Wow ok ..i quite agree with what you wrote here. History is a great teacher. That is why i think their trying to erase it or give it a new identity. In there own little way bringing down statues or rewriting history itself..... is not the answer.
We the church have seperated ourselves from the east and have now invented our own GOD per say.
When in fact our GOD is a never changing GOD....the true GOD that is.
Watering down the truth and making christanity more palatable has weaken the church.
This nation is tossed to and fro by winds of doctrine as paul said. Thats why we need to get back to our roots.
Many of Gods promises are to us also. I believe the church has a accountability that we need to start acting on.
Not that we can stop what God has ordered but to make sure we have done everything we were called to do.
The Lord has shown great mercy and grace upon this land of ours and our sins are many. His kindness and patience are seen throughout the pages of time.... But there will be a reckoning... and who can stand.

I'm not as well versed with the Bible but your reasoning seems to be the way I understand it. The Bible clearly and concisely defines the problems of this world. Add the true miracle that they were written thousands of years ago. Paul alone can be proof of these forecasts. John describes a Laodicean church that seems to be an accurate representation of the present day prosperity motivated churches. Who would have known such revelations ? Reinforced by Jesus and the others in the Bible that spoke of the 2nd coming of Christ and God's 120 year warning prior to the flood. Paul's mention of the reprobate mind in Romans 1:28 is particularly disturbing. What is man without a properly functioning mind ? Man has many basic ways of destroying himself and drifting astray from the absolute light of God's Word.

" Jesus has come to fulfill all that the prophets spoke...not to start a new religion.
I agree that cahn looks like those we have marked as false and misleading. He is not the only saved hebrew i have listen to. There are many."

pottersclay
Baruch Korman is a born again student of both Old and New Testaments with higher education in Hebrew and Greek languages.
And his rich knowledge of the Old Testament and Hebrew cultural knowledge sure seems to give him an accurate edge on Biblical interpretations. He is very particular about interpretation. I would like to hear your opinion.

PS How does one link a member's name to address him on this forum ?

One benefit of a saved Hebrew teaching/dividing the Word(particularly the Old Testament) is his familiarity with colloquialism.

The National Geographic has been committed to evolution and anti-Christian nonsense for a long time. Some things are best ignored or boycotted.

I can attest to that! I tend to watch a lot of “educational shows“ but I’ve found they REALLY pound that evolution crap more and more even when it’s not really necessary. Recently I was watching “Brain Games” which is a fun nerdy show about testing your short term memory, etc with these fun cool visuals, but they kept repeating OVER and OVER before every new example how our brains have evolved over millions of years and how our hippocampus developed over time to reason and have empathy, Yada Yada yada…… I should’ve counted how many times the narrator said “evolution“ or “evolved”…. It was many times

People don't get it pottersclay. I must have lost my ability to be convincing. I explain similar to these 10 items and others listed on the video to old friends that respect my opinions and it seems to go in one ear and out the other. It as if they have the Romans 1:28 mind.

What is with the disconnect. What will it take to convince them that these prophetic events are being setup. They don't even seem to sense that the world is exponentially changing in so many negative ways in the past say 20 years. Maybe the impacts of climate change will create dyer situations that will bring them to their senses. If that is what it takes then bring it on Lord.

Every since Israel became a nation in 1948 this world has gone thru whirlwind changes with a rate increase around 2020 when ocean temperatures started increasing(or the glaciers that have certainly started to melt). Technology and the internet powers have converted this world into another realm.

Perhaps I have the benefit of a father that was a great student of Bible prophecy. He discussed Bible prophecy during those years until 1975 when I left home much to his sorrow unsaved. Saved recently at 64 years of age and the prophecy he mentioned has/is falling true rapidly. He(a computer salesman) mentioned that when the internet was dialed in it would be a powerful force in changing the world in many(negative)ways, specifically global and financial control. Israel becoming a country was biggest on his list.

Dad was king of hedonism till 1968 when he was saved. Fighter jet squadron commander in charge of 72 pilots, graduated top of class in engineering school, top college wrestler, carouser, wild man. He quit his job and must have spent 10 hours a day for 2 years studying the Bible. Bought a printing machine and started a Christian newspaper. He was a different man after that. He led many to the Lord. Sad he is not here today to see what is happening. Perhaps he has a view from above !
