On today’s program, we cover the story of an unusual young man who served as a United States soldier in World War II. He read the Bible, and he believed the Sixth Commandment, Thou shalt not kill. He refused to pick up a gun. But he managed to get a job as a medic, and served in multiple actions in the Pacific theater. This is a story of a man who overcame terrible opposition and persecution, but remained committed to trying to serve his fellow soldiers by tending to their wounds. It’s a story of remarkable selflessness—and courage, both on the battlefield and off. It’s the story of the only conscientious objector in America’s history who received the Congressional Medal of Honor. Links Royal Vision magazine The Ten Commandments

Today we talk about January 16: God’s miracle day. God has emphasized this date over and again in recent decades. This date points back to a man who fulfilled a vital role in preparing for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ—a man who restored all things, and who preached the true gospel of the Kingdom of God to all nations as a witness. Jan. 16, 1986, marked a dramatic turning point in world events. We also look at how many tragic curses have occurred on this date—and why they foreshadow even worse curses to come, as God tries to correct the nations out of His love for them. Finally, we see how God has used this date to perform dramatic miracles for His Church, speaking through revelation and opening mighty doors of opportunity. Links January 16: God’s Miracle Day

This Trumpet Hour, host Joel Hilliker leads a discussion on children. In Russia, Vladimir Putin is giving children as young as 5 years old military-patriotic education to prepare them to give their lives for their country.

Trumpet Hour looks into what this administration is concerned about and what its extremely controversial solutions are.Then the Trumpet Hour interviews two men who just finished directing a summer youth camp here in Edmond, Oklahoma—a camp that uses discipline in a positive way to get some wonderful results!Finally, Joel Hilliker shares his own experience of a summer youth camp he attended as a teen and how it helped his relationship with his parents.

After decades of explosive growth, the Chinese economy is dramatically slowing down. Some in the West who were worried about China’s global ambitions are breathing a sigh of relief. But the trend may be more a cause for concern. In Canada, after years of Justin Trudeau’s gross mismanagement, the Conservatives are surging in the polls. But will getting rid of Trudeau really fix the nation? The root cause of Canada’s decline is not Marxist-leaning leaders. Germany’s alt-right magazine Compact believes America’s “deep state” was involved in the Munich Oktoberfest Bombing. This is just the latest example of German forces portraying America as evil and whitewashing German history. The trend is reviving German nationalism.

Turkey has long been a close partner to Russia, but this year it began shifting dramatically away from Moscow and toward Europe. The move is changing the geopolitical balance and setting the stage for some remarkable future events. A shift is underway in German society away from traditional values and toward a Babylonian kind of deviance, and the only political body ready to challenge it is the far-right Alternative für Deutschland. This is pulling the nation in two directions, creating conditions for a dramatic outcome.

This week, Gen. Michael Flynn delivered a lecture at Armstrong Auditorium in Edmond, Oklahoma, presented by the Philadelphia Trumpet. The Philadelphia Trumpet and its predecessor, the Plain Truth, have a specific forecast about the future of the dollar. Will it prove correct? Information platforms are extremely powerful. Most people don’t realize the war going on for control of these platforms and their users. The North African nation of Niger is becoming a geopolitical battleground involving Europe, Asia and other powers. What BRICS is, what it isn’t, and what it’s about to become.

As Arab nations consider softening their enmity against the only democracy in the Middle East, the United States government is doing all it can to help, right? Former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn spent two days visiting what he repeatedly called a “very special place,” the PCG headquarters campus in Edmond, Oklahoma. The general attended the finale of the Celtic Throne Irish dance production, before which he was the one receiving a standing ovation and after which he greeted the young dancers backstage, telling them with emotion, “You are inspiring this nation, and that’s something that we need right now. … Thank you very much, and thank you for your smiles.” He and his team dined with staff members and their families at Armstrong Auditorium that night before a whirl of activity on Monday. General Flynn, an avid swimmer, took advantage of the campus facilities, doing a poolside telephone interview with a local radio station before touring Imperial Academy, the PCG’s K-12 school, where he sat down with elementary students in their classrooms. He then recorded Part 1 and Part 2 of an interview with Trumpet Daily host Stephen Flurry (watch here), shared lunch with more staff members—taking time to chat with their children, walked across the road to give an extended lecture and question-and-answer session to Imperial middle- and high-schoolers, sat for a meet-and-greet and book signing with staff and college students, dined, then presented his “America in Crisis” lecture from the Philadelphia Trumpet to hundreds of members of the public at Armstrong Auditorium, followed by a question-and-answer session, book release and meet-and-greet that went into the evening.

For more and more American companies, the bottom line is no longer the main factor driving decision-making. Instead, they’re prioritizing radical social engineering and pushing various polarizing political policies—even when those policies cut directly into their profitability.

Much of Russia’s push against the global order is accomplished with overt statecraft: officials and troops brandishing the Russian tricolor.

