Each week we provide you with one of the week's most thought provoking articles. | | Time for an Israeli Strike?
By John R. Bolton
With Iran's hard-line mullahs and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps unmistakably back in control, Israel's decision of whether to use military force against Tehran's nuclear weapons program is more urgent than ever. Iran's nuclear threat was never in doubt during its presidential campaign, but the post-election resistance raised the possibility of some sort of regime change. That prospect seems lost for the near future or for at least as long as it will take Iran to finalize a deliverable nuclear weapons capability. Accordingly, with no other timely option, the already compelling logic for an Israeli strike is nearly inexorable. Israel is undoubtedly ratcheting forward its decision-making process. President Obama is almost certainly not. Continue Reading>> | | One that calls for a Response
Each week we take a meaningful quote, tie it to scripture, and leave you with a take-home. | |  PRESIDENT CALVIN COOLIDGE, the only president born on the 4th of July, said: “About the Declaration there is a finality that is exceedingly restful. It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we may therefore very well discard their conclusions for something more modern. But that reasoning can not be applied to this great charter. If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. … No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people. Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress."
GOD SAYS: “The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God. To comfort all who mourn and provide for those who grieve in Zion.” … “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” … “ So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” (Isaiah 61:1-3; John 8:32, 36).
THE JERUSALEM CONNECTION SAYS: There is a spiritual freedom that transcends all earthly freedoms. There is a guarantee of that freedom from the Word of God that even transcends the Declaration. Still, the First Amendment insuring our freedom of religion in the USA makes possible the broadest and most substantial expression of religion in the world today. Freedom of religion is non-existent in the Muslim world and it is fast diminishing elsewhere especially in Europe. If Jerusalem is divided, freedom of religion will be a thing of the past in whatever areas Muslims control. The same will be true in America if Islamic Shariah law is successful in its mission creep. Indeed, “Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress.”

Netanyahu's "forum of 5" is a group of advisors who the Prime Minister meets with weekly to discuss the Iranian threat. This is the forum that will ultimately decide whether or not to attack Iran.
