Prophetic analysis of the Middle East peace accords
Israel, United Arab Emirates and Bahrain further solidified their political unity Tuesday by formalizing historic diplomatic agreements as brokered by the White House and hailed by President Trump as “the dawn of a new Middle East.” The pacts aligned the nations and deepened their opposition to Iran’s efforts of hegemony in the region. There are…
Read MorePolitical police narratives don’t match the truth
The political narrative is that police are routinely killing black people. But this is refuted by a comprehensive Harvard study of police data indicating that police are less likely to use lethal force against black civilians than with white suspects. The study of a 15-year period on police data regarding racial differences is contained in…
Read MoreThe prophecy of lawlessness
Law enforcement officers are under fire across the nation. Efforts to defund the police are taking place wherever there are Black Lives Matter and Antifa protests. Chicago continues its murderous crime wave. “Violent protests” continue in various large cities, but the problem is, they are not protests once they turn violent as the media fails…
Read MoreThe Farm Chronicles: Nickels and Dimes
About five miles from the farm was a very small village called Wayland. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, Wayland was a thriving community sporting a creamery, a basket factory, a general store, post office and train depot. Wayland also had two churches, a Welsh Congregational and a Baptist Church, later joining together into…
Read MoreFrom now until the election
From 1981 officially through 1996, I was a political media and messaging strategist for conservative and Christian candidates for office. Every Labor Day weekend, I took three days off. Went camping. Got away from people. Cleared my mind. Prayed. It was a time of reflection and introspect, aligning and realigning with the Lord. I took…
Read MoreIn this political season human trafficking rises
One of the evilest systems upon the face of the earth is the trafficking of humans, especially children. We see in the United States the horror of it all through the reporting surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein human trafficking ring in which many prominent politicians and wealthy businesspeople participate with impunity. Beneath that high-end is an…
Read MoreThe principalities and politics of revolution
A Princeton study aimed at showing that the vast majority of protests across America are peaceful actually confirmed that 96% of major urban areas experienced violence and rioting. The report concludes: “Peaceful protests are reported in over 2,400 distinct locations around the country. Violent demonstrations, meanwhile, have been limited to fewer than 220 locations —…
Read MoreThe Farm Chronicles: Closer than a brother
In a small farming community neighbors help neighbors. In fact, most everybody knows everybody. That’s the way it was when I was growing up. We were not divided by politics, nor by race or religion. The weather was no respecter of persons, as the Lord reminds us in Matthew 5:45, “He [God} makes His sun…
Read MoreJustifying Violence
This is probably one of those Daily Jots that you are not going to like. Please just stick with me before hitting the unsubscribe button. I want to talk to you about justifying violence. Conservatives, rightly so, strongly object to Democratic leaders encouraging protests knowing full well they will turn violent, then insincerely condemning the…
Read MoreAnother example of accusing others
It is a long-practiced socialist tactic of accusing others of exactly what the accuser is doing. Democrats ruling over major cities like Portland, OR, where violence, looting and killing continue on a daily basis are accusing President Trump of exciting violence. Yet, these very same democrats have been encouraging the protests, ordering police to stand…
