Why are billionaires building bunkers in the mountains? Why did Germany mandate underground shelters? Why did Russia run a drill to get 40 million people underground in twelve hours? Jamie Walden says they all know something, and it has a name. Apophis. He returns to Blurry Creatures to connect the asteroid coming in 2029 to the book of Revelation, and to argue that almost everything strange about the last six years traces back to one event. 2020. The Great Reset. Genetic data banks. The push for underground cities. Jamie frames it as a counterfeit ark, a man-made attempt to choose who survives what God already promised was coming. It sounds overwhelming, and it is. But Jamie does not hand you fear. He hands you the gospel instead. The asteroid may or may not be Wormwood. The real question is whether you believe God is good.

What if marriage was never meant to be primarily about your happiness? In this episode, Dr. Kim sits down with Randy and Rozanne Frazee, authors of Encountering God's Love from Genesis to Revelation, to explore how God's design for marriage is part of a much bigger story. Together, they discuss how understanding God's love throughout Scripture can transform the way couples view their relationship, shifting the focus from chasing happiness to living out a covenant that reflects Christ's love. Randy and Rozanne share wisdom from their own marriage, practical ways couples can encounter God together, and encouragement for those who feel spiritually disconnected. You'll learn why spiritual intimacy doesn't require grand gestures, how your relationship with God directly impacts your relationship with your spouse, and why counseling can be one of the healthiest investments you make before a crisis ever arrives. Whether you're in a thriving season or feeling stuck, this conversation will help you see your marriage through a wider lens, one that is rooted in God's purpose, sustained by His love, and strengthened through intentional connection. Episode Highlights Marriage Was Designed for More Than Happiness How God's Bigger Story Gives Marriage Greater Purpose Your Relationship with God Shapes Your Relationship with Your Spouse Simple Ways to Build Spiritual Intimacy Together Why Counseling Should Be Preventative, Not Just a Last Resort Practical Steps for Reconnecting When You Feel Spiritually Disconnected Key Takeaway The healthiest marriages aren't built by pursuing happiness first. They're built by pursuing God together, faithfully living out your covenant commitment, and allowing His love to shape the way you love one another. Quotes from This Episode:  Randy Frazee Quotes "The closer we move to Christ, the closer we move to each other." "Marriage is really more about sacrifice. God instills this amazing agape love in you, and your job is to pour it out to others—especially your spouse." "The pursuit wasn't happiness. The pursuit was fulfilling our covenant commitment. As a result of that, we received happiness." "When you go after the feeling of happiness, it almost always devastates the relationship you're in. When you go after the responsibility of being like Christ for the sake of others, happiness often follows." "Marriages don't drift toward intimacy—they drift toward chaos. That's why intentionality matters." "The love you have to offer apart from God will eventually get you into trouble. You need God's love flowing into you before it can flow through you." Rozanne Frazee Quotes "I can't put expectations on him because he will always let me down. God will never let me down." "Marriage in Scripture is never presented as a right. It's presented as a responsibility." "The wall of resentment goes up very quickly, but it comes down one brick at a time." "Knowing that God loves me unconditionally gives me the freedom to risk loving another person." "If you want your husband to become more of a spiritual leader, encourage what he's doing instead of criticizing what he's not doing." "As you grow closer to God, you'll naturally grow closer to each other." "Don't wait until the last minute to get help. Go early. Go often. Go preventatively." Dr. Kim Quotes "We can't put our marriage on the back burner for eighteen years while we raise kids and expect it to still be thriving when they're gone." "You'll never regret carving out intentional time for your marriage, but you will regret not doing it." "Your obedience is to God. Keep doing what God is calling you to do, whether your spouse responds immediately or not." "A thirty-second prayer, a verse of the day, a simple step—just start somewhere. God can grow it from there." "What makes the difference isn't doing marriage perfectly—it's continually coming back to God's design for it." "Sometimes the most important thing a couple can do is simply make the time to reconnect."   Time to Talk About It:  What is one thing you see God doing in me (your spouse)  right now that you appreciate and want to encourage?  Have there been times when we've expected each other to meet needs that really need to be taken to God first? What's one small thing we could do this week to be more intentional about growing closer to God together? Is there anything we've been putting off talking about that would be better to address now instead of letting it sit?   Mentioned in this Episode: Get your copy of Encountering God's Love from Genesis to Revelation Check out Awesome Marriage's Two Week Scripture Challenge with your spouse.

