SCRIPTURE AND AMERICA’S HOPE |
Aggressive Muslim political activity at play throughout the world, the U.S.A., and Oklahoma, provides the appearance of an impending cultural and political capture of the globe and the militant enforcement of sharia law which would follow.
These developments are a call for the church to become engaged in the public advocacy of the Christian governmental policy which has provided freedom and dignity to the American people.
Because of the media’s undo focus on the secular, the Christian not steeped in Biblical theology is inclined to think history will bend to the political left or to the political prison of Islam so that participation on the realm of culture, government, and politics is futile.
It is comforting to know that the epistemological foundation of human ontology and anthropology is found only in the first chapter of the book of Genesis.
From there, the trajectory of history is unveiled including the future of the nations and their roots in Abraham. Abraham was anointed the father of both the nations and the church. This is known by reading the book of Genesis and, for clarity, the Apostle Paul affirms Abraham’s place among the nations of the world in the fourth chapter of the book of Romans. |
There is no doubt from simply reading the first three chapters of Genesis that the Kingdom of God will be established on the earth. The inheritance of the righteous of every square inch of the planet is assured not only in the Hebrew Scripture (the Old Testament) but in the closing of the cannon (the Greek New Testament).
In a study of the world’s sociological movement, University of London professor Eric Kauffman published (2010) a book titled, Shall the Religious Inherit the Earth?
I don’t think it would be an over-simplification of his 300-page book to state that his research is credibly summarized by the last sentence of the book:
The religious shall inherit the earth. |
The secular movements we have endured during and since the “enlightenment” have , Kauffman concludes, failed to provide anything but a dry atheism and an uninspiring secularism void of anything mankind finds inspiring.
A few pages before he makes this closing statement, he writes:
We inhabit a period of ideological exhaustion. The great secular religions, with their utopian dreams, have lost their allure.
In 2002, Dr. Philip Jenkins, Distinguished Professor of History and Religious Studies at Penn State University, published his research in his book, The Next Christendom. There he concludes it is reasonable to expect Christianity to continue to expand and flourish on the earth, dominating all other religions.
He writes:
Any likely Muslim growth through immigration will be far exceeded by the continuing Christian influx from Africa, Asia, and, above all, Latin America. What we are seeing is how mass immigration ensured that a Christian country has become an even more Christian country. |
Jenkins’ closing statement in his book reads:
Whether we look backward or forward in history, we can see that time and again, Christianity demonstrates a breathtaking ability to transform weakness into strength.

Last Friday night, Dr. Ben Carson made a visit to the Embassy Suites in Norman, Oklahoma. He spoke of his boyhood, the value of education and the transforming impact of reading books. He spoke in particular of the importance of rejecting the impoverished ideology of Karl Marx and embracing the Christian foundations which made the nation great.
Jane and I had the privilege of spending a considerable amount of time with his wife, Candi. It was a visit made possible by Brian and Marla Hill (Cedar Gate Ministries). I was quite encouraged by her energetic and lively Christian spirit. She shares a number of things in common with Jane and me. Most prominent is her love for the Lord Jesus! |
The Carsons are among the many thousands of bright lights which (in addition to our many Biblical promises) give us hope for America’s Christian future. |
DR EVERETT PIPER from Sunday, AUGUST 9, 2026
TUCKER CARLSON AND J.D. HALL ARE LYING ABOUT ISLAM |
In a recent episode of his podcast, titled “Origins of Christian Zionism, How It Corrupted American Christianity and Why It’s Finally Collapsing,” Tucker Carlson featured J.D. Hall as his guest and expert.
In fact, Mr. Carlson introduced Mr. Hall by describing him as “a leading voice on issues of faith, culture, and free speech [as well as someone] known for his unapologetic defense of biblical orthodoxy and criticism of institutional corruption within the church.”
Aside from Mr. Carlson’s effusive praise of Mr. Hall as the consummate “theologian,” what more should we know of him?
WHO EXACTLY IS HE? WELL, IN SHORT, MR. HALL IS . . .
