When God Doesn't Hear
and Told Moses and Jeremiah Not to Pray
“Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.”
Isaiah 59:1-2
6-29-19, Henry Morris, PhD -- People often complain that God doesn’t hear their prayers, especially when God does not respond in the way they would like. But He can hear, all right! “He that planted the ear, shall He not hear?” He even hears our thoughts. “Thou knowest . . . my thought afar off.” (Psalm 94:9; 139:2)
It's not that God can't hear, but it just may be that we have not met the conditions for answered prayer so that He will hear. Probably the most important of these conditions is obedience to His Word. “If ye abide in Me, and My words abide in you,” said Jesus, “ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you” (John 15:7).
But, “if I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.” (Psalm 66:18) “Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.” (James 4:3)
There are other conditions, of course. “Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering” (James 1:6). “Whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do,” said Jesus (John 14:13). “If we ask any thing according to His will . . . we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him” (1 John 5:14-15).
Even if we do meet all the conditions, however, He may not answer immediately or in the way we prefer, and He might even answer no. After all, He knows better than we just what is best for us, and He will see that “all things work together for good” for us if we truly “love God” (Romans 8:28).
First we need to check our lives in relation to His Word. Then, “if our heart condemn us not . . . whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments” (1 John 3:21-22). Source

In the Old Testament scriptures we see two examples of when God told Moses and Jeremiah not to pray (Deuteronomy 3:25-26; Jeremiah 7:16, 11:14, 14:11)... disobedience was the reason. Does it still apply in the New Testament? There are no examples in the New Testament of God telling anyone not to pray. It does report that God will discipline His disobedient people (Heb. 12:6; Rev. 3:19; 1 Cor. 11:32), even to the point of death (Acts 5:1-11; 1 Cor. 11:27-30, 1 John 5:16-17). We are commanded to be “devoted to prayer” (Rom. 12:12; cf. Col. 4:2). The born again believer in Christ Jesus is to look to God always for wisdom and strength to do His will, lifting others before His throne of grace, requesting He will intervene as we ask, for His glory and their benefit.

Handcrafter's patterns of knitted hats emblazoned with:

“CHOOSE LIFE”
Banned on Ravelry.com
6-28-19, Michelle Malkin - Following up on "The Unraveling of the Trump-hating founders of knitting and crocheting website Ravelry.com, I have received several tips from conservative crafters who have been censored or banned from the site for the peaceful expression of their political views.
The purge has been taking place over 10 years. One user, who goes by the handle “Deplorable Knitter,” sent me copies of the pieces that earned her the wrath of Ravelry since the November 2018 midterms:
The tipster saved screenshots of liberal knitters’ comments and Ravelry moderators’ messages to her smearing her as hate-monger for spreading God’s love, defending unborn life, supporting American sovereignty, and advocating American greatness.
Apparently to the unhinged and unraveled SJWs:
“DESTROY LIFE,” “SHOUT YOUR ABORTION,” “GOD IS DEAD,” “ABOLISH ICE,” “KEEP AMERICA MEDIOCRE” and “MAKE AMERICA VENEZUELA” would all have been acceptable.
However, “God is love” and “Keep America Great?” Heaven forfend!
There you have it:
“God is Love,” “Build the Wall,” MAGA, and KAG

FRANCE: Can Pres Emmanuel Macron Stem the Populist Tide?
6-24-19, The New Yorker -- France's young president is now Europe's most forceful progressive [leftist] Pres Emmanuel Macron who finished second to Ms Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally party who topped the European election vote in France, dealing a blow to the pro-European Macron.
Le Pen said she was “overjoyed” and called the result a “victory for the people.” She called on Macron to dissolve the French parliament and call fresh legislative elections, something Macron’s governing centrist party brushed aside.