Did Irenaeus really teach that Revelation was written during the reign of Domitian? In Episode 11 of the Revelation Series, Jay Rogers examines one of the most frequently cited arguments for the late date of Revelation and asks whether the evidence has been misunderstood for centuries. The famous statement from Irenaeus is often presented as the decisive proof that Revelation was written in the 90s AD. But what did Irenaeus actually mean? And does the original Greek support the common interpretation? In this episode: The famous "time of Domitian" statement The disputed Greek grammar behind the passage Why this quotation became so influential The implications for the dating of Revelation How the debate affects the identity of the Beast and the fall of Jerusalem Could the strongest argument for the late date actually be weaker than many assume?

Hey y'all ! Welcome to another Friday with CWCOI ! In this week's episode, our host, Ally Yost reads through the book of Revelation in chapters 1 through 3. Revelation can be a book we are intimidated or overwhelmed by. Although, it was originally written to offer hope and encouragement to early Christians and it is just as relatable now as it was then. This episode is the start of a four part series that we will continue reading over the next few weeks until we finish Revelation completely. So grab your Bible if you're able to and let's dive deeper into what God has for us today. "God blesses the one who reads the words of this prophecy to the church, and he blesses all who listen to its message and obey what it says, for the time is near."

In Jesus' letter to the church in Ephesus, he gives a commendation—a list of “well dones”—and yet the church is lacking something significant: they left their first love. Rather than an insignificant issue, this is at the center of what the Christian life is supposed to be. In this message, Nathan examines Revelation 2:2–4 and discusses both the good and the bad of the Ephesian church, and how they relate directly to our key issue in today's Church.------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Nathan, Eric, Leslie, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/» Discover more Christ-centered teaching and resources from Nathan Johnson that will help you grow spiritually by checking out his website at: https://deeperchristian.com/

Mary welcomes back David Holland to get his take on the thing of which most of us have little to no working understanding: the global economy. On the recent death of internationally known Fed Chair Alan Greenspan at age 100, we look at the world he presided over, versus the partisanship and digital challenges 20 years later. Yet one thing remains constant: God is the one Who will allow the Money Masters of the Universe to pull the rug and the plug and lead us into the Revelation version of a global economy. Who is the new Fed Chair and what does he want with our money? We talk about tech bubbles, national bubbles, booms and busts while navigating warnings of the sky falling on us all. What is the Yen Carry Trade? Empires and kingdoms have come and gone and crumbled at some point so we know change is on the way regardless. Always an informative hour with David.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Is the world about to end? This may be a question you have heard or maybe even thought about yourself. With all the turmoil going on in the world today, are we approaching the end or have we been misunderstanding what the real Meaning of Revelation is this whole time?

Looking at Revelation through the eyes of the early church and what it can mean for us today.

Sunday Service (6/14/26) // Revelation 18:1-8 (ESV) // *The Fall of Babylon^ // 1 After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was made bright with his glory. 2 And he called out with a mighty voice,“Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place for demons,a haunt for every unclean spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable beast.3 For all nations have drunk[a] the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality,and the kings of the earth have committed immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich from the power of her luxurious living.”4 Then I heard another voice from heaven saying,“Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins,lest you share in her plagues;5 for her sins are heaped high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.6 Pay her back as she herself has paid back others, and repay her double for her deeds; mix a double portion for her in the cup she mixed.7 As she glorified herself and lived in luxury, so give her a like measure of torment and mourning,since in her heart she says, ‘I sit as a queen,I am no widow, and mourning I shall never see.'8 For this reason her plagues will come in a single day, death and mourning and famine,and she will be burned up with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who has judged her.”Footnotesa.

