Do We Need a “Third Testament”?
Do we need a “third testament” to add to or replace the Old and New Testaments that make up our Bibles? Well, according to a pastor at a United Church of Christ in California (who also serves as “Presiding Bishop of The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries” and is “married” to her lesbian partner), we do, because the Bible is “problematic.” It’s no surprise that a female “pastor” who apparently identifies as a “womanist,” teaches liberation theology, and accepts homosexuality is going to have some issues with Scripture! During a recent presentation for the Center for Public Theology & Public Policy, she stated. :And they say, “Well, you can’t do it. It’s the Word of God.” I said, “No, it’s words about God.” Come on now. But is it the Word of God? No. It is not the Word of God.

Sources: Why Witkoff is not coming to Kyiv
U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have visited Moscow several times, but not Kyiv. The reason? Witkoff reportedly finds it inconvenient to take the train.

Something Deep in the Ocean is Causing Global Sea Levels to Rise—Now Scientists Reveal What’s Driving the Anomaly
Scientists tracking factors driving a global rise in sea levels in recent years say a key missing piece of the puzzle has finally been revealed. Until around a decade ago, it was believed that all the factors that govern such processes were known. That changed in recent years, as an apparent discrepancy surfaced: the real-world sea level observations appeared to be outpacing what known factors by themselves could explain. So what could be driving the anomaly? The new research, … revealed that heat absorption in ocean layers at depths greater than 2,000 meters plays a significant role in rising sea levels.

They are deliberately destroying the economy
The UK is heading for an orchestrated economic disaster, with a recession, depression and widespread despair, Dr. Vernon Coleman says. The ensuing chaos, poverty and homelessness benefit the conspirators. The economy is being destroyed through high inflation, low interest rates and rising taxes, which benefits those with debts, such as the government, while hurting those with savings. The destruction of the economy is being managed by politicians, including Comrade Reeves and Comrade Starmer, who are serving the interests of the “puppet masters.” Millions diagnosed as being “on the autism spectrum” or “suffering” from anxiety are content to live on benefits rather than working for a living. It is now officially possible to suffer from an illness within the autism spectrum called “rejection sensitivity dysphoria” – a self-diagnosed disorder which occurs when a person is rejected or criticised.

Ahead Of Trump-Xi Summit, Beijing Tells Chinese Firms To Ignore U.S. Sanctions On “Teapot” Refineries
President Donald Trump is set to travel to Beijing in mid-May for a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, the first U.S. presidential visit to China in eight years, and a meeting already delayed once by the Iran war. One important topic the two leaders will likely spend time on is the energy shock and the maximum pressure campaign imposed by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control on Chinese independent “teapot” refineries, particularly in Shandong Province, due to their continued purchases and refining of Iranian crude.

Unexploded Ordinance Accident Kills 14 IRGC Members

When Jews Are Attacked, the Media Won’t Say ‘Jew’
Golders Green is one of the most recognizably Jewish areas in the UK, with around half its population identifying as Jewish. When violence erupts there, the context is not ambiguous. Video footage showed police tasering the attacker and using force to disarm him as he refused to drop his weapon. Yet as news of the attack spread, something else became clear: major British media outlets were struggling to name who had been targeted. The BBC reported that “two people” had been stabbed,

On The Brink: How Much Longer Before God Intervenes In Our World?
As I look at what’s happened just since the start of 2026, I realize the world has continued to rapidly move toward the start of the Tribulation, and yet we still wait for Jesus’ appearing. I still wonder, “Can we get any closer to the time God’s wrath descends upon the unsuspecting world than we already are?”I believe we find the answer in 2 Thessalonians 2:7-8: “For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming”. The answer is yes.

To the Trump Administration: Beware the So-Called Moderates
To his great credit, Trump’s approach so far has focused on unmistakable and irreversible conditions. It forces choices rather than conversations about choices. It transforms diplomacy from a performance into the demand for a decision. Trump’s posture indicates he’s unwilling to let Iran simply run out the clock.

Strait of Hormuz blockade achieves the goals of WEF and Agenda 2030 – coincidence?
On 13 April 2026, the United States imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz following the collapse of peace talks in Islamabad, Pakistan. The true intentions behind the US’ blockade in the Strait of Hormuz are unclear, Charlie Howden writes. He speculates whether it may be part of a larger plan to create a new world order, aligned with the World Economic Forum’s goals and the UN’s Agenda 21/2030. “So, let’s probe the ‘logic’ behind the US blockade,” he said. And continued:  Is Trump’s fireworks display, wittingly or unwittingly, fuelling the World Economic Forum’s (“WEF’s”) dystopian dream and the UN’s Agenda 21/2030 blueprint for “sustainable” control? Recall the WEF’s infamous line: “By 2030, you’ll own nothing and be happy” – code for centralised overlords engineering scarcity to herd the masses into digital cages –

The Apostle Paul Didn’t Reject God’s Future Plans For Israel — Why Does A Large Segment The Church?
It’s safe to say that, among the nations of the world, Israel perhaps evokes stronger thoughts and emotions in people than any other. Israel and polarization seem to fit hand in glove, as people either strongly like or love Israel or dislike or even hate the Jewish nation. It seems most people tend to feel very strongly about Israel, one way or another. In the church today, the nation of Israel is also a point of contention, not geopolitically, per se, but biblically. In short, as it pertains to God’s relationship with Israel in the future, there are only two basic viewpoints: God is either finished with Israel or God has a future for Israel.

Trump Pulling 5,000 US Troops From Germany In Punitive Move Amid Merz Spat
In a huge late in the day Friday development, the Trump administration plans to pull some 5,000 troops from NATO member Germany, CBS is reporting. Citing senior defense officials, the Pentagon expects the troop draw down will happen over a six to twelve month period, Reuters has also separately reported, in what clearly appears a punitive measure aimed at Berlin by the Trump White House. Over several years, and stretching back decades, the US has maintained the most number of troops on the European continent in Germany – currently estimated at over 36,000 active duty personnel. So the 5,000 – while significant – is still somewhat of a symbolic move and number.

The Elites And Their Contempt
Last week, I was unexpectedly hit with a post-lockdown trauma response. memories of empty highways with signs instructing drivers to “Stay Safe and Stay Home” As the week developed, it began to occur to me that the parallels were deeper than my subjective emotional response. Road closures intensified, rendering my beloved city of Pittsburgh less and less functional. Even sidewalks were closed. The attempt by local officials to trigger hysteria in the populace worked, maybe too well.

Would A Pole Shift Cause A Cataclysmic Global Earthquake?
Scientists tell us that it is just a matter of time before Earth’s magnetic poles reverse. When that day finally arrives, what will happen? There is a tremendous amount of debate about that. Government officials have repeatedly claimed that a magnetic pole shift would not be that big of a deal. But others are warning that a sudden magnetic pole shift could cause every major fault line on the entire planet to rupture all at once. As a result, we would experience unprecedented earthquakes, giant tsunamis and insane climate adjustments… The movement of Earth’s magnetic north pole has “accelerated dramatically since 1999”, and recently it has been moving at a pace of up to 37 miles per year… Most people have no idea that this has been happening.
