Jon Steingard, the frontman of the Christian rock band Hawk Nelson, has told fans that he ‘no longer believes in God’ in a lengthy Instagram post about his faith.

Today’s story shows the terrible damage that can be caused by telling someone who ‘said the Sinner’s Prayer’ that they just became saved, because guess what? The ‘sinner’s prayer’ saves no one, never did and never will. It is the shed blood of Jesus Christ, that made a payment for your sins on the cross at Calvary, that when you receive it by faith pays your sin debt to God. Sinners need a Saviour, and what are we saved from? From having to go the Hell for eternity, that’s exactly what salvation is.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.” Romans 3:23-26 (KJB)

Why does so much of Christian rock music sound like the world? Because there is a very high percentage of people performing that ‘said the sinner’s prayer’ or were raised in a “christian family” and they grew up doing what everyone did because everyone did it. That is not how people actually get saved. These are not false converts, these are people who have never been converted biblically, and as such they fall away. We have brought you many stories over the years of Christian rock singers renouncing the faith they never had in the first place.

“Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.” Luke 8:12,13 (KJB)

Katy Perry was raised in a Christian home, so called, and used to sing at youth camp for Jesus. Now she sings for Satan, is a multimillionaire, and wouldn’t change a thing. Amy Grant was the premier Christian artist in the 1980’s and ’90’s, now she performs at lesbian weddings and has a huge LGBTQ+ fan base. What happened? When you look behind the scenes, what’s missing is their first coming to the understanding that they are sinners who deserve Hell, and that Jesus paid it all on the cross for them, personally and individually.

“And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:39-43 (KJB)

Jesus doesn’t want your heart if you’re lost, the bible says it’s wicked and deceitful. Jesus wants you to decide for yourself what you believe about Him to be true, and then to act on that belief. Both thieves on the cross spit in Jesus’ face, both of them mocked Him equally, so what happened? One of them repented of that disbelief in Jesus, and Jesus took him at his word and saved him. He didn’t repent of his sins, he repented of his disbelief. If Jon Steingard had done that, he likely would not be in the position he is in right now. Of course, if he had done that, he likely wouldn’t have been a frontman for a “christian rock’ band, either.

Christian rock frontman Jon Steingard says he “no longer believes in God” surprising no one

FROM NME: The Canadian musician joined the Ontario band in 2004, and has been a part of the group’s last seven studio albums — the most recent being 2018’s ‘Miracles’. Steingard addressed his faith in an Instagram post last week, writing in the caption that he’d been “terrified” at the prospect of penning the statement.

“But it feels like it’s time for me to be honest,” he wrote. “I hope this is not the end of the conversation, but the beginning. I hope this is encouraging to people who might feel the same but are as afraid to speak as I am. I want to be open. I want to be transparent with you all – and also open to having my heart changed in the future.”

In the post itself, Steingard reflected on his Christian upbringing and “having the word ‘Christian’ in front of most of the things in my life” before saying: “I am now finding that I no longer believe in God.”

“I still find myself wanting to soften that statement by wording it differently or less specifically — but it wouldn’t be as true,” Steingard continued. “The process of getting to that sentence has been several years in the making.”

In regards to his fronting Hawk Nelson, Steingard wrote: “If you’re someone who follows me because of Hawk Nelson, and my involvement in Christian music, you are probably thinking, ‘Wait — were you lying to me the whole time? Were you just pretending to be a Christian? What about all those songs you wrote? Did you mean those?’

“The short answer is that I was not lying. I did believe those things at the time. I may have been pulling on the threads of the sweater, but there was still some sweater left back then.” Steingard also suggested that he will be leaving Hawk Nelson in the future. “While I know I can no longer stand on stage and in good conscience sing songs like ‘Drops in the Ocean’, I no longer fear losing my place in Christian music. I know this means giving it up voluntarily.”

The frontman later added: “I’m open to the idea that God is there. I’d prefer if he was. I suspect if he is there, he is very different than what I was taught.” READ MORE

Turning Point USA Reveals ‘Counter-Reformation Agenda’ With Plans To Infiltrate The Christian Church To Bring In A Roman Catholic Nationalism Hybrid

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Wake up, pastors, Turning Point USA is now a recruitment arm of the Roman Catholic Church, and they’re coming looking for sheep, your sheep

First and foremost, this article is aimed at pastors of Bible believing churches all across America, with an urgent message you would do well to heed. Do not allow Turning Point USA entrance into your churches, for any reason at any time. Three and a half months after the death of Charlie Kirk, TPUSA has completely flipped itself around to act as the recruiting arm of the Roman Catholic Church. They are looking for sheep, don’t let them take yours.

“Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.” Acts 20:30,31 (KJB)

I never spent much time watching Charlie Kirk when he visited various college campuses, but tuning in from time to time, I noticed two things. One, he was a fiery Christian Nationalist and a ‘true believer’ in the 7 Mountains Mandate of the New Apostolic Reformation. Second, when he spoke about salvation in Jesus Christ, for the most part I agreed with what he said and I believe he was a saved man. But while he lived, Charlie had many, many people pulling him in a variety of different directions, all subtly angling for a ‘piece of the pie’ that is the $100+ million empire known as Turning Point USA. Not only is it fabulously wealthy, TPUSA holds tremendous sway and influence in the most coveted 18-35 age demographic. Anyone who could wrest control of TPUSA out of Charlies hands would have incredible riches and powers of persuasion in the palm of their hands. I believe that someone killed Charlie for that exact reason, and no, I am not talking about Tyler James Robinson. But that’s a story, and most likely a Podcast, for another day.

So now Charlie Kirk is dead, and the jackals are fighting each other to the death for his empire, and what we see bubbling up in the aftermath is not only disturbing, it is terrifying. After watching the Memorial Service that was held back in September, and AmFest that was held last week, one thing stands out above all the noise. TPUSA has gone from being a nominal Christian organization to a loud, out and proud Roman Catholic one. If there was any doubt in your mind, it’s taken away each and every time TPUSA executive Jack Posobiec raises the Rosary over ten of thousands of their followers, and claims them for the Vatican. If you ever read Foxes Book of Martyrs or the Alberto comic book series, then you know exactly what that all means.

Watch Jack Posobiec claim followers for Rome

Flashing lights designed to distract your attention, piercing shards of sound sent to deaden your hearing, and above it all the Roman Catholic Rosary lifted up high, an unspoken command for all to bow to Rome. If you have any spiritual discernment, this is what you see. 

Erika Kirk remarked multiple times during AmFest 2025 that TPUSA is now embedded in over 8,000 American churches, churches that have agreed to bring the TPUSA brand of “Christianity” into their congregations, something that I am telling you here and now is fervent Roman Catholicism. Fox News reports “We have 8,000 churches in our network at TPUSA Faith. We’ve seen almost 1,000% growth across all social media platforms. And get this. We’ve had over 200,000 people sign up to become a part of TPUSA Faith.” What is TPUSA Faith? It’s the Roman Catholic Church wearing Laodicean Christian clothing. Pastors, listen to me now, bar the doors and don’t let them in. If they’re already there, kick them out.

Are there saved Christians in the Roman Catholic Church? I am quite sure there are. But Roman Catholicism is not Christian, does not teach Bible doctrine, and the vast majority of “good Catholics” die and go to Hell because they die unsaved. I was a born into the Roman Catholic church, baptized as a baby, confirmed in the 5th grade, made an altar boy for 3 years, and then spent 4 years under heavy Franciscan and Jesuit indoctrination before getting saved on my 30th birthday. This is not an “anti-Catholic” article, this is a warning to pastors all across America to reject the wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing that is, now, Turning Point USA. Wake up, the wolf is at the door and he’s taking your sheep.

If You’ve Ever Wondered Why So Many Laodicean Churches Have The Same Holiday-Themed Messages It’s Because They’re Buying Prepackaged Sermons

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

There’s a reason why all the mega churches at Christmas time all seem to have the same messages, they’re buying prepackaged Laodicean ‘sermon kits’ from apostates

Have you ever wondered why so many of the ‘big churches’ all kind of look the same, the pastors all kind of dress the same, and their sermon series absolutely all look and sound the same? What if I told you that these Laodicean pulpit pretenders, far from being Bible preachers, are buying their sermons, outlines, stage decorations and everything else they need in prepackaged kits made available from people like Andy Stanley, Craig Rochelle, Rick Warren and a few others.

“For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.” Acts 20:29 (KJB)

Whenever I go on YouTube, I see videos of church after church offering what looks like the exact same sermon series entitled ‘Christmas At The Movies’, where in a desperate attempt to stay relevant, they preach messages on Hollywood movies where they attempt to pull the gospel out of films like ‘Diehard’, ‘Elf’, and many others. These churches put on a lavish spectacle that draws them in by the hundreds of thousands, entertaining them with the world followed by a lukewarm ‘gospel invitation’ at the end. This is not a church service, this is worldly entertainment, and the worst part, it’s not even original, the pastors are purchasing premade sermon kits. So why do I write this on Christmas Eve? For a few reasons.

1). It trains people to want entertainment instead of sound doctrine

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4 (KJB)

Paul says that in the last days before the Rapture of the Church, Bible preaching and doctrine would be missing from the pulpits, and that people would want to have their ears tickled instead. These Laodicean fake preachers are only too happy to step and fill the void with garish end times spectacles that look like the world and sound like the world.