Charles III was crowned King of the United Kingdom during an elaborate ceremony in London on Sunday. It was Britain’s first coronation since 1953, and there are some notable takeaways. Most notable is that this was a missed opportunity. China is breathing fire on the trans-Atlantic alliance, aiming to draw the Europeans away from their historic ally, America. Even more worrying is that some among Europe’s leadership are welcoming the attempts. The German government fears that Donald J. Trump could soon be back in power in the United States. The Germans are deeply concerned over this possibility and are actively preparing for it.

French President Emanuel Macron just made a stunning visit to China that revealed an intense desire to distance France, and Europe more broadly, from its longtime American ally and instead draw near to the dictatorial Chinese Communist Party. Among the world’s fastest-growing faiths is an ideology that is not a religion in the traditional sense. But when you consider the piety and faith of its adherents and the way skeptics are treated, the label holds. You could call it the “Church of Anthropogenic Climate Change.” This episode also examines a major aspect of human health and healthy living that is overlooked by far too many. This is an aspect of diet that can lead to a whole range of problems if overlooked, but that can bring many tangible benefits if followed.

President Donald Trump is in court. We are learning more about our legal system and the rule of law in America. Are we learning it too late? America shares much of its approach to its law, its ideals, its culture, its institutions, its movies with Britain, Canada and related nations. But what is it that makes these nations so closely related? And why are these modern nations related at all to a certain ancient people and their ancient faith from their ancient book? Why has that ancient book been such an enduring influence on America and Britain? Why not another book? Why not other nations? Is it more than a religious book? One fairly new institution is researching those exact questions. Meet the Armstrong Institute of Biblical Archaeology.

Among the most disturbing aspects of Russia’s war on Ukraine is its systematic theft of Ukraine’s children. But when you consider that Russia is a rapidly aging, even a dying society, this wicked strategy makes sense. Meanwhile, the evidence of China’s preparations for major war are multiplying. The preparations are happening on several different fronts and show that the Chinese dragon is very much on the warpath. China is not just preparing for war in its region. It is also successfully infiltrating a nation that is an ocean away: Canada. China’s tentacles of influence in Canada are deepening and winning the Chinese Communist Party considerable sway over the Great White North. This episode also examines a specific kind of attitude that the Bible shows that followers of Jesus Christ must develop. It’s a mindset Christians are supposed to be guided by all year long, but it is especially relevant at this time of year.

Financial crisis has hit the U.S.! And the government has initiated a major intervention in the banking system. Protesters take to the streets in France. Have we reached a turning point in the Ukraine war?

The nation of Somalia on the Horn of Africa is currently suffering the most severe drought in its history, and the crisis is exacerbated by Russia’s war on Ukraine and global inflation. Experts warn that Somalia could soon be in full-blown famine. The Chinese have long used a combination of anti-Western sentiments and truckloads of cash to win friends in the upper rungs of Zimbabwe’s government, and they’re increasingly using those connections to extract Zimbabwe’s resources, including lithium. Chinese appetite for lithium paints a dark picture for Zimbabwe’s future. A key factor in Russia’s war on Ukraine is the role of religion. The Russian Orthodox Church and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church are intimately linked, and the head of the Russian Orthodox Church is among the most outspoken supporters of Russia’s war. So it was a bombshell when investigators recently learned about this man’s political past.

The Ukraine war is going from bad to worse with Russia’s use of hypersonic missiles and rising death tolls. Why is this conflict half a world away so important?

Russia’s war against Ukraine continues to rage on. We’re now just past the one-year mark of the war. And this week, the Russians suffered more setbacks, which could prompt the nation to escalate. China this week put forward a plan to end the war. It’s a lousy deal that will likely embolden the Russians to further aggression. The reaction to the plan in one European capital exposes some dangerous undercurrents in the European worldview. Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Energy suddenly says that COVID may have emerged from a lab in Wuhan, China, after all. We also discuss a rise in attacks on refugee shelters in Germany, a major weapons package the U.S. is selling to Taiwan, a UK trade deal with the EU, Iran’s new cruise missiles, and the breakdown of South Africa’s energy grid.

A global war is underway, with more and more nations joining forces to try to topple the United States dollar. As this effort gains momentum, it has sobering implications for America’s longtime dominance in international finance. Vast numbers of people regularly escape into activities, like use of cannabis and pornography, that they view as mostly harmless since so many people are engaging in them. But using these kinds of things is deeply problematic and can open the gate to even more severe troubles. Growing numbers of climate crusaders are calling for national governments to tightly restrict virtually all aspects of human activity. They demand that more and more radical measures be implemented, including measures that are not supported by sound science. We also discuss an unprecedented decision that the American government made on this day in history back in 1872, which has enriched life for millions of people, and which has implications for us all, even today.

