s the shameful part of it, though. There are too many of us who still want to be content, complacent, sideline Christians. When we see people who need Jesus, we figure God will send someone along eventually. We want to be part of the Kingdom of God, but we keep waiting for someone else to do the work.

Go back and read verse 36 again. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them. Too often, we lack the compassion Jesus spoke of here. A lot of those who claim to be Christian would rather just have their little “bless-me club” time at church on Sunday morning and live for themselves the rest of the week.

Worst of all, they often go to great lengths to avoid being put to work. There’s a term for that in the military – it’s called dereliction of duty. Let me remind you that it is the duty of every child of God to disciple others. That’s more than just winning souls; it’s also helping mentor them to the point that they can win others to Christ as well. Again, we all wanna go to the big party, but too many of us don’t have any desire to help put it together.

I don’t mean to beat you over the head. It’s not my goal to point my finger and call you out for being a bunch of slackers. Truth is, we can all do more than we’re doing most times – myself included. What I want to do is remind us why we should be excited to get involved with what God is doing.

Things are already in motion. We’ve gotten merely a glimpse of how God is working to bring people back into His arms of grace. There’s so much more that we don’t see. And the moment has come when the fields are getting white for the harvest.

Right now, God has put the “Help Wanted” sign in the window. He’s calling in a harvest, but He’s also calling in His willing and faithful servants to help usher these new souls into the Kingdom. Will YOU answer that call?

Fellow believers, I urge you to go to God in prayer and say, “Here I am, Lord, awaiting Your command.” You may think, I don’t have any special skills. That’s the enemy telling you that you’re useless, and he’s a liar. You may ask, what can I do? And that’s the perfect question to take to God. Remember, He equips the called, you just have to be willing to obey.

I think we’ve seen plenty of evidence that God can use anybody. David was a womanizer. Paul persecuted Christians. You’ve heard the list before. Even today we see God using those no one would have ever guessed, like Russell Brand. He can certainly use you as well.

By the way, it seems God has been doling out a lot of end time dreams lately. On the next episode, I’m going to share a dream He gave me the morning of December 31st. It was very powerful, and you won’t want to miss it. But let me close out today’s show with this…

A preacher friend of mine recently shared a dream he had. In the dream, he was preaching about revival. When he gave the altar call, multitudes of people began pouring forward. They just kept coming, seemingly multiplying as they grew closer. Even the walls of the church building began to expand as the people continued streaming in.

He said, “As the altars filled beyond what I could comprehend, people were hungry for Jesus and crying out for the outpouring and fullness of the Holy Spirit. That is where the dream suddenly ended, but I awoke from it overjoyed, praising and thanking God.”

I firmly believe this was a picture of what we’re about to see happen in 2025, and this harvest is gonna be HUGE! So whatever you do this year, listen and obey God’s commands, and never stop shining that Kingdom Light!

I love learning new things from the Bible. Studying scripture is something we should all practice daily. And if you’re like me, when you gain some new bit of knowledge, you want to share it with others. Nothing wrong with that, it’s a good character trait to wanna share what you’ve learned. But sometimes, we can get a little carried away with ourselves.

Too often, we can make some discovery and automatically jump to a wrong conclusion while imagining we know more than we actually do. I’ve done it myself. The problem comes when we start advising other Christians based on our own faulty logic. I’ll explain what I mean in a moment.

Also, this is going to be the final episode of 2024. We will be back in January 2025, and I’m sure we have lots to look forward to with the coming new year. As much as this has been a year of revelations and exciting occurrences, I feel like things are only going to intensify from here on out. So look for this show to return in just a few weeks. Now, let’s jump into this…

In the last year or two, I’ve come across videos by some folks who usually have pretty good content. But a few times, I believe, they got a little bit off track. Kudos to them for their research, but I disagree with their conclusion. Here’s what they discovered and what they got from it.

In studying scriptures, ancient texts and manuscripts, they traced back to find out the “true” name of the Savior. What they found was that the name Jesus didn’t appear until later translations – which is true. If you look at the original Hebrew and Aramaic writings, you’ll see different spellings and pronunciations which are very different from how we say Jesus.

They believed that because of this, we are in error when we say His name is Jesus. We should instead refer to Him as Yeshua – which again IS a correct name for the Christ. And they also made similar claims about how we shouldn’t use the term God, but rather we should say Jehovah or Yahuah. Starting to sound nit-picky?

