War against the Iranian Regime continues to dominate world news (United Nations – “‘Clock is ticking’: Hormuz disruption raises fears of global food crisis”).
There certainly can be many unforeseen ramifications due to a closed Strait of Hormuz. Europe, of course, is concerned ── now.
April 17, 2026Europe to accelerate effort to secure Hormuz despite Trump’s order to stay awayMore than 30 leaders joined a video conference call on Friday to map out an international mission to secure the Strait of Hormuz.PARIS — European leaders pledged to rapidly ramp up a multinational effort to secure the Strait of Hormuz after Iran said it would reopen the vital waterway to maritime traffic, even if Donald Trump doesn’t want their help.French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and the prime ministers of Italy and the United Kingdom, Giorgia Meloni and Keir Starmer, jointly announced Friday that they would be spearheading what Starmer called a “defensive” mission to ensure freedom of navigation in the strait, through which a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas travels. …After announcing that Tehran had agreed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz following Israel and Lebanon’s agreement on a 10-day ceasefire, Trump wrote Friday on his Truth Social account that his NATO allies were “useless” and weren’t needed.“I received a call from NATO asking if we would need some help. I TOLD THEM TO STAY AWAY, UNLESS THEY JUST WANT TO LOAD UP THEIR SHIPS WITH OIL,” he wrote. …After the meeting in Paris on Friday, which included leaders from more than two dozen countries via videoconference, Meloni offered to deploy Italian frigates to the region. Germany on Thursday said it would contribute minesweepers.“It’s going in the right direction, even if the opening of Hormuz is conditional to coordination by the Iranian authorities and the United States has said it is going to maintain a targeted blockade,” Macron said.“Recent developments are encouraging but we must take them with caution,” the French leader added.But Europeans are at odds about whether the United States should be included in the mission, with France insisting the mission should only include non-belligerent countries.
Now, I was going to repeat what the White House has stated, “If it hadn't been for the US, France would be speaking German right now!” In truth, I believe the question of what would have happened if the Germans had won the war belongs to counterfactual history, and it can only be speculated about.
However, the closing of the Strait by the evil and vile Islamic Regime of Iran will likely even further motivate European resolve. Oil and fertilizer shortages tend to be inflationary, and sadly, this could result in starvation in certain areas. Now, while this ── O, what’s that certain word that Judge Judy always uses? ── this kerfuffle is certainly pushing Europe further away from the United States of America ── prophetically, it will not end well for US (cf. Lamentations 1:1-2; Daniel 11:39; and Isaiah 10:5-11).
>>> Now … speaking of Europe in world news, the Europeans differ drastically concerning the war with Iran (See: Trump's Statement Challenges NATO Allies on Oil and Strait of Hormuz).
We're continuing to witness the Europeans distancing themselves from the Trump/Vance Administration as cracks widen in the NATO alliance ──
21/04/2026Appetite among NATO members to join Iran war ‘very limited’, says Norway's foreign affairs ministerNorway's foreign affairs minister Espen Barth Eide says Europe is ‘doing its part’ in the Hormuz Strait but argues NATO is not party to the conflict’ in Iran.Norway has pushed back against criticism from US President Donald Trump over what he described as “zero” European support in the conflict with Iran.
Personally, to me, that is no different than a NATO standing by, twiddling their thumbs, and saying, ‘Dealing with Adolf Hitler is of no concern to us.’
Even the Norwegian Foreign Minister views NATO much differently than our US President Donald Trump does.
Politico (Left-to-Center), posted the following ──
04/20/2026Iran war accelerates America’s breakup with the worldThe Iran war is damaging America’s influence around the world and exacerbating tensions with countries already whipsawed by President Donald Trump’s second term — an erosion of power that could be tough to reverse as U.S. adversaries such as China take advantage.From Bangladesh to Slovenia, fuel rationing has throttled transportation, frustrating leaders dealing with the fallout of a war they did not want. In Muslim-majority countries, anti-U.S. narratives are flooding the airwaves, often with tacit permission from governments. Even America’s allies in NATO have limited their help to the U.S., with some stressing the Trump administration did not consult them before launching the fight with Iran.The war appears to be accelerating what some see as a U.S. break-up with much of the rest of the planet since Trump returned to office and began flexing U.S. economic and military might in haphazard ways, including tariffs.“A lot of people are fed up with how chaotic this war has been and scared of the potential economic impact, but I haven’t seen any major protests in response,” a Washington-based Asian diplomat said, having been granted anonymity because the topic is sensitive. “If a more reasonable person becomes the next president, the image of the U.S. might improve, but for policymakers this raises some tough long-term questions about the alliance, how far we can go to stay aligned with the U.S. and what we should do if we can’t rely on the U.S. anymore.” …Fewer friends on the battlefieldThe strain on America’s military alliances has been impossible to ignore as the war continues.In previous wars in the region, U.S. presidents have managed to rally even reluctant allies to the cause. That included the Trump administration asking for help in defending Israeli cities and civilian infrastructure in the region from Iranian attacks last year.This time the Trump administration didn’t brief even its closest allies beforehand, according to two diplomats from European countries, and hasn’t made clear asks of them since. …
The US ── under the Trump/Vance Administration ── is increasingly isolating itself. And even though I believe that what President Donald Trump did to this evil and vile Islamic Regime of Iran was certainly necessary ── the following prophecy is getting ever closer to fulfillment ──
“How lonely sits the city That was full of people! How like a widow is she, Who was great among the nations! The princess among the provinces Has become a slave!
