Traditional Cross Throughout the 2,000-year history of Christianity, the traditional view of the shape of Jesus’s cross has been a vertical post or stake with a crossbeam attached to it near the top of the post, but not at the top as in the shape of the letter T. The two words used in the Greek New Testament to described Jesus’ cross are stauros and xylon, and neither of them indicate its shape. In modern times, some scholars have challenged... Read more
Wuhan Market Origin A new analysis of the origin of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus by an elite, international, research team further confirms China’s determination—that COVID-19 originated at the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in the mega-city Wuhan. I suggested this in my book, Moses Predicted COVID-19, which I wrote in three months and began the process of publishing it in June, 2020. Lab Leak Origin Theory Some people had opposed this determination, alleging that COVID-19 originated near this seafood market in a... Read more
Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ father, Mike Huckabee, was a Christian pastor and then the governor of Arkansas in 1996-2007. Sarah was President Donald Trump’s first press secretary and is now the governor of Arkansas. Last Tuesday, she spoke at a Republican town hall meeting in Flint, Michigan, preceding Trump. She made a comment that was similar to a comment by J.D. Vance, Trump’s running mate for the White House. Vance denigrated women without kids by calling them “childless cat ladies.” So,... Read more
Former U.S. President and Republican Donald Trump is possessed about the number of people he draws to his political rallies. It became an issue in the recent debate between him and his Democratic rival for the presidency, Vice President Kamala Harris. She deftly caused him to divert from his script to defending against her assertion that people were leaving his rallies early. This Harris allegation was true, whereas it was not happening at her political rallies. Today’s New York Times... Read more
Jesus grew up and lived in the village of Nazareth in Galilee. But the heart of the nation of Israel was always Judea to the south. That is where Jerusalem was located, with the temple there. According to the Law of Moses, three times per year Jewish men all over the land of Israel, which included Galilee, had to go to Jerusalem to worship God during three festivals. And the high priests of the Sanhedrin lived at Jerusalem. They controlled... Read more
CNBC asked Matt Abrahams, expert on communications at Stanford University, about asking questions since some people think it makes us look weak and insecure. I think it’s macho men who often think this way and people who project a know-it-all attitude. Abrahams says asking good questions “demonstrates you care, it demonstrates empathy, it demonstrates you’re willing to learn, and, in some cases admit you don’t know everything.” He says we should listen tentatively to others before asking them questions. Abrahams... Read more
Democrat Kamala Harris Has Momentum Today, there are 48 days left before the U.S. presidential election on November 5th. Politicians on the both sides of the aisle and pundits agree that Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris soundly won the debate on September 10th with Republican former president Donald Trump. And polls ever since have shown that Harris is enjoying a momentum swinging in the direction of her political campaign. Most show that since President Joe Biden pulled out of the... Read more
I think so. Donald Trump is the biggest liar and most arrogant person I have ever seen. The Bible says of such people, “When pride comes, then comes disgrace” (Proverbs 11:2). And it says, “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18). In recent days, everything has been going wrong for former Republican U.S. President Donald Trump in his campaign for a second presidential term to be decided in a few weeks, on November 5th....

Yesterday, China freed an American pastor—68-year old David Lin—after nearly twenty years of imprisonment for merely trying to establish an illegal house church. Mr. Lin had been given a life sentence, and it was cut short by the Biden administration’s constant insistence that he was wrongfully charge and should be released. The Chinese Communist Party requires all churches be registered with the state and controlled by it, sometimes even supplying churches with selected pastors. Mr. Lin was born in China... Read more
Today, and for the first time, the Houthis in Yemen fired a surface-to-surface hypersonic ballistic missile into Israel. Israel intercepted it in the air by fragmenting it, but not completely destroying it. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu then declared Israel is in a “a multi-front campaign against Iran’s axis of evil, which is striving for our destruction.” He added that the Houthis “should have known by now that we exact a heavy price for any attempt to harm us.” What...
