The Anglican church should rethink depictions of Jesus as a white man in traditional Christian imagery, the head of the Church of England said Friday. Justin Welby, archbishop of Canterbury, was asked in an interview with BBC Radio 4 if the Western mindset that Jesus looked Caucasian needs to be reconsidered in light of the Black Lives Matter movement. “Yes of course it does, this sense that God was white … You go into churches [around the world] and you don’t see a white Jesus,” he said. “You see a black Jesus, a Chinese Jesus, a Middle-Eastern Jesus — which...

[PHOTO:TELESUR] For years, I’ve worried and warned about the dangers posed by gene-editing technologies, such as CRISPR. In the words of one of its inventors, CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) makes the human genome “as malleable as a piece of literary prose at the mercy of an editor’s red pen.” At least, that’s the promise that has yet to materialize. In 2018, a Chinese scientist announced he’d used CRISPR to genetically modify human embryos. At the time, more “respectable” scientists denounced his actions as “unethical,” given how new the technology was and how little ethical oversight there was...

After years of investigations, Israeli archaeologists now believe that they have uncovered a Byzantine-era Christian town in Galilee. This site has yielded a host of remains and historic artifacts. It is believed that the settlement was probably destroyed during the invasion of the area by the Persians in the 7th century AD. This settlement is offering unparalleled insights into the Christian community during and the Byzantine Empire. The settlement was discovered in 2007 during a construction project on a road in Pi Maẓuva Galilee in Northern Israel . This site was the subject of a salvage excavation before the completion...

The Archbishop of Canterbury has urged the West to reconsider its prevailing mindset that Jesus was white - as he revealed a review into religious statues. Justin Welby said monuments in Canterbury Cathedral are going to be looked at 'very carefully' to see if they all 'should be there'. The head of the Church of England waded into the heated statue debate during an interview this morning, where he was also asked if the 'way the western church portrays Jesus needs to be thought about again'.

A petition is calling for one of the Queen’s highest honours to be redesigned as campaigners say it resembles a white man killing a black man. Thousands of people have signed a change.org petition which was started last week, noting a similarity between the medal for the Order of St Michael and St George and the way George Floyd died in Minneapolis. The badge of the order has St George fighting the dragon on one side, and the archangel St Michael trampling Satan on the other. On the petition, Tracy Reeve wrote: “The image on the Honorary Knights/Dames Commander...

Several petitions by Christian organisations are urging for the cancellation of a controversial movie that blasphemes Jesus Christ. CBN News reported that the independent film called “Habit” would feature twenty-two-year-old Paris Jackson, the daughter of the late king of pop, Michael Jackson. Jackson, who is bisexual in real life, will be playing Jesus, who will be portrayed as a lesbian who indulges in lustful acts with another woman. E-Online stated that Habit follows a “party girl with a Jesus fetish who gets mixed up in a violent drug deal and finds a possible way out by masquerading as a nun.”...

When Government is just and represents God… Romans 13 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. The government is to be a source of justice...

Mississippi's largest religious group said Tuesday that state lawmakers have a moral obligation to remove the Confederate battle emblem from the state flag because many people are “hurt and shamed” by the symbol. “While some may see the current flag as a celebration of heritage, a significant portion of our state sees it as a relic of racism and a symbol of hatred,” the Mississippi Baptist Convention said in a statement. “The racial overtones of this flag's appearance make this discussion a moral issue.”

We served our country in the Army throughout our youth and raised our children; now we rest in our retirement. From the choices we made, we have a small farm in the country. In the early hours before the sunrises, I talk with God about all the things that are in my heart,Then I am still, and I listen to all the special words of love and guidance that God wants to share with me. My bed faces the sunrise, I will watch the last star of the evening go out and put itself to bed. Then the sunrise comes...

It seems we need reminders that no matter how sweet exile, galut, seems, it is not our home. BLM provided them. Don't wait, come now. Op-ed. Shalom and greetings from Israel, The video I saw on Arutz Sheva expressing your concern for American Jews on the eve of what you called a Kristallnacht reminiscent of 1938, was very disturbing for many reasons. The "Night of the broken glass" was a terrifying and defining moment for European Jewry. Today's violent protests, breaking out store windows, thievery and savage physical attacks we are witnessing around America, arouse dread, not only for the...

A Saudi official said Tuesday that the hajj pilgrimage, which usually draws up to 2.5 million Muslims from all over the world, will only see at the most a few thousand pilgrims next month due to concerns over the spread of the coronavirus. The kingdom’s Hajj Minister Muhammad Benten said a “small and very limited” number of people — even as low as just 1,000 from inside the kingdom — will be allowed to perform the pilgrimage to ensure social distancing and crowd control amid the global virus outbreak. “The number, God willing, may be in the thousands. We are...

As the Trump administration expresses optimism about the development of a vaccine for the coronvirus, a religious-liberty group is warning that the top vaccines under development are made with "aborted baby cell lines." The vaccines are not from aborted fetuses but from aborted baby cell lines used by researchers, says Liberty Counsel, which is running a campaign urging members of Congress and governors to oppose a government plan to force vaccinations. "As an American citizen who loves my country, my Constitution and my right to refuse forced vaccinations, I urge you to end all consideration of mandatory vaccinations," Liberty Counsel...

Saudi Arabia has banned Muslims from outside the kingdom from performing the annual hajj pilgrimage this year in an attempt to control the spread of coronavirus. The nation has seen 161,005 cases of COVID-19, with 1,307 confirmed deaths, the biggest outbreak in the Gulf region. But the pilgrimage ban marks the first time in Saudi Arabia's recent history that Muslims outside the kingdom have been barred from performing the hajj, which last year drew 2.5 million people.

The Almighty God who created the world with the power of His Word made the universe. He put each planet in its gravitational place, and set up the sun to give light. He wanted a place where He could put one who could respond to His love, so He created mankind. He gave him a heart; he breathed into man His breathe of life. He asked the man to do one thing: “Love me”. He made hands on each side of the man's heart. Mankind must take their hands, open them and raise them to their Father in heaven. God...

"We have seen the treacherous use of the 'fifth column' by which persons supposed to be peaceful visitors were actually a part of an enemy unit of occupation ... ... These trouble-breeders have but one purpose. It is to divide our people into hostile groups and to destroy our unity and shatter our will to defend ourselves." - Franklin D. Roosevelt. The term "fifth column” referred to ancient warfare, where two columns of soldiers were in the middle of the battlefield, with two flanks on either side. The fifth column was spies who had infiltrated the enemy camp to demoralize...

Next time you encounter a BLM member, ask them a very serious question: The Prophet Muhammad owned slaves! In our culturally-sensitive times, shouldn't organizations like BLM be picketing mosques? Shouldn't they demand statues and buildings named for the Prophet Muhammad be removed or renamed? Here's an excerpt from the BBC acknowledging this fact: "The Prophet Muhammad did not try to abolish slavery, and bought, sold, captured, and owned slaves himself. But he insisted that slave owners treat their slaves well and stressed the virtue of freeing slaves." and "writers argue that by regulating slavery the Prophet gave his authority to...
