Principles for Orthodox apologetics. 1 - Before anything, revere God in your heart. This involves prayer, attending services, and seeking God with all your heart. This is only found on your knees in prayer. 2 - Be prepared. For Protestants this "preparation" centers around knowing the Bible very well. If you are going to debate a Sola Scriptura person you need to be prepared to answer them on their terms - from Scripture, not tradition. And Scripture supports Orthodoxy because it came out of the Church. But the Bible also tells us that we are not to prepare a defense in advance. Luk 21:14-15 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. This means we are to be guided by the Spirit. 3 - When apologetics is done right, it's done with ""gentleness and respect". Pride and arrogance are the downfall for all of us. Talking over the other person is one evidence you are not acting with respect. The other person is allowed to be rude. The Orthodox Christian is not. They are allowed to be arrogant. The Orthodox Christian is not.

If you listened to Jay Dyer on Tucker and you still think Eastern Orthodoxy is a valid option, you are cooked. Literally.

It's kind of hilarious how the regime in Iran is firing missiles at the entire region EXCEPT for Israel, because they know Israel will simply kill them all if given a reason.

Across races, one thing is clear: the farther left you are, the more you appeal to elite white liberals while insisting you represent minority communities and the working class.

Michael Knowles just re-tweeted @JayDyer's talk with @TuckerCarlson. Could the long desired discussion finally be drawing near?

I just watched this session where Bart Ehrman, as a liberal agnostic/atheist, goes in-depth on Pau's teaching on salvation. What made this so remarkable is that Ehrman basically says and agrees with everything I have said and taught about Paul's views of justification, what justifying faith really entails, sin having two senses for Paul, Christ's death being a payment to cancel our debt, baptizing into Christ to destroy the power of sin in us, etc, youtube.com/watch?v=rmelkp… Lord willing, I will be reiterating these themes when I finish my breakdown of Galatians 3:13. In the meantime, listen to this liberal confirming my exegesis.

The medical establishment is BURYING a proven cure for diabetes, heart disease, and mental illness! Why aren’t we talking about this? Investigative journalist Nina Teicholz, PhD shares evidence from multiple randomized clinical trials showing a dramatically low-carb diet can REVERSE devastating chronic diseases — in WEEKS, not years. The data is staggering: • Reverse Type 2 Diabetes: Participants reversed their T2D within 10 weeks — including those who had it for an average of eight years. • Reverse Hypertension & Cardiovascular Risk: The vast majority of cardiovascular risk factors can be reversed. • Transform Mental Health: Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder symptoms can be reversed. Depression and anxiety reduced by 79%. This knowledge has existed for a decade, yet it remains buried. 38 million Americans have Type 2 Diabetes. How many headlines have you seen about reversing it with food? Now think of the thousands of articles pushing drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. The silence on a nutritional cure is DEAFENING. This is a medical revolution being ignored. The tools for healing are already on our plates.

What is the point of vaping? It’s not a healthier alternative to smoking and the people who do it look like idiots, suckling on a battery like it’s a pacifier
