‘Evangelism Is A Form Of Colonialism’: A Response To Efe Plange
File Photo
A few days ago, I read Efe Plange’s article, ‘Evangelism is a form of colonialism,’ published by City Newsroom, with some concerns. The article discusses John Allen Chau, a twenty-six years old native of Vancouver, Washington and Christian missionary, who was killed by the people of the Sentinel Island in India’s Bay of Bengal. The members of the island have been isolated for centuries. They are aggressive and hostile to outsiders who attempt to interact with them. Also, under Indian law, the island is off-limits to visitors. Following his Christian mandate to preach the Gospel truth to all, John decided to go to the islanders to share God’s word with them. John knew that he was putting his life on the line when he decided to go to the island. In a note
Humans Didn’t Outsmart Neanderthals, We Just Outlasted Them

We modern humans feel pretty smug about Neanderthals. It’s the story winners often tell themselves about losers: They couldn’t cut the mustard, they weren’t smart or tough or adaptable enough. To us survivors, there is a moral to the Neanderthals’ story: We’re still here because we played the game better, worked harder, made fewer mistakes. The Neanderthals were obviously not very smart since they went extinct.
But why do we think that? In science, there’s this concept called parsimony — the idea that the simplest explanation that fits the evidence is the one that’s probably correct. And evidence that Neanderthals
Funerals Have Changed Since the 1960s. Here’s How
The body of Aretha Franklin lies in repose at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African-American History on Aug. 28, 2018, in Detroit, Michigan. Family, friends and fans were able to pay their respects to Franklin during a week of events celebrating the singer’s life. The funeral itself was a day-long, live-streamed affair.

You know the image of a standard American, usually Christian, funeral: It takes place at a funeral home with attendees dressed in all black. An open casket with an embalmed body rests in front of the crowd. After the service, a hearse takes the casket to a cemetery for burial.
This was a conventional funeral in the 1960s, but this send-off of the dead has undergone adjustments over the decades.

In an interview earlier this week, End of Days expert Rabbi Mendel Kessin told radio talk show host Tamar Yonah of Israel News Talk Radio that anti-Semitism is a signal that God is accelerating the end times.
“We are very close to the end. We are looking at a messianic process that has been going on for quite awhile. And what you’re seeing now unfolding is a process that will bring the Moshiach(Messiah). That’s really what’s happening.
“What you’re looking at, in many ways, is an acceleration of the end, just like it happened in Egypt. What God seems
Christian-Jewish Coalition Urges Australia to Move Embassy to Jerusalem
A Song. A Psalm of Asaph. O God, do not keep silence; do not hold your peace or be still, O God! For behold, your enemies make an uproar; those who hate you have raised their heads. They lay crafty plans against your people; they consult together against your treasured ones. They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more!” Psalms 83:1-17 (The Israel Bible™)

Video: Angry Obinim Fires Prophet Nigel Over ‘Heaven Trip’
The founder and leader of International God’s Way Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim has launched an attack on Prophet Nigel Gaisie over his recent revelation that he saw Obinim in heaven in a vision.
According to Obinim, Nigel’s revelation was childish and does not make sense to him.
“I am not happy about it at all because it’s not making sense. This is childish. If I see you in heaven, I will ask the reason why you are here. Are you mad,” he charged.
Prophet Nigel, while recently preaching the sermon in his church, revealed that God’s spirit came upon him and he found himself in heaven where he met many people who are doing God’s work including Obinim.
In a video of the sermon sighted by YEN.com.gh, Nigel was heard admonishing his congregants not to judge because many

The mainstream media was quick to jump on news predicting the pre-Messiah battle of Gog and Magog, with many outlets misstating facts and misrepresenting the important theological concepts. But Rabbi Pinchas Winston, the victim of this “fake news,” saw the hand of God, using their errors to spread a true message.

Israeli Far-Left Holds Conference to ‘Ethnically Cleanse’ Jews from Hebron
Sarah lived 127 years; these were the years of the life of Sarah. And Sarah died at Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham went in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her. And Abraham rose up from before his dead and said to the Hittites, “I am a sojourner and foreigner among you; give me property among you for a burying place, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.” (Genesis 23:1-19)
