Today on Biblical News Source there is a lot to cover. Stories the past two weeks have been popping up in overwhelming numbers. Tucker Carlson interviewed Vladimir Putin, causing quite a stir; the border crisis intensifies, and the House impeaches Secretary Mayorkas for his dereliction of duty; Democrats’ soft on crime policies and refusal to deal with the mental health crisis in our country is putting people’s safety at risk; and it turns out that all of this, to no surprise, may be intentional. Xi Van Fleet, with her experiences from Communist China, gives us some insight into why. Following all of that, we discuss the state of our world and whether or not Jesus emphasized repentance as a part of the gospel message. And lastly, we continue in our examination of the Hebrew Worldview by examining the near sacrifice of Isaac.
