Apocalyptic Weather?
Michael Snyder wrote that we are experiencing "apocalyptic weather'? Why? What has been happening with heat, drought, flooding, and weather extremes? What have news agencies been reportingd? Is there a way, according to the Bible, that this could change? Is weather totally random or does God control the weather? Are groups like the United Nations, the Vatican, and the World Economic Forum proposing ideas related to changes in weather (which they tend to call 'climate change')? Could weather at all be related to obedience or disobedience to God's laws? …
King David: Any Archaeological Proof?
The Bible talks a lot about King David of Israel--he is mentioned in book the Hebrews scriptures and the New Testament. Is there any physical proof, archaeological evidence that he existed? Or, as some at Wikipedia put it, only a legend like King Arthur or Homer epic tales? Did Professor Yosef Garfinkel of Hebrew University conclude that King David ruled over fortified cities like the Bible points out? Do ancient tablets found at Mari point to the rule of King David? …
World Economic Forum, CBDCs, and 666
Are there concerns about CBDCs (Central Bank Digitial Currencies)? The Summer meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) was held from June 27-29, 2023 in China.

More 'Doomsday' Preppers
Those who have read the New Testament realize that Jesus warned of wars, famines, pestilences, and other troubles (Matthew 24:4-8; Mark 13:8) as part of the “beginning of sorrows,” and we have been seeing some of that. Then there will be the doom of the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21-22).
Even those who do not heed the scriptures are seeing problems as well. Many Americans, correctly, realize that their government is not …
AI Jesus? Artificial Intelligence God?
We are seeing more and more steps to incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) in with matters of religion. From a Protestant sermon via AI, to PETA blaspheming God by re-writing a false account of the Book of Genesis, to Yuval Noah Harari of the World Economic Form (WEF) calling for a new globalist religion and Bible to be produced by AI, things like ChatGPT are being used. There is also an AI thing called "ask Jesus" which has a false Messiah who does not always provide biblically-accurate statements …
American Banning of the Bible
The David School District in Utah has removed the KJV version of the Bible from its libraries because it claims it is full of vulgarity and violence. The person who originated this claimed said that the King James Bible "has no serious value for minors." Should children be able read what is in the Bible? What does the Book of Deuteronomy teach? Have other school districts in the USA also removed the Bible? What about the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States and its claim of freedom of the press, freedom …
And the Debt Goes On...
On June 3, 2023, US President Joe Biden signed a bill to increase the official debt-ceiling of the United States. According to its Treasury the "ceiling" has been changed, increased, or delayed 78 other times. The official debt has nearly tripled since the Obama-Biden Administration. The official debt increased about $2 trillion per year under Donald Trump's Administration and has done close to that in the Joe Biden Administration. While the USA has been able to increase debt with limited consequences (like inflation) so far, does the Bible show this can end in destruction? What did God warn about debt through the prophet Habakkuk? …
Is AI in the Bible?

PETA's Preposterous Preaching
The group calling itself the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PETA, has problems with what it calls "speciesism" and the Bible. In an attempt to reduce biblical influence, it claims that it used ChatGPT in order to rewrite the first book of the Bible, Genesis. Is PETA's version of Genesis consistent with scripture? Does PETA have trouble identifying the days of the week? Did PETA leave out statements about God giving humans dominion? Does the Bible show God used animal skins for a covering for Adam and Eve or plant-based clothes? …
The Heresy of 'Carnal Christianity'
Is there such a thing as 'carnal Christianity'? If it is a false religion calling itself Christian, where did it start? Was Marcion of the 2nd century the first Protestant? What about Marcion and the Roman Catholic Church? Did Jesus teach keeping the commandments? Should the Old Testament be discarded? What did early Christian leaders do? What about Martin Luther? Is Andy Stanley right about the commandments, immorality, and not looking at ancient prophecies? …
Palestinian Calls for Jewish Temple
In an interview with media personality Avri Gilad, a former Palestinian terrorist named Mohamed Masad said that God brought the Jewish people from all over the world back to the land of Israel, so that the Jews will build the Holy Temple and bring peace to the world.

H5N1 and the 4th Horseman of the Apocalypse?
The avian flu, H5N1, has killed tens of millions of birds. It has also caused the price of poultry and eggs to rise. A decade ago, the United States and the Netherlands did "gain of function" research on the avian flu virus. It has now been found that strains of H5N1 have also infected mammals in North America and Europe, including ferrets. Although the US Centers for Disease Control does not yet see this as a major threat to humans, 53% of humans who get it die. Some have reported that strains of H5N1 have the potential to kill up to 1.5 billion human beings! …
Can Witch Doctors Cast Spells on Christians?
Many in Africa, Haiti, the West, and various other parts of the world believe that witch doctors are powerful. Various ones have succumbed to the point they believe Christians can be cursed by them. The Bible opposes the use of witchcraft and casting spells as Deuteronomy 18:10-12 shows. Does the Bible suggest witches, palm readers, and witch doctors could be real? Is it possible that witch doctors can cast spells on Christians to blind them to something? If not, why not? Are non-Christians subject to be blinded by Satan, his demons, and those involved with the 'dark arts'? What does the Bible clearly teach? …
Silver, Science, and Scripture
What is silver? What is it used for? How long has it been used? Will it have use in the future? There was an archaeological discovery that concluded that silver was used as a form of payment 3,700 years ago in the Levant (roughly the area of Israel, Lebanon, and Syria)--that was 500 years earlier than many thought it had been used there. Was silver shown to be used even a couple of centuries earlier than that by Abraham in the Bible? What is dross? Did ancient Rome have dross coins? Did the USA switch to dross coins instead of silver in 1965? Does the Bible teach against the use of dross? …
Red Heifer Sacrifice Ready April 2024?
In September 2022, 5 seemingly unblemished red heifers were transported from Texas to Israel by Boneh Israel in conjunction with some Protestants.

What does the Bible teach about the ashes of red heifer? Is a red heifer needed for Christians? If animal sacrifices are not needed for Christians, does the Bible prophesy future animal sacrifices? …
Repentance for Christians
Protestant writer Michael Brown wrote an article titled 'The Lost Art of Repentance.' What problems has he found related to preachers, repentance, and the gospel? Did Jesus teach repentance? Did the Apostle Peter teach repentance? What about faith? Does God only give the Holy Spirit to those who obey Him according to the Book of Acts? Who does the Book of Hebrews teach Jesus is the author of eternal salvation for? Do real Christians actually sin according to the Apostle John? …
European Babylonian Singularity
On March 23, 2023, Pope Francis spoke before COMECE, which is the Commission of the Episcopates of the European Union. He stated that European unity cannot be uniform, but that it needed to be a unity recognizing the singularities of the peoples and cultures in Europe. He said the two dreams of Europe's founding fathers were for unity and peace. He wanted his church to help inspire this, but also repeatedly pointed to history. Europe's …
Where is the Ark of the Covenant?
Protestant writer Michael Snyder says that the Ark of the Covenant from the Bible is about to be found and that he knows exactly where it is. The Temple Institute believes it will be found soon and that it knows where it is. Why, supposedly, has no one uncovered it? Is Daniel 9:27 proof that the Ark of the Covenant is about to be found? What about Vendyl Jones? Is this Ark in Jerusalem in a cave or passage under what is called the Temple Mount? Does the Bible state that …