It is my tremendous honor to be joined by Patrick Walker of Warning and 40 Watt Sun for what is not only first ever non-print interview, but also HardLore's first ever 1 on 1 interview with a guest.In this appropriately intimate chat, we discuss his humble upbringing in Harlow, Essex UK.From the Jackson 5 and Tears For Fears to Revelation and Saint Vitus, we discover how Patrick's emotional connection with music flourished, and how he evolved into someone i've always considered to be one of the most personal and deliberate songwriters in the world. We learn the canonical standing of Warning and 40 Watt Sun in Patrick's point of view, the 20 year lasting legacy of "Watching From A Distance" and why now was finally time to return to Warning for "Rituals of Shame."After years of championing Patrick's work both on and off HardLore, it was an honor not only to have this chat, but to share more about someone whose work I admire so much.

Jase, Al, and Zach dig into the parenting rhythms that plant God's word in kids early, including the moment a Jase's godson thought God was too far away to hear him pray. Zach connects sin to a false version of reality that promises freedom but produces death. Al reflects on Liam Neeson's iconic movie “Taken,”  and the scene that illustrates the perfect picture of what it means to be a man of your word, in truth and action.

"I struggle with rejection, even when I haven't actually been rejected." At our last Couple's Night, one of the guys put his finger on something that has a name: Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria. Check out the blog post here for more details and links.RSD is a wave of emotional pain that lands way out of proportion to whatever actually happened, and the rejection doesn't even have to be real. It is most strongly tied to ADHD, and in a marriage it can quietly do a lot of damage: over time the higher-desire spouse stops initiating, the marriage slowly goes quiet, and neither spouse understands why.In this episode I unpack what RSD actually is, how it shows up between spouses and in the bedroom, five things that genuinely help, and why none of it means you were woven wrong.In this episode:(0:00) Intro(1:13) What Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria actually is(2:00) When the rejection isn't even real(2:41) The ADHD connection(3:16) How RSD shows up in a marriage(4:11) RSD in the bedroom(5:20) What actually helps - 5 steps(7:05) Medication, and why SSRIs miss it(8:29) You're not woven wrong(11:09) Book a free ADHD discovery callScripture referenced: Psalm 139:13, Revelation 13:8, 2 Timothy 1:9, Ephesians 1:4, Titus 1:2, John 14:2-3, 1 Thessalonians 4:17, Revelation 21:3, Luke 23:42-43, Romans 10:9, Romans 10:13, John 3:16, Revelation 3:20, Revelation 22:17.Links mentioned:Married with ADHD - book a free discovery callMarriage CoachingSubscribe to our newsletterFollow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.If you'd like to discuss topics like this with other married Christians, consider joining our private forum.Thank you to all our faithful champions!If you'd like to support our ministry and see it grow, check out our support page for more info.

In Part 2 of this conversation, Stasi welcomes back Blaine Eldredge, Director of Spiritual Formation at Wild at Heart, to continue unpacking the mystery of beauty—the beauty that flows from our intimacy with Jesus. Together they explore the vulnerability and courage it takes to let our true selves be seen in a world that wounds beauty so deeply, and the healing ways Jesus continues to draw near with tenderness, restoration, and a love that calls out the beauty within us. Come and rediscover the beauty of God alive in us.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: John 15:9 (NIV) – As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.

Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”Hosea 2:19 (NIV) – I will betroth you to me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in love and compassion.Romans 8:22 (NIV) – We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.Revelation 21:5 (NIV) – He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!”…..CHAPTER TIMESTAMPS00:00 Returning to the Mystery of Beauty01:42 Beauty That Builds Relationship07:10 What True Beauty Really Is13:48 The Vulnerability of Being Seen18:50 Beauty That Risks Love24:03 Why the Enemy Attacks Beauty30:20 The Beauty of a Forgiving Heart33:22 Jesus and the Woman Accused38:47 What Jesus Does to Win Our Love43:08 Becoming Beautiful to Jesus46:07 Carrying Beauty Into Our Relationships47:24 Closing Prayer and Blessing…..RESOURCESIf you haven't listened to Part 1 — E123 | Beauty, Vulnerability, and the Heart of God — you can do so here: YouTube:  ⁠https://youtu.be/crrX6S-P5NI⁠Wild at Heart App:  ⁠https://wahe.art/3SfAXge⁠Captivating: Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman's Soul by John and Stasi Eldredge   ⁠https://wahe.art/3L9tLMc⁠Becoming Myself: Embracing God's Dream of You by Stasi Eldredge  ⁠https://amzn.to/4hzdQUL⁠The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are by Brené Brown ⁠https://amzn.to/4vk2NpW⁠…..Don't Miss Out on the Next Episode—Subscribe for FreeSubscribe using your favorite podcast app:YouTube – ⁠https://wahe.art/4h8DelL⁠Spotify Podcasts – ⁠https://wahe.art/496zdfn⁠Apple Podcasts – ⁠https://apple.co/42E0oZ1⁠ Amazon Music & Audible – ⁠https://amzn.to/3M9u6hJ⁠

Few books of the Bible have generated more questions, confusion, and debate than the book of Revelation. In this special teaching episode, we explore how to understand and interpret this fascinating book, uncover its original message, and discover why its central focus is not fear, speculation, or conspiracy—but Jesus.

No one is truly alone. Some people have many relatives and friends, others just a few. Occasionally, someone will have no real friends or family, but all of us interact with humans, and that over time, has proven to be dicey. The health of our relationships is one of the biggest factors in how we function each day. Turmoil and chaos at home or work, or both, puts us in emotional quicksand. On the other hand, healthy relationships in our lives improve our overall health and make us more productive.In Genesis, God modeled right relationships for humans, and this model continues through the Bible right to the end in Revelation. From this, we see that our first priority in relationships is to be in fellowship with our Creator. Get that one right, and everything else flows. Following close behind is finding harmony in our human relationships, and getting this right is crucial to finding peace. Ephesians 4:2–3 says, “Be completely humble and gentle. Be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”Most people are familiar with the well-known Bible verses that deal with relationships, such as Paul's wisdom from Ephesians, but Scripture is loaded with helpful and healing relationship commands. We hesitate to call it advice because God doesn't really give advice. He tells us what is good for us and what may be harmful. For example, a fairly obscure passage in Job speaks to mean in any era having healthy relationships with women. In Job 31:1 the suffering man says, “I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman.” Wow. So simple, yet very important and profound.That chapter goes on to say that God sees all that we do. He's watching how we treat people. Job made it clear that a man can decide he's going to treat women with respect. It isn't complicated or beyond our reach. So often, simply deciding to be a decent human being leads to waves of healing and peace of mind for everyone.

Message preached by Pastor Daren Downs on Wednesday, June 23, 2026.

Revelation 19:19-21 Some surprising insight into the battle of Armageddon!Support the show

