Call for URGENT action on extremism

UK - The war on terror requires the “urgent” appointment of an anti-extremism tsar, it was claimed today. Campaigners called for an end to politicians “tiptoeing” around Islamist fanatics. Think tank Quilliam urged all politicians to back Theresa May’s strategy, dubbed Prevent, which aims to stop extremism before it develops. It said we should continue with the Contest Strategy whose principles are “protect, prepare, pursue and prevent”. Quilliam’s Haras Rafiq said: “Enough is enough – we need action now and not tip-toeing around. The only way to defeat this type of extremism and terrorism is for Government and all British communities to unashamedly name, shame and challenge the threat. That includes the ideology underpinning it. It has its roots in Islamist inspired Salafi Jihadism and we must all admit the problem before we can challenge it.”

 
Arrogant Globalist Says He Controls American Policy

EUROPE - Arrogant globalist Jean-Claude Juncker, president of the unelected European Commission, lectured Donald Trump and said that America would not be allowed to pull out of the Paris climate agreement in a stunning attempt to control American domestic policy. However, Juncker gave a scornful speech in Berlin during which he asserted that Trump would not be allowed to get out of the deal.

The 8 Most Dangerous Medicines on Earth…

USA - Many “Western” medicines are made in laboratories using chemicals and are highly experimental, and worse yet, they’re never been tested on humans, except when they’re actually prescribed, applied, or injected into them. Humans are the ultimate guinea pigs in America, while Big Pharma pockets trillions in profit.

VATICAN - The Vatican, which under Pope Francis' insistence has strongly backed the Paris climate change deal, would see a US exit as a slap in the face and a "disaster for everyone," a senior official said on Thursday.

Plans Underway for Construction of Third Temple in Jerusalem

ISRAEL - Rabbi Richman, director of the International Department of The Temple Institute, says he is committed to rebuilding Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. Israeli Brigade Commander Colonel Motta Gur captured the Temple Mount in 1967. After the capture, he announced: “The Temple Mount is in our hands! The Temple Mount is in our hands!” Retaking the temple was important to the Jewish world because the site was where King Solomon built the first Jewish temple. When that temple was destroyed, a second temple was built, only to later fall in 70 AD to the Romans. Recapturing the site meant the Jews could have their long-awaited third temple.

Wilders: Koran incites terrorism

NETHERLANDS - Dutch prosecutors are looking into the speech delivered by far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) leader Geert Wilders, in which he slammed Islam as an “ideology of war and hatred.” Wilders says he’s being targeted for “speaking the truth.”

'We don't need embassies in Jerusalem - the world needs them'

ISRAEL - MK Yehuda Glick (Likud) responded to President Trump’s decision Thursday to leave the US Embassy in Israel at its present location in Tel Aviv, saying the move had little impact on Israel, but boded ill for efforts to forge a lasting peace in the region. Despite his disappointment with the decision, Glick nevertheless expressed appreciation for the president’s pledge to move the embassy, and said he was optimistic the move would ultimately be made. "The question of whether the embassy will be moved to Jerusalem - we don't need the embassies in Jerusalem, the world needs it. If the world wants to be relevant and connected to reality, they should move their embassies to Jerusalem."

 
'I represent the people of Pittsburgh NOT Paris'Comment

Juncker vows Brussels will BLOCK trade deals between US and EU states

EUROPE - Furious Jean-Claude Juncker last night lashed out at Donald Trump’s attempts to sideline the EU and vowed Brussels would move to block any attempted trade deals between the US and member states. In a rancorous speech the EU Commission chief accused the eurosceptic President of giving him the “cold shoulder” and ignoring the role of eurocrats in running European trade negotiations. Mr Trump has openly stated previously that he prefers dealing bilaterally with countries on a one to one basis and is not a fan of overbearing supranational structures like the EU. The Brussels boss said he had raised concerns about America’s apparent isolationism during Mr Trump's visit to Brussels last month, but that they fell on deaf ears. 

 
Trump to keep US embassy in Tel Aviv - for now

USA - President Donald Trump has decided to delay moving the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, despite promising to do so during the election. He renewed a waiver for a law requiring the relocation, as his predecessors have done every six months since 1995. The White House said Mr Trump would fulfil his campaign pledge but wanted to maximise the chances of a peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians.

'Dysfunctional' EU has plunged into existential crisis, George Soros warns

EUROPE - The European Union's “dysfunctional” institutions and austerity diktats have plunged it into an existential crisis that will require the bloc to reinvent itself to survive, George Soros has warned. The billionaire investor said the EU had "lost its momentum" as he urged policymakers to abandon hopes of "ever closer union" driven by a top-down approach from Brussels. He warned that a split among EU countries that began at the start of the financial crisis in 2008 had been exacerbated by "outdated treaties". After the financial crisis of 2008, the eurozone was transformed into a creditor/debtor relationship where the debtor countries couldn’t meet their obligations and the creditor countries dictated the terms, he said.

 
Indo-German economic relationship 

INDIA - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Berlin on Monday could not have come at a more opportune moment, with German Chancellor Angela Merkel having clearly outlined her intention to cultivate new allies in the east in the wake of America signaling its intent to withdraw from the world. Europe’s increasing strain with the US represents a golden opportunity for India, which boasts a rapidly growing economy and a robust democratic political system. 

VATICAN IN FLAMES

VATICAN - Plumes of dark smoke can be seen rising from the walled city, in Rome, as a fire rages near the religious site. According to reports the Pope is inside the Vatican, the heart of the Roman Catholic Church. Alarming footage from the scene shows black smoke pouring into the sky at a considerable rate. Visitors have taken to social media to express their shock at the scenes unfolding in the city. One person simply tweeted: “Vatican on fire”. Another said: “Possible explosion at the Vatican.” One eyewitness said they saw smoke, adding: “Then a few minutes later there was a loud boom and more smoke". The fire is said to be coming from a neighbourhood behind the Vatican, and the blaze is not inside the city walls. 

 
Children Now Face Fines & Arrest

USA - A regular summer rite of passage for motivated teenagers across the United States in search of some extra spending money has always been cutting the neighbors grass. However, teens in Gardendale, Alabama, and many other cities across the United States, are about to get a rude lesson in how government overregulation stifles personal and financial growth. Local officials and area law services have reportedly warned area teens that without a business license issued by the city, which costs $110, they are in violation of a city ordinance, thus violating the law, if they attempt to cut grass without a license. It’s patently absurd that local teenagers can’t make a private agreement with a neighbor to mow a lawn without the government sanctioning the transaction.

 
UN Chief: “Denial of Israel’s Right to Exist is Anti-Semitism”

UNITED NATIONS - The head of the United Nations told leaders from the Simon Wiesenthal Center that “denial of Israel’s right to exist is anti-Semitism,” the Jewish organization announced in a press release on Tuesday. Speaking at his offices at the UN headquarters in New York, Secretary-General António Guterres discussed the UN’s role in countering growing anti-Semitism in Europe, ending the demonization of Israel at the UN — including in agencies such as UNRWA, UNESCO, and the UN Human Rights Council — and obstacles facing the prospect of Middle East peace.

“Just what is an APOSTLE?”
Just what is an Apostle?

Today we find the Church of God in a “wilderness of religious confusion!”

The confusion is not merely around the Church – within the religions of the world outside – but WITHIN the very heart of The True Church itself!