Held by the Grip of God
"Do not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.” v12 “I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me."
Deuteronomy 5:32; Philippians 3:12, 4:13
6-26-19, * -- We are not here to work for God because we have chosen to do so, but because God has “laid hold of” us [John 15:16], but once God has placed His call on us, woe be to us if we fail to perform. Once the Lord has ‘called’ [2 Timothy 1:9] us, may we never have this thought, “Well, I’m really not suited for this.”
What duty we are to perform is determined by God, not by our own natural leanings or desires. Think of Moses and Paul; Moses said he wasn’t a good speaker and couldn't speak to Pharaoh yet he did [Exodus 6:28, 7:7] and Paul was a persecutor of the Church [1 Corinthians 15:9] yet became the greatest winner of souls for the Church.
We must remember to keep our focus steadfastly on God’s will and that IF we have been ‘called’ according to His purpose [Romans 8:28] we will do our duty. Every Christian's mandate is to give an accounting [2 Thessalonians 2:14] even if a simple testimony of how you came to repentance and were born again in Jesus. [Mark 16:15]
God's good news Gospel must never be watered down; but shared in its undiluted sternness. The depravity of the times doesn’t change God’s commands for the pure life. There must be unflinching faithfulness to the Word of God, but when we come to personal dealings with others, we must always remember who we are—also a sinner saved by the grace of Jesus; cleansed of our own sin.
“Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do…I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13-14

GROWING THE WORLD ECONOMY:
President Trump At the Osaka G20 Summit
President Donald J. Trump Will Promote Worldwide Economics
6-27-19, Osaka, Japan -- President Donald J. Trump will encourage others to follow the United States’ pro-growth, pro-jobs, and pro-innovation example. Pres Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin were speaking to reporters in Osaka, Japan, ahead of their first formal face-to-face meeting since a controversial high-profile summit in Helsinki July 2018 when Trump didn't meet with Putin over a disputed report of Russian ships firing on three Ukrainian vessels.
Trump was asked by reporters whether he would raise the issue of election meddling by Russia during their meeting, held on the sidelines of a Group of 20 (G20) summit, Trump said: “Yes, of course I will,” drawing a laugh from Putin. Trump then turned to Putin to give the directive twice, as he pointed a finger at the Russian leader.
“Don’t meddle in the election."

Northern Africa Nation of Mali:
95 Christians Killed by Islamic Jihadists
6-9-19, OpenDoors -- In West Africa’s Sahel region (which includes Mali, Burkina Faso, Chad and Niger). An attack in Mali by Islamic terrorists has killed an estimated 95 people, including men, women and children. While there are conflicting reports on the death toll, major news outlets reported “officials say 95 people have been found dead.” A contact on the ground in Mali confirmed that all those who died were Christians. Many of the bodies were found burned. A survivor of the attacks who called himself Amadou Togo told the AFP news agency: “About 50 heavily armed men arrived on motorbikes and pickups. They first surrounded the village and then attacked–anyone who tried to escape was killed. No one was spared–women, children, elderly people.”
According to a government statement, the attackers also killed animals and burned down houses. Malian security source at the site of the massacre said: “A Dogon village has been virtually wiped out.” More here

FaceBook Rules Against Prayer for Pres Trump
Calls it 'hate speech' - bans Graham Allen
6-26-19, CBN.com -- Graham Allen is an 11-year Army combat veteran turned podcaster and vlogger. His Blaze TV program "Rant Nation" addresses a number of today's issues from a veteran's perspective. Recently he issued a call to pray for President Trump and then something unusual happened with Facebook. Allen explained:
"I'm known for being kind of blunt in my videos. It's interesting that this video caught so much attention, because it was a very low-key video. And it was in response to some heat a pastor got for praying for President Trump when he attended a church in Virgina.
"And so, I just felt the need to address the hypocrisy of Christians being upset for praying for our leader in America, whether you agree with President Trump or not. The video was pretty much just if you believe that Donald Trump is this horrible, racist, bigoted person, isn't that the type of person that you should want to pray for?
"And so I made a video and basically captioned it, saying "Real Christians Pray For Everyone." And a couple of days later, I got a notification from Facebook that I had violated their community standards for hate speech. So they took the video down. They removed it. I got no appeal process...no anything. And I just found it incredibily sad that calling for pray for the President of the United States was considered hate speech.
"So that means people reported it as hate speech. Facebook investigated it and they deemed it hate speech."
When Allen was asked if he thought if the big tech giants were targeting conservatives, he responded affirmatively. See three minute video here