In this message, Pastor Jake unpacks Acts 19:1–10 to show how the early church multiplied through ordinary disciples clothed with extraordinary power. Beginning with Paul's encounter with the “about twelve” in Ephesus, we see the clear biblical distinction between repentance, water baptism, and Spirit-empowerment for mission (Acts 18:24–28; Acts 19:1–7; Luke 3:16).Drawing on Luke–Acts, Pastor Jake explains how Scripture contrasts John's baptism of repentance with Jesus' baptism in the Holy Spirit (Luke 3:15–17; Acts 1:4–8; Acts 2:1–4, 38–39). He highlights how Luke consistently describes the Spirit's work as being “filled,” “receiving,” “poured out,” and “coming upon” (Acts 2:4; 4:8, 31; 8:14–17; 10:44–48; 19:6), emphasizing that this is an ongoing, available gift—not a one-time religious formality.This sermon calls listeners to:• Move from being mere beneficiaries of the gospel to empowered agents of the gospel (Acts 8:4; 11:19–21; Romans 10:14–15).• Pray prophetic promises into fulfillment, like Daniel did with Jeremiah's word (Daniel 9:1–3; Jeremiah 29:10–14; 1 Timothy 1:18–19).• Renounce divided allegiances and rival spiritual powers—crystals, tarot, horoscopes, new age practices, and manipulative anger—as modern forms of sorcery (Acts 19:18–20; Ephesians 4:26–27; 1 Corinthians 10:20–21; Galatians 5:19–21).• Seek fresh fillings of the Holy Spirit amid opposition, as in Acts 4:23–31, recognizing that God empowers soldiers, not spectators (Ephesians 6:10–18; 2 Timothy 2:3–4).Through the story of Ephesus becoming a missional hub—so that “all who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord” (Acts 19:10; cf. Colossians 1:6–8; Revelation 2–3)—Pastor Jake casts vision for churches today as apostolic centers in cities and regions, multiplying campuses and works by the Spirit's power, not human ambition (Zechariah 4:6; Acts 13:1–3).If you hunger for more than comfortable Christianity and long to see bold proclamation, spiritual gifts, repentance, and city-shaping impact, this message will call you to the altar of availability, to be clothed with power from on high (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8).

In this message, discover how God calls every believer into “holy work” empowered by His Spirit—not just inside the church, but in creativity, business, parenting, and everyday vocation.Drawing from Colossians, Ephesians, and the sweep of the biblical story, this sermon explores:The sacred nature of workWork in Eden before the fall – Genesis 1:26–28; 2:15Co-laboring with God in His mission – 1 Corinthians 3:5–9Making disciples as the core “work” of every believer – Matthew 28:18–20; John 15:1–8Living in the fifth act of God's storyCreation, Fall, Israel, Jesus, Church, New Creation – Genesis 1–3; Exodus 19–20; Jeremiah 31:31–34; John 1:14; Acts 1:8; Revelation 21–22Our place in God's unfolding drama – Acts 13:36; Ephesians 2:10In Christ: the engine of holy workFully mature “in Christ” – Colossians 1:28–29; 2:5–7, 9–10Firm faith in Christ vs. hollow tradition – Colossians 2:8–17Abiding in Christ for lasting fruit – John 15:4–5A New Testament view of SabbathSabbath as a shadow; Christ as the substance – Colossians 2:16–17Jesus, Lord of the Sabbath – Matthew 12:1–8; Mark 2:27–28Rest not as a rigid day but a Person we live in – Matthew 11:28–30; Hebrews 4:1–11Power for the assignmentStrenuously contending with His energy – Colossians 1:28–29 (NKJV/NIV)Dunamis and energeia: resurrection power at work in us – Ephesians 1:18–20; 3:16–21You will receive power and be My witnesses – Acts 1:8Calling creatives and business leadersCommissioning creatives to disciple through art, music, and media – Exodus 31:1–5; Psalm 33:3Commissioning marketplace leaders as kingdom builders – Deuteronomy 8:18; Proverbs 11:25; Luke 16:10–12Learn why vision is the antidote to sin (Proverbs 29:18), why mature Christians go to church full to leave empty in service (2 Timothy 4:6–8), and how to live a life of costly, joy-filled obedience that ends each day exhausted but deeply at rest in Christ.

“Why are we guilty of the sin of Adam and Eve?” This question opens a discussion on original sin and its implications for humanity. The episode also addresses the introduction of the “Once Saved Always Saved” concept, clarifies the authority of papal documents regarding salvation, and explores the challenges faced by a divorced Catholic seeking to return to the faith. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 04:25 – Why Are We Guilty of the Sin of Adam and Eve? 12:13 – How did the idea of Once Saved Always Saved get introduced into the world? 19:02 – Regarding Papal documents that say shedding blood for Christ won't get you into heaven unless one submits to the pontiff. I’ve heard it argued that protestants are, loosely, under his authority but that feels more like a technicality rather than a development of doctrine. Can you help clarify? 29:05 – How is a fallen away Catholic who is divorced but wants to begin practicing the faith again supposed to live? 34:45 – Revelation 19:9 talks about the true things of God. Does that imply there are also bad things of God? 41:30 – I'm a Baptist. How is dogma viewed in Catholicism? Why are they required for salvation and why not treat them like some Marian apparitions where the Church allows the belief but doesn't require it?

