I am a follower of his posts on Israel 365 News as he does a great job of showing us how we are in Biblical end times, and that Biblical prophecy is unfolding in our day. In this video Rabbi Wolicki takes us on a powerful journey through Psalm 83 and how it relates to the antisemitism that is so prevalent today.

Rabbi Wolicki is a frequent guest on Erick Stakelbeck’s, CBN, The Watchman and a regular contributor to Israel 365 News and The Jerusalem Post.

YOU WILL ENJOY HEARING MARY ELLEN BROOKS

Mary Ellen Brooks walked onto the stage of America’s Talent Arena looking nervous, quiet, and completely ordinary.
But the moment she began singing…
The entire atmosphere changed.
Her original worship ballad, “He Still Knows My Name,” became one of the most emotional moments ever seen on the show.
The audience fell silent. The judges were left speechless. And by the final chorus, tears were everywhere across the arena.
This wasn’t about fame. This wasn’t about perfection.

It was about a woman who believed God never forgot her. And maybe… He hasn’t forgotten you either.

HOW AMAZING IS PENTECOST

Jonathan Cahn reveals as only he can, what is behind the holiday of Shavuot, also called Pentecost, is an ancient, cosmic, and beautiful mystery, as large as the universal and as personal and specific as each of our hearts – a powerful, beautiful, and life-changing revelation – Shared on the Feast of Shavuot/Pentecost.

The importance of Israel in understanding God and His ways. All of Israel’s Feast Days were set up by God and are relevant to us today. Jonathan reveals how Pentecost at which time God gave us the gift of the Holy Spirit is linked (a type) to the marriage ceremony of Jewish couples.

J.D.VANCE SPEAKS AT THE RE-DEDICATE FESTIVAL

Vance observed in his remarks that Christianity has been inextricable with America since its founding, tracing its religious heritage and reliance upon God from Plymouth Colony Gov. William Bradford’s first Thanksgiving proclamation in 1623 through the Founding Fathers, the Civil War and the present day.

“In times of suffering and in times of triumph, millions of Americans continue to turn to prayer and their faith in God,” he said, but went on to warn of the ruinous consequences if that spiritual foundation erodes.

“If we do not see that God loves us, we have little reason and little inspiration to love one another. This love, which forms our morality, is the foundation of a peaceful and healthful society. That’s why it’s so encouraging to see a renewed sense of faith emerging among America’s young people,” he said.

“Defying predictions, the experts said that religion and faith were dying today. A wave of young Americans is returning to the pews, and we know that they’re looking for meaning, for authority, for direction, and of course for closeness with God. That should give all of us hope for our future together as Americans.”

“It certainly gives me hope as your vice president, because prayer is not merely something we do in times of crisis. It is a continual disposition of love toward God, and through that love toward one another, through our fellow citizens,” he said.

The current evidence of drought across the country and the coming El Nino indicate that Americans need to get into prayer for the nation NOW. My recent post published 13/05/2026, Biblical Prophesied End Times Famine is About to Hit the USA, demonstrates that unless God intervenes drought and famine are certain.

WIDESPREAD DECEPTION PROPHESIED (FALSE PROPHET) IN THE LAST DAYS PRIOR TO JESUS RETURN

In this video Nelson Walters shows how these three influential men, Pope Leo XIV, Bishop N.T. Wright (Anglican) and Tucker Carlson. USA are deceiving untold numbers of people about Israel and its place in God’s plans for the future – Jesus coming Millennial Kingdom (http://www.millennialkingdom.net).

As well, Pope Leo’s recent visit to the Mosque of Algiers–where he removed his shoes, stood in silent reflection before the mihrab, and expressed gratitude for being in “a place that represents the space proper to God“. This is not a harmless gesture of goodwill. It is a deeply consequential moment that raises serious questions about how the highest office in the Catholic Church is choosing to represent Christian truth in the public square. When the Pope describes the mosque as “a space proper to God,” the problem intensifies. He is identifying the Muslim God, Allah as equivalent to his God and yet according to the Koran, Allah has no son and there is no trinity. Moreover, Muslims can kill Christians if they will not convert to Islam.

