(This podcast was previously published on September 12, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    These Old Testament examples teach us to follow God.  They allow us to see the work of God on behalf of HIS children.  And these examples show us God is always giving information in the problems of life to HIS children.   I find these examples to be strengthening and faith building.   The children of Israel had to fight in many battles, and so do we today.  For to enter in to that land promised by God, we will have many who stand up against us, even people in our own church groups.   But we will learn that the Word from God is all that matters.   Proverbs 21:30-31  There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD. The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.   All that matters is, "Did God tell me to do this thing?"  

Day 1 of our story Today's story takes place in Caesarea - Acts 10:1-8. Cornelius, a Roman soldier, a Centurion, lives there. (Pastor shares pictures of this city, still visible today!) Cornelius was one who worshiped the God of Israel but was not a full convert. He and his family were devout and God-fearing.  Then he receives a vision of an angel. The angel tells him to bring a man from Joppa named Simon known as Peter. We see Cornelius respond immediately to what the angel told him to do.    Day 2  Story moves location to Joppa where Cornelius' servant and one of his soldiers are headed - Acts 10:9-23a. Meanwhile, Peter goes up on the roof of the house he is at and goes into a trance and sees the heavens open and a sheet with all kinds of 4-footed animals, reptiles and birds. (Unclean animals according to the Torah) Then a voice tells him to eat them, but Peter says, I've never eaten anything impure or unclean.  I've obeyed the Torah!  The response from heaven, three times was, "Do not call anything pure that God has made clean." And the sheet was taken back into heaven. While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the vision, the men Cornelius sent found him. The Spirit tells Peter to go downstairs to the men that were sent.  They tell Peter about the vision Cornelius had seen and Peter invites them in.   Day 3 Now our story goes on the road- Act 10:23b.  Peter and some witness head, with Cornelius' servant and soldier, to Caesarea.   Day 4 They arrive in Caesarea - Acts 10:24-48. (Pastor shares more pics of the area) Cornelius has a crowd of people gathered at his home to hear Peter when he arrives. Peter knows he's on God's mission: "You are aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with or visit a Gentile. But God has shown me I should not call anyone impure or unclean." Cornelius retells his vision and says now they are in the presence of God to hear everything Peter has to tell them. Peter responds that he now realizes how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation those who know the Good News of Jesus Christ, Lord of ALL. He recounts the Gospel story of Jesus, He tells of the Savior's Good News and all that believe in Him receive forgiveness of sins through His name. Then suddenly the Holy Spirit fell on all of them, including the Gentiles. They were baptized in Jesus' name and ask Peter to say for a few more days.   What do we learn from this story?   Then + Now God's Agenda - God sets the agenda for His people, for individuals and for human history. God is fulfilling the New Covenant - That the day would come when the NATIONS would come to God. These are new covenant times! God Shows No Partiality - it is easy to be in our own groups and only see people like us and avoid people who don't fit our mold. But Jesus died for ALL. We are called to reach the world - therefore no partiality - God wants them all. Jesus is LORD - He is the New Covenant. Will we acknowledge His Lordship? He is the judge of the living and the dead. He is the Messiah, the Savior of the Nations, the Anointed Son of God who gave His life for all, rose, ascended and is coming back. Spirit Guided Life - God is not in a box, He sets the agenda, not us. Everything needs to be the way He deems it!   Pastor closes with the questions: Are you listening to God's Agenda for your life? Do Jesus and the Scriptures inform your daily living and actions? Do you sense and heed the Holy Spirit's promptings?   This week's READING ASSIGNMENT: Acts chapter 10 - 11.    Now What?

On December 2, the OneBC party released its documentary Making a Killing: Reconciliation, genocide and plunder in Canada. Since then, the writer and producer of the film Tim Thielmann, has been fired along with two other senior staff. MLA Dallas Brodie has herself been removed as interim party leader. But the documentary lives on, with Dallas Brodie voicing Thielmann's script and interviewing all the guests. We talked about the film with Sean Carleton, professor of history and Indigenous studies at the University of Manitoba in December.

In a city that rarely pauses, we often carry the weight of our schedules, anxieties, and expectations without a break. This week's message from guest speaker Zelda Cheung titled, “Be Still,” invites us to discover what it means to stop striving and remember who God is in the middle of our everyday lives. Drawing from Psalm 46:10, we will look at how God's unshakable presence speaks into our chaos, our decisions, and our deepest fears. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, searching for peace, or simply curious about faith, we invite you to worship with us and explore how God calls us to be still and know Him.

