My friend Shana Reif suffered from Cystic Fibrosis, a genetic disease that primarily affects the lungs and other organs. It causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in the airways, leading to repeated infections, inflammation, and progressive lung damage. In many cases, the disease can advance until the lungs can no longer do what God created them to dobring oxygen into the body and sustain life. Cystic Fibrosis is a horrible and incurable disease, and it was the disease Shana endured all her life. When she was born, her parents were told she would not live much past her twentieth birthday. But Shana lived to be thirty-two. I came to know Shana in high school, not long after I became a follower of Jesus. After high school, we became very close friends. She edited my Bible college papers, and I visited her often during her many hospital stays. I also visited her at home as she recovered from the latest infection. By 2003, her lungs had been so damaged by chronic infections that she was placed on the waiting list for new lungs. She received a double lung transplant in 2004, but even then, her suffering did not fully end. Her body remained fragile. Her fight continued. But Shana loved Jesus. Though she struggled deeply with her disease, she held onto the hope of the gospel. One of the last emails I received from her was signed with words from her favorite hymn: Great is Thy faithfulness. In 2007, Shana died from complications after a procedure to reopen a constricted airway. When someone you love suffers like that, the question How long? is not theoretical. How long will disease ravage bodies? How long will death take those we love? How long will Gods people suffer in a world still broken by sin? How long before Christ makes all things new? Revelation 6:911 brings us to that question. But here, the cry comes specifically from those who have been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they maintained. The Martyrs: The Cost of Their Witness (v. 9) There are three cycles of judgment in Revelation: the seals, the trumpets, and the bowls. These cycles do not unfold in strict linear successionseals, then trumpets, then bowlsbut recapitulate the same period of history with increasing intensity, like birth pains. For our purposes, I simply want you to notice one pattern that helps us understand what is happening in this passage. In each cyclethe seals, trumpets, and bowlsthe first four judgments affect the world in broad, visible ways, but the fifth shifts the focus. The fifth seal shows the saints crying out for justice (Rev. 6:911). The fifth trumpet shows judgment beginning to fall on the enemies of Godthose who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads (Rev. 9:112; especially 9:4). The fifth bowl shows judgment reaching the very throne of the beast, whose kingdom wages war against all who refuse to worship him (Rev. 16:1011; cf. Rev. 13:78, 15). This is why the first four seals show us the horsemen riding across the earth. But when the fifth seal is opened, the focus shifts from what is happening on earth to what heaven sees when Gods people suffer because of the word of God and the testimony they maintain. These martyrs are not beneath the altar because they were victims of history. They are there because they belonged to the Lamb and remained faithful to the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. Their witness cost them their lives. John is showing us what Jesus had already told His disciples: If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me (Matt. 16:24; NASB). The fifth seal reminds us that following Jesus is not merely a call to believe certain truths about Him; it is a call to bear faithful witness to those truths, even when obedience is costly. Polycarp is said to have been a disciple of the apostle John and later became the bishop of Smyrna. Smyrna, you may remember, was one of the seven churches Jesus addressed in Revelation. Jesus told that suffering church, Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life (Rev. 2:10). Years later, Polycarp was arrested and ordered to deny Christ. When pressed to renounce Jesus, he replied, Eighty and six years have I served Him, and He never did me any injury: how then can I blaspheme my King and my Saviour? Polycarps witness cost him his life, but heaven did not see his death as Rome did. Rome saw a criminal to be silenced. Heaven saw a faithful witness beneath the altar. And we do not have to go back to Polycarp to see this kind of witness. You may remember the twenty-one Coptic Christians who were taken by ISIS in Libya and led onto a beach in orange jumpsuits. They were ordinary men who refused to renounce their faith in Jesus. Their blood was shed on earth, but Revelation 6 reminds us that heaven did not miss a drop. The world saw men being led to execution. Heaven saw faithful witnesses beneath the altar. Since 2015, conservative estimates suggest that more than 50,000 Christians have been killed for faith-related reasons around the world. According to Open Doors 2026 World Watch List, North Korea remains the most dangerous country in the world to be a Christian, while Nigeria is the deadliest, accounting for 3,490 of the 4,849 Christians killed for their faith during the latest reporting period. The seals describe the birth pains that mark this present age. The first four seals show us a world marked by conquest, war, famine, and death. But when the fifth seal is opened, we are shown what heaven sees when Gods people suffer because of the word of God and the testimony they maintain. The Altar: The Cry Before God (v. 10) Notice that John not only tells us that these faithful Christ-followers suffered and died for their faith, but also tells us where he saw these Christians. They are under the altar. This is a crucial detail that you can only understand if you know something about the Old Testament tabernacle that God told Moses to build. Scripture tells us that the earthly tabernacle was a copy and shadow of the one in heaven (Heb. 8:4-5; Exod. 25-31; 35-40). So when John sees an altar in heaven, he is not seeing something new, but the heavenly reality to which Israels worship had always pointed. Within the tabernacle, there were two primary altars. The bronze altar stood in the courtyard, where sacrifices were offered. The altar of incense stood near the Most Holy Place, close to the ark of the covenant, which represented the throne of God. Both altars help us understand what John sees. The blood of the sacrifice was poured at the altars base, and the incense rising before the Lord symbolized the prayers of Gods people ascending into His presence. So when John sees the souls of the martyrs beneath the altar, he sees their lives as precious before God and their prayers as heard before His throne. In the earthly tabernacle, a veil stood between the priests and God's immediate presence. But in heaven, no curtain hides His throne from His redeemed people. The martyrs are not far from God. They are beneath the altar, before the throne, and in the presence of the Lord God Almighty. Now, picture what is happening before Johns eyes. Those who suffered the ultimate cost for following Jesus are not behind the altar, nor are they on top of the altar. These saints are under the altar, which tells us that they are closest to the throne. Also, the martyrs are not passive, but are actively pleading for vindication in Gods heavenly court. There is no magical language here, for their cries are raw and honest. There is no anger hurled before God, but cries of vindication in light of their understanding of who God is! Notice what these dear saints include in their prayer: O Sovereign Lord, holy and true... Now lets stop there for a moment. The ESV translates the word well asSovereign Lord.The Greek word used here is not the most common term for Lord,kyrios, butdespotēs, and this is the only time it appears in the entire book of Revelation. The word these martyred saints use conveys absolute ownership, supreme authority, and sovereign mastery. We get our English worddespotfrom this word, but whiledespotusually carries a negative meaning in English, that is not the case whendespotēs is used of God in the New Testament. When used of God, it emphasizes His complete authority over creation, His servants, history, judgment, and justice. This matters because these Christians are not merely crying out to God as sufferers, asking whether He cares. They are crying out to the One they know to be the Sovereign Master over all things. They are appealing to the One who has the authority to judge, avenge, vindicate, and bring history to its appointed end. They are not crying out in doubt. They are crying out in faith. They know He is able. They know He is holy. They know He is true. And they know that the Sovereign Lord will do what is right. Notice what the saints attribute to God next. Not only is He the Sovereign Master, but He is holy. These saints who have suffered much understand that their God is utterly set apart from all evil, corruption, compromise, and injustice. He is not like the kingdoms and the kings of this world. He is not indifferent to injustice and the bloodshed at the hands of the wicked. He is not morally conflicted. He is pure in all His judgments, righteous in all His ways, and completely opposed to everything wicked. He is holy and these saints know it! God is not only holy; He is also true. When these saints plead their case before the throne of God, they do so knowing that He is faithful to all He has promised. He does not forget. He does not make empty threats or hollow promises. What He has spoken, He will do (Num. 23:19; Josh. 21:45; Isa. 55:1011; Titus 1:2; Heb. 10:23). So when these martyrs cry, How long? they are not questioning Gods goodness, nor are they doubting that He will keep His word. They are asking when the God who is holy and true will act in perfect faithfulness to His word and to those He has promised never to forsake (Deut. 31:6; Heb. 13:5; Rev). The breaking of the fifth seal and the prayer of these suffering saints teach us an important truth about how we can and should pray. They pray from their understanding of who God truly is. This is the kind of thing we read about in Daniel 11:32: ...the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action. These saints know their God, and so they cry out, O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth? This prayer is not a contradiction of Jesus command to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matt. 5:44). It is a plea to the holy and true God to judge evil, vindicate His people, and set the world right. Their cry is rooted in the justice of God, knowing that His Word teaches that vengeance belongs to Him and not to His people (Deut. 32:35; Rom. 12:19). The martyrs beneath the altar are asking God to do what only God has the right and authority to do. The Throne: The Completion of Gods Purpose (v. 11) Now, notice what happens next. God responds, meaning He heard their prayer. But He does not respond as we might initially expect. The God who is sovereign, holy, and true responds by giving these Christians white robes as a sign of honor, purity, and vindication. These robes signify the righteousness that is theirs because of Jesus. When we see this great multitude again in Revelation 7, we are told, They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb (Rev. 7:14). These martyred saints represent every faithful witness who has been slain for the word of God and the testimony they upheldfrom the earliest martyrs of the church to our brothers and sisters suffering for Christ today. They are not treated as victims of random violence but as saints who belong to Christ and whose witness is precious before God. God responds by giving them white robes and telling them to do the thing we all hate: wait. Verse 11 says they were told to rest a little longer. That word, rest, matters. God is not dismissing their cry. He is not ignoring their suffering. He is calling them to rest in His presence, assured that perfect justice will come in His appointed time and in His sovereign way. Why must they wait? Because other Christians will suffer as they did, and they must wait until their number is complete. This means Gods justice is not delayed because He is indifferent. It is delayed because His purpose is not yet complete. There are still more witnesses to be gathered, more saints to be strengthened, and more glory to be given to Christ through the faithful endurance of His people. Gods answer to their prayer was to wait a little while longer. Conclusion My friend Shana frequently asked the same question you may have asked more than you can count: How long O Sovereign Lord, holy and true... It is the plea of the suffering. Shana was not a martyr, she was not killed by persecutors because of the word of God. She died on the operating table due to complications at the hands of surgeons who were trying to ease her suffering. Let me tell you what Shana did know. She knew what it meant to suffer in a world that is still waiting for Christ to make all things new. She knew what it meant to groan. She knew what it meant to wait. She knew what it meant to hope. I know that God used her life to encourage and strengthen the faith of others. Revelation 6:9-11 teaches us that we need not pretend the pain we experience is small. We need not pretend injustice does not matter. We need not pretend that death is natural. We can cry How long and do so in faith, not despair. We can cry it to the Sovereign Lord, who is holy and true. The Lamb who opens the fifth seal, is the Lamb who sees the suffering of His people. He honors the witness of His redeemed. He gives those who follow Him rest. The Lamb who died for you, is the Lord who will bring His purpose to completion for His glory and for your good! So, my dear brothers and sisters, we wait. But we do not wait as people forgotten by the One who sits upon the throne. We wait as those who belong to the Lamb. We wait as those whose lives are precious before the One on the throne. And we wait with confidence that the One who is sovereign, holy, and true will do exactly what He has promised. We can trust Him to do what is good and right because that is who He is.

