On Thursday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stood alongside Turkish President Recep Erdogan to announce an economic and defense partnership between the two nations, calling the agreement “a new era for Turkey and Canada.” After the nation of Iran, Turkey is the most prominent enemy of Israel on the planet. Yet as many insist that Turkey’s terror funding, expansionist goals, and violent anti-Israel rhetoric should disqualify it from NATO membership, Canada is embracing the beast with open arms, offering a defense and economic partnership.

The book of Esther, is not that the book contains prophecy; it does not. It does, however, highlight Satan’s ongoing efforts to thwart God’s redemptive plans, which continue today. There’s no sane reason for the attacks against Israel to continue in the light of repeated failures, but they do. All the ceasefires and peace initiatives eventually fail because they ignore the demonic element that drives the hatred of Israel and the Jewish people.
Every election is about more than which party wins or who occupies an office. It’s about the principles that will shape our laws, protect our freedoms, and influence the lives of our children and grandchildren. When we stay home, we don’t stop those decisions from being made. We simply leave them to someone else. So ask yourself: if people who share your convictions remain silent, whose values will shape America’s future? We cannot demand responsible government while neglecting our responsibility as citizens.
If you see a moral equivalence between the IDF and Hamas, there is a verse in Isaiah 5:20 that should be brought to your attention: “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” That verse describes precisely what we are seeing today—and it is accompanied by a warning. The bottom line is this: El-Sayed's positions on Israel raise serious concerns—and that is an understatement. I would implore you to examine his statements, consider what they mean, and make an informed choice in these upcoming midterms.
We are seeing a perfect storm over France and, to a certain extent—if not now, then very soon—over all of Western Europe. That storm is the Red/Green Axis destructive agenda in action. The French Extreme Left Party LFI (La France Insoumise) led by Jean-Luc Mélenchon has partnered with the large community of Muslims living in France–many of them born there and automatically considered as French citizens. Mr. Mélenchon knows that he will never become the French Président. All he wants is chaos, and more chaos, across all of France. This is the result of decades of open borders and immigration from North and West Africa.
On Friday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pushed back against former President Barack Obama, who accused Israel of taking Palestinian land during a visit to Northern Ireland. The Israeli PM declared that “the Jewish people are not foreign occupiers,” but have ancestral connections to this Biblical land stretching back “thousands of years.” The greatest obstacle to peace, Netanyahu said, is not Israel, but the refusal of its enemies to recognize the Jewish people's right to a sovereign state. Last time I checked, Israel not only agreed to and crafted agreements to develop Palestinian self-determination, but it has shown up to every negotiation.
And not only does the universe look designed for life, but the very laws that allow everything to exist—the laws of nature and physics mentioned throughout the ScienceDaily article—are immaterial. How do immaterial laws of nature even evolve in a material universe? How do they come about and why do they remain constant and apply to everything, everywhere in a random, chance universe? Apart from the God of the Bible, it’s impossible to even explain the existence of these laws—let alone why they are so perfect for the flourishing of life! Whether they realize it or not, by doing this study these researchers are just confirming the truth of God’s Word.
It is a turning point at which settled concepts suddenly become hazy, lose their precise contours, at which our familiar and commonly used words lose their meaning, become empty shells.” Less than 50 years later, Solzhenitsyn’s fears have been realized. Our society, including its language, is crumbling around us. The English language has been corrupted and changed to be a shadow of its former self. We must be on guard against this decay in language and work to make sure we are properly understanding the world (and words) around us.
God’s reasons involve both ultimate and immediate purposes. First, let’s look at the ultimate purpose. God provided special revelation through the prophets and Jesus Christ—the source of all prophetic revelation (Revelation 19:10). Our Lord used words, visions, dreams, miracles, and theophanies so that He could, as theologian Lit-Sen Chang stated, “reveal His divinity to His creation, display His many excellencies, and declare His glory, especially in His work of redemption.” As we witness how God’s plan for the ages unfolds, we’re meant to be astounded more and more by our wonderful Creator, Redeemer, and King.
The unholy red-green alliance is the main reason Europe is a basket case today. Mass civil unrest and civil war seem inevitable. There's no easy way out of the mess Europe's elites have created. They chose to import millions of Muslims, reject Christianity, and embrace socialism. Now the people of Europe are paying a very heavy price. Across the West, you see two nations willing to defend their civilization: the United States and Israel. Everything else in between, from Europe to Canada to Australia, is a mess.
Those familiar with Australia will know that it is often affectionately called “Down Under.” The origins of the name are obvious. Being located deep in the southern hemisphere, Australia is “down” and “under” almost all other land masses. Yet, there is also a spiritual parallel to this geographic description. Australia is going down spiritually and is suffering under deception, particularly that deception which manifests in Jew-hatred.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly known as Mormons or LDS, claims the gospel was lost in the early centuries of the church age and was restored to its fullness in 1820. New revelation was supposedly given through Joseph Smith and later "prophets," including a radically different view of Jesus. Since Christians believe that the Jesus of the Bible is Yahweh along with the Father and Spirit as part of the Trinity, there are some massive distinctions.
