Original Airdate 12/13/22 David Fiorazo and Mary Danielsen review recent church history going back to the seminaries, liberal theology, and the roots of the church growth movement. This led to what was known as the Emergent Church, and its teachings crept in and slithered through American Christianity infecting countless victims. They pushed compromise, ambiguity, tolerance, globalism, mysticism, and in some cases, universalism, leaving a path of destruction. The unbiblical, secular influence on American Christians has been great. Why discuss this? Because many listeners have no idea what led to the launch of Stand Up for the Truth podcast.
“Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints. For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.” Jude 1:3-4
A Christian Perspective on the Social Justice Movement – The world has gone through a paradigm shift, and we now find ourselves living in a “social justice world.” Many would believe that is a good thing and finally the world can rid itself of racism, poverty, and injustice. Even many Christians have come to embrace this “new” way of thinking and dealing with society’s problems. But as Christian believers, do we really understand what lies behind the social justice movement? And do we truly comprehend what the “fruit” of this cultural “revolution” will be to both our society and the church? This book navigates the turbulent social justice issue—from a Christian perspective.

Play EpisodeTODAY’S GUEST: Pastor Kevin Minske of Christ the Rock Community Church in DePere, Wisconsin, a non-denominational Christian church near Green Bay. Kevin strongly believes in equipping the saints in part, by verse by verse teachings through the Bible, and stresses the importance of addressing prophecy, worldview, culture, and political issues while exposing evil and preaching the full gospel in season and out of season (2 Tim. 4:1-2).We discuss the importance of God’s Word and its authority in our lives, as well as how to respond to questions about life, what a biblical worldview consists of, and how we can do better at reasoning from the Scriptures and leading people to the truth of Jesus Christ.
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse. 21 For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their reasonings, and their senseless hearts were darkened. Romans 1:20-21

TODAY’S GUEST: Seth Gruber is a public speaker focused on equipping Christians and pro-life advocates. The son of a pregnancy resource center director, Seth was raised in the pro-life movement and has been speaking publicly on behalf of unborn children since the age of 19. He travels and speaks in Christian schools, churches, pro-life training seminars, and for pregnancy resource center banquets, and engages in academic debate.
He has spoken across the U.S. educating and equipping pro-life advocates to be a gracious and persuasive voice for unborn children. Seth Gruber is also a cultural and political commentator and host of the podcast, UnAborted!
“Just a reminder in case you haven’t realize this yet: abortion is the greatest sacrament in the alternative religion of Secular Progressivism, or in this case Satanism. This misunderstanding between Liberty and Licentiousness is at the root of nearly every political disagreement today. Liberty is not the freedom to do whatever you want. Liberty is the freedom to do as you ought.”
“Liberty assumes a transcendent moral order. And when someone tries to defend the slaughter of innocent human beings by appealing to their “liberty,” you have a right and a DUTY to push back and stop their “licentiousness” from assaulting other people’s LIFE and LIBERTY.” Seth Gruber

Stephen Mannion is the pastor of Faith United Methodist Church in Lancaster New York. Stephen Mannion is a member of “Liberty Pastors” and the founder of the Western New York Company of The Black Robed Regiment. Bill Cook is Executive Director of America’s Black Robe Regiment of Virginia, a clergy-led movement of Christian “Minutemen” committed to restoring the Foundations of Liberty in America, and the Pulpit’s Founding legacy.
We discuss the ACTS 5:29 Statement pastors and elders can sign declaring they will keep their churches open when government tries controlling worship or shutting down churches again. We address forgotten history of the “Black Robe Regiment,” the Johnson Amendment, growing movement of patriot pastors who refuse to back down from lies of the enemy and threats to religious freedom.
During the recent COVID-19 “pandemic,” representatives who were elected to secure our God-given rights, clearly transgressed their lawful authority in executive action that prohibited public meetings or mandated the wearing of masks and “social distancing.” God’s word directs us “not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together.” (Hebrews 10:25) This verse is a Divine injunction. We must obey God rather than the arbitrary decrees of men.

