Why Being Pro-Israel is not Enough

By Dalton Lifsey One of the primary reasons that I wrote Ԕhe Controversy of Zion and the Time of Jacobӳ TroubleԠwas to address the rampant confusion in the Body of Christ pertaining to the question of the future of the Land of Israel; particularly among those who identify themselves as Pro-Israel.

Interview with an Islamist

By Joel Richardson ɠ2011 On Jan. 31, immediately after revolution broke out in the Middle East, I predicted that the end result would be anything but a grand victory for Western-style secular democracy.

Arab Spring: Democracy or Caliphate?

Rarely do I post articles or news stories these days, but the following piece, written by Syed Shariq, a Muslim analyst of the Middle East, articulates precisely what we’ve been expressing on this blog for years now.

The Dangers of Dominionism

Joel Richardson What any Christian believes concerning the futureشheir eschatologyءbsolutely determines their message and their mission. Likewise, what one believes concerning the nature of the Kingdom of God will also determine their message and their mission.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper is a fraud

Queers for Palestine?

Joel Richardson OK, Jew haters. Uncle. I give up. Your over-the-top, irrational hatred of Israel genuinely knows no limits.