The reality is that Jesus spoke Aramaic, as did Mary and Joseph. His original name in Aramaic was pronounced Yeshua. That name is derived from the Hebrew name Yehoshua or Joshua. It was later transliterated to the Greek as Iesous, which was then transliterated to Latin as Isus, which in English is Jesus.

Again, their research isn’t flawed, but the conclusion they’re drawing is. When names are transliterated, that simply means they’re being spelled and pronounced in a different language. These guys still argued that the name Jesus isn’t a correct derivation of the original Yeshua.

Here’s the thing. When we call on the name of Jesus, or Yeshua, we are calling on a person. If I pull out my phone to call my brother, I go into my contacts and tap the one that says “Stan.” If we’re in the same room and I want to get his attention, I call out his name – Stan.

But sometimes, I say “hey, bro.” Other times, I might just call him “dude.” He knows when I’m talking to him either way. Whether I call him Stanley, Stan, bro, dude, or whatever – he still knows. I’ll come back to that point in a bit.

Now, I’m not saying names aren’t important. They are. They have meaning. This is especially true of most biblical names. But just like my brother isn’t the only Stan or Stanley in the world, there were and still are other people named Jesus, Joshua, Josiah, or whatever. For example, Jesus is still a popular name in Mexico, only it’s pronounced Jesús.

Sure, names have importance, but that importance is because of who the PERSON is. More importantly, when I talk to Jesus, I’m speaking with someone that I am familiar with. I know Him, and He knows me. So He knows when say the name Jesus, I am most definitely talking to HIM.

There’s no mistaking it. Jesus is never confused about who I’m addressing. Not once has He ever gone, “Oh, you mean Me?” He’s never said, “Hey, I’d rather you call me Yeshua.” We have a relationship with one another. Sometimes I actually do call Him Yeshua – usually when I’m worshipping. But either way, He knows.

The other reason I would defend calling Him by the name Jesus is that I understand the power in His name. Again, the power in the name isn’t because of the name itself, it’s because of the PERSON to whom you’re referring when you say it. The name of Jesus isn’t like a magic word. The personhood of Jesus is where the power is.

If I was Hispanic, I would call Him Jesús. And since that’s still a common name in Mexico, I might even have a friend, relative, or co-worker named Jesús as well. But you see, only one of them has power in His name, and it’s because of WHO HE IS.

Furthermore, did you know that you can think you’re following Jesus and be following a worldly, ungodly counterfeit devised by satan? Example, the Mormon church claims to follow Jesus, but they believe a lie written by Joseph Smith, claiming the book of Mormon is “another testament of Jesus Christ.”

That book does not line up with known biblical teachings of Christ. They do not serve the true Jesus. So that name holds no power for them because their Jesus is a false, made-up Jesus. He’s not my Jesus. He’s a fake. Not real. No power.

On the other hand, I know my Jesus is the real deal BECAUSE OF His power. I know without a doubt that I can call on the name of Jesus – it doesn’t have to be Yeshua, though that works too – but I know the name of Jesus has power because of WHO HE IS. I’ve felt that power, experienced it many times, so no one will ever convince me that calling Him Jesus is somehow incorrect or inappropriate.

Remember that old quote I’ve shared many times by an old preacher who’s gone now. His name was Dr. J. Bashford Bishop, and he said, “A man with an experience is never at the mercy of a man with an argument.”

I’ve witnessed miracles that happened in the name of Jesus. I have personally had healing take place in my own body because of prayers requested specifically in Jesus’ name. The name of Jesus has been used multitudes of times to cast out evil spirits, end demonic possessions, and so on. When I want to get rid of wicked thoughts, I rebuke them in the name of Jesus. It always works. Don’t tell me that’s the wrong name!

We have a responsibility to win souls for Christ, so how about we avoid getting hung up on every newly discovered detail that has no real bearing on the reality of God? How about if we leave the finger wagging to the devil. He does enough of that himself.

I mean, hey, if it’s truly a loving correction for other saints of God, I got no issue with that at all. If it’s note-worthy and beneficial to our faith, by all means, let’s continue learning more about God – more about the Messiah and His awesomeness. But let’s be wise and not fall into some trap of the enemy.

