Khorasan is an ancient land that includes modern northwestern Pakistan, eastern Iran, and all of Afghanistan. “It says an army will come from Khorasan carrying black flags and then it says this: ‘If you see them give them your allegiance.  Even if you have to crawl over ice.  Because this is the army of the Mahdi,’ or in English, you can just say the Mahdi, the vice-regent of Allah.  So, this is one of their biggest end-time prophecies,” said Richardson. Sheikh Imran Hosein, a well-known Muslim expert on Islamic prophecies explained the US pullout in Afghanistan through this prophecy on his YouTube channel. “Afghanistan is the heart of Khorasan,” said Hosein. “What is happening in Afghanistan is validating the prophecy of Prophet Muhammad … that the Muslim armies designed to come out of Afghanistan, of Khorasan…no one will be able to stop it until it reaches Jerusalem.”  The Taliban see themselves as this army from Khorasan and the ISIS branch in Afghanistan calls themselves ISIS-K, K for Khorasan.  Given the unfolding developments after the US pullout, it’s likely Afghanistan will now become a magnet for radicalized Muslims around the world to join the black flags of Khorasan…

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Saturday took aim at President Biden over his administration’s treatment of Israel. “Make no mistake about it, President Joe Biden has turned his back on Israel,” Pence charged as he addressed the Republican Jewish Coalition’s influential annual leadership meeting. Biden has “restored funding for the Palestinian Authority, announced his intention to rejoin the Iran Nuclear Deal, and now the Biden administration is planning to open a consulate in Jerusalem for the Palestinian people,” Pence told the gathering. “This is an unlawful step and it’s time for Congress to act to deny President Biden from…

Earlier in the week, Newsmax yanked its own White House correspondent Emerald Robinson off the air, at least temporarily, after she tweeted a warning to Christians about a substance in the Moderna COVID vaccine that she believes can be used to track people. Robinson posted: “Dear Christians: the vaccines contain a bioluminescent marker called LUCIFERASE so that you can be tracked. Read the last book of the New Testament to see how this ends.” The word derives from the same Latin root used in “Lucifer” meaning “light-bearer” that appears once in the Bible to refer to Satan the devil: “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!” (Isaiah 14:12 NKJV) Robinson’s tweet has since been taken down and Robinson’s Twitter account was subsequently suspended. While the CDC maintains luciferase is not in any COVID vaccine, Robinson vociferously disagrees, and wrote an article titled, “What is Luciferase? How a firefly enzyme that glows might herald the end of the world.” In it, she alleges a diabolical plot by Big Pharma to hide the actual…

Abandoning education to progressives condemns young people to lifelong servility. For the second straight year, DePauw University in Indiana ranked last in the Free Speech College Rankings. Among admittedly stiff competition, DePauw’s students distinguished themselves in their belief that “disagreeable speech” should be suppressed. They also had the largest portion of students feeling unable to express their views on a subject. Along with this lack of free speech is the obvious lack of ideological diversity. And they are not alone…

It may be a war of words rather than weapons, but America is as divided as its been since the Civil War. We are divided, tired, frustrated, and fearful. The reality is that there is only one solution to the problem and it has not changed for thousands of years. We must humble ourselves and cry out, “Lord, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O Lord our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude” (cf. 2 Chronicles 14:11). Sadly, gun safes are full but prayer closets are empty—Costco carts overflow while fasting is rarely considered. We are angry but rarely meek. We are sarcastic and bombastic but rarely humble and broken. We love to quote the verse that offers hope, but we often don’t obey it: If My people humble themselves, pray, cry out, and repent of their sins I will hear and answer (cf. 2 Chronicles 7:14). We must wake up while the alarm clock is still ringing…

As utterly despicable as it is to sexually abuse a child, it is even more despicable to so do in the name of God. And religion. And the church. What could be a greater profanation of the name of the Lord? And what could do more lasting damage to an innocent child? In that light, these recent headlines from France, detailing the sexual abuse of minors by Catholic leaders since 1950, are beyond staggering. Who can imagine the real-life implications?