Tucker Colson told the New York Times that Israel stopped peace with Iran. Whether you agree or not — you need to know where that idea comes from. Because it’s not politics. It’s a theology that is quietly erasing Israel from your Bible. Replacement theology — the doctrine that the Church has replaced Israel in God’s covenant — is no longer confined to seminary classrooms. It is reshaping how mainstream conservative voices talk about Israel, the Middle East, and end times prophecy. And Jesus warned us this was coming. Bible teacher Nelson Walters shows you:
1. What replacement theology teaches — and why it contradicts Israel Bible prophecy. 2. What church denominations teach Replacement Theology. 3. How Tucker Carlson’s statement reveals a prophetic pattern Jesus predicted in Matthew 24:4. What your Bible actually says about Israel’s role in end times prophecy. 5. What you should do right now to protect your biblical understanding.
This isn’t political commentary. This is prophecy unfolding in real time — and the stakes could not be higher for how you read your Bible.

CHINA ORIGINALLY MONOTHEISTIC

Posted on by

Shangdi (上帝, “Highest Deity,” “Lord on High,”) is the ancient Chinese concept of a singular supreme deity, often identified with Tian (天, “Heaven”). Scholars and missionaries (notably Jesuits like Matteo Ricci and later Protestants like James Legge) have highlighted its strong monotheistic characteristics, viewing it as evidence of an early form of monotheism or “original monotheism” in Chinese civilization, predating widespread polytheistic developments.

The Temple of Heaven (天坛, Tiāntán) is located in Beijing, China.

The Temple of Heaven was built specifically as an imperial sacrificial altar where the Emperor of China would worship Shangdi (上帝), meaning the Supreme God, Sovereign of Heaven, or God Above. It’s situated in the south-eastern part of central Beijing, just south of the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. The entire complex covers about 273 hectares (675 acres) and is now a major public park and UNESCO World Heritage Site. It’s one of Beijing’s most iconic attractions, famous for its beautiful Ming Dynasty architecture (built in the 15th century) where emperors performed annual rituals for good harvests.

Key Monotheistic Aspects

  • Supreme and Singular Authority: Shangdi was regarded as the ultimate, transcendent ruler of the universe — the highest power controlling natural phenomena (weather, harvests, floods, thunder), human affairs, battles, and the fate of kingdoms. He was not one god among many but the primordial or highest deity, with lesser gods, nature spirits, and ancestral spirits acting as subordinates or ministers carrying out his will. This hierarchical structure emphasizes his unique supremacy rather than equality with other deities.
  • Transcendence and Impersonality (with Personal Traits): Shangdi was seen as distant, inscrutable, and too exalted for direct ordinary worship — more transcendent than immanent. He operated through intermediaries. Yet classical texts describe him with anthropomorphic and personal qualities: he ordains events, responds to moral conduct, and is addressed in prayers. Attributes include being sovereign, eternal, all-knowing, ever-present, infinite, just, merciful, holy, faithful, and compassionate — traits paralleling those in Abrahamic monotheism.
  • No Idols or Images: A hallmark of its monotheistic character is the complete absence of physical representations. Shangdi was worshiped aniconically (without images). In the Temple of Heaven rituals, emperors used a simple spirit tablet inscribed with his name (e.g., “Huangtian Shangdi”) rather than statues or icons. This contrasts sharply with the idol-heavy practices in later Chinese folk religion and aligns with strict monotheistic prohibitions against graven images.
  • Exclusive Imperial Worship: Only the emperor (as “Son of Heaven”) could perform the grand sacrifices to Shangdi/Tian, typically annual rituals for good harvests or cosmic harmony. This exclusivity underscored his singular status as the ultimate divine sovereign, linking heaven’s mandate to righteous rule on earth. Ordinary people did not worship him directly.
  • Creator and Moral Order: Ancient texts portray Shangdi as the creator and sustainer of the universe, humanity, and moral order. He rewards virtue and punishes wrongdoing, granting or withdrawing the “Mandate of Heaven” from rulers based on their ethics. This establishes a unified divine will governing reality.

Historical Context

During the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600–1046 BCE), Shangdi (or simply Di) was the supreme deity. In the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BCE), the concept merged or evolved into the more abstract Tian, but retained its core supremacy. While Chinese religion overall became polytheistic and syncretic (incorporating ancestors, nature gods, Taoism, Buddhism, etc.), the classical Confucian and imperial traditions preserved Shangdi/Tian as the singular highest power. Some scholars argue this reflects an original monotheism that was later layered with other beliefs.

Christian missionaries saw strong parallels with the biblical God, leading to debates over using “Shangdi” as a translation for “God” in Chinese Bibles. Today, it is still used in some Chinese Christian contexts and as a general term for the monotheistic God.

