Famous Chicago Bears' Coach Mike Ditka Died Yesterday

James 4:13-17, “Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil. Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.”

Mike Ditka, the legendary Chicago Bears Football coach and player, died on October 9, 2026, at the age of 86. Mike Ditka was the Chicago Bears’ head coach from 1982 to 1991, and he led the team to a Super Bowl win in 1985 (Super Bowl XX). He was a great coach whom I followed closely as a teenager in the early and mid 1980s. The Chicago Bears are known as the “Monsters of the Midway” due to their strong defensive history, particularly highlighted during their dominant seasons in the 1940s and the famous 1985 team. I and my Christian high school friends were big Chicago Bears fans.

We admired Walter Payton (1954-1999), a running back for the Chicago Bears. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest running backs in NFL history. Payton could bench press 400 pounds and yet gracefully dive over opposing team players to score a touchdown in the end zone. He was an amazing athlete.

We adored the team. The nickname “The Fridge” was given to William Perry, a defensive tackle for the Bears. The nickname originated when a teammate remarked on Perry's size while they were in an elevator together, saying he was “as big as a refrigerator.” The Bears were incredible! I've never been a sports enthusiast. Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) loved sports and followed professional teams closely, knowing all the statistics by heart.

Tragically, Mike Ditka was known for his strong Roman Catholic faith, which played a significant role in his life. If you know anything about Catholicism, then you know it is a false religion that contradicts many Biblical teachings...

Coach Mike Ditka Dies – His Strength and Iron was His Catholic Faith 

October 9, 2026 | by Catholics for Catholics

By Elizabeth Gresosky

The family of Mike Ditka announced on Friday that the football legend has passed away at the age of 86.

Ditka was the first tight end ever inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and he coached the Chicago Bears for 11 seasons, leading them to a Super Bowl victory in the 1985 season and earning the title NFL Coach of the Year in the years 1985 and 1988. 

But more importantly, Ditka was proud of his Catholic faith.

John Yep, President of Catholics for Catholics, issued the following statement:

“As a lifelong Chicago Bears fan, I grew up hearing countless stories about legendary Coach Mike Ditka. Nicknamed Iron Mike – a moniker he earned due to his rugged, tough playing style, brusque manner, and his upbringing in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, a gritty steel-manufacturing town – Ditka’s real strength came from his Catholic Faith. He once said, 

‘But I am so grateful for the Roman Catholic faith with which I was raised. My dad didn’t go to Church, but my mom was a terrific Catholic – a fervent convert to the faith – and always saw that we went to Mass and Catholic school.’

There is nothing like our Catholic Faith which equips us to face the hardships of life with the Iron Will that Coach Ditka exhibited throughout his life. 

It’s only fitting that he passed away on the Friday before the Bears head to Lambeau Field on Sunday to play the Packers in this storied rivalry. Let’s pray for his soul because at the end of our lives everything here stays behind, even his memorable 1985 Super Bowl ring. What matters most is our Catholic Faith and love for Jesus. 

Coach, you will be missed greatly and one day we hope to see you again. Until then… God Bless and Go Bears!!”

In a 2018 interview, Ditka spoke volumes about the importance of the Catholic faith, the need for more vocations, the value of the sacraments, and more. SOURCE [emphasis added]

I cannot warn you enough to avoid the Catholic religion. We are warned by the Apostle Paul in 2nd Timothy 3:5, “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.” That “power” is the free grace Gospel according to Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” The toxic sacramental salvation of Catholics and Lutherans cannot produce the required new birth to enter into God's Kingdom (John 3:1-7). The word “sacraments” is not even found in the inspired Holy Bible.

Whereas Catholics are errantly taught that their priests have power from God to forgive men's sins, the Word of God plainly teaches in 1st Timothy 2:5, “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” Neither the Pope or any Catholic priest have power to absolve men's sins. If you trust a priest to forgive your sins, you won't be forgiven and will spend eternity burning in the Lake of Fire.

I truly mean no unkindness to Mike Ditka or his family. My intent is never to be unkind, rude or hurtful toward anyone; but rather, to warn you that what Catholicism teaches goes 100% contrary to what the inspired Holy Bible teaches. There is nothing in the Bible about partaking of manmade sacraments to get to Heaven. Roman Catholicism is a prisonhouse of religion!

Whenever a famous person dies, I immediately become curious what they believed about God, His only begotten Son Jesus, the afterlife and salvation. It is one of my hobbies. I love learning the biographies of famous and infamous people.

Dear reader, life is so short. I just learned today that famous singer Bob Marley (1945-1981) was only 36 years old when he died. Bob Marley died from acral lentiginous melanoma, a rare form of skin cancer that started under his right big toenail in 1977 and later spread to his brain, liver, and lungs before his death on May 11, 1981. Bob Marley died so young. Life is short, Hell is hot, and eternity is a long time.

Keith Moon (1946-1978) of the rock band 'The Who' died at age 32 from a drug overdose. Amy Winehouse (1983-2011), who had a beautiful singing voice (there's a nice concert on YouTube of Amy singing with Tony Bennet), died of alcoholism at only age 27. Her Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) was 40%. That's nearly half of her blood saturated with booze! I digress.

