Aging Populations Create Demographic Crises In this century, people are living longer and retiring at about the same age as in the last century. This results in an increasingly aging population that does not work and thus needs to be financially sustained by the work of the younger generation. This makes it more difficult for the younger generation to gain higher education and own a home. Similarly, and more alarming, is that many nations are experiencing a declining birth rate...

Jesus Taught about Hypocrites Judging Others Donald Trump often judges other people about things that he himself is is more guilty about. I mention this in my book, Bible Predicts Trump Fall, about how Trump violates Jesus’ teaching in his Sermon on the Mount about judging (Matthew 7.1-5). He calls the person a “hypocrite” who judges someone for some particular behavior while that person is far more guilty of such behavior. Jesus the carpenter uses hyperbole in saying it is...

Trump Wants Greenland U.S. President Donald Trump has been threatening to force Greenland to become a part of the U.S. He has said that he will do it the easy way, by purchasing Greenland, or the hard way, by attacking Greenland with the U.S. military. Of course, as with many things Donald Trump does as U.S. president, he does not inquire of Congress about it or in any way what Americans think of it. Polls show overwhelmingly that Americans do...

I wrote a book entitled Bible Predicts Trump Fall. It is happening. In a week from now, Donald Trump will have completed the first year of his second term as U.S. president. The following are some things that have been happening, showing that Donald Trump is in free fall. Two Federal Investigations Deemed Trump Guilty When President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, Trump then engaged in behavior to overturn the results of the election to remain...

John the Baptist said to Jesus, “Here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” Question Stated A guy wrote to me about Jesus’ crucifixion death. He asked, “Can you explain to me why God would require a murder and blood in order to forgive man’s sin. … The God I’ve come to engage and seek forgiveness from does not need the blood of an innocent man to forgive me. My understanding of God is... Read more
Christianity has been growing in China, as well as parts of Southeast Asia, for many decades. When the Chinese Communist Party came to power in China, in 1949, its atheistic posture was opposed to all religion. Yet Christian missionaries, especially Presbyterians, had previously had a profound impact on the nation. Billy Graham’s father-in-law, Nelson Bell, had been a medical missionary in China for 25 years and then departed in 1941 due to the instability of the nation. China’s Repression of... Read more
Hear a podcast in which Bill Schlegel, on his One God Report, and I discuss whether or not Christmas indicates that Jesus preexisted and therefore literally came down from heaven to become the baby Jesus. For, Jesus had proclaimed in his bread of life sermon, in John 6.35 and v. 38, “I am the bread of life. … I have come down from heaven.” Read more
Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727) was the famous physicist and mathematician who discovered gravity and the laws of motion. He once made a statement that seems so foreign to his brilliance and expertise in unravelling complex issues. He said, “Truth is ever to be found in simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.” I think Newton had in mind not only science but also theology when he said that. It’s the formula KISS: Keep It Simple Stupid! Newton... Read more
It is as I predicted in my book, Bible Predicts Trump Fall. This book is mostly an anthology of 200 posts—each about 1.5 pages in length—on my Kermit Zarley Blog from the time that Donald Trump began his first campaign for the U.S. presidency, in the summer of 2015, to his exit from the White House in early 2021. The first and last chapters are much longer. The introductory first chapter provides mostly a family history of how Donald Trump... Read more
Sir Isaac Newton was one of the smartest men who ever lived. He was a mathematician and a scientist who discovered gravity. He and Albert Einstein were the two most influential scientists ever. Newton also was a very devout Christian and student of the Bible. His friend John Locke—a member of the so-called Newton Circle, whose writings later had a profound influence on the crafting of the U.S. Constitution through Thomas Jefferson—wrote of Newton’s “great knowledge of the Scriptures, wherein...
