Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

On this Good Friday 2026, Mary takes a look at the reality of authority in this life, and in the one to come. Whether we realize it or not, authority is part of every day for every human. Parents, teachers, employers, politicians, authority in the home, and possibly even over how we will die, at least in Peter’s case and the case of the martyrs. We start at the beginning, when the authorities of the day had issues with the authority that Jesus claimed. Nothing gets hard core religious leaders in knots than to be usurping their hard-won, ego-driven authority over people, and Jesus put them in their place. Today, we struggle daily with political authority: who has it, who wants it, and who abuses it and abuses others over it. Why does the left hate Christians so much? It’s really very simple – because we follow after and obey a higher authority and that is what propels them to try and control everyone. Those who said they would not follow the Cov narrative were persecuted in a manner that told the tale though they denied it. And in the home, how does that play out best to show the example of Christ loving the church? It’s really not complicated at all. Communism, Islam, Nazism, climate change, No Kings – you name it – it all comes down to authority. And everyone will choose; every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.

Mary welcomes back the insightful David Holland to talk gold and silver and economies and how despite the “rich” history of gold, things are changing rapidly because of the digital age. We talk a bit about gold in the Bible, and how it has always had an impact in the world regarding value, and buying and selling. God created it, He used it for His purposes, and mankind has found many ways to discover its various functions. We talk about the current economic situation, which can change overnight especially when there is a significant war going on in a pivotal place in the world such as the Middle East. On any given day, we might rather say, “he who has the oil makes the rules”, especially when things pinch at the gas pump. We also chat about the immense changes regarding digital currencies and how they figure into the morphing of our world, leading to a specific end that we can easily understand from Revelation. David’s Substack can be found here.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

So, do you think like we do that it’s time to pull the plug on this old planet? Wars and rumors, protestors, papal pronouncements, tyrants – I think we have all had enough. And yet the Lord has the planet continue to rotate. Time must surely be on life support. Today we talk about the latest in Iran, something we expected in that the Revolutionary Guard seems to be in charge now. We also look at a bizarre speech by the Pope in which he lectures the world on war and what God thinks of it. Unfortunately, he has missed the mark widely. Energy lockdowns are also on our target list, because wasn’t it just 6 years ago that the powerful decided we all needed to stay home and not breathe on grandma? Here we go again. Time for a new heavens and new earth.