In der vergangenen Woche reiste US-Präsident Donald Trump nach Peking, diese Woche folgte Russlands Präsident Wladimir Putin. Chinas Staatschef Xi Jinping empfing beide mit großer Inszenierung - aber doch schien vollkommen klar, dass hier nicht auf Augenhöhe verhandelt wird. Sowohl Trump als auch Putin kamen als Bittsteller. Und beide konnten kaum Zählbares mit nach Hause nehmen. Chinas Rolle in der Welt hat sich verändert. Russlands Krieg in der Ukraine und der Krieg der USA und Israels gegen Iran mit all seinen Folgen haben Russland und die USA geschwächt und China gestärkt. Gleichzeitig rüstet China seit vielen Jahren beständig auf, und das nicht ausschließlich mit Blick auf einen möglicherweise bevorstehenden Konflikt mit Taiwan. Wirtschaftlich ist China in nahezu allen Teilen der Welt aktiv, und über Bündnisse wie BRICS (Brasilien, Russland, Indien, China und Südafrika) präsentiert sich China als so etwas wie die Führungsmacht des Globalen Südens. Wie denkt die Großmacht, was für Visionen bestimmen das chinesische Handeln? Denkt China überhaupt in Allianzen? Und exportiert China sein eigenes autoritäres Gesellschaftsmodell?