A Mighty Remnant
***
The Prophet Isaiah said: "In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of His people."
Isaiah 28:5
6-27-19, * -- There is wonderful news for every Christian who's discouraged by the apathy and godlessness in the United States of America. Regardless of how wicked and corrupt this society becomes and how many Christians compromise and fall into sin, God still has a mighty remnant of holy, separated followers. [James 1:12]
Christians may be deceived into thinking that Satan is winning the battle for the saints, and that the predicted “falling away” has touched all of God’s people. The Bible does predict that in the last days many will be turned aside; men will love pleasure more than God; the love of many shall grow cold; evil men and seducers will grow worse and worse; and Satan will declare war on the saints of the Most High. [2 Timothy 3:2]
It is also true that Satan is now going about as a roaring lion, with great wrath, seeking victims to devour. [1 Peter 5:8] The enemies of God are going all-out in an attempt to deceive and seduce every true follower of Christ. However, the truth is not all of God’s people are falling away! Not at all [Galatians 6:9]— and the Holy Spirit has a glorious and encouraging word for His Church. Currently God is raising up a multitude of sanctified saints who are standing against the idolatry of this age. [2 Thessalonians 3:13] They are so filled with love for Christ; they are ready and willing to be persecuted [Hebrews 10:36; 2 Timothy 3:12-13; John 15:18] for their faith and devotion. [Currently many being persecuted**]

The call of Jesus is to be thoughtful and clear-headed. Paul told Titus, “Exhort the young men to be sober-minded” (Titus 2:6). And Peter admonished the Christians, “Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit” (1 Peter 1:13, NASB). As materialism eats away at our spiritual life and compromise erodes our standards, Christians are called to get deadly serious about the things of Jesus. Peter further said, “Be serious and watchful in your prayers” (1 Peter 4:7).
Jesus does not want you to go around with a long face or a lack of humor. But he wants you to live like people who are soon to leave this earth — to be with him!

The U.S. Can Afford to Stay Calm with Iran
6-27-19, Victor Davis Hanson -- President Trump recently ordered and then called off a retaliatory strike against Iran for destroying a U.S. surveillance drone. The United States asserts that the drone was operating in international space. Iran claims it was in Iranian airspace.
Antiwar critics of Trump's Jacksonian rhetoric turned on a dime to blast him as a weak, vacillating leader afraid to call Iran to account. However, Trump supporters countered that the president had shown Iran a final gesture of patience — and cleared the way for a stronger retaliation should Iran foolishly interpret his one-time forbearance as a weakness to be exploited rather than as magnanimity to be reciprocated.
The charge of Trump being an appeaser was strange coming from leftist critics, especially given Trump's past readiness to bomb Syrian President Bashar al-Assad for allegedly using chemical weapons, his willingness to destroy ISIS through enhanced air strikes, and his liberation of American forces in Afghanistan from confining rules of engagement.
The truth is that Iran and the United States are now engaged in a great chess match. But the stakes are not those of intellectual gymnastics. The game is no game, for it involves the lives, and possible deaths, of thousands.
The latest American-Iranian standoff is not like that of 1979-1981, when theocratic revolutionaries removed the Shah, stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, and took American hostages for 444 days — and humiliated America. Iran fears there are now no such American liabilities. Forty years later, America has no presence in Iran. It has long since given up on bringing Tehran back into the Western fold.
There are no Americans in Iran to be kidnapped and no Iranian allies inside Iran to be saved. Iran has no leverage over the United States, at least not as it did in 1979. [..snip]
Israel has forged new ties with China, Russia, and the European Union, and renewed its traditionally close relationship with the United States. Iran's neighbors in the Arab world are either in a mess or clandestinely allied with Israel. The Palestinian Authority and Hamas have never been weaker vis-a-vis Israel.
Time is on the American side. Each day Iran grows weaker and poorer, and the U.S. stronger and richer. [..]
If Tehran preemptively attacks an American ship or plane, it will be met by a disproportionate response, preferably one aimed not at civilian infrastructure, but at the Iranian military hierarchy, the Revolutionary Guard and the theocratic elite.
Otherwise, the Trump administration can sit back and monitor Iran's international ostracism and economic isolation while remaining unpredictable and enigmatic, ready to hit back hard at any attack on Americans but without being suckered into an optional war with Iran in the perennial Middle East quagmire.

