Israel Ranked 8th Most Powerful Country in the World Throughout 2019

The Spectator Index has recognized the Jewish state of Israel as the 8th most powerful country in the world; Additionally, Israel is ranked 29th on the world’s best countries list; Report: For its relatively small size, the country has played a large role in global affairs.


In a recent ranking by ‘The Spectator Index’, Israel is ranked as the 8th most powerful country in the world. Additionally, the Jewish state was ranked 29th on the world’s best countries list by a report that was conducted earlier in 2019. As for their power ranking, the countries that outrank Israel, according to this Survey, are the US, Russia, China, Germany, the UK, France, Japan-in this exact order. Following Israel is Saudi Arabia, South Korea, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The power ranking is determined based on five key elements-military strength, economic impact, political impact, a nation’s leader, and worldwide alliances. Regarding Israel, a report released earlier in 2019 stated, “For its relatively small size, the country has played a large role in global affairs. The country has a strong economy, landmarks of significance to several religions, and strained relationships with many of its Arab neighbors.”

Of course, the primary reason for “strained” relationships with countries in the region, comes from the hostility of these other nations who would prefer that the Jewish state simply didn’t exist. As for many religions claiming significant landmarks, the land of Israel only supports the existence of one Being-the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; the God of Israel.

On a 1-10 scale, Israel’s military scored a 9.9. As for their alliances around the world, a 6.5. The Jewish state’s political influence scored a 7.6.

Marxism’s Unyielding Aim To Overturn Western And Christian Foundations

Communism has never gone away. It’s still with us today. It is a worldview that seeks to replace God, undermine the family, abolish private property, and destroy biblical morality—and it’s doing a very good job at that. As Christians, we shouldn’t be surprised. The Bible tells us there is a spiritual battle behind every false ideology. That’s why we must know history, know our Bible, and recognize that ideas have consequences. If we’re not careful, communists will take over America. The Communist Party says exactly what it intends to do. It tells you what it wants to do. The tragedy is that too many people don’t pay attention until it’s too late.

Standing With Boldness: Why Has Christian Higher Education Surrendered Its Biblical Worldview To The Culture?

The story is so common that it almost seems inevitable: A college or university is founded as an expressly Biblical institution, but at some point it changes. Some might become completely secular; others may introduce liberal theology or progressive social policies. Harvard, Yale and Princeton are well-known examples; in fact, seven of the eight Ivy League schools in the U.S. were founded to train pastors but left behind that mission long ago. In the 1970s, Harold Lindsell sounded an alarm in his book The Battle for the Bible, in which he called out seemingly evangelical institutions that had abandoned the infallibility of Scripture. That abandonment, Lindsell argued, “always and ever opens the door to further departures from the faith.”

The Slippery Slope Of Australia’s Spirituality: A Deliberate Campaign Of Atheism

On 29 July 2026, the church that I pastor played host for the Brisbane leg of a tour of Australia by Amir Tsarfati and Pastor Barry Stagner. On that blessed evening, over 1,000 people gathered together for praise, powerful preaching, prayer, and of course, photos with these two beloved servants of God. Even though we hired a large venue for the evening, seating was limited. This meant that, sadly, many missed out on being able to attend. One such person who was not able to secure tickets remarked that it would be wonderful if this was the dilemma faced by every Bible-believing church in Australia on a Sunday morning. Yet Australia's overall spiritual landscape suggest a disturbing deterioration away from Biblical belief.
