The Robertsons share what they hope happens to P. Diddy in jail



Sean “Diddy” Combs is currently being held in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center while a storm of federal and civil cases rages around him. He’s already been hit with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and prostitution charges, but those charges are anticipated to rack up even more as additional allegations are filed against him.

Jase and Al Robertson alongside cousin Zach discuss the P. Diddy scandal and what they hope happens to the music mogul while he’s locked up.

Zach remembers a time during 1998 when he used to listen to P. Diddy.

“We thought this is cool; this is glamorous,” he says. “Now you fast forward 20 years and everything that this guy was celebrated for in culture he's now being demonized for.”

And he’s right — the list of things Combs is being demonized for is a long list of depravities that have been likened repeatedly to those of Jeffery Epstein, who met a dark fate behind bars following his conviction.

Further, it’s no secret what happens to many sex offenders in prison.

However, that’s not what the Robertsons wish for Sean “Diddy” Combs.

“I hope that out of the desperation of losing all that he thought was important that someone will share Jesus with that man,” says Al. “Maybe he’ll now finally be ready to listen.”

“A lot of times, that’s what it takes. It takes the devastation of a lifestyle that gets you there,” he adds.

“Depravity is actually a form of slavery, and you see it with this P. Diddy story for sure — like this guy was clearly a slave to his own depravity,” says Zach.

Thankfully, the gospel offers freedom and redemption, which is what the Robertsons pray Sean Combs will find.

Pastor visits jailed teen accused of torching church vans — then helps change his life forever: 'He gave his life to Christ'



A South Carolina pastor emulated a core teaching of Christianity when he forgave a teenager accused of setting fire to his church's vans.

Earlier this month, South Carolina police arrested 18-year-old Brandon Thomas Greene for allegedly torching two Ford Transit church vans in the parking lot at Philadelphia Baptist Church in Pauline, South Carolina.

'I told him that the church loved him because Christ loved us, and then, long story short, I got to share the gospel with him.'

He was taken into custody on July 5 and charged with two counts of arson.

To be sure, losing the church vans was an inconvenience for Philadelphia Baptist Church. Congregants were planning to use the vans to transport a youth team to a missions event in Kentucky. The departure date was the day after the vans were torched.

However, instead of responding with anger, Philadelphia Baptist Church pastor Kiah Graves visited Greene in jail and extended him forgiveness.

"'Brandon, we forgive you because we've been forgiven of our sins, but we want to know if you understand that,'" Graves recounted to WYFF-TV of the message he delivered to Greene in jail.

But that's not all.

Not only did Graves extend forgiveness, but he also shared the gospel with Greene.

"It was an amazing moment. We hugged each other. I told him that the church loved him because Christ loved us, and then, long story short, I got to share the gospel with him," Graves told WYFF.

"He gave his life to Christ in there, repented of his sins, and wants to be baptized," he explained. "But none of that would have happened, I don't think, if everybody wasn't on the same page of, 'Yes, let's catch him, let's make sure we get that squared away, but also don't leave him by himself.'"

Forgiveness is core to Jesus' teachings. Not only did Jesus emphasize the importance of forgiveness in his Sermon on the Mount, but he repeatedly told parables about the requirement of forgiveness.

Famously, Jesus even told his disciple Peter that forgiveness should be never-ending.

As this situation demonstrates, forgiven people forgive — and receiving the grace of forgiveness contains a transforming power.

"Forgiveness and a hope of redemption for other people, offering second chances, is a way that Spartanburg could be known as one of the best places on Earth to live," Graves told WYFF.

Franklin Graham reveals how God 'spared' Trump's life — then he uses RNC stage to quote scripture, share Christian gospel



Franklin Graham used his speech at the Republican National Convention to share the gospel.

Speaking on the final night of the convention on Thursday, Graham reflected on the attempted assassination of Donald Trump and shared his belief that Trump survived because of divine intervention.

'Unite our hearts, bring us together, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty, and justice for all.'

"God spared his life," Graham declared. "And when we go through those experiences, it changes us."

"It can cause us to examine our lives and re-evaluate our priorities, as it should," he continued. "When President Trump rose from that platform, he rose with his fist raised in strength, showing America his unshakeable resolve to fight for them and this nation."

Then Graham used his stage time to share the core message of Christianity, quoting John 3:16.

"I cannot explain why God would save one life and allow another one to be taken. I don't have the answer for that," Graham said.

"But one thing I do know is that God loves us, and he wants us to be with him in heaven one day. And that's through faith in his son, Jesus Christ," he continued. "You see, the Bible says that, 'God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him shouldn't perish but should have everlasting life.'"

Afterward, Graham prayed. He asked God to give Trump wisdom. He petitioned for Sen. JD Vance and his family. And most importantly, he asked God to "unite our hearts, bring us together, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty, and justice for all."

Faith was a significant component of the RNC, especially after the attempted assassination of Trump.