6-27-19, Victor Davis Hanson -- President Trump recently ordered and then called off a retaliatory strike against Iran for destroying a U.S. surveillance drone. The United States asserts that the drone was operating in international space. Iran claims it was in Iranian airspace.
Antiwar critics of Trump's Jacksonian rhetoric turned on a dime to blast him as a weak, vacillating leader afraid to call Iran to account. However, Trump supporters countered that the president had shown Iran a final gesture of patience — and cleared the way for a stronger retaliation should Iran foolishly interpret his one-time forbearance as a weakness to be exploited rather than as magnanimity to be reciprocated.
The charge of Trump being an appeaser was strange coming from leftist critics, especially given Trump's past readiness to bomb Syrian President Bashar al-Assad for allegedly using chemical weapons, his willingness to destroy ISIS through enhanced air strikes, and his liberation of American forces in Afghanistan from confining rules of engagement.
The truth is that Iran and the United States are now engaged in a great chess match. But the stakes are not those of intellectual gymnastics. The game is no game, for it involves the lives, and possible deaths, of thousands.

USA & Arab States Summit Economic Workshop to be Hosted by Bahrain, June 25-26, 2019
Follow-up 6-27-19 Israel Not Invited
The US White House released the plan to be workshopped—“Peace to Prosperity—the Economic Plan: A New Vision for the Palestinian People” - While the guest list for the workshop includes top diplomats, officials and business people from a host of nations—including Arab states such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Qatar, Jordan and Morocco—there will be no government representation from the two entities under discussion: Israel and the Palestinians.The reason for the conspicuous absence? Ever since Pres Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, the Palestinians have vowed to shun all Trump’s future efforts for peace, including rejecting the “Deal of the Century” outright before knowing what it entails and boycotting attendance of the Bahrain economic workshop.
Therefore, Bahrain subsequently decided to exclude Israel from the list of invitees in a bid to level the playing field. More here

Follow-Up, 6-18-19:
Israel expected to attend U.S.-led Bahrain conference:
The United States has billed the gathering in Bahrain as a workshop to boost the Palestinian economy in Israel as part of a broader effort by Pres Trump's peace plan for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Reportedly Israelis will participate in the June 25-26, 2019 workshop; while sources claim that Israel is expected to send a business delegation only; the Palestinians report they will boycott.

6-4-19, Front Page -- It is apparent what the Gulf states cozying up to Israel and Jews has do with existential interests. Iran is clearly seen as a major threat to the Gulf kingdoms and to Saudi Arabia in particular. The close relations between Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu and the US President Trump render Israel an asset. However, we shouldn't overlook the Saudi Crown Prince, Mohammad bin Salman’s efforts to modernize his kingdom and loosen the social strictures imposed by the Wahhabi religious establishment. [..snip]
The bottom line is that the Islamic Gulf states have a lot to gain from warm relations with the Jewish state of Israel and an open and formal relationship. They could invest in Israel’s innovative industries and take advantage of Israel’s renowned high-tech sector. Israel’s environmental innovations could address the challenges of their water shortages. Similarly, the Gulf states student population could benefit from Israel’s world-class universities. Tourism is an area that could benefit both parties. The U.S. is in a strong position to make the existing détente into a full fledge relationship between the Gulf states and Israel. More here

Dementia Risk Increased With Prescribed Drugs
6-25-19, (CNN) – Scientists have found a link between certain drugs and increased dementia risk. A study published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine reports the link is strongest with certain classes of anticholinergic drugs: antidepressants such as paroxetine or amitriptyline, bladder antimuscarinics such as oxybutynin or tolterodine, antipsychotics such as chlorpromazine or olanzapine and antiepileptic drugs such as oxcarbazepine or carbamazepine. Researchers wrote that “there was nearly a 50% increased odds of dementia.” More here from JAMA

Obama-era cash traced to Iran-backed terrorists
2-7-18, WashTimes - The U.S. govt traced some of the $1.7 billion released to Iran by the Obama admin to Iranian-backed terrorists in the two years since the cash was transferred. According to knowledgeable sources, Iran has used the funds to pay its main proxy, the Lebanon-based terrorist group Hezbollah, along with the Quds Force, Iran’s main foreign intelligence and covert action arm and element of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. The U.S. money supplied to Iran as part of an arms settlement dating back to the 1970s also has been traced to Iran’s backing of Houthi rebels seeking to take power in Yemen.

In order to beat Trump in 2020, Democrats must practice modesty
6-14-19, WashPost -- Democrats must make amends with the 402 other counties that voted for Trump after voting for Obama at least once. This will require the Democrats’ progressive lions to lay down with the Democrats’ moderate lambs, a spectacle as biblical as it is inimical to progressives’ pride about their wokeness [aware of social justice issues]. One imagines that, sooner rather than later, even Democrats will come to suspect that denigrating people until they vote for you lacks a certain strategic plausibility.” [Yes, that irredeemable deplorable claim by Mrs Clinton was quite an outrageous denigration of Trump voters that backfired in a big way.]