It was one year ago today that Russia invaded Ukraine. Vladimir Putin is passing the one-year anniversary by pledging greater resolve to escalate the war as much as necessary for victory. The latest report from the International Atomic Energy Agency says Iran is right on the cusp of achieving weapons-grade uranium enrichment. While Joe Biden was visiting Kyiv and pledging more money to Ukrainians, Donald Trump visited the residents of East Palestine, Ohio, the site of a massive chemical explosion. It was another sign of Trump’s rising political fortunes. We also talk about Russia and Iran being excluded from this year’s Munich Security Conference, China contemplating increased aid to Russia in its Ukraine war, Germany’s new defense minister quickly becoming the country’s most popular politician, Iraq moving away from trading in dollars, and China being accused of “intentionally poisoning” Americans with fentanyl.

Are demons real? Satanic themes are becoming more common in popular culture, even with young children. We talk about why this is something you need to watch out for and stay well away from. Artificial intelligence is taking the world by storm—from ChatGPT to health-care applications to autonomous vehicles. AI is also changing the nature of weaponry and warfare, and it could factor into the fulfillment of some important end-time prophecies. Coffee is enormously popular, and some people say they can’t live without it.

The radical left in Israel is creating social unrest and sowing chaos to protest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s effort to reform the judiciary. Lawmakers are even acting out in the Knesset. Russia was plotting to overthrow the pro-EU government of the former Soviet state of Moldova and to replace it with a pro-Russia puppet—more evidence of its determination to prevent NATO from expanding. Berlin’s 2021 election was plagued by fraud, and the city recently reran the vote. The results are a picture of the political division that continues to plague German politics. We also talk about America’s debt payments nearly exceeding its defense budget, Republican lawmakers warning that Iraq is a client state of Iran, China using a military-grade laser against the Philippine Coast Guard, policemen in Germany fired for Nazi remarks, and a horrific chemical spill in Ohio.

Transgenderism is swallowing our educational system. A 14-year-old girl in public school reveals the truth of how teachers are encouraging gender dysphoria, students are totally intolerant of anything they perceive as transphobic, and a whole generation of youth is falling prey to transgender propaganda. When the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline was sabotaged last September, it was unclear who did it. A new report by a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist argues that it was America. German leaders view this as evidence that they cannot trust America and that the NATO alliance needs to end. Russian soldiers have sowed deadly mines all over Ukraine, putting many innocent lives at risk. We learn about one man who is risking his life to remove them.

Massive earthquakes struck the border between Turkey and Syria, bringing unimaginable death and destruction, and potentially advancing prophetically significant trends in both nations. Russia’s preparations for a major offensive are reaching new heights, and China’s support is only increasing. Analysts say 2023 is likely to see a major escalation in this already devastating war. Migrants have flooded into Germany to such an extent that now even left-wing politicians say the nation is full and cannot take anymore. Tensions over immigration are reaching a breaking point. We also talk about China’s spy balloon that crossed the United States, America giving its blessing to nuclear cooperation between Iran and Russia, a new report showing that China has more ICBM launchers than the U.S. does, Germany contemplating the return of military conscription, and Republican lawmakers grilling former Twitter executives on the revelations in the Twitter Files.

Popular music today is full of very destructive messages—foul language, racial hatred, violence, perverse sexuality, drug use, flamboyant materialism, blasphemy against God, demonism. We talk about specific ways to tell whether the music your children are listening to is good. Meat is evil, according to environmentalists. They don’t want you eating steaks; they want you eating grubs and mealworms. Last month, the European Union introduced regulations that allow crickets and grain mold beetles to be processed in food. How soon before this stuff ends up on our plate even if we don’t want it? Massive earthquakes in Turkey have killed thousands of people, and buildings that were compromised by the temblor have continued to fall, killing even more.

Poland announced a major hike in its military spending, which would make it the biggest spender in NATO, as a proportion of its economy—even higher than America. It’s more vivid evidence of Europe responding to Russian aggression by boosting its military capacity. Vladimir Putin is rumored to be preparing a dramatic escalation in the war on Ukraine by deploying half a million more soldiers. Meanwhile, there are signs that Ukraine’s allies in the West are wearying of propping up this defensive war against Russia. We also talk about Israel and Sudan announcing the finalizing of a peace deal, evidence the Biden administration is compromised by Chinese espionage, European nations looking to Algeria and Libya for energy sources, France seizing an Iranian weapons delivery on route to Yemen, Turkey blocking Sweden’s bid to join NATO, and a county in California halting use of Dominion voting machines.

Nuclear war is closer than ever, says the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, who just adjusted the Doomsday Clock to 90 seconds to midnight—closer to the symbolic hour of global nuclear destruction than ever. What factors are pushing us toward the nuclear cliff? Egypt’s economy is in serious trouble, putting pressure on President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. This nation plays a pivotal role in end-time prophecy, and this could hasten prophesied political upheaval there. Canada’s activist Supreme Court is enacting far-reaching changes to society—legalizing cannabis and same-sex marriage, encouraging abortion and other leftist causes. How did this happen?