I 1978 vandt Israel for første gang Eurovision, da Alphabeta introducerede verden til ørehængeren A-Ba-Ni-Bi. Året efter gentog bandet Milk and Honey den israelske triumf, da de vandt turneringen med Hallelujah - og siden da har de vundet Eurovision to gange yderligere. Men Israels deltagelse er ikke uden kontroverser og uro.

I reglerne for Eurovision - European Song Contest - står der helt tydeligt, at der ikke må indgå politisk indhold. Det har sådan set aldrig været meningen, at det politiske skulle være med i konkurrencen, men det har alligevel sneget sig ind. Nu er der ballade igen, da en række lande har fravalgt at deltage i showet i protest mod Israels opførsel over for sine naboer. Dette afsnit af Kampen om historien handler om de politiske og historiske kampe, som har præget showet siden begyndelsen, og vi rejser spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt noget nogensinde er apolitisk, eller om vi, når et budskab kaldes for apolitisk, bare mener, at magten i samfundet er enig med budskabet.

Så har det blivit dags för Eurovision song contest igen. Felicia ska representera Sverige efter sin vinst i Melodifestivalen men i år har flera länder bojkottat tävlingen på grund av att Israel tillåts vara med. Genom åren har arrangörerna hävdat att tävlingen inte är politisk, men de senaste åren har mycket handlat om Israels medverkan i tävlingen. I år så markerar fem länder mot landets deltagande genom att inte delta; Spanien, Nederländerna, Island, Irland och Slovenien kommer helt enkelt inte vara med. Vad innebär det att flera länder bojkottar? Vad händer om Israel vinner och kan Felicia missa finalen? Gäst: Tobbe Ek, Aftonbladets Eurovisionexpert. Programledare och producent: Jenny Ågren.

Die Biennale in Venedig wird in diesem Jahr von politischen Kontroversen rund um die Teilnahme Russlands und Israels überschattet – Debatten über Boykotte, Proteste und den Rücktritt der Jury bestimmten den Auftakt der Kunstschau. Dennoch sei die Kunst weiterhin präsent, sagt Monopol-Chefredakteurin Elke Buhr, die selbst vor Ort ist, im Gespräch mit SWR KULTUR: „Die Kunst ist da und die Kunst kann auch nicht zerstört werden, selbst nicht durch so eine Politisierung.“ Besonders viel Aufmerksamkeit zog am Eröffnungstag der österreichische Pavillon mit der Performance-Künstlerin Florentina Holzinger auf sich, deren spektakuläre Inszenierung laut Buhr „eine tolle Metapher“ für das Überleben in einer bröckelnden Welt sei. Auch der deutsche Pavillon mit Arbeiten von Tsung Thieu und Henrike Naumann überzeugte durch seine Auseinandersetzung mit deutscher Geschichte und Migration. Über die Beiträge aus Russland und Israel urteilte Buhr dagegen kritisch: „Man merkt eben, dass in solchen Situationen offensichtlich gute Kunst irgendwie nicht gelingt.“

Pastor Alexander shares a Mother’s Day message about an obscure mother named Rizpah. Because King Saul had broken Israels covenant in slaying the Gibeonites, God brought a famine to the land. To break the famine the Gibeonites requested the sons of Saul be hung. When her two sons were slain, Rizpah stood her ground, staying with the bodies of her two sons, keeping the birds and beasts away from devouring their bodies. As a result of her devotion and determination, her sons ultimately received a royal burial and her story is recorded in Scripture as an example of the depth of a mother’s love.

