TRENDING:

Markell: Denouncing Prayer and Departing From God, Minneapolis Regularly Slips Into Lunacy And Tragedy

Jan Markell

Minneapolis has been my hometown all my life. For generations, people have enjoyed its beauty and its lakes, which we safely hiked around. There are thousands of wonderful believers here! I am so grateful that Minneapolis is the home of an incredible church that set my path for life, as it was a truth-telling, prophecy-oriented church.

Nonetheless, Minneapolis is obviously a target for dark forces. And they are intensifying as we trend towards the Tribulation.

One hundred years ago, the Communist Party USA targeted the upper Midwest—and especially the Twin Cities, Chicago, Madison, and Milwaukee, WI to be at the center of their dark agenda.

Additionally, Minneapolis/St. Paul is the gay capital of America, along with San Francisco.

We have so many Somalis that I call this city today Mogadishu on the Mississippi. Most are in full Islamic garb. Women (or potentially male terrorists) roam our streets in full burkas and could be carrying lethal weapons! So much for our casual walks around our lakes.

Our lunatic leftist politicians make this a sanctuary state for the bad guys. Good people are on their own, as our police retire early. Since George Floyd of 2020, our police department has dwindled so badly that no one is safe inside or outside of their homes.

One of our suburbs—Anoka—is the Halloween capital of the world. What an embarrassing honor! I believe those evil spirits linger in our area year-round and haunt us—literally.

I have often apologized that whenever you hear about Minneapolis, it is in conjunction with a tragedy or debauchery. 

But why? Is it strictly because the Bible says that “In the last days, evil will wax worse and worse”? (II Timothy 3:13). That verse sure comes to my mind almost daily! And without a doubt, it plays a big role.

What comes with the above evil is a hatred of God. That breeds lunacy: guns are the fault of these tragedies. Lunacy that denounces prayer—partly because liberalism is the leftist religion. Liberalism provides its altar of worship. And Christians, Jews, and conservatives are “oppressors.”

Note Jenn Psaki’s comments: “Prayer is not freaking enough. Prayer does not end school shootings. Prayers do not make parents feel safe sending their kids to school. Prayer does not bring these kids back. Enough with the thoughts and prayers.”

Seriously, Jenn? Some day you will circle back from that, but it may be too late.

And while Mayor Frey was denouncing “thoughts and prayers,” I was reminded that he signed the ordinance permitting the Muslim call to prayer to be broadcast from the city’s mosques five times a day. God notices this kind of evil and insanity.

The shooter also denounced “filthy Zionist Jews.” I have said for years that the primary target in the last days will be “people of the book”—Jews and Christians. The cross will always be in the crosshairs. Jew hatred is at 1930s levels.

This was the atmosphere during the time of Noah, and look what happened. The same is about to happen again. God is going to say “enough is enough” and remove the righteous. He will leave the God-haters behind, at which time some will beg for mercy. Some of those left behind may learn to pray. Some will actually call on the Name of the Lord and renounce this evil.

For many, it will be too late. Too many will curse God even more. (Revelation 16:21)

But remember, God is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9)

Pray for this city. Tragedy opens hearts. Thoughts drift towards eternity, realizing life is so short and can be cut even shorter by tragedy.

Never-Ending Political Violence: What Is Happening In America?

“The assassination culture we’re seeing in America right now is not a problem coming from ‘both sides of the aisle.’ Yet this is the claim the mainstream media runs with every time there is an attempt on a conservative’s life, and there have been many in recent years,“ he underscored. “Large segments among the media, Democrat politicians, and left-wing influencers all agree that Donald Trump is a ‘fascist’ and an ‘imminent threat to our nation who must be stopped.’ They’ve said so publicly, repeatedly, then express shock when one of their followers takes up arms and tries to kill a man they’ve dubbed a ‘modern-day Hitler.’”

The Father Of Lies: If We Want To Expose And Oppose Antisemitism, We Must First Understand Its Source

There seems to be absolutely no limits to the creativity used to demonize Israel and the Jewish people. What is even more concerning is the number of people who actually buy those lies as truth. It is helpful to understand the real source of all this toxic rhetoric if we want to expose and oppose antisemitism.

Prophetic Pieces: As Putin Ups The Ante In The Arms Race, Russia Considers Providing Refuge To Top Iranian Leaders

Prophetic events in the end times right now are casting their shadows over the Middle East like never before. Preparations for the Gog Magog coalition prophesied in Ezekiel 38 and 39 are increasing and intensifying. Written 2,500 years ago by Ezekiel, these chapters prophesy an end-time invasion of Israel led by the nations of Russia, Iran, and Turkey. Two significant developments showcase that the prophetic pieces are falling perfectly into place.