2). It breeds shallow and selective teaching instead of giving you the whole counsel of God

“For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.” Acts 20:27-30 (KJB)

While it makes for an occasionally interesting illustration, attempting to ‘find the gospel’ in the movies and in secular culture, it brings in not only Hollywood but with it a relative and humanist perspective creating something that is weak, deceptive and ultimately not the gospel once delivered to the saints. For example, there may be some unintentional gospel references in a movie like ‘Diehard’, which then leads people to go and watch ‘Diehard’, where they will be exposed to filthy language, a variety of sins and bad behavior, with the Name of the Lord constantly taken in vain.

3). It commercializes the pulpit

“And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:3 (KJB)

Prepackaged series are usually a product—graphics kits, scripts, small-group material, merch, and licensing which turns the church into a brand. It crosses the line from ministry to marketing. If people applaud when the pastor comes out, that’s not preaching that’s a production.

In conclusion, think about the following. If you attend one of these churches, are you satisfied knowing that everything coming out of the preacher’s mouth he got, not from personal study time in his Bible, but from a marketing company? People who do that are not preachers in the biblical sense, they are actors following a script that they purchased with money to get a desired reaction from you. This is not finding the gospel in Hollywood, this is giving you Hollywood instead of the gospel.

Find yourself a small, old-fashioned church that believes the King James Bible, sings the old hymns of Zion from a handheld paper hymnal, and the pastor preaches doctrinal truth from a wooden pulpit. The Church was never meant to be the place for pizza parties and movie nights, it was never meant to provide programs to keep your kids busy. The Church was created by the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross, to preach and teach the words of God as He has preserved them, for the salvation of lost souls and the building up of the body of Christ. Find yourself a church like that.

ICE Documents Reveal Plans For Constructing ‘Human Warehouses’ In Virginia, Texas, Louisiana, Arizona, Georgia and Missouri To Hold Illegal Immigrants

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Trump administration is seeking contractors to help it overhaul the United States’ immigrant detention system in a plan that includes renovating industrial warehouses to hold more than 80,000 immigrant detainees at a time

Question: if you wanted to construct concentration camps all across America, but didn’t want people to think you were building such camps, how could you do it openly and publicly without arousing undue suspicion? You would say that these camps were being built to hold illegal immigrants that were being deported, and the crowd goes wild. But after you’ve deported a finite number of people, what would then become with the camps you spent billions of dollars to build? You would have to use them for something. Hmm, let me think for a minute, don’t tell me, I’ll get it.

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9 (KJB)

Don’t get me wrong, like most of you, I am absolutely in favor of removing anyone and everyone who entered into our sovereign nation illegally, as long as it’s done as humanely as possible. That said, just about any student of 20th century history knows that when Adolf Hitler began using old military bases to house political dissidents, and that light bulb went off over his head, he knew right away he was onto something that could be easily sold to a gullible public. How about it, America, feeling gullible? If so, please applaud President Trump and his soon-coming concentration camps immigrant warehouses.

“First they came for the Communists, And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me.”

ICE documents reveal plan to hold 80,000 immigrants in warehouses

FROM THE WASHINGTON POST: Rather than shuttling detainees around the country to wherever detention space is available, as happens now, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement aims to speed up deportations by establishing a deliberate feeder system, the document says. Newly arrested detainees would be booked into processing sites for a few weeks before being funneled into one of seven large-scale warehouses holding 5,000 to 10,000 people each, where they would be staged for deportation.

The large warehouses would be located close to major logistics hubs in Virginia, Texas, Louisiana, Arizona, Georgia and Missouri. Sixteen smaller warehouses would hold up to 1,500 people each.

The draft solicitation is not final and is subject to changes. ICE plans to share it with private detention companies this week to gauge interest and refine the plan, according to an internal email reviewed by The Post. A formal request for bids could follow soon after that.

Tricia McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security, said she “cannot confirm” The Post’s reporting and declined to answer questions about the warehouse plan.

NBC and Bloomberg News previously reported on ICE’s internal discussions about using warehouses as detention centers. The full scope of the project, the locations of the facilities and other details contained in the solicitation have not been previously disclosed or reported.

The warehouse plan would be the next step in President Donald Trump’s campaign to detain and deport millions of immigrants, which began with a scramble to expand the nation’s immigrant detention system, the largest in the world. Armed with $45 billion Congress set aside for locking up immigrants, his administration this year revived dormant prisons, repurposed sections of military bases and partnered with Republican governors to build immigrant tent encampments in remote regions.

The administration has deported more than 579,000 people this year, border czar Tom Homan said earlier this month on the social media platform X. The new facilities will “maximize efficiency, minimize costs, shorten processing times, limit lengths of stay, accelerate the removal process and promote the safety, dignity and respect for all in ICE custody,” the solicitation said.

“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” ICE acting director Todd M. Lyons said at a border security conference in April, according to the Arizona Mirror. The administration’s goal, he said, was to deport immigrants as efficiently as Amazon moves packages: “Like Prime, but with human beings.” READ MORE