Remember, demons tremble at the sound of Jesus’ name. They know who He is, and they know where His power comes from. We would be wise to focus on our relationship with God through His Son. Make sure you really KNOW Him. Know Him intimately. And rest assured, He will be there when you call His name.

Folks, thank you so much for watching or listening to this podcast throughout 2024, or for reading the transcripts on our blog page. I sincerely hope you have a joyous and amazing Christmas, as well as a richly blessed new year. We’ll see you again in 2025, right here on The Kingdom Light.

One of the current social hot buttons is transgenderism. Today we’re gonna dive into this controversial topic and talk about the motivation behind it, what it means, and where it leads. But first, let me remind you to smash that LIKE button if you enjoy this episode, remember to SHARE it on your social media, and don’t forget that you can find transcripts of the show on our website – TheKingdomLight.com. Now, let’s get into this…

It’s meant to somehow blow apart the stance we conservatives take on keeping biological men out of women’s restrooms by flipping the situation around to a biological woman who identifies as a man. By posing this scenario, they are attempting to create a “gotcha” moment and make light of our position on the subject. But they have missed the point.

What they fail to see or acknowledge is that our position on keeping bio-males out of women’s restrooms is based on the idea of protecting women and girls from predators. I’m not saying every male who identifies as a female is a predator – though I do believe such a person is mentally confused. But when you allow any and every guy dressed like a woman into the ladies’ restroom, you are creating an unsafe situation for the women and girls.

It’s simply a biological fact that most males are stronger physically than most females. Now by letting a biological man into a confined space with your wife, sister, or daughter, you’ve endangered them by creating this environment where a genuine predator could take advantage of the situation. In a dress, in a wig, in makeup, that guy should never be allowed in the ladies’restroom – period. Argue if you want, but it’s a matter of keeping women and girls safe.

This meme that attempts to flip the script falls flat for one simple reason: It’s a non-issue. No one is encouraging this gal to use the ladies’ restroom while looking like a man. There’s an entirely different situation that’s being created here. Yet its cause is the same – someone has exchanged the truth for a lie.

Am I saying I don’t care if a chick dressed like a dude comes into the men’s restroom? No, I’d rather she didn’t. All I’m saying is, it’s a whole other issue from when a man identifying as a woman goes into the ladies’ restroom. If you can’t see the difference, you’re just not being intellectually honest.

But the trans movement itself is a much larger and more sinister issue. Its threat to humanity runs deeper and is more insidious than most people realize. This is because, at its heart, it is an open biological rejection of God’s creation. It rejects and runs counter to the very Word of God.

This unnatural belief is currently being foisted upon the young and confusing them. It first causes them to question how God made them, and then makes them doubt the Creator entirely. It takes God’s ultimate creation of mankind in His image, and twists it into something it was never meant to be.

Satan attacks the minds of those who are going through social and mental issues. He tells them things like, “You’re just trapped in the wrong body. All your worries and troubles will go away if you simply change your body.” Lies! Going against God’s natural order won’t solve your problems – it’ll compound them and make everything worse.

The basic core of the trans-sexual belief is defiantly anti-God. It tells God, “You goofed up. You got it wrong. You made a mistake. You put me in the wrong body.” It makes God Himself out to be flawed and fallible. This is a slap in the face of Who He is, and who could possibly be behind such a direct affront to the Most High? That’s right, satan.

Furthermore, transgenderism is merely a step along the way to the ultimate goal of transhumanism. Make no mistake, that’s where this all will eventually lead. Yes indeed, pardon the expression, but transhumanism is the ultimate middle finger to God that says, “We reject how You made us in YOUR image, so we are remaking ourselves in an image of OUR OWN choosing!”

This is satan’s next big play. He already corrupted mankind with sin, but Jesus made a way for our redemption. So what does the devil do in defiance? He corrupts our thinking and fools us into believing we can become better, more powerful, more indestructible, yes even immortal, more like gods ourselves by making the leap from human to transhuman, merging humans with computerized machines.

You may laugh or think this is a ridiculous notion, but I’m telling you that transhumanism is the goal of many of the power hungry elites. Just like Lucifer thought before them, they believe they can become gods. That’s why they are doing everything they can to normalize all trans behavior now.

You say, “Come on, man! Why would you make such a claim?” Just read the Bible. The evil forces in this world have always sought to destroy and/or corrupt God’s creation. This is not a new concept. The serpent did it in the garden, tempting Adam and Eve with the promise of becoming “like God.”

