Please help us reach $10K in donations for a matching grant The racial divide in the United States is wider than it has ever been. Most Americans are not racists. They sympathize with Black Americans who have been treated unjustly. The history of Black suppression and oppression is real. It’s been a slow road to right past injustices. Unfortunately, the Black Lives Matter movement hijacked much of [...]

Gary interacts with recent claims that outbreaks of peace in the world have significance for Bible prophecy. The “day of the Lord” was a day of God’s judgment and vengeance. As a result, there could be many such days. Luke describes the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70 as “days of vengeance” (Luke 21:22), the fulfillment of Isaiah 61:2: “The day of vengeance of our God” (also see 63:4). In the [...]

During an interview on February 16th with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CBS’s “Face the Nation” anchor Margaret Brennan said that Nazis “weaponized” free speech to conduct the Holocaust. Rubio was incredulous at Brennan’s ignorance of history: “There was no free speech in Nazi Germany. There was none. There was also no opposition in Nazi Germany, they were a sole and only party that governed tha [...]

Gary discusses DOGE and USAID and government overspending in general. The written Constitution “checks” the powers of the federal government by carefully delineating and specifying the powers of each branch. If the Constitution does not grant the federal government power to perform a particular activity, the government cannot legally perform it: “The powers not delegated to the United States by th [...]

The question that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) should be asking is under what constitutional provision does the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) derive its authority? Some might point to the Preamble and the General Welfare clause in the body of the Constitution: WE, THE PEOPLE of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure [...]

Gary runs through a few recent news stories and how the media is struggling to keep up with everything happening. The Bible directs us to submit to every human institution but with certain limitations. “Whether to a king as the one in authority, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right” (1 Peter 2:13). While Peter has civil authority in mi [...]

Gary discusses the current state of the country now that President Trump has taken office. Between the time of the Declaration of Independence (1776) and the United States Constitution (written 1787), the separate states operated under the Articles of Confederation (1781). These articles attempted to unite the independent states so that they could consolidate their powers in order to function more [...]

Every Christmas liberals try to make the Christmas story about some needed Leftist government welfare program. Leftists have little regard for the Bible unless it can be used to scold Christians for judging righteously (Matt. 7:1-2; John 7:24) and supporting socialism based on voluntary giving (Acts 2:42-45; 4:32-35). In the same breath they refuse to acknowledge the Bible teaches that unborn babi [...]

Recently Louisiana got into the Ten Commandments debate and a judge stepped in to halt a new law that would require public schools to display the Ten Commandments in their classrooms. U.S. District Judge John W. deGravelles issued a lengthy ruling and order on Tuesday in the case of Darcy Roake et al. v. Cade Brumley et al. At issue is Louisiana’s House Bill 71, signed into law in June, whic [...]

We rely on donations all-year-round, not just Giving Tuesday. But in the spirit of the new designation for the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, we are asking for your financial help and to become part of the team here at American Vision. As Gary points out below, we run a slim operation at AV, keeping employees, equipment, and expenses to a minimum. This allows us to crank out a lot of material, but th [...]

Gary is interviewed by Marlin Detweiler from Veritas Press about recent books he has written, American history, and how to teach and live the Christian worldview. The foundation of a proper study of God, the universe, and man is God and His revelation, not man and his ideas about God. There are all types of descriptions of “god” floating around—from Aristotle’s Prime Mover to the New Age belief th [...]

Gary interviews author Brian Godawa about his new book, Israel in Bible Prophecy: The New Testament Fulfillment of the Promise to Abraham. If Israel and Judah’s distress was so great that there was “none like it,” then how could a future tribulation be greater? In order to get around this interpretive problem, futurists claim that “Jacob’s distress” is a yet future great tribulation. But the conte [...]

Gary comments on a recent sermon by John Piper about the 2024 Election and Trump being “evil.” There are numerous books of the Bible that are filled with politics—from Joshua, Judges, and 1 and 2 Samuel to 1 and 2 Kings and the Old Testament Prophets. King David is confronted by Nathan the Prophet (2 Sam. 12), Solomon is shown violating nearly every biblical admonition regarding kings, [...]

In his book 1968 The Population Bomb, Paul R. Ehrlich made numerous predictions about the future of our planet based on his understanding of population growth and projected food supplies. Ehrlich’s work was not new. Thomas Robert Malthus (1766-1834), a British political economist and mathematician, proposed that population growth would outstrip any increase in food supplies in his day. Malthus the [...]

Gary continues his interview with Gordon Van Wechel with Alchemy Precious Metals about the worldwide demand for precious metals and how countries like China and India are influencing prices. The debasement of Isaiah’s day (Isaiah 1:22-26) was kids’ stuff compared to today. That was because of the limits of deception. Pour too much dross into the molten metal, and it will no longer look like silver [...]

Gary interviews Gordon Van Wechel with Alchemy Precious Metals. Part Two is here. The call for government intervention into market pricing is ancient. This call was resisted politically in the West until the decade before World War I began. After that war ended in 1918, the West saw the triumph of the isms: Communism, Fascism, National Socialism, Fabianism, and the smaller isms that arose in the w [...]

Gary recorded a bonus podcast yesterday with his thoughts about the election on Tuesday. These are the notes he used for the episode. Listen to the podcast here -————————– Had no idea who was going to win. Told my wife to stop feeding me election result news. Reminded me of 2016. What happened to all the “voters” Polling was way off. Decided to [...]

Two huge topics that defined the Harris/Walz platform were taxing rich people and the right to abortion. Gary points out how both of these are misrepresented to appeal to uninformed voters. Most Americans are under the false impression that our system of constitutional government is a democracy. To be sure, there are certainly democratic elements present. The First Amendment to the Constitution st [...]

Do you know that Planned Parenthood used the Bible and religion to convince women they are morally justified to kill their unborn babies. Maybe that’s why some prominent “Christians” are supporting the pro-abortion Democrat Party like one of Billy Graham’s granddaughters. The organization’s so-called “Pastoral Letter” begins with this outlandish claim: “Many people wrongly assume that all religiou [...]

Many Christians are saying that they won’t vote because neither candidate appeals to them. Not voting is still a vote, and these same Christians will have to live in the world that results from whichever candidate wins. Throughout its history, the church has been in the forefront of establishing political freedom. In addition, there is a long tradition of the establishment of schools and hos [...]