. . . a defrocked Baptist minister who has been accused of drug addiction, domestic violence, assault with a weapon, and embezzlement of church funds.
IN ADDITION TO ALL THIS . . .
Mr. Hall has also been cited for false claims in his writing and speaking, and he holds no terminal degrees in anything, let alone theology. |
So, why in the world would Tucker Carlson feature such an academically unqualified and morally disreputable man on his show?
The answer seems quite simple. Carlson clearly wanted to continue grinding his ax against the Jews and pro-Israel Christians while at the same time elevating Islam as being better than both.
HERE'S THE PROOF
J.D. Hall dove-tailed into a peculiar diatribe of praising Muslims for being “very kind” to Christianity.
Very kind to Christians? What in the world is Mr. Hall talking about?
Anyone with a fifth-grade education should know that Islam’s conquest of Christendom was anything but “kind” and that arguing otherwise is just astoundingly dumb. Here are just a few examples to prove the point.
FIRST, Mr. Hall specifically claims that Islam has never imposed a tax on churches. This is not true.
Surah 9:29 in the Qur'an specifically mandates that a poll tax called the “jizya” be imposed on all Christians living in a Muslim country. During the Ottoman Empire, for example, all non-Muslims across Southern Europe, Asia Minor, and the Middle East were required to pay this tax while standing in front of a seated overlord with their head bowed.
This was a sign of submission and humiliation.
In addition, a tax, called the kharja, was imposed on all private property held by Christians. This was a burden often so overwhelming that it led to foreclosure, with the Christian’s property being confiscated and redistributed to Muslims as the result. Mr. Hall's claim of no taxes on “the Church” is so bewildering, one must wonder if he is a paid apologist for the Muslim faith. SECOND, there is the doctrine of “dhimmitude,” which declares all Christians are legally and socially inferior to all Muslims.
In brief, dhimmitude lays out strict conditions whereby followers of Christ are only permitted to live in a Muslim country if they submit to a list of humiliating conditions such as being forbidden from repairing their churches, ringing church bells, displaying crosses, and being required to wear distinctive clothing to signify their disparaged status.
This, apparently, is the kind of Muslim behavior that J.D. Hall and Tucker Carlson want you to believe is “very kind.” |
THIRD, there is the issue of legal inequality of all non-Muslims who live in Muslim countries. Sharia law, for example, makes the testimony of a Christian against a Muslim inadmissible in an Islamic court. Therefore, a Muslim committing a crime against a Christian is rarely, if ever, subject to legal penalty while a Christian accused of a crime against a Muslim often faces flogging, immediate imprisonment, and even death.
HOW "KIND" DO MR. HALL AND MR. CARLSON THINK THIS IS? LAST, but certainly not least, is the century-and-a-half-old genocide and enslavement of Christians across the civilized world.
The record of the Ottoman Empire alone shows that Muslims, in addition to butchering millions of Christians by the sword, conscripted untold numbers of Christian boys by removing them from their families and forcibly converting them to Islam.
These children were then brainwashed to become “Janissaries” (elite soldiers) or they were assigned as “administrators” of the state. In fact, there were so many of these incidents in the Slavic states alone that it is from this horror show we now derive the word “slave.” |
The persecution of Christian by Muslims is well documented. The Hamidian massacres, the Adana massacre, and ultimately the Armenian, Assyrian, and Greek genocides resulted in the deaths of tens of millions of followers of Christ.
THE NEAR-TOTAL ERADICATION OF THE ANCIENT CHRISTIAN POPULATIONS FROM THE “CRADLE OF CHRISTIANITY” SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. J.D. Hall’s claim of Muslim benevolence toward Christians is nonsense, and Tucker Carlson’s platforming of such abhorrent views serves only to betray his antipathy for biblical Christians who, even as we speak, are being butchered at the hands of, you guessed it, Muslims in Nigeria and elsewhere around the world. |
Claiming that Muslims have been “very kind” to Christians is nothing but a shameful lie. |
