MOODY BIBLE VIDEO ON HISTORY’S Fallen City’s and Nations The city is Satan's demonic concentration camps where He through his godless and lawless minions seek to destroy, indoctrinate and corrupt the nations (Eph. 2:1-2). History testifies to this reality! As we see our cities today here in America super abounding in growing EXPONENTIAL lawlessness and godlessness we know that it cannot be too long for our nation. The City today in America is more and more dictating demonic godless ideology to the states and is supplying abundantly the votes needed to over ride the majority of the voters of their...

WASHINGTON, March 21, 2006 – The commander of the Army unit that played a key role in routing terrorists from Tal Afar, Iraq, last fall agreed today with President Bush's assertion that headway in the city represents a concrete example of progress taking place in Iraq. Army Col. H.R.

It also demonstrated that Iraqi security forces are gaining in capabilities and proving themselves as partners...

Sacrificial burial deepens mystery at Teotihuacan, but confirms the city’s militarism Partially uncovered figurine, carved in jade, found in connection with three unbound, seated bodies and other objects at the top of the pyramid’s fifth stage (the offering was presumably made in the construction of the sixth stage), circa 350 AD. This object is notable in that it is carved from jade that originated in Guatemala, and appears to be Mayan in style. Other jade objects on top of the figurine are beads and earspools. A spectacular new discovery from an ongoing excavation at the Teotihuacan’s Pyramid of the Moon...
