When the Gavel Falls: Jesus, the Only Judge Who Gets It Right

When the gavel falls, only one Judge gets it right—Jesus. He sees every hidden motive, every ignored Lazarus, every injustice. The rich man had no appeal; the Sanhedrin’s kangaroo court condemned the Innocent. Yet the One they judged will judge them—and us. His nail-scarred hand/wrists holds the gavel of perfect justice and mercy. Because He was judged in our place, the guilty can go free. One day every knee will bow to the King who became poor to make us eternally rich. Come to Him now; the chasm is still fixable today.

A Call to Christian Engagement: Politics, Economics, and the Duty to Act Now

Pastors who avoid politics betray their calling, burying tension that festers. At En-Joy Ministries, we engage politics and economics to be salt and light (Matt. 5:13-16). I urge repealing the Johnson Amendment to unleash the church (sign petition; read more). Shockingly, no pastor, friend, or family has acted—despite Trump and a GOP Congress. We reject prosperity gospel and poverty mindsets, embracing biblical stewardship (Matt. 25:14-30). Christians must stay informed, vote, and lead, not surrender the public square.

The Federal Reserve’s Lack of Oversight: Time for Change

The Federal Reserve, established in 1913, operates independently with minimal oversight, raising concerns about its accountability in a Constitutional Representative Republic. Chaired by Jerome Powell, the Fed does not answer to the President and is insulated from political influence to protect monetary policy. Although it reports to Congress and its officials face congressional committees, the structure remains largely autonomous. Comprising a federal Board of Governors and regional banks, the Fed’s decisions, particularly on interest rates, lack direct control. This independence has led to a functioning system devoid of sufficient checks and balances, prompting calls for significant reform or outright repeal.
