Free Republic

BLUF: With the impossible third reelection of DJT, the political left knows they are losing “bigly” and are desperate. The changes Team Trump is making are not superficial like with previous Republican administrations; no, these are substantive, foundational, and will permanently remove the funding and power from political leftists of all stripes from now on, forever. But the leftists aren’t going to take this lying down. If they can’t have their own version of America, no one can. They’d rather watch it burn than see MAGA ever succeed. The tragic irony in all this is that the resistance the left...

In this exciting episode, Pastor Jack simplifies how we are to view the book of Revelation and how you can’t fully understand the Old Testament without this special and unique book. Revelation unveils how the promises, patterns, and prophecies of the Old Testament find their ultimate fulfillment in Jesus and God’s final restoration of all things. Tune in to this beginner's guide as we look forward to diving deeper into the book of Revelation moving forward. Video is 31:15 long.

I often hear statements such as, “Today is no different than any other time in history; look at what happened in the last century with its deadly wars and oppression.” Others point to New Testament times when immorality across the Roman Empire rivaled that of our day, as if to say there’s nothing new about our day. How do we answer such objections? Is our day truly unique in we live in the season of Jesus’ imminent appearing? The most telling difference between today and no other time in all of Church history is this: since 1948, Israel has existed...

Minneapolis saw it in 2020 with George Floyd, and low and behold, that same spirit reigns again in my home town. This time the accused are ICE agents doing their job. And well. In 2020 I wrote in an E-newsletter like this one, stating, “In the Twin Cities, 1,000 properties have been vandalized, looted, burned, or totally destroyed along with apartments above these businesses and homes. “Our media shows business owners staring in stunned disbelief as many were reeling from Coronavirus destruction, but now they face the result of rampant anarchy due to George Floyd fall-out. The media adds insult...

The Rev. Franklin Graham issued an urgent call to prayer, encouraging Americans to come together at noon on January 14 to collectively seek God — a move he believes is essential for a nation he believes has turned its back on the Lord. "Our nation is falling so far from God and His truth," Graham told CBN News. The Samaritan's Purse CEO cited as evidence confusion he observed this week at the Supreme Court, where justices are currently weighing whether states can preclude biological men from participating in women's sports. Graham said 10 years ago such an argument wouldn't have...

On this date 45 years ago, Blondie released “Rapture,” a genre bending single that quietly became one of the most important crossover records in Hip Hop history. Released in 1981 from the album Autoamerican, the song did far more than expand the band’s sonic palette. It helped introduce rap music and Hip Hop culture to a global mainstream audience at a time when the genre was still largely confined to New York City neighborhoods. “Rapture” blended new wave, disco, funk, and spoken word rap into something unfamiliar yet accessible. Debbie Harry’s rhythmic verses referenced early Hip Hop figures and...

Backdrop On October 31, 2025, Pastor Gary McKibben and I conducted a livestream titled Per Aspera Ad Astra—Latin for “through hardship to the stars”—a phrase famously embraced by Jack Parsons, one of the godfathers of America’s early space program. In that discussion, we traced the modern rocketry enterprise back to Parsons and his notorious, explosion-prone circle of engineers at Caltech and JPL, sometimes nicknamed the “Suicide Squad.” Yet Parsons’s obsession extended far beyond propulsion and pyrotechnics. By the mid-1940s, he was deeply immersed in the ritual occultism of Aleister Crowley and Crowley’s system of Thelema, attempting to merge technological ascent...

What if you "hear" something that you've never heard before, but it's been in the Bible all along? It means we need to read our Bible more and more carefully and more thoroughly. Pastor Jack explores some very interesting scriptures about the millennium, a future event mentioned in the Word, as well as how essential it is to judge everything we hear against the Bible itself. Don't be swayed by any man's interpretation and always compare the actual Word of God to the claim. The video is 34:22 minutes long

As we approach 2026, it seems to me that something happens every day that appears to be related to Bible prophecy. I often catch myself wondering what’s next. Will 2026 bring: The Rapture? The Rise of the Ten Kings? The Battle of Gog of Magog? A digital ID in the U.S. A covenant with many for seven years of peace in the Middle East. The judgment of God on America over Pres. Trump’s efforts to appease Muslim intolerance of other religions by dividing Israel. Democrats retaking the House and/Senate in the mid-term elections. More wars and rumors of wars. More...

