For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men [and women], who suppress the truth in unrighteousness…Professing to be wise, they became fools…And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Romans 1:18,22,28-32
See the girl standing on the far left in the above photograph? In the jeans and halter top? If she was in Gaza with Sunni Islamist Hamas members? She wouldn’t be standing there like that for 5 minutes without being assaulted violently by as many Sunni Islamist Hamas members as saw her. She would be violently beaten. Her clothing violently ripped from her and she would be repeatedly raped by as many Sunni Islamist Hamas members as were around. Then most likely murdered. Unless she vowed to become Sunni Islamist and become chattel, a slave to whoever claimed her as his own.
THAT is Hamas.
Satan sure is cunning, is he not? So many deluded following him, believing him.
The demonic forces are strong and growing stronger in America, in the West, and worldwide.
Time to gird your loins — in the Word of God, folks, really time to gird your loins and prepare, engage in the escalating spiritual war every person on earth is a partaker of.
Knowing the side in this war that you are truly on. No deception. There is no straddling a fence, no middle ground, and no gray areas, off-ramps, or hiding places in this war.

Relentless Anti-Semitism Spreads Across College Campuses
April 22, 2024

Imagine walking on your college campus, or the campus your son or daughter attends, and being met with mobs of angry, violent people shouting pro-terror chants. Imagine being threatened with murder and faced with vehement hatred simply for existing or being against terrorism. In a sense, you don’t have to imagine it completely because these absurdities are exactly what’s increasingly unfolding at universities.
Over the weekend, numerous videos surfaced of anti-Israel groups chanting obscenities. At Columbia University, for example, protestors were yelling, “Oh Al-Qassam Brigades, You Make Us Proud, Kill Another Soldier Now! Israel Will Fall! Palestine Is Arab!” as well as other cries encouraging the obliteration of Israel. Some of the protestors even went as far as calling for the murder of the counter-protestors carrying American and Israeli flags. After some were arrested, including Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) daughter, the “campus chaos” continued.
According to National Review, “Columbia University announced on Sunday that, in response to ‘extraordinarily challenging circumstances,’ it more than doubled its safety personnel per shift, enhanced perimeter safety, improved ID checks for entering campus, and added additional safety measures to the Kraft Center for Jewish Life.” Classes were also moved to an online format to better separate students from the danger on campus. And the university President Minouche Shafik spoke out against Saturday’s protest in a statement, “Anti-Semitic language, like any other language that is used to hurt and frighten people, is unacceptable and appropriate action will be taken.”
However, a closer look at what else occurred over the weekend proves Columbia is not the only prestigious school that saw such severe anti-Semitism break out.
On Saturday, roughly 500 protestors gathered at Yale University in the Beinecke Plaza calling for more violence while tearing down American flags. Allegedly, one Jewish student, Sahar Tartak, who was covering the protest as editor-in-chief of the Yale Free Press, was struck in the eye with a flagpole by a pro-Palestine protestor. She and her friends were singled out for their Hasidic Jewish clothes. According to Tartak, the university police and administration didn’t do anything to stop these events.
Thankfully, many bystanders are calling out the madness for what it is. One user on X posted, “Absolutely disgusting. If this was being done against any other people it would be global news.” Another wrote, “Someone needs to explain to me how this is even allowed.”
Even former Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones shared his condemnation of the anti-Semitism. In response to a smaller protest that broke out at his alma mater, the quarterback lamented in a post on X, “Never understood how someone or a group of people could have so much hate towards another. I hope behaviors & actions as such is addressed accordingly & allow EVERYONE to a Buckeye peaceful, proudly and SAFELY.” He emphasized, “This isn’t THE Ohio State University I attended.”
Several higher education institutions are not in a good place, and that leaves these universities with a choice to make: to continue feeding the strife or stop and reevaluate. Colleges like Columbia, Yale, and Harvard are increasingly producing students that publicly promote outright savagery against disfavored minority groups and engage in violence. We all have the right to free speech, but when that right is abused and used to justify the violence we’re seeing in these anti-Semitic protests, elite universities must stand up and draw the line.
The question posed by the user on X is worth probing. Namely, why is this being allowed in the first place? In comments to The Washington Stand, Family Research Council’s Senior Fellow for Education Studies Meg Kilgannon stated, “College campuses in America have become ‘global’ environments isolated from common sense, where people with a progressive worldview make and enforce the rules that students, faculty, and staff live out.”
She continued, “When that is coupled with a population of foreign students who pay full sticker price coming to the U.S. from countries which are at best hostile to the United States, the stage is set for very volatile escalation.” What we’re seeing, she added, is that “students are graduating from public high schools across the country where love for God, family, and country is undermined.” These same students then “matriculate to colleges and universities who accelerate that anti-American trend.”
So, why do universities stand by and allow these protests? According to Kilgannon, it’s “because they themselves will face significant backlash directed toward the university rather than the cause of the day generating the protest.” But then another question arises: How should believers respond to this madness?
For the church, who is called to expose evil and stand for what is good, Kilgannon insisted, “Christians need to stop writing checks to these colleges and universities, stop recruiting these students into your businesses, and stop aspiring to get degrees from these institutions. Ground your children in the faith.”