In summary, Shangdi embodies monotheistic ideals through his unrivalled supremacy, transcendence, moral governance, and aniconic worship — even as the broader religious landscape included lesser spirits. This made him a focal point for understanding ancient China’s theological heritage.

Currently, the Chinese Communist state seeks unity, stability, and ideological coherence. Christianity disrupts all three — not through rebellion, but through allegiance to a higher authority. And yet the Chinese have in their history a supreme God whom their Emperor worshipped. This would have come down from Noah and his descendants, possibly Ham. Christians obey the law, contribute to society, and love their nation but acknowledge their creator God and His Son, Jesus. The fact that the Chinese once worshipped one God, a supreme being, must be a good starting point in evangelism.

Ancient Chinese characters (especially the oldest pictographic and oracle bone forms) have been analyzed by scholars connected to Answers in Genesis and similar creationist researchers as containing echoes of Genesis 1–11. These interpretations suggest the earliest Chinese retained memories of biblical events from the post-Flood era (after Babel), when their ancestors dispersed.

Here are some of the most commonly cited ones (drawn from AiG articles, Ethel Nelson’s work, and related studies, She co-authored “God’s Promise to the Chinese, The Discovery of Genesis“.

Create (造, zào): Composed of “mouth/speak” (口) + “walking/moving” (辶) + dust/clay (土). Interpreted as God speaking creation into being and forming man from dust, who then walks (paralleling Genesis 1–2 and God’s spoken word in creation).

Garden (園, yuán): Enclosure (口) + two persons (人) + mouth/breath (口) + dust/earth (土). Seen as the Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve (formed from dust and given breath) placed inside.

Boat/Ship (船, chuán): Vessel (舟) + eight (八) + people/mouths (口). Strongly linked to Noah’s Ark with exactly eight survivors (Noah, his wife, three sons, and their wives — Genesis 7:13; 1 Peter 3:20).

Flood: Often includes elements of “universal water” + eight + earth, recalling the global deluge.

Righteousness/Justice (義, yì): Lamb/sheep (羊) + “me/I” (我). Interpreted as righteousness coming through the sacrifice of a lamb on one’s behalf — pointing to the “Lamb of God” (Jesus) in Christian theology.

Good (好, hǎo): Woman (女) + son/child (子). Linked to the promise in Genesis 3:15 (the “seed” of the woman bringing goodness/redemption).

These are based on ancient forms (bronze ware and oracle bone inscriptions, ~4500–3500 years old), not modern simplified characters.

The growth of Christianity in China is not merely a religious statistic. It is a reminder that the human soul resists permanent enclosure. No surveillance system, censorship regime, or ideological campaign has yet succeeded in erasing the desire for transcendent truth.

THE IMPORTANCE OF PENTECOST

Posted on by

God is a genius. He wisely gave Israel a set of seven holy days to make tangible his goodness in providing for individuals, families and the entire nation. Passover commemorated the night God’s judgement passed over the homes of the Hebrews in Egypt, sparing them and setting their liberation in motion (Leviticus 23:5). Firstfruits and Pentecost celebrated the barley and wheat harvests, which provided the nation with their “daily bread” (Leviticus 23:9–22; Matthew 6:11).

Even more amazingly, God built his redemptive plan into the calendar. Passover pointed to the Passover lamb on the cross (1 Corinthians 5:7). Firstfruits pointed to the resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:20). Pentecost pointed to the Holy Spirit. God was never improvising — he was always on time.

Luke was a careful theologian and wordsmith. He recorded Jesus commanding the disciples “not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for the Father’s promise” (Acts 1:4). Then, in Acts 2:1 we read, “When the day of Pentecost had arrived…”. This is no incidental detail.

First fruits and Pentecost are inseparably tied. Jesus himself made clear he needed to be resurrected before the Spirit could be given (John 7:39) and that it was better that he was leaving earth, “because if I don’t go away the Counsellor will not come to you” (John 16:7). Peter thundered this truth home when he preached, “God has raised this Jesus; we are all witnesses of this. Therefore… he has poured out what you both see and hear” (Acts 2:32–33). They are a sequential, glorious package deal.

The thought of celebrating First fruits but not Pentecost makes about as much sense as celebrating the cross without the empty tomb. You need the whole story.

Imagine if the Church celebrated Pentecost with the same fervour as Christmas and Easter — gathering, praying, expectant for a fresh outpouring of the Spirit. Christmas and Easter have been incorporated into the wider cultural calendar — even those with little Christian faith know these days matter. But Pentecost? It barely registers, even in many churches.

