No sooner had the panic receded than the second woe came quickly in the form of Russia’s recent Special Military Operation in Ukraine, and more particularly the West’s heavy-handed response to it with sanctions. And now the sabotage of Nord Stream pipelines has awakened the citizens of Europe especially, to just [...]

Friday, August 12 You will be beaten in synagogues and be put on the stand before governors and kings.—Mark 13:9. As those words indicate, some Christians will face tribulation in the form of physical persecution, perhaps at the instigation of religious or political leaders. Consider Paul’s example.

Although Jeremiah also penned an entire Bible book called Lamentations lamenting the fall of Jerusalem, he also expressed his grief in the book bearing his name. In the eighth chapter, the prophet wrote: [...]