Germany has promised to send Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine. It shows the pressure that Chancellor Olaf Scholtz is under from other NATO nations and from within his own government. Still, it remains to be seen whether he will follow through. Russia meanwhile is furious at the announcement; some are even demanding direct confrontation against Germany. Yet analysts recognize evidence of a secret German-Russian deal. More Twitter Files reveal how Big Pharma crushed discussion on alternative COVID-19 treatments, and Project Veritas exposes a Pfizer official admitting that his company was creating virus mutations to make more money off of vaccines. We also talk about the IDF raiding a Palestinian camp in the West Bank, terrorist attacks in Spain and Germany, Iran working to establish a presence in the Panama Canal, China strengthening its ties with Latin America, and another bombshell revelation about FBI corruption.

The World Economic Forum, a meeting of the world’s elite movers and shakers, just convened in Davos, Switzerland, to talk about how to shape the future of humanity. We pull back the curtain on the origins of this shockingly radical and dangerously influential organization. A terribly disturbing story comes out of Atlanta, Georgia, where two homosexual men adopted two young boys and presented themselves as a picture of family bliss. They were just charged with unspeakable crimes against these children and have become a cautionary tale about the evils of the LGBT movement that society wants to ignore.

Germany just got a new defense minister, Boris Pistorius, a signal of the nation’s desire for greater military power and also of the determination of Olaf Scholz to preserve Germany’s relationship with Russia. Russia captured the town of Soledar this week in what could be a pivotal victory for Russian forces. And a Russian official warned NATO that defeat in Ukraine could ignite nuclear war. Japan announced plans to increase its military spending to such an extent that it would make it the third-biggest military spender in the world after America and China. We also talk about Saudi Arabia announcing its willingness to trade in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, Europe responding to Iranian terrorist provocations, the Church of England asking God to bless homosexual “marriages,” and “the most damaging spy in U.S. history” being released from prison.

Fake news is not the only aspect of modern life that is fake. We look at evidence of deceit affecting politics, education, social media, food production and other arenas. Artificial intelligence is making it easier to cheat. What are some reasons for the increase in fakery? Climate activists say real meat hurts the environment, so food scientists are creating plant-based meat, and now, lab-grown meat. Is this fake food healthy? Canada’s military is in crisis. Obsolete equipment, low recruitment and retention, low morale, poor leadership, and loss of identity and culture are all debilitating the forces. Fighting capability has taken second place to “woke” priorities like transgender awareness and battling climate change. Our Last Word exposes another dimension to the danger behind modern society’s assault on truth.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has appointed a new general to oversee his war in Ukraine, the fourth since the war began. His desire to bring the war to a successful conclusion remains elusive. Law enforcement interventions in Germany and Britain this week have many concerned that Iran is ramping up its terrorist activity against Western nations. The “Twitter Files” exposés keep coming, revealing more and more about how government agencies invented lies to smear Donald Trump and exercised illegal power over the supposedly private social media giant. We also talk about Israel’s government outlawing the flying of Palestinian flags in public, China trying to win friends in Western nations, Germans blaming climate change on capitalism, Lebanese protesting government inaction, and Gen. Michael Flynn having his Twitter account reinstated, which could have significant political implications for America.

There is much evidence that recent elections in Venezuela and Brazil were stolen. In both countries, the forces of the left are winning, and leftists in America and elsewhere are helping. In Canada in recent years, the number of people being given what they call medical assistance in dying, or euthanasia, has been skyrocketing. More people are being put to death by doctors than are dying of diabetes or the flu. It’s a devastating sign of modern society devaluating human life. Testosterone is an important hormone, especially in men—it helps build stronger muscle mass and bones, helps a man think and act like a man. Trouble is, men aren’t producing nearly as much testosterone as our fathers or our grandfathers did. Why not, and how can we correct this naturally?

Russia’s Ukraine war isn’t going well so far in 2023: Ukrainian forces destroyed a military base in the deadliest attack on Russian forces since the war began last February. Is the tide turning? Israel’s new national security minister visited the Temple Mount, provoking irrational outrage from the Arab world and the international community. Another “Twitter Files” release exposes how federal agents pressured and directed Twitter to promote the lie that Russia influenced the 2016 election. Meanwhile, an investigation has showed that Google employs 165 former intel agents in high-level positions. We also talk about Pope Benedict’s death and funeral, North Korea’s pledge to dramatically expand its nuclear weapons arsenal, Germans demanding their nation’s defense minister resign, economic trouble in Egypt, evidence that Democrats have been using Catholic NGOs to fund illegal immigration, and how the Prince Harry saga continues to grow even uglier.