In yet another violation of biblical principles, the progressive United Methodist Church (UMC) voted to make “Reverend” Cedrick Bridgeforth, an openly gay man, bishop at their official meeting last week. Of course, they did. But if church rules and Bible doctrines no longer matter, why have them?
Sadly, more churches seem to be minimizing or reinterpreting Scripture. These deceivers often emphasize (code words alert!) diversity, equity, inclusion, tolerance, and strive to be ‘welcoming.’ It’s true Jesus welcomed sinners, but He also told them to repent, obey His commandments, and to go and sin no more!
After being elected, Bridgeforth told those gathered at the Western Jurisdiction meeting that he was “grateful to God Almighty” and “to my husband, Christopher.” But wait a minute. The UMC Book of Discipline forbids ordaining ‘practicing homosexuals.’ But rules are meant to be broken, right? Not if Jesus is your final authority. He is the One who created mankind and all things. He ordained and defined (natural) marriage between one man and one woman (Mark 10:6-10).
The Book of Jude appeals to Christians to stand and fight against attacks on the faith. See if you notice any similarities to today’s church as Jude warned first century Christians saying:
For certain people have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into indecent behavior and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. Jude 1:4
Deception, godlessness, and false teachers are nothing new.
Don’t miss the fact that a man in an open same-sex “marriage” was still elected to the office of bishop in the Methodist Church. Bridgeforth plans to “chart new ground.” He served as the California-Pacific Conference’s director of innovation and communication and received 73 votes out of 93 ballots cast. For those keeping score, that’s a majority.
It’s important to note that during the last decade, the splintered Methodist denomination finally split. Biblical Christians were tired of compromise, LGBTQ policies, women pastors, political correctness, and division over abortion and marriage. So after years of debate over holding the biblical line or accommodating sin, conservatives officially parted ways with the UMC and launched its Global Methodist Church.
Former UMC General Conference delegate, John Lomperis of the Institute on Religion & Democracy, said Bridgeforth’s promotion exhibits “further direct defiance of the UMC’s official rules, which is increasingly becoming normalized.” He adds:
“Bishops are entrusted with the sacred responsibility of upholding and enforcing our church’s doctrinal and moral standards. When the bishops are so openly breaking these standards, then this is a true ‘inmates running the asylum’ situation,”
According to the Christian Post, Loperis remarked about a female bishop also elected by the UMC, that she even refused to say if she believes in the physical resurrection of Jesus Christ. Apparently [she] does not believe in “basic biblical doctrine about His incarnation.” This is stunning.
Plenty of people mention God or even claim to believe in Him, but does your faith translate over into your life? Where’s the fruit? Do you obey the commandments? Anyone can say they are Christian and millions do, but it’s apparent they do not really follow Jesus and live out their faith according to the Bible. They are man-pleasers rather than God-pleasers (Gal. 1:10).
I think we know the sobering answers to these questions. It is reflected in the moral rot and decay of culture and the infestation of social justice and liberal ideologies into American churches.
It’s important to understand the historical decline. In 2016, the United Methodist Church (Western Jurisdiction) appointed the first openly lesbian bishop, and the election was unanimous! Karen Oliveto’s ordination was later deemed invalid by the Church’s Judicial Council a year later, but that didn’t matter; she remains in her position to this day.
The day before the 2016 UMC convention in Oregon, the “Reverend” Laura Young, a 48-year-old Methodist pastor in Ohio joined over a hundred United Methodist Church clergy members who came out as gay, lesbian or bisexual. Young stated at the time:
“I feel lighter already. I can be a better pastor and a better person when I can be my full self, living in the light and with integrity.”
In 2019, the UMC voted – by a slim margin – to uphold the church’s bans on ordaining LGBTQ clergy and performing same-sex weddings. However, that vote was disregarded by many progressive leaders within the UMC who rebelled and continued to commission openly gay clergy as well as officiate same-sex weddings.
The Bible warns us not to align with them and also says God will not be mocked. He never changes and neither does His Word which teaches you will reap what you sow, either sin and corruption or righteousness and everlasting life (Isaiah 40:8, Gal. 6:7-8).
Churches have been divided on politics for over a century, but the greater issue is division over clear, biblical, foundational doctrines and teachings. By the way, the (formerly) United Methodist Church is the third-largest Protestant denomination in the USA. Don’t think this couldn’t happen at your church.
The Apostle Paul said the Holy Spirit lives in believers and we are temples of the living God. He writes:
Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? …Therefore “Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.” 2 Corinthians 6:14, 17
How about you or your church? Do you have a decision to make?
For those in seeker-sensitive “churches” who no longer adhere to or believe what the Bible teaches, it doesn’t matter what they say. Christ the King will return as promised, sin will be judged, and righteousness, holiness, grace and truth will prevail.

