If you've been following the news you've seen the riots, the vandalism and the overall, insurrection-type atmosphere that's taken shape in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is in response to Operation Metro Surge, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials have been focusing on the apprehension of those who've entered the U.S. illegally, while also committing further criminal acts. The shooting of a protester this past weekend is under investigation. At the same time, the "temperature" of the situation might be changing for the better as President Trump indicated he had a very good call with Governor Walz; that the governor called him with a request to work together with respect to Minnesota. However, let's not forget what happened on Sunday, January 18th, when Cities Church in St. Paul had its worship service interrupted by protesters who brought the service to a halt. What ensued were shouts, screams and intimidation brought to the pastor, the congregation and the children. Don't miss this edition of Crosstalk as William walks listeners through history as he explains the individuals and philosophies that identify with this tactic of invading churches, and therefore where the incident in St. Paul may be taking us, and why.

The sermon centers on the Great White Throne Judgment described in Revelation 20, emphasizing that all unbelievers—those who rejected Christ throughout history, including those who lived during the Millennium—will be resurrected and stand before God to be judged according to their works. Unlike the judgment seat of Christ, which evaluates believers' faithfulness for rewards, this final judgment determines eternal punishment for those without Christ, with no possibility of annihilation, as the lake of fire represents everlasting punishment, not extinction. The passage underscores God's perfect justice, affirming that every sin is recorded and will be made manifest, yet it also offers profound relief for believers, whose sins have been blotted out by Christ's blood and are no longer held against them. The message concludes with a heartfelt, urgent call to repentance and faith, stressing that salvation is available to all who open their hearts to Christ, while warning of the eternal consequences of rejection. The tone is both solemn and pastoral, combining theological precision with deep compassion for the lost.

Victor Nieves joined Jim for this edition of Crosstalk. He's the new president of Life Issues Institute which was founded in 1991 to serve the educational needs of the pro-life movement. It was 53 years ago today that the U.S. Supreme Court announced their decision in a case known as Roe v. Wade. 49 and one-half years later, the nation's highest court overturned Roe v. Wade with the Dobbs decision which has turned this matter back to the states. According to NumberofAbortions.com nearly 67.5 million abortions have taken place in the United States since Roe and sadly, the carnage continues. In spite of the Dobbs decision, and although a number of states have taken legislative action in opposition to abortion and even though Planned Parenthood has closed many abortion centers around the country, abortions are increasing as the abortion pill is flourishing. The abortion pill has proven to be dangerous for both moms and babies. While those promoting this pill insist that it's safe, researchers with the Ethics and Public Policy Center report the abortion pill is 22 times more dangerous than Planned Parenthood says. Why is this? The abortion pill is a two-part protocol. The first one starves the baby by cutting off progesterone. The second part then forces premature delivery to what is now a dead child. Victor indicated this process is often occurring with no medical oversight. The result is that one in ten women who take this pill will have serious adverse complications.

Cities Church, a Southern Baptist church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was invaded Sunday as protesters interrupted the service by standing and screaming just as the Scriptures were being opened. How would you and your church leadership react if this were to happen at your church?

It features audio cuts from Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, former CNN reporter Don Lemon who was live-streaming the protest, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon, U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, numerous news stories related to the fallout from the church invasion and input from listeners nationwide.