Recorded at the PSE-CEPR Policy Forum, Paris School of Economics.Tariffs move trade around, but so does economic power. When one economy dominates, other countries fall into step with it. They trade with the dominant economy, and also with each other. Alberto Martin (Barcelona School of Economics, CEPR) is one of a team that has tracked the influence of hegemons, large dominant economies, on trade from the start of the 19th century. In  our latest VoxTalk he tells Tim Phillips about how they used treaties (not necessarily about trade) as a proxy for alignment, and built a database of 77,000 of them signed between 1800 and 2020 to test their theory.Hegemons sign a disproportionate share of these international agreements. After treaty-signing, trade links become stronger. But treaty-signing has fallen sharply over the past 15 years, as much as it did during the two world wars. If we are heading towards a multipolar world, might what will the absence of a global hegemony do to trade?The research behind this episode:Broner, Fernando, Alberto Martin, Josefin Meyer, and Christoph Trebesch. 2025. "Hegemonic Globalization." CEPR Discussion Paper 20339 (gated).To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, and Alberto Martin. 2025. "How superpowers shape trade." VoxTalks Economics (podcast).About the guestAlberto Martin is a Senior Researcher at the Center for Research in International Economics (CREI), an Adjunct Professor at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, a Research Professor at the Barcelona School of Economics, and a Research Fellow at the Centre for Economic Policy Research, where he directs the International Macroeconomics and Finance programme. His research spans macroeconomics, finance, and international economics, including asset bubbles, credit cycles, sovereign debt, and the political economy of trade.Research cited in this episodeGlobal Treaty Database. The dataset at the heart of the paper, assembled by the authors from the United Nations Treaty Collection, the League of Nations archive, and country-specific historical sources. It records roughly 77,000 international agreements signed between 1800 and 2020, most of them bilateral, sorted into economic and non-economic categories such as trade, taxation, migration, borders, and military cooperation.Hegemonic stability. The idea, introduced by Charles Kindleberger in 1973, that an open and stable world economy needs a single dominant power to underwrite it. This paper builds a formal model of the mechanism Kindleberger described, and asks what happens to openness when dominance is contested.Alignment and UN voting. The most common existing proxy for how closely two countries are aligned is whether they vote together at the United Nations. The authors' treaty measure correlates with UN voting in some periods and less in others, partly because many UN votes turn on narrow questions; treaties cover more policy areas and reach back 200 years, which UN voting cannot.The recent decline in treaty-signing. Since 1800 treaty-signing has trended upward, interrupted by three sharp falls: the First World War, the Second World War, and a decline over the last 15 years that is proportionally comparable to the first two. The authors checked large-country sources directly to rule out a reporting lag, and the fall appears real.More VoxTalks Economics episodesThe safety paradox.