My point is that life is short. Mike Ditka made it to age 86. By God's grace, I will turn 60 on March 5th, 2027. I am not entering into the third act of my life. Please don't let the Catholic religion take you to Hell forever with them. Salvation is found only through childlike faith in Jesus without works, not by joining some church or getting dunked in a baptistry tank. John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

The World's Most Beautiful Sunset

Ephesians 4:21-27, “If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil.”

If my dear Savior was willing to forgive me for the things in life I've done wrong, then I certainly can forgive everyone else for what they've done to hurt me. Until you've forgiven somebody who is wrong, and you are right, you've never tasted of the Heavenly manna.

Here are one dozen worthy quotes on forgiveness to ponder:

“He who has not forgiven an enemy has not yet tasted one of the most sublime enjoyments of life.” —Johann K. Lavater 

“Nothing in this low and ruined world bears the meek impress of the Son of God so surely as forgiveness.” —Alice Cary

“Humanity is never so beautiful as when praying for forgiveness, or else forgiving another.” —Jean Paul Richter 

“It's a choice, that's all it is. Forgiveness is a choice. And it's a choice you ask God to help you keep. It doesn't happen overnight. Forgiveness is an ongoing battle.” —Tammy Faye Bakker

“Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.” —Mark Twain

“We win by tenderness; We conquer by forgiveness.” —Frederick William Robertson

“Never does the human soul appear so strong as when it foregoes revenge, and dares to forgive an injury.” —Edwin Hubbel Chapin

“Only the brave know how to forgive; it is the most refined and generous pitch of virtue human nature can arrive at.” —Laurence Sterne

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.” —Mahatma Gandhi

“Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred.” —Corrie Ten Boom

“Not to forgive is to be imprisoned by the past, by old grievances that do not permit life to proceed with new business.” — Lance Morrow

“Forgiveness doesn’t make the other person right, it makes you free.” —Stormie Omartian

There is no greater feeling in all the world than to just forgive everyone. Let go and let God. I decided a long time ago to just forgive everybody, even those who have never asked for my forgiveness. Forgiving someone in no way excuses someone from the coming judgment from God for their wicked words and behavior. Forgiveness is releasing someone who has wronged you into God's hands for judgment. They're going to be judged by God whether you release them or not, but by placing the offender into God's hands you can find peace and move on.

This is why we are taught in Romans 12:19-21, “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”

I cherish this promise from almighty God. Nobody ever gets away with wrongdoing. NO ONE! Hebrews 4:13, “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.” One day in the afterlife, you and I and every human being who has ever walked this earth will be held accountable by our Creator for every word spoken (Matthew 12:36), every deed (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14), and even our very thoughts and motives (Proverbs 24:12). There is no escape!

On my website ministry, since 2002, I preach against many corrupt churches and wicked pastors. It's not a matter of forgiveness, any more than you could accuse John the Baptist of refusing to forgive Herod for sleeping with his brother's wife. John was being a preacher of righteousness and truth when he spoke out against Herod's sin, faithfully doing what God made him to do, preach. So, we must use wisdom to discern between Bible preaching which is necessary, versus refusing to forgive somebody on a personal level. Of all the ungodly pastors that I preach against, there's not one of them whom I hate or wouldn't befriend if they sincerely contacted me in a spirit of good will.

The main reason why it has been easy for me to forgive all my enemies is my faith in God, believing that the LORD will keep His solemn promise to avenge me. Just knowing that God won't allow those who have hurt me to go unpunished is enough to calm my soul. God's Word is enough for me. Matthew 8:8, “The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.” Jesus marvelled at the centurion's response, saying that He had not found such faith in all of Israel. I find it amazing that the “greatest faith” Jesus found in all the land wasn't from a Jew, but a Roman centurion. I think that is beautiful. A Gentile had the greatest faith!

The reason why many Christians become bitter and enraged with anger is simply because they don't really believe that God will make good on His promise to avenge them. Granted, it is difficult to wait a lifetime to be avenged, but God will make good on His promises to hold everyone accountable for their words and behavior. Even if someone intentionally ruined your day with their words, God will hold them accountable for their cruelty. Matthew 7:2, “For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.” Truly, what goes around does come around.

Many people believe in karma. “Karma” is an ancient Indian term that refers to the principle of action and its consequences in various schools of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Taoism. Pastor Jack Hyles called it, The Reciprocating Law of Life. Regardless of what people may call it, God must balance the equation. If you hurt other people but don't suffer for it, then Jesus Christ must suffer for it. One way or another, somebody's got to pay! That is what Calvary's cross is all about. But if you reject God's free gift of forgiveness by refusing to receive Jesus as your personal Savior, then you alone will pay your debt of sin in Hell forever (Revelation 20:12-15). Somebody must pay for all wrongdoing.

The first words uttered by Jesus on the cross were: “Father, forgive them.” Forgive who? Herod, Pilate, Judas, the apostles who abandoned him, the solders who crucified Him. Luke 23:34, “Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.” The most Christlike thing you can do is to say: “Father, forgive them.” Who's that enemy you have? Who is it that has deeply hurt you? I can think of dozens of people who have deeply hurt me, especially pastors and pastor's wives. The Christian army is the only army in the world that kills its wounded.

God knows that I do not harbor hatred or bitterness against anyone. Life is too short to live with a burden of hatred dear reader. It has been rightly said that bitterness is the only container that dissolves itself. As I grow older, Lord willing, I choose to get better not bitter.

The world's most beautiful sunset is knowing at the end of each day that you have forgiven everyone, and you refuse to harbor bitterness toward anyone.