The greatest thing that you can do right now is to say, “Lord, here I am. Send me.” When you do that, expect Him to work in and through your life. From the moment you pray that prayer, be looking for an open door to speak up, to show up or to stand up. Most often in my own life, when I have prayed that prayer, God has not failed to present an opportunity that gets my attention. And when it does, I know He will fill my mouth with His truth to speak to that issue. It could be among my family, within the city council, a school board, our state capitol or even our nation. God has raised each of us to serve a particular purpose that will glorify Him, and I encourage you today to determine to be a person who seeks to fulfill that purpose.
An expression dating back to 1512 is: “Throwing out the baby with bath water.” The idea is that if you think part of something is bad, don’t throw it all away. Is that not what many pastors do today? Because they fear the negative results of mentioning the dreaded word “Rapture” from the pulpit, they refuse to talk about what happens when Jesus appears: our bodily transformation. The essence of our “blessed hope” goes out the window along with any mention of Jesus’ appearing. Most churches effectively silence our biblical hope in Jesus’ appearing.
Antisemitism continues to become normalized on so many levels, and it is also gaining momentum to soon become state-sponsored. The 2026 Nobel Peace Prize decision will help that transition further. In a world where good becomes evil and evil is praised, it is hard to be a person of good will, let alone a Christian. The Norwegian Nobel Committee is confident in the integrity of Ms. Pillay, so she is the recipient of the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize. Once again, the narrative wins over facts. The United Nations is worthless and obsolete, and the Nobel Prize Committee might have joined that woke social club. Next year, maybe all one will have to do is be the holder of the world record for the most time they uttered "Free Palestine" in a year, and they will win.
Hamas brutally attacked Israel. Its leaders publicly said that they would continue such attacks. Their goal, stated repeatedly, is not a "two-state solution," but Israel’s complete destruction. To this day, they and their allies repeat their genocidal goal every time they chant, “From the river to the sea,” or “Death to Israel,” or “Gas the Jews.” Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has said, “Israel has an inherent and inalienable right to defend itself.” To me, it seems self-evident that all nations have, not just the right, but the obligation to defend their people. For years, Hamas has been firing rockets into Israel. After October 7, they fired thousands of such rockets from residential buildings, mosques, schools, and even hospitals. Their actions made those areas legitimate military targets. They do this knowing that civilian deaths in high numbers help their cause.
Socialism — let’s be clear — was never really about prioritizing workers. It was merely about appealing to them in order to use them as cannon fodder to seize power, whether through violence or at the ballot box. Socialism is about taking from those who have worked, saved, and invested wisely, in order to give a portion to those whom socialists believe might become their voters. It’s about demonizing the ordinary man who is more concerned with providing for his family, saving, and raising them according to his principles — while exalting those who place the “cause” above all else. Socialism is about lying, killing, imprisoning, plundering, and exiling entire populations — if necessary — to maintain control. Those are the true fruits of a socialist system.
It was a solemn day of remembrance – yet astoundingly, vigils for the victims were met with flagrantly antisemitic protests around the world, including in New York City. The mayor of New York and his counterpart in London both marked the anniversary with statements that, after a throat-clearing mention of the October 7 attacks themselves, were devoted to defaming the Israeli government rather than honoring the victims of the pogrom. It’s just too much to ask for the people of Israel and the global Jewish diaspora to be granted even a day to mourn their dead; instead, their pain is weaponized to punish the Jewish people for daring to defend themselves.
On Wednesday, we saw a miracle in the skies. All of Israel is rejoicing, and we should be rejoicing with them. A major catastrophe was averted that would have sent shock waves around the world. A flight traveling from Dubai (United Arab Emirates) to Tel Aviv, carrying 174 passengers, including more than 100 Israelis, narrowly escaped being hijacked by the co-pilot, a citizen of the Arab Gulf nation of Oman. God is a God of miracles. Tragedy was turned into triumph.
You don’t have to deny or even question the truth of Christ’s return to miss the point of it. Many believers acknowledge that Christ will come back someday but refuse to allow His impending return to influence their daily actions and decisions. So, instead of preparing for His return and making sure their lives align with His will, they choose to do things that are wrong. They know what the Bible says but choose to ignore it. They play around with sin. They try to have their cake and eat it, too, by living as they please in the present, reasoning that they can repent in the future.
If you are newly tuning into Israel’s challenges on the world stage, it is important to know that the media’s campaign against Israel is not new. When it comes to Gaza’s partnership with the media, the same tactics persist: reinterpreting Israel's agenda, selective casualty reporting, omitting the element of terrorism, glossing the terrorists, failing to clarify combatant status, attaching misleading photos to articles, or including pictures in articles without context. We are in an age of deception.
Because most major social media platforms are headquartered in the US, the Trump Administration argues that although the laws would be specific to Australia, they would project Australian safety standards onto American users. As part of the aforementioned statement dated 22 September 2026, the US Government went on to say: “If Australia compels platforms to aggressively filter content in algorithmic feeds to satisfy a government mandate, and such filtering draws in protected speech, the effect on a disfavored speaker or media source’s reach would not be meaningfully different than outright removal. The U.S. government would likely consider such a measure as facilitating censorship.”
