Not really, Babylon is the mother of harlots and she's bred many of them. They're also all on the broad road leading to destruction where people can choose any sort of lifestyle from strict to loose so long as it's not in line with Jehovah's way.

More religious news. Their stuff is just non-stop. 

 

 

"Violating Al-Aqsa and Jerusalem means a regional, religious war,” he said.

 

"Whoever makes the decision to allow this photo to be repeated, the violation of Al-Aqsa — he has decided to allow the violation of thousands of synagogues all across the world,” Sinwar said.

It is no surprise then that the Rapture Index – yes, there is such a thing, measuring “end-of-time activity” – has hit 188. This, according to its evangelical Christian creators, is “fasten-your-seatbelts” territory, and just one point off an all-time-high reading from October 2016

Then this part was interesting….

FWIW, just a heads-up that it's due to go up +1 tomorrow (2 May 2022) to 189, so it appears it will then match their all-time-high reading from October 2016....

 

I won't link to their website though.... and their Twitter has an "Account suspended" notice displayed.... 🤔