In some cases you will not be able to rectify, make restitution or reconcile with people you may have hurt in the past, simply because they have died or moved away and you wouldn't even know where to begin to contact them. God understands your circumstances friend. You can only do what you can humanly do. Make peace with those whom you can, and leave the rest in God's hands, committing your ways unto “he that keepeth thy soul” (Proverbs 24:12b).

Muslims Are Required To Sit Sideways On The Toilet

Matthew 11:28-30, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Respectfully, I once worked with a devout Muslim named Ed about 25 years ago. Ed would bring his carpet to work, lay it down on the ground in the hallway out of sight from coworkers, face Mecca in Saudi Arabi, and pray five times a day in cycle with the moon. That is why the Islamic symbol is a crescent moon on their flag. Muhammad worshipped the moon.

And let me say that my intent in writing this article is not to make fun of Muslims; but rather, to focus on the burden of false religion that weights men's souls down with rituals, superstition and fear. Religion wants to fit you with glasses, but the Lord wants to open your eyes. Islam is a burdensome prisonhouse of false religion that cannot produce the required new birth to enter into God's Kingdom (John 3:3).

Ed also used to bring a squirt bottle with him each time he went to relieve himself in the restroom, to cleanse in accordance with his false religious beliefs (i.e., the Hadith). While sharing a casual conversation one afternoon, I kindly asked Ed if he believed urinating on himself would send him to Hell. His energetic response was, “You got that right!”

You see, in their religion's holy book the Hadith, Muslims are taught that cleanliness is required to please Allah. They must wipe them self after using the restroom with their left hand. I am not making thus stuff up. Christianity offers true liberty from the power of sin and the Devil, but false religion will enslave you! 2nd Peter 2:19, “While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.” Jesus said the truth shall make you free (John 8:32).

Also, Muslims are prohibited from facing directly towards the Qibla (the direction of the city of Mecca), or having it directly behind them, while using the toilet. Instead, they must position themselves slightly to the right or left to avoid facing the city directly. Yes, you read right, Muslims are required in their false religion to sit sideways on the toilet. Which also means they evidently must also bring a compass with them into any toilet, to know which direction faces Mecca. Can you image such superstition? Islam is a religion of utter bondage and misery. Some Muslim scholars disagree about this required ritual when inside buildings, but it is absolutely mandatory when in the wilderness (outdoors). Dear reader, this is manmade superstition, bondage of the soul and body, not Biblical truth. I feel sorry for Muslims.

One day I shared the free grace Gospel with Ed, but I might as well have been talking to one of the machines we serviced. When I told Ed that I knew 100% I am going to Heaven, he was greatly offended. I still remember his response. He angrily said, “How arrogant! How prideful you are to say that you 'know' you are going to Heaven. You had better do your best and hope that you make it!” In Ed's corrupted mind, he has been taught since childhood that Heaven must be earned by good works, serving Allah, and following a bunch of burdensome rituals.

Whereas in Christianity, we believe that Jesus Christ has already paid our debt of sin, so that we can receive God's “free gift” of eternal life in a moment of time, and know for certain that our name is written in Heaven (Luke 10:20). This is eternal security! Please don't ever let anyone lie to you who says that there's no such thing as “eternal security.” Eternal life is eternal security! Muslims cannot grasp the beauty of knowing that we have eternal life as Christians, because their religion is steeped in works instead of faith.

False Religion is a Prisonhouse of Bondage

I am reminded of Jesus' precious words in Matthew 11:28-30, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

In sharp contrast to Islam, in God's simple plan of salvation you simply come by faith (taking God at His written Word) as you are, as a wretched guilty sinner (Romans 3:19-20); you receive Christ's sacrifice on Calvary's cross 2,000 years ago as full payment for your sins, believing that Jesus died, was buried, but then miraculously resurrected from the dead the third day. This is the only “gospel” according to 1st Corinthians 15:1-4 and Galatians 1:6-8.

When you place your trust in that Gospel (Good News, Glad Tidings) as a needy sinner, God reads your mind and works the supernatural miracle of the new birth (John 1:12-13). That is, you are born again by the Holy Spirit of God in response to your faith in the Word of God (1st Peter 1:23). Getting to Heaven is that simple, easy and free. Please don't let anybody inspired by Satan tell you something different dear reader. Islam is of the Devil.

And to add, the Quran (their Muslim bible) teaches that God has no son. That tells us right there that Islam is a counterfeit antichrist religion. The Quran explicitly states that Allah has neither taken a son nor has any partner in His kingdom. This is mentioned in several verses, including Surah Al-Isra (17:111) and Surah Al-Mu'minun (23:91). 1st John 2:22-23, “Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.” Enough said.

Why Wicked People Love False Religion

Kindly said, false religion will take you to Hell if you let it. The Bible says in Matthew 5:8, “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” I humbly believe that anyone who is pure (sincere) of heart will ultimately end up at Jesus' feet, a King James Bible, and a free grace Gospel. I also believe the reason why billions of people are victims of false religion is because they are not pure of heart. In other words, if you want to discover the truth you will find it. Titus 2:11, “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.” Many people follow a certain false religion because it vibes with their own agenda, low moral values, family tradition, superficial, et cetera.

