Jehovah’s intent for ancient Israel was that they would be a glorious standard of wisdom to all the nations of the world as they upheld his righteous laws. He told them: 6Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these [...]

Israel’s blessings abound in the form of shale oil
Since the time of the Egyptian uprisings a year ago, oil pipelines from Egypt to Israel have been sabotaged several times, proving how volatile Egypt/Israel relations have become in the wake of the Muslim Brotherhood’s lust for power over the Arab/Muslim masses. When you add to that the new wave of anti-Israel sentiments rising throughout [...]

The myth of “three Abrahamic faiths”
I once had a pastor who told me that he made it a point to avoid any religious criticism of Jews, Catholics, and Muslims. When I asked him to explain, he stated that all of them were Abrahamic faiths, that all Christianity (Protestant and Catholic), Judaism, and Islam can trace their spiritual heritage back to [...]

In spite of the assurances the supposedly temporary military government in Egypt has given that it will honor its peace treaty with Israel, a news report today says Israel is still on edge about how Egypt will turn out.

The Dangers of Replacement Theology
Throughout the history of the Christian church, there have been many harmful doctrines introduced into the church. One such harmful doctrine is known as Replacement Theology.

Israel’s right to defend itself
Let me say from the start that I think all of the Muslims who are supposedly upset with Israel over the raid of Turkish ships are disingenuous. As Cal Thomas pointed out in his syndicated columnist yesterday, the 1994 Gaza-Jericho agreement, signed by Palestinian leaders, stated that Israel’s Navy would have the right to take action against ships they [...]
