What do a cashless society, cryptocurrency, biometric technology, and microchips mean in light of Bible prophecy? In this compelling message, Dr. David Jeremiah explores how economic trends may point toward the last days and the future world system described in Scripture.

Is Rome Minimizing Our Lady? The Crisis of Marian Devotion Why are traditional Marian titles being minimized precisely when the Church needs Our Lady more than ever? From Coredemptrix and Mediatrix to Don Bosco’s famous vision of the Two Pillars, this powerful reflection calls Catholics back to the Mother of God, and warns against a Marian minimalism that risks forgetting how profoundly Our Lady belongs to the story of our salvation.

[Catholic Caucus] Leo XIV’s Appointed President of the ‘Academy for Life’ Opens the Door to Euthanasia Archbishop Renzo Pegoraro, President of the Pontifical Academy for Life, claims that Catholics could morally assent to a law permitting assisted suicide in Italy.Speaking to the Italian bishops’ newspaper Avvenire.it on September 6, he said: “From the Catholic side, it is a matter of assessing whether we will be faced with an ‘imperfect law’, to which it would nevertheless be moral to give one’s assent, in view of the fact that more permissive and libertarian laws could otherwise quickly be approved in Parliament, laws...

[Catholic Caucus] Cardinal Sarah and the Crisis in Bioethics Cardinal Robert Sarah’s address this summer to the European Parliament identifies a foundational problem in contemporary bioethical discourse: the widening gap between language and reality. Words that once conveyed stable meanings – “healthcare,” “rights,” “dignity” – are increasingly deployed with ideological elasticity.Sarah warns this linguistic instability constitutes a “crisis of the logos or of reason,” a breakdown in the relationship between words and the realities they signify. Language ceases to correspond to reality; reason loses its footing, and moral judgment becomes vulnerable to sentiment, ideology or political coercion.Sarah’s thesis rests on...

Maine’s highest court has ruled that a father can prevent his daughter from attending a Calvary Chapel with her mother in a contested custody case after a lower court accepted an expert's claim that the congregation is akin to a "cult." The Maine Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) released a unanimous ruling Tuesday in Emily A. Bickford v. Matthew A. Bradeen, authored by Chief Justice Valeria Stanfill. At issue is an order of “shared parental rights and responsibilities” between Bickford and Bradeen, in which the two disagreed over who would control their child’s religious upbringing. Bradeen objected to Bickford bringing the...

[Catholic Caucus] Catholicism’s Surrender to Maoism: Beijing Chooses Communist Bishops. Rome Says Yes. Beijing has chosen a new Catholic bishop who promoted Communist ideology, participated in Maoist political “re-education,” and dismissed reports of persecution against Catholics in his own diocese. Rome approved him anyway. The consecration of Paul Liu Honggang, argues Gaetano Masciullo, is a shocking example of what the Sino-Vatican agreement has produced: The Communist regime chooses, and Rome goes along with it.The diplomatic farce of the Vatican’s Ostpolitik has reached a new, desolate peak. Last August 31, Paul Liu Honggang was consecrated bishop of Datong. The appointment had...

The number one news story on religion in recent years has been the rise of the “Nones,” or people who say they have no religion.So, is it finally the end for American faith? No. If you dig a little deeper, you’ll see why it’s not.More people tell pollsters today that they have no religion. The total number of Nones, agnostics, and atheists rose from about 16% to 28% of respondents between 2007 and 2023, according to Pew Research.A generation ago, cultural...

The Burning Man event welcomes all attendees from all walks of life to the Black Rock Desert for 10 days of festivities with a philosphy of radical inclusion; however, one group is alleging that it was unfairly excluded from the event. On Tuesday, the Christian missionary camp Shift the Atmosphere was asked to pack up its belongings and leave the playa. According to videos posted on Instagram by camp member John Hinerman, the complaint stemmed from the camp engaging in nonconsensual activity, including filming Burning Man attendees and encouraging them to “receive a blessing.” Burning Man has strict rules regarding...

[Catholic Caucus] Spain awakens for Ceuta and not a single bishop in the squares One thousand squares filled at the same time, a forest of Spanish flags from Cibeles to the Pilar, and a single cry from north to south: “Ceuta is not for sale, Ceuta defends itself.” Nothing like it had been seen since the autumn of 2017, when the separatist challenge brought a seemingly dormant nation into the streets. The Spanish people are slow to react. But when they are put in check, they react. Yesterday they did so again — alone, without their shepherds.There are images a...

Lucifer, the "Master Politician" and "Original Fascist", knows all too well how the "game" is to be played. He has been practicing his demonic tactics and observing humanity for 6000 years (John 8:44). He has been patiently waiting for the precise moment to bring forth his master plan and global godless unity. Lucifer's evil genius and perverted perception give him the tactical insight to pull the strings of humanity and to move them along to serve his godless purpose and eventually achieve his master design. That plan is the global worship of himself (2 Thess. 2:3-4; Rev. 13:4, 8, 12)...

A troubling court ruling out of Maine should have Christians paying attention. The Maine Supreme Judicial Court has upheld an order giving a father final authority to prevent his daughter from attending an evangelical church after arguments that the religious environment was psychologically harmful to the girl.

Her father, Matthew Bradeen, objected. In 2024, a Portland District Court gave him authority to determine whether his daughter could continue attending the church, and Maine's highest...
