El-Sayed’s defense of Sharia law stance sparks online eruption from Christians, conservatives: ‘He’s done’
Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed sparked controversy on social media Monday night after comparing Sharia law to Christian canon law during an interview with Fox News anchor Jesse Watters. “He lies and says no one is trying to push Sharia (they are), and draws a false equivalency to Christian Canon law,” Andrew Kolvet, executive producer of “The Charlie Kirk Show,” posted on X. “Canon law determines how Christian leaders, churches, and Christians should live, but Canon law is limited to affairs of the Church (spiritual penalties). Canon law grants great autonomy to the state.”

Is ICE Investigating Ilhan Omar? Trump ‘Truths’ Report On Withheld Fraud-Probe Records
President Donald Trump drew fresh attention to a long-running controversy on Sunday when he reposted a Just the News article on Truth Social headlined “ICE refuses to disclose records on Ilhan Omar fraud probe, cites ongoing ‘enforcement proceedings.'” His decision to amplify the report, without comment, renewed scrutiny of allegations that have dogged Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) for years – though ICE’s response stops short of confirming she is personally the target of any active proceeding. The Trump administration has said for months it possesses evidence that Omar committed immigration fraud.

Knesset member smashes Palestinian terror memorials as IDF warns Jewish violence could ‘ignite Judea & Samaria’ 
Military officials have warned Israel’s political leadership that violent attacks by radical Jewish settler groups, like the events in Qusra over the past weeks, could ignite Judea and Samaria in a new wave of Palestinian violence and terror, Israeli media reported Monday. But the very next morning, Knesset Member Zvi Sukkot (Religious Zionism) triggered another wave of outrage after footage of him demolishing a memorial for terrorists in a Palestinian town went viral. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized Sukkot for taking the law “into his own hands” and interfering with the IDF’s mission against terrorism.

The State Department says the US is set for the largest mass visa revocation in history, targeting up to 200,000 foreigners.
Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau called out the loophole directly on social media: “People in the US and all over the world are fed up with bogus asylum claims. Asylum isn’t supposed to be a loophole to circumvent immigration law.” He highlighted a clear example: a foreign national who arrived on a tourist visa back in 2015 and promptly claimed asylum, effectively bypassing the front door that millions of law-abiding immigrants wait in line to enter. Now, under the Trump administration, the rule of law was being restored. In coordination with the Department of Homeland Security, the State Department prepared to execute the largest single mass visa revocation in American history, targeting up to 200,000 tourist and business visas issued between 2016 and 2026

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Tuesday that the IDF will remain on Mount Hermon and in the security zone in Syria as long as jihadist threats persist, while also warning against Turkish actions that Israel considers a threat to its security. “We will not move from Mount Hermon and the security zone as long as there are jihadist threats to the State of Israel,” Katz said during a visit to Mount Hermon.

Iran in midst of humanitarian crisis ‘of epic proportions,’ says Trump
President Donald Trump on Tuesday accused Iran’s government of failing to pay large segments of its armed forces while continuing a deadly crackdown against its own population, declaring that the country’s worsening humanitarian crisis “must be stopped, NOW.” Trump issued the warning in a Truth Social post amid mounting signs of severe economic distress inside Iran and just one day after his administration formally launched a sweeping new campaign aimed at cutting Tehran off from its remaining sources of revenue.

Secret Service investigating Iranian video targeting Barron Trump
The US Secret Service is aware of the video and investigates anything that can be perceived as a threat toward our protectees,” Secret Service spokesperson Nate Herring said in a statement to NewsNation. “Out of concern for operational security, we do not discuss matters of protective intelligence,” Herring added. The Secret Service statement followed the broadcast of a video by Iranian state television targeting Barron, the 20-year-old son of President Donald Trump.

The Media Continues to Withhold Key Details on Hamas’ Refusal to Disarm
With media outlets, and particularly NBC, the devil is in the lack of details. In the Aug. 17 article, “Kushner and Netanyahu agree US general should oversee Hamas ‘demilitarization,’ source says,” NBC reporters Chantal Da Silva and Matt Bradley have once again attempted to portray Israel as the sole obstacle to a magically attainable peace in the Gaza Strip while refusing to report on incessant Hamas ceasefire violations inhibiting the deal’s progress. Da Silva has a history of withholding context about the truce. In early July, she asserted that the disarmament of Hamas was “a key requirement by Israel,” while omitting that the disarmament requirement is enshrined in UN Security Council Resolution 2803 and was crafted by the US-led Board of Peace.