Sverigedemokraternas utrikespolitiska talesperson om folkrätt och bistånd och om vilken utrikespolitik SD vill driva som regeringsparti. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Trots att utrikespolitik inte ingår i Tidöavtalet så har Sverigedemokraterna fått stort genomslag i regeringens utrikespolitik under mandatperioden, enligt Aron Emilsson.”Vi har ju inte minst förhandlat fram en historisk omläggning av bistånds- och utvecklingspolitiken i fyrpartikrets, där Sverigedemokraterna har varit högst delaktiga och gjort ett ordentligt fotavtryck. Även budgetsamarbetet är ju fullskaligt, så utrikesförvaltning och andra budgetposter som rör det internationella samarbetet har ju också förankrats hos oss”, säger Aron Emilsson.Aron Emilsson säger att han tycker att utrikesminister Maria Malmer Stenergard (M) har gjort ett bra jobb i det stora hela, och på frågan hur han som Sverigedemokraternas utrikespolitiska talesperson och ordförande i riksdagens utrikesutskott skulle ställa sig till att själv bli utrikesminister efter valet svarar han:”Då har jag en beredskap för att axla ett sånt uppdrag, om jag får frågan. Vi är långt därifrån nu. Vi ska vinna ett val först och ha regeringsförhandlingar om innehållet i politiken också. Men jag är inte främmande för det”, säger Aron Emilsson.Vilken skulle du säga att skillnaden blir i den svenska utrikespolitiken om Sverigedemokraterna blir ett regeringsparti istället för ett samarbetsparti?”Den viktigaste skillnaden är att vi vill se en samlad doktrin där vi i ännu högre utsträckning fokuserar på att stärka säkerheten och motståndskraften i Nordeuropa och Östersjöområdet. Det finns inte möjlighet att i tillräckligt hög grad göra detta inom EU. Inom NATO finns all möjlighet att också ha fördjupade regionala samarbeten. Där ser vi en konkret utveckling. ””Folkrätten inte komplett”USA och Israels krig mot Iran är inne på sin tredje månad, världsekonomin är i gungning och oljepriserna stiger. Inget slut på krisen är i sikte. Vad anser Aron Emilsson om USA:s krigföring och strategier i Iran?”Till att börja med tror jag att någon form av militär intervention i Iran var ofrånkomlig mot bakgrund av den humanitära dimensionen, att vi har en islamistisk regim som har mördat uppåt 40 000–50 000 av sina medborgare, och kanske fler, ofta på ett bestialiskt sätt. Då kan inte omvärlden stå vid sidan av och bara titta på. Där är folkrätten inte komplett, så någon typ av ingripande hade behövts. Men vi är i ett läge nu där jag menar att det saknas ett tydligt mål, det saknas en plan för ett avslut. Det här gör att också allt mer i omvärlden börjar bli irriterade över att Hormuzsundet är stängt och det påverkar vår tillgång till energi och energipriser”, säger Aron Emilsson.USA:s och Israels militära anfall mot Iran, bryter det mot folkrätten? ”Sannolikt gör det det genom att man inte har försökt att få till en resolution genom FN:s säkerhetsråd för att göra ett ingripande, till exempel. Men å andra sidan vet man att det hade varit omöjligt, för i säkerhetsrådet sitter Ryssland och har vetorätt. Ryssland är allierad med Iran. Så det hade inte kunnat genomföras. Så det är lite av ett moment 22. Och något var man kanske tvungen att göra.”Du brukar ju säga att Sverige tjänar på den här regelbaserade världsordningen, att det är bra för små länder som Sverige med regler som reglerar vad militärt starkare länder kan göra. Är inte folkrätten en grundbult i den svenska utrikespolitiken? ”Jo, det är det och det kommer det fortsatt att vara. Men som jag sa så tror jag att den är inte komplett idag. Folkrätten måste kompletteras och det internationella samfundet måste samlas kring vad är det som inte räcker till idag? Därför att vi är ju blockerade att kunna genomföra något så länge Ryssland sitter i säkerhetsrådet och har vetorätt”, säger Aron Emilsson.Vad är det som behöver tillföras menar du i folkrätten? ”En tydlig humanitär dimension till exempel. Att det finns en klausul om att omvärlden kan gripa in, och inte ställas inför rätta för att man t .ex. går in för att skydda en civilbefolkning som massakreras av sin egen regim” Kan man säga att USA :s och Israels krig handlar om det? Den humanitära dimensionen, att rädda en civilbefolkning undan tyranni? ”Det har åtminstone varit en av målsättningarna man har presenterat i inledningen av kriget och kanske en av de största förhoppningarna som exiliranier världen runt ändå uttrycker på gator och torg. Sen så har vi som sagt inte sett att det målet har uppnåtts till fullo. Ett regimskifte har ju inte skett och demokratisering hoppas vi för framtiden naturligtvis”, säger Aron Emilsson. Öppnar för samtal med talibanernaSverigedemokraterna har, enligt Emilsson, haft ”tydligt fotavtryck” i omläggningen av svenskt bistånd, där bistånd nu bland annat används för att förmå länder att ta emot sina medborgare som Sverige vill avvisa. Exempelvis har regeringen skrivit ett avtal med Somalia där Somalias regering får biståndspengar för ett projekt nära den somaliska premiärministern. Regeringen ska tillsammans med EU-kommissionen även hålla samtal med talibanregimen i Afghanistan för att göra utvisningar dit möjliga. Oppositionen menar att det vore att legitimera talibanerna. Sverige erkänner inte den islamistiska regimen och har inga formella diplomatiska kontakter med dem. Tycker Aron Emilsson att det vore bra om Sverige hade diplomatiska kontakter med talibanregimen? ”Helst inte, och så få som bara möjligt. Men vi har ju haft konsulära ärenden och vi har haft ett behov att också få återbäring på ett bistånd som ges. Kan vi kombinera det så är det nödvändigt naturligtvis”, säger Aron Emilsson.