This Day in Legal History: The First Hague ConventionOn July 29, 1899, delegates from twenty-six nations signed the first Hague Convention, the product of an international peace conference convened at the initiative of Russia's Tsar Nicholas II. It was one of the founding moments of modern international law—an attempt, at the close of a violent century, to subject the conduct of war and the resolution of disputes between nations to legal rules rather than raw power.The 1899 Convention did two enduring things. First, it began the codification of the laws and customs of war—rules on the treatment of prisoners, the protection of civilians, and limits on certain weapons—laying groundwork that would grow into the modern law of armed conflict and, eventually, the Geneva Conventions. Second, and just as important, it created the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, the first standing international institution designed to let states resolve their disputes through neutral arbitration instead of on the battlefield. The idea was radical for its time: that sovereign nations would voluntarily submit their quarrels to a legal process.The Hague system was, of course, imperfect—the twentieth century that followed was the bloodiest in human history, and the conventions did not prevent two world wars. But the significance of July 29, 1899 is that it planted the institutional and conceptual seeds of everything that came after: the League of Nations, the United Nations, the International Court of Justice, the international criminal tribunals, and the entire architecture of treaties and adjudication that structures relations between states today. It reflects an enduring aspiration—one that runs through so much of what we cover—that disputes are better settled by law than by force. It's a fitting backdrop for a day whose stories, in their own ways, are all about turning conflict over to the legal system rather than settling it by other means.A federal appeals court has revived a proposed class action accusing Chobani of deceiving consumers by marketing some of its Greek yogurt as “zero sugar.” The Seventh Circuit in Chicago ruled that consumers can proceed with claims under state consumer-protection laws, because Chobani Zero Sugar yogurt contains about four grams per serving of allulose, a naturally occurring sweetener. Here's the wrinkle that makes this interesting. Allulose is chemically a sugar, but the body barely metabolizes it, so the FDA lets manufacturers leave it out of the “sugars” lines on the Nutrition Facts panel. Chobani leaned on exactly that, saying its panel accurately shows zero grams of total and added sugar. But the court focused on the big front-of-package promise—”Zero Sugar”—and found persuasive an FDA brief explaining that “total sugars” actually includes all monosaccharides, allulose among them. Under FDA rules, a product generally can't be labeled “zero sugar” or “sugar free” unless it has less than half a gram of sugar per serving. Writing for the court, Judge Thomas Kirsch said it was not implausible that consumers—here, a couple who bought the yogurt at a Costco near Chicago—were “fooled” by that absolute promise. The significance is a reminder that the technically-accurate fine print on the back doesn't necessarily save a bold marketing claim on the front. This is how consumer-protection law polices the gap between what a label shouts and what a product actually contains, and the ruling lets the plaintiffs try to prove that gap misled shoppers.Chobani must face lawsuit over zero-sugar yogurt claim, US appeals court rules | ReutersYahoo Finance · Insurance JournaleBay and three of its former executives have agreed to pay roughly $56 million to settle a civil suit brought by a Massachusetts couple who were the targets of one of the more disturbing corporate harassment campaigns in recent memory. The couple, Ina and David Steiner, publish an e-commerce trade newsletter, and back in 2019 several eBay employees—furious over the Steiners' coverage of the company—orchestrated a campaign to terrorize them: shipping cockroaches, live spiders and fly larvae, and a bloody pig Halloween mask to their home, sending threatening messages, and conducting covert surveillance. It grew out of internal communications in which senior executives discussed taking the couple “down.” The criminal side of this played out years ago, with multiple former employees prosecuted and sentenced. This week's news is the civil resolution: eBay will pay about $46 million to the couple plus millions more in charitable contributions, and the former executives are personally on the hook—two million dollars from former CEO Devin Wenig, and smaller sums from two others. The significance here is corporate accountability, and specifically accountability for retaliation against the press. A powerful company weaponized its resources to punish two journalists for critical coverage—the kind of retaliation that strikes at the heart of a free press—and while the criminal cases addressed the individual foot soldiers, this settlement attaches a very large price tag to the company and the executives at the top. It's a stark example of the civil justice system doing what the criminal system often can't: reaching the institution and its leadership, and making them pay.eBay, former executives to pay $56 million to settle couple's harassment case | ReutersCNN · CNBCAnd finally, prosecutors have offered their most detailed account yet of why they believe activist Charlie Kirk was killed, arguing in a new court filing that the man accused of shooting him targeted Kirk for his political and religious views. Kirk, a prominent conservative activist and ally of President Trump, was shot and killed in September 2025 at a university in Utah; Tyler Robinson, who is 23, is charged in his death. In the filing, prosecutors pointed to Kirk's opposition to gay marriage and transgender rights, and cited a letter from a board member of Kirk's organization describing him as the face of a political and religious movement. They allege Robinson's own lifestyle ran contrary to Kirk's views and that he targeted Kirk because of his “political expression.” Robinson's defense attorney pushed back, arguing that the materials the state is relying on show nothing about whether Robinson actually disagreed with Kirk or what was in his mind. And that disagreement is the legal heart of this. Motive is not, strictly speaking, an element the prosecution must prove to establish murder—but it is powerful evidence, it helps a jury make sense of a killing, and in a serious case it can bear heavily on how the crime is characterized and punished. What we're watching is the perennial challenge of proving why someone did something: the state assembling external evidence to reconstruct a defendant's internal state of mind, and the defense insisting that inference isn't proof. The significance is that a case already saturated with political meaning will now turn, in part, on a genuinely hard legal question—how, and whether, prosecutors can establish motive—and the coming proceedings will test whether their theory holds up under the rules of evidence.Prosecutors say Charlie Kirk was attacked for his politics, cite anti-LGBT views | Reuters This is a public episode.

