Instead of redefining truth, postmodernists have merely changed their allegiance. They have rejected the absolute authority of Almighty God and have made themselves the absolute authority for all matters of morality, purpose and destiny. Do away with the masquerade of relativism – behind all of this is a new religion of self-worship.    

In the most recent study, Barna found that “43% of men reported attending church weekly, compared with 36% of women.” This is the largest gap in church attendance between men and women since Barna first began tracking this decades ago. And what’s really interesting is which young men are “leading the way in church attendance”: “married fathers with children under 18.”

When it comes to Bible prophecy, one of the dismissive criticisms of scoffers is that generations of Christians have come and gone without the promise of Jesus’ coming being fulfilled. Skeptical of the “practical” value of anticipating Jesus’ soon return, they will ask, “What’s the point?” Were they able to testify to us still, I have every confidence that those who have gone to be with the Lord after longing for the Rapture in this life would strongly encourage us to share the anticipation they exemplified.

After the assassination of Christian political activist Charlie Kirk, Bible sales surged in the U.S., adding to an already growing demand for Bibles among young and old.  September showed a 36% increase in Bible copy sales in comparison to September 2024. Some 2.4 million Bibles were sold in September 2025, up from 1.5 million in August. Through August, each month in 2025 had ranged between 1.2 to 1.6 million sold, book tracker Circana BookScan found.

What could have become a lit fuse on a powder keg quickly turned into a contrast along political and ideological lines. No mass riots, or burned cities, or rampant violence ensued as Kirk’s supporters responded in outrage. Instead, those who appreciated Charlie Kirk’s bold assertion of Christian faith and Conservative policies held prayer vigils and peaceful tributes. It was the Left that could not help itself from heaping scorn on the murdered man and even celebrating his murder.

“This case isn’t about books; it’s about public officials telling an employee that he isn’t allowed to express a view that differs from their own,” said ADF Senior Counsel Tyson Langhofer, director of the ADF Center for Academic Freedom. “Our legal system is built on the truth that the government can’t silence a speaker just because it disapproves of what he says."

If fewer than half of professing believers can identify the God-ordained structure of the home, how can the Church stand against the moral storms of the last days? To be pro-family and pro-life are not political stances—they are foundational biblical convictions rooted in the very nature and image of God.

The class description for Khubchandani’s class on “Queer Ethnography” is very revealing. “This class introduces students in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies to ethnographic research methods as they pertain to exploring questions of bodies, pleasure, power, and desire,” the website reads, without defining “women.”

Another week has gone by, and it appears that my country is back at war. Or maybe it isn’t. It’s so hard to tell these days. In one moment, we have a big celebration over the signing of a ceasefire agreement. We see our living hostages come home in a semi-timely manner, according to the agreed-to terms. The remains of our beloved deceased hostages also start coming in. They’re late and the delivery is sporadic, but at least it’s something. The next thing I know, I’m reading about our soldiers being killed again in Gaza.

When it comes to God’s sovereignty, the Enemy continues to sell two great lies—and people continue to buy them. The first is as old as Babel itself (Gen. 11). It is the notion that nations are masters of their own fate. The second is that if the nations try hard enough, they can destroy Israel (Ps. 83:4). However, God’s Word stands against both of these lies.

But let’s be clear: there will be no enduring peace in the Middle East so long as those who deny Israel’s right to exist are allowed to operate within her borders — harboring the illusion that terrorism and agitation will eventually yield them a state carved from the heart of Israel.

After the Rafah incident, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu immediately ordered a halt of humanitarian aid but has since recommenced the supplies. Qatar quickly criticized Israel, neglecting the violent impetus perpetrated by Hamas and the way the terrorist group consistently breaks the agreement in provocative and deadly ways.

Hurricane Melissa has rapidly strengthened into a Category 5 storm, with wind speeds of 175 mph. Jamaica is preparing to bear the brunt of slow-moving Melissa, which is forecast to be the strongest storm ever to hit the country. Catastrophic winds, extreme storm surge, and as much as 40 inches of rain could devastate the island nation.

In 1941, Auschwitz, the largest Nazi concentration camp in Europe, became a place of unspeakable evil. It was there that Holocaust victims were tattooed with identification numbers—initially on the chest, later on the inner forearm. Upon arrival, prisoners faced a gruesome selektion process: those sent to the right went immediately to the gas chambers, while those to the left were stripped, shaved, and sent into forced labor. Their dignity, identity, and freedom were stolen—reduced to a number burned into their flesh. What was once forced upon humanity under tyranny may soon be welcomed under convenience.

“We’re just grateful that even though all these things are going on, we have the opportunity to serve,” Sarcos said. “Our networks are in place, even though they are suffering, too, and they are ready to minister to families and grateful for the opportunity to serve their own people and own community. Communities are so encouraged by the presence of Samaritan’s Purse and our churches.”

The Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT) is deploying crisis-trained chaplains near Nashville, Tennessee, where multiple casualties have been reported following a blast at an explosives manufacturing plant. As of Saturday morning, 18 people are unaccounted for. 

A person’s faith is immature because they are lazy or “dull of hearing” (v. 11). There is no drive or initiative, and this prevents understanding. They sat and listened, but were not paying attention and applying what they had learned from God’s Word.

The reality of Jesus’s soon return is a purifying power in the Christian’s life. Practically speaking, that means living a transformed life that is passionate for Christ and militant toward defeating the temptations and sinful allurements that face every generation of believers. Our love for Christ’s return is the best accelerant for having a hot heart toward God. 

The second coming of Christ dominates the Bible; it's referenced 1,845 times. Next to faith, no subject is more discussed in Scripture. For every mention of the first coming, the second coming is mentioned eight times. For every time the atonement is mentioned, the second coming is mentioned twice. Jesus personally referred to His second coming twenty-one times, and we're urged to be ready for His coming no less than fifty times in Scripture.

There are many people today that know that Bible prophecy is true. They know that God has foretold many of the events that are happening around us. But yet they continue to live as they please. The attitude is, "Hey, everything is the same." But you know what, the Lord’s coming draws closer every day.

Like iron thrust into a refiner’s fire meant to reveal and eliminate impurities, reemerging anew lighter, stronger, and more durable, having been transformed into steel, God uses the troublesome circumstances in our lives to forge strength, purify our character, and increase our capacity to endure the onslaught of tribulations in a world that is hostile to Christ. And that’s the goal, right?