Not only is it hard to understand how Trump turned his head at the literal perfect time to prevent being murdered, but Corey Comperatore — the lone tragic death from the Butler, Pennsylvania, campaign rally — was a man of strong faith.

Not only did he emulate the self-sacrificial love of Jesus by protecting his family in his final moments of life, but Comperatore was "a man of deep faith who lived his life in honor of Christ and in service to others," according to his pastor Jonathan Fehl.

"Corey was a longtime, faithful member of Cabot Church. His love for Jesus was clear in the way he lived his life. He served his family, his church, his community, and his country, and he did that all with a heart of service to the Lord," Fehl said in a letter to his congregation after the tragedy that was shared with Blaze News.

"Whether it was taking part in a small group, serving on the trustees, or lending his expertise to a building project, he was constantly helping the people around him," Fehl added. "He drew particular strength from the Book of Romans, always telling new Christians they should read that book first."

Comperatore's funeral is being held on Friday.

Behind Jordan Peterson’s ‘Biblical’ Teaching Is His Own Humanistic Agenda

Sensing a market with Christian evangelicals, Jordan Peterson is leaning into the Bible. The problem is, Peterson is not a Christian.

Gospel singer Dennis Quaid details his journey from drugs to Jesus: 'I lean on God'



Dennis Quaid has long been a familiar face in Hollywood, starring in hits and cult classics such as "Traffic," "Parent Trap," and "Innerspace." While he continues to appear on celluloid, lately he has also been mounting stages to sing God's praises.

Shortly after releasing his gospel record "Fallen" in June 2023 — which landed in the top 15 on Billboard's Top 200 Christian/Gospel chart — Quaid provided BlazeTV's "Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey" incredible insights into his renewal of faith and road back to an intimate relationship with God.

Quaid, a 69-year-old Houston native, recently expounded on some details of his spiritual revival while promoting a new television special, telling the Christian Post how after a period of disillusionment with his inherited Baptist faith, he "started asking questions that didn't have answers."

The Emmy Award-winning actor apparently looked to the Orient in search of understanding, consulting the Buddhist Dhammapada, the Bhagavad Gita, as well as the Quran. Evidently, he was left unsatisfied.

Quaid revisited the Bible, but he remained spiritually obstinate.

"I read the Bible cover to cover as well, back then, and I got hung up in the Old Testament, how violent it was. God seemed like a punishing God back then to me," Quaid told the Post. "A lot of it just didn't make sense."

Rather than embrace what then appeared to be an omniscient disciplinarian, the actor apparently turned to pleasure and lawlessness, experimenting with drugs. The road well traveled left Quaid addicted to cocaine.

In 2002, the New York Times characterized this period of Quaid's life as his "decade in the Hollywood wilderness."

Quaid hinted at the seed of a return to faith at the time, telling the paper, "Mostly, I was mad at God, you know? Why was I in this predicament? I knew it was all my own fault, but at the same time I wasn't thinking straight. I was caught in a place, living a life that I didn't want to live but couldn't escape."

When speaking last year to Allie Beth Stuckey, Quaid recalled his realization at the time: "I saw myself as either dead or in jail or losing everything I had ... so, I did get myself straight with that, but that still didn't fill the hole that was there — in fact, it was a very deep hole after that."

The actor recently underscored to ChristianHeadlines that to get out of this hole, he had to once again crack open the Bible.

"I got clean in 1990 of cocaine, and I read the Bible again. I'd read it as a kid, and I read it again. And this time, I was really struck by the red words of Jesus," said the actor. "And that's really what started, I think, what I've been looking for all along — and which, you know, my mother told me and other people [told me], but I never really understood, which is having a personal relationship with Jesus. And, of course, that has grown over the years. But I never really understood it until then."

"I lean on God. I talk to Him every day," added Quaid. "I talk to God about problems. ... And gratitude for the blessings that I have."

Quaid made expressly clear that drugs could never satisfy and comfort the way that faith does.

"Everybody has that [void] — they try to fill that with relationships or with drugs or with money or with whatever it is, you know, our heart's desire," said Quaid. "What we're really looking for is to fill that ... God-sized hole."

Quaid told the Post that after reading the Bible through multiple times, he is now particularly fond of the book of Ecclesiastes for its insights into life and morality. The Gospel of John, however, appears to be the actor's favorite biblical text, not least because it underscores Christ is the Logos.

"I think John brings together physics and the Spirit and explains it in a timeless way," said Quaid. "He points to a bigger truth that we have no words for."

Extra to the DVD special for his gospel album, the prayerful actor is set to appear in "Reagan," a feature film about the 40th U.S. president, which will reportedly hit theaters in late August.

Holy Week Provides A Time To Offer Forgiveness — And Seek It Out

We forgive someone not necessarily because they deserve it, but because we want to bring out the best in them and in ourselves.