Growing In God Podcast Program Number: GIG #312 Title: Our Prayer for Our Nations   Web Description: Daniel's prayer for Israel while they were in captivity is not simply a historical story. It is an example for us to follow. Just as Israel ignored the warnings from God that led to Jerusalem's destruction, the nations today are ignoring the abundant warnings in the Scriptures about the destruction set to happen in our day. It is time that we follow Daniel's example of seeking God, asking His forgiveness, and praying for His blessing to be on our nations.   Show Notes: The United States of America has enjoyed tremendous blessings since its founding. And we celebrate those blessings every July 4th. But even more than that, we celebrate the fact that God was involved with our founding. This nation began because people were seeking God and acknowledging Him in its formation. But we must do more than remember what great things God did in the founding of this country. We need to be walking with Him today in such a way that the blessings, the gifts, and the peace that we have experienced in this country will continue.   This applies to all nations; and Christians everywhere need to be seeking God that His covering and blessings will rest on their nations. A great example of this from the Scriptures is Daniel. Daniel was very concerned about his nation, the nation of Israel, and he prayed, "Open shame belongs to us, O Lord, to our kings, our princes and our fathers, because we have sinned against You." When we look at all that is turning our own nation away from God and away from the values that are the source of the blessings we enjoy, we should feel a deep personal shame and seek God as Daniel did.   Daniel walked uprightly before the Lord and had not done any of the things God was judging Israel for. Yet he humbled himself and accepted responsibility along with all Israel for the situation they were in. As Christians we cannot exclude ourselves from responsibility for our country. Let us evaluate our own hearts and minds. Let us lift our own thinking and ways of acting before the Lord for Him to examine. Let us be honest with ourselves about why we are in the circumstances today that are troubling the nations. Those circumstances are God's way to get us to turn to Him. Let us turn to Him with all our hearts and seek Him for His blessings to be restored to us.   Key Verses:   •       Daniel 9:2–12. "Open shame belongs to us … because we have sinned against You." •       Psalm 132:14. "This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it." •       2 Chronicles 7:16. "My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually." •       Daniel 9:16–22. "For Your sake, O Lord, let Your face shine on Your desolate sanctuary."   Quotes:   •       "I wish we as a global community of the Body of Christ would seek God on behalf of all our nations." •       "God so loved the world and He so loved mankind that He's bringing about an opportunity of grace for us to cry out to Him and find deliverance through Him." •       "If we get instruction and answers from God, let us not this time harden our hearts. Let us not at this time close our ears and our minds to what His Word is speaking to us. And let's believe that He brings, in this generation, the insight and the understanding that will, by His grace, bring deliverance to this age."   Takeaways:   1.    We should be those who acknowledge our own responsibility for whatever direction our nation is going and whatever troubles it finds itself in. And we should be seeking God for our nation to return to Him and see His blessings return to us. 2.    Let us not follow the example of those who ignored the warnings, hardened their hearts, and turned away from the prophets and the Word God was speaking. Instead, let us follow Daniel's example of admitting our guilt and seeking God for His grace and forgiveness. 3.    We need to change the atmosphere of anger in this country. The drive to not listen, to not learn, to not love, but rather to hurt one another leads to violence. And violence will beget violence until we find ourselves on the brink of civil war once again.

Send us Fan MailWhy does Genesis include a long list of ancient nations, and why does the Bible keep returning to the number seventy? In this episode of The Two Trees Podcast, we explore the Table of Nations, Noah's tragic fall after the flood, and the symbolic world of biblical numbers. Far from being a dry genealogy, Genesis 10 presents a breathtaking vision of humanity united under one Creator, while the recurring pattern of seventy points toward God's sovereign claim over every nation on earth. By tracing this theme from Noah to the Feast of Booths, the seventy elders, Jesus' seventy-two disciples, and beyond, we'll see how Scripture tells one unified story of humanity's rebellion—and God's unrelenting plan to reclaim the nations for Himself.

