Are You Following Politicians, Celebrities, or Reporters?

Dr. Charles Stanley writes, “Many years ago while I was on a photography trip, the Heavenly Father taught me a valuable lesson about leading and following.” His party had been hiking on the trail for three or four hours when he felt a slight sensation of dread. He said he had a sneaking suspicion that they were headed the wrong way. When he asked, the guide reassured Dr. Stanley that the group was heading in the right direction. Dr. Stanley

The Importance of Conviction

Today we live in a society that is convinced there are no absolute moral truths. It not only considers the Bible outdated and irrelevant to contemporary problems but also sees each person as free to decide what is right. As a result, our culture is ungodly, immoral, violent, and self-centered. How are we as Christians supposed to live in such an environment? We need look no further than the example of a teenage boy named Daniel, who had the courage

Benjamin Netanyahu and the Middle East Because the relationship between Israel and the United States has become so secure during the first two years of President Donald Trump’s administration, it’s sometimes easy to overlook the fact that much of the world still opposes the tiny Middle Eastern democracy. Because of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s steady, strong, and conservative leadership of Israel, we take for granted that everything is stable within our closest ally’s borders. Not so. For the first time

Weekly World News Report – March 1, 2019

Recently, eight prominent members of Britain’s Labour Party resigned from their party. They did so in protest of the new rise of antisemitism within the party. Luciana Berger is one of the Members of Parliament (MP) who resigned. She wrote: “I cannot remain in a party that I have come to the sickening conclusion is institutionally anti-Semitic.” Other Labour members called her a “disruptive Zionist” who supported a “murdering government.” A well-known Labour leader, Margaret Tyson, called the Israelis, “…murdering

Climate Change Summit – A Moral crisis? Last week, 4,000 participants from 140 nations gathered in Dubai for the annual World Government Summit. The 2019 Summit focused on “climate change.” That’s the refurbished name for “global warming.” I suppose they felt they needed to refocus the name for the crisis when the winters started getting colder and the amount of arctic ice started increasing. One of the featured speakers was the actor, Harrison Ford. I’m not certain whether it’s his

The Variable Truth

The United States is quickly becoming a different place. Many of the things we took for granted just a few short years ago may no longer be true. Here’s one: Bipartisan support for Israel in the United States Congress. Recently, the Senate passed a bill. It’s called “The Strengthening America’s Security in the Middle East Act.” The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) notes that the bill, “contains critical pro-Israel provisions.” According to AIPAC, “These provisions… pledge security assistance to

Deception Pervading America

I doubt he fully appreciates it, but President Donald Trump has performed a valuable service for scores of millions of Americans. He has opened their eyes to the insidious atmosphere of deception that pervades America and, indeed, the world. When he takes on the mainstream media and constantly points out the daily examples of “fake news”; when he exposes the bald-faced lies of those who promote the “virtues” of socialism; when he boldly proclaims late-term abortion to be what it

A Look at 2018 Through The Prophetic Lens

At the beginning of his masterpiece, A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens wrote: “It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.” Wow! He could have been writing about the United States of America in 2018. All we ever hear is that it is the worst of times. Reality says that, in many ways, it has been the best of times. Off-the-charts employment — for all racial groups — and increasing wages. A booming economy as

Wikipedia – Consensus Science at its Worst

Wikipedia – A dubious source, but a powerful tool for suppressing dissent   by Paul Price Since its inception in 2001, Wikipedia has been a controversial website, plagued with problems, the greatest of which is the serious concern of biased and inaccurate content.1 This is no small problem for the internet at large, since Wikipedia has become a go-to source on nearly everything, appearing in a very high percentage of Google searches as one of the top results.2 More recently, Google was embarrassed

Keep a Watchful Eye on Entertainment

Last year, a Michigan dad took his two stepsons to Burger King. A TV was mounted to the wall, and the older son blurted out, “Don’t look up at the TV.” The screen was filled with a lurid R-rated sex scene. Some of the customers were mesmerized by the action, and because employees were slow to change the channel, the man walked over and turned off the television. Burger King apologized when the man filed a police report, but he
