Scientists have warned us that California is way overdue for a major earthquake and that “the Big One” could literally strike at any time.
That is why I was so alarmed when the Los Angeles Times reported that “two sets of earthquake swarms” had just hit the state. After seeing that story, I went over to the Southern California Earthquake Data Center to check how many earthquakes have shaken the region during the past week.
As I write this article, the total number of earthquakes in California and Nevada in the last seven days is sitting at a grand total of 1,010. To me, whenever that number go ..read more

Voices are gradually rising as many realize Christianity is on the brink of worldwide persecution.
The West has abandoned the principles on which it was built, and is instead silencing the voices of any who declare the ways of God and the salvation found in Jesus Christ. It has turned its back on the ways of God and embraced the ways of man.
But is persecution the greatest threat facing the spread of the Gospel message today?
According to George Barna, founder of the market research firm The Barna Group, in an interview with The Christian Post, there are several “negative trends” that have led ..read more

Joel Osteen celebrated his latest milestone at Lakewood Church this past Sunday.
Osteen’s latest message was the 1,000th sermon he’s preached since taking the position as Pastor of Lakewood Church in 1999 after his father’s death. This comes right after the 65th anniversary of the church.
In a special video message, Osteen admits that he tried at first to be like his father when he took the position as pastor. However, he says one day while reading in the book of Acts God helped direct him toward his distinct purpose.

America has reached a sad state in her education where students are simply not safe in public schools anymore.
The threat of physical violence in many of the nation’s schools is not the only, or even most dangerous, factor facing young Americans today.
It is the schools’ constant indoctrination into dark and deceptive practices and ideologies that have left an entire generation confused and spiritually oppressed.
Things are so bad that social media accounts like Libs of TikTok have risen to the mainstream of society because they hold a mirror up to horrific practices being pushed onto children ..read more

Is prosperity biblical?
This question has been asked for decades, and in light of recent footage and Benny Hinn’s admittance to making mistakes in regards to prosperity, it’s come back to the surface of what it looks like from a biblical position.
In an interview with Stephen Strang on the Strang Report podcast, Dr. Mark Rutland tackled this topic and how Christians can see prosperity in light of the gospel.
“God is a God of blessing,” Rutland says. “The error comes where people say, ‘if you’re not blessed, you’re doing something wrong. If you’re not blessed, you’re not a Christian.'”

Once thousands of nanobots are zipping around inside your body, will you still be in control of your mind, will and emotions or will the nanobots be running the show?
According to Google, a nanobot is “a hypothetical, very small, self-propelled machine, especially one that has some degree of autonomy and can reproduce.”
Scientists here in the United States have been working on nanobots that can travel through our bodies at astonishing speeds, deliver medicines to targeted locations and even enter our brain cells. Eventually, researchers hope to use nanobots to connect our brai ..read more

Two years ago when I was preaching at a church in Florida, a boy named Roczen was filled with the Holy Spirit during a revival service. He was only about 5 years old. But a week later he felt such boldness that he asked his pastor if he could pray for the entire church. When he prayed for the congregation from the stage, several other people were filled with the Holy Spirit.
Roczen is a regular boy who loves to play with his Matchbox cars and video games. But he has a close relationship with Jesus, and he regularly prays in his prayer language. This weekend I watched as Roczen laid hands on my ..read more
