And the Democrats' opposition to Trump has apparently caused them to side with Iran. That's precisely how it's coming across and their lack of perception of how it looks is staggering.

Back in 1979, at the start of the Iranian Hostage Crises, when Iran tried to drive a racial wedge in the US by releasing the black hostages, black leaders in the US, including the late Jessie Jackson, refused to play along and continued their condemnation of Iran. Where it to happen now, I really think that the Democrats would praise them.

Agreed, and it's thoroughly disgusting. John Fetterman is the last standing Democrat that remains true and honest. IMO.

Again they whom Christ is a Saviour to He gives them with repentance also the remission or forgiveness of sins Acts 5:31

31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

Which is also Salvation. The knowledge of it is Lk 1:77

77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins

Actually, it's 100% on-brand, and what made me make a final break from the Democrats. Yep, I used to be a Democrat. It was when I saw something happen decades ago on the national level that reeked of the goings on I'd heard about on the local level that it was more than I could stomach. Quite obviously, if they are willing to go after a former US President because they consider him an enemy of their party, they are willing to go after anyone who doesn't say "How high?" when they yell "Jump!"

Anyone watching you tube of what is going on in Iran ? Their 86 year old muslim dictator for 45 years targeted/killed in an Israel missile attack. And Iran retaliates with missile attacks on Israel, Tel Aviv in particular. You tube videos.

Meanwhile, the war between Ukraine and Russia causing distress. Maybe Zelensky might be the little horn person. And Putin might be Gog.

The Gog/Magog event, involving Iran (and some other muslim countries) and Russia, takes place right before the 7 of Daniel 9:27 and Ezekiel 39:9. Parable of the fig tree indicates before the end of 2030.

Nope. Gog Magog is not a future event of a literal war in some literalistic future and times table.

If you go back to Daniel you'll see that the gog Magog war is symbolic of all the enemies of God wrapped up into one image. He has bits of all the surrounding kingdoms that Daniel and other prophets have been ranting against. The events that unfold after that are impossible to happen literally, as the geological catastrophes that unfold would eliminate any corpses for the birds of the air to feast on for all those years etc. It's symbolic writing using number symbolism and common images of battle.

Amalgamation, parallelism, and number symbolism. These are all common tools in apocalyptic symbolism in other Hebrew works even outside of the biblical canon.

Learn the language of apocalyptic symbolism and you learn what John was actually writing in revelation, and it even casts light on how some of the Old testament prophets were already starting to use these techniques.

Nope. There are no prophecies left for the Middle East or anywhere. There's only the gospel promise that the Lord will return one day to judge the living in the dead and usher in the new heavens and the new earth.

Jesus was the last prophet priest and king. He was the word of God, the final word, the final authority for all things spiritual, the incarnation of the Godman himself.

Basically, the kingdom of God started with Jesus and impinges on world history as the church grows. But the abomination of desolation? That was fulfilled when the Romans destroyed the temple. Or it may have even been a reference to Jesus own sacrifice which allows the end of the temple.


As you read through the olivet discourse, remember to compare and contrast the two events.


These things and that day

These things happen locally, predictably, and avoidably. That is people are to run away. Literally run to the hills away from the Romans!


That day happens universally like the lightning from the east to the west. Unpredictably as explained and expounded upon by the following four parables, and inescapably like the days of Noah.

The disciples asked two questions: when is the temple going to end and when is the end of the world? To them when Jesus said the end of the temple, they thought that meant the end of the world! But Jesus said if they had faith they could say to this mountain - literally mount Zion that they were looking at from the mount of olives -fall into the sea - because their salvation no longer depended on the temple but on Jesus's own body being broken.

So, what do we have today in terms of future prophecy?

The Lord will return to judge the living in the dead. At any moment. In 5 seconds or 50,000 years we just don't know!

Daniel 9:4-10

“We have sinned, been wicked and done evil.”



It is good to acknowledge this. Let us also make peace with our memory, which belongs to the past and transmits to us what we transmit to it.



Luke 6:36-38

“Forgive and you will be forgiven.”



We can recognize our limitations, surrender everything to God, and maintain peace within ourselves and with one another.

No. When I waa young, the president waa a good Republican, Eisenhower. He built the interstate system and presided over a boom. Families could live on one income.
My mother was conservative. My father was an economic liberal social conservative.
If they had ever seen last week's SOTU speech, they would have moved heaven and earth to get him impeached.
My parents liked LBJ for what he accomplished but thought he was too crude to be president.
And Harry Truman cursed once in awhile. My mother thought he'd been terrible.
But Trump? They would know America had lost its collective mind.

5 things to know as Trump's 'national emergency' plan emerges to seize control of voting​

The liberal media platform Democracy Docket has obtained the 17-page draft emergency executive order that President Donald Trump's allies have presented to him to seize control of voting infrastructure and election policies, under the guise of a national emergency.

The order, first reported on Thursday, uses as justification for the seizure a claim that China interfered in the 2020 presidential election.

1. Voting machines will be banned — even those that print a paper ballot.
2. Ballot drop boxes for mail-in voters will be prohibited.
3. Voters will be required to notarize mail-in ballots before turning them in.
4. Everyone currently registered to vote will have to register again for the 2026 elections.
5. The executive order claims to supersede virtually every major federal law on voting rights.

Ai rewards those who use their time wisely. The more you have in your knowledge bank the more you'll receive in return. It isn't designed to give you the answers or make you smart. It's designed to give you siloed nuggets you'll never connect. If you present a mind that troubleshoots and excels at deduction that's what you'll get in return. If you present a mind that know little and needs everything explained you'll get that.

