Truth to Ponder

There is a march for the powers of evil to enslave the entire world under their edicts and demands. While this unholy desire for power and control has been around for thousands of years, it’s today’s technology that is bringing this dystopian world order closer to an absolute global reality. Part of accomplishing that goal is to mainstream things we once thought were insane, attack institutions like the family and the church, and keep people afraid and confused. Bob explores that and even the attack on motherhood on this edition of the program. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

The one thing that has become abundantly clear since even the early days of the COVID-19 Pandemic, many in our governments, the medical community, and the media around the world lied without any regard for real science, real truth, or human decency. It was as if their collective consciences were seared. Their motives, looking back, ranged from politics to power, control, and wealth. Now, those same people who created such harm on a global scale are begging for you to grant them amnesty for their crimes, forget what they did, and simply move on. Sadly, far too many people were harmed, lives, families, and businesses destroyed, and many lost their lives due to mandated protocols and arrogance. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/truth-to-ponder/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/truth-to-ponder/support

The Biden administration is undoubtedly the most freedom-hating, truth-challenged, antichrist-promoting freak show to ever hold power in Washington, DC. If it wasn't so dangerous and deadly it would potentially be just dark comedy. However, it is real, it is threatening, and it could usher in the downfall of the United States where as a nation, we may never recover. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

This year of 2024 is not even halfway over, yet there have been many twists, turns, and potholes in the road. The mainstream media are now very concerned about a Trump win in November. They are beginning to question the criminal trials against Donald Trump as being nothing but political actions with no legal merit. Inflation is on the minds of most voters. Even apology items are appearing about COVID-19 excesses and vaccines that are not safe and effective. Is this good news? Bob reminds you not to get a false sense of optimism and security.

Over the past couple of weeks, program host, Bob Biermann, has been giving thought to what news stories are worth our time, what causes are worth our efforts, and how many “time bandits” compete for our attention. Do we spend too much time focusing on all the wrong things? Has the 24/7 news cycle consumed our passion, sapped our strength, and consumed our time? Bob addresses those topics on today’s edition.

It seems that most Americans, Canadians, and those who cherish freedom in the Western World have lost sight of what is truly important. How could we have ever declined so much as a civilization in such a short span of time? It is because we placed our hopes, dreams, aspirations, and futures into politics, technology, medicine, and financial interests, all at the time allowing our churches to become compromised, impotent, shallow, and useless. While there are still some viable churches left, most churches are either apostate, dying, or already dead. Bob begins a 2 part series on is it possible to resurrect the church.

The first recorded use of the phrase "garbage in, garbage out" dates back to 1957. However, George Fuechsel, an IBM programmer and instructor, is generally credited with coining the term in the early 1960s. Fuechsel is said to have used the term to state concisely that a computer model or program just processes what it is given: If it is given bad information, it will produce bad information. Just as with computers, the same is true for education, politics, religious faith, and even news. Bob explains why on today’s edition of the program. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

It was 19th-century preacher, Charles H Spurgeon who said, “The time will come that instead of having shepherds leading the sheep, you will have clowns entertaining the goats.” Sadly, Spurgeon’s prediction has become too true, not just in the church, but even in our increasingly evil politics. Bob shares some thoughts on that topic, along with a message of hope of how we can bear forth good fruit, by being “grafted” on the living Vine. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

Statistics show that there are more self-identified pagans in the United States than there are Presbyterians. An example of where we are as a nation is the phony holiday of Earth Day, which we talked about last week. In addition, decency and honesty are dead as we see political Lawfare play out all in the name of politics. Then the willful self-destruction of the church. Later on in the program, Jim Calhoun drops by with his observations about the disintegration of families. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

Ever since the end of World War II, we have been hearing predictions and warnings about the upcoming Third World War. For almost 80 years the war drums have been beaten, and trillions invested in Mutual Assured Destruction, known as MAD. Not only nations and corporations that can profit from war, but even so-called prophets for profit have been selling imminent war for decades. Now, while the Bible is clear about wars and rumors of wars, too many Christians are obsessed to the point of not fulfilling their true calling. Also on the program, Jim Calhoun stops by to share some thoughts on why the instability in Eastern Europe. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

The Ross family entrusted the life of their husband and father, Jason, to the care of the hospital. They were met with opposition when seeking alternatives to the prescribed protocols, and Jason ultimately passed away. On yesterday’s program, we shared the story from Minnesota of a woman who lost her healthy 70-year-old dad to the COVID protocols forced in place by arrogant government authorities, protocols that have been proven not to work and be dangerous. Today, we share the story of a husband, and father of three from Georgia, who lost his life to insane government policies. Since the summer of 2020, we have exposed the lies, the fraud, and the needless deaths caused by this man-made pathogen. We can never just forget and simply move on. Those who did this MUST be held fully accountable for what they knowingly did for financial, political, and globalist agenda gains. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

Since the summer of 2020, this program has chronicled the pandemic known as COVID-19, with all the lies, the misinformation, the ridiculous policies, and the financial and emotional costs. During this time, we have endeavored to hold those who created these policies and mandates accountable. However, as many in government and medicine try to get us to forget what they did to us, we simply cannot forget. There is a real and tragic human cost that was borne by many families. Today Bob welcomes Nicole Marxen Riggs, who shares her story about losing her dad, Ralph Marxen Jr. to the hospital protocols forced on patients during the pandemic, and sometimes even unto this day. This is a powerful program that reminds us that we MUST hold those who did this to our world accountable and that we must NOT forget. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

These past decades have seen radical and many unhealthy changes in the churches in much of the Western World. Many have abandoned their roots and core beliefs, replaced by apostate theology and teaching. Instead of being “Salt and Light,” they are messengers of darkness. Mocking God is commonplace, and a Christian worldview is no longer welcome. Could this be why there are so many disturbing headlines in the news? Bob explores that and more on this weekend edition of the program. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

A recent story out of Auburn, Georgia, a small town 25 miles northeast of Atlanta, shows how the LGBTQ and TRANS agenda is slowly and effectively invading our schools. On the program today, Bob shares the story of a video that was shown at Bramlett Elementary School to 4th and 5th graders. It was only when word leaked out on social media and the school was caught red-handed, that the school pulled the video. In a letter to parents, the Principal, Todd Graichen, using what is best described as “weasel words,” tried to defend the video being shown in the first place. This story is indicative of what is creeping into even what many believe are “safe schools.” In addition, Bob shares his thoughts on a couple of other current stories and their implication for our lives and future. In the second half of the program, Jim Calhoun shares the ideas of “New Beginnings.” It is a full program you need to hear and share. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

It’s hard to believe it has been 54 years since the first “Earth Day” observance. At the time, we were told we were going to freeze to death if something was not done immediately. We must have done extremely well, as within 20 years, the earth stopped freezing and instead was on a pathway to setting itself on fire, all because of Carbon Dioxide, beef, and our modern lifestyle, It manmade climate change fact or fiction? Bob shares his thoughts today, plus Jim Calhoun shares some thoughts on beating inflation. Now, do you believe in this ministry?
