The secularization of the Republican Party may lead to the downfall of America

We all know that the Democrats’ platform is godless and rooted in atheism. The Republican side is supposed to be rooted in conservative Christian values, holding true to the Founding Fathers’ vision for America. Unfortunately, the GOP is becoming secularized and turning its back on our Creator. This is extremely dangerous for the future of America.

Thankfully under the leadership of President Donald Trump, many Americans have turned their back on the Democrat Party and come over to the Right, joining the Republican Party. The consistent theme is that the Democrats are not the same party that we used to know. They are not the party of oppression, authoritarianism and intersectionality.

Most people fleeing the Dem Party are those that simply want freedom, and usually that has to do with freedom of speech, the right to bear arms and getting the government out of our businesses. Unfortunately for the GOP, this has created a “Texas” effect, where Californians are fleeing their oppressive state for greener pastures in the state of Texas, yet they are also bringing their Leftist baggage along with them. This has turned this formerly Republican stronghold into an almost purple state.

The same thing is happening within the Republican Party. Because the Democrat Party is a very secularized platform which turns its back on God, many of those coming over to the GOP are also turning their back upon God. Yes, they want the principles that we offer, all while not acknowledging the One who created those principles. This has allowed many of these new Republicans to pick and choose which principles they want to believe in… which leads to compromise in many different areas, including in the morality of those who claim to be conservatives.

Just as the Left continually redefines words to fit their narrative, we are seeing a redefinition of “conservative” into meaning “libertarian.” The majority of the visible leaders of the Republican Party are not conservative, but libertarian. This is taking the GOP into yet another atheistic party alternative to the Dems.

The reason why America became as great as it was, ultimately being the greatest nation on the face of the earth, was simply because we submitted to the common faith in God across the board. Our Founding Fathers established America as a Christian nation, giving us the freedom to worship God without restriction from the government. Unfortunately, America has turned her back against God… and, as we can clearly see, that is not limited to the Democrat Party.

If we want to save America, we are going to have to collectively repent for the sins of our nation. We are going to have to bring back Christian leadership to the Republican Party. We can always partner with the libertarians in areas that we agree, but we cannot submit to their leadership in areas that go against Biblical principles that conservatives hold dear to.

Big Tech censorship has been expanding beyond just Conservatives… Christians are next!

While many of us have been warning about the coming persecution of Christians, I don’t think any of us thought that it would be ramping up so quickly. While we are luckily not facing physical persecution yet, such as beatings or death, we are facing censorship, deplatforming and even jail time in some instances. These are just the birth pangs of what is coming next.

While we still have a voice here at The GateKeepers, we are doing everything that we can to bypass the algorithmic walls put up by Big Tech and the Social Media companies like Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. Our videos used to get thousands of views across all of our platforms, while now they are being throttled and hardly getting distributed at all. An added wrinkle is that, while our video content is seeing lower views, traffic to our website has never been higher. Over the past year we’ve seen a 700% increase in traffic, and it’s been amazing to experience this kind of growth. Because of this, we’ll be launching GKTV very soon, hosting all of our shows exclusively on our platform.

While The GateKeepers started out as nothing more than a blog for me to post my articles relating to concerns within Christianity, it has now expanded into a full-fledged Christian podcast network featuring fifteen shows, a publishing company that has published three books over the past year and we are now hosting conferences on a regular basis. We’ve seen the addition of contributors to The GateKeepers such as Denise McAllister, Pastor Cary Gordon, Pastor Ken Peters, Dr Mike Spaulding, Dr Bobby Lopez and many other amazing Christian leaders. Our lineup of shows has expanded, as well, featuring shows such as The Shining Light Podcast, Conversations with Jeff, The Big Brown Gadfly, Battlefront: SouthGate and The Verum Monitae Report with Dr Mike Spaulding, in addition the the several other shows we also carry on The GateKeepers.

Everything that we do is for the purpose of expanding Biblical Christianity through the preaching of the Gospel, the exposition of God's Word and confronting error where it pops its ugly head within the Church. We are mission-focused first, and then we use technology, books, resources and events to accomplish and further the Gospel and Biblical theology.

While we’ve seen some amazing growth and expansion, we are also working hard to make this be a long-term play, and with that comes with how to fund our work here. I’ve intentionally not turned The GateKeepers into a non-profit organization because I don’t want to become beholden to the government, and I also don’t want to be focused on sending out fundraising letters constantly begging for money like most non-profit ministries do.

Instead, we have our online book store, are hosting online conferences and have our Plugged In membership program. Right now we are funded exclusively through these three different avenues. We are especially excited about our Plugged In membership, as this brings so much added value to you as a thank you for supporting our work here at The GateKeepers.

Becoming a Plugged In member provides access to the weekly episode of The GateKeepers Podcast, the monthly episode of Connected, free access to all of our online conferences, the recordings from previous online conferences and 30% off in The GK Store. If you would like to support us by becoming a Plugged In member, click here.

However, we’ve also been getting a lot of requests from supporters asking how they can donate to help support The GateKeepers. We are extremely grateful for these requests, as this will help us to expand even further and provide more quality Biblical content. If you would like to help support to The GateKeepers, you can donate through PayPal here.