The fallen angels known as the watchers polluted the bloodlines of humanity by taking the daughters of men as wives and procreating with them, resulting in the Nephilim – the giants of old. Those giants even defiled wild beasts, birds, and other animals, which resulted in demonic hybrids of man and beast. Do you realize that’s where mythical legends of centaurs, mermaids, and other hybrid creatures came from?

This pollution of life on earth became so abhorrent that God sent the Great Flood to destroy all of it. He started over with the one man, Noah, whose bloodline was pure, and his family. But the Bible tells us that that wasn’t the end of the Nephilim, that they existed again after the flood. So fallen angels who serve satan began polluting human DNA with their own AGAIN.

You’ve heard me say before that demonic forces pose as aliens. They’re not from some far away planet, they’ve been here for thousands of years. Always plotting, scheming, and divising ways to remake God’s creation in their own image.

Alien abductions? Very probably demonic tampering with the human genome. Those types of occurrences tend to happen to people who have somehow opened a door to the occult or to the demonic realm in some way or another. When you realize this has always been going on, the dots connect themselves.

And here’s something interesting that I bet you’ve never heard before. Many people who had abduction experiences said they were able to put a stop to it immediately by calling on Jesus. The name of Jesus has the authority to end an “alien abduction” experience instantly. What does that tell you?

Check out this short clip of an interview where this guy is reading a quote from a former FBI agent who investigated several of these incidents over the years…

Whoa, dude! How did we get from transgenderism to aliens? Like I said, they’re not aliens – they’re Nephilim or other demonic beings. It’s all connected. This isn’t a random tangent. Everything that is evil and opposed to God and His natural order is connected. The trans agenda is satan’s agenda, and we must oppose it at every single turn by shining the light of truth on it for all to see.

This goes way beyond all the trans stuff. Abortion is also a direct attack on creation and the image of God. In the Bible, He says, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” It states that “we are fearfully and wonderfully made.” Satan hates that. He uses abortion as a means of deeply hurting the heart of God.

I could go on and on. Homosexuality is another example. The Bible calls it unnatural and an abomination before God. It’s a defiance of the natural order God established. All other sexual deviations from what He intended are also open defiance of Him, whether it’s fornication, adultery, beastiality, or anything else that is a sex act outside of marriage between a man and a woman.

Sin in general is open disobedience of God, whether we realize that’s what we’re doing at the time or not. When we hate our fellow man instead of loving the way God commands us, when we rob God by not tithing, whenever we allow self to become more important to us than our relationship with God – it’s all the same rejection of His ways in favor of our own ways.

All of this is connected. Everything evil, everything that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and everything that willingly defies His natural order – it’s all connected. And not only that, but it also disconnects us from Him. And Jesus is the ONLY WAY BACK!

Too many in the world today are lovers of evil things. People love self more than anything. They want only to please themselves rather than to please the Creator. They want to serve themselves rather than to serve others. And they love darkness more than light because they can hide their evil deeds in the dark.

Friends, let me tell you, there is a better way. We have to reject the evil things of this world, or we’ll wind up rejecting God. There is great freedom walking in God’s grace and forgiveness. Jesus bought our redemption with His own blood, and we have power in His name and through the Holy Spirit to live life abundantly in Christ.

Do you want to be a new creature in Christ? Do you want to be able to see through the enemy’s schemes? Do you want a fresh revelation of what truly lays ahead and what evil forces are up to in real time? You don’t have to be caught off guard by satan’s agenda. And you don’t have to remain blinded by his tricks. Jesus is your lifeline. Talk to Him today.

Pray and seek God’s will daily. Ask Him for wisdom and discernment. Obey His teachings, and accept His free gift of salvation right this minute. There’s no reason to wait. If you feel Him dealing with your heart, listen. He’s saying…

“Come home, my child. I’ve been right here waiting for you. This is your moment. I want to show you all the things you’ve been missing. I want to share eternity with you. You will never feel alone again. I love you more than you could possibly know. But the days are growing short, and there are troublesome times ahead. I can bring you through it all if you just take my hand and let me guide you. Trust in me, and I promise to never let you down.”

