A Bible Study on the Antichrist, the Trampling of the Holy City, and the Return of the Lord So let us begin. We will start in the Old Testament; Deuteronomy 29:29 sets the boundary: “The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.” So, to be clear, I believe that the Lord Himself closed the door on certainty about timing. Mark 13:32: “But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.”

The largest measurable force behind the region's shorter lives is a habit and the policy environment that let it persist. Hi everyone. I was on YouTube as I am most days and I came across a video titled. Jordan Peeples', "I Exposed the Industry Killing the South," caught my attention. She's an economist, so I thought I'd share what I learned. Throughout the video, she points out that life expectancy in America increased in the second half of the 20th century. The gains did not reach all. In a National Bureau of Economic Research paper published in December 2025, Foote, Meara, Skinner and Stewart find that the life-expectancy gap between college-educated and non-college-educated adults increased from 2.6 years in 1992 to 6.3 years in 2019, and that mortality inequality at the county level increased by about 30 percent. College grads did well in nearly every category. But adults without a degree didn't, and location started to matter more.

Is it a privilege or a right? Do we take it for granted or respect it seriously? Are we self-absorbed or empathetic?

I feel like me and my friends are the only ones in our school who actually act like normal kids and have a real childhood. like, why am i the only one who doesn't have youtube, Instagram, Roblox, TikTok, whatever and who's brain isn't completely fried

This isn't really about wedding tradition. It's about discovering who truly walked beside you long before your wedding day.

Why Lincoln and McKinley Don't Belong in the Same Conspiracy Every few years someone tries to draw a straight line between Abraham Lincoln's assassination and William McKinley's. The pattern feels compelling on the surface: two presidents killed by gunfire, both associated with major shifts in American power, both dead before their work was finished. It's tempting to look for a hidden hand behind both killings, some elite interest that needed each man removed.

How Did Man Live Before God Gave Israel the Torah? Exploring the biblical record of humanity's relationship with God from Creation through the Patriarchs: conscience, covenant, and direct revelation in the absence of the written Mosaic Law. One of the most common questions about the Bible's timeline is this: how did people know right from wrong, and how did they relate to God, before the Ten Commandments and the full Law of Moses were given at Mount Sinai? The answer reveals something profound about God's consistent character. He has always dealt with humanity through relationship, revelation, and covenant, not just rules. Let's walk through the biblical record with clarity and forensic honesty.

Before time had a name, there was only Elohim—the God of all power—and an endless, silent expanse. The cosmos was empty, formless, and enveloped in deep, pitch-darkness. Yet, amidst the stillness, the Spirit of God hovered over the primordial waters, poised like a breath before a masterpiece. Then, the silence broke.

The City of David Is Part of Jerusalem "Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David." (2 Samuel 5:7) "So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward." (2 Samuel 5:9) "And David dwelt in the castle; therefore they called it the city of David." (1 Chronicles 11:7) "And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come hither. Nevertheless David took the castle of Zion, which is the city of David." (1 Chronicles 11:5)

A response to a reader named Vic Steblin who replied to my article… Vic said, “Apply Bayes' formula to all of history and also all of science, and one gets ZERO probability of anything supernatural. Use honest humility; there is NO GOD, and move on!” Now here is my reply… Vic, Bayes' theorem does not give a zero probability for God or the supernatural. You inserted the zero before doing the calculation. Bayes' theorem can be written: P(God | Evidence) = P(Evidence | God) × P(God) ÷ P(Evidence)

Hello everyone. I want to return to an article from 2012 and update it for 2026. The piece I am writing now is based on Caron Beesley's 2012 overview of employee background checks. I am conducting this update for my public group, Ethics of Marijuana and Workplace Safety. Today is June 28, 2026. So let us go back in time to 2012, when Caron Beesley examined the growing use of Facebook searches, credit reports, and criminal records in hiring. The core questions she raised still stand. Employers still need reliable information.

Moving on to the second biggest threat to the world, war. A scary, contentious word uttered by pro and anti-war civilians alike. Here’s the thing about war: it is always preventable. There is no reason domestic and international issues can’t be settled in a mature conversation. They can even yell if they want, I don’t care, but war is childish, and the world leaders need to grow up or get in a cage match themselves.

While pollution poses the greatest risk to the planet, we can’t forget that we and wildlife alike are affected by other environmental hazards and dangers as well. Hunting and poaching are huge culprits in endangering species and disrupting nature as a whole.

This is the story of a world on fire. Let me know if it sounds familiar. 1776, New York City, we’ve just won the Revolutionary War, and it’s time to discuss government. Looking back, I wonder if their intentions were good. What would they think if they could see the state of things? Total devastation is what I’d hope, but maybe not what I believe. Their hate wasn’t so different from ours; they killed and passed unjust bills and looked up to the White Man™, too. At least they didn’t have microplastics.

What Fred Hoyle found when he followed the numbers, and why he could not explain it away There is a particular kind of witness whose testimony carries more weight than any other. Not the friend of the accused. Not the paid expert. The hostile witness: the one who came to testify for the other side, who wanted a different verdict, and who told the truth anyway because the facts left him no room. Sir Fred Hoyle is that kind of witness.

Most people remember Sir Fred Hoyle for one thing. He was the astronomer who compared the origin of life to a tornado passing through a junkyard and assembling a Boeing 747. Supporters quote it. Critics mock it. Almost nobody discusses the deeper issue that drove Hoyle to make the comparison in the first place. The real issue was not chemistry. It was information.

we can learn to honor the Black man and the Black woman as divine beings worthy of dignity—regardless of our current emotional state—we change the trajectory of our entire culture.

Three lies that govern a people, and the one command that breaks them There is a sentence I have come to fear more than any slogan a tyrant ever shouted. It is quiet. It is usually said with a shrug by a tired, decent person who means no harm, and it goes like this: I do not know what to believe anymore. That sentence sounds like humility. Most of the time, it is surrender. A man who can no longer tell truth from counterfeit has not become wise. He has become governable. He will believe the next confident voice, or he will believe nothing and call his exhaustion discernment. Either way, someone else now holds the pen that writes his reality.
