NICK VUJICIC IS STILL IMPACTING THE WORLD FOR CHRIST AND BRINGING GLORY TO GOD

Posted on by

Author and evangelist Nick Vujicic spoke with CBN’s Tré Goins-Phillips, delivering a bold message for America, urging the Western church to embrace the “basics” of the Gospel, prioritise discipleship, and embrace counselling for those suffering and struggling with sin. He urgently warned the “most crippling season” for the U.S. is impending, unless it turns back to God.

The nation needs to repent and return to God and His word, acknowledging that it is inerrant from Genesis to Revelation. Only then will it realise it is not practising church as Jesus intended, as described in the Book of Acts – house churches with disciples making more disciples.

ISRAEL ATTACKED IRAN

Posted on by

Israel launched airstrikes into Iran on Thursday evening. The Israeli defence minister said in a statement that they are “preemptive strikes.” More than 200 Israeli planes were involved in the initial attack, so it was a major event. Iran has threatened to retaliate in a significant way if Israel attacks it. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, Gen. Hossein Salami, is confirmed dead after Israel strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities. Iranian state television also confirmed that the deputy commander of Iran’s armed forces, Gen. Gholamali Rashid and nuclear scientist Fereydoun were killed.

In this video ‘Hannity’ panelists Aaron Cohen and Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., analyse what prompted the strike on Iran.

THE CHURCH HAS SO COMPROMISED WITH THE WORLD THAT IT NO LONGER PREACHES BIBLICAL TRUTH

Posted on by

George Barna, a leading expert in church and worldview trends, has weighed in on some of the biggest issues facing the Church, including the steady decrease in a biblical worldview and dwindling concern for spiritual formation, which results in “Christian invisibility” in our culture.

Bible Colleges and seminaries set young ministry leaders up for failure. “You get what you measure,” George Barna contended. “So, if you measure the wrong things, you’ll get the wrong outcomes … pastors measure how many people show up, how much money they raise, how many programs they offer, how many staff persons they hire, how much square footage they built out. Jesus didn’t die for any of that. “If we were to go back to the Bible, I think we’d recognise the local church, the institutional church, as we’ve created it, is man-made. It’s not in the Scriptures,” he said.

Barna says, “We need to go back and recognise that it starts with families; parents have the primary responsibility to raise their children to become spiritual champions. Local churches need to support parents in that endeavour. Our primary focus needs to be on children … and growing their biblical worldview. If we do that, we’ll be able to increase the 3 per cent of adults who are disciples in America today to a larger proportion.”

I would also suggest that the church return to the church as described in the Book of Acts. Francis Chan got it right when he walked away from his church of 5000 to establish house churches where everybody is trained to be disciples to preach the good news of the Gospel.

Barna warns the church is at a critical juncture, and the path to a thriving Christian community lies in returning to the core biblical principles, the empowerment of parents as spiritual leaders and the intentional discipling of the next generation. “All the other stuff is noise,” he said. “If we don’t do those things, we’re going to lose even more in this war … this is our moment, we’ve reached a time of Christian invisibility in our culture. What I’m seeing now is that we’re getting to this place where the typical American … will not have anyone in their circle of influence who has a biblical worldview. You’re not going to be influenced by God’s truth.

THE WAY OF BLESSING

Posted on by

Why should we speak good words to people? “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Proverbs 18:21. Also, God tells us to “Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.” Romans 12:14

From the very beginning, God blessed. In the opening verses of Genesis, we hear the voice of the Creator speaking light, life, and love into being. Then we read: ‘God blessed them…’ Genesis 1:28.

Before striving, there was blessing. Before mission, there was communion. Blessing is not an afterthought—it is the first word spoken over creation, covenant, and community.

Throughout Scripture, blessing flows not as a formula but as a way of life. Isaac blessed Jacob, Jacob blessed his sons, Moses blessed the tribes, David blessed the assembly, and Solomon blessed the nations gathered at the temple. The prophets cried out with blessing and promised more to come.

And then, one day, blessing walked among us.

Jesus… blessed children, the poor, the persecuted, the peacemakers. He blessed bread and fish. He blessed the hands of the humble. He lived as a blessing and gave Himself as the ultimate blessing – poured out at the cross, risen in glory.

And now, through His Spirit, through us, that blessing needs to continue.

ARE WE SEEING PRECURSORS TO THE END TIMES CELESTIAL SIGNS?

Posted on by

Are the celestial signs in Luke 21:25-26 and Revelation 6:12-14 increasing? Even Isaiah prophesied that when God judges the entire Earth, there will be celestial signs that cause earthly upheaval.

