#576: Media Insert Race Into NFL Controversy and Guttenberg Reacts to Germany’s Stunning Election
There’s a lot of talk in the United States about the need to have unity. Many see unity in National Football League owners and players locking arms and taking a knee during the national anthem. But is that the sort of unity that will heal America? Meanwhile, the major media are doing everything they can to inject race into the controversy between President Donald Trump and the NFL. Why is America experiencing such division? We discuss this topic on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, as well the aftermath of the hurricane in Puerto Rico, the Kurdistan referendum and Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg’s reaction to the German election.
#575: Donald Trump Feuds With the NFL While a Political Earthquake Rocks Germany
While America squabbles over sports and politics, earthshaking events are occurring around the world. This weekend, Germany witnessed a far-right political party enter the Bundestag for the first time since the fall of the Nazis. The Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) took nearly 13 percent of the vote in Germany’s general election and now has over 90 seats in the Bundestag. This is a dramatic shake-up for German politics. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, host Stephen Flurry and Trumpet contributor Richard Palmer discuss the rise of the AfD and what it means for the future of Germany.
#574: Obama’s Police State and America’s Religious Awakening
Sharyl Attkisson put together a frightening article this week laying out the extent to which the Obama administration spied on private citizens during its time in the White House. Attkisson herself was a victim of the Obama police-state-style surveillance and has been trying to expose the administration for years. Irrefutable evidence is mounting against the previous administration that it broke the law. Yet the major media is dead silent when it comes to covering these shocking revelations. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss Attkisson’s article as well as the trending topic of America’s religious revival.
#573: Is the World Finally Starting to Embrace Israel?
“Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, we're in the midst of a great revolution. A revolution in Israel's standing among the nations.” That is how Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu began his speech before the United Nations on Tuesday. On today’s program—recorded in Jerusalem, Israel—Trumpet Middle East correspondent Brent Nagtegaal analyzes Mr. Netanyahu’s speech in light of this revolution and discusses whether it will last.
#572: Trump Calls for a Global Reawakening and for God to Bless All the Nations of the World
At the end of his United Nations’ address, United States President Donald Trump called for a “great reawakening of nations.” He called for the “revival of their spirits, their pride, their people and their patriotism.” He asked for God to bless the nations of the world. The UN has a 70-year track record proving it is utterly incapable of solving the world’s problems. But will the nations, chiefly America and Britain, be able to keep the world from spinning into chaos? Bible prophecy actually forecasts the exact opposite—America and Britain are leading the world down! On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we explain why it’s too late for a revival of the world’s nations and give God’s solution to the problem.
#571: Our Maker’s Instruction Book
We are living in an age where the accepted explanation for man’s existence is evolution—the idea that our world happened by some fortunate accident. Of course, if that is the basis of our knowledge, then it means there are no set rules for how mankind is supposed to live—no moral code. The fruits of this thinking are evident in the mess of confusion, violence and moral depravity occurring around the world. It is clear that humanity does not know how to live! This world is suffering for a reason and it's because it rejects God, the Creator, who made man to live according to His laws! On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss why humanity rejects God’s instruction book: the Holy Bible.
#570: Most Americans Know Absolutely Nothing About the U.S. Constitution
Sunday was Constitution Day in the United States. While many Americans are celebrating that document, a staggering amount of Americans don’t know a single thing about it. Abraham Lincoln said that the Declaration of Independence defines the purpose of the American republic and that the Constitution reveals its method of operation. Americans’ ignorance of the nation’s founding documents is a monumental crisis that receives little attention. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss why forgetting history is a more deadly crisis than almost any other crisis America faces.
#569: The United States of Europe, the Daniel 8 Man and the Sins of Jeroboam
A European superpower is about to emerge. All that’s missing is a strong leader to get the project moving. With Britain on the way out and Europe entrenched in crises, the Continent is ripe for a confident leader to pull it out of this mess. Bible prophecy describes the qualities of this leader and the conditions that will give way to his rise. These prophecies are being fulfilled right now. We discuss this and more on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.
#568: America’s Self-righteousness Problem and the Coming United States of Europe
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker delivered the annual State of the Union address yesterday. Juncker said that the “wind was back in Europe’s sails” and, now that Britain is gone, it’s time for Europe to knuckle down and forge a “United States of Europe.” Trumpet writer Brad Macdonald discusses Juncker’s speech, as well as America’s problem with self-righteousness, or, what he terms, “America’s Job complex.”
#567: A World Hungry for Leadership
A new movie about Winston Churchill, Darkest Hour, is coming out in November. And judging by reviews from left-wing critics—that the movie “mostly plays as a rabble-rousing conservative fantasy in which it comes down to the powerful individual to single-handedly steer the course of history through his iron will”—it sounds like it might be pretty good! God used Winston Churchill to save Western civilization. Were it not for his powerful leadership and undeterred pursuit of victory, we wouldn’t have the freedoms we do today. The West desperately needs leaders like Churchill today. Sadly, all Britain and America can do is reminisce about the great leaders of history. Bible prophecy says America and Britain will experience a dearth of leadership just before their prophesied collapse. We discuss this and more on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.
