MINDLESS: HOW THE EDUCATION SYSTEM IS INDOCTRINATING CHILDREN AND DESTROYING OUR CIVILISATION

Posted on by

This book Mindless: How the Education System is Indoctrinating Children and Destroying Our Civilisation by d’Abrera, Bella (Wyborn Press, 2026) has 270 pages devoted to showing how the rot has set into Western education (looking primarily at Australia, America and England), d’Abrera asks, ‘What is to be done?’ She looks at how America is leading the way here, with Australia and the UK lagging well behind.

She notes how Washington, under Trump, “turned off the money tap”. For example, it “began freezing billions of dollars in federal research grants in response to what it described as ‘institutional antisemitism’ and entrenched ideological bias on campus.” (p. 273)

She offers various examples of this, and then writes: Whatever one thinks of Trump, the freeze has exposed a reality. Supposedly, sovereign institutions have long been propped up by federal support, and Washington can hold them to account if it chooses…

Ultimately, it appears that ‘what is to be done?’ cannot be left to the universities themselves. The solution, therefore, lies outside the system. And in this respect, America is leading the way. There, individuals with dedication, energy, and awareness of how precarious things have become, are establishing new universities. Their aim is simple: to restore the university to its true purpose and ensure that they are not beholden to the state. (pp. 274-275)

Hillsdale College in Michigan is one such example of this, as is the University of Austin in Texas. Things are tougher in this regard in England, but Australia has had some success in creating new educational institutions, including Campion College in Sydney, Alphacrucis University College in Melbourne, and St John Henry Newman College in Queensland.

And the corruption in schools, and not just in higher education, can also be challenged. Thus, the rise and rise of things like homeschooling, private schooling, Christian education, charter schools, and so on. School choice, as in the voucher system, is an important way forward.

She says this about the situation in America: Down in Texas and Arizona, school choice legislation has expanded dramatically, making it possible for parents to send their children to charter or private schools with state-backed vouchers. Vouchers are essentially public grant money which gives families the genuine freedom to decide where their children are educated, and to take them out of the ideologically captured public system.

Vouchers don’t just give parents freedom to choose, they open up an immense range of choices. Parents can send their children to one of seventy-five Chesterton schools, whose curriculum is everything that today’s state system is not. Children are immersed in Homer, Dante and Shakespeare. Where government schools strip away the arts, Chesterton insists every child must paint, sing, and perform. There is no climate change anxiety, no gender confusion, and no racial tensions. (pp. 280-281)

She goes on to discuss the importance of parents in schooling: To reclaim education, they must first reclaim their role as parents. It is mothers and fathers who bring children into the world, who give them their moral and spiritual formation, not the state. They must start to recognise the ideological dangers that the system is posing to their offspring and become far less trusting. It is time for parents to stop outsourcing authority and for the family, that building block of society, to reclaim the child. This means rejecting the Rousseau-inspired deception that only experts can raise children, which has permeated Western culture, and which has to some extent, given parents licence to abnegate responsibility. (p. 283)

d’Abrera closes her book this way: Where we go from here will decide whether the Western mind survives. If children continued to be subjected to mass conditioning while being denied the chance to flourish in truth, beauty, reason, and reality, then Western Civilisation itself will not endure. The closing of the Western mind is not merely an educational crisis, but a civilisational one. We are teetering on the edge, but it is not too late. Our survival won’t depend on the rising generation now rebelling against the system, whose minds remain open enough to chart a course out of the ideological doldrums into which we have drifted. (p. 285)

Another great book is by Stefanik, Elise, Poisoned Ivies: The Inside Account of the Academic and Moral Rot at America’s Elite Universities (Threshold Editions, 2026)

It is wonderful to see efforts to turn our world back to God however God’s Word declares that we are already in the end times prior to Jesus return to restore righteousness. Sadly, we know that God allows Satan to do His utmost with the Antichrist and the False Prophet having 3 1/2 years to rule this world. However, during this time God pours out His wrath upon the Earth with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements. We are called to persevere and not deny His Word during this time but to fulfill all that He has called us to do.