Israels Existenzrecht zu leugnen, war bislang von der Meinungsfreiheit gedeckt. Doch das soll sich ändern. Hessens Justizminister Christian Heinz (CDU) verteidigt die Bundesratsinitiative und sagt: Bei manchen Menschen reiche Aufklärung nicht aus. Grunwald, Maria www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

In today's lesson, the Apostle Paul will present the nation Israel with a choice, a moment, when they must choose or reject the gospel message of Jesus Christ.  Paul is telling the Jews what the resurrection of Jesus meant to them.  It was an opportunity for salvation.   This is the good news of the gospel message of Christ's death, burial, and resurrection.  The best news this world has ever heard came from a graveyard just outside Jerusalem: “He is not here … he is risen” (Matthew 28:6). The gospel is good news. The bad news is that we are sinners.  Sinners by birth, sinners by nature, sinners by choice, sinners by practice, and sinners under condemnation. All of us, without the Lord Jesus Christ, are in debt to God, defiled by sin, and sin has dominion over us.  That is the bad news about sin. So, what is the good news that obliterates the bad news?  The Good news is that Jesus died for our sins. Jesus died because of our sins, and for our sins. It was our sins that were the nails that held Him to the cross. Our hard hearts were the hammers that drove those nails into His quivering palms and feet. He died for our sin. When Jesus said on the cross, “It is finished” (John 19:30), that literally means “it is paid in full.” Jesus paid it all. The sin debt is blotted out by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus also deals with the defilement of sin. It is not enough to be pardoned from our sins, for there is still that defilement, that sentence of death in our body.  Jesus, by His sacrifice, not only pays our sin debt, but Jesus also deals with our sin defilement.  And then, by His resurrection, Jesus conquers death, and sin no longer has dominion over us, and we will have eternal life with Jesus in Heaven. Click on the link below to hear a message on the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. If you will believe it, and receive it, then you will be saved. There is no other way that you can be saved apart from the gospel.   This is a live recording of The Master's Class Bible Study at LifeChange Church Wichita, KS. Amen.

USA's og Israels angreb på Iran skyldtes, officielt, i hvert fald, at Iran har beriget uran med henblik på at udvikle atomvåben. Om det er sandt, vil historien vise. Sikkert er det dog, at Det Internationale Atomenergiagentur nu advarer om, at de seneste års geopolitiske usikkerhed også betyder frygt for et nyt atomvåbenkapløb. The Doomsday Clock, som Einstein og Oppenheimer var med til at udvikle og som skulle vise, hvor tæt vi er på dommedag, står nu på 85 sekunder i midnat. Det er det tætteste vi har været på den ultimative katastrofe nogensinde. Angsten for atomkrig fylder ikke ret meget længere; måske skyldtes det, at vi er længere væk fra de gange atombomber faktisk blev brugt i krig? Eller måske skyldtes det den underlige abstrakte fatalisme, som indhyller teknologien, fordi formålet ikke er brugen, men derimod selve forestillingen om brugen. Udsyn spørger Rens van Munster, seniorforsker ved DIIS, om det er rigtigt, at fred kun sikres af forestillingen om garanteret gensidig destruktion? Vært: Kaspar Colling Nielsen.

Im ersten Teil unseres Programms geht es wie immer um aktuelle Ereignisse. Wir beginnen mit einem Gespräch über den Jahresbericht von Amnesty International, in dem die Regierungschefs Israels, Russlands und der USA scharf kritisiert werden. Ihnen wird die Missachtung von Menschenrechten vorgeworfen. Anschließend diskutieren wir über die Energiesituation in China vor dem Hintergrund der weltweiten Energiekrise, die durch den Krieg im Iran ausgelöst wurde. Es scheint, dass China in einer deutlich besseren Situation ist als andere Länder. Unser Wissenschaftsteil ist einer Studie gewidmet, die zu dem Ergebnis kam, dass der Einsatz von künstlicher Intelligenz für einfache kognitive Aufgaben die intellektuellen Fähigkeiten einer Person bereits nach 10 Minuten beeinträchtigen kann. Und zum Schluss unseres ersten Teils sprechen wir darüber, wie eine Flut von KI-generierten Bildern und Memes, die Donald Trump als kulturelle Ikone zeigen, zu einem Markenzeichen seiner Online-Präsenz und seiner politischen Strategie geworden ist. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Word Order (Part 3): Subordinate Clauses. Jedes Jahr findet in einer kleinen Gemeinde in Norddeutschland das größte Metal-Festival der Welt statt. Vor oder während des Festivals kommt es regelmäßig zu starken Regenfällen. Einmal musste es deshalb sogar fast abgesagt werden. Doch dieses Jahr soll das „Wacken Open Air" dem Schlamm trotzen. Eine im März durchgeführte Befragung zur Einstufung der Freundlichkeit und der Höflichkeit der Länder kam zu dem Schluss, dass Deutsche für höflich, aber nicht für herzlich gehalten werden. Wir gehen auf Nummer sicher und diskutieren, ob Studien dieser Art überhaupt etwas wert sind. Auf Nummer sicher gehen ist auch die Redewendung dieser Woche.

Kritik an der Politik Israels gehört zu den schwierigsten Bereichen der deutschen Außenpolitik. „Es ist ein Dilemma“, meint Markus Lanz dazu. Auf der einen Seite besteht die moralische Verpflichtung, dem Volk Israels aufgrund der deutschen Geschichte beizustehen. Auf der anderen Seite stehen die Werte des Universalismus und das Eintreten für das Völkerrecht. Wie viel Kritik ist daher nötig und möglich? Richard David Precht fragt sich außerdem: „Warum sind wir heute nicht in der Lage, die Existenz und das Existenzrecht Palästinas anzuerkennen?“ Markus Lanz' Fazit zum Schluss lautet: „Es muss möglich sein, die Netanjahu-Regierung zu kritisieren und gleichzeitig bereit zu sein, jederzeit für die Unversehrtheit von Jüdinnen und Juden hier in Deutschland einzutreten.“