DIGITAL ID CARDS: "France and Germany have digital IDs, and they have record immigration" (Dr Renee Hoenderkamp) ⛔️NO to compulsory Digital ID - not in your manifesto and not wanted A national digital ID system, pushed using the excuse of "immigration control," threatens everyone’s freedom, privacy, and safety

1. Israel brought back a second time (Isaiah 11:11) It shall come to pass in that day That the Lord shall set His hand again the second time To recover the remnant of His people who are left, From Assyria and Egypt, From Pathros and Cush, From Elam and Shinar, From Hamath and the islands of the sea. Isaiah 11:11 Isaiah foretold a second regathering of Israel distinct from the return from Babylon. The first scattering occurred from 605 to 586BC by the Babylonians The first regathering happened after the Babylonian captivity, beginning in 538-37BC The second scattering occurred in...

One solitary birth is the basis upon which the future hangs for every person ever to enter this mortal realm we call planet Earth. How each man, woman, and child–who has reached the age of understanding salvation–views this visitation determines where their home will be for eternity. Many believe Jesus was sent by God to show us how to live a good life. Some think He was a great prophet and teacher. Others regard Him as a philosopher right up there with Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and the rest. A few among the billions who have lived since His birth have...

On Dec. 11, 2025, an Israeli official (Yossi Dagan, head of the Samaria Regional Council) visited the U.S. House of Rep. Speaker Mike Johnson at his office in Washington, D.C. Johnson told Dagan: I visited Samaria—both as a member of Congress before becoming speaker, and again last summer as speaker with a small group of colleagues. The Bible is clear: Judea and Samaria are the Land of Israel. Dagan told Johnson: No nation on earth has a connection to its homeland as deep as the Jewish people have to the Land of Israel—especially to Judea and Samaria, the land of...

People throughout the world have been reporting the strange lights from the heavens for millennia. The ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, and most every other civilization and culture have recorded sightings that are unusual. However, today, an increasing number of anomalous sightings is reported nearly every hour of every day. Many are recorded with and through the ever-improving technologies for catching the UFOs, now called “unidentified aerial phenomena” (UAPs). The 1947 reports of a crashed extraterrestrial flying disc at Roswell, New Mexico, opened the modern world to setting the stage for what has come since. The movie industry has greatly expanded...

The prophet Isaiah wrote: “The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap” (Isa. 17:1). “And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.” It is not hard to find commentators that say this prophecy has been fulfilled, but because Damascus has been destroyed so many times, there is much doubt about who fulfilled it and when it happened. There are others who believe it has never been fulfilled...

For my more seasoned readers, let’s say you could travel back in time and revisit a moment in your life. You’re not going back to change the past, but simply to sit as a silent guest and listen in on a conversation you might have had back then. Let’s say you decide to go back to the year 1993 when you and a friend are in a restaurant having lunch. At some point the conversation steers into the signs of the times and when you think the Lord will return. Your friend might mention the fact that the year 1993...

7 Ancient Tactics Resurfacing in the Last Days Introduction: Ancient Patterns in a Modern World Long before the Flood reshaped the world, humanity was caught in a cosmic crossfire. The Bible paints a world spiraling toward judgment—not because of primitive ignorance, but because of strategic, coordinated spiritual warfare carried out by fallen angels. What unfolded in those pre-Flood days was not myth or superstition, but a calculated assault on God’s design and the destiny of humanity. Genesis 6 provides only a glimpse, but enough to reveal the enemy’s playbook. Jesus sharpened the warning by telling us: “For the coming of...

A group called “Endless Highway” recently sang at the church I attend. One of the founding members (now retired) was asked to sing, and he chose a song called “I Won’t Have to Worry Anymore.” The lyrics go like this: Verse 1 Down here, my burden’s heavy And the road seems rough and long Sometimes my feet grow weary and so slow But a brighter day is coming; soon I’ll step on heaven’s shore And I won’t have to worry anymore Chorus Verse 2 Someday, when life is over, and I’ve said my last goodbye I’ll see my Savior standing...

One prophetic element stands out in considering the seven-year Tribulation era regarding the Antichrist regime. That is the economic platform prophesied to be at the heart of the Beast system. With so many signals in view that point to the brewing Tribulation tempest, we should expect—if we’re reading the end-times signals correctly—that this heart of the Beast should be well along in its construction. We’ve covered all the indicators found within current issues and events that we believe are signals like those given by Jesus and the prophets. National and world economies have been dealt with in our efforts to...

The Praise and Worship Band at the church I attend recently sang “Come, Jesus, Come.” Here are the words to the Chorus: Come, Jesus, come We’ve been waiting so long For the day You return To heal every hurt and right every wrong We need You right now Come and turn this around Deep down I know this world isn’t home Come, Jesus, come Here are the words to the verses: Sometimes I fall to my knees and pray Come, Jesus, come Let today be the day Sometimes I feel like I’m gonna break But I’m holding on To a...
