"Hypocrisy, Panic or Spiritual Warfare: What's Happened To The Left?"

"You gotta wonder about the hypocrisy of Democrats and media going wall-to-wall coverage over allegations from 36 years ago concerning Judge Brett Kavanaugh as a 17-year old, without any corroborating evidence, yet pretty much completely ignoring the allegations of recent abuse by DNC Chair Keith Ellison," writes Nick Arama of Young Conservatives.

Dr. Dave Janda of the popular  radio show Operation Freedom, chalks it up to panic.

"What the Democrats are doing is panicking over the declassifying and release of incriminating DOJ and FBI documents that prove there was a plot to frame President Trump with phony evidence. The Dems and Deep State are fighting the confirmation of Judge Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court because they know when he is seated, Trump will have another judge loyal to the Constitution and a solid 5 to 4 court. This means that criminals in top positions in the U.S. government can and will be indicted."

But prophecy expert Hal Lindsey believes it's end time spiritual warfare.

"One of the hallmarks of the last days will be the rise of irrationality. Romans 1:28 says, 'And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind to do those things which are not proper.' The Greek context here means God gave them over to a mind that cannot even think in its own best interest."

Because Kavanaugh is a conservative Catholic, Lindsey goes on to say, "I truly believe that one of the strongest underlying fears of the left is that a future Justice Kavanaugh's religious faith, if given the opportunity, will compel him to undermine the sacred cows of the left, like abortion and gay marriage.

"That means that his confirmation has taken on the earmarks of spiritual warfare, not simply a review of his judicial qualifications to sit on the highest court."

So is all the craziness over Kavanaugh hypocrisy, panic or spiritual warfare? All three. We have a rule of law in this country: innocent until proven guilty--not the other way around. Kavanaugh was convicted in the MSM and in the minds of the left before the hearing ever began. Whether you're Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal, none of us can be proud of what has happened to Brett Kavanaugh. As Senator Lindsey Graham said, "If this is our new way of doing business, then God help us."

In the meantime, warn your husbands and sons to never ever be alone with a woman--especially one who hates everything they stand for.

A wise man once said: "This is spiritual warfare. It doesn't have anything to do with rationality or intellectual debate. When the establishment comes after you because of your Christian beliefs, recognize that the source of that hostility is Hell itself." -- Hal Lindsey, author

"If the world hates you, know that it has hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you." John 15:18

"The Key To Happy, Healthy Kids"

Want to raise happier, healthier, more well-adjusted and psychologically-balanced kids?

If so, pay close attention to what follows.

A new study from Harvard's T.H. Chan School of Public Health comes to the same conclusions as countless other studies: Children who are raised in the church and taught to pray tend to do better in almost every category than those who are not.

The research, published last week in the American Journal of Epidemiology found that those who attended religious services at least once a week as children or teens were more likely to report being happier in their 20's than those who never attended by about 18%. They were also 30% more likely to do volunteer work and 33% less likely to use drugs or alcohol.

Those who prayed every day reaped even more profound effects, reporting greater:

• life satisfaction
• ability to process emotions
• forgiveness of others
• exhibited better academic performances

They were also less likely to become sexually active at an earlier age or to acquire an STD. And it works for adults, too.

According to the study, "Empirical research suggest that religion is associated with better health and well-being in adults. For instance, there is a gradient relationship between frequent religious service attendance and lower mortality risk, even in the most rigorous studies."

Benefits include:

• greater psychological well-being
• character strengths
• reduced mental illness
• and happier marriages

A wise man once said: "These findings are important for both our understanding of health and our understanding of parenting practices. Many children are raised religiously, and our study shows that this can powerfully affect their health behaviors, mental health, and overall happiness and well-being." --Ying Chen, study author

"Russia & China: Preparing For Nuclear War?"

This week Russia and China are holding the largest ever joint war games that will include simulations for nuclear warfare, according to U.S. Defense officials.