“And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” Luke 21:25-26

“When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.” Revelation 6:12-14

“For the windows of heaven are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble. The earth is utterly broken, the earth is split apart, the earth is violently shaken. The earth staggers like a drunken man;
it sways like a hut; its transgression lies heavy upon it, and it falls, and will not rise again.” Isaiah 23:18-20

In this video, Jason Peters, an expert, shares details on what is happening now with our magnetosphere, which protects the Earth from Solar flares. Even NASA has reported that its protection has diminished markedly in the last few years, particularly in 2023, and Solar flares are now devastatingly impacting Earth. What we are seeing is a precursor to the prophesied end-times celestial signs. He explains what we can expect to see coming to the world, when electrical grids fail, and increased earthquakes, tsunamis, geomagnetic storms, and cosmic rays adversely affect our health.

Aurora australis lights up the sky over southern Australia

One evidence for this increased solar flare activity and decreased magnetosphere is the recent appearance of auroras in Australia, the USA, Spain, and Mexico. These are caused by geomagnetic storms triggered by coronal mass ejections. “A coronal mass ejection is the literal ejection of material from the Sun out into space. This sends charged particles from the Sun towards Earth, causing geomagnetic storms that disrupt the Earth’s magnetic field.

THE CHURCH SHOULD NOT FEAR PERSECUTION

China is experiencing the world’s largest revival today. Several thousand Chinese come to Christ every day. Many feel that these revivals are happening in contrast to their background of being Buddhists, Animists, Taoists, or Confucianists. Still, a closer look shows that China has been following the God of the Bible since the beginning of their history, more than 5,000 years ago. Are these current revivals a sign that the people of China are returning to their true roots?

The truth came down from Noah and his family. Some modern Chinese Christian scholars or theologians suggest a connection to Shem, citing possible linguistic or cultural links between ancient Semitic and Chinese civilisations (e.g., similarities in ancient writing systems or flood narratives). Others favour Japheth, based on the broader geographic spread of his descendants.

MONTHLY PRAYER MEETINGS IN THE PENTAGON

Posted on by

Pete Hegseth is bringing prayer into the Pentagon. This week, the United States Defence Secretary (SECDEF) dumbfounded Christian-haters by announcing a monthly prayer meeting would be held in the Pentagon’s auditorium. Attendance at the prayer gatherings is voluntary.

Hegseth told those gathered that the task of protecting the nation first begins on bended knees, recognising the “providence of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.”

“There are so many things we do in this building and across this nation, with such great consequence, it’s almost unfathomable when I think about that task,” he added.

“To think it relies only on my strength would leave me completely incapable of addressing the issues of the day or those going forward. Knowing that there’s an author in heaven overseeing all of this who’s underwritten all of it for us on the cross gives me the strength to proceed,” Hegseth affirmed.

The SECDEF then prayed this prayer:

King Jesus, we come humbly before You seeking Your face, seeking Your grace in humble obedience to Your law and to Your Word. We come as sinners saved only by that grace, seeking Your providence in our lives and in our nation. Lord God, we ask for the wisdom to see what is right, and in each and every day and each and every circumstance, the courage to do what is right in obedience to Your will. It is in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ that we pray. And all God’s people said, ‘Amen’.

In an implied response to accusations that Hegseth was “violating” Thomas Jefferson’s assumed line between church and state, Franklin Graham took to X, thanking the SECDEF for not being ashamed of Jesus Christ.

In reply, Hegseth remarked, “It’s the least we can do, for Him and the country.” He then invited Graham to “join them for a service.”

SHOULD CHRISTIANS ACKNOWLEDGE THE PRACTICE OF ‘WELCOME TO COUNTRY’.

Posted on by

Reconciliation Australia acknowledges Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, and to Elders past and present. Incorporating Acknowledgement of Country and Welcome to Country into meetings, gatherings, and events shows respect by upholding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural protocols. Taking the time to acknowledge Country, or including a Welcome to Country at an event, reminds us that every day we live, work, and dream on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands. 

Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander Studies (AIATSIS), Deputy CEO and Chief Operating Officer Jude Barlow says, “Being welcomed to Country means that you are talking to your spiritual ancestors and you’re saying [to the spirits] just let this person come through. We trust that they’re not going to do any harm to this Country, and so do not harm them.”

Welcome to country is “about ensuring your spiritual safety. Because my ancestors… are still present in Country. They’re still with us. They’re in the animals. They’re in the trees.”

Barlow concludes, “I look to be welcomed so that I feel a sense that the spirits are okay with me being there.”

The rest of this post is taken from an article ‘Country’ is a Pagan Animist Concept, So Why the Christian Compromise? 26th May, 2025 by Dave Pellowe, founder of The Good Source.

Correctly and culturally understood, ‘Country’ is irrevocably tied to spiritism and animism. Yet, an acknowledgment of ‘Country’ is again planned for the Sydney Prayer Breakfast, a high-profile, purportedly Christian, inclusive networking event.

Choosing Between ‘Nice’ (Fearing Man) or Good (Fearing God)

We can’t be nice about the implicit religious claims of anything in a bottle labelled “Country”. That word, in cultural context, is a container of meaning which contradicts the teaching of Jesus Christ and the clear doctrines of Christian Scripture.