Disciples and Servants
“The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his Lord.”
Matthew 10:24; John 17:17; Deuteronomy 5:33; Proverbs 3:5-6
6-18-19, Henry Morris, PhD -- Note the twofold relation of the believer to the Lord Jesus Christ; we are His disciples and servants. He is our Master and Lord. Each of the two relationships is vital. The word for “disciple” means “pupil.”
The word “master” is the same as “teacher.” The Lord Jesus, therefore, is our teacher and He teaches us through His Word—the Holy Scriptures. It is our function and responsibility to learn His teachings and, of course, to believe and obey them. No Christian (one under the authority of Christ) has the right to reject or even to question one of the teachings of His Word (Matthew 5:18-19).
The lord-servant relationship goes even further. The word for “servant” is actually “bond slave” [1 Corinthians 7:22]. The “lord” of a slave was his owner; the word itself means “supreme ruler” and is the title commonly assigned to God Himself in the New Testament. Thus, a disciple is to believe the word of his master Jesus without question or hesitation.
We are to go into the world with His teachings. “As my Father hath sent Me, even so send I you” (John 20:21). “As thou hast sent Me into the world,” He prayed, “even so have I also sent them into the world” (John 17:18).
He does warn us: “Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also.” (John 15:20) Source

Turkey Dictator, Erdogan's Opposition Wins Election
- Turkey sees political tension after Erdogan's opposition wins in Istanbul
6-23-19, Fox News -- Turkey: “Thank you, Istanbul,” Ekrem Imamoglu, 49, said to the tens of thousands of people who gathered to mark his victory after unofficial results showed he won a clear majority - 54 percent to 45 percent of the vote in a closely watched repeat election that ended weeks of political tension. A tense political situation may be brewing in Turkey after the opposition candidate for mayor of Istanbul won Sunday, June 23, 2019, breaking the long hold President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s party had on leading Turkey’s largest city. - Turkey: Key facts in Istanbul’s rerun election
6-23-19, Miami Herald· The repeat mayoral election in Istanbul took place because Turkey's electoral board ordered a rerun ... Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, weakened by an opposition party’s landslide victory in Istanbul’s repeat election, scrambled to reassert his standing as the country’s most dominant politician in half a century by refocusing attention on a crucial trip to Asia. Losing Istanbul was much more than ceding control of Turkey’s largest city and commercial powerhouse. The mayor’s job was the springboard for Erdogan’s own political career. If Imamoglu, 49, performs well, then the president -- Turkey’s most influential leader since the modern republic’s founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk -- may find himself with a future challenger.

Trump Family Has 50+ Year History of Donating to Jewish, Israeli Causes
11-21-16, Israel Breaking News -- In years past, the Israeli media reported several important donations made by both the late Fred Trump and his son, Donald John Trump. [Many speculated that the Trump family was Jewish*]
As reported by the recipient, in 1956 real estate developer Fredrick Trump donated the land for the Talmud Torah of the Beach Haven Jewish Center at 723 Ave. Z in Flatbush, New York [1]. The center is currently open offering programs for Jewish youth and the elderly, as well as an active synagogue.

Effie Stenzler, former chairman of the Jewish National Fund [JNF] told Yediot Ahronot [2], that JNF approached Trump, among other wealthy supporters of Israel, for funds to build an infrastructure for new communities for the Jews who had been expelled from their homes - by their own government - that Fred’s son, Donald John Trump donated heavily:
1.in the 1980s Donald donated to help build new infrastructure for the Israelis removed from the northern Sinai by the Begin government, who returned the peninsula to Egypt as part of the peace agreement.
2.in 2005, Trump gave to help resettle the Jews of Gush Katif in the Gaza Strip, exiled by the Ariel Sharon government.
3. According to Yedioth Ahronoth, Trump’s name appears on a plaque honoring the donors in the Hevel Shalom region, that absorbed evacuees from the Sinai and Gaza. While the exact figure of Trump’s donation for settlement evacuees is not cited, it is estimated to amount to millions of Israeli shekels. [6-25-19 Conversion: one million shekels = $278,280.00 USD]

*The Odd Reason Why Many Believed that Donald Trump's Father Was Jewish...
6-25-19, Donald Trump is not Jewish nor does he have Jewish ancestry. His father, Fred, was a Lutheran and his Scottish-born mother a Presbyterian. However, their affinity for Jews was also espoused by Fred Trump Jr., Donald Trump's older brother, who joined a Jewish fraternity. [..] Though Fred Jr.’s claim to be Jewish has never been taken seriously, the president does have a family connection to Judaism. His daughter, Ivanka converted to Judaism in 2009 before marrying Jared Kushner, an Orthodox Jew. Ivanka (her Hebrew name is Yael) has said that her father supported her decision to convert “from day one”, adding that he has “tremendous respect” for the Jewish religion.

