Study Says Universe Will End in a Big Crunch in 20B Years

Last updated on: October 27, 2025 at 1:55 pm By Kermit Zarley

The Universe Had a Big Bang of a Beginning Centuries ago, many cosmologists believed that the universe was static—that it had no beginning and would have no ending. Both propositions were in disagreement with the Bible. It begins (to make an unintended pun), “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1.1 NIV). And the last two chapters of the Bible state, “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and... Read more

Trump Is Still Talking about Going to Heaven

Last updated on: October 20, 2025 at 11:41 am By Kermit Zarley

0 Comments

On August 23rd, I blogged about President Donald Trump saying, “I Wanna Get to Heaven.” It was prompted by the prospect that if he could negotiate a peace deal to end Russia’s war in Ukraine, it might be enough for God to let him into heaven when he dies. Now he’s done it again. When Trump traveled to Israel last week to speak to the Knesset and then attend the signing of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas to... Read more

An international, bestselling book has just been released in the U.S., five days ago. It is an expanded version of a book in Europe entitled God, the Science, the Evidence. Authors Michel Yves-Bollore and Olivier Bonnassies have presented in this book as a powerful, scientific case for the existence of God. An introductory remark about the book at its amazon.com page states, “After four years of research in partnership with over twenty scientists and esteemed experts, this book explores one...

Is The Gaza Strip Being Considered as the Palestinian State?

Last updated on: October 19, 2025 at 4:19 pm By Kermit Zarley

0 Comments

Making the Gaza Strip the Palestinian State Well, for 44 years I’ve thought this would happen someday. Today, The Jerusalem Post published an op-ed piece saying the Gaza Strip is now being considered for being made into a Palestinian state, Israel would annex the West Bank, and Palestinians living there could gradually be given citizenship in this expanded Israel. This op-ed author is Nimrod Koren, a PhD candidate in the Department of Middle East Studies at the Ben-Gurion University of... Read more

EXPAND GAZA, EXPAND ISRAEL

Last updated on: October 19, 2025 at 2:41 pm By Kermit Zarley

Experts say the traditional two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been dead for years. I propose an alternative two-state solution I call EXPAND GAZA, EXPAND ISRAEL. I believe the traditional solution was always a non-starter since it is based only on demographics. That is the most comfortable, easiest thing to do for Palestinians, but it is illogical because it is unworkable! Why? You can change demographics, but you can’t change history and religion. The traditional two-state solution... Read more

Celebrating in Israel But Mourning in Gaza Jews in Israel are joyful while Palestinians in Gaza are saddened by facing a devastating loss of homeland and about 65,000 people dead. So, there’s celebration on one side and mourning on the other. At least those Gaza Palestinians are relieved that the bombing and killing has stopped. But will this ceasefire agreement hold? And will Palestinians ever achieve their desire to have their own state? Signing the Agreement Yesterday, heads of state... Read more

The Palestinian State in Bible Prophecy

Last updated on: October 14, 2025 at 7:50 pm By Kermit Zarley

Palestinians and the Prophecies of Isaiah Just as the Bible[1] says repeatedly that God gave the Israelites their land, God also says therein, “Did I not bring Israel up from the land of Egypt” to give it land of Canaan, “and the Philistines from Caphtor” (Crete) to give them land of Canaan, too? (Amos 9.7). Yet Philistines disappeared many centuries later. And in 135 CE, the Romans defeated an Israelite uprising, demolished their nation, and forbade Jews to live there.... Read more

Yesterday, U.S. President Donald Trump said of Israel’s war against the governing Hamas faction in the Gaza Strip, “the war is over,” as he boarded Air Force One to fly to Israel to attend a signing today of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. And he said, “the ceasefire will hold.” Well, everyone hopes so, even Hamas. Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also said, “tomorrow is the beginning of a new path.” Trump’s Gaza Ceasefire Plan Is Working President... Read more

Government Shutdown Reveals a Divided House I just now watched one of the most stirring speeches I’ve ever heard. It was televised in Washington, D.C., by C-SPAN. Randy Irwin, president of the National Federation of Federal Employees, spoke for about ten minutes in the pouring rain, outside a federal government building, against President Donald Trump and the Republican party for their major part in the ongoing government shutdown that is now in its 12th day. Irwin said Trump is operating... Read more
