Because much of the church has adopted the secular world’s teachings regarding the different “races” and has not accepted the Biblical view, most Christians have lost a vital truth concerning the Scriptural teaching on the two spiritual races (but only one physical race), as opposed to the false idea of different biological races.

This discussion will cover such intriguing topics as: the origin of so called “races,” skin “color” (is there really more than one color?), “inter-racial” marriage, the devastating effects of racism in the culture and the church. There is only one race—the human race! And we are all descendants of one man: Adam.

Sharing our hardships moves us through shame and into healing Eli Nash is the CEO of JEG & Sons Inc. and the Co-Founder of MicDrop. Eli founded JEG & Sons in 2006 to bring no contract and unlocked phones to US e-tailers and retailers. Under his guidance, JEG grew from a startup to over $200M in revenue, servicing retail giants such as Walmart, Amazon, Best Buy, Target and many others.

In addition to his business accomplishments, Eli has taken active role in the non-profit world - sitting on the Board of Lamplighters Yeshivah (a Jewish Day school), JCW (a leading organization in the fight against child sexual abuse) and in an advisory role with Urban Promise Miami (an after-school program servicing little Havana).

As Eli held the details of his own abuse secret for many years, he is now passionate about empowering others to speak up and to use their voice to be an agent of change in their communities. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

For centuries, an ancient curse was used to support the terrible evils of slavery. It’s a curse that appears in one isolated verse in the Bible. Even today, this misunderstood curse still lingers with us as a legacy of shame. Fortunately, through tracing history and honest examination, researchers have exposed the lie of a cursed race.

Another concern for African descendants is that Christianity is a white man’s religion, and that they should be looking elsewhere for faith. You may be surprised what a journey back before the days of slavery reveals about the faith of the African forefathers. In fact, it goes back to the very first followers of Jesus.

Many people who are descendants of slaves have returned to the continent of Africa in search of their historical and spiritual roots. But most aren’t aware of a long lost Christian heritage and identity in Africa and in the Bible. Until now.

Africa and the Bible seeks to expose the myths and bring light to some of the questions we ask. You’ll discover the spiritual heritage and identity of people of African descent through this 3-part program from Day of Discovery.

Who do you think makes more money post-college: consultants and bankers, or people who buy businesses? You guessed it!

Today I'm going to be telling you the smartest way--hands down--to get to 5 figures of monthly income.

It is the best way to hit $10,000 per month. It has the lowest failure rate (which is especially important in 2023), allows for income on day one, and it's how the largest percentage of people on the Forbes 500 list made their money.

And it all starts with two words that I'm known for (comment below if you know what they are so I can see who's been doing their homework)! It's as simple as buying people's businesses, and using other people's money to pay for it. It's not only possible, it's necessary!

There are way more businesses than buyers, and today I'm going to teach you how to replace your W2 income by buying a business, how to finance a business by using other people's money, and the 4 different ways we can cash flow so you can buy your businesses.

The Dangers of Gender-Affirming Care

Sign the petition to protect kids from harmful transgender ideology: https://l.prageru.com/3s9t12U

What happens when a child is told she is born in the wrong body and undergoes life-altering surgery only to experience regret? A growing number of young Americans are being manipulated by social media and pushed by medical professionals to take hormones and undergo surgery. Now, many are finding the courage to detransition and warn others about their experience.

Featuring interviews with:

• Detransitioners Daisy Strongin and Abel Garcia

• Transgenderism expert and fellow at the Manhattan Institute Leor Sapir

• Attorney Harmