Some World News In Relation to Biblical Prophecy ── May 28


In the United States of America, the new Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and his team have come to understand and realize that the U.S. government has been supporting the purchase of products that are NOT supportive of a healthy diet, and are beginning to make changes. (See: Zero Hedge - The 'N' In SNAP Means Nutrition).

Our hard-working and hard-earned tax dollars should not be used to subsidize families with sodas, candy ── or, for that matter, oysters and lobsters in my opinion! See: Spoon University - How Lobster Went From Prison Food to an Expensive Delicacy.

Our new government is beginning to take other steps ──  
WASHINGTON, May 14 (Reuters) – New dietary guidelines for Americans will be released before August and will be four pages long, directing Americans to “eat whole food,” Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. told a U.S. House of Representatives committee on Wednesday. The current U.S. dietary guidelines are 160 pages longer than those to be proposed by the new secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. … Kennedy has had support from Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and from President Donald Trump in efforts so far to phase out synthetic food dyes and to overhaul the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which are released every five years. … The guidelines are written by HHS and the USDA and shape federal nutrition and school lunch programs.

THIS IS WONDERFUL NEWS! Let us pray that more healthy foods will be encouraged and unhealthy foods will be discouraged. 

Sadly, it appears that the United Kingdom has decided to no longer promote healthier foods ──
UK government dropped health push after lobbying by ultra-processed food firms 

17 May 2025 

Government legal guidance urging retailers in England to offer millions of consumers deals and discounts on minimally processed and nutritious food was dropped after a lobbying campaign by the world’s biggest ultra-processed food firms, the Guardian can reveal.

Ahead of new regulations banning junk food promotions from October, the Department of Health and Social Care issued advice to thousands of shops, supermarkets, online retailers and other businesses to help them comply with the law. 

The guidance said: “The aim of this policy is to shift the balance of promotions towards healthier options – such as minimally processed and nutritious food.” This might include, for example, two-for-one deals, discounts or extra loyalty points on fruit, vegetables, whole grains, fresh meat and fish. 

Promotions on minimally processed and nutritious food would be game-changing, making it more affordable for families and improving the diets of millions. 

Pay close attention to this ──  
This Food Was Just Linked To Heart Disease And A Serious Brain Condition— And It’s Probably In Your Kitchen 

May 16, 2025 

If you haven’t stayed up to date on health news lately, here’s a quick headline for you: Ultra-processed foods aren’t so great for your health. In fact, studies have linked them to a slew of health issues including diabetes and cancer risk, and having a lot of ultra-processed foods in your diet can even potentially make you age faster. But up to 70 percent of the food supply in America is made up of these products, making them tough to entirely avoid. 

Still, it’s a never a bad idea to take a step back to assess what you’re eating on a daily basis, especially when we’re still learning about how ultra-processed foods could affect us. Case in point: Two recent studies have found an association between eating ultra-processed foods and a higher risk of developing heart disease and Parkinson’s disease. Given how life-altering each of these conditions can be, it’s understandable to have concerns. 

Our beloved anti-vaccine advocate and serving as the 26th U.S. Secretary of HHS since February 2025, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., ── of whom the Leftist Wikipedia venomously detests! ── has long wanted our peoples of the United States to realize the grave health risks not only in the above-mentioned anti-Covid vaccines, but also in health risks associated with ultra-processed foods!  

Yet, the U.S. government, with its various food lobbyists ── and Regulatory gaps in the United States put our health at risk. Our government has turned a blind eye to the fact that 1 in 5 U.S. children and adolescents has obesity.

Our children and adolescents are not healthy. Death rates in America have been increasing!

Our beloved Apostle Paul warned us ── 

“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” – 1 Timothy 6:10. 

Pure greed, not health, is what drives the food industry in the United States of America! Profit margins on ultra-processed foods are much higher than on whole foods. This is one main reason why a lot more advertising money goes into say potato chips, sodas, ding-dongs, ho-hos, candy-bars, Red Bull energy drinks, etc. and relatively little promoting goes into whole foods.

It is terrible that the youth in the U.S., the U.K., and, for that matter, Australia (In Australia, around 1 in 4 children aged 5–14 are overweight (17%) or obese (7.7%). Also, New Zealand (More than 1 in 3 children are obese or overweight) ── is consuming an overwhelming amount of ultra-processed foods. 

Satan the Devil certainly is using the adage “Kill ‘em while they’re young!” 

Indeed, many ultra-processed foods and unclean meats that the LORD God prohibits from being consumed are ‘good for food, and are pleasant to the eyes’ ── they are desirable foods to so many.

Brethren, self-control is something that true Christians are to have (Galatians 5:22-23). 

It has been calculated with the help of new and improved tests, scientists have determined that more than 57% of calories in the average American diet come from ultra-processed foods. These include chips, candy, soda, and ready-to-eat meals. 2

The negative health effects of eating such GARBAGE take time. Children, on average, will view on television over 1,000 mostly unhealthy ads annually! 3 

The LORD God’s living word comes to mind ── 

“Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” – Ecclesiastes 8:11. 

There are very personal consequences to consuming too many foods that are unhealthy for you.

It’s a true Godsend that we now have a government that is concerned and is doing something about it!

