That is true! Is Unbelief The Real Reason America’s Pulpits Are Silent Regarding Prophecy?: I’m weary of the excuses that I hear from pastors as to why they cannot talk about Jesus’ glorious return for His church. I’m tired of preachers going to great lengths to avoid saying the dreaded word, “Rapture.” You would think the church building roof would instantly cave in on the worshippers at even the mention of such a dreaded word. Why are pastors today so afraid to talk about our future new bodies and Jesus’ return to take us to the place that He is preparing for us (John 14:1-3)? The good news they have to share is beyond spectacular and amazing, yet so many go to great lengths to avoid talking about our “blessed hope.” Pastors say they fear causing division, but is that any reason to avoid teaching what Scripture tells us about the day in which we live? Is that any cause to withhold the truths about our glorious future from the ones who need it the most as they face perilous times? Pastors today have the most spectacular news, an over-the-top wonderful and joyous hope to share with their people. Why the silence? Perhaps I am far too critical, but I think that if pastors truly believed what Scripture says about the end times, Jesus’ appearing, the glorious restoration of Israel, and our reign with Christ during the Millennium, how can they possibly remain silent about these glorious truths? Do they not understand all the treasures that Jesus has prepared for us beginning with the Rapture and our immortal bodies? Why should fear keep anyone from sharing such spectacular and joyous news even with unbelievers? I sometimes wonder why I see these things when so many leaders of our churches do not. But then I realize that it’s not me at all, it’s just what the Bible says. I simply believe the words on the page with the ongoing help of the Holy Spirit inside me. Unprecedented flooding hits Yellowstone National Park, U.S.: Destructive flooding and landslides hit Yellowstone National Park and nearby communities on June 13, 2022, washing out numerous roads and bridges in the area, cutting off electricity, and forcing people to evacuate. The floods hit during one of Yellowstone’s busiest months. News of catastrophic flooding near one of the ‘gates to Yellowstone park,’ Red Lodge, Montana, broke this morning, with videos surfacing online showing flood waters flowing down Broadway Street in Red Lodge.1 More than 60 people were stranded in the area, including miners at the Stillwater Mine near Nye, after the flood waters washed away the road leading to the mine. “Due to record flooding events in the park and more precipitation in the forecast, we have made the decision to close Yellowstone to all inbound visitation,” said Yellowstone NP superintendent Cam Sholly.

The proposed bovine mask weighs approximately 100 grams (approximately 3.5 oz), and contains solar-powered fans intended to redirect methane emissions from cows chewing their cud into a chamber which chemically converts the methane into carbon dioxide and water vapor. Other critics focused on the absurdity of what the Prince of Wales thought could help the climate. Meanwhile, many climate scientists — even climate-fanatic scientists — have dismissed the notion that a trace gas such as methane has much, if any, effect on global warming. Some climate modelers have even omitted it from their models. Twitter user Perry Lucas summed it up well, saying “Our future King, Prince Charles backs a face mask device for cows that catches Methane emissions in order to stop climate change. ….what is he smoking? Truly we are living in clown world.” https://thenewamerican.com/more-climate-insanity-prince-charles-wants-cows-to-wear-face-masks/ US abortions increase: 1 out of 5 preborn babies were killed in 2020: The number of abortions in the U.S. increased for the first time in three decades in 2020, with abortion pills responsible for the majority of terminated pregnancies, also for the first time, according to new data published Wednesday. The increase in abortions was accompanied by a 6% decline in births between 2017 and 2020. Since there were an estimated 3.6 million births and about 930,000 abortions in 2020, the data shows fewer people were getting pregnant, and among those who did, more pregnant women sought an abortion, the Guttmacher Institute said. One in five unborn children were killed by abortion in 2020, according to the report. https://www.theblaze.com/news/us-abortions-increase-1-out-of-5-preborn-babies-were-killed-in-2020 China: U.S. Could ‘Spark World War III’ by Diversifying Mineral Supply Chains: China’s state-run Global Times on Thursday warned the United States could “spark World War III” by pushing too hard to decouple from the Chinese minerals industry by developing its own supply. After a little throat-clearing and harrumphing about how “it’s reasonable for any country to diversify its supply chains that involve critical resources,” the Global Times said China would consider it tantamount to an act of war if the U.S. diversifies too much because Beijing sees decoupling as preparation for “an all-out conflict” with America’s “strategic competitors” that could escalate into “World War III.” Godless Britain: Christian Factory Worker Fired for Wearing Cross Necklace: A Christian factory worker in the UK has won £22,000 in compensation after being fired for wearing a cross necklace at work. Jevgenijs Kovalkovs, who previously served as an employee at a factory for 2 Sisters Food Group Limited in Coupar Angus, Scotland, successfully sued his former employer for discrimination after being fired for wearing a crucifix at work. However, despite the company having an exception for jewelry with religious significance, Kovalkovs’ line manager at the chicken factory had told him to not wear the cross. Upon seeing Kovalkovs wear the Christian symbol a second time, he was fired “immediately."

Iran says rocket launch coming after photos show preparation: DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran acknowledged Wednesday it plans two tests for its new solid-fueled rocket after satellite photos showed preparations at a desert launch pad previously used in the program, even as tensions remain high over Tehran’s rapidly advancing nuclear program. One set of images showed a rocket on a transporter, preparing to be lifted and put on a launch tower. A later image Tuesday afternoon showed the rocket apparently on the tower. Though it isn’t clear when the launch will take place, erecting a rocket typically means a launch is imminent. Building a nuclear bomb would still take Iran more time if it pursued a weapon, analysts say, though they warn Tehran’s advances make the program more dangerous. Israel has threatened in the past that it would carry out a preemptive strike to stop Iran — and already is suspected in a series of recent killings targeting Iranian officials. Patricia- thanks so much for posting these links w/ info from them- i appreciate it even though some things i just can't believe i'm reading... the world has truly gone nuts...i've heard a lot of craziness in the past couple years, but the cow mask is mind blowing and would be hilarious if i didn't think someone might actually try it and try to enforce it...poor cows...the power hungry, greedy and most controlling people on earth are insanely taking over everything as fast as they can and because so many had all their hope in this life only and in our governments to make this life the way they want it instead of seeking, finding and trusting God, they are killing their babies out of hopelessness, fear and i'm sure some out of selfishness instead of calling out to the Lord Jesus and being saved spiritually (if they aren't already) and experiencing that our Heavenly Father takes care of His own and will help them take care of theirs... He had it written so we would know that children are a gift from Him see Psalm 127:3 He loves them and He loves each of those mothers and fathers and longs to draw them near in the difficult circumstances- for His glory and their good!