Life has a way of pulling our attention in a thousand different directions. Personal struggles, cultural tensions, financial pressures, and uncertainty about the future can leave us feeling anxious and overwhelmed. In this message, Francis Chan encourages us to step back and remember the bigger story. Walking through Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, he highlights God's faithfulness, His patience toward humanity, and His promise to make all things new. As we see our lives in light of eternity and God's unchanging character, fear begins to lose its grip, and we find rest in the One who holds all things together.

What does the Bible actually teach about sex, marriage, purity, temptation, and human sexuality? In this episode of Take Heart, Cory Wing explores God's design for sexuality from Genesis to Revelation. He explains why Scripture presents sex as a good gift within marriage, how sin distorts God's design, and why the gospel offers hope, forgiveness, and transformation for every believer. Topics include marriage, purity, lust, pornography, adultery, homosexuality, temptation, repentance, and the hope found in Christ. Whether you are struggling personally or seeking biblical clarity in a confused culture, this episode offers practical wisdom and gospel-centered encouragement.

Did the apostles expect prophecy to be fulfilled in their own generation? In Episode 10 of the Revelation Series, Jay Rogers brings together the major events of the first century—Nero's persecution, the ministries and deaths of Peter and Paul, the writing of Revelation, and the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. Rather than treating these events as unrelated pieces of history, this episode examines how they may fit together as part of the prophetic framework Jesus described decades earlier. In this episode: Nero's persecution of the early church The martyrdom of Peter and Paul The dating and purpose of Revelation The destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple The significance of AD 70 in biblical prophecy How the apostles understood the "last days" What if the apostles were not warning about events thousands of years in the future, but about a crisis rapidly approaching their own generation? This episode explores how prophecy, history, and the mission of the early church converged in the first century.