If you feel like that message is for you, I wanna pray with you right now. Just say this with me, say, “Jesus… I believe You are the only way… I believe You died for my sins… And I believe You rose to life again… To give me eternal life… Jesus… I proclaim victory… Over every obstacle… Over every wicked scheme… Over every trick of satan… And I invite You, Jesus… To be Lord over my life… To guide my steps… And to keep me in Your will… Now, Jesus… I thank You… For saving my soul… For forgiving my sins… And for changing my life… From this day forward… I am Yours… I give You praise… In Your holy name… Amen.”

Welcome to the Kingdom! If you prayed that prayer, I’d like to hear from you. Please email me at kingdomlight@usa.com (repeat). All of heaven rejoices with you, as do all true saints of Jesus Christ! May God bless you all, and please, keep on shining that Kingdom Light!

The Kingdom Light – Episode 1098

-Begin Transcript –

For too long now, our society’s attitude and mindset has been hijacked. The culture has been dictated by the perverse whims of evil forces infesting the film industry, music industry, and even our own government. Darkness cannot be allowed to prevail any longer. It is our duty to turn people back to the light.

On today’s program, we’re going to look at how WE – the church – can be the driving force in changing the culture and returning hearts and minds back to God. As I’ve said before, this constitutional republic was designed for a moral and religious people. It doesn’t work well for a nation deeply corrupted by evil practices. We have to return to Christ, or toss out the Constitution. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out which one is best.

Days prior to the 2024 presidential election, I posted this:

People have become so blinded with hatred toward one man, so convinced of the lies that foster that hatred, so entirely distracted by this falsely invoked malice, that they cannot see the real agenda of the corrupt DC machine. Every single lie is a distraction from the truth that our country is about to be destroyed by evil elitists who want to bring about a one world authoritarian government. Trump was simply a billionaire that all the lefties loved until he got involved in their sandbox. He could be enjoying his golden years on a yacht or a beach, but he instead endures one vicious attack after another in the fight to save America from the elites. They tried impeachment. They tried indictments. They tried countless hoaxes and defamation tactics. They brought up his past and tried to convince us they know what he’ll do in the future. More than once, they’ve even tried to assassinate him. But he’s still standing and his support base is stronger than ever. He has been joined by lifelong democrat RFK, Jr., who also has keen insight into the corrupt DC underbelly. But the corporate media – owned by the same elites who want Trump taken down – keep spewing visceral hatred and despicable lies about him AND those who support him. They want us divided against one another so we never unite against them. They paint MAGA as every horrible thing that it’s not, from brainwashed cultists to white supremacists. Well I’m tired of being lied about. Yes I am MAGA because I believe this country can be saved from the power-hungry elites, that America can once again be a shining light of freedom, and that it can be great again for ALL AMERICANS. The establishment crooks in DC – whether they have a D or an R next to their names – will continue increasing taxes, spending us deeper and deeper into debt, engaging in wars for profit, and lining their greedy pockets as usual. This simply cannot continue without the collapse of our economy and the fall of our nation. Whatever you think of Trump, remember that he’s the only person to step into the political arena and not gain personal wealth. He actually lost personal wealth, and he even donated his presidential salary. Why would anyone do that? Why continue to be a target for endless attacks, awful lies, and especially the would-be assassins’ bullets? Why not step out of harm’s way and back into the cushy life of a billionaire? Why indeed, except to stay the course and complete the mission. Most people would have quit by now. Being so grossly lied about, misunderstood and hated would’ve worn most people down. This is why I pray for him and his family. This is why I stand with Trump despite the terrible things being spread in hate and vitriol. This is why I’m MAGA. But go ahead. Say what you want. Keep spreading the vile venom of the propagandists. Keep listening to the legacy media if you want. Keep regurgitating their lies. I pray your eyes are opened one day soon. God help us all. And please, God, save this country from those who would destroy it.

Why did I bring this up? Because it has been the evil forces controlling the media that has molded the public misperception of both Trump and all the people who support him. The continual lies have convinced close to half the population that he’s an evil dictator and his MAGA followers are a bunch of fascist bigots. This is the same song they’ve been singing since 2015.

When Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in 2016, she accused him of cheating. She was the “election denier” who called him “an illegitimate president.” The legacy media pundits promoted the same lie. But when they rigged the 2020 election with covid, changing the voting rules, falsifying truck loads of mail-in ballots – they said it was “the most secure election in history.”