Without the Spirit poured out at Pentecost, the Church has no power for the mission Jesus left us.

TRUMP HAS CALLED THE NATION TO PRAYER TO REDEDICATE AMERICA TO GOD

Posted on by

On Sunday, May 17, 2026 (Monday morning, May 18, for Australians), tens of thousands of Americans will gather on the National Mall in Washington D.C. for the first-ever rededication of the USA as one nation under God. Here’s what’s scheduled to take place and the Christian leaders headlining this historic occasion.

Johnson wrote in his open letter of invitation to the national gathering: “This is a unique moment for believers. For the first time in modern history, a U.S. president has called our nation to prayer — to humble ourselves and to rededicate America to God. “This will be the first time that Americans will gather together to rededicate the United States as One Nation Under God.

“Through worship, prayer, and storytelling, we will remember the people, sacrifices, and foundational moments in which God has shaped our history. By the end, I hope you will see the truth in Benjamin Franklin’s famous admonition: ‘that God governs in the affairs of men.’”

The speaker list features multiple well-known American Christians, from Jonathan Roumie (beloved by millions for his portrayal of Jesus in The Chosen), to evangelist Franklin Graham and Grammy-winning worship artist Chris Tomlin. Notably, the event bridges Protestant and Catholic traditions, with both Cardinal Timothy Dolan and Bishop Robert Barron participating alongside evangelical leaders.

According to Pastor Robert Jeffress — who is scheduled to speak at the event — Rededicate 250 could be the largest Christian gathering in 50 years.

Jeffress was referring back to Explo ‘72, a 1972 Campus Crusade for Christ conference attended by over 80,000 college and high school students in Dallas, at which the late evangelist Billy Graham preached. For context, Explo ’72 is widely regarded as one of the most significant Christian gatherings in American history, which some say marked the height of the Jesus Movement. This makes Rededicate 250’s potential scale all the more remarkable.

Event officials have written that the purpose of Rededicate 250 is to “gather in prayer, worship, and storytelling and to rededicate our country as One Nation Under God.”

THE CASE FOR A PREWRATH RAPTURE

Posted on by

In this expository study of Revelation 6, Baruch Korman presents the arguments for a PreWrath Rapture. Revelation 6 reveals that the seals represent persecution and the activity of the enemy, not divine judgment, whereas the seven trumpet and seven bowl judgements are clearly God’s judgements. Korman emphasizes the believer’s calling to endure and remain faithful during the tribulation, even great tribulation. God allows this time to refine His church. We need to trust in God’s redemptive plan in the last days.

Marvin (Marv) Rosenthal was the main populariser of the PreWrath Rapture. Formerly with Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry, he published the seminal book The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church in 1990 (Thomas Nelson), which brought the view to a wide audience. He also produced the periodical Zion’s Fire and founded Zion’s Hope. His son, David Rosenthal, continues promoting it through teachings and videos.

More recently, both Nelson Walters (in videos like those on the exact start of God’s wrath and the seal/trumpet/bowl sequence) and Baruch Korman (in his end-times teachings) emphasize the distinction between tribulation and God’s wrath. Korman, teaching from the Hebrew/Greek context, stresses that the Great Tribulation is persecution (not divine wrath), with the rapture occurring before the Day of the Lord judgments begin.

EVIDENCE GOD IS IN TOTAL CONTROL OF EVENTS IN HIS WORLD

Posted on by

Is there a dark conspiracy behind the latest attempt to assassinate President Trump? Was it the same conspiracy behind the attempt to kill him in Butler, Pennsylvania, and the murder of Charlie Kirk? Could it be about nothing less than the future of America? Jonathan Cahn opens it up.

Jonathan Cahn has been called the prophetic voice of his generation and is known for unlocking the deep mysteries and revelations of God’s Word. He leads Hope of the World, a worldwide ministry of outreach of God’s Word to all nations, and His love and compassion to the world’s most needy. The information he discloses in this video is incredible and shows how completely God is in control of all events unfolding in His world. You will be blown away by the evidence he reveals.

I have followed Jonathan Cahn since I met him in 2014, in Israel at breakfast in the Leonardo Hotel, Jerusalem. I was there for a Christian conference attended by 3000 people, half from China. Jonathan was vacationing with his family and was blown away when I told him about the number of Chinese Christians that had come to Jerusalem to pray for and bless the nation of Israel. He had no concept of what God was doing in China.