TODAY’S GUEST is Pastor Joe Schimmel of Good Fight Ministries. Joe has been the pastor of Blessed Hope Chapel in Simi Valley, CA since 1987. His testimony of the transforming power of Jesus Christ in his own life can be seen in the powerful exposé, They Sold Their Souls for Rock & Roll, and has given live presentations at churches around the world.
Good Fight is producing a 7-part series, Marvel & DC’s War on God, an eye-opening series that documents how popular comic books – and the movies that they have spawned – are riddled with anti-Christ themes that glorify gratuitous violence, sexual perversion, blasphemy, and the occult. Many leading comic book writers have admitted that they are using seduction, manipulation, and satanism to influence our children.
We discuss the influences and agendas behind entertainment going back a hundred years to comic books, movies, and more. Good Fight Ministries strives to help parents and young people alike to better discern the underlying messages in many popular comic books and movies that affect millions of professing Christian families. As we seek to know the Lord and follow His word, it is imperative that we are wise to the ways of the evil one in popular culture!

Halloween is now a billion dollar business, second only to Christmas in commercial retailing and corporate influence. It is also an occult celebration surrounded by evil practices and believers must see it as an opportunity to share the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
On today’s podcast, David Fiorazo dives into the origins and history behind Halloween including the most demonic elements the Bible calls “abominations.” Still, Christians and other religious people respond very differently to the holiday. Should we ‘participate’ in a festival whose history and practices are for the dead, should we reject and have nothing to do with the celebrations – or something in-between?

Most Christians are not shocked at the cultural battles today, but the number of fronts can seem daunting. Remember: the issue is never the issue. Enemies of God are using every possible crisis to gain power – and they have – and we have been in a purposeful state of perpetual conflict as a result.
In case you haven’t noticed, the left has used constant pressure to force change and extend selected crises to wear down people’s resistance. Until more believers in Christ and His true church recognize and respond to these cultural battles and increasing spiritual warfare, the decline of morality and society will continue at warp speed. Our past silence has had severe consequences.

WE DISCUSS: misconceptions that Christians have about mental illness, depression and medication, Christians in the science and medical fields, mental illness in the pages of Scripture, King Saul's psychotic depression and paranoia, David's extremes of elation and deep depression, Jonah's narcissism, Nebuchadnezzar's breakdown, and the miraculous healings performed by Jesus.

In the Bible in the book of Acts, early church members gathered together amid threats of persecution and prayed to the Lord for the strength and perseverance to continue in Christ and spread His word. God answered their prayer: “After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly” (Acts 4:31). God rocked the house and the gospel spread throughout the region.
But in a relatively short time, the Lord had to address many issues within several area churches. The seven letters to the churches in the Book of Revelation were custom designed to specific congregations at that time. There are however, principles from each one we can appreciate and apply to our lives today. Jesus loves us enough to reprove and discipline us when necessary, and to warn us when we are becoming self-sufficient or have given in to subtle compromise.

When darkness increases, light shines the brightest. So how does America look today? Where is the salt and light? Are Christians equipped for the spiritual and cultural battles we are faced with today? As we strive to share the Gospel, there is also a spiritual war going on against Christ and His truth. The Bible encourages believers to be soldiers for Christ. And in Ephesians 6 Paul tells us to put on the armor of God. Why?
Believers need preparation and protection! Paul writes that the Sword of the Spirit is the Word of God, the only offensive weapon for believers. We must speak the word and, in order to do that we need to know the word of God.

