One of the issues that some point to in order to claim that Gog […]

A Critical Review Of the Islamic End Time Paradigm By Jacob Prasch

Does Bible really predict Russian invasion of Israel?

What Obama and the Antichrist have in common

By Joel Richardson World Net Daily: Few will argue that President Barack Obama fueled his campaign with a textbook populist message.
