Over the past month, we have heard about a lot of horrible things that are happening on the other side of the globe.  In particular, I have been greatly distressed to hear accounts of prisoners of war being shot in the knees or tortured in other ways in Ukraine.  Mistreatment of prisoners of war definitely deserves news coverage, but there are many other crimes against humanity that happen on a daily basis that never receive any news coverage at all.  Globally, there is one minority group that is oppressed, persecuted and violently attacked far more than any other.  But the mainstream media never talks about it, because the minority group that I am referring to is Christians.

I simply do not understand why so many on the left and so many on the right seem determined to push us into a military conflict with Russia.  If we get into a shooting war with Russia, one side or the other will inevitably decide that they want to use their nuclear weapons before the other side conducts a surprise first strike of their own.  But no matter who strikes first, the whole world would lose, because the vast majority of the global population would end up dead within a few years.  This is why I have been so adamant about trying to find a peaceful solution to the crisis in Ukraine.  If we have a nuclear conflict with Russia, the vast majority of you that are reading this article would die.

Most Americans realize that there is corruption in Washington, but very few understand how deep it really goes.  If the general population really did grasp how corrupt our politicians have truly become, there would be endless protests in the streets of Washington starting tomorrow.  Unfortunately, most of us are still convinced that one of the major political parties will ultimately vanquish the other party and restore integrity to our system.  But what if both major political parties are rotten to the core?

I realize that this article isn’t going to be for everyone, but if you have a deep interest in Bible prophecy I believe that you are going to be very interested in what I have to share.  God has a calendar that is very different from the calendar that our society uses, and that calendar can be found in the Bible.  All throughout history, important historical events have happened during extremely significant times on God’s calendar, and I believe that there is a very good chance that this upcoming Biblical year will be a critical turning point.

A new survey has found that the vast majority of Americans believe that the country is on the wrong track morally, but meanwhile the nation continues to move away from organized religion at an unprecedented rate.  Needless to say, America’s moral decline has been a focus of mine for a very long time.  Our society has been steadily decaying for decades, and our culture is now radically different than it was when I was growing up.  I would love to see our culture return to the way that it was 50 or 60 years ago, but I don’t think that is ever going to happen.  Instead, the numbers seem to indicate that our culture is going to continue to deteriorate as older Americans die off and younger Americans gain more power in society.

When I started warning of an emerging global food crisis a number of months ago, many out there assumed that I must be exaggerating things.  Sadly, I was not exaggerating one bit.  The soaring price of fertilizer, extreme global weather patterns, shocking crop failures and an epic global supply chain crisis had combined to create a “perfect storm” even before the war in Ukraine began.  Of course the war has made things far worse, because Russia and Ukraine collectively account for about 30 percent of all worldwide wheat exports under normal conditions.  For a while, the mainstream media and our leaders in Washington were in denial about what was happening, but now everyone is finally admitting the truth.  In fact, at this point even the Biden administration is conceding that a global food crisis is here… (Read More...)

Footage of the violence that is happening on the other side of the planet is shocking Americans on a daily basis, but the truth is that the violence in our own streets is out of control as well.  In 2020, we witnessed the worst single year spike in the national murder rate in U.S. history.  It truly was “unprecedented”, and many experts expected the murder rate to start falling back down in 2021.  But that didn’t happen.  Instead, the murder rate went even higher.  So what is happening in 2022?  Well, many cities are reporting that murder rates are even higher than they were in 2021.  For example, Portland has seen a 10 percent increase in the murder rate compared to last year’s record number… (Read More...)