There was so much fraud surrounding the 2020 election. We saw video surveillance of poll workers running thousands and thousands of ballots for Biden after kicking out the poll watchers, closing the doors, and saying they were stopping the counting for the night. Numerous whistleblowers came forward to admit fraudulent activities, including truck drivers who shipped hundreds of thousands of ballots across state lines. I don’t want to rehash it all, but there was plenty more suspicious activity – but the media told us, nope, no evidence of any fraud whatsoever.

After the landslide results of the 2024 election, we have a unique opportunity to examine the numbers from previous elections in a new light. The goal was to make it too big to rig, and large numbers of early voting helped make it to where it was just too difficult to cheat. So what do the numbers say about past elections? Let’s take a look…

First of all, how do you make sense of the anomalous nature of 2020 totals as compared to those before and after?

An average of 15 to 20 million more total votes in 2020? And can you guess who they were all for? Here’s what Benny Johnson said…

Here’s a tweet from Collin Rugg. Look at these numbers…

For any of you who doubted us in 2020, calling us election deniers and the like, do you maybe see now how we might be a little bit suspicious of those numbers? If that doesn’t drive the point home for ya, perhaps this graph will…

How do you possibly explain that large blue bar representing democrat votes in 2020 compared to the previous elections AND the one since? If you’re listening to the audio only, go watch this on Rumble or look at the transcript available at TheKingdomLight.com. This graph, to me, tells the story quite well.

Guess what? The job’s not done. The lies haven’t stopped. We still have a battle between two opposing world views. On one side, they keep saying Trump is a misogynistic creep – while back here in the real world, He just named his campaign manager Susie Wiles to become the very first female White House Chief of Staff. Hmmm.

But let’s get back to today’s topic. This isn’t about Donald Trump. It’s about us. The overwhelming results giving him a victory also gave him a mandate. Likewise, the same God that gives us victory gives us a mandate as well. It is OUR responsibility that I really want to talk about. The answer to changing the culture is simple: Do our job. Lead people to Christ.

See, I showed you all this to illustrate how easy it has been for a motivated group of establishment elites to control the narrative, thereby controlling what a large portion of our society thinks. Here’s the thing – we don’t need to control people’s thinking, but rather, we need to help FREE them from these evil influences. It’s our job to destroy the lies and help people see the truth, to bring them out of darkness and into the light.

Okay, how do we do that? How can we effectively change this culture that’s been taken over by satan and his minions? We must be more motivated to win than the enemy. Fortunately, we have a great example in the person of Jesus Christ. What did He do?

When Jesus came on the scene, He challenged people’s thinking. He organized a small group of people who were hungry for truth, and He instructed them in how to reach others with the greatest news of all time – the Kingdom of God is at hand! The curse of sin is broken, and the light has come into the world! What am I saying? I’m saying it all comes back to spreading the Gospel of Christ. That’s our prime directive, our mandate, our Great Commission.

Why does this matter so much? Especially in the current culture? This generation is filled with people who have been blinded by lies. We have to expose the truth that sets them free. And the closer they come to God, the more ability they will gain to see through the false narratives of this world. The Holy Spirit brings power, and we all need it.

Isaiah 9:2

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone.

We want this scripture to be true for America. So we need to pray harder than ever for God to open the eyes of the blind. And let’s stop waiting to see what the enemy will do next. There’s a culture to change and souls to save. We’ve been on defense for too long now. It’s time to go on the offensive, storm the gates of hell, and fulfill our mandate to spread the Kingdom Light.

Folks, I’m gonna keep on saying it because it’s true: We have never been any closer to the end than we are now. That’s not an empty platitude, either. We’re so close to Jesus coming back now, I can feel it. There’s something very perceptible, we can sense things are about to happen quickly. At the beginning of 2024, I called this the year of revelation, sensing a lot of things would be revealed. Now the book of Revelation seems to be unfolding in front of us, and we need to be prepared for what’s ahead.

What I want to talk about today is the plethora of distractions out there which are meant to hide the truth. Unfortunately, a lot of the current deception is happening within the church itself, as it has become infested with false teaching and idolatry. It’s not just a problem of watered-down Christianity, it’s blatantly fake Christianity. The message of the gospel has been convoluted with worldly precepts, excusing sinful behavior rather than teaching the need for forgiveness.

