On Holy Tuesday, the Temple became a battleground of truth versus hypocrisy. As He taught in the Temple courts, the chief priests, scribes, and elders approached with a calculated ambush: “By what authority do You do these things? And who gave You this authority?” (Mt 21:23) Jesus looked at them, steady, discerning, and asked a question in return: “Was the baptism of John from heaven, or from men?” They paused. If they said “from heaven,” they’d condemn themselves and admit Jesus’ authority. To deny John was to lose the people; if they said “from men,” the crowd might rise against them. They stayed silent, but unwillingly they answered: “We do not know.” And Jesus, unmoved, replied: “Then neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.” And Jesus, with piercing clarity, began to teach in parables: The Two Sons: one who said “no” but obeyed, the other who said “yes” and did nothing. The Wicked Tenants: who murdered the son of the vineyard owner. The Wedding Banquet: where the invited guests rejected the king, and strangers filled their place. Every parable exposed their hipocrisy. They knew He was speaking of them, the unfaithful, the murderers of prophets, the builders who had rejected the cornerstone. But they feared the people, and for now, they held their wrath. So they plotted subtle ambushes. They sent spies now, men of polished words and deadly intentions. “Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar?” they asked, with smiles. If He said yes, He’d lose the people. If He said no, He’d be a rebel. Jesus asked for a coin. Jesus: “Whose image is this?” The people: “Caesar’s.” Jesus: “Then render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” Silence. Then the Sadducees approached, mocking the resurrection with an absurd tale of seven brothers marrying one woman. Jesus answered with divine authority: "At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. But about the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what God said to you, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.” Even the scribes marveled at such a powerful retort. The day wore on. Jesus and His disciples left the temple and while heading to outside the city, His disciples came up to Him to call His attention to its buildings. Jesus replied to them: “Do you see all these things?” He asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” Then they headed to the Mount of Olives.

The Noahide laws are a set of laws gentiles will have to follow under Jewish rule. The penalty for violating them is death by beheading Noahide law 1: “Do not profane God’s Oneness in any way.” Who do you think is the target of this first law? And why now?

Canada just criminalized reading the Bible. Now quoting Scripture on marriage, sin, or God’s design for sexuality can be prosecuted as “wilful promotion of hatred.” This is how the West falls.

In the last decade, there have been about a dozen "greatest, most corrupt scandal in American history" incidents and absolutely nobody associated with any of those scandals has been held accountable in any way at all.

Today is Holy Monday. The day Jesus kicked the money lenders out of the Temple. Modern Christianity wants to paint Jesus as a harmless pacifist who just wanted everyone to get along. They couldn’t be more wrong. He doesn't write a strongly worded letter. He doesn't ask them politely to leave. He physically braids a whip of cords, flips the heavy wooden tables, scatters the money and expells them from His Father's house. The Lord is not pleased with mere appearances, trees without fruit, rituals without prayer, temples without reverence. He calls for authentic worship, conversion of heart, and fruitful holiness. Today He asks each of us: 1) "Am I a fig tree full of leaves but no fruit?" 2) "Is My heart a house of prayer, or a den of distractions?" Let Him cleanse the temple within you. Let Him overturn the tables. Let Him cast out every idol. Because where He cleanses, He heals. Where He purifies, He restores. Follow Him with all your heart and BEAR FRUIT! “I am the vine, you are the branches. He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for without Me you can do nothing.” - (John 15,5)

Roger Scruton has an incredible quote on why tradition is a duty: “We do not merely study the past: we inherit it, and inheritance brings with it not only the rights of ownership, but the duties of trusteeship…Things fought for and died for should not be idly squandered. For they are the property of others, who are not yet born.” Let’s not squander our inheritance. We have great work to do.

Be Thou My Vision (Old Irish: Rop tú mo baile or Rob tú mo bhoile) by Dallán Forgaill (translated by Mary Elizabeth Byrne, made into verse by  Eleanor Hull) + This beautiful hymn, started as a poem written in Middle Irish, at least a thousand years ago. dustyreviews.com/2026/03/29/be-…

Evangelicals are partly to blame for the collapse of Middle Eastern Christianity. They are the biggest supporter of wars which destroy Christians. But it goes way deeper than that. They view Christians like Assyrians in Iraq as a pawn to expand their footprint as "authentic" Christians. They can be so brazen that they even set up local organizations & try to convert *Apostolic Christians* to *their* brand of American Christianity. Imagine destroying an Apostolic, Aramaic speaking Christian community which is 2000 years old. Then setting up an NGO to convert them to Megachurch Protestantism through bribery & handouts. Isn't that insane?

Hildegard of Bingen: De Spiritu Sancto (Holy Spirit, The Quickener of Life) This sound feels truly ancient—and that’s because it is. De Spiritu Sancto was composed nearly 900 years ago, long before harmony, chords, or accompaniment existed the way we know them today. What you’re hearing is pure monophony: a single melodic line sung in unison. No voice rises above another. No one competes. Every singer becomes part of one shared, continuous breath. ✨

Huge news! Not public yet, but the PENTAGON has already made a move that will break the SAT/ACT duopoly that has controlled American education for generations. Starting in 2027 any college or university with ROTC will be required to put the Classic Learning Test on equal footing. People in the educational world know this is a huge deal because standardized testing, especially college admissions, inevitably drives curriculum. This could signal the beginning of the universal adoption of the CLT. We’re talking 1700 institutions. What’s tested is taught, and now a classical test will be on equal footing with SAT/ACT