In other news ── President Donald Trump traveled abroad. He visited the Gulf States of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. (See: Fox News - Middle East trip highlights President Donald Trump's 17th week in office).

As long-time readers of the Church of Jesus Christ Online Ministries realize, and I have said it many times ── such as December 17th, 2024. Certainly, just as there were US officials who voiced their concerns that the terrorists ISIS were going to fill the vacuum left in Afghanistan after the idiotic U.S. withdrawal, there are US officials who are concerned that “Al Qaida is moving in.” The atrocious, terrible Syrian President Bashar al-Assad regime needed to be overthrown and changed. And ── as Mark Levin has said, and I’m paraphrasing here, we may not completely understand why President Trump is meeting and making deals with a known enemy of the United States of America, i.e., Qatar, and Syria, but we need to trust him ── surely he has access to information that we are not privy to. Mr. Levin said, “It’s possible that he (referring to President Trump) is playing chess, and I’m playing checkers!” Our Lord Jesus Christ tells us, “ …’ love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, …’ – Matthew 5:44. We, as a nation, are giving the new President Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa (former rebel commander of al Qaeda) the benefit of doubt. Certainly, because the U.S. doesn’t want Syria to once again harbor and equip terrorist groups.

As far as Sunni Islam, they have wanted to push out Shiite Islam influence by Iran for years, along with the al-Assad regime. THIS HAS HAPPENED! In late November 2024, al-Sharaa led HTS in its Deterrence of Aggression offensive against the pro-Assad Syrian Arab Army. On 29 January 2025, during the Syrian Revolution Victory Conference, Hassan Abdel Ghani, the spokesman of the rebels' Military Operations Command, announced the appointment of al-Sharaa as the president of Syria by the General Command of Syria.

Sadly, neither Qatar nor Syria can be trusted. A question can be asked, as does Steven A. Cook at Foreign Policy, “Why the U.S. Tolerates Qatar’s Hamas Ties?” 

The LORD had warned the kingdom of Israel then, as He warns the nations of Israel today ──

“’ But you trusted in your own beauty, played the harlot because of your fame, and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would have it.’” – Ezekiel 16:15.

President Donald Trump’s willingness to sell massive amounts of military arms to our enemies is consistent with what our LORD God has said. Notice also this latter-day prophecy concerning a final king of the North and a final king of the South ──  

“’ AT THE TIME OF THE END the king of the South [a confederation of Islamic lands] shall attack him; and the king of the North [a final United States of Europe] shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through. 41) He shall also enter the Glorious Land [Palestine], and many countries shall be overthrown; but these [initially] shall escape from his hand: Edom [which is Turkey], Moab [which is Iraq], and the prominent people of Ammon [or Jordan]. 42) He shall stretch out his hand [the ‘king of the North’] against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape’” – Daniel 11:40-42. 

The lands of this final king of the South are consistent with Islamic desire for a restored Islamic caliphate, which will certainly include the Arab nations ── including Qatar and Syria. 

Never just ASS/U/ME that the Sunni nations will remain loyal to the United States of America.

The Arab League has 22 member states.

And, Russia’s Vladimir Putin desires a greater influence among them ──
Putin invites Arab leaders to Moscow summit 

18 May 2025

Russian President Vladimir Putin has invited the heads of state and government of Arab League countries to attend the first Russia-Arab summit, scheduled for October 15 in Moscow. …

We intend to further actively develop constructive dialogue with the League of Arab States, as well as friendly relations with all its members,” Putin said. “In this regard, I would like to invite all leaders of your organization’s member states, as well as the Secretary-General of the League, to take part in the first Russia-Arab summit, which we plan to hold on October 15.” 

He added that the meeting will take place “in a difficult international situation,” referring to the “sharp escalation of the Palestinian Israeli confrontation” and “numerous civilian casualties.” 

The Arab League, he went on to say, has proven itself to be “an effective mechanism for multilateral dialogue and joint response to the challenges and threats faced by the peoples of the Middle East and North Africa.” …

Russia and Arab nations have deepened relations in recent years, … 

In many ways, the European Union has better relations with the Arab League than does the United States of America. 

God’s living word shows us that there will come a time when a final Catholic-led European civic leader and a leader of the Arabs will come together to make a lying deal ── 

“Both these kings’ hearts shall be bent on evil, and they shall speak lies at the same table; but it shall not prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time.” – Daniel 11:27.

The “kings” mentioned are the soon-coming final Catholic-led European “king of the North,” and the final Islamic-led Arabic “king of the South” – cf. Daniel 11:40-43). 

They will also be involved in a destructive deal ── 

“’ They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4) They have said, ‘Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.’ 5) For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You: 6) The tents of Edom [the progenitor of the Turkish people] and the Ishmaelites [Saudi Arabia]; Moab [think Jordan] and the Hagrites [they anciently dwelt in the land known as Syria today]; 7) Gebal [Lebanon], Ammon [modern Jordan], and Amalek [Turks]; Philistia [modern Palestinians] with the inhabitants of Tyre [Lebanon] 8) Assyria [whose descendants migrated to Germany] also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot [Moab and Ammon in modern Jordan] – Psalm 83:3-8. 

This end-time prophecy ── yes, prophecy ── appears to involve war and terrorism that will be against the United States of America and her Anglo-Saxon allies. □