All Hallows Eve, All Saints Day, Halloween, Day of the Dead, Harvest Festival, Thanksgiving, Advent, Christmas. The list could go on. As Christians, we live for Jesus Christ and celebrate Him. To live is Christ. He said to His followers "You are the light of the world." What does that mean? How then should we live and can light mix with darkness?
We recently talked about Halloween and its origins, and discussed how Christians should celebrate it if at all. But we're moving on to something that is evident in our culture and country year-round, sometimes obvious, often subtle: witchcraft. It's prevalent in our culture and entertainment industry, kids games, the Internet, and in public school curriculum.
How has the church generally responded?

It takes time, commitment, and discipline to train our flesh and mature in Christ, and one of the most important disciplines is investing in God’s Word. Growth in personal holiness is determined by our progress in self-discipline.
Victory always comes at a price. The effective Christian life demands we exercise self-discipline in areas like food, drink, sleep, our speech, family priorities, work, leisure, time management, and money. We must exercise self-control and restrict our liberties in whatever would hinder us from winning the prize.

To those of us who are older, seasoned Christians perhaps, we see an America today little like we experienced growing up. Certainly there were problems throughout our history, but nothing like we witness today. Moral decay, including the murder of 60,000,000 million children through abortion; a public education system that is in lock step with anti-god globalists; a media with no sniff of objectivity and in the tank for the far left; as well as a political party, the Democrats, that has completely sold out to global corporate interests and the radical LBGTQ lobby.
We live in a nation where both our religious freedoms and right to bear arms are increasingly under attack.
Pastor and best-selling author, Carl Gallups joins us to discuss just where America might be headed. He brings a unique perspective as a pastor, biblical scholar, and former Law Enforcement Official. Where are we headed and can this slide toward totalitarian government be averted? If not, what are the responsibilities of disciples of Jesus Christ toward a government that sees us as a threat to its power?

Two fantastic guests on the program means #doubletruththursday. Is that a thing? Anyway...
Today, Mike and David welcome first-time guest, evangelist, Willie Herath of Ratio Christi in southern California and we discuss apologetics, deeper questions in the faith, and how to effectively respond to nonbelievers. How important is it for us to be ready to respond when people have questions or have objections to Christianity. We often find out that they really did not know much about the evidence for the Christian faith and the Bible.
We also talk with radio host, Mike Zander, from Utah's Key Radio where he reaches out to Mormons in Utah with the gospel. He's in town today and in-studio with Mike LeMay and David Fiorazo.

So many controversial issues and debates, so little time! Here's what listeners want to discuss today:
To what level can a Christian be depressed?
How much does our faith play into our emotional and mental health, and how much depends on trusting God?
I know spiritual warfare is real because we are warned many times about it in the New Testament, but to what extent can demons influence Christians?
My strong hunch is that a majority of Americans have bought the lies about Justice Kavanaugh because they no longer think logically.
What do you think the greater problem in most churches is - ignorance in the pulpit or cowardice?
Didn't know how extensive the Burning Man movement has become. It seems like a combination of New Age, humanism, environmentalism, and a combo of religions: can you please boil this ideology down so it's easier to understand?
With all the division and spiritual confusion in the church, it's no wonder many young people want nothing to do with Christianity today.
I'm a newer Christian, could you please explain Replacement Theology? Is it a salvation issue?
Hillsong's stance on issues such as evolution, homosexuality, and seeker-friendly movement are concerning to the Australian Council of Churches. Hillsong produced some wonderful music, but as a whole they seem to have exchanged traditional, historical Christian doctrines to seek fame and fortune.
I'm a former Catholic and know some good Roman Catholic friends, even though many of their Church doctrines are unbiblical: can a Catholic go to heaven or not?

Our special guest today is author, Dr. Karl Payne, pastor of Leadership Development and Discipleship at Antioch Bible Church in Washington who formerly served as chaplain for the NFL's Seattle Seahawks. He has warned that America's current cultural climate is paving the way for overt demonic activity.

