Today, David Fiorazo looks at the basics of critical race theory and why accusations of white supremacy and systemic racism in America are lies based on propaganda and hijacked history.

Critical race theory is a worldly philosophy that misleads the Church and distorts the Gospel of Jesus Christ. CRT is an “empty and hollow philosophy” of deconstruction,

Saiko Woods: What’s Happening to America – and What Now?

by Stand Up For The Truth | Nov 9, 2020 | American Church, Christianity, Culture & Morality, Leadership, Podcast, Politics and Faith, Progressive Christianity | 0 |

We discuss the Christian church in America, the need for more patriot pastors, Christians who avoid politics; voter fraud, election results; Biden got more votes than Obama?

First, this is about worldview! It’s a spiritual battle, demonic at its core. And Christians must be prepared for what is to come. We also ask, whatever happened to the media Covid panic, Hunter Biden, and Russian interference in our elections?

Sin, Racism, BLM, Lawlessness: Repentance Matters

by David Fiorazo | Jul 1, 2020 | American History, Christian Church, Culture & Morality, Government, Progressive Christianity, Social Justice | 0 |

How should Christians respond to all that’s happening in our country today? Does the Bible have anything to say about race, social justice, being unequally yoked with unbelievers, endorsing things that contradict Scripture? We want to be compassionate, loving and empathetic. That’s good. But too many well-meaning people immediately jump on social justice bandwagons not knowing where those wagons started and where they will lead. Christian friend, be careful who you align yourself with because it sends mixed messages to an already confused world.

Mary Danielsen: The Residual Effect of the Emergent Church

by Stand Up For The Truth | Feb 4, 2020 | American Church, Apostacy, Emergent Church, Humanism, Podcast, Progressive Christianity, Social Justice | 0 |

Whatever happened to the Emergent or ’emerging’ church? We sure don’t hear much about it anymore, and there are reasons for that. But the truth is the cancer of this deception and its rotten fruit – including a rejection of the deity of Jesus Christ, rebellion against God’s word and moral absolutes, social justice, liberalism, and identity politics – has infected Christian churches across America.

It is quite clearly and simply a war against the Truth. Today we revisit some church history and review this movement as well as the dangerous, unbiblical road many Christians are following today: a path leading away from God’s Word. TODAY’S GUEST is author and watch-woman on the wall, Mary Danielsen.

Will Pro-Life Democrats Keep Voting For Abortion?

by David Fiorazo | Jan 29, 2020 | Abortion, Christianity, Culture & Morality, Politics and Faith, Progressive Christianity | 0 |

A woman named Kristen Day, asked the openly homosexual mayor if the Democrat Party is inclusive and diverse enough to also include those who want to protect babies in the womb. He basically answers her by affirming his “pro-choice” position and the Democrat platform: abortion should be available up to nine months of pregnancy and that the government should pay for it.

Julaine Appling: Free, Fair Elections from WI to D.C.

We kick off another year with a church and country that are divided over so many issues. Religion and politics continue to be lightening rods of debate across the nation, but to say Christians should keep our faith behind closed doors or out of politics is both naive and misguided.

For too long, too many people think of abortion as merely a “political” or a “social” issue”. Some suggest it only falls under the category of privacy: a woman’s medical decision “between her and her Doctor”. But the reality is we are talking about life or death for an innocent baby created by God in His image. Wisconsin Right to Life is one of the most prestigious, efficient pro-life organizations in our nation. Mike and David are joined by Heather Weininger, executive director of Wisconsin Right to Life to discuss pro-life issues as well as the September 24 Green Bay dinner and reception for the Veritas Society.

Friendship Over Truth?

by Stand Up For The Truth | Aug 29, 2019 | American Church, Apologetics, Beliefs, Christian Church, Church Leadership, Culture & Morality, Entertainment, False Teaching, Government, Podcast, Politics and Faith, Progressive Christianity | 0 |

There’s an old saying, “politics makes strange bedfellows,” but these days professing Christianity, government, and worldliness also seem to be aligning more often, developing very strange partnerships. We’ve seen so-called “Celebrity pastors” often embrace Hollywood stars or elite sports celebrities who claim to be Christians, but they often do so without a modicum of discernment or wisdom, causing more confusion in a a church that is confused enough already.

In our final segment today we look at a resolution passed by the Democratic Party that applauds “non-religious Americans” while disdaining Christian churchgoers. Our guest today is Don Veinot of Midwest Christian Outreach. He joins Mike and David to discuss how friendship seems to be more important than truth to a growing number of Christian leaders, and how heresy is on the rise in the church itself.

The Church in America Must Be the Church!

by David Fiorazo | Jan 15, 2021 | American Church, Church Leadership, COVID 19, Pastor's Perspective, Religious Freedom | 0 |

As we saw in 2020, forces of darkness have been hard at work. The enemy – both human and demonic – coming against us hard. It is stunning, the speed with which our country, culture, freedoms, and very way of life have been attacked and dismantled!

If there was ever a time in American history that the Christian Church needs to be an essential, gospel-preaching, influential, faith-building, fruit-bearing, saint-equipping church, it’s now.

Jay Seegert: Christian Youth are Leaving the Faith; Why?

by Stand Up For The Truth | Jan 11, 2021 | American Church, Christianity, Culture & Morality, Education, Government, Podcast, Public Schools | 0 |

An alarmingly high percentage of youth are walking away from their faith today. We now know it is at much younger ages when children begin to doubt what they have learned. Many studies have been done and the evidence is clear. What are we doing wrong as Christian parents and the church in general?