In this Federalist Society America 250 series, experts analyze modern legal and policy debates through the lens of the Founding generation. The Founders gave us the tools to answer many contemporary questions; join us as we explore those answers.The Founders drew their understanding of international law — known at the time as the law of nations — from 18th Century classical texts. Hamilton, Madison, Jay, Jefferson, and others all studied the edition of Emmerich de Vattel’s Law of Nations, released on the eve of the American Revolution. Its precepts were analyzed in The Federalist Papers, debated in the Constitutional Convention, and resulted in a few basic principles. First, along with the Constitution and the laws of the United States made in pursuance thereof, all Treaties made under the authority of the United States "shall be the supreme Law of the Land." Second, the Define and Punish Clause gives Congress the power to define and punish . . . Offenses against the Law of Nations.” The Founders viewed the right of self-defense as a fundamental, inherent natural right of nations. They recognized the right of preemptive use of force in anticipatory self defense. This right had an expansive interpretation, allowing actions against credible threats without awaiting an actual first strike. There was room for argument on how “imminent” the threat must be. Current international law on this issue consists of the UN Charter and contemporary understandings and interpretations of customary international law. This Forum will bring together two foremost scholars, each expert in both the Founders’ understanding and the current understanding of international law, for a conversation about the historic and contemporary interpretations of the propriety of our current war against Iran and related matters.Featuring:Prof. Martin S.

Au large de la Mauritanie, 144 personnes sont mortes ou portées disparues en une seule semaine sur la route atlantique vers les îles Canaries, l'un des corridors migratoires les plus meurtriers au monde. Parties de Gambie, plusieurs embarcations ont dérivé des jours durant, dont l'une pendant près de 25 jours avant d'être secourue : sur ce bateau, 144 passagers sont décédés ou introuvables, seulement 38 ont survécu, selon le HCR, le Haut Commissariat des Nations unies pour les réfugiés. Comment expliquer qu'un bateau puisse dériver pendant 25 jours sans être secouru ? Pourquoi les migrants continuent-ils d'utiliser cette route pour rejoindre les îles Canaries malgré sa dangerosité ? Avec Louise Huet, journaliste à Infomigrants.

John Batchelor discusses the current tensions between Iran and the United States with Ambassador Husain Haqqaniand Bill Roggio following a sudden halt in American bombing. Haqqani explains that both nations are seeking a diplomatic "off-ramp," though they face severe internal political constraints that prevent either a ground invasion or a total surrender. Bill Roggio adds that while secret talks are likely, reports of depleted US munitions might be influencing the decision to pause military action. (1)

Donald Trump envisagerait de proposer Gianni Infantino, président de la Fifa, au poste de secrétaire général des Nations unies, selon le New York Post. Une idée portée par Paolo Zampolli, proche du président américain, qui juge les fonctions à la tête de la Fifa et de l'ONU « assez proches » et souligne que la fédération compte plus de membres que l'organisation onusienne. Quel avantage le président américain gagnerait-il à placer un proche à la tête de l'ONU ? Cette idée a-t-elle vraiment des chances d'aboutir ? Avec Guillaume Naudin, présentateur de la chronique « La fabrique du monde ».