The United States of America Has Become Pagan and is Due for the Lord’s Punishment Due to the Shedding of Innocent Blood
Pharaoh killed Jewish babies …drowned them in the river; Pharaoh was drowned. Sodom and Gomorrah was hit with fire & brimstone. Americans are also guilty ... what method of punishment will God administer to the USA?
Exodus 1:8, 15-17, 2:11-15; Proverbs 6:17
6-25-19, * -- God will judge and punish America for shedding innocent blood in the murdering newborn babies. Abortion is the shedding of innocent, human blood; God's word has much to say about it.
Those who enable or engage in killing the innocent will be held accountable. Pharaoh drowned Jewish babies; then 40 years later he and his army drowned chasing the Jews out of Egypt.
How will the USA's judgment come?
Scientists have speculated that a colossal ‘mega-tsunami’ could easily come to the east coast of the USA by Spain’s Canary Island volcano “Cumbre Vieja.” They believe wave will hit with the power of an atomic bomb travelling at the speed of a jumbo jet. Starting off at 2000 ft, the giant wave will still be 150 ft high by the time it reaches the other side of the Atlantic, destroying everything in its wake and affecting up to 100 million people.

God's word condemns the shedding of innocent blood:
1. Exodus 20:13 Thou shalt not kill.” 23:7 “Have nothing to do with a false charge and do not put an innocent or honest person to death, for I will not acquit the guilty.”
2. Deuteronomy 19:13 “Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with thee. 27:25 “Cursed is anyone who accepts a bribe to kill an innocent person.”

Women Aren't "Women" Anymore
Some Young Men Rather Never Having Sex Again Than to Saddle Themselves with a raging militant feminist
Promiscuity, sex outside of marriage, depravity and feminism causing men to abstain from marriage - many women are too free with their 'intimacy' yet bossy and unpleasant - why should men marry them? Jeremiah 6:15; Hebrews 13:4
6-24-19, Pew Research Center report that fewer young men are seeking marriage, while the desire to get married among young women is rising. Since 1997, aspirations for wedded bliss has risen from 28 to 37 percent among young women while young men's has lowered to 29 percent from 35 percent. Apparently, the cause of the switch is the strengthening of feminism and the feeling that a man's place in the world is being diminished. Proverbs 21:9
The increased independence of modern day women and some of the older laws that were put in place to protect women in the event of divorce as they generally not the breadwinners (such as alimony) has created a shift in the balance between male and female partners in favor of the female. Men are often required to pay child support yet are not permitted to see their children.
As for sex, there are multiple ideas with some opting to never have sex again. Marriage and parenthood don't necessarily go hand in hand for Millenials, and this could be partially explained by the high divorce rates their parents suffered.
Women are achieving without their male counterparts, it spells doom for the future of marriage, as men are not allowed to fulfill what is in their nature - heading a household by providing for, and protecting, wives and children. Marriage rates are soon expected to dip below the halfway mark. Clearly with the increase of women desiring marriage shows that their worldly achievements have left them unfulfilled. Sad. More here

Some officials aren't so sure about not worrying after the 66 footer hit Russia in 2013. God said He'd send signs in the heavens and the earth.

We must remember that one thousand years are like one day to God (Psalm 90:4; 2 Peter 3:8). The rapture will happen without warning at any time and believers in the Lord Jesus must be ready at all time.

Matthew 14:3-11; Mark 6:14-29; Luke 9:7-9

✝️ 6-9-20, The Lord □ Jesus explained to Nicodemus that he must be 'born again' [John 3.3, 7]. In Utah I've heard some LDS people scoff and ridicule believers in Christ who are 'born again.'

✝️ 6-8-20, Jesus is God; He came to save sinners. “For He [Jesus] Whom God sent speaks the words of God: The Father loves the Son & has given all things into His hand.