The Bible teaches that people who follow false prophets love to have it so. Jeremiah 5:30-31, “A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” The Hebrew word Shammah for “wonderful” used here doesn't convey our modern splendid meaning; but rather it means, “ruin, that is, consternation: fear resulting from the awareness of danger.” The prophet Jeremiah is saying that he is frightened by something fearful (horrible) which has happened in the land. False prophets are preaching lies and God's people are gladly eating it up hook, line and sinker.

That's exactly what I have been saying for the past 24 years of my website ministry! The churches are full of lying incompetent pastors today who are wrong on repentance and the Gospel, damning the souls of men to Hell forever; and ungodly complicit churchgoers just continue to empower them to spread more lies. The truth is still being preached be a few faithful preachers today. So, the problem is not that churchgoers are innocently ignorant; but rather, they are entrapped by something in psychology called, 'Motivated Perception.' That is, they only see what they want to see. That is why only the pure in heart shall see God.

The man who believes nothing is better off than a man trapped in false religion, because the man who believes nothing is still searching for answers. I cannot warn you enough to avoid the Islam religion, as well as Judaism and other demonic manmade false religions. John 5:39, “Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.” Let God's Word ring true, but every man a liar.

Lordship Salvation Is A Million Times More Dangerous Than Halloween

Acts 15:24, “Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment.”

Every year in October all of the nuts come out of their closet, freaking out over Halloween. Although the holiday definitely has a Satanic origin, Americans do not celebrate it that way. 

Likewise, Jeremiah 10:1-5 talks about the Babylonians decorating their trees to worship them, which passage is often used by nuts to condemn having a Christmas tree in December.

And just for the sake of argument, tens of millions of Christians celebrate Easter every year, which holiday also has a Satanic origin. But we do not celebrate the goddess Eostre, we celebrate Jesus' resurrection from the dead the third day. 

I am tired of Christian believers getting all worked up into a frenzy on social media every October, condemning anyone who dares to take their children out to have a fun time Trick-Or-Treating, when they couldn't care less about the damnable heresy of Lordship Salvation, which is one million times more of a threat to your family. Dear reader, many of us as believers have our priorities wrong!

Furthermore, today's hundreds of modern English Bible revisions are toxic! I am sick and fed up and tired of meeting stupid (brutish) pastors who see no harm in the Devil's Bible perversions. I cannot warn you enough dear reader. See for yourself how the modern traitors who pervert God's inspired Word attack Jesus' deity...

I teach the Satanic origin of Halloween on my website ministry, because I want Christians to know the truth about where the holiday comes from, but that doesn't mean I think taking your kids out to have a fun night of going door-to-door for candy is a wicked thing. Jesus wasn't born in December, yet we celebrate His birthday in December. Biblically, we are not taught to celebrate Jesus' birth. We are taught in the observance of the Lord's Supper to remember what Christ did to redeem us on Calvary's cross 2,000 years ago.

If you feel led to cry aloud against the evils of celebrating Halloween, knock your socks off, but I won't join you. I'm going to spend my time exposing the deadly evils of Lordship Salvation, Misunderstood Repentance and the Devil's corrupt Bible revisions that are sending billions of people to Hell forever. Thank you for reading my ministry blog. To God alone be the glory!

America's Toxic Society

Jeremiah 3:20, “Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD.”

We have departed from the LORD in America. We are long over due for God's judgment upon the United States. Each year society descends lower and lower into pride, arrogance and the depth of wickedness. How low will we go? 

I love hearing and playing the pedal steel guitar. It has been my hobby and passion since 1992. Here is my most recent recording, 'Do They See Jesus In Me?' There was no steel guitar in the original recording from Hyles-Anderson College. I added my pedal steel guitar just for fun. I am playing a Rittenberry single neck 10 string guitar, which are made in Cookeville, Tennessee. I bought mine around 2011. I also have two old Sho-Bud Pro II double necks, but they are mechanically limited for my particular pedal and knee lever setup.

That being said, I love country music, but only if there's a pedal steel guitar. I watch the Grand Ole Opry sometimes on Roku. Sadly, ninety percent of the music today is garbage, not true country. I enjoy watching and hearing Tommy White play his pedal steel guitar. But as a born again Christian and a fundamentalist Bible preacher, I cannot help but notice the wickedness behind the entire entertainment industry. Nearly everyone (and I mean everyone) in the country music business is shamefully divorced and remarried to someone else.

The Disgusting 'Grand Ole Opry'

Last week I watched Keith Urban sing on the Opry, but I was disgusted knowing that his wife Nicole Kidman (who appears butt naked in numerous Hollywood films) filed for divorce recently because Keith cheated on her with his younger girlfriend. I turned off the Opry, not wanting to have any part of those ungodly people. Americans affirm anything nowadays, no matter how wicked and wrong it may be.

We've lost our innocence and shame in American culture. When I was a kid in the 1970s all alcoholic beverages were sold in brown paper bags to hide the booze from the children's peering eyes, to set a good example. Drinking booze was still considered a shameful habit 50 years ago. Today, we see stacked cases of booze in retail and grocery stores. There is no shame anymore. We've lost our innocence in American society.

I was watching Rhonda Vincent sing on the Grand Ole Opry recently. She sang a couple pretty songs, but the immodest dress she wore was hanging half off her body, with only one shoulder strap. I had a strong gut feeling that she was likely divorced, so I went to check online. Sure enough, she divorced her husband in 2024. What really made me disgusted was reading some toxic feminists' ungodly comments on social media:

Donna Jean: She was smart and got rid of him.