In Ephesians 6, Paul tells us that while people of the world will hate us because we are disciples of Jesus, our battle is not against them. It is against the "spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places." We are then warned to put on the full armor of God to wage war against these demonic forces.
In our final segment today, Mike and David look at an article on spiritual warfare from pastor Karl Payne discussing the demonic forces behind the division in our nation and how we should live in this world that hates us more and more.
We also visit with Pastor and best selling author Carl Gallups to continue our discussion from last month on his new, provocative book Gods of Ground Zero. Gallups reveals interesting facts and theories regarding the Garden of Eden, tying it in with actual history as well as biblical prophecy.

Some of today’s false teachers are under the umbrella of the emergent church which generally falls under the cult of Liberalism. This man-pleasing movement prefers to conform to this world and rejects the inerrancy of Scripture. They revel in the idea we are in a postmodern or post-Christian society, and often have a form of godliness but they deny the power of God and the Holy Spirit.
Charles Spurgeon once said,
“Discernment is not a matter of simply telling the difference between what is right and wrong. It is knowing the difference between right and almost right.”
If you are a disciple, a follower of Christ and lover of the Truth, we must not only learn to discern the times in which we live but also warn others within the church who are headed for the proverbial cliff. Thankfully, Jude gave us a detailed letter and an example to follow as to how to recognize and deal with false teachers and apostates who come against the Lord Jesus Christ and the eternal truths of Scripture.
The book of Jude (“Judah” in Hebrew) was written just thirty-five years or so after Jesus Christ ascended to Heaven. Most interestingly, Jude was not only one of four half-brothers of the Lord Jesus, but also a brand new convert to the faith. He was not one of the Apostles that lived and walked with Jesus, yet Jude called for discernment and chose to write about false teachers and the need to defend true, apostolic, biblical doctrines.

A few years ago I received a phone call from someone asking for prayer because he thought Satan was really attacking him. When I asked what was going on he told me his boss was threatening to fire him because he had received three speeding tickets while driving one of the company's trucks. I lovingly told him it was not Satan attacking him, but rather his own careless decisions that were leading to problems.
Sometimes we want to blame spiritual warfare for consequences to our own stupid decisions. But it is equally dangerous to underestimate the actual spiritual warfare the Bible warns us about which is the majority of modern Christians. Satan and warfare is real and God has much to say about it.
Elijah Abraham of Living oasis Ministries joins us to take a biblical look at spiritual warfare and our role in the battle as disciples of Jesus Christ.

In our final segment this morning, we look at the Trump Administration's efforts within the Department of Education to reverse some of the horrible damage done by President Obama's radical pro-LGBTQ and anti-Christian mandates.
But first we look at the most powerful weapon in the Christian arsenal: prayer. An all-powerful, just and righteous God actually invites us to come to Him with our hopes, concerns, requests, and fears. But do we fully understand the power of prayer and even how to pray? Do we sometimes pray as a last resort when our human efforts have been exhausted and proven ineffective? Are there restrictions or obligations God puts on our prayers? And how do we respond when God does not answer our prayers exactly as we think they should be answered?
Elijah Abraham of Living Oasis Ministries joins us to take a biblical look at the power and privilege of prayer in our lives as born-again believers in Jesus Christ. This includes three major categories of prayer.

Millions of people celebrate Valentine's Day today and the influences of this world have men and women spending billions of dollars on flowers, chocolate, romantic dinners and getaways. And the man-made vision of a fat little cherub firing arrows at people inducing love seems to reinforce a faulty belief: that love is something that happens to us without a choice, like a chemical reaction or a feeling we just cannot fight.
But what exactly is love according to God's Word? What should a strong, loving marriage look like? And why do nearly half of all marriages end in divorce? This sad reality even strikes professing Christians. Where are we going wrong?
We're joined by Pastor Jeff Solwold of Calvary Chapel in Madison, Wisconsin to discuss God's definition of love and His guidelines for a joyous marriage that glorifies Him, one in which honors one another. How do we as committed Christians have strong marriages even when things do not go according to our human desires, expectations, and plans?