Today we talk about January 16: God’s miracle day. God has emphasized this date over and again in recent decades. This date points back to a man who fulfilled a vital role in preparing for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ—a man who restored all things, and who preached the true gospel of the Kingdom of God to all nations as a witness. Jan. 16, 1986, marked a dramatic turning point in world events. We also look at how many tragic curses have occurred on this date—and why they foreshadow even worse curses to come, as God tries to correct the nations out of His love for them. Finally, we see how God has used this date to perform dramatic miracles for His Church, speaking through revelation and opening mighty doors of opportunity. Links January 16: God’s Miracle Day

Benjamin Netanyahu’s government has officially taken power in Israel, and though leftists are protesting, his agenda could lead to greater security and a resurgence for the nation. Tensions between Serbia and Kosovo are rising, and some fear that Russia could stir up trouble to increase pressure on Europe. Meanwhile, Croatia joins the eurozone and the Schengen Area on Sunday, a milestone in Germany’s conquest of the Balkans. A new report warns that China’s aggressive activity in the world’s sea ports and oceans gives it a dangerous ability to control global trade, or use it as a weapon of war. We also talk about how Twitter suppressed truth about COVID-19, a grisly mass shooting in Paris, another massive missile strike in Ukraine, high-level talks between Turkey and Syria, and America’s Supreme Court upholding Title 42 to curb illegal immigration.

On today’s show we look back over 2022 and give you a countdown of the 20 most prophetically significant events from all over the globe. Among these we’ll look at the strategic partnership between China and Saudi Arabia, the rise of the political right in Hungary and Italy, Japan shattering its postwar military constraints, Iran’s regime putting down massive public protests and advancing its nuclear weapons program, and the rise of transgenderism. Other important stories include Britain’s string of prime ministers, Germany’s military turnaround, the return of Benjamin Netanyahu, America’s midterm elections, Russia’s war in Ukraine and its many ripple effects, the “Twitter Files,” and the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope. We conclude with a few big-picture lessons we can take from these events as they show the urgency of the times and God’s hand in what is happening in our world.

More batches of “Twitter Files” expose just how much the social media giant obeyed the FBI. But a crucial aspect of these secret dealings is still being covered up: Barack Obama’s role in creating this corrupt relationship. Japan announced its intent to double its military spending over the next few years. Many Americans are cheering this as a hedge against China, but there’s an important truth they’re missing. The outgoing Democrat-controlled Congress just approved a mammoth $1.7 trillion budget for next year with the help of Republicans who apparently love the Democrat agenda. We also talk about a leaked EU document that undermines Israel’s claim to its territory, Benjamin Netanyahu pulling a governing coalition together, Ukraine’s president winning Europe’s Charlemagne Prize, Russia threatening to build up military presence near Finland and Sweden, and the “clash of civilizations” that erupted over World Cup soccer matches.

The Biden administration’s efforts to subsidize green energy in America are creating problems in European markets, particularly for German car manufacturers. Analysts say rising tensions could have a number of effects, one of which is a trans-Atlantic trade war. Ukraine is fighting for its survival right now. But what is motivating Russia to put everything on the line for control over Ukraine? What is at stake in this war for Russia? A very rare find in Jerusalem was just announced that illuminates a dramatic period of history: the first-century A.D. Great Revolt against the Roman Empire. Within a trove of Jewish coins was a silver half-shekel that tells a fascinating story. And we conclude by contrasting the view of Jesus Christ presented in Christmas with the one presented in the Bible.

Russia’s offensive in Ukraine is entering a more brutal phase as it grinds through its 10th month. The latest evidence can be seen in the city of Bakhmut, where the devastation it is wreaking is drawing comparisons with the World War I battle of Verdun. Germany is buying American F-35 fighter jets, a significant increase in its air capability, including the power to deliver nuclear bombs. Russia has been using Iranian ballistic missiles against Ukraine, part of greater cooperation between these nations deliberately aimed at skirting international efforts to prevent this. We also talk about the latest “Twitter Files” revelations, a major corruption scandal in the European Union, still greater unity between the dictators of Russia and China, European leaders calling for escalating punishments against Iran, and a military official threatening a mom for privately complaining about sexualization in her 7-year-old daughter’s school.

After many months of inconclusive warfare in Ukraine, Russia appears to be entering a more intense phase. Some analysts are comparing it to the way the North shifted its strategy in America’s Civil War. Has Vladimir Putin found his General Grant? Harry & Meghan, a new documentary series on Netflix, accuses Britain’s royal family of being built on racism and slavery. What is the purpose of this nasty and deceitful attack on British royalty and British history? America’s economic policies are creating towering debt, government dependency, climbing inflation and other problems. We can see where these trends are leading by looking at how similar troubles plagued ancient Rome, right before it collapsed. If you find yourself getting worn down by the struggles that often come with family life, I have some important truth you need to keep in mind.

The new CEO of Twitter, Elon Musk, is releasing internal documents exposing government officials directing what information to suppress or outright censor—a criminal violation of First Amendment rights and a tool of tyrants. Israel’s former prime minister is openly encouraging rebellion and sedition against the incoming prime minister, an example of the lawlessness promoted by the radical left. Germany broke up a far-right group that believes the government is illegitimate and the German empire is the true, rightful German state—a sign of widespread sympathy for such thinking. We also talk about Russia intensifying its missile attacks against Ukraine, Poland becoming a rising major military power in Europe, Japan moving further to rid itself of its pacifist Constitution, Saudi Arabia deepening its ties with China, and Trudeau’s government beginning to grab guns from law-abiding Canadian citizens.

