As barely a Christian myself (i.e., spiritual but not into the rites), I can hardly lay claim to a detailed understanding of Jewish customs/stories. However, the idea of Passover might be useable here in regards to Beijing Biden being sworn in on Jan 20. As many of you might know (e.g., perhaps only from movies) during the original Passover Jewish households painted lamb’s blood on their entryways to “ask” God’s plagues to “pass over this place”. How about on Jan 20 we all place an upside down US flag near our entryway, or in a window? In effect, asking that...

This is the prayer that Jesus prayed to His Father God, recorded in the Book of John, Chapters 13:1, 17:9-26, just before the Passover Festival and before He would lay down His life to save the world. Lord Jesus, as at this time we worship and praise You for coming into the world, we also highly lift up and magnify Your Holy Name, the Name Above All Names, for obediently becoming that Perfect, acceptable ultimate Sacrifice so that anyone who believes on You will be saved. Thank You!!!!!

Prager U is looking at the impact of lockdown on our mental health and asking, "Was it worth it?" In the last 30 days, around 40% of people have reported mental or behavioral health issues, 30% anxiety or depression, 26% trauma and stress and 10.7% have considered suicide. You need to say it twice to stop yourself reading it like a shopping list. During lockdowns, one in ten people have considered suicide in the last 30 days. Look around you. One in ten. We also know that statistically these figures will be an under-representation. People do not willingly share this...

...Pierce started prophesying last September and then again in January about what the world is going through now. He said, "plague-like" conditions would hit the Earth through February, March, and April. In a new interview with CBN News on "The Prayer Link" show, he also had a word of hope about Passover. "This year would be the year that Believers would really have to understand Passover and that we will pass over!"..

Maybe you’ve seen the eyebrow-raising claims on the Internet or elsewhere in the media: rather than celebrating Jesus’ resurrection from the dead and triumph over crucifixion, Easter is really derived from a pagan holiday. Proponents of this theory point to symbols of rebirth and fertility, like eggs and bunnies, that we see at Easter as proof. But the foundation of the claim that Easter is a pagan tradition is the similarity in names: Easter, they say, is the English translation of Eostre, a Germanic goddess of fertility. (Others claim Easter got its name from the Mesopotamian goddess Ishtar, or the...

As Jesus (Yeshua - Yahweh IS Salvation/Deliverance) the Messiah entered into Jerusalem for the Passover of the Lord - which had been rendered useless and reduced to a mere traditional religious lifeless skeleton of a feast, renamed the Passover of the Jews (Lev. 23, Matt. 23: 13-15, John 2:13, 5:1, 13:1), all the air was abuzz with the news of Jesus of Nazareth (Matt. 21:8-11, Luke 19:37-40)! As it were, Jesus had absolutely dominated the “news cycle” of His day for 3 ½ years! Jesus would have been constantly talked about in all of the newspapers and on all of...

As the Israeli ambassador to the US, Ron Dermer said: " It is true that in every generation they rise up against us...But it is a rare thing- a very rare thing- a president like President Trump and an administration like the Trump administration- it doesn't happen every generation. It may happen once in many, many generations." If President Trump had only banned travel from China thus stopping the Angel of Death- Dayenu If President Trump had only moved the US embassy to Jerusalem- Dayenu If President Trump had only recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan- Dayenu If President Trump...

It symbolic that the upsurge in the coronavirus epidemic COVID-19 has coincided with the Jewish festival of Passover that commemorates the liberation of Jews more than 3,000 years ago from an enemy determined to liquidate them. Individuals are now conscious that the world today is fighting an invisible enemy determine to exterminate them, and which so far has claimed 58,000 deaths and more than one million infected. The parallel between today and the Jewish historical experience is enticing in at least five ways. One is the visible fight for liberation and the end of their slavery in Egypt against an...

The international edition of the New York Times will no longer feature editorial cartoons. The move to self-censorship follows the uproar sparked by publication of a widely denounced antisemitic caricature of Israeli Prime Minister Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The cartoon, published in April, depicted Netanyahu as a dog wearing a Star of David collar and leading a sightless U.S. President Donald Trump — who was wearing a Jewish skullcap.The offensive piece was drawn by Portuguese artist António Moreira Antunesas and published during the Passover holiday.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Michigan Democrat, offered Passover greetings to her “Jewish sisters and brothers” with a graphic that included two fluffy loaves of bread. There’s just one problem: Jewish people don’t eat leavened bread on Passover. The first-term congresswoman’s fans and foes on social media were quick to flag the gaffe after her tweet was posted Friday, the first day of Passover. “Hi! I like you a lot but loaves of bread should not be on a Passover image! May I suggest replacing them with Matzah?” tweeted Ben Yelin. The blooper came after the British Labour Party removed a similar...