The drills, known as The Vostok 2018, have been condemned by NATO as a rehearsal for "large-scale conflict", and come at a time of escalating tensions with the West.

According to official Pentagon reports, "Under President Donald Trump, the U.S. has re-defined its national security and defense postures, and both documents point towards China and Russia, rather than terrorism or climate change, as the biggest threat to the U.S."

It appears that Moscow and Beijing have become BFFs and forged what they described as a "strategic partnership" in opposition to what they consider the U.S. global domination.

"They feel they need to embrace to deal with the increasingly high pressure and containment from the U.S., said Yue Gang, a retired Chinese Army colonel and military expert.

"For Russia, the increasingly robust alliance with China is particularly important amid growing tensions with the U.S. and its allies and a looming threat of more biting U.S. sanctions," reports Fox News.

According to Business Insider: "It's unclear how China and Russia may coordinate nuclear war, as they have very different models of nuclear strategy. Russia holds the most nuclear warheads in the world, and has employed them on a growing number of dangerous and devastating platforms. Russia hopes to soon field an underwater doomsday device that could cripple life on earth for decades. Also, U.S. intelligence reports indicate Russia is struggling with a nuclear-powered, nuclear-armed cruise missile.

"China, on the other hand, has taken the opposite approach to nuclear weapons by opting for minimum deterrence."

Any way you cut this "strategic partnership" looks like another prophetic puzzle piece falling into place. Even the name Vostok seems to fit. Vostok means 'east'--as in 'Kings of the East?'

"Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great Euphrates River, and it dried up so that the Kings of the east could march their armies westward without hindrance. And they gathered all the rulers and their armies to a place called Armageddon in Hebrew."  Revelation 16: 12 & 16

A wise man once said: " The kings of the east in Biblical prophecy refers to another sphere of power which was to arise in the world at the same time as the great Northern Power, Russia." --Hal Lindsey, author

"Sobering Stats: What's Killing Middle-aged White American Women?"

Suicides in the United States have surged to a 30-year high. This, along with an increasing death rate among middle-age, white American women due to alcohol and drugs, have U.S. mortality rates on the rise.

This turnaround reverses decades of falling mortality rates achieved through better medical care and lifestyle choices.

"This is absolutely a surprise to us. It knocked us off our chairs," said Anne Case, a professor at Princeton University who worked on the PNAS study that discovered the trend. "Every one's been stunned."

According to the study, over the last 30 years:

• Alcohol poisoning and drug overdose deaths increased fourfold in middle-aged white women
• Deaths from liver disease and cirrhosis rose 50% in middle-aged white women
• Suicides are up a shocking 81% in middle-aged white women

This alarming trend has driven up all-cause midlife mortality in the U.S.

In an interview on CBN, Pastor and New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado said he believes people are dying from a lack of hope and warns "Secularism sucks hope out of society."

"I don't want to simplify the whole issue of suicide--I know it's a very complex issue and I would never want to make it sound like there's a one-step solution."

But for people looking for hope, Lucado recommends the Bible.

"For every problem in life God has given us a promise. Make it your aim to get so acquainted with these promises that you can write yourself a prescription.

"God's promises can be that life preserver that's tossed to us when we're out in the water just giving us something to hold onto.

"God promises that He's with me forever, that the wages of sin is death but the promise of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. And we begin to filter all of the challenges that we face through the promises of God," Lucado said. "And remember--God is incapable of breaking His promises."

A wise man once said: "We've never been more educated and entertained. We have technological tools our parents could only dream of, and we are saturated with information, amusement, and recreation. Yet more than ever, we are starving for hope." -- Max Lucado

"Be careful! Watch out for attacks from the Devil, your great enemy. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for some victim to devour. Take a firm stand against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are. In His kindness God called you to His eternal glory by means of Jesus Christ. After you have suffered a little while, He will restore, support, and strengthen you, and He will place you on a firm foundation. All power is His forever and ever. Amen" 1 Peter 5:8-11.