Jean H. Martin: She finally got tired of him in my opinion. She works more than anyone I have ever seen. You go Rhonda, you will find someone who appreciates you.

Instead of mourning over sin and divorce as we should, people celebrate it. Those are wicked women! Only an ungodly woman with a defiant rebellious heart against God would make such calloused comments in praise of divorce. No God-fearing woman would speak so foolishly. We should express sadness when there is a divorce, regardless of the reason(s), and not rejoice and bid Godspeed to the person who sinfully quits their marriage. We are living in a toxic American society today. Filing for divorce doesn't eliminate your problems, you are just exchanging one set of problems for another. No one can escape life's miseries.

Such wickedness is nothing new. Cosmopolitan magazine actually published an ungodly article titled: "How To Cheat On Your Husband Without Getting Caught" in 1965. Helen Gurley Brown (an avowed feminist) and her ungodly husband David Brown took over Cosmopolitan in 1965 and transformed it into a despicable evil magazine aimed at promoting modern single career women (feminism) to destabilize society. I speak to their utter shame!

No Extenuating Circumstances For Cold Blooded Murder

It disgusts me that Lindsay Clancy (who brutally murdered her three children) will likely not go to prison. There are hundreds of angry white females protesting outside the courthouse who are demanding her release. If that were a white father, he'd be sentenced to three life sentences in prison, no questions asked. Why should white women receive special privileges? White women want the legal and moral right to do whatever they want while suffering no consequences for their actions. If there is justice, Miss Clancy should go to prison! Biblically, she should be sentenced to death.

We've all noticed that every time someone is indicted for committing a heinous crime, a large percentage of them suddenly claim that they were a victim of childhood sexual abuse. That is what Christa Pike (now age 50) is claiming, the woman who survived a botched lethal injection in Tennessee this week. She is presently in a coma. Our nation has become so inept that we cannot even put somebody to death properly anymore. Unreal.

When she was only 18, just a brat, Christa and her boyfriend murdered a fellow 19-year-old classmate, smashing and saving a piece of the girl's skull as a souvenir. What monsters! Kindly said, it doesn't matter if she was sexually abused (which claim has yet to be proven), that does not excuse somebody from the crime of murder. I think it it sad and wicked that our incompetent government refuses to execute murderers as the Bible requires. Capital Punishment is almost non-existent in the United States today.

And then there is the shameful case of Casey Anthony in Florida, who clearly murdered her child (Caylee) in 1988. Her own attorney later said that she is guilty. Casey led investigators on a wild goose chase, laughing in their faces when her claim led them to nothing. Casey lied about her father, maliciously accusing him of sexual child abuse, which he vehemently denied publicly and in court. But the stupid jury bought the defense attorney's charade and Casey was acquitted of murdering her own daughter. Show me the men who've committed murder who were granted such pardons. Our justice system is broken!

Shameful College Campus Orgies

It's been reported in the news this week about female student Lucy Craig, who admitted to police in October of 2024 that she wilfully engaging in an all night orgy with several males (four groups of her and two males in threesomes). This is where Cosmopolitan's ungodly philosophies lead females. I wholeheartedly agree with this truthful article by Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, which is an indictment of our modern wicked American culture...

What the Cornell Rape Allegation Really Tells Us Is that Sexual Morality Is Stone Dead and that Men and Women Willingly Participate in Promiscuous Sexual Debauchery

Kindly said, this young perverse college female willingly went to a male fraternity, got high on booze and Ketamine (a horse tranquilizer), admittedly engaged in an all-night sex orgy with several males while being so intoxicated that she was seeing cross-eyed, out of her mind, and now she wants to burn those men by putting them into prison for the rest of their lives (for participating in a night of debauchery that she initiated). How were those males supposed to know that she didn't like what they were doing with her? Now she wants to play the role of being a victim. The moment she voluntarily engaged in an orgy, her credibility was gone.

Personally, I think the state's attorney general should prosecute all of them, but to our society's shame there is no law against sex orgies. This wicked country is a ticking moral timebomb! The entire moral base of society in America has been compromised and bottomed out, so that you simply cannot trust anybody anymore. This has been Satan's goal all along to corrupt and undermine our nation's families. Satan's minions have been hard at work—via the demonic entertainment industry, damnable false religion and corrupt churches, controlled social media platforms, public schools, and a corrupt court system—to kill, steal and destroy (John 10:10).

America Is Long Overdue For God's Judgment

I am not sure how much longer free speech will last in the United States, but as long as I have a voice for righteousness and truth I will take a Biblical stand against the sins of immodesty, sexual immorality, abortion and divorce. One day at a time. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

“I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever.” —Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President 1801-1809

I am a guilty sinner too, so I do not condemn anyone, but somebody needs to say: “This is wrong!” If we don't, think of how low society will go! John the Baptist took a Biblical stand against wicked Herod's adultery, which cost John his life. John wasn't condemning Herod and his brother's wife for their sins, he was telling the truth. Like me, John was a Bible preacher prepared by God to preach the truth. The truth offends many people. The old adage is true: The same sun that melts the wax hardens the clay.

God's judgment is coming upon this wicked nation, and I for one cannot wait. I am so sick and fed up and tired of our wicked American culture. Isaiah 13:11, “And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.”

Our country's founding fathers feared God...

