Sodom, Vaccines, Wokeness and NAR
Of course, not all archaeologists agree that the area was the ancient site known as Sodom. It must be remembered that many to most archaeologists are atheists or at least agnostics. They claim to simply pursue the science, yet when things point to the Bible, they often deny any and all connections. At most, what some may do is state that Tall el Hamman occurred and the story was passed down to successive generations and then eventually someone wrote it down and the narrative was picked up by the writers of the Bible and included in the text, while changing significant points to make it more in line with the purpose of the Bible.

Why We Should Look Up
Looking up is the duty of every believer, to keep us from getting so bound up in and distracted by this world’s offerings. Paul, as he realized his physical death was approaching, noted to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4:8, “Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.” (ESV)

Zechariah 9: Israel’s Enemies Judged
In verses 11-17, God’s final deliverance and blessing of Israel will happen when Messiah returns. God will, with finality, save His people (the final Jewish remnant). Jesus will destroy all of Israel’s enemies upon His return through judgment and then He will also judge all nations (Matthew 24:31-46).
Hostile Takeover?
It is clear to me that Trump has learned a great deal since his first term. I hope he flushes out all the woke leftists hidden in the West Wing and in other areas of the federal government. If they’re unwilling to cooperate with Trump’s America First policy, then I’m going to assume they’ll be forced to resign, asked to resign, or relocated to some other position. He is planning on doing this with the 88,000 new IRS hires. He just recently fired 80 officials within the DOJ including the FBI. He has revoked security clearances of the 51 spies who signed a letter stating that the Hunter Biden laptop controversy was Russian collusion, when in point of fact, we now know beyond doubt that the laptop was the real thing.
Tragedy of Hating Jews and Israel
I do not consider myself a diehard “Zionist.” However, I fully support what God is doing and will accomplish in the nation of Israel by taking a final remnant from that nation who will remain alive to the end of the Tribulation and be rewarded by being allowed to go into the Millennial Kingdom. Many Gentiles will also go into that same kingdom. There, that Jewish final remnant will finally understand what all the Abrahamic promises were all about. I also fully support what God is going to accomplish in many other nations throughout the world that will enter the Millennial Kingdom.
Restoring Us to Humanity 1.0 – Motivating Factor
If I could narrow things down to a more simplistic view of this whole process, I’d say that it all boils down to what we can call our motivating factor. In essence, all people are motivating by something in life. I’m not talking about being motivated to become a doctor or lawyer, teacher or healthcare worker, etc. I’m talking about the thing that motivates a person is all aspects of their life. In essence, that motivating factor is their foundation from which they make all decisions. Human beings are either motivated by a true love (that only comes from God), or they are motivated by a deep sense of self. That’s really it; as there are only those two true motivators.

Satisfy the Afflicted Soul
If you help people who need help, simply because you are in the position to be able to help them, they will begin to question within themselves why you are helping them. They may not understand at first, because maybe no one has helped them before. It feels weird to them, though at the same time, it is uplifting to them as well.
Living Upright in an Unright World
It’s very clear what Paul was telling Timothy. We are living in the last days and what we are seeing is simply more evidence of demonic activity working through human beings in preparation for the coming final kingdom led by the Antichrist, than anything else. People, as you know, are truly divided today like never before; divided over ideology, gender, race, culture, religion and politics. It’s causing many to draw battle lines.
Context is Really Everything
Today’s Christian need to stop and consider how difficult life was for the average Christian during the first and second centuries. We Christians in America have no real understanding of that because we are simply not physically persecuted like they were then. We might be politically persecuted (oh, woe is us!), but Christians are not accosted on the street for being Christians, neither are we gathered, lined up and executed for our faith as Christians are today in Nigeria and now in Syria by Islamic jihadists who are attempting to bring in the final Islamic Caliphate.

Naboth, Ahab and Lessons of the Elite
If some technocrat came to me and offered me X amount of dollars for my home and land and I refused, I’d be concerned about what might happen after that. There are too many ways for a rich person to ruin a person of average means. If I was then invited to some banquet in my honor, I’d avoid it like the plague.