Are European Jewish identity and freedom circling the drain? How much longer before we see a mass exodus to Eretz Yisrael, forced by the unlivable conditions experienced in Europe? Norway was trying to pass a law in mid-September 2026 that would criminalize anyone doing business with Israeli settlements in Judea/Samaria (also known as the West Bank). The law is currently being discussed in the Norwegian Parliament. Even if it doesn't pass right now, it is a symptom of a much bigger problem; Jews and those supporting them are slowly being outlawed. If passed, that law would give Norway the right to incarcerate people for up to three years. When I first heard of that, I got very concerned. As it turned out, the virus is spreading fast and reaching other parts of Europe.
No matter which way the political winds blow or public opinion sways, I will not back up, stand down or shut up when it comes to preaching that there is “no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). In an age where moral relativism runs amok and tolerance for everything except God’s Word is praised, we need more Christians who will live boldly for Christ regardless of opposition or retribution.
Fewer than one-fourth of the 36 schools that responded were clearly young-earth creationist, and most of them were quite small seminaries. In their M. Div. programs for future pastors, only two had a required course on Genesis that addressed the creation-evolution issue. Three others had an elective on Genesis, but one of those didn’t address the creation-evolution controversy. Only three had a required course on apologetics, and one of those didn’t address the origins debate. Again, the main problem is that most pastors have never recognized and carefully considered the foundational issues at stake here. Few books provide pastors with clear arguments explaining why compromise on the history of Genesis 1–11 undermines people’s trust in the truth, clarity, and authority of Scripture, and ultimately undermines the foundation of the gospel itself.
“The greatest thing that you can have in an election is high contrast,” Bachmann noted. “I have never in my lifetime seen a higher contrast than this fall with what the two different political camps in America are offering.” “Socialism has never worked anywhere. It's an abject failure. All socialism does is consume. It doesn't produce anything,” she emphasized. “Socialism is on the ballot… When you look at what it is that people have to choose from, it's freedom [vs enslaving ideologies].”
Christians have been persecuted more than any other religious group. And it’s not just confined to atheistic or Islamic countries. We’re starting to see more and more persecution in the United States. We see it in the woke ideology that has infiltrated our education system. We see it permeating the military. We see it being spread by the media. I describe it as an “ABC culture”: Anything But Christ. When you stand up and say, “I’m a Christian,” you can expect pushback, resistance, and even persecution. Paul said, “Everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution” (2 Timothy 3:12). That’s a promise of God we rarely claim.
To see just how delusional our world has become, consider the way that many politicians and world leaders are protecting and even promoting the practice of Islam, which refuses to submit to non-Muslim governmental systems and is not simply a religion but a political system as well, and promotes Sharia law. Yet Western society blindly demands the coexistence of all belief systems while pushing for the extinction of the one that stands for truth, the Christian faith.
The message being sent is deliberate and unmistakable. Parents may homeschool, perhaps, but only if they submit to the state’s preferred social, political, theological, and sexual doctrines. Refuse, and you risk fines, loss of custody, or prison. This is not neutral education policy—it is the weaponization of law to enforce ideological conformity and diminish the independent family. And if not stopped, it will be coming to America, too. In fact, powerful forces are already working to regulate and then abolish home education entirely.
One of the greatest dangers facing the evangelical church today may not be persecution from the outside, but Biblical illiteracy on the inside. We live in an age when Christians have unprecedented access to Scripture. The Bible is available in print, online, through apps, podcasts, audio Bibles, and countless translations. Yet access to the Bible does not necessarily mean knowledge of the Bible.
Over the next six weeks, decisions will be made that will determine the future course of the entire free world. That is no exaggeration. Will the West choose faith, family, freedom, and common sense, or will it choose socialism, secularism, separation, and a large dose of Islam mixed in? The United States, under President Trump, has been the firewall, an outpost of sanity, and a lone defender of Judeo-Christian Western civilization. That is all on the line on November 3rd, when Americans head to the polls and vote in the midterm elections.
Dispensational Premillennialism distinctly holds that God has a positive future for the nation of Israel yet to be realized in the Millennium, the 1,000-year reign of Jesus Christ on Earth. The church has not replaced Israel. God’s promises to Abraham and David still hold. They were not fulfilled in the Old Testament era, nor spiritually in the church. This view uses a consistent, literal interpretive method, which allows for non-literal elements, but only when justifiable in the context.
This tragic story is the natural consequence of the increasing commodification of children and putting adult desire over the rights of children. We see it with abortion, where a woman’s supposed “right to choose” trumps the right to life of her unborn child. We see it with traditional IVF and other reproductive technologies (which are very hard to do in a pro-life way), where babies are routinely discarded because they don’t “make the grade,” they have a genetic abnormality, they are the “wrong” sex, or the family is simply done having children. And we see it with the creation of LGBTQ families, where children are created to be purposefully deprived of either their mother or their father.
