Conquering through coercive power

The use of coercive power has increased globally under the cloak of religious nationalism. A few examples: Russia invokes civilizational Orthodoxy Hungary promotes Christian illiberalism India advances religious majoritarianism Iran uses Sharia law to justify repression Elements of Israel’s far  […]

Progress Update - The Seals of Revelation

In the Revelation to John, the ageing apostle describes a scroll with seven seals. In the vision, the Lamb takes that scroll and then begins to break the seals on that scroll - one at a time.  As He does, conditions are released on the earth. I would suggest that you look at these conditions as  […]

Gospel Distortion - A Modern Example

I cite the example below not to single out any one individual or organization, but to illustrate a pattern of moral formation and distortion. I raise it because I see similar signs emerging in Canada, Europe, and elsewhere. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna is a high-profile figure within the MAGA wing of the  […]

Personality profile of the beast / antichrist

Disregarding specific statements about origin or timing, I asked several AI bots to generate a personality profile of the beast / antichrist figure—using only explicit Biblical descriptions. This is what they came up with. Note in particular the Personality Implications identified. These profiles  […]

Regarding Nations and Allegiance

Scripture is careful when it does want you to know allegiance. “They worshiped the Beast” (Rev 13) “They follow the Lamb” (Rev 14) “The kings of the earth committed fornication with her” (Rev 18) When it doesn't, we shouldn't make assumptions. God moves nations whether they acknowledge Him or not.  […]

The Kings from the East

The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. Rev 16:12 We know for sure that their coming is immediately followed by the gathering at Armageddon. And they assembled the kings in the place that in Hebrew  […]

It's hard to watch human systems fail

The lesson from history is humanity is generally incapable of managing its own affairs. That God will eventually restore all things - but on His terms. Scripture is remarkably unsentimental about human self-rule: I know, O LORD, that a man’s way is not his own;      no one who walks directs his own  […]

Patriarchy is a distortion

Note the differences in translation! Version 1 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness... So God created man in His own image;    in the image of God He created him;    male and female He created them. Version 2 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our  […]

The days of Enoch and Elijah

Being, somewhat familiar with Evangelical Christian culture, I remember one song frequently used during worship service - "The Days of Elijah". I don't care for that particular song because it trivializes who Elijah was, what he did, and what he will do (see Malachi). The song, by claiming  […]

MAGA (United States), AfD (Germany), National Rally (France), Fidesz (Hungary), PiS (Poland), Bolsonarismo (Brazil), Hindutva (India), Erdoganism (Turkey), and Putinism (Russia) all share a common loss-based identity — the belief that the nation has been weakened, humiliated, or stolen from its  […]

The Third Seal - loss of purchasing power

I believe that the seals described in the Revelation to John - ch. 6, are describing the release of general conditions on the earth. You can read about that here: The Seals of Revelation The scroll with the seven seals Do the seals describe the activity of the Antichrist? I also believe that the  […]