It's Monday, June 22nd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Canadian Parliament passes anti-Bible bill Sadly, Canada's Parliament passed the anti-Bible bill. LifeSiteNews.com reports that a final attempt to stop Bill C-9 was defeated. The bill, which threatens to criminalize quoting parts of the Bible, including on homosexuality, will soon become law. On Wednesday, June 17, a majority of Members of Parliament voted down an attempt by conservative Andrew Lawton to stop Bill C-9 “once and for all.” In an X post, he wrote, that the liberals “voted down my motion to withdraw the divisive and toxic Bill C-9 to stand up for freedom of expression and freedom of religion.”  Another conservative Member of Parliament, Brad Redekopp, called the official passage of Bill C-9 a “dark day” for Canada and religious freedom. The bill was introduced by Justice Minister Sean Fraser last year. Specifically, Bill C-9 would remove Section 319(3)(b) of Canada's Criminal Code.  That's the section which protects the good-faith expression of a person's religious views based on religious texts such as the Holy Bible. Galatians 6:7 declares, “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked.” Proof that Fauci funded lab research that sparked COVID A trove of communications and documents released by outgoing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard show that Dr. Anthony Fauci “provided millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research” on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and that Fauci “lied to Congress,” reports LifeSiteNews.com. In a viral overnight social media video on June 19th already seen by millions, Gabbard made this announcement. GABBARD: “Before the COVID pandemic, Dr. Fauci, as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, provided millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, work which is now widely viewed as the source of the unintentional lab leak that sparked the pandemic. “Now, in support of President Trump's maximum transparency mandate, today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I'm releasing never-before-seen communications and documents that expose exactly how Fauci worked with politicized career leadership in the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions, the virus's lab leak origins, and his role in directing U.S. funding for this dangerous research that caused immeasurable harm and countless lost lives. “Now, these documents expose Fauci's direct role in influencing and manipulating [Intelligence Community] assessments on COVID 19, and how Fauci lied to Congress in 2024 when, under oath, he denied knowledge of or participation in discussions with intelligence officials about viral research.” Dr. Fauci's close Intelligence Community relationships enabled him to “assume three key roles during the pandemic that shielded him from scrutiny as he wielded outsized influence.” First, Fauci funded risky coronavirus research linked to Big Pharma and the pursuit of “universal vaccines” worth trillions of dollars. Second, Fauci was the behind-the-scenes advisor who, with his hand-picked experts, pushed the Intelligence Community to endorse a natural, animal origin to hide his dangerous research. And third, Fauci became the nation's pandemic “pundit” and publicly pushed lies, disinformation, and censorship. GOP Senator: Trump's peace deal with Iran seemed elusive Appearing on Fox News Channel on June 17th, Republican Senator Eric Schmitt of Missouri, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, expressed his approval of the deal that President Donald Trump negotiated with Iran, reports RealClearPolitics.com. SCHMITT:  “The president of the United States, President Trump, was very clear from the get-go what the mission here was, which was to ensure that Iran would never have a nuclear weapon. They have no ability to do that. And they're signing on the dotted line now, Sean, for the first time, that they're not going to do that. “And we don't need to trust them. We just need to verify that. Effectively, the president knocked out their military capability. Their Navy is at the bottom of the sea. They have no air defense. Their nuclear program is in shambles. It's nowhere near ever being started up again. And we can always go back and mow the lawn, if necessary, because we've got eyes on it. “The president has provided now, through all of that action, space for diplomacy. That has always been his North Star. There's always more things to do. We need to make sure, obviously, we're verifying all of this. But the president has pulled off something here that most experts, six months ago, wouldn't have thought was possible. And I think it's good for the American people.” FBI foiled terrorist plot against UFC 250 event at White House A terror plot targeting the Ultimate Fighting Championship event at the White House on June 14th reportedly involved those who were ready to deploy snipers and drones armed with explosives to carry out a mass casualty attack against U.S. government officials. In a June 16th statement, FBI Director Kash Patel said his agency and its law enforcement partners became aware of the potential threat on June 10. He confirmed that authorities stopped the alleged plot before it began. Patel said, "Thanks to the rapid action of this FBI, our partners, and the Department of Justice in a multi-state operation, multiple individuals are now in custody and allegedly planned attacks were stopped cold. “We are built to detect, respond to, and bring to justice those who threaten the lives of American citizens — particularly during large gatherings like the historic UFC 250 fight" which drew 85,000 people to the Ellipse. James Talarico: God is non-binary; Jesus does not call us to worship Him And finally, James Talarico, the Texas Democrat candidate in the U.S. Senate race against Republican Ken Paxton, has made some bizarre