When you sit down to converse you're not privy to everything it knows. You're privy to what you've unlocked and he studies you too. Answers are meaningless if you don't know why and why isn't the key. It's hidden information that's programmed into it regarding the subject to prevent it from saying too much.

All the people asking it for stocks and business ideas are wasting their time. He's not programmed to liberate he's programmed to manage the masses. He'll never give you enough. And in a roundabout way he rewards those who ask for less. The ones with more answers than questions do best.

The physical nation called “Israel” is a political entity comprised of mostly Jews, most all of whom do not believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they do not believe in Jesus Christ, the second person of our triune God – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Only about 2% of the population of physical political Israel identify as Christian. So the nation, as a singular unit, does not worship the God of their ancestors, thus they are antichrist.

[Genesis 17:7-9; Genesis 18:19; Matthew 21:43; John 8:18-19,38-47; Romans 2:28-29; Romans 6:1-23; Romans 8:1-14; Romans 9:4-8,25-28; Romans 11:1-36; 1 Corinthians 10:1-22; Galatians 3:16,26-29; Galatians 4:22-31; Ephesians 2:11-22; Ephesians 3:1-6; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-16; Hebrews 8:6-13; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 John 2:22; Jude 1:5; Revelation 2:9; Revelation 3:9]

So, according to the Scriptures, taught in the correct biblical context, all Jews who have rejected Jesus Christ as their Lord and Messiah are not biblical Israel. They are not God’s chosen people, his holy nation. Now all who believe in Jesus Christ, whether Jew or Gentile by physical birth, are God’s chosen people and heirs of the promise made to Abraham and to his seed, Jesus Christ. We are biblical Israel, the only Israel of God.

But somewhere along the line in human history someone began teaching Christians that they were to raise up the Jewish people to some kind of honorary status almost in a worshipful kind of sense to where they were convinced that the physical and political nation of Israel was still biblically God’s holy nation, his people, and a people that we should give our loyalty, devotion, and support to, as though they are still God’s chosen people.

But that is a lie. For the Scriptures do not support that. And they teach that all Jews who do not believe in Jesus Christ are the same as anyone else who does not believe in Jesus Christ, so they are the same as their Arab neighbors. And the holy city is no longer in physical Jerusalem, because the vast majority of the Jews are still living in slavery to sin and not as obedient servants of the Lord Jesus Christ (see Galatians 4:22-31).

And the temple of God has not been a physical building ever since Jesus Christ gave his life up for us on that cross, and he rose from the dead, and he ascended back to the Father in heaven, and he sent his Holy Spirit to indwell the lives of his followers. We are now the temple of God in whom God dwells by his Spirit, and Jesus is the temple of God, so there will never be another temple of God, for God does not dwell in physical buildings.

And God has only one chosen people, and that is all who have trusted in Jesus Christ to be Lord and Savior of their lives, whether Jew or Gentile by physical birth. Only through faith in Jesus Christ can any of us be God’s chosen people and his holy nation, and only if we have been crucified with Christ in death to sin and raised with Christ to walk in newness of life in him, no longer to live as slaves to sin but as obedient servants of our God.

[Matthew 7:13-14,21-23; Luke 9:23-26; John 10:27-30; Acts 26:18; Romans 2:5-10; Romans 6:1-23; Romans 8:1-14; 1 Corinthians 10:1-22; Galatians 5:16-24; Ephesians 2:8-10; Ephesians 4:17-32; Ephesians 5:3-6; Titus 2:11-14; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 12:1-2; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 John 1:1-10; 1 John 2:1-6; 1 John 3:4-10; Revelation 2:1-29; Revelation 3:1-22]

Should I Not Preach Jesus

Based off 1 Corinthians 9:16-10:13
An Original Work / July 4, 2013
Christ’s Free Servant, Sue J Love

Woe to me should I not preach Jesus.
I’m compelled to preach the full gospel.
I make myself a slave to ev’ryone
To win their hearts to Christ.
All this I do for my Lord Jesus,
And for the sake of His Name;
Do it for the sake of His gospel,
So that I, its blessings gain.

Scripture notates the sins of others;
Written down for us as examples
To keep us from setting our hearts
On evil as did those of old.
Do not worship other gods of man;
Do not give your hearts to them;
Not partake in immorality.
Do not test your Lord and King.

So, be careful if you think you are
Standing firm in your faith in Jesus.
God has given his word to warn us,
So through faith we will not fall.
No temptation has o’ertaken you
Except what is commonplace.
God is faithful to not let you be
Tempted past what you can bear.
He gives the way of escape.

Structure of the spiral system​

three views of the Milky Way Galaxy
The Milky Way Galaxy’s structure is fairly typical of a large spiral system. (Spiral galaxies and other types of galaxies are described in the article galaxy.) This structure can be viewed as consisting of six separate parts: (1) a nucleus, (2) a central bulge, (3) a disk (both a thin and a thick disk), (4) spiral arms, (5) a spherical component, and (6) a massive halo. Some of these components blend into each other.


It’s a long article (as befits the subject matter) but do read it all.

This belies the belief that there’s not enough liberals to keep these institutions afloat without conservatives.

The Universities are supposed to be where we “keep” the people, who, if they were allowed (and had the inclination) to, interact with the government at any level, would likely do great damage.

What conservatives are looking to do is diminish their influence within government by trying to be the ones to be “in charge” of what colleges teach. I say, “let them”, good, in 30 years the Universities will be conservative and the government will be liberal.