“We have not government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” —U.S. President John Adams

“I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever.” —Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President 1801-1809

How much more abortion, homosexual marriage, college campus orgies, false bibles, false religion, counterfeit gospels, public nudity, greed, arrogance, blasphemy, unpunished crime, sexual immorality and divorce is God going to tolerate before He decides it is enough?

There is an increasing spirit of antagonization toward Bible believing Christians in the United States. The heathen mindset is that everyone should just love each other (affirm everyone) and not take offense toward homosexuals, effeminate males, masculine females, abortion, sexual depravity, et cetera. But what saith the Scripture? Proverbs 29:27, “An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.” As a Bible-believing Christian who fears God, I will NEVER accept the homosexual agenda. I will NEVER accept the “pro-death” abortion crowd.

I will NEVER stop preaching the Bible against ungodly pastor's wives who wears pants in public. We are living in a toxic society in America today where even pastor's wives have such low moral standards, that they see nothing wrong with wearing immodest attire (Proverbs 7:10). Shame! I'm tired of seeing Christian mothers wearing skintight Spandex while walking their babies. They either have no idea what that does to a man's mind, or else they couldn't care less. The Bible calls sexual lust a “war against the soul” (1st Peter 2:11). Yet, your average pastor and pastor's wife today defend a female's right to wear pants in public. Shame!

Dark days are ahead for the United States if the LORD tarries His return. China and Russia are just waiting for the next Joe Biden to run the White House into the ground, and we just might lose our nation to a nuclear attack. Just like smoke disorients bees, sin always makes a people comatose and vulnerable. We've got children running our nation into the ground. First the borders were wide open for 4 years, and now they are closed. What next?

Proverbs 14:34, “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.” Christians everywhere are rallying behind Donald Trump, who openly supports the homosexual agenda. I do not support Trump's Make America Great Again (MAGA); I never have and I never will. It's all bullcrap! Trump is a bold-faced liar who has failed to keep his promises. I am tired of professed Christians who wear rose-colored glasses, thinking Trump can do no wrong. The guy is a failure! No man is a true success who supports a wicked tongues-speaking false prophetess like Paula White.

We need to Make America Godly Again, and I don't see that ever happening! I think we are beyond the hope of any revivals bringing Americans back to God. As long as Satan controls the mainstream media, and stupid Americans sit in their living rooms glued to their televisions, believing whatever the media tells them to think, we are doomed to failure as a nation.

While He Was Yet Speaking

“While he was yet speaking” (Job 1:16a)
“While he was yet speaking” (Job 1:17a)
“While he was yet speaking” (Job 1:18a)

The old adage is true: When it rains it pours. The Morton salt company uses that adage. When my father used to drive us home from the Chicago United Mission at 34 S. Desplaines in downtown Chicago (now a parking lot), his rescue mission ministry, I'd see that adage on the large roof of the Morton salt factory as we passed by along the Kennedy expressway: “When it rains it pours.” That is so true of life as well. When bad things happen, they pile up!

Job was living for the Lord. One day God bragged to Satan about Job, opening a can of worms. Satan challenged God, alleging that Job only served God because everything was going good in Job's life, and that the Lord had placed a hedge around Job's life to protect him. So the Lord wagered Satan, making a bet that he couldn't shake Job's faith. God permitted the Devil to ruin Job's life utterly. First Job's oxen and donkeys were stolen, and their caregivers killed by invaders. And while one servant was bringing this bad news, “While he was yet speaking,” another servant brought more bad horrific news that Job's sheep were all gone, and the servants killed. And if that weren't devastating enough, “While he was yet speaking,” yet another servant came and told Job that his camels had been stolen, and their handlers murdered by thieves. And “While he was yet speaking,” another panicked servant ran to tell Job that a great wind had killed all of his ten children. That is the way life often is, just one negative thing after another, ruining our day.

The Devil murdered Job's servants and stole his livestock, murdered his ten children, took away his good health, and then Mrs. Job sinfully suggested that Job just get it over with by cursing God and dying. Essentially she told Job to eat worms and die! We must try to be empathetic by placing ourselves in her shoes. Mrs. Job had just lost ten of her precious children that she went through the jaws of death to bring into the world. Her oldest children must have already been young adults, because the Bible says: “his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house.” The oldest child had his own house. So these weren't all little children who died. A strong wind (likely a tornado) took the lives of all her children in one moment. Can you imagine?

I remember many years ago in a Chicago suburb that a female bus driver was blocking the train tracks with her bus. The gates were lowered onto the bus and the warnings lights and bells were sounding. The traffic light was red and there was a car in front of her. So she just sat there in indecision, like a fool, while a speeding commuter train plowed through the bus at 70 mph, ripping and spinning the bus off its frame and instantly killing seven teenagers on board and seriously injuring the others.

The tragic aftermath was gruesome for rescue workers who had to extricate the mutilated lifeless bodies from the wreckage. If I had been that driver, without hesitation I would have nailed the fuel pedal and pushed that vehicle in front of me into the intersection, even if it meant killing the driver to save the school children. Forgive my bias dear reader, but that is exactly why women shouldn't be bus drivers, because they are not decisive and aggressive like men are (with few exceptions). I read a stupid comment recently by author Christy Leigh Stewart where she said there would be no wars if women ruled the world. That is such an arrogant feminist thing to claim, and she is very wrong. Who do you think taught the terrorists? Their mothers! If women ruled the world it would be just as chaotic, because we are all wretched sinners.

