We issue no disclaimer for anything included in the articles at the time of publication. Unfortunately, there will always be a backlog of persons or things we once endorsed but due to later events we now consider unscriptural. We trust our readers will bear this in mind when reading what is posted here. From time to time we remove material we no longer consider relevant or scripturally sound.

The Real Genuflection To The Saudis

In a betrayal and slap to the face of the families of 9/11 victims that some would define as treasonous Barack Hussein Obama has blocked the right of families to litigate against the Saudi government and TS princes who financially supported Al Qaeda and persecute Christians. He now continues to bow the knee to Islamic intolerance and extremism. Obama's betrayal of Israel will bring God's further judgment on the USA. Please join with us in praying that God will swiftly raise His almighty hand in judgment against Obama before his wrath comes on America because of Obama.

Camera.org In its June 2009 issue, National Geographic demonstrated just how far it is willing to go to scapegoat Israel for suffering in the Middle East. The magazine also showed how far it is willing to go to downplay the role Islam played in contributing to Christianity's decline in the region. In an article written by Don Belt, the magazine's senior editor for foreign affairs, National Geographic portrays the departure of Christians from the Holy Land as largely a consequence of Israeli (and American) policies in the region. The article offers no honest description of the well-documented mistreatment of Christians at the hands of Muslim majority populations in the Middle East.Read more ...

http://www.newswithviews.com/PaulProctor/proctor179.htm It's time to prepare for hard times, my friends. And, if you're a bible believing, Christ-following Christian, I believe the coming years will be particularly troublesome. I say "bible-believing, Christ-following Christian" because our degenerating culture has all but stripped the biblical definition of the word "Christian" from today's collective conscience so that it has lost much of it's scriptural meaning, even among many of today's attending church members.Read more ...
 

The Coming Confrontation Ezekiel 38: Israel and Iran

President Barack Obama is meeting with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an effort to bring about peace in the Middle East. This means solving the Iranian nuclear weapons problem and moving forward with a two-state solution and an international Jerusalem. The Pope visited Jerusalem because the Vatican hopes to lead a coming one world religion and control Jerusalem Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, and President Obama are going to discuss a two-state solution to end the Arab-Israeli conflict and other options.
The three crucial issues in their meeting will be:
 
There is a convergence of military, economic, spiritual and political events that amount to a Prophetic Perfect Storm. First we have a global economic meltdown which has turned up the heat hot for the United States, the EU, Russia, the Arab nations, Iran, Pakistan, Israel, China, Mexico and just about every nation on Planet Earth. Global economies are reeling and nation-states are desperate to economically survive and prosper. Now comes the big crisis which is Israel, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and nuclear weapons in the hands of militant Islam.

The Patented RFID Ink Tattoo

The SOMARK identification system is a chipless radio frequency identification (RFID) platform. Typical RFID systems use a microchip and an antenna embedded in a tag affixed to an object. The SOMARK chipless system eliminates the high-cost microchip and antenna, instead using simply an electronic ink to create the identification "˜tag'. This ink is deposited directly onto or within the object which creates seamless integration of the object and the identification of that object.

On Eating Certain Foods

Since Noah knew about clean and unclean animals (Gen. 7:1-10), this distinction was part of an ancient tradition that antedated the Mosaic Law. Whether a creature was "clean" or "unclean had nothing to do with the animal being "good" or "bad", "strong" or "weak"; it all depended on what God said about the animal that mattered. When He gave us these laws, He probably had the health of His people in mind (Ex. 15:26; Deut. 7:15), yet the main purpose of Kashrut (or the dietary laws) was to instruct the Israelites that they belonged to God and were obligated to keep themselves separated from everything that would defile them. "Be holy, for I am holy" He tells them 8 times in Leviticus.