The tragedy which faithful, well formed Christians must contend with today is the silence of “nice” denominational leaders taken by unbelievers as the definition of Christian belief. Some liberal Christians with an obviously low view of Scripture even act as apologists for and embrace traditional Aboriginal religious rituals and occultism.

Be encouraged: I am getting reports of Christian schools and other organisations reading this teaching and research on “Country” and repenting of ever including it in their community. Every single one must do likewise urgently. (That research was updated this week with additional photographic evidence from three major museums as well as an SBS election article.)

There is a remnant that will not bow the knee! I have been invited to speak at the Albury Wodonga Prayer Breakfast in July and the National Prayer Breakfast in September. Praise God both of these events have boldly confirmed there will be no welcome to or acknowledgment of “Country”!

The choice is between “nice”, and good. In this instance, we cannot be both. Fear men, or fear God.

GOD WILL GIVE YOU A FUTURE AND A HOPE

Posted on by

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.” John 3:16-17

Step 1. You need to repent of your sin of rebellion against God and His commandments, accepting Jesus as your Saviour and Lord, acknowledging the enormity of His sacrifice on the cross.

Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” John 3:5

Step 2. You need to be baptised (evidence you have died to self and arisen a new person in Christ) and receive the Holy Spirit as your counsellor, teacher, helper and comforter; otherwise, you cannot live the Christian life.

“‘For I know the plans I have for you’, says the Lord. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.’”  Jeremiah 29:11

Step 3. Know that God has a plan for your life, but you must allow the Holy Spirit to guide your every step. Do not grieve Him or quench His work in your life.

“And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.” Ephesians 4:30

HAMAS MANIPULATED GAZA DEATH DATA AND MEDIA COVERAGE

Posted on by

A groundbreaking report released last month by two Australian academics reveals widespread manipulation in the casualty data disseminated by Hamas during the ongoing conflict in Gaza.

Their findings challenge widely accepted narratives and raise serious concerns about the use of disinformation – and the role of the legacy media – in modern warfare.

The paper, titled Hamas Casualty Reports are a Tangle of Technical Problems, published by the Henry Jackson Society and authored by Professor Lewi Stone (RMIT University) and Professor Gregory Rose (University of Wollongong), is based on extensive analysis of casualty lists released by the Hamas-controlled Ministry of Health (MoH) in Gaza between October 2023 and March 2025.

Contrary to Hamas’ repeated claims that 70% of casualties were women and children – a figure amplified by sympathetic media and international bodies – the report concludes that this figure is inflated and contradicted by Hamas’ own raw data.

“Empirical evidence shows Israeli military tried to limit Gazan civilian harm,” the authors conclude, highlighting Israeli efforts to issue over 12 million flyers, 800,000 voice messages, and 100,000 phone calls warning civilians to evacuate conflict zones.

The report also reveals major flaws in the verification and categorisation of casualties:

  • 15,070 deaths were initially reported as “unidentified,” later “verified” through online submissions, often with dubious supporting evidence.
  • Some reported deaths were found to include people still living.
  • Natural deaths, deaths from disease, and even Hamas misfire casualties were included without distinction from Israeli-caused deaths.
  • Thousands of names were removed or altered in subsequent lists without explanation.

These manipulations allowed the Hamas Ministry of Health to present a distorted picture of Israeli conduct and to accuse Israel of genocide — allegations that gained traction internationally, despite lacking statistical or documentary support.

The report highlights how foreign academics and media relied heavily on data provided by Hamas, especially in the early stages of the war. Projections from institutions like the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine overestimated Gazan deaths by as much as 440%. One controversial paper in The Lancet predicted up to 186,000 deaths from indirect causes, while Hamas’ own data showed just 38 malnutrition-related deaths by September 2024.

United Nations agencies like UN-OCHA initially echoed Hamas’ 70% figure for women and children casualties, only to later revise these numbers downward by nearly half – an implicit admission of prior error.

Importantly, while the IDF reported having killed some 20,000 Hamas and allied fighters, the Gaza-controlled Ministry of Health (MoH) listed none of its casualties as combatants. The result is a public dataset that treats all deaths as civilians, regardless of combat status, cause of death, or source of injury.

The report’s authors stress that, despite their technical sophistication, Hamas’ casualty datasets were weaponised as tools of strategic disinformation. Leveraging the cooperation of a willing international media, they exploited public trust in data to misrepresent Israel’s military operations and sway global opinion.

Free Palestine’: All about Slaughtering Jews

It’s a demonic chorus. Hell’s equivalent of a church hymn.

But the incantation has nothing to do with freeing Palestinians, and everything to do with slaughtering Jews. It’s not sung as a chant aimed at ending suffering. It’s sung as a shared, communal fantasy about igniting a second Jewish holocaust.

The pro-Palestinian mob would chant “gas the Jews” – indeed, they did outside the Opera House on October 9, 2023 – except that such honesty would dismantle who they’re pretending to be. They pretend to be on the side of the downtrodden. They pretend to be on the side of righteousness. “Free Palestine” serves only as a fig leaf to (barely) cover their bloodlust.