2) She weeps bitterly in the night, Her tears are on her cheeks; Among all her lovers She has none to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; They have become her enemies.” – Lamentations 1:1-2.
The United States of America has become ‘great among the nations!’
Friends, a major change is prophesied – and it is coming – this world is about to get freight-trained! Let us all get our spiritual house in order NOW (Luke 21:34-36; Zephaniah 2:1-3).
>>> Also in world news, in the United States of America ── A lesbian Protestant bishop, Yvette Flunder, draws backlash for saying the Bible needs a third testament.
April 20, 2026“Bishop” Says We Need a “Third Testament” Because the First Two are Problematic.Yvette Flunder—UCC bishop out of Oakland, head of “The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries” 🤮 —stood up with a mic and said what a lot of people whisper but won’t admit out loud. She said the New Testament is not the Word of God. Said the Bible is “problematic.” Said we need a “Third Testament.” Said if certain pages offend—rip them out. Pour them out. Rewrite the thing. ...
O indeed, that emoji face is spot on! 🤮
Contrary to “popular belief,” God’s living word does not allow for female bishops (be sure to read our article concerning this, “We Stand Firm On God’s Word”). Also, she is a lesbian, which is contrary to the glorious plan of God (cf. Romans 1:26-27). According to the LORD God, it’s against “nature.”
And let’s not split hairs ── but this Yvette Flunder has a short hairstyle. Notice the loving and inspired words of the Apostle Paul ──
“Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. 3) But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4) Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered [as with a “baseball cap”], dishonors his head. 5) But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved. 6) For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.” – 1 Corinthians 11:2-6.
Notice also ──
“But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.” – 1 Corinthians 11:15.
So, this vile false minister, false bishop, false teacher ── who wants a third testament and who is ripping on God’s living word had better be careful, she is literally placing a curse upon her own head, and she will suffer because of it. You know, it’s a terrible thing to fall into the hands of an angry God – so said the Apostle Paul in the Book of Hebrews! She refuses to accept that the glorious Creator God gave us His living word in its completion at this moment in time.
Sadly, she blasphemously mocks God and His living word ──
“All Scripture [the whole of the Holy Bible] is given BY INSPIRATION OF GOD, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17) that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” – 2 Timothy 3:16-17.
Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ ── the very One whom she mocks teaches us ──
“ … ‘It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” – Matthew 4:4.
Well … in truth … her blasphemous comments and beliefs concerning a ‘third testament’ are nothing new. Notice this that we just recently posted ── “Connect With Jesus ── Only $1.99 per minute.”
June 10, 2023WEF Calls for AI to Rewrite Bible, Create ‘Religions That Are Actually Correct’A top official with the World Economic Forum (WEF) has called for religious scripture to be “rewritten” by artificial intelligence (AI) to create a globalized “new Bible.”Yuval Noah Harari, the senior advisor to the WEF and its chairman Klaus Schwab, argues that using AI to replace scriptures will create unified “religions that are actually correct.”
Well … can you say, blasphemous? Because God’s living word ── the Holy Bible ── is not “fake news” or “made-up stories” passed down since the semi-mythic King Gilgamesh! Our Lord Jesus Christ says concerning the LORD God’s word, “ … ‘Your word is truth.’” – John 17:17. And that God’s word is “living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” – Hebrews 4:12. It’s God’s word in print.
Again, let me just add that this Yuval Noah Harari is a homosexual who is “married” to another man ── Itzik Yahav.
God’s living word warns us ──
“There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death [the second death].” – Proverbs 14:12.
That sexual immorality will lead to the second death, unless heartfelt repented from (Mark 1:15).
The LORD God warns us of this modern “new morality” where our peoples are doing whatever is right in their own eyes – Deuteronomy 12:8.
As we are nearing ever closer towards the end of this present evil age, a great many do not even care for the living word of God.
Back in 2015, when she was a Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton said, “deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed!”
She went on to say in that sixth annual Women in the World Summit in New York City speech ── “We move forward when gay and transgendered women are embraced as our colleagues and friends, not fired from their jobs because of who they love.” 1
This vile Hillary Clinton ── of whom I have spoken about before in the likes of “’ Women Rule Over Them’ - Isaiah 3:12” ── desires that religious beliefs (in regards to Christianity) have to be changed so that people will come to more openly and proudly embrace and support the legal murder of babies, homosexuality, and other outright immoral ways that Almighty God condemns. Anciently, and certainly upon the founding of the United States of America, cultural codes reflected biblical codes.
Well … sadly, she does not march alone.
A famine of hearing the living word of God is coming! – per-Amos 8:11-12. □