False teachers ignore the simplicity of the gospel. They allow societal hot topics to complicate things. I’ll explain what I mean. Here’s how simple and uncomplicated the gospel message is: sin is the unholy stuff we do that separates us from God, and Jesus is the only way back to God. Put another way, sin is the disease and Christ is the cure. Or how I like to put it, sin is the cancer while Jesus is the answer. Simple. We need Jesus. He’s our path of forgiveness and redemption, and nothing else can do that. Only Him.

The problem people run into is not wanting to admit something is sin. The societal hot topics I mentioned a minute ago are those controversial issues like homosexuality, abortion, etc. You know, the stuff that many in the church today want to make allowance for. But the fact is, it is society that dictates what is or isn’t a hot topic. What the church has done – in order to not offend certain people – is compromised the principles of Christianity.

Forget for a moment that homosexuality is a hot topic. That’s not the issue. The Bible clearly lists it among a list of unnatural and abhorrent behaviors to be avoided. Beastiality is listed right along with it, and most people agree that’s disgusting and wrong. But it’s also listed along with fornication and adultery. Why doesn’t society make those hot topics? Well why would they? These are largely ignored already by the church. Let’s take a closer look at this.

Fornication is sex before marriage. Now I’m not going to ask anybody to raise their hands, but I know for certain that a lot of us have been guilty of this one. I openly acknowledge that I committed this particular sin several times in the past. I knew it was wrong, but I did it anyway. Why? I let my flesh and hormonal impulses override my sense of right and wrong. And let’s be honest here, I figured I’d ask for God’s forgiveness afterwards.

That attitude toward sin is dangerous, and it’s exactly why we tend to ignore certain sins in the church. It’s why some Christians may rail against homosexuality, all the while ignoring their own sexual sin. Jesus said a man who looks lustfully at a woman has already committed sin in his heart. It’s all sin. One is not worse than the other. It’s all equally perverse. And sinful actions have undesirable consequences.

Adultery is sex with someone other than your spouse. Again, do we usually place this sin on equal footing as other sins? We like to think there are different levels and severity of sin, but in reality, any and all sin is capable of destroying your life if you let yourself be ruled by it. We need to stop allowing sin of any kind to gain a foothold in our lives. We have access to God-given power over sin if we’d just use it.

We all have a sinful nature – a tendency or predisposition to sin. But we are called to hold ourselves to a higher standard out of love and respect for the One who redeemed us. It is His faithfulness to us that ought to make us desire to stay faithful to Him. Having a tendency to engage in sin doesn’t mean that we have to entertain that urge to sin. We can rebuke it and rise above it through Christ, regardless of what that sin is. This is what we should be teaching people.

Sadly, there are a lot of churches today that compromise the gospel message to accommodate societal norms. It is the church itself that should be helping to shape and guide our society, rather than the other way around. Yet we still let what society thinks influence our theology. So we end up with a wishy-washy message that favors people’s feelings over the actual truth of God’s word. This nullifies any meaningful influence of the church and gives people zero guidance for dealing with life’s trials.

Don’t shy away from the truth! Never let social acceptance override biblical virtue. We can’t make excuses for sin just because it’s uncomfortable to speak truth to it. And we can’t get sucked into the lie that preaching against sin is somehow hateful. Truth, even when uncomfortable, must be spoken out of love for people and concern for their eternal destiny. And it’s not being judgmental to point out destructive behavior, which is what sin is. It’s actually the caring thing, the loving thing, and the right thing to do.

So let’s keep obliterating the lies that lead people astray, and let’s boldly and lovingly give people the truth without compromise!

On today’s program, I’m gonna revisit a controversial topic – one that is painful for me to talk about because of how deeply it hurts my heart, and I know it breaks the heart of God. I’ve discussed this issue at length in the past, and on more than one occasion. But it’s still a present issue that cannot be ignored. I ask your forgiveness in advance for the graphic nature of this particular episode, but I believe we have to expose the fullness of evil that exists within this difficult subject matter. It has been sugar-coated, glossed over, and completely misrepresented for far too long.

Let’s begin in ancient times when several tribes of people used to worship many false gods. Among those deified as gods was the arch-demon, Molech/Moloch. In addition to sexual rituals, Moloch worship included child sacrifice which involved tossing babies into bonfires. As reprehensible as it sounds, a young couple who sacrificed their first-born child in such a way believed that Molech would then grant them good fortune in life.