Au Niger, il y a trois ans, le 26 juillet 2023, le président Mohamed Bazoum était renversé par un coup d'État militaire. Il est toujours retenu à Niamey avec son épouse. Depuis, le pays est dirigé par le Conseil national pour la sauvegarde de la patrie (CNSP), avec à sa tête le général Abdourahamane Tiani, officiellement investi président l'an dernier pour une durée de cinq ans renouvelables. L'économiste Kiari Liman-Tinguiri, directeur de l'institut West Africa and Sahel Development Institute (Wasdi), ex-ambassadeur du Niger aux États-Unis sous la présidence Bazoum est l'invité de RFI. RFI : Quel bilan trois ans après l'arrivée du Conseil national pour la sauvegarde de la patrie au pouvoir au Niger ? Kiari Liman-Tinguiri : Les arguments avancés pour expliquer le coup d'État au Niger étaient doubles. Il y avait d'abord la situation sécuritaire et ensuite ce qu'ils ont appelé la gouvernance. Du point de vue de la sécurité, malheureusement, le constat est que la situation s'est détériorée de façon incontestable par rapport à 2023. Quels sont les éléments factuels dont vous disposez pour dire que la situation s'est détériorée au niveau sécuritaire ? Je me base sur des données publiques : les données de la base d'Acled. Il y a eu une hausse du nombre d'incidents sécuritaires. Il y a eu une augmentation du nombre de pertes en vies humaines. Il y a eu une augmentation du nombre d'attaques contre les forces armées. Et il y a eu une extension géographique de la violence jihadiste. Comment peut-on expliquer cette détérioration de la situation sécuritaire ? Est-elle est liée au contexte régional peut-être ? Sauf que dans le même temps, la région de Tillabéri est devenue la région la plus affectée par la violence terroriste. C'est là où il y a le plus de morts. Il n'y a aucune région, ni du Mali, ni du Burkina Faso, qui a enregistré cela. Sur le plan politique, tous les partis ont désormais été dissous au Niger, en 2025. Est-ce qu'il y a encore, à ce jour, une vie politique dans le pays ? Malheureusement, non. Si ce n'était que la dissolution des partis politiques… Il y a au Niger un rétrécissement extrême de l'espace civique. Vous avez des arrestations arbitraires en grand nombre. Vous avez une suppression de toute possibilité de liberté d'expression, l'interdiction des médias même internationaux, le mépris des décisions de justice, la dissolution des organisations non-gouvernementales et leur soumission à un système de contrôle sans précédent. Donc, un régime autoritaire. C'est ça la réalité. Cela fait trois ans que Mohamed Bazoum est détenu à Niamey. Quelles sont les nouvelles que vous avez du président renversé ? Comment se porte-t-il aujourd'hui ? J'espère qu'il se porte bien, mais le président Bazoum n'a pas de contact. Il a été privé des moyens de communication depuis très longtemps. Sa situation est préoccupante. D'abord la détention injuste, injustifiable. Il n'y a pas de précédent dans notre pays. Le président Bazoum, à l'heure où nous parlons, a été détenu plus longtemps qu'il n'a gouverné le pays. Sa détention est arbitraire. Ça, ça a été décidé par un groupe de travail des Nations unies. Il n'a pas été jugé. Il n'y a aucun grief public contre lui. Mais il y a d'autres personnes détenues : son ministre de l'Intérieur Hamadou Adamou Souley, Moussa Tchangari un activiste de la société civile... Il faut libérer tout ce monde. Économiquement en tout cas, malgré les prédictions des plus pessimistes, le pays ne s'est pas effondré. Comment décririez-vous aujourd'hui l'économie nigérienne ? Oui, sur le plan factuel, on a une croissance économique forte. En 2024, c'est remarquable, entre 9% et 10 %. En 2025, les estimations la placent autour de 7 %. Ça, c'est pour la croissance macroéconomique. Grâce au pétrole ? C'est le pétrole. Le pétrole représente à peu près 9 % du PIB. Le deuxième contributeur à la croissance, c'est l'agriculture. Mais les deux sources font qu'il ne s'agit pas d'une performance de politique publique ou de stratégie économique. Qu'il s'agisse du pipeline Niger-Bénin, qu'il s'agisse des investissements pétroliers, tout cela a été négocié et était sur le point d'entrer en production quand le coup d'État est intervenu. Transformer une croissance de nature pétrolière en réduction de la pauvreté ou en bien-être des populations, ça, ça demande des politiques publiques. De surcroît, il y a une baisse drastique de l'aide. Et tout ça, sur fond d'une augmentation de nos dépenses en matière de défense. Il y a quand même un autre élément à prendre en compte, c'est cette fermeture de la frontière entre le Niger et le Bénin. Que fait perdre cette fermeture de la frontière à Niamey ?   C'est l'une des choses les plus incompréhensibles. Il semble que la querelle procéderait de la possibilité qu'il y ait des forces françaises basées au Bénin, qui constitueraient une menace. Mais on ne peut pas réclamer pour soi la souveraineté et décider qui peut aller chez les autres. Par bonheur, le pétrole passe quand même par le Bénin. Donc, la frontière est fermée, mais juste la frontière terrestre, au niveau de Malanville. Avec les militaires, le CNSP tient au pouvoir trois ans après. Comment d'après vous et pourquoi ? Il n'y a pas qu'au Niger. C'est le cas au Mali, c'est le cas au Burkina Faso. Je ne pense pas que le fait de perdurer au pouvoir soit lié à la performance. C'est davantage lié à l'atonie de l'élite. Les gens s'accommodent de la situation sur place. Et puis, compte tenu de la situation sécuritaire, ce ne serait un cadeau pour personne, j'imagine. C'est une tragédie de penser comme ça. La pression jihadiste est si forte que je ne sais pas si le pouvoir attire. À lire aussiTrois ans après le coup d'État, le Niger toujours en proie à l'instabilité et au terrorisme

Romans 1:2-7 presents Jesus as the central focus of all Scripture and the fulfillment of God's promises. The Old Testament is revealed as a unified story that points to Christ through prophecy, symbolic figures, and God's redemptive plan. Jesus alone fulfills what Adam, Abraham, Moses, David, the priesthood, the sacrificial system, and Israel itself could not. As both fully God and fully man, His divine identity is ultimately confirmed by His resurrection, which validates God's promises, affirms the authority of Scripture, and gives believers confident hope. Paul concludes that the gospel produces the “obedience of faith,” a transformed life that flows from genuine trust in Christ rather than fear, legalism, or outward rule-keeping. True faith reshapes the heart so that obedience becomes the natural fruit of love for God. The result is a people increasingly conformed to Christ, marked by peace, joy, sacrificial love, and the assurance that they are fully accepted by God's grace.