Life is full of surprises. The adage is also true: Life is what happens while you're making big plans. Proverbs 27:2 warns not to boast about tomorrow, because none of us know what a day might bring. My next door neighbour in 2023 kindly handed me some fruit to taste from his Japanese fig tree growing in his yard. Today he is serving life in prison for a conviction of allegedly sexually assaulting a minor in 2024. He and his wife never saw that coming! I saw that fig tree today, in his backyard now overrun with weeds, and my heart broke for him and his family. Oh how sin thrills and then it kills! Sin fascinates and then it assassinates! This is exactly why my favorite Bible verse is Proverbs 4:23, “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Always be on guard!

There are no unimportant things. Little things often lead to big things. Dr. Bob Jones Sr. (1883-1968) rightly said, “Behind every tragedy of human character lies a long process of wicked thinking.” That is so very true. This is why I regularly listen to the inspired King James Bible, and I also listen to fundamentalist Bible preaching. Bible preaching helps us think and live right (Titus 1:3). The fools who scoff at hearing God's Word and Bible preaching, choosing instead to watch worldly television, are the ones who often end up in the hog pen of wickedness.

There have been a lot of drug-related celebrity deaths this year. Case in point is the death of Cindy Crawford's son Presley Gerber, age 27, which has been investigated as an overdose after Presley was found dead at a rehab facility in Los Angeles on September 20, 2026. He was rushed to a rehab center after he overdosed on illegal drugs. When I learn about tragic stories like this, I am often reminded of something that Jesus said in John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” The ungodly world seeks peace from substance abuse and immoral sex, but the inner peace that Jesus gives transcends this empty wicked world (1st John 5:19).

It's been said that God the Father only had one Son without sin, but He's never had a son without suffering. So true! Every saint is an adopted son of God (John 1:12; Romans 8:15). But Jesus is the only begotten (biological) Son of God. That is why it is blatant false doctrine when ALL of the modern English Bible revisions completely remove the word “begotten” from John 3:16. Jesus is not God's only son, He is the Father's only “begotten” Son, which makes Jesus God also. Jesus is almighty God (John 1-3, 14; 10:33; 1st Timothy 3:16; Revelation 1:8 - All citations only to inspired King James Bible).

John 16:33,“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” In Rocky Balboa (2006), Sylvester Stallone tells his real son (who plays in the movie):

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!

I like what Rocky told his son, because it is very true and practical advice. Pastor Jack Hyles used to warn us preachers boys: “Fellas, it's a jungle out there!” The world never meets anyone half way on anything.

This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue;
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

Hear hymn

When I was younger, I admit that I didn't know how to cope with this mean ungodly world, and I really still don't. People equal pain. I have been deeply hurt by countless religious people, by corrupt pastors and their carnal ungodly followers (minions). So, I emotionally withdrew into my shell like a box turtle, which many people do. I have never recovered to be honest. I hate this wicked world. I loathe today's lifeless pathetic churches. I loathe the hatred of the New IFB that is akin to deadly cancer. You can count me out! I'd rather just stay home and listen to sermons.

I was listening to Pastor Tom Cucuzza yesterday in a sermon about Eternal Security, who said that he doesn't want to live to be 80 years old; he wants to go home to be with Jesus. Pastor Cucuzza took the very words right out of my mouth. I want to go home, but in God's time. Philippians 1:21, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”

By God's grace, I am living a quite life the way that I like it. I mind my own business and stay busy laboring for Christ on my website and blog ministry. I enjoy playing my 5-string banjo and pedal steel guitar. I am listening to 'Grasshopper Sitting On A Sweet Potato Vine' as I work...lol. Gotta love the banjo! I have no local friends in Pensacola. My ministry friends are scattered throughout the world. I've been kicked out of numerous ungodly local churches for telling the truth (Galatians 4:16). God will be their only Judge (James 4:12: Romans 3:4; Galatians 6:7; Proverbs 24:12; Matthew 12:36). Proverbs 14:25, “A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.”

These Are Perilous Times In America

These are the “perilous times” foretold of in 2nd Timothy 3:1-7 when people have become rotten, selfish, dishonest, corrupt, scary and as wicked as can be. In the 1978 movie Superman, Lex Luthor's father was absolutely right, “People are no damn good.” The Bible warns in 2nd Timothy 3:5b that churchgoers will possess “a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof.” That “power” is a free grace Gospel according to Romans 1:16.

The “repent of your sins” garbage that is being preached in 95% of Baptist and other bad churches today is a counterfeit plan of salvation, which cannot produce the required new birth (John 3:3). Anyone who insists that you must “be willing to turn from your sins” (which toxic lie all Chick Tracts contain) to get to Heaven is denying the saving power of the Gospel. Instead they are wickedly adding human effort to Christ's finished work of redemption. We are saved by resting in what Jesus did through Calvary's cross 2,000 years ago to pay for our sins, and not because we commit to live a better life that has less sin (Hebrews 4:10-11).

Wicked incompetent pastors have perverted God's simple plan of salvation in a futile attempt to force carnal people to live holy lives, but corrupting the Gospel is not how to do that. The Gospel must not be altered or embellished in any way (1st Corinthians 15:1-6). The great need of the hour is preaching preachers! I cannot remember the last time I heard a Baptist pastor preach about Hell, or against sin by name, or contend for the faith. Today's pastors are a sad joke! They do not impress God one bit, I assure you. It is a pastor's duty to preach the truth. Damn the torpedoes! Talking to the average pastor is like talking to a mule.

