The Written Word of Democratic Socialists of America - Ep. 942 - July 13, 2026

The Democratic Socialists of America have put their agenda in writing, and the proposals raise serious questions about America's constitutional system, elections, military policy, immigration, and religious freedom. On Episode 942 of The Smith and Rowland Show, the discussion examines claims that the DSA has grown into a significant political force, with candidates winning Democratic primaries across the country. Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland address proposals to abolish the U.S. Senate, reduce the role of the Electoral College, place Congress in control of the executive and judicial branches, shorten the workweek, reduce military spending, and expand government-funded programs. The conversation also focuses on why the founders created separate branches of government, how the Senate protects state representation, and what could happen if majority rule replaces constitutional checks and balances. The hosts discuss the risks of concentrated political power, the role of America's military as a deterrent, and the effect of reduced Christian participation in elections and public debate. They also examine the influence of college campuses, the silence of many church pulpits, the relationship between socialism and replacement theology, and the controversy surrounding the Democratic Socialists of America's position on Israel. Watch the full episode for a direct conversation about the DSA platform, constitutional government, individual rights, national defense, and the responsibility of Christians to understand the issues and participate in the civic life of the country.

You Always Have A Choice - Ep. 941 - July 10, 2026

What does it mean to have a choice when deception, religion, politics, and prophecy shape the way people see the world? In Episode 941 of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith examine rising antisemitism, the role of Israel in biblical prophecy, and the spiritual confusion surrounding Judaism, Islam, and apostate Christianity. Their discussion centers on 2 Thessalonians 2, the "strong delusion," the man of sin, and the warnings Scripture gives about rejecting truth. The conversation also addresses:  * Why antisemitism continues to blame a small Jewish population for global problems  * How biblical prophecy describes Israel's future and the significance of Jerusalem  * Why Christians are called to preach the gospel to Jews and Muslims rather than hate them  * The difference between deception, illusion, and delusion  * God's response to people who repeatedly reject truth  * Free will, personal responsibility, temptation, and the ability to choose God  * Why God's promises to Israel shouldn't be reassigned to the church  * The connection between religious beliefs, geopolitics, and current conflicts  * The future revival Scripture says will take place in Israel Jeff and Alan also bring their usual humor to the broadcast, including an unexpected discussion about air fresheners, dairy farms, and the rush of potential sponsors. The central message is clear: circumstances, temptation, blindness, or delusion don't remove personal responsibility. Every person still has a choice, and the Word of God provides the standard for making it.

Alan Smith: Divine Protection & Open Doors - Ep. 940 - July 9, 2026

What happens when God opens a door, and how should believers respond when the way forward becomes uncertain? Alan Smith examines Acts 19 through the themes of divine protection, spiritual discernment, accountability, and obedience. In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan offers an opinion piece on a teaching from Acts 19 and explains why open doors are also tests of character. Paul had a significant opportunity in Ephesus, yet wise counsel kept him from entering a dangerous situation. The account shows how God can protect His people through the guidance of fellow believers. The discussion also covers:  * How to test teaching against Scripture instead of building faith on personality  * Why Charles Finney's revival preaching still matters  * How wider access to the Bible increased personal responsibility  * Progressive revelation and reading Scripture as one unified story  * Predestination, free will, and God's promise to conform believers to Christ  * The meaning of baptism in the Holy Spirit as immersion into the life of Christ  * Spiritual gifts, healing, revival, and the need for discernment  * Why influence and anointing require accountability  * How Acts 19 helps believers respond wisely to open doors Alan encourages viewers to remain teachable, search the Scriptures personally, listen to the counsel of the body of Christ, and obey the truth God has already revealed.

The Greatest Threat To Our Nation - Ep. 939 - July 7, 2026

On this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland take a sharp, funny, and biblical look at the rising threat of communism, democratic socialism, and the way replacement ideas keep showing up in American politics. The conversation starts with a laugh, then moves straight into a serious question, why are so many politicians and activists selling policies that sound compassionate on the surface, but don't add up when you look at the math, the history, and the results? Allan and Jeff break down how terms get swapped, how socialism gets packaged as mercy, and why promises of free rent, free food, and free everything always run into the same wall, reality. They also connect the current headlines to Scripture, talking about biblical prophecy, the role of nations, the Tower of Babel, theocracy, and how anti-God systems keep trying to imitate what belongs to God. Along the way, they address President Trump's comments about communism being the greatest threat to America, the growing influence of socialist candidates in major cities, and the real-world fallout that follows when government tries to play the role of provider. If you want a straight talk conversation that mixes news, faith, politics, and Bible prophecy, this one is worth your time. The discussion is bold, practical, and full of the kind of commentary The Smith and Rowland Show is known for. Watch now and hear why they believe freedom, borders, responsibility, and biblical truth are all tied together. #SmithAndRowlandShow #Communism #Socialism #BibleProphecy #FaithAndPolitics

Is Communism Replacing Christianity? - Ep. 938 - July 6, 2026

In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, the conversation gets blunt fast as the hosts compare communism, socialism, and the Bible's teaching on communal living. They trace the history of the hippie movement, Woodstock, the Jesus movement, and Acts 2, then draw a hard line between Christian generosity and political systems that try to copy it without Christ. The discussion also tackles a bigger question facing the country right now: when does political ideology start replacing biblical thinking? From New York politics and public policy to lawlessness, redistribution, and the role of the church, this episode lays out the argument in plain language. If you want a direct conversation about socialism, communism, the antichrist, the kingdom of God, and why these ideas keep showing up in modern politics, this one is for you. You'll hear: How Acts 2 is used in the conversation about communal living Why the hosts see socialism and communism as imitation systems What happens when political ideas start to sound spiritual Why Christian charity and kingdom principles matter more than ideology How this debate connects to current headlines and the future of America This is a strong, unfiltered discussion about faith, government, morality, and the pressure to replace biblical truth with a political program. Watch through and think carefully about what kind of system can actually work, and what kind of heart it takes to make it work at all.