At some point, large statues were built of this demon. He was depicted as having the body of a man and the head of a bull. In the sacrifice ritual, fires were lit beneath the upward-facing hands of Moloch. These metal hands would get extremely hot, and then babies offered up would be placed into those glowing hot hands by a Molechian priest. As you can imagine, the sacrificed children would scream in pain and gladly opt to roll off the hand into the fire below. Again, I apologize for the horrific pictures this paints in our minds, but we need to understand just how evil this practice truly was…and still is.

What?! This kind of thing can’t possibly still be going on, can it?! The ritual has changed somewhat over the years, but it indeed continues to this day. Now, however, the ones who offer up their children for sacrifice have no idea what’s actually happening. Oh, they willingly give over their unborn babies, but the priests have been swapped out for physicians who mutilate and extract the unwanted children. Some parts are collected for supposed medical use, and the rest is then incinerated. They call this abortion.

It’s touted as healthcare, but no one seems to care about the health of the aborted babies. It’s deemed a reproductive right, but there’s nothing at all reproductive about killing the unborn. They call it a medical procedure, but it’s really the barbaric butcher and murder of an innocent and defenseless human being. And this evil act takes place most often purely out of convenience for someone who failed to choose responsibly when having unprotected willful sex.

As I mentioned in my very first blog post, The Truth About Abortion, the three most identified examples of “hard cases” in which aborting the fetus might even possibly be “justified” are in the cases of rape, incest (familial rape), and when the pregnancy threatens the life of the mother. In reality, however, reported cases of rape or incest being the reason for having an abortion are around 0.33%. And cases where abortion is utilized to protect the life of the mother is about 0.1%. So that means that all these hard cases combined amount to less than HALF of one percent, leaving more than 99% of abortions as simply a matter of convenience.

Whether in ancient times or modern times, sacrificing an innocent child’s life on the altar of convenience is completely indefensible. It’s not a matter of “my body, my choice” because that choice of what to do with your own body was made when you carelessly had sex of your own free will. The growing fetus within you is NOT your body. That’s your baby’s body. And we are obligated to nourish and nurture and care for that child. Life is ordained by God, and we are to be held responsible for our actions because they have consequences.

Most people, when confronted with the reality of what abortion is, will agree that it is morally wrong. And I have to warn you that I’m about to show you one example of what an aborted baby really looks like. It is not for the faint of heart, but I believe that we MUST KNOW THE TRUTH. If you have been on the fence regarding this issue, or if you have found yourself vehemently opposed to what I’ve been telling you today, this is going to be your wake-up call. If you have defended abortion as perfectly okay, then you need to look closely here at just what it is that you’re defending…

Disgusting, isn’t it? This is the ugly and evil truth of abortion. And it doesn’t matter if it’s done at 8 weeks, 20 weeks, or whenever. It’s still ending the life of an innocent. If this image does not turn your stomach and break your heart, then God help you. All the stories you’ve been told about abortion being an important part of women’s healthcare, it’s not really a life yet, it’s just a clump of cells, and on and on – that’s all a bunch of lies from the pit of hell. And THIS photo should convince you of that.

Folks, I’m not trying to shock you, though it IS shocking that we’ve allowed this travesty to continue for so long. I’m trying to open your eyes to the truth. Sometimes, the truth is ugly. Sometimes, it’s horrific and hard to look at. But if we just keep on ignoring it like we’ve been doing, this senseless slaughter will just keep on going. And all the demons will continue to rejoice at our demise and at the debasement of our seared consciences.

We’ve been desensitized to so much cruelty. Through movies and television, we have become unmoved by the blood and gore around us. Hell loves it. The indefensible attack on the unborn is an open defiance of the very image of God. Jesus said that the innocence and purity of children is like unto the Kingdom of Heaven. And as for those who harm those little ones in any way, the Bible says it would be better for such people to have a millstone tied around their necks and be tossed into the sea.

Make no mistake, a day of reckoning is coming – SOON. When that day comes, I want to be found doing the Father’s will – which includes helping protect the lives of those who cannot protect themselves. No matter what fiery darts or flaming arrows the world wants to throw at me for doing so, I will never cease to advocate for the sanctity of human life. Ever.