That is why young people today refuse to attend church anymore, because today's pastors are afraid to preach against feminism, abortion, homosexuality, et cetera. God pity the preacher that the world don't hate! They are afraid to preach the truth that 911 was a blatant Inside Job! They are afraid (or to ignorant) to preach against the fraudulent Federal Reserve scam since 1913. They are afraid to rock the boat, offend their listeners, and be put outside the gate with Jesus.

They are afraid to expose President Donald Trump for the phony that he is, who lied his way into office in 2024. I do not support MAGA! You can keep your stupid bullcrap hat too. Trump hasn't kept his promise to lower inflation. All he has done is blame Joe Biden, claiming that he inherited the problem, so it is beyond his ability to fix it. That is totally unacceptable Mr. President! You made a solemn promise to the American people.

Financially hurting U.S. farmers and ranchers are still very angry at Trump for undermining their profits by imposing tariffs and opening new markets abroad. Charity should start at home. We never should have engaged in this unnecessary war with Iran, nor given hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. It is not the job of Americans to police the world. Tens of millions of Americans need dental care but cannot afford it. Homelessness is getting worse every year.

I Come From The Future: I Bring Bad News!

Rough times are ahead for the American people. The wage gap between the rich and the poor will continue to widen. God only knows the evil that will ensue when the wicked Democrats retake the White House in 2029 or 2033. All the homosexual DEI (diversity, equality and inclusion) junk is coming back! The bottom will fall out spiritually as the wicked retake the government and society. Proverbs 28:28, “When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase.”

We cannot stop the Devil from killing, stealing and destroying (John 10:10). Yet, the Bible tells us in 1st John 4:4-6, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.” I love that! The indwelling Holy Spirit inside every believer is GREATER that the Devil who is at work corrupting the world.

The heathen world hears the world, giving regard to their ungodly advice (John 15:19); but those who are led by the Spirit of God listen to truth-tellers who preach the inspired Word of God. 1st Corinthians 1:18b says that “the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” I have shared the Gospel with countless thousands of people throughout my lifetime. I have handed people Gospel tracts, just to watch them literally walk 10 feet and toss the tract into a garbage pail. Woe unto those fools at the Great White Throne of Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15).

I'm sure that at some time in all of our lives we have been able to relate to Job's calamity, whom the Bible says was bombarded with one negative report after another, “While he was yet speaking” (Job 1:16a). And then again in verse 17, and again in verse 18. When it rains, it pours! I have been there friend, where things just kept getting worse, more crap on the pile.

Don't Worry Be Happy In The Lord 

At those bitter times in life all we can do is look up to our blessed Savior like the psalmist, who cried out to God in Psalm 6:2-6, “Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed. My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long? Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake. For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks? I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.”

Being a Christian doesn't make life any easer, but it does make life better knowing that we can bring our every burden to the Lord in prayer and leave it there. Philippians 4:6-7, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” As the great contemporary philosopher Bobby McFerrin said in 1988, “Don't Worry Be Happy.”

The Joy Of The Lord Is Your Strength

Nehemiah 8:10, “Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” I do not believe that this verse is teaching that God gives us His joy to be strong; but rather, our strength comes from knowing that God is joyful in Heaven. I find great peace in knowing that God is at perfect peace. I find great comfort in knowing that nothing ever rattles God's cage, so to speak; nothing every occurs to Him. God doesn't need a secretary to handle his complex schedule. Everything's alright in my Father's house!

We read in Revelation 20:12b that “the books were opened,” but those books aren't for God. They are for the damned to see a record of their sins, from which “works” they will be judged. God doesn't ever remember anything; He is omniscient (all knowing). Nehemiah said the joy of the Lord is your strength. In other words, if God is happy you will also be happy. If God is pleased, so am I. If God is calm, then so am I. I do not know what tomorrow holds, which is why I tend to worry. But my heavenly Father know what tomorrows holds.

I admit that I am a worrier. That is why I cautiously try to live my life in such a way, that I avoid creating unpleasant situations where I would need to worry more than I already am tempted to do. There's already enough stuff to worry about without creating more problems. Right? I learned that you cannot trust God and worry at the same time. The moment we start having faith in God, our worries begin to subside. When we put our faith in our blessed Savior, life's worries start to fade in comparison to the great hope of eternal life. Always remember,

UNSHAKABLE FAITH COMES FROM HAVING OUR FAITH SHAKEN.

While one servant was giving Job the horrible news that his oxen and asses had been stolen and men killed, “While he was yet speaking” another servant came to bring more bad news that his sheep were gone and workers dead; and then “While he was yet speaking” yet another servant came to tell Job that all of his camels were gone and those servants killed; and then “While he was yet speaking” still another distraught t servant ran in, informing Job that all of his ten children were dead. Can you image how Job felt? To say that he felt overwhelmed would be the understatement of that century.

Dear reader, “Have faith in God” (Mark 11:22b). Those are Jesus' words, not mine. When life doesn't give you a break, and everything seems to be going wrong, just hang in there for God, so that you may exclaim with the dear saint of God in Job 13:15, “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.”

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