We live in a day when worship is often treated casuallybut Scripture makes it clear that God does not take worship lightly. And yet, many of us rarely stop to consider what is actually taking place in heaven right now what true worship really looks like before the throne of God. Last week, we were given a glimpse into that throne room, where everything centers on the One who sits upon the thronesurrounded by splendor, power, and unshakable sovereignty. But as Johns vision continues, our attention now shifts from the throne itself to the worship that surrounds it. After the Lord delivered Israel from the clutches of Pharaoh by parting the Red Sea, Moses and the people sang a song of praise. At the center of that song is this question: Who is like you, O LORD, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders? (Exod. 15:11). It is here that we are reminded why we existnot for ourselves, but for God, whose holiness sets Him apart from all else. Scripture repeatedly shows us what happens when that holiness is not regarded. Nadab and Abihu approached God in worship on their own termsand they were consumed (Lev. 10:12). Uzzah reached out his hand to steady the arkand he was struck down (2 Sam. 6:67). These are not isolated incidents. They are warnings. Worship that disregards the holiness of God is not merely deficientit is dangerous. For as the Lord has said, You shall be holy, for I am holy (Lev. 11:44; cf. 1 Pet. 1:16). And it is precisely this holinessthe holiness that cannot be ignored, redefined, or approached on our termsthat fills the throne room of heaven in Revelation 4, where unceasing worship rises before the One who is holy, holy, holy. The worship we see in Revelation 4 is not casual, and it is not optionalit is the only right response to who God is. So if Revelation 4 shows us what true worship looks like in heaven, then the question we must ask is this:Why is God so worthy of that kind of worship? We Worship the LORD Because There is No One Like Him (v. 6a) Revelation 4 shows us that the experience of Gods presence is not rooted in what we feel, nor is it produced by the latest worship songit is grounded in the truth of who God has revealed Himself to be in His Word. Do you remember what I said about the sea of glass before the throne of God? The sea represents chaos and opposition to Gods purposes, and it is from the sea that the beast comes. Yet here, before the throne, the sea is stilled, reminding us that what threatens creation elsewhere is powerless in His presence. In the presence of the One on the throne is where the redeemed find shalom (peace). What John sees in Revelation 4 is not only a display of powerit is a revelation of who God is. He is the Lord Almighty who rules over all things. He is a covenant-keeping God who keeps His promises. And He is a worship-worthy God before whom all of heaven bows down. And what is heavens response? Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power He is worthynot because of what He gives, but because of who He is. There is only one other place in Revelation where the sea of glass is referenced, and it appears in Revelation 15the fourth of the seven heavenly throne-room scenes in Johns apocalypse. There, John describes the same sea of glass, but with an added detail: And I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fireand also those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass with harps of God in their hands (v. 2). At the Red Sea, Gods presence stood between His people and their enemiesbringing light to one and judgment to the other (Exod. 14:1920). In Revelation, that same reality is intensified as the sea itself is mingled with fire (Rev. 15:2)symbolically pointing us back to Exodus 14, where God prevented Egypt from pursuing Israel (Exod. 14:2425). After allowing Pharaoh and his army to begin crossing the parted sea, He then consumed the enemies of God by bringing the waters of the Red Sea upon them (Exod. 14:2628). This connection is not incidental. The redeemed stand beside the sea with harps in their hands and sing what John calls the song of Moses and the song of the Lamb (v. 3). Just as Israel stood on the far side of the Red Sea and sang of their deliverance, so now the people of God stand victorious and sing once moreonly this time, their deliverance is final. And just as the plagues of Egypt preceded Israels redemption, so here the song is sung on the threshold of judgment, just before the seven bowls of wrath are poured outjudgments that unmistakably echo the plagues that fell upon Egypt. For now, lets focus on a single verse from the song Israel sang after crossing the Red Sea: Who is like you, O LORD, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders? (Exod. 15:11). In Revelation 15:34, a similar song is taken up and directed to the Lamb: Great and amazing are your deeds, O Lord God the Almighty! Just and true are your ways, O King of the nations! Who will not fear, O Lord, and glorify your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship you, for your righteous acts have been revealed. What began as a song of deliverance at the Red Sea becomes, in Revelation, a song of final redemption before the throneand at the center of both songs is the same unchanging truth: there is no one like Him. We Worship the LORD Because He is the Creator of All (vv. 6b-7) We are now introduced to four living creatures whose praise echoes that of the seraphim inIsaiah6, who declare of the One on the throne: Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory (Isa. 6:3). Like the seraphim, these creatures have six wings, but unlike them, they are described as being full of eyes in front and behind. These eyes symbolize unceasing awarenessnothing escapes their sight as they live in continual service before their Creator. At the same time, each creature is distinct, representing a different realm of creation and reflecting the goodness of the One who made all things. There are four creatures because they represent the fullness of creation, yet each highlights a distinct category of created life. The creature like a lion represents the wild animalsstrength, majesty, and power. The creature like an ox represents domesticated animalsservice, endurance, and strength under authority. The creature with the face of a man represents humanityintelligence, reason, and the image of God. The creature like an eagle in flight represents the birds of the airswiftness and dominion in the skies. Together, these four living creatures represent the strongest, wisest, most powerful, and most majestic forms of created lifeand all of them are oriented toward the worship of their Creator. Some scholars have also noted a possible connection between these four living creatures and the way Israel was arranged in the wilderness. InNumbers2, the twelve tribes were divided into four groups and positioned around the tabernacle, with the presence of God at the center. Later Jewish tradition suggests that each group bore a distinct imagesuch as a lion, an ox, a man, and an eagleimages that closely resemble the creatures described here. If this connection is valid, it adds another layer of meaning: the living creatures would not only represent the fullness of creation, but also reflect the people of God gathered in ordered worship around His presence. In that sense, they may point to humanity as it was always meant to bea community centered on God and devoted entirely to His glory. Whether these creatures are the cherubim described elsewhere in Scripture or a distinct class of heavenly beings, the point remains clear: they represent all of created life, and they perform the very function that all of creation was designed to fulfillwhich is worship. And like the seraphim, they never cease to say: Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come! (v. 8). We Worship the LORD Because He is Perfectly Holy (v. 8) The declaration of the four living creatures is not that He is lovethough He most certainly is. Nor do they declare that He is just, though everything around the throne testifies to His perfect justice. They do not highlight any of His other attributes. Instead, they declare the one attribute that lies at the very core of all that He isHis holiness. And they declare it to the highest degree. He is not merely holy, nor even holy, holy. Noour God is: Holy, holy, holy! This is the only attribute of God raised to the third degree in all of Scripture. But what does it mean that God is holy? To be holy is to be set apart and separate from all that is sinful, impure, or morally imperfect. As it relates to God, there is nothing like Him in all of creation, and there is nothing in Him that is flawed, corrupt, or deficient. Gods holiness is the beauty of all that He is. Stephen Charnock rightly said, Holiness is the beauty of all Gods attributes. Brothers and sisters, it is Gods holiness that makes Him gloriousit is what makes His justice just, His mercy merciful, and His power pure. This is why the worship of God is both serious and dangerous. As Michael Horton argues in his bookIn the Face of God, the danger is not in drawing near to Godthe danger is in doing so on our own terms. Nadab and Abihu approached God on their own termsand they were consumed (Lev. 10:13). Uzzah reached out his hand to steady the Ark, assuming his hand was cleaner than the dirtand he was struck down (2 Sam. 6:67). Ananias and Sapphira were more concerned with their image than Gods gloryand they too fell dead (Acts 5:111). Why? Because the holiness of God cannot be approached casually, on our own terms, or treated as common. And, just in case you are tempted to think that these examples are extreme and ought not be taken too seriously, consider the way Jesus taught us to pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Jesus did not say to recite this prayer (though that is okay), but to pray like this. We are to begin with something like: Our Father in heaven, hallowed by your name. That first petition is not one request among manyit is the foundation of them all, just as holiness is for the character of the Lord God Almighty! Every other request modeled for us in our Lords prayer flows from it and serves it: Your kingdom come for the hallowing of your name. Your will be done for the hallowing of your name. Give us this day our daily bread for the hallowing of your name. Forgive us as we forgive others for the hallowing of your name. Lead us not into temptation for the hallowing of your name. Deliver us from evil... for the hallowing of your name. Do you see it? We exist for the renown of Gods holy name in every area and part of our lives because He is holy, holy, holy! This is exactly what we see in Revelation 4. Heaven is not centered on man but on God. He is the Creator, and we are the creature. He reigns from heaven, and we are on earth. He is eternally sufficient, and we are utterly dependent upon Him. All that we dohow we live, how we pray, how we worshipis to be shaped and motivated by one great purpose: that Gods name would be hallowed! As His Word reminds us, For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be glory forever. Amen (Rom. 11:36). Only when God becomes the center of your universe will you begin to see your life rightly. And only then will you experience the kind of joy and satisfaction you were created for. At the center of that reality is the question sung in victorious celebration by Moses and the rest of Israel: Who is like you O Lord... majestic in holiness? (Exod. 15:11) We Worship the LORD Because He Alone is Worthy (vv. 9-11) Notice the response of the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders. They fall down before Him who is seated on the throne. Their posture shows us the proper response to Gods holinessnot pride, but surrender. The twenty-four elders lay down their crowns because they recognize that whatever authority, honor, or reward they possess ultimately belongs to the One on the throne. In response to the declaration that our unchanging God is Holy, holy, holy, the elders proclaim: Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created. Everything that exists does so because God wills it. That means your life is not random, nor did it come by chance. You were created by Him and for Himand the only right response is to lay down whatever you are holding onto and give Him the glory He deserves. Listenif you approach God on your terms, you will never experience Him as you were created to. Your way of worship will always lead you to your idols and away from the living God. But when you see Him for who He truly isholy, holy, holyyou will do what heaven does: you will bow, you will surrender, and you will worship. Heaven is not confused about who it is that sits on the throne. Heaven is not distracted by lesser glories. Heaven is not divided by that which does not last. All of heaven is fixed on one reality that outweighs everything else infinitely more: God is holy, and He is worthy of it all! One day, you will join this scene that we are given in Revelation 4. One day, you will stand before the One who sits on the throne. The only question is this: Will you bow before Him now in worship, or will you bow before Him then in judgment? If you really want to experience God, if you really want to live your life for that which will last and which matters, then be determined in your heart to do this: Turn from lesser things by giving God what heaven already declaresglory, honor, and all that you are. Why? Because there is no one like Him. Because He is the Creator. Because He is holy. And because He alone is worthy.

