The Vatican, Aliens, and the Coming Great Deception: A Biblical Analysis of End-Times Scenarios

Imagine waking up to headlines proclaiming, “The Vatican Confirms the Existence of Intelligent Extraterrestrial Life.” With one statement, the spiritual and scientific foundations of billions would be shaken. But what would such a declaration really mean? For those who take biblical prophecy seriously, it might not be the dawn of new enlightenment—but the beginning of a global deception foretold in Scripture.

God Will Not Be Mocked

What in the world has happened to our pastors and churches?  How did we stray so unbelievably far from the example that Christ and His disciples set forth — examples and commands we find in God’s Word, which is not “outdated” or “irrelevant” but rather, essential for proper and orderly worship of God, reverence for our Creator and Sustainer and vital for making modern day, Christ-following disciples?

Do Your Rights Come from God?

The Decline and Fall of the Democrat Party; Is it Permanent? by George Mcclellan

For some reason, the Democratic Party still appears to be surviving its internal Marxist rot, but the Party is not so much failing as it is just dissolving. The Party, now firmly in Socialist hands, has attempted to replace the Christian religion with some silly idea that government (theirs of course) should be the sole source of our happiness and therefore our religion.

Jesus’s Church in 2026!

After the 50th Wedding Anniversary celebrations for a Classmate and his wife in Florida, another Classmate and I went to church with them before we left for home.  It was another Evangelical church on fire for the Lord Jesus Christ!  So much so that they are planting another church about 15 minutes away.  On their own.  No help from any church hierarchy or authority.

The failure of the Israelites to fully carry out God’s command regarding the Amalekites has been cited as a contributing factor to continued chaos and disorder in the Middle East, echoing throughout history as a lesson in the consequences of disobedience to divine instruction.

What a small price to pay

What does it mean to you to be a Christian?  When you hear someone say they’re a “Christian,” what does that actually mean?  Does it mean they attend a church on a regular basis?  Does it mean they grew up in a Christian family and believe in God?  Does it mean they once prayed a “sinner’s prayer” — perhaps as a child at summer camp?  I ask these things because when people tell me they’re a “Christian,” I have to wonder, because “being a Christian” doesn’t seem to mean what it used to mean.
