In the last of this series, I would like to focus on where too many of our U.S. citizens stand regarding Jesus. Sometimes, even Christians who supposedly believe in Jesus as our Lord and Savior, need a reality check. Mark Hall of Casting Crowns wrote words that are sobering and should wake up the country to its lackadaisical attitude when it comes to where our lives should be focused, where our priorities should lie, and not just on Sundays. This
When Jesus was describing conditions just previous to the end of this Age, He said “you will hear of wars and rumors of war.” (Matthew 24:6) In a broad sense, that’s true of all years. But 2017 was different. It was rife with rumors of warfare at a level perhaps never seen on earth before. Two nations figured prominently in those threats. One or both of them may one day make up part of an alliance known in Biblical prophecy
President Donald Trump infuriated the Left and irritated some of our western allies. What did he do that was so terrible? He told the truth. He announced to the world that Iran is not adhering to its part of the bargain in the so-called “Iran nuclear deal.” So he said that he will no longer “certify” to the U.S. Congress that Iran is complying with the deal. He’s only saying something the West has known since the day the agreement
Many on the Left have tried to paint the temporary ban prohibiting travel into the U.S. from those specific nations as a “Muslim ban.” Either they are terribly uninformed or they are lying. My vote goes for lying. The seven nations on the list are Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. Seven nations specified by the previous administration. It bans entry of all travelers from those nations, not just Muslims. The executive order doesn’t even mention Muslims. The
It’s a funny thing. During the primaries, many Christians opposed Donald Trump because he wasn’t “Christian” enough. But since he won the presidential election, some of those Christians have decided that these may not be the end-times after all. They place so much hope in President-Elect Trump that they foresee only good things happening in the United States and the world. And it’s true that some positive things have already taken place. Now, I don’t know how the President-Elect will
Political Correctness has … turned Amnesty International into Amnesty Hypocritical. It is ironic that Islam is probably the greatest beneficiary of Political Correctness. Yet Islam is hostile to the main tenets of Political Correctness. Homosexuals once held the highest level of “protected status” among the politically correct. But it now seems that the gay community’s “most protected” status has been replaced by love of Mohammed. His religion despises, outlaws, and punishes gays. It regards women as commodities, to be bought and
Last month, we learned that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas (code name “mole”) was on the KGB payroll in the 1980s, along with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Following, Hal Lindsey describes what this means in terms of Biblical Prophesy. The information was discovered in a British archive of KGB agents from that period. Though the Palestinian Authority is trying to deny it, it makes sense. Abbas headed a Palestinian-Soviet friendship foundation during that time. And now that the US is turning
North Korea and its weapons testing has been the subject of past UN Security Council meetings. And though official action has been adopted, nothing of any great consequence has ever resulted. But North Korea’s most recent weapons testing is different for a couple of reasons. First, the nuclear devices NK exploded a few days ago were more powerful than anything they’ve tested before. Probably because the North Koreans claim to have developed hydrogen bombs. Second, it now appears that North
[In August] the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) held its Churchwide Assembly. At that gathering, the delegates representing the individual congregations agreed to join their voices and efforts together to urge America to force Israel to walk the plank. I’m on old sailor, so that’s how I would describe it. You may choose to say, “…urge America to force Israel to commit national suicide.” Either way, the result is the same. The ELCA has now joined the Boycott, Divestment, and
“It’s pretty amazing how quickly we got here, to a place in society where those of faith are to be silenced by the loud and powerful few; where one’s conscience counts only if it reflects the extreme views of the political elite.” This week, Cathi Herrod, President of Center for Arizona Policy, wrote this news update on California’s SB 1146, a bill that would have forced religious universities in California to abandon biblical teachings about human sexuality or lose state-funded scholarships