EARTH-DIRECTED FLARE AND CME:

If so, this could create a high-latitude photo-op for auroras and the crimson Moon.

Knowing God: Encouragement in the Opposition, Part 1 :: By Angela Scohy

Published on: by RR10 Category:General Articles

If we’re looking for ways to be prepared to give a reason for the hope we have, one way to do it is to look for the promises, nature, character, and attributes of God through the Word of Jesus and His prophets, and then look for everything we see in opposition, which would be “anti-Christ.”

Everything we see happening in Revelation, which will occur during the tribulation, is a good place to start; it’s easy to see what doesn’t fit in with the gifts and promises we’re given. It’s encouraging proof of a pre-tribulation deliverance (rapture).

So here we go:

One of the big oppositions is that we’re exhorted and specifically commanded not to fear hundreds of times. The opposition to that is that the tribulation will be terror and torment for those on Earth during that time. He does not want this for us! We’re not called to fear – we’re called to soundness, health, safety, and peace. We should obey this command and only believe Him, because if we do, we’ll be blessed.

Mark 5:36 “As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, ‘Do not be afraid; only believe.’”

Isaiah 41:10 “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’”

Here is the opposition:

Isaiah 2:19 “They shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, from the terror of the Lord and the glory of His majesty, when He arises to shake the earth mightily.”

The tribulation begins with the sudden destruction and the thief breaking into the house. However, Jesus has told us that although the thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy, He came so that we’d have abundant – and eternal – life. Eternal life doesn’t mean we’re saved, and then unsaved, turned over to the devil, and then saved again. We don’t turn back, as there is no shadow of turning with Jesus. We go on a straight path upward and forward into salvation – not down and backwards. Those in His name are not falling away (apostasia).

John 10:9-10 “I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”

In addition, the thief can’t break into our house, because, in Matthew 24:43, we’re told that if the master of the house had known when the thief was coming, he wouldn’t have allowed it to be broken into. As children of God, God is the Master of our house. He knows when the thief is coming because it’s His Book and His plan.

The first seal in the tribulation has a conqueror, but we’re told we are more than conquerors. The second seal takes peace from the earth (but Jesus has promised us peace over and over. His Gospel is actually called the Gospel of Peace; peace does not include terror and death); the second seal has everyone killing each other (yet Jesus said He would deliver us away from our enemies, which means we are certainly not going to be there killing each other); and the sword appears in this seal as well. We should believe His Gospel of Peace.

The sword is mentioned numerous times in the Bible. Every time we see this word, if we look them up and the verses with this word in them, we will see who is getting the sword and who isn’t. This sword is actually seen coming out of the mouth of Jesus Himself, as part of His wrath, in Revelation 19:15:

“Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.”

We are the body of Christ; we will not be receiving the fierceness and wrath of God, whose beloved children we are, when He strikes the nations with His sword!

The third seal has famine. We won’t be here for this either because Jesus promised that we would never go hungry or thirsty. He doesn’t just keep us from the famine; He removes us from it to feast in abundance in His Kingdom. This is the first half of the tribulation, so that means we must be gone for the entirety of it. Not to mention the hundreds of 7’s in the Bible. Some of these point us to the 7 years where there is either abundance or famine. The tribulation has 3 ½ years of no rain, yet we are promised we will never thirst if we go to Him. He is all the nourishment we need for life when that Day comes upon the earth.

Jesus is the Good Shepherd, so He gathers us into His arms. He longs to gather us into His arms and take us to safety! He gave His life for us so He could do this. However, there is a wolf in sheep’s clothing who doesn’t care at all for the sheep, standing in opposition to Christ, to scatter:

John 10:11-12 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them.”

