Reminder: Christ is King

Christ is King

In the wake of the recent tumultuous events surrounding former President Donald Trump's rally in Pennsylvania, one thing has become abundantly clear: Christ is still King, and He's probably shaking His head in bewilderment at the chaos unfolding below.

As shots rang out and Secret Service agents performed their best rugby tackle impressions, Jesus was reportedly overheard muttering, "I leave you guys alone for two millennia, and this is what happens?" The Almighty's PR team quickly issued a statement reminding everyone that "turn the other cheek" was not meant to be interpreted as "duck and cover."

Meanwhile, celestial sources confirm that St. Peter has been frantically updating his guest list, unsure whether to prepare for a high-profile arrival or not. The pearly gates have reportedly been given an extra polish, just in case.

In a surprising twist, it seems the only person not surprised by the day's events was Trump himself, who was heard asking if he could "get his shoes" before being whisked away to safety. Apparently, even in the face of danger, good footwear remains a top priority.

As the nation grapples with this latest political curveball, we can all take comfort in knowing that no matter how chaotic things get down here, the Big Guy upstairs is still in charge – and He's probably wishing He'd installed a cosmic mute button right about now.

*note: we do not promote nor endorse Open Theism. We do acknowledge the use of anthropomorphic language in the Bible and believe that, due to the vantage point of its writers, that God may appear to change His mind. However, we consider it to be an attempt to distinguish between His decretive and permissive will, though ultimately His decrees will come to pass.

April Atheists Day

Pictured: logo of the National Atheist Party (unaffiliated) April Fools’ Day is a well-known tradition of pranking and joking around with friends and family. But did you know that it is also a holiday for atheists? That’s right, every year on April 1st, atheists celebrate their disbelief in God and mock the religious beliefs of others. According to some historians, April Fools’ Day originated from the medieval practice of changing the calendar from the Julian to the Gregorian system, which moved the start of the new year from March 25th to January 1st. Those who refused to accept the change or were unaware of it were called “April fools” and ridiculed by others. Some atheists claim that this date has now become a symbolic representation of their rejection of the Christian faith and its calendar. May atheists now hold that April Fools’ Day has become a day of celebration and liberation from the tyranny and oppression of religion. They argue that religion is based on superstit...

Free-Will Theists Shocked, Reformed Believers Pleased, the Vatican Silent In a shocking discovery, archaeologists have unearthed the remains of a 1000-year-old mummified alien in a remote cave in Peru. The alien, which has a humanoid appearance but with four arms and two heads, was found clutching a copy of Augustinian writingson the free choice of the will, a theological treatise that argues for the doctrine of predestination and the total depravity of human nature. The find has sparked a heated debate among religious scholars and conspiracy theorists, who have different interpretations of the alien's identity and motives. Some believe that the alien was a devout follower of Augustine, who came to Earth to spread his teachings and convert the natives. Others claim that the alien was a heretic, who corrupted Augustine's writings and used them to justify his evil deeds. Still others suggest that the alien was a hoax, planted by anti-Calvinists to discredit the Reformed tradition...
