Godly Values In America

Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Jun 5, 2024

I believe The United States of America has been a blessed nation because it has a Godly base. The reason we are the wealthiest, most free, most secure, most envied nation on earth is that we were established as a nation under God, and God has kept His promise to bless us.

It’s a fascinating account that has some very relevant applications to America. Josiah’s grandfather, Manasseh, had been the most wicked king the nation of Judah ever ...read more

Gaslighting God

Contributed by Robert Walderman on Jan 9, 2024

This chapter can be a case of Gaslighting and false repentance by the people in an attempt to change the reality of their situation by minimizing their responsibility and blaming God. Some say it is a “Straw man” set up by the Prophet to be demolished by God’s answer in the next chapter.

Do The Jewish Festivals Reveal A Timeline For The Return Of Jesus?