Jesus is the way to eternal life, but a perverted gospel “turns” the people and causes trouble.  This stands in opposition to Christ. He is truth, but the deceiver is a liar and wants to deceive people into staying for his betrayal in the tribulation so He might take their lives. His path is crooked, which stands in opposition to the straight path, which is the way Jesus leads us.

Matthew 3:3 “For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: ‘The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight.’”

No crooked path!

John 14:6 “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.’”

The tribulation is for His enemies, but Jesus calls us His Friends.

John 15:13 “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”

Here is the opposition:

Nahum 1:2-3 “God is jealous, and the Lord avenges; the Lord avenges and is furious.
The Lord will take vengeance on His adversaries, and He reserves wrath for His enemies;
The Lord is slow to anger and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked.”

Jesus gives us the Cup of the New Covenant, also called the Cup of Thanksgiving, and the Cup of Salvation. The first miracle Jesus did was to make water into wine at the wedding (John 2:1-10), which is a promise.

Matthew 26:27 “Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, ‘Drink from it, all of you. For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.’”

1 Corinthians 10:16 “The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?”

Psalm 23:5 “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.

Psalm 116:13 “I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.”

Here is the opposition: Cup of Wrath, Cup of Fury. This cup just does not align with any of His promises for us, His own body who is clothed in His own righteousness.

Psalm 75:8 “And the wine is red; It is fully mixed, and He pours it out. Surely its dregs shall all the wicked of the earth drain and drink down.”;

Revelation 16:19 “the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath”;

Jeremiah 25:15-16 “For thus says the Lord God of Israel to me: “Take this wine cup of fury from My hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to drink it. And they will drink and stagger and go mad because of the sword that I will send among them.”

Revelation 19:15 “Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.”

Also, see Isaiah 51:17, and Revelation 14:10.

He will raise us up, lift us up, exalt us, bear us up. Numerous scriptures of being lifted up or in opposition, falling.

James 5:15 “The prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well…the Lord will raise him up.”

1 Corinthians 6:14 “And God both raised up the LORD and will raise us up by His power.”

James 4:10 “Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord, and He shall lift you up.”

Psalms 28:9 “Save Your people, and bless Your inheritance; Shepherd them also, and bear them up forever.”

Job 5:11 “The lowly He sets on high, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.”

Luke 1:52 “He has put down rulers from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly.”

Here is the opposition:

Psalm 27:2 “When the wicked advance against me to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall.

Jeremiah 50:32 “The most proud shall stumble and fall, and no one will raise him up;
I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it will devour all around him.”

Psalm 20:9 “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. They have bowed down and fallen; but we have risen and stand upright.”

Psalm 36:12 “There the workers of iniquity have fallen; They have been cast down and are not able to rise.”

He promises us not to add more sorrows or pain.

Proverbs 10:22 “The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow to it.”

Psalms 32:10-11 “Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; but he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous; and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!”

Here is the opposition, again, numerous verses.

Isaiah 13:8 “And they will be afraid. Pangs and sorrows will take hold of them;
They will be in pain as a woman in childbirth; They will be amazed at one another;
Their faces will be like flames.”

Jesus offers us solid, firm, level ground on Him, who is the Rock. But the opposition is sinking sand, shifting ground, being shaken, and being moved. Numerous scriptures for this one as well, on both sides. Our Kingdom (His Kingdom) will not be shaken. The ones who are left on earth will be around for the world-wide earthquake, as well as the heavens being shaken. We must believe and trust Him when He says we will not be moved or shaken.

Psalm 16:8 “I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.”

Hebrews 12:26-29 “whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.” Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.”

We will not stumble or fall because we are a chosen generation, but that which stands in opposition, because they’re disobedient to the Word, will stumble and fall.

1 Peter 2:6-9 “Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,

‘Behold, I lay in Zion
A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.’

Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient,

‘The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone’

and

‘A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.’

‘They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.’”

Here is the opposition:

Psalm 27:2 “When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell.”

Psalm 35:8 “Let destruction come upon him unexpectedly, and let his net that he has hidden catch himself; Into that very destruction let him fall.”

Stay tuned for Part 2, as there are many more. I pray for all of us to see these things which don’t align with Jesus, so we can believe without a doubt we won’t be here for it. Grace and Peace to all! Amen.