What if the answer you've been praying for is already right in front of you? In the final message of our Vision series, discover how Jesus calls us to lift our eyes, recognize what God is already doing, and live with the joy of His promises before they become reality. When God gives vision, He changes the way we see people, opportunities, and our future. If you've ever felt like you're waiting on God, this message will challenge you to take a fresh look at what's already in front of you and trust His perspective over your own. At Church for the Nations, we are one multicultural, multigenerational family of imperfect people awakened by God's perfect love being sent as transforming agents into the world to influence culture. CFTN is led by Dr. Michael and Mary Maiden and is based in Phoenix, AZ with multiple locations in the US and abroad.

As Bible believers we know that prior to the Battle of Armageddon there will be a period of peace in the land of Israel. This peace is to be throughout the whole land, but particularly upon the “mountains of Israel”. This is most clear in Ezekiel 38 which describes a future event where the northern confederacy of nations comes against a land known as “the land of unwalled villages”. The returned of Israel are described as “dwelling safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bar nor gates”. The text is very clear that “they shall dwell safely, all of them”. This is not “some of them”, but “all of them”. It has been suggested that what is being described to us is a people simply “dwelling confidently” (which some renderings of the word safely can be consistent with”, however the text is clear that not only are they dwelling with confidence it is without walls, bars and gates.

This sermon centered on the enduring faithfulness of God to the Jewish people across 2,000 years of history. The conversation focused on two parallel stories: the observable events of history—wars, exiles, persecutions, and dispersions—and the less visible story of God preserving the Jewish people and his promises to them. A key theme that emerged was the survival of the Jewish nation against overwhelming odds, through multiple waves of dispersion, loss of homeland, persecution by Christian and Islamic powers, and centuries of antagonism. The discussion explored how church history contributed to anti-Jewish theology and actions, and how false accusations and violence repeatedly targeted Jewish communities. Yet, their unique identity, faith, and hope remained intact. One concept discussed was the assurance, rooted in Scripture, that even when disciplining Israel, God did not reject them or annul his covenant; instead, his promises endured, as highlighted through readings from Luke, Deuteronomy, and Isaiah. The sermon concluded with the idea that Israel's survival is a testament to God's irrevocable faithfulness. Just as God kept his promises to Israel despite centuries of adversity, believers can trust God's reliability in their own trials and uncertainties.

Henry Sokolski continues: the Saudi nuclear deal could trigger a proliferation race, with nations like Egypt, Turkey, and the UAE demanding similar enrichment rights. Furthermore, allies such as South Korea and Poland may reconsider their own nuclear ambitions if they view American security guarantees as insufficient. Proliferation is no longer "old news" but a growing threat as nations seek their own deterrents. The result is a destabilized global order where multiple states hover on the verge of nuclear weapon status. (8)1942 B-25 DOOLITTLE RAID ON TOKYO

Dr. Robert Joustra joins The Biblical Mind Podcast to explore one of the most neglected questions in Christian ethics: What does the Bible have to say about international politics? Beginning with difficult questions like the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Joustra argues that Christians need more than political pragmatism—they need a distinctly biblical framework for thinking about war, diplomacy, justice, nationalism, and global responsibility.Drawing from the theological tradition of Augustine, Calvin, and Abraham Kuyper, Joustra explains how concepts like just war theory, ordered loves, sphere sovereignty, and the common good help Christians navigate today's geopolitical challenges. The conversation examines whether Scripture speaks to foreign policy, how the prophets shape our understanding of nations, and why political power must always remain penultimate to the kingship of Christ.The discussion also engages contemporary debates surrounding nationalism, empire, immigration, religious identity, and the American political experiment, offering a thoughtful Christian response to the complexities of modern international relations.Whether you're interested in biblical theology, political philosophy, Christian ethics, or global affairs, this episode provides a rich introduction to thinking faithfully about the nations, justice, and the role of Christians in an increasingly interconnected world.