The endangered mangrove finch is making a comeback. These finches prominently figured in Charles Darwin’s theory of “natural selection,” which underpins evolutionary thinking. But recent scientific breakthroughs show how misguided Darwin’s assumptions about these birds were. Today marks 33 years since the beginning of the Trumpet’s parent organization. It started with our editor in chief taking a courageous stand for truth. The need for such courage is greater than ever considering the lies, deceit, gaslighting and intimidation in America today—and the cowardice. We’ll take some inspiring lessons from this history. One wonderful aspect of God’s character is the fact that He is no respecter of persons. That means He is a God of true justice; He holds everyone to the same standard and shows no partiality or favoritism. We’ll see why this is so important and so worthy of emulation.

Russia’s war against Ukraine continues to rage on. And this week, disturbing news broke about Russia systematically stealing Ukraine’s main agricultural exports and selling them in global markets in order to keep funding the war against the very nation that is being robbed. Iran has been found to be behind some terrorist attacks in Germany. Germany, meanwhile, is shifting the focus of its military mission in Africa from Mali to Niger. We also discuss the legacy of Anthony Fauci, a worrying weapons deal the U.S. has made with Qatar, the Chinese government’s crackdown on protesters, another rough week for the royal family, and a disturbing trend in American academia.

Americans are crazy for football, for streaming services, for video games and other forms of entertainment, in spite of nation-threatening problems. We’ll look at the historical parallels with the pleasure-seeking in the Roman Empire just before that world power collapsed. China is experiencing serious protests over renewed COVID restrictions, and the government is cracking down hard. It is a sobering picture of life under a tyrannical government. Nearly 40 percent of American adults have gastrointestinal problems—bloating, acid reflux, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome. What causes these digestive disorders, and what can we do about them? And we look at what the Bible says about one of the most important questions there is: What is God like?

The “war on Thanksgiving” in America is taking the focus on this holiday off of gratitude toward God and promoting a toxic view of America’s history. We look at some of the true history about early Americans. Coordinated bombings in Jerusalem highlight an increase in terrorist activity in recent months in Israel as Palestinians contemplate the approaching end of Mahmoud Abbas’s reign and a turf war among terrorist groups begins. Russian missile barrages in Kyiv have knocked out power and water for Ukrainians in what looks like an intentional strategy to batter civilian populations into submission. We also talk about Poland looking for help from Germany, Iran beginning to produce near-weapons-grade enriched uranium at an underground nuclear facility, unrest in China over ongoing COVID restrictions, Germany bracing for a tough winter without Russian energy, and South Africa seeing rolling blackouts.

There is a lot of concern these days about foreign interference in elections. More and more evidence is emerging that China has been exerting significant influence in recent elections in Canada, including covertly funding federal candidates. Opioids are killing about 200 Americans a day. Researchers believe they have a vaccine that will lower these figures. But this solution overlooks the causes for this crisis, including illegal immigration, lawlessness and family breakdown. Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow, a holiday that reminds us to be grateful for our blessings. This truly is something we need to think about far more than once a year. In fact, thankfulness should be a daily habit. An attitude of gratitude can have a transformative effect on our thinking.

Donald Trump put an even bigger target on his back by announcing his candidacy for United States president in 2024, laying out an agenda that includes cleaning up elections, ending illegal immigration and curbing radical leftists. Russia unloaded its heaviest missile attack against Ukraine since the war started in February, a signal of Vladimir Putin’s determination to prosecute this war to victory. The FBI has opened a criminal investigation into an incident in Israel, a sign of the animus the U.S. government has against the Jewish state, particularly under a Netanyahu administration. We also talk about Britain dealing with its debt problems by raising taxes to their highest level since World War II, Russia’s trade with Japan thriving, the eurozone entering recession, an Iranian provocation in the Gulf of Oman, and a massive legislative attack in America on traditional marriage.

Sam Bankman-Fried is one of the world’s richest men, but last week, his company FTX collapsed after being exposed as a fraud. Bankman-Fried was a key donor to Democrats, and his political ties run strong. How deep does this economic and political corruption go? The outcome of Russia’s war in Ukraine is uncertain, and some say Vladimir Putin is finished. What does biblical prophecy tell us about Putin’s future and the ultimate outcome of these events? The civil rights movement improved conditions for black Americans in some ways, but it also created serious problems. We examine evidence that as early as the 1950s, it was infiltrated by Communists who used it as a weapon against America.

