One hundred fifty-seven Christian leaders representing different streams of Christianity in the United States, wrote a letter to U.S. President Joe Biden, under the banner of American Christian Leaders for Israel (ACLI), to express their disappointment with recent actions by his administration towards Israel. In the letter, the leaders warned that these actions would embolden the mutual enemies of both Israel and the United States and encouraged Biden to make “a course correction.” Among the actions the leaders specified were: Holding Israel responsible for all civilian casualties in Gaza, despite Hamas being the official government of the people there. Repeatedly...

As we watch our world spiral downward into Nazi-era antisemitism, we need to recognize that the side effect of this will be and is a disdain, and eventually hatred, for those in support of the nation of Israel. This will eventually migrate into a hatred of those who love not only the Jews but also the King of the Jews, Jesus of Nazareth. Revelation 6:9-11 – “When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. And they cried...

The world is staggering under the weight of billions of bad decisions — bad decisions by regular citizens and by the world’s leaders. Of those choices, one stands out as particularly dangerous — the decision to blame Jews for humanity’s problems. We have seen where this decision leads. The Nazis took it to a place they called Endlösung. In English, that means, “The Final Solution.” Adolf Hitler built his whole sorry career on extreme hatred of Jews. In his book, Mein Kempf, he blamed Jews for mankind’s worst evils. He spoke of “the Jewish question” as a primary problem for...

Murderous. Raping. Butchering. Monsters. These adjectives stretch our minds back to the brutal conquests of the Mongol Horde of old or the heinous crimes committed by ISIS during the past decade. But, today? These dire words aptly describe Hamas. Our brains struggle to believe such brutality could possibly exist in this modern-day world. And yet, as Hamas invaders tore through Israel’s fences and murdered over 1,200 innocent people — in such gruesome ways I couldn’t possibly describe here — and kidnapped hundreds more, we know that such evil truly does exist in our day. The world initially rallied around Israel...

Much like a quarterback suddenly tackled from behind by a player from the opposing side, the claim that God has rejected Israel and replaced the nation with the church represents a blindside attack on the integrity of Scripture. Those who say the church is now God’s kingdom not only greatly err, but also cause considerable harm to the reliability of Scripture, which in turn deprives believers of their safe refuge for the perilous times in which we live. In defense of these assertions, which I know seem extreme to some, I will start with how a group of prominent leaders...

In view of the hatred flaring up around the world, not only against Israel, but in principle against all Jews, humanity is increasingly divided into two camps. Needless to say, those nations or people who appear to be neutral are automatically on the wrong side. Numbering around 7.3 million people, most Jews live in the USA, closely followed by the second largest Jewish community of around 7.18 million Jews in Israel and another 1.11 million Jews in Europe. The remaining 860,000 are spread around the rest of the world. More Jews still live “scattered” somewhere other than Eretz Yisrael, where...

Shalom from Israel! Another week has gone by under wartime, and, as seems to regularly be the case, there have been some highlights and there have been some sorrows. Through it all, the people of Israel remain as dedicated as ever to defeat the enemies who are surrounding us. Unfortunately, it appears that the resolve of our allies is waning. As you’ll see below, it may not be long until we are on our own while new enemies step up against us. Rather than bombs and bullets, their weapons will be politics and pressure, sanctions and seizures, judgments and isolation....

Is there a Satan? Is there Hell? Is man’s inhumanity toward his fellow man, just part of his “animal nature”? Or is there something greater? Is there a higher power and a lower power that are battling each other? It says in the Bible that our fight is not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Man’s inhumanity to his fellow man started when Cain murdered his brother Abel and the hatred and murder have not ceased. You would think...

Note: The following is a most relevant open letter, which is important to all within the Body of Christ to read. Our prayer is that you will read carefully and understand God’s Holy View of Israel in these end times when the Jewish people are again beginning to suffer hatred throughout the world. Dear Brother or Sister in Christ, If you are a member of a Catholic or mainline denominational church, you have probably been taught something called replacement theology (and perhaps you don’t even know it has that name). Replacement theology leads those who have adopted it to believe...

The Latin patriarch of Jerusalem reconsecrated the Holy Land to Our Lady, Queen of Palestine, on her feast day this Sunday, amid the recently kindled war between Israel and Hamas. On Sunday, October 29, Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa offered Mass at the Shrine of Our Lady Queen of Palestine and of the Holy Land for spiritual recourse during the conflict. “Today, we consecrate once again our Church, our diocese, our land to Our Lady, Queen of Palestine,” Pizzaballa said in his homily, Catholic News Agency reported. “We have done this several times in moments of need for our community, and this...

The recent, unprecedented attacks by Hamas against Israel October 7 were the deadliest since Israel became a nation, and the global conflict has now become a powder keg. Some speculate WW III is here. Israel has always been under attack. According to Bible prophecy, many events in the last days including the return of Jesus Christ, the judgment of God, and end times wars would revolve around Jerusalem. The Bible warns about wars and rumors of wars, and since a coalition of Muslim nations surrounding Israel forged an alliance many decades ago, the Middle East meltdown was set in motion....

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa pledged the solidarity of his country with "the people of Palestine," in a video the South African leader posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday. "We pledge solidarity with the people of Palestine," the caption on the video reads. "All of us standing here, [are] pledging our solidarity with the people of Palestine," Ramaphosa said. "We stand here because we are deeply concerned about the atrocities that unfolding in the Middle East, and we have passed our condolences to the people of Israel as we are passing out condolences to the people of Palestine." The...

Balaam On Being Paid to Curse Israel Part 1 By: Pastor Bill Randles I will bless those that bless you and curse those who curse you and in you all the families of the world will be blessed. Genesis 12:3 Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me, peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land; for I know that he whom thou (Balaam) bless is blest and he whom you curse is cursed. Numbers 22:6 Perhaps the most misunderstood...