If you're lining up for Record Store Day 2026, this episode focuses on the one name that matters most: Zev Feldman, known as The Jazz Detective. Best known for his first-release live recordings of Bill Evans on Resonance and Elemental, Feldman has already delivered 14 Evans RSD titles, with a 15th arriving April 18.For Record Store Day 2026, he goes further than ever with 11 new jazz releases (including the Evans) across Resonance, Elemental, and Time Traveler Recordings, the label he co founded to bring back rare and hard to find 1970s jazz albums from the Muse catalog. This is not filler for collectors. It is a serious expansion of what Record Store Day can deliver.Join Eric Pye and Mitch Anderson as they break down the full slate, the continued demand for the Bill Evans RSD series, and the reality of tracking down and restoring lost recordings. At the center is Feldman's latest discovery, a deep archive from legendary Chicago club owner Joe Segal, now driving an ongoing series of never before heard live albums, with five debuting for RSD 2026. If you care about jazz, vinyl, and making smart choices before the lines form, this conversation gives you a real advantage.RESONANCE RECORDS• Joe Henderson  – Consonance: Live at the Jazz Showcase  3-LP set featuring saxophone titan Joe Henderson and his quartet with pianist Joanne Brackeen, bassist Steve Rodby and drummer Danny Spencer captured in February of 1978.