After Tuesday’s elections in America, several key races remained undeclared, leaving control of the Senate still uncertain. Plenty of evidence is emerging that the fraud and corruption that marred the 2020 election is taking place again. China’s president ordered his nation’s military to prepare for war. This comes at a time of soaring tensions over Taiwan and hints that an invasion is coming. Russia announced a withdrawal of its troops from a key holding in Ukrainian territory, another massive setback for Russia in its war in Ukraine. We also talk about Joe Biden’s reluctance to congratulate Benjamin Netanyahu for his election victory, the climate change summit pushing the senseless idea of climate reparations, illegal immigration soaring in Europe, Iran threatening Saudi Arabia for encouraging popular protests, and continued economic troubles plaguing America.

America’s midterm elections were yesterday. It wasn’t the huge win for Republicans that many were predicting, although many races are still undeclared. What did we learn about America? How does this fit with biblical prophecy and God’s plan for the nation? China uses strict authoritarian measures against its people within its own borders. But a new report shows that it has established “overseas police stations” in 54 foreign nations, in which they are cracking down on dissent far outside Chinese territory. Europe is moving away from cash and toward a digital euro. The centralization of power over buying and selling and commerce points to an important biblical prophecy.

Israeli voters awarded Benjamin Netanyahu a decisive mandate on Tuesday, returning him to power after 18 months of a left-leaning government, a repudiation of leftism. This could foreshadow next Tuesday’s elections in America, where polls show voters could deliver a decisive rebuke to radical Democrats. The potential for Russia to use nuclear weapons in its war in Ukraine has been a concern, and American officials say this has been a serious option among Russian military leaders. We also talk about a flood of illegal immigration from Albania into Britain, Iraq’s new Iran-aligned prime minister, more detail emerging about China’s man-made islands in the South China Sea, inflation within the eurozone setting the stage for a euro crisis, and the interest payments on America’s debt about to exceed the nation’s defense budget.

And it will be led by none other than a man many people wanted to bury permanently, politically—Benjamin Netanyahu. Nobel Peace Prizes were just awarded to three human rights groups. We hear from one of them—the director of a museum in Moscow for Russia’s oldest human rights organization—about their work in Russia against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine. Insufficient sleep has a lot of negative effects, and one of them is unwanted weight gain. We learn why poor sleep can put on pounds, and get some tips on turning bad sleep habits around. And we conclude by talking about why it’s important to be an encouraging person, and some practical ways to do so.

In Swedish elections, a party with far-right roots won the second-largest number of seats in its parliament, following the path of other European nations where politics are shifting right, a trend with important prophetic implications. Israel just signed a maritime border deal with its historic enemy Lebanon. Some say this is a new Abraham Accords victory for Israel, but there is much evidence to the contrary. Russia warned that it may target America’s commercial satellites that are being used to assist Ukraine’s defense against Russia’s invasion. We also talk about concerns over election fraud ahead of America’s midterm elections, how next week’s elections in Israel might play out, trade between Russia and China booming, the renewal of the Vatican-China deal, and the Biden administration continuing to drain America’s oil reserves.

The world is tolerating totalitarianism. In China, Xi Jinping officially secured his third term and appears set to be emperor for life—and one of the most ambitious emperors China has ever had. This week marks 100 years since Benito Mussolini overthrew the Italian government and began his fascist dictatorship. The nation’s new prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, heads the nation’s most right-wing government since World War II, and her party has direct ties to Mussolini. The former Soviet state of Belarus is dominated by the ex-Communist Alexander Lukashenko. We get a look at what is happening in this country by speaking with a human rights group there that just received the Nobel Peace Prize. And for the Last Word, we look at the origins of a bizarre holiday that will be broadly celebrated in a few days: Halloween.

British Prime Minister Liz Truss resigned this week after just 44 days in office. Conservatives say Britain will have a new prime minister within a week in an effort to contain the crisis. At the Chinese Communist Party summit this week, Xi Jinping spelled out an aggressive, even martial vision for China over the next five years, and is expected to secure an unprecedented third term as China’s leader. As America gears up for elections in a couple weeks, the Biden administration is trying to buy votes by making increasingly radical promises. We also discuss Russia using Iranian drones in Ukraine, Putin declaring martial law in the regions of Ukraine that Moscow just annexed, China and Germany making a deal, the United Nations pushing to make “Israeli occupation” illegal, and America’s worsening recession.

How much does God intervene in world events? How much has He shaped human history? We look at a couple instances of God saving the lives of consequential leaders and an example of God sending an apostle to the heart of the Greek Empire to teach them about Himself. God worked with a pagan king to forecast 2,500 years of history, and then shaped world events to bring that forecast to pass. He named another Gentile king 150 years before he was born. We see how He establishes kings and other rulers to rule in the kingdom of men. Though God has focused His greatest attention on His chosen nation Israel, abundant evidence shows His profound involvement in the nations generally. This makes perfect sense when understood in the context of God’s master plan.

