  • "ALPHA PREDATORS and the Protestant Inconsistency"

    Join Pastor CA Murray in “ALPHA PREDATORS and the Protestant Inconsistency” as he opens Chapter 7 of the Book of Daniel. In this chapter the pace changes into full ‘prophetic apocalyptic’. This chapter is similar in prophetic content to Daniel chapter 2 but introduces the semitic writing style of “repeat and enlarge.” This is an impressive presentation where symbols are uncovered with more clarity.

    [Catholic Caucus] Catholic doctors, ethicists criticize Pontifical Academy for LifeRepresentatives of the Australian Catholic Medical Association, with the support of several Catholic moral theologians and bioethicists, have criticized a book published by the Pontifical Academy for Life for its lack of understanding of “current science” and specific areas of medicine. The experts argue that the book spreads “misleading and confusing” theological and medical information that contradicts established Church teachings on contraception and assisted reproductive technologies.The book in question, “Etica Teologica Della Vita” (ETV), covers “Theological Ethics of Life: Scripture, Tradition, and Practical Challenges.” The 528-page Italian publication is a synthesis...

    [Catholic Caucus] The pope, the chatter, the corruptionWe know that Pope Bergoglio is obsessed with the idea of ​​chatter. Every time he meets priests and nuns he brings up this concept. He did it countless times and, punctually, he did it again in the house of the Pious Disciples of the Divine Master nuns, where on Wednesday he met seventy-two priests from the diocese of Rome (more than one hundred and fifty had been invited) ordained in the last ten years . It is not difficult to imagine the multiple problems of these priests in a metropolis like Rome. Yet...

  • Are You Running In The Wrong Direction With Bible Prophecy?

    On October 25, 1964, Minnesota Vikings’ star defensive end Jim Marshall recovered a fumbled football, but then ran sixty-six yards the wrong way ending up in his own end zone. Thinking he had scored a touchdown, he spiked the ball, which sailed out of bounds resulting in a safety and two points for the opposing team. Despite Marshall’s error, the Vikings defeated the San Francisco Forty-Niners that day, 27-22. This same type of disorientation affects many teachers of Bible prophecy, too. They become disorientated and confuse the comings and goings of Scripture. They end up running the wrong way. For...

    In a continued blistering indictment against the destructive and damned United Methodist Church denomination, their largest overseas jurisdiction has voted to cut ties with them over their support of same-sex marriage and all things gay at their General Conference earlier this month, resulting in a loss of over a million members in a single day. The United Methodist Church in the Ivory Coast (EMUCI), which has been vocal about the denomination’s drift, held an extraordinary session on May 28th and pulled the trigger, casting their votes to disaffiliate “For reasons of conscience before God and His word, the supreme authority...

    Dear friends, say whatever you want about President Donald Trump, love him or hate him; however, if you are objective and real; you will have to admit that Donald Trump seeks much of our Founding Father's vision in our EXPONENTIALLY technological/ post Judeo/Christian culture here in America! It is absolutely amazing how the demonic legions here in America absolutely hate and despise him (Rom. 1:18-32, Jude 1:10)! They are indeed the children and offspring of Alinsky's master! Their EXPONENTIAL evil zeal and lawless moral relativistic thinking and rage have been on full parade since 2015! If these absolutely hate President...

    Daily Readings from the USCCBMary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah, where she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.” Luke 1:39–42The beautiful feast we celebrate today depicts two miraculous pregnancies. One came about by the overshadowing of the Holy Spirit. The other was the miraculous conception in the womb...

    You know climate change is really bad. I bumped into a wall, not too heavily, but it was climate change that was responsible. It caused the air to be more active as it got warmer, and it helped push me into the wall. I suppose the readers here are looking at this skeptically, especially those who are familiar with my writing. BUT keep reading. I want to repeat an article here related to the recent air incident with Singapore Airlines, where a plane experienced severe air turbulence and plunged 2,000 meters (over 6,000 feet) in a matter of seconds –...

  • Daniel’s Seventy Weeks and Biblical Prophecy

    The chronology provided in Daniel’s prophecy of the Seven­ty Weeks (Dan. 9:24–27) is a linchpin in the dispensa­tional system, although it is not crucial to any of the other millen­nial systems. John Walvoord comments that the “interpretation of Daniel 9:24–27 is of major importance to premillennialism as well as pretribulationism.” Being such, it is the “key” to prophe­cy and, consequently, “one of the most important prophecies of the Bible.” Surely O.T. Allis is correct when he observes that “the impor­tance of the prophecy of the Seventy Weeks in Dispensa­tional teaching can hardly be exaggerated.”[1] This dependence upon Daniel 9 is...

    “And while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering, He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges righteously” (1 Peter 2:23). Jesus Christ, as the sinless sufferer, is the only model we need as we endure life’s trials. Prior to his death in 1555, the English Reformer and martyr Hugh Latimer expressed his convictions this way: “Die once we must; how and where, we know not. . . . Here is not our home; let us therefore accordingly consider things, having always before our eyes that heavenly Jerusalem, and the way thereto in...

Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done? 36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is...

    There have been some sketchy high school graduation speeches in the past, and many did not have their diplomas held back due to the nature of the student’s speech. But throw an off-script praise of Jesus Christ into today’s society and you are sure to ruffle some feathers. This very thing happened to recent graduate Micah Price of Campbell County High School in Alexandria, Kentucky. Price didn’t call for revolutions, he did not promote violence or anything of the sort, instead he followed his faith in a message of support and love. “Class, before another word leaves my mouth, I...
