The Presence Of Mockers, Outside And Inside The Church, Is Not Merely A Cultural Trend—It’s Prophetic
As the return of Jesus draws closer, few things should surprise believers more than the increasing hostility toward biblical truth. Scripture tells us plainly that mockers and scoffers will emerge as a defining characteristic of the last days. While we expect ridicule from a world that rejects God, what may be more shocking—and heartbreaking—is when scoffing arises from within the church itself. This reality demands our attention, discernment, and biblical response. Scoffers are not merely casual skeptics; they openly ridicule biblical teaching …

UK suspends some intelligence sharing with the US while the EC plans an EU-wide intelligence agency
The UK suspends some intelligence sharing with the US. On the same day, it emerges that the European Commission is planning a centralised EU-wide intelligence agency.

I guess I haven’t been paying enough attention, at least not to the extent I thought.

The other night, I was listening to talk-show host and attorney Mark Levin—his program that I don’t often catch. He was coming hard against some in this nation who are calling Christians and Jews in support of Israel evil, or at least ignorantly misdirected. Specifically, he was talking angrily against podcast host Tucker Carlson, former star of Fox News.

Levin said Carlson and a guest on his podcast were saying they hated Christian and Jewish Zionists more than any others in the entire Israel-vs-its-enemies matter. Levin then played the audio of Tucker Carlson saying this directly.

There’s no doubt about it. Unless AI was used, Carlson said exactly that—that he hated these Christian Zionists, etc., more than any of the other actors within that matter.

Levin then expressed his amazement and anger that Carlson apparently hates us more than the anti-Semitic Muslim terrorists, Hamas, and all the rest.

This sent my mind in the direction of: Why does Carlson, whom I’ve always considered a sound thinker on issues and events of our time, make such a hateful anti-Semitic rant? Then I researched the most general definition of Zionism. Here is what I found:

Being a Zionist means supporting the movement for Jewish self-determination and the right of the Jewish people to a homeland in their historic homeland, Israel. Zionism, which arose in the late 19th century due to Anti-Semitism, advocates for the development and protection of a Jewish nation. The specific interpretations of this can vary, from supporting the state of Israel’s existence to supporting specific policies or having different views on its borders, but at its core, it is rooted in the belief that Jews should have a state and a place to live free from persecution.

Why would Carlson, a conservative pundit of such renown, say he hates a Christian or a Jewish person who is a Zionist?

I still don’t have an answer to this perplexing query. The thing I can imagine is that Carlson and the guest he was interviewing, according to Mark Levin, were against the one clause within the definition of Zionism I found as follows: “Supporting specific policies or having different views on its borders.”

Carlson is, I surmise, against the Israeli government and all who believe the nation has exclusive right to the land they believe God granted that people and the nation God said would possess and occupy that land in perpetuity once it’s returned according to biblical prophecy.

Carlson has since apologized for his statement. But the damage done by his reckless rant in ramping up anti-Semitism can’t be recalled.

No matter how it is parsed, to deny that God’s Word says the God of Heaven hasn’t guaranteed the Jews—Israel—that land in its total geographic configuration is in egregious error. Much more, this denial is dangerous, even deadly, to those who deny that truth.

To have Levin, a practicing Orthodox Jew, I presume, point this out in such accurate and passionate terms is amazing—and refreshing to hear. Many Christian pastors completely ignore the entire subject, seeking to just stick to biblical fundamentalism in preaching God’s love and precepts of how to conduct life.

As a matter of fact, Levin implored Christian pastors to step up and defend Israel in the hate-filled, anti-Semitic environment of today. He declared that the Bible says God blesses those who bless Israel and curses those who curse it. He had his Bible and his eschatology correct.

I realize that, being a believer in Judaism and not in Christ as Messiah and Savior, he is in fatal error himself. But it is more than fascinating to hear him defend even Christian Zionists and the belief in Christ as Savior and Messiah.

Israel today stands in the bullseye of rage. This is true in the case of being targeted by the Jewish state’s perennial antagonists, the Arab and Persian Islamist enemies. It is true in the case of the entire international community, whose constituent nations see Israel as the congestive blockage to regional and world peace. But it is the growing antagonism by leftist United States congressional and judicial operatives, along with all others who “hate” those who support Israel’s God-given right to the land, that is most disconcerting while this beleaguered planet wobbles toward a time of unprecedented trouble.

The coming time of unparalleled strife that will bring all nations to Armageddon is termed “the time of Jacob’s trouble”:

“Alas! For that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jeremiah 30:7a).

And it is Jacob’s trouble—the prophesied end-of-days, dastardly treatment of Israel by the nations of earth—that will cause God to bring them to Armageddon. This is what the prophet Joel says:

“I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land” (Joel 3:2).

Armageddon Beckons

This will be the gathering of the nations of Earth predicted in the book of Revelation:

“For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty…. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon” (Revelation 16:14, 16).

It will be the culmination of humankind dealing treacherously with God’s chosen people. The promise the Lord made to Abraham includes severe repercussions for anyone who would curse the progeny of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob:

“And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” (Genesis 12:3).

Tragically, the refusal to educate generations following World War II on the truth about the insane treatment of the house of Israel is leading to a future time of even greater atrocities, thus judgment, according to God’s Word. The Lord will react violently—according to Bible prophecy—more so even than He reacted to the death-dealing of the Nazi demoniacs:

“The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.

And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it…. It shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem” (Zechariah 12:1-3, 29).

If America joins the rest of Earth’s nations in the gathering against Israel, as prophesied in Zechariah 12:1-3, its betrayal will mean America’s doom. All nations that come against the Jewish state, God says, will be cut to pieces. Israel, on the other hand, will remain—no matter the betrayal it experiences in the human realm.

God declares this in the strongest possible terminology:

“This is what the Lord says, ‘He who appoints the sun to shine by day, Who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar–the Lord Almighty is His Name; Only if these ordinances vanish from My sight,’ declares the Lord, ‘will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before Me’” (Jeremiah 31:35-36).