COME CREATOR SPIRIT, FOR RENEWAL OF THE CHURCH

Posted on by

In 1964, noted Scottish Presbyterian theologian, Dr Thomas F. Torrance, addressed the World Alliance of Reformed Churches on the theme of Come Creator Spirit, for the Renewal of Worship and Witness. In that address, he said:

If our worship and witness are conspicuous for their lack of Holy Spirit, it is surely because we Protestants, whatever we may confess in our creeds, have diminished belief in the transcendent power and utter Godness of the Creator Spirit, and have become engrossed in our own subjectivities and the development of our own inherent potentialities.

Hence the first thing that must happen to us is a glad subjection to the lordly freedom and majesty of God the Holy Spirit, and a humble readiness for miraculous divine acts that transcend all human possibilities and break through the limitations of anything we can conceive. Come, Creator Spirit, is a prayer of open surrender to the absolute creativity of God. 

That is a staggering challenge from an eminent Reformed theologian of a past era. I believe the challenge is even more relevant for today. It may cause us to reflect on our experience of the Holy Spirit at this time.

The Book of Acts describes the outcome of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I follow it briefly.

A Church of Power

The disciples were promised power when the Holy Spirit would come on them.

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8

Pentecost was the realisation of this promise. When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 

“Suddenly, a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.  They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.” Acts 2:1-4

The Day of Pentecost records the outpouring of the Spirit in power. Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones has said, “It is really almost incredible that people would go on saying that what happened at Pentecost was once and for all.”

In fact, the progress of the mission of the church showed this empowerment in action.

Acts 3:1-10 relates the healing of the lame man at the Temple gate. Of course, this is not a once-off event. The miraculous occurs again and again in the narrative of Acts.

Dr Craig S. Keener examines the claims for miracles in his magisterial two-volume Miracles. He draws this conclusion at the end of volume one:

Many healing claims involve blindness, inability to walk, and even raising from death. Other claims involve sudden changes in nature after prayers; despite some debatable instances, some other cases are fairly clearly extraordinary. It seems to me that to dispute such phenomena have sometimes occurred is not really possible for open-minded people.

What Keener asserts and what is reported in Acts is to be the continuing experience of the Christian Church.

A Church Unified

Here is what was said of the earliest believers after Pentecost.

“So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart.” Acts 2:46 (NKJ)

The term “of one accord” (omothumadon) occurs multiple times in Acts (1:14; 2:1;46; 4:24; 5:121; 7:57; 8:6; 12:20; 15:25; 18:12; 19:29). Such frequency highlights the importance of the unity the early believers experienced.

We struggle for unity today. Often, we let secondary issues restrict whom we fellowship and work with. However, our nation is in a spiritual crisis like never before. We need those who are authentic Christians believing in the inspiration and authority of Scripture, coupled with absolute faith in Jesus as the only way of salvation, to come together and work for the good of the kingdom of God.

A Church at Prayer

Faced with a crisis, the early believers were praying and then, when they heard the report of Peter and John, they broke out in this striking prayer:

On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them.  You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David: “‘Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed one.” Acts 4:24-26

 Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. “They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen. Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.” Acts 4:28-30

We will see the true church operating in Holy Spirit power in the days ahead as persecution of Christians standing on their faith increases. The church will be like it was in the Book of Acts and it is already in places like China, Iran and many countries in Africa where persecution of Christians is prevalent. They will be praying prayers like the one quoted above.

SATAN AND HIS DEMONS ARE BEHIND WHAT IS MANIFESTING ON EARTH

Rabbi Jonathan Cahn delivers a powerful message connecting current events to biblical prophecy. From rising tensions involving Iran and Israel to the recent assassination attempt on President Trump, this message explores what Scripture says about the times we are living in. Jonathan reveals what is really behind what is happening in the world and he gives two powerful examples of his own experience with the demonic powers in India and Cuba that impacted thousands. What he reveals about the spirits behind Charlie Kirk’s assassination and Kamala Harris rise to power are mind blowing. This is a word you don’t want to miss.

