2,500 Faith Leaders Sign Letter Asking President to Uphold Religious Freedom

The last problem any candidate needs just months out from a tough presidential campaign season is to find him or herself embroiled in an epic war with people
of faith.
But in the first two months of 2012, this is exactly what President Barack Obama is facing. As the days progress, the rhetoric against his administration’s contraceptive mandate — particularly among religious leaders and communities — continues to intensify. On Monday, evangelical pastors joined Roman Catholic clergy in an effort to rail against the policy
During the National Religious Broadcasters convention, an annual event that focuses on faith and media, Family Research Council President Tony Perkins spoke about the mandate. Perkins, among others, objects to the Obama administration’s mandate that all employers — including religious institutions, non-profits and hospitals — cover contraception...more…
Prolife Prophecy

Moses’ last message told the Israelites that God’s word was ”not just idle words for you–they are your life. By them you will live long in the land ”. (Deut 32:47) God’s word? The difference between life or death? A single two-sentence prophecy was, for one early church.
It was AD 66. Ha-Mered Ha-Gadol. The Great Revolt. It was a Sabbath, in fact, and Caesarea’s Jews were on their way to synagogue. Relationships between Jew and Greek in Caesarea had been long troubled, and on this Sabbath, the Greeks, itching for a fight, had sent one of their number ahead. Jews arriving for synagogue were greeted by birds being sacrificed at the entrance to the sanctuary on an upended earthenware pot that served as a makeshift altar. It was sabbath, and now their sanctuary was defiled. Let’s just say they weren’t happy...more…

Heb.4:17 – Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
The Spirit uses the name Ephraim, the second son of Joseph and one of the tribes in the Northern Kingdom, to refer to the ten tribes in the Northern Kingdom usually called Israel. The Lord says that these ten tribes are joined to their idols so let them have what they want. These tribes worshiped all kinds of idols and were enamored by their own strength. They even resorted to worshiping Baal. It was a deep time of spiritual apostasy.
But there are many prophetic looking glasses in Old Testament narratives such as this. God’s people were joined to idols, which can also be translated “married to idols”. Idolatry was rampant and when God’s people become married to idols it affects every single aspect of their spiritual walk. In fact, in many ways, it is such a sin that it causes a breach between the believer and His God. But God is relentless and He strongly convicts His people and commands them to repent...more…
The Dual Prophecies of Iran (Part 2)
www.bibleprophecyblog.com
Welcome to part two of this study regarding Iran in Bible prophecy. Part one, called “Why Iran’s Absent from Psalm 83,” lodged logical explanations as to why Iran is not part of the Psalm 83 Arab–Israeli war. Part two provides logistical reasons by demonstrating that Iran seemingly faces a double jeopardy in the days to come. This entire study is taken from the commentary of Revelation Road, Hope Beyond the Horizon.
Even though Iran appears to be absent from the climactic, concluding Arab-Israeli War, they are not excluded from two other significant end-time’s events. The one most widely taught among eschatologists today is described in Ezekiel 38, and is commonly called the Gog of Magog invasion of Israel. In Ezekiel’s prophecy modern day Iran is represented by ancient Persia, and is clearly identified militarily “with a shield and a helmet,” in Russia’s coalition...more…
Putin Pledges 400 ICBMs for Russia in 10 Years

Russia’s armed forces will receive over 400 modern intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), more than 100 military spacecraft and over 2,300 new tanks within the next 10 years, Prime Minister and presidential candidate Vladimir Putin said.
Earlier media voiced fears that by 2020, Russia’ ICBM arsenal could reduce by more than half as over 400 missiles would go beyond their maximum service life without timely replacement.
“Within the next decade, the armed forces will receive more than 400 modern ground- and sea-based intercontinental ballistic missiles, eight ballistic missile submarines, about 20 general purpose attack submarines, over 50 surface ships and some 100 military-purpose spacecraft,” Putin wrote in a new article for the Rossiiskaya Gazeta government daily...more…
