In Israel’s Defense…

Israel’s attack on Hezbollah shocked the world. Why? Both the US State Department and the United Nations seemed appalled that Israel would attack an enemy that has fired close to 10,000 missiles at its citizens since October 7th of last year. What’s surprising about that? Do they think Jews should gently acquiesce when led from ghettos to gas chambers? Should the world’s only Jewish state be the one nation not allowed to defend itself? Such thinking is distorted, bizarre, and

United Nations Attacks Israel

The weapons of war do not consist solely of missiles and guns. They also exist in the form of words and communication. A verbal assault can be more significant than a missile barrage. The United Nations has no standing army. But it still chooses sides and tries to direct the outcome of conflicts. In the conflict between Iran’s proxies and Israel, the UN has chosen to become a propaganda agent for some of the worst terror groups in history. Both

Palestinian Victims

The Palestinian people really are victims. Primarily, they are the victims of ruthless brain washing and mental conditioning. Part of their extreme ignorance is self-imposed, but much of it is forced on them by the regime they live under. A speaker at a Palestinian funeral in 2023 said, “A people in which a mother accompanies her martyr son with sounds of joy will never be defeated…. We love death like our enemies love life.” That’s not an isolated quote. Palestinian

New Alliances

50,000 mosques in Iran have now closed as people have abandoned Islam in droves, sick of the evil Islamic regime they’ve suffered under. Now many are turning to Jesus instead. We are praying that a similar phenomenon will happen in Gaza as disillusionment with Hamas becomes more widespread. The nations around Israel have created hostile battle lines on every side, much as described in Psalm 83, but we need to also keep in mind the seismic developments of the Abraham

The Middle-East Fuse Has Been Lit

Iran’s promised attack on Israel arrived Friday, April 12th. The world now holds its breath, fearful that an Israeli reprisal will keep that volatile region spiraling toward a greater war. I believe Bible prophecy indicates that the present conflict will not immediately turn into the global conflagration which so many now fear. But it is part of a pattern that will eventually lead to Armageddon. Before Friday’s attack, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz wrote on social media, “If Iran attacks

Nations Feeling Restless

The nations of planet earth are presently engaged in a deadly game of brinksmanship. It’s happening on every continent. In Europe, Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine threatens to engulf the region. And European wars have a tendency to become world wars. Finland and Sweden, two previously neutral countries, recently joined NATO. Sweden had been neutral since the early 1800s. It resisted taking sides in World Wars I and II, as well as the Cold War. But not anymore. Sweden

A Battle That Didn’t Begin in 2023

Israel declaring war on Hamas is much closer to the end of the story than the beginning. We have a tendency to snapshot the latest incidents and draw conclusions based on recent events. Using that philosophy in the case of Israel and Palestine or Israel and Gaza, or Israel and Hamas leaves out crucial background information that will ultimately lead us to form incorrect conclusions. This battle didn’t start on October 7, 2023, or in 1973, or in 1948. This

Gog, Magog, and Ukraine

In a recent column entitled, “Rumors of War,” I explained why the Russian-led invasion of Israel detailed in Ezekiel 38 and 39 will include Ukraine. These passages give the leader of this coalition the symbolic name, “Gog.” Could Putin be Gog? He sure could. Is he? We simply don’t know. Some believe that he is, and that the choice to go into Ukraine was not really his at all. They say God is “compelling” him. Ezekiel 38:4 speaks of God

UN Says Disasters on the Increase

It’s not your imagination. Things are bad—as bad as you thought—and maybe worse. It might not be a surprise to hear me say it, but how about hearing it from the United Nations? Last week the UN Office of Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) released a stunning report. According to UNDRR, “between 350 and 500 medium- to large-scale disasters took place every year over the past two decades.” That’s a mind-boggling Five times the disaster-rate of previous decades. And, they say,

World Destabilization

At a July 8th news conference, a reporter asked President Biden if a Taliban takeover of Afghanistan was inevitable. The President answered that was not inevitable. As evidence, he said, “The Afghan troops have 300,000 well-equipped — as well-equipped as any army in the world — and an air force against something like 75,000 Taliban.” Three hundred thousand well-equipped, well-trained members of the Afghan military versus 75,000 ragtag Taliban. We have to assume that the President of the United States got those