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

EGYPT IN BIBLICAL END TIMES PROPHECY

Posted on by

Egypt has opposed the State of Israel since its rebirth in 1948. Yet time and time again, Israel has been able to push back against the Egyptian army. In the late 1970s, Israel agreed to return the Sinai to Egypt in exchange for peace. Currently, it appears that this agreement may be coming to an end. Egypt has positioned 40,000 troops in the Sinai, which is a direct violation of the peace agreement.

As Israel continues to fight Iran and its proxies, Egypt is weighing its options. Egypt knows its military is over twice the size of Israel’s military. And with most of Israel’s air force often flying over the skies of Iran hours from home, Egypt’s odds have never looked better.

Could this be the time that Egypt finally makes another move to attack Israel? Ben Hilton gives you the facts that you need to know.

Daniel 11:40-43 (particularly verses 40 onward) is the primary Old Testament passage describing an end-times conflict involving Egypt (the “king of the South”) moving against the region, including Israel (the “Glorious Land”).

“At the time of the end, the king of the south (Egypt) shall attack him, but the king of the north shall rush upon him like a whirlwind, with chariots and horsemen, and with many ships. And he shall come into countries and shall overflow and pass through. He shall come into the glorious land. And tens of thousands shall fall, but these shall be delivered out of his hand: Edom and Moab and the main part of the Ammonites. He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. He shall become ruler of the treasures of gold and of silver, and all the precious things of Egypt, and the Libyans and the Cushites shall follow in his train. But news from the east and the north shall alarm him, and he shall go out with great fury to destroy and devote many to destruction. And he shall pitch his palatial tents between the sea and the glorious holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, with none to help him.” Daniel 11:40-45

In many prophetic interpretations, the “king of the South” refers to a power or coalition centered in or led by Egypt (historically the Ptolemaic kingdom south of Israel), which initiates conflict at the “time of the end.” The “king of the North” (often linked to the Antichrist or a northern power) then responds decisively, overrunning Egypt while also entering Israel. This fits into the broader sequence leading toward the final battles, including Armageddon.

CAN WE KNOW THE YEAR OF JESUS RETURN?

Posted on by

Nelson Walters and his team make a bold prediction for the year of the rapture, 2030 and he uses three prophetic witnesses to make his case. Most of you know that I know Nelson and in fact I went to the USA to meet up with him. Moreover, I have posted many of his YouTube videos on this site. I find his presentation convincing otherwise I would not post it here.

Can we know the year of Jesus’ return? While Jesus said no one knows the day or hour, a compelling “bible prophecy” in Daniel Chapter 9 contains a “hidden timeline” that points to a specific period. Daniel 9’s 70 Weeks prophecy is the most studied passage in the Bible — and almost everyone has misread it. Hidden inside the gap between the 69th and 70th Week is a precise mathematical timeline that points to a specific year. The year is 2030 just four years in the future, which indicates we are already three years into the last seven years hence we are close to the Antichrist taking his seat

2,500 years ago, two prophets confirmed it independently. In this video, Bible teacher Nelson Walters reveals the hidden gap in Daniel’s 70 Weeks and shows how Leviticus 26’s four-fold judgment (7×70×4 = 1,960 years) calculates the exact duration of the desolations declared in Daniel 9:26. Combined with the Apostle Peter’s interpretation of a day equalling 1,000 years applied to Hosea 5:15–6:2, these two independent witnesses arrive at the same answer — and prove the 70th Week is still future, dismantling the Preterist timeline permanently.

What you’ll discover: • Why thinking like an ancient Hebrew changes everything about the 70 Weeks • The 40-year sign confirmed by the Talmud (Yoma 39b) that anchors the timeline to 30 A.D. • How Leviticus 26’s four-fold judgment encodes 1,960 years of desolation • Why Hosea 5:15–6:2 is the second prophetic witness that confirms Daniel’s calculation • The biblical legal principle of two witnesses — and why both Daniel and Hosea satisfy it • Why the gap between the 69th and 70th Week is a mathematical necessity, not a theological inventionThis is not speculation. This is the weight of two independent witnesses, confirmed by biblical law.

Rabbi Pesach Wolicki is the Executive Director of Israel 365 Action and the author of Verses for Zion and Cup of Salvation. 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

Posted on by

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

Posted on by

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

Posted on by

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.
