I have worked during the Advent season to avoid writing constantly about politics. Instead, I have tried to devote some of my time to focus on Christianity, given the whole season exists due to the birth of Jesus. On my radio show, I occasionally branch off from the daily news and politics into discussions of faith and culture. Having done so for so long, I have gotten asked multiple times to fill in for preachers on Sunday mornings.
Wow! I have to share this message. Thank you for speaking unabashedly about your Christian faith, Erick. You help embolden many others. Merry Christmas. 🌲❤
I agree with you 100 percent! We may disagree politically, but the beliefs you talk about I share. Is not it wonderful to be able to disagree with someone, have a reasonable discussion, and not call for each other's head? Of particular repugnance to me, is church people who when they disagree, simply because they have a different opinion, want to sentence each other to hell. Well it is not our mission to do that. OUR mission is to spread the good news of Jesus Christ.
About justice. No one can fool God. I have had discussions with others who dismiss the idea of hell, and say "If it is true, I will just ask for forgiveness on my deathbed, and God will accept me. " No one knows their time of death so imagine the arrogance of someone who tries to fool the Creator of the Universe with a false repentance! And about justice. Do people think they will have free will in hell? Free will is a God thing, not a satan thing.
Merry Christmas to all and pray for peace on earth!
Another hearty amen!! I am thankful for the faith that God the Father has given to you, and to a multitude of others whom He has drawn to Jesus Christ, Who is the way, the truth and the life.
Thank you Eric for keeping us focused on the real reason for this season.
Amen! Thank you!
Well said. To quote a much loved hymn, "He lives, and while He lives I'll sing; He lives, my prophet, priest and king."
Thank you!
"...cancel culture cannot cancel the cross."
BAM!! That's what I'm talkin' bout! Go Erick!

God bless you, Brother, for your profound witness.
Jesus is the only man in history who suffered a criminal death and then lived to tell about it. That's evidence enough for me. I'm going with Him.
But you gotta believe it!
Amen!!
In a recent column from the Daily Wire, I read a quote by Mark Twain.
“There are only two forces that can carry light to all the corners of the world.......the sun in the heavens and the associated press down here.”
I would amend that to “....the Son in His heavens and Erick Erickson down here!!!!”
May the Christ of Christmas be with each day.
Another hearty amen!! I am thankful for the faith that God the Father has given to you, and to a multitude of others whom He has drawn to Jesus Christ, Who is the way, the truth and the life.
Amen! Needed to hear this! Merry Christmas!
Amen! Thank you for sharing the gospel message.