Trotz der Eskalation im Iran durch die Luftangriffe der USA und Israels sind bisher keine größeren grenzüberschreitenden Fluchtbewegungen zu verzeichnen. Während die Asylzahlen in Europa weiter sinken, steigt die Zahl der Binnenvertriebenen in der Region deutlich an.

US-Präsident Trump fordert von NATO-Partnern Beteiligung bei der Sicherung der Straße von Hormus, Israels andauernde Angriffe auf den Libanon gefährden Friedensverhandlungen zwischen Iran und USA, Umstrittener Chinabesuch der taiwanesischen Oppositionsführerin, Russlands Oberstes Gericht stuft Menschenrechtsorganisation "Memorial" als extremistisch ein, Unsicherer Schutzstatus für russische Kriegsdienstverweigerer in Deutschland, Weitere Meldungen im Überblick, Kunsthochschule Weißensee feiert ihr 80-jähriges Bestehen, Trauer um Schauspieler Mario Adorf, Das Wetter Hinweis: Der Beitrag zu Mario Adorf darf aus rechtlichen Gründen nicht auf tagesschau.de gezeigt werden.

En vild vecka går mot sitt slut och Trump är mer urspårad än någonsin. Under påsken har han hotat om att utplåna Iran som civilisation, snackat om att förgöra sin fiende ståendes bredvid påskharen och ordnat en skör vapenvila som fått till en tillfällig öppning av Hormuzsundet. Ni vet, samma sund som var öppet innan kriget inleddes. Vi diskuterar även Israels fortsatta brutala angrepp mot Libanon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Das russische Fernsehen berichtete am 8. April ausgiebig, wie sehr der Angriff der USA und Israels auf den Iran Europa gespalten hat. Im Kanal Rossija 1 machte man sich lustig über den Besuch von Keir Starmer in Saudi-Arabien. Der britische Ministerpräsident, der im eigenen Land eine geringe Popularität hat, versuche, sich als Friedensstifter im NahenWeiterlesen

“Sicherheitshalber” ist der Podcast zur sicherheitspolitischen Lage in Deutschland, Europa und der Welt. In Folge 106 diskutieren Thomas Wiegold, Ulrike Franke, Frank Sauer und Carlo Masala über den Krieg der USA und Israels gegen Iran. Kann Europa sich da raushalten? Sollte Europa sich da raushalten? Wie ist dieser Krieg - und wie seine Effekte - einzuschätzen, und was sind europäische und deutsche Interessen? Im zweiten Teil sprechen die vier Podcaster dann (endlich!) mit dem allseits bekannten und beliebten Ralf Raths. Es geht um … Panzer. Was ist überhaupt ein Panzer? Warum gibt es Panzer? Gibt es bald keine Panzer mehr, weil “Drohnen” das Gefechtsfeld beherrschen und alle Panzer kaputtmachen? Wird der Panzer der Zukunft, so es ihn denn gibt, anders aussehen - und wenn ja, wie? Sitzen da überhaupt noch Menschen drin? Um all das - und mehr - geht es in diesem Gespräch. Abschließend dann wie immer der “Sicherheitshinweis”, der kurze Fingerzeig auf aktuelle, sicherheitspolitisch einschlägige Themen und Entwicklungen - diesmal mit humanoiden Robotern und Exoskeletten in der Ukraine, vereitelten Anschlägen in Paris, einer Strategie für die neue Reserve in Deutschland und Aufregung um eine (übersehene?) Meldepflicht im Wehrdienstmodernierungsgesetz.

First up, I sit down with educator and author Allison Butler to talk about her latest book: The Judgment of Gender: How Women are Centered and Silenced in Pop Culture. Allison dissects this seeming contradiction of both centering and silencing women. We dive into some history to orient us in the present, consider the intersections of womanhood, the women in service to patriarchy, and more. Next up, Dr. Shir Hever comes back on the show this time to give us a perspective on the war on Iran that you wont likely hear, even in alternative and independent media. Shir prompts us to consider what the actual goals of the war are through understanding modern warfare, the US/Israeli relationship, and the paradoxical stability of totalitarianism staring at us from this current apocalyptic war. Allison T. Butler is Senior Lecturer and Associate Chair in the Department of Communication at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. She is the Vice President of the Media Freedom Foundation and the author of The Judgment of Gender: How Women are Centered and Silenced in Pop Culture, published by The Censored Press. Dr. Shir Hever is a scholar of Israels occupation, apartheid and genocide, born in Israel and now living in Germany. He is the managing director of the Alliance for Justice between Israelis and Palestinians and his latest book is The Privatization of Israeli Security. The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy. The post Project Censored – April 3, 2026 appeared first on KPFA.

Israels Parlament, die Knesset, stimmt für die Wiedereinführung der Todesstrafe. Künftig sollen palästinensische Terroristen zum Tode verurteilt werden. Für jüdische Täter gilt die Verschärfung nicht. Was es damit genau auf sich hat, ob das nicht allen Grundsätzen der Gleichheit vor der Justiz widerspricht und ob das israelische Höchstgericht das Vorhaben noch kippen könnte, erklärt Maria Sterkl. Sie ist Korrespondentin in Israel für DER STANDARD.

Leichter als bisher können israelische Militärgerichte die Todesstrafe für palästinensische Häftlinge verhängen. Rechtsextremisten feiern diesen Schritt. Und: Wegen des Iran-Kriegs wird in vielen Ländern Energie knapp, das Leben wird eingeschränkt. Stephanie Rohde