One of the most wonderful blessings God gives to help us see past the bad news and negative events that are increasingly overtaking the world around us is a vision of the wonderful World Tomorrow that He is about to create on this Earth. On today’s program, we project our minds beyond the troubles of the world today and think about what life will be like just a few years from now, after Jesus Christ returns. We spend an afternoon with a family called the Tomorrows in a millennial city. We learn about urban development, business and commerce, land management, food production, animal husbandry and other aspects of millennial life. Above all, we learn about how keeping God’s law produces happy, healthy, joy-filled families. And we talk about how we can apply those utopian laws of tomorrow in our families today.

Russia’s war against Ukraine continues to rage, and this week the Ukrainians intensified their counteroffensive and took back a huge amount of territory. But in the months since the war broke out, the Russians have forcibly deported more than a million Ukrainians into Russia. This week we also saw that as America’s economic and immigration problems deepen, there are signs that some Americans are growing less enthusiastic about U.S. support for Ukraine in this war. Meanwhile, new evidence has come to light suggesting who was behind the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines. We also discuss former Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu gaining in political popularity, North Korea’s most provocative missile test in several years, Germany’s self-serving new gas deal, and a disturbing alliance between the United Nations and Big Tech.

All eyes are on Vladimir Putin as he struggles to find victory in the war in Ukraine and threatens to take more-extreme measures. His path is similar to the one trod by his predecessor, Joseph Stalin, and Russia is in many ways reliving its Soviet history. A new UK government-funded study has uncovered some shocking truths about the state of the family in Britain today. The field of archaeology aims to deduce truth from fallacy regarding conflicting accounts of ancient history. We look at an example regarding the period in ancient Israel from the Exodus to the time of the judges. For our Last Word, we talk about the biblical holy day of Atonement, which is today, and why it should be important to all of us.

Elections in Italy will bring to power a political party with roots in Italian fascism. We talk about what this reveals about the Italian electorate and how this could catalyze a change in the direction of the European Union. Western media have focused on Russians protesting Vladimir Putin’s military draft, but the Russian president retains significant power. He brandished it even this week by annexing major sections of Ukraine into Russia. Protests in Iran continue, but are they enough to threaten the Iranian regime? We also talk about the devastation of Hurricane Ian, the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline, financial crisis in the United Kingdom, a joint naval patrol between Russia and China, Iran buying land in Venezuela, and a plea for America to take practical steps to alleviate the world energy crisis.

Inflation is causing serious problems for millions of people. In Germany, it threatens to transform the country. Nearly 100 years since its hyperinflation crisis after World War I, recession and worse are projected. Is it possible we will see a repeat of some of the horrors of Germany’s hyperinflationary past? Extreme weather is getting worse, with nations worldwide fluctuating between extreme drought and heat and terrible flooding. Such extremes always have people looking for answers as to why. We talk about a dimension to this question most people are overlooking. Are bad habits holding you back in life? What you repeatedly do each day ultimately forms the person you are. We talk about how you can improve your health and your life by changing your habits. And finally, a few words about what you ought to do when you fail.

Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral on Monday drew a global television audience of 4 billion people, showing the remarkable power of this throne to unite the world. This points to an inspiring spiritual reality. Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a “partial mobilization” of Russian reserve forces into the Ukraine war and threatened to use “all means necessary,” even nuclear strikes, to achieve victory. Republican governors have been sending illegal immigrants into Democratic strongholds and sanctuary cities, and Democrats’ response exposes the utter insincerity of their support for illegal immigrants. We also talk about the Israeli prime minister’s first United Nations speech, Europe’s response to its worsening energy crisis, deadly protests in Iran, China facing serious economic problems, and the Federal Reserve raising interest rates and the dramatic ripple effects this could have throughout the U.S. economy.

Russia is sending significant numbers of schoolteachers into occupied parts of Ukraine to indoctrinate Ukrainian children with Russian propaganda. It is also deporting Ukrainian children to Russia where they can be reeducated. This is one battlefront among many in this war that exposes the true nature of the Putin regime. Tensions between Turkey and Greece are rising, so much so that analysts are concerned a second European war could break out. We look at the causes, and what biblical prophecy says about it. Tomorrow marks 160 years since Abraham Lincoln, during America’s Civil War, issued the Emancipation Proclamation, legally freeing over 3.5 million slaves. We take some lessons from this inspiring history. And I conclude today’s show by sharing some lessons from a man who helped build a president.

Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin met face-to-face yesterday, a strong show of China’s support for Russia despite the war in Ukraine, and reaffirming the friendship between these two Asian giants. As Ukraine forces make impressive advances, Russia’s military is taking a beating, and its reputation is too. Many are saying we’re about to see the fall of Vladimir Putin, if not Russia itself. Others say the chances of Russia escalating the war are increasing exponentially. Germany’s chancellor and defense minister spoke this week about boosting the nation’s defense spending and leading Europe militarily, reflecting Germany’s changing attitude toward its military. We also talk about Iran being invited to join the Shanghai Cooperation Organization; the FBI seizing Mike Lindell’s phone; a right-wing political victory in Sweden; Iran-backed militia groups, including Hezbollah, pulling out of Syria; and a really bad day for America’s stock market.
