Dr. JB Hixson Mary welcomes back JB Hixson to talk about his latest book, “Fade to Black: Rise of Global Tyranny”. When he wrote Spirit of Antichrist and Spirit of the False Prophet, these well thought out books became invaluable to those who need a resource on the leading subjects of Bible prophecy today. But in short order, these same subjects have continued to bring ever clearer understanding of how they all reflect the lateness of the hour. In this updated work, JB presents an even sharper picture of not only what is going on, but the spirit behind it, something the Bible lays out fully when it addresses the pride and pretense of our arch-enemy, Satan. Current events playing out in our world are merely symptoms of the cosmic war, with humans as the spoil. We look at the 7 spirits that make up the “signs of the times”: the spirits of Pretense, Power, Phenomena, Pride, Persecution, Perversion, and Pluralism. An insightful hour with JB as the world “fades to black”.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

PASTOR CLAUDE STAUFFER Mary welcomes back Pastor Claude Stauffer to talk about the importance of being a dad of integrity. What is usually the message on our greeting cards and in our Fathers’ Day sermons? We can’t say because we probably don’t remember. But when it comes to biblical exhortation for dads, Jesus always brings it down to the heart of the matter – taking up our cross and following Him and seeking the kingdom, because then everything else falls into place. But that cross – that is where everything becomes clear. What is parenting if not a cross, where we die to ourselves and lay down our lives for little people who may never love us in return, or run off without even so much as a thank you? Once that baby is brought home, we are instantly brought low and in need of trusting in God. We talk today about integrity, keeping our word, being providers, loving our spouses, handling tough times, and standing for truth. All things our children need to see in us to best model the heart of God.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

On today’s edition of SUFTT, we review what it means to be a Berean, as outlined in Acts 17. When Paul was preaching Christ to the Thessalonian Jews, he also had the attention of the Greeks in attendance at the synagogue. Greeks often attended in those early days of the church because they weren’t interested in the rampant paganism, but opted instead to hear about the Jewish Messiah. While the Jews weren’t interested in having their traditional boat rocked, the Greeks of Berea were considered more noble because they were critical thinkers and sought to search the Old Testament daily to see if what Paul said was true, and many got saved. Today we use that context to talk about the ways the church must be Bereans as well – critical thinkers – when it comes to understanding and believing God about Israel and about prophecy. Churches that don’t teach prophecy, which permeates both old and New Testament, are not being Bereans. The challenge to filter everything we hear, every day by the Word of God may require time and diligence but it is of the utmost importance.

[From June 10, 2025] Mary welcomes back Olivier Melnick to discuss the new normal: antisemitism. He is a Jewish believer in Jesus from France, the son of Holocaust survivors, whose maternal grandfather was killed by the Nazis. Olivier is an internationally known speaker on antisemitism. He holds a BA from Moody Bible Institute and a masters from Dallas Theological Seminary, and has been equipping believers to understand and fight antisemitism since 2000. The ramping up of antisemitism is a complete surprise to some, it’s not that long ago that they were the target of genocide during WW2, and if anyone alive has a parent who fought in that war, the connection is still strong. So why now? How are things different? Today we talk about the stages of normalization from his book, “The Normalization of Antisemitism”. World leaders are not so subtly being drawn into this hate as the world turns their back on Israel. Words matter. Words turn to violence. Even our neighbor to the north is being drawn in. Israel can do nothing right, so they might as well do what they are going to do to stave off the end of the west through violence, immigration, and Islam.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

David Arthur Mary welcomes in studio David Arthur with a testimony about which we can only say, “Only God!”. At a very young age, David sought his identity through a deep desire for love and affirmation, having grown up with no father in the home and sexual abuse beginning at 6 years old. His story is both extremely heartbreaking and profoundly hopeful; a raw and unfiltered warning from someone who walked the full length of the road that so many youth are being encouraged to take today, one of gender dysphoria and identity confusion. For over 30 years, he was deeply immersed in what he calls the “LGBTQ+ transqueer cult” and living as a transgender woman for 20 years of that time. His is a testimony of living life inside out – until God turned his life inside out via a remarkable transformation via the planting of a seed from a corrections officer. When he finally came to the end of himself via a death sentence of full blown AIDS in his 30s, God did amazing things. The darker things get, the brighter the shining hope through Jesus Christ.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Today’s news cycle shows us what we’re up against when it comes to building the final world empire of surveillance and slavery. The Tower of Babel was one thing, and God judged it. Today’s tower to man’s desire to control is global, and it has the potential to be brutal. First up today is an update on the pandemic treaty, which, if you ask the average American, they would say it’s gone far away. Even though Trump would never sign on to it, whoever is in the big chair after him could easily be persuaded to join in the party. Is it the dawn of the new world order? Even the Iran war spells last days world order. And don’t get us started about Ai and that revolutionary tech. The world is in an uproar over so many things but what does the media care about? What Marco Rubio is wearing on the plane to China. Finding important news is becoming nearly impossible, but we give it our best shot.

[From 12/16/25] Mary welcomes back researcher, author and prophecy student Scott Townsend to chat specifically on Ai in the church. This is a murky subject, because the church has existed for over 2000 years and never once said to itself, “gee we need technology to carry out our mission in the world.” And it will always be so, because worship, discipleship, study and fellowship do not need any additives or preservatives. Yet here we are, ethically working through this thing that the whole world is coming under, as if on cue. The Bible, interestingly enough, only mentions the end game of it, we are in real time seeing its genesis. How can the prophecy student not be on the edge of their seats over this fulfillment in real time? We talk about the issues at hand that the church, which is not to be conformed to this world, had better take seriously in order to be truly effective and rely on our true source of power, the Holy Spirit.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