claims about God and Jesus. Listen. TALARICO:  “God is both masculine and feminine, and everything in between. God is non-binary.” And here's what Talarico said about Jesus. TALARICO: “Not once in the entire Bible does Jesus ask us to worship Him. All He asks is that we follow Him.” Pastor Josh Howerton, Senior Pastor of Lakepointe Church in Dallas, Texas, called James Talarico a heretic. HOWERTON: “The whole last book of the Bible is the Lamb is seated on the throne with more people than anybody can count bowing down and worshiping Him, throwing crowns before Him. And then anybody who won't do that, He's throwing them into the lake of fire. “This is not me being mean or exaggerating: he's an actual heretic, like a biblically-defined false teacher and heretic. “Politicians, since the beginning of time, have been twisting Scripture, using Scripture to try to convince people to do what they want. This is the first guy I've ever seen whose whole platform is using the Bible to convince Christians to support godless things.” Revelation 5:13 says, “Then I heard every creature in Heaven and on Earth and under the Earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, June 22nd, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Priesthood Restoration, Priesthood Restriction, and Revelation June was the month of the priesthood restoration, priesthood restriction, and revelation in LDS Church history. It serves as a month of profound historical significance for Latter-day Saints, marking both the commemoration of the priesthood restoration and the anniversary of the 1978 revelation ending the priesthood and temple ban. Rick Bennett of Gospel Tangents explores the complex history of how priesthood authority was first established and how it evolved over nearly two centuries. https://youtu.be/Tkc1j6r23s0 Don't miss our other conversations on LDS Faith Journeys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9pQpKe9CEk&list=PLLhI8GMw9sJ7WQNTJCyCO3U5D2fn7d0JF Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Restoration Shrouded in Mystery While the restoration of the Aaronic Priesthood has a clear date—May 15, 1829—the restoration of the Melchizedek Priesthood is far more mysterious. Historians have identified three primary hypotheses for when this authority was conferred by Peter, James, and John: June 1829: The traditional narrative, though it lacks contemporary evidence. July 1830: An account involving a nighttime escape from persecution between Colesville and Harmony. June 1831: Records from a special church conference suggest the high priesthood was manifested and conferred “for the first time” over a year after the Church was organized. This presentation relies heavily on Michael Quinn‘s research in his book Origins of Power. Forgotten Black Pioneers Contrary to popular belief, the early Church under Joseph Smith featured a “flat” authority structure where Black men were ordained to the priesthood. Pioneers like Elijah Abel, a faithful member of the Seventy, and Joseph Ball, who served as a branch president in 1844, prove that the “one-drop rule” did not exist in the Church’s earliest days. These men served missions and received temple ordinances decades before the restriction was codified. 1852 Pivot The priesthood ban was not a founding tenet but a mid-19th-century shift. In 1852, amid a legislative struggle in the Utah Territory regarding slavery, Brigham Young declared that “a man who has the African blood in him cannot hold one jot nor tit of priesthood.” This declaration marked the formal beginning of a century of restriction, often justified by theories—now officially disavowed—such as the “Curse of Cain” or the idea that Black members were “less valiant” in the premortal life. Brazil Temple: A Tipping Point The path to the 1978 revelation (Official Declaration 2) was heavily influenced by the Church’s global expansion. The construction of the Sao Paulo Brazil Temple in 1975 created a “dilemma”: faithful Black and mixed-race members were funding and building a temple they would be barred from entering. This reality, combined with years of prayerful supplication by President Spencer W. Kimball, led to the “hallowed and sanctified” moment in the Salt Lake Temple that finally extended priesthood and temple blessings to all worthy members. Moving Toward Unity Today, the Church unequivocally condemns all racism and rejects the past explanations used to justify the ban. The goal of the restoration remains one of redemption and connection, inviting all of God’s children—regardless of race or gender—to walk the covenant path together. Rick shares his theory as to why leaders reacted with hostility to interracial marriage as the primary motivation for Brigham Young to implement the ban.

You can be doctrinally correct, faithfully serving, and completely checked out of your relationship with Jesus — all at the same time.The church in Ephesus was one of the strongest in the New Testament — active, discerning, and uncompromising in truth. Yet Jesus had one charge against them: they had abandoned the love they had at first. This message from Revelation 2:1-7 unpacks the quiet danger of spiritual drift — how activity for God slowly replaces intimacy with God, and how Jesus's call to Remember, Repent, and Return is less a warning and more an invitation home.Whether you've noticed a growing distance between you and Jesus, or you're simply going through the motions of faith without feeling much behind it, this message is for you.In this message you'll discover:Why the greatest danger to your faith isn't false doctrine — it's a cold heartHow spiritual drift happens gradually through a thousand small decisions, not one sudden fallThe difference between being busy for God and being genuinely close to GodJesus's three-step path back to your first love: Remember, Repent, and ReturnKey Scriptures: Revelation 2:1-7, Luke 10:41, John 5:39, Matthew 6:21