It’s better to go to a funeral and get a reality check than go to a party. Why? Perspective. Death is a reminder for us (ten out of ten people die) so what are we doing with the life God has given us?
Yes, we might have a hard time forgetting – regardless of whether or not the experiences were happy or sad.
Some of us might look back and say those were happier times while others had such horrific childhoods or painful life experiences, they’re doing the best to overcome the effects of the past. For the Christian, “to live is Christ and to die is gain” (Phil. 1:21). Joy is a fruit of the Spirit and the joy of the Lord is our strength. Happiness is temporary and depends on circumstances as well as our perception of things. True joy however, is a gift from God. Press on in Him, dear friend.

Traditionally, European beliefs and culture are a precursor to what is going to happen in America. Today we look at some concerning trends of what a majority of the population in Europe believe regarding the Bible, heaven and hell, and gender. In our first two segments, we discuss the importance of the Parables used by Jesus to teach the people of His time. Why did Jesus speak in parables and what is he trying to tell us today as we read His Word? Joining us to discuss the context and importance of Jesus' parables is Pastor Mike Abendroth of No Compromise Radio.

Over the past several decades, the trends and statistics have not been encouraging. Studies show a strong majority of children agree with the deceptions of the world including atheism and evolution as well as the feelings-based ideology of the LGBTQ community, and up to 80% of young people walk away from their Christian faith as they enter college. Sadly, many of them never return. This is causing a lot of family problems and stress as Christian parents who deeply love their children wonder what can be done to prevent them from being swallowed up by a world under the spell of Satan.
Since our children are being influenced at younger and younger ages by agendas, ideas, and things of this world, how can we better equip our children to develop a firm foundation in God and His Word? And what can we do when we see signs thay may be drifting away from God and embracing the lies of the world?
Jay Seegert of The Starting Point Project joins us to discuss the tremendous battle Christian parents are facing in raising their children in the ways of the Lord.

The Enemy is advancing through our country, our culture, and even many of our churches because we have surrendered much ground and have not defended the truth. Though there is always hope for a revival – and I have no idea what it might take for this to happen – the light is dimming in and on America, and the clock is ticking.
Many have already been deceived as the Enemy has had success defining the terms of battle, and in many cases, redefining words. The Left has been promoting sin as normal, natural, and healthy, and when Christians speak up, it leads to charges of intolerance. If we do nothing, even more people will call evil good.”
If most Christians continue to avoid these battles, if we are not established in His truth, and if we refuse to defend the faith, society will rapidly deteriorate. If we do not pray to the only living God to give us wisdom, strength, and guidance, we won’t be able to effectively share the gospel, influence culture for Christ and bear good fruit for Him.

The New Apostolic Reformation movement (NAR) is one of the broadest and most powerful movements within Christianity today, yet many do not know about it or how to discern it. The NAR is recognized by claims of modern day apostles, prophets, performing signs and wonders, calls for Christians to take over worldly institutions to prepare for the coming Kingdom of God, and heightened calls of spiritual warfare against demonic spirits with specific names or geographical strong holds. While its ranks are growing, some are warning of the teachings of the movement, concerned with issues like new (extra-biblical) revelation and modern day self-proclaimed "prophets" speaking for God, similar to how the Old Testament prophets delivered the Word of God.
We're joined by Pastor Gary Gilley who has studied the New Apostolic Reformation Movement in depth and will discuss its doctrines and beliefs.

You may get tired of hearing about the issues involving this debate, but it is not going anywhere anytime soon. Religious freedom continues to be a constitutional right and a hot topic in today's post-Christian culture - a culture that has embraced moral relativism, and has been deceived by the redefinition of truth and tolerance.
Today, Brad Dacus, of the Pacific Justice Institute gives us an update on current cases including Ten Commandments displays, medical marijuana, transgender activism, and radicals suing Christian business owners. We also address recent concerns about the overreach of government and the courts in the lives of Christians. (See the articles below) Please don't give up or back out of culture, and don't stop voting or being involved in the political process that affects moral issues in America. Keep these matters in prayer and understand the spiritual nature of the battles being waged.
