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 …

NPR’s war on Israel: Bias masquerading as journalism
National Public Radio’s bias against Israel has been a nearly daily thing since the Hamas-led terrorist invasion of southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. Critics of the media outlet have rightly spoken out repeatedly against its slanted coverage, such as the continuous use of casualty figures issued by the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry as fact and without explaining to its audience that Hamas controls this information. What has gone largely unexamined is NPR’s blaming Israel for its supposed inability to access the Gaza Strip during the war.

Time is short for Trump 
Last week’s elections were a setback, but not a devastating one: New Jersey is still a blue state, and while Virginia went red four years ago, it’s been trending Democratic for more than a decade. Republicans also fared poorly in Pennsylvania, however, an all-important presidential battleground. Democrats even made inroads deep into the South, taking two state senate seats in Mississippi — ending a GOP supermajority — and picking up city council spots in South Carolina and Florida. With results like these, the Republicans’ razor-thin majority in Congress won’t survive the midterm elections a year from now.

The Leaders And Policies We Elect Mirror The Moral State Of Our Nation
Every election season, Americans send policies to the halls of government. Voters argue about taxes, foreign policy and healthcare. Yet, beneath the noise of campaign rallies and political advertisements lies a sobering truth: The leaders we elect are mirrors of the people who put them in power.

On 11/11 The Sun Unleashed An Absolutely Massive Solar Storm That Will Hit The Earth On 11/12
A G4 geomagnetic storm watch has been issued, and we are being told that the Earth is going to be hit. But at this hour we do not know how bad it will be or how much damage will be done. We are being told that scientists won’t know the intensity of the solar storm that is heading our way until it is a million miles from our planet. If the storm is much more powerful than expected, we will have less than an hour to prepare. In such a short period of time, there would be little that we could do to protect our power grids. So hopefully this solar storm will turn out to be relatively minor, because we are completely and utterly unprepared for another Carrington Event.

Fermi’s Massive Texas Data Center Struggles To Sign Its First Major Tenant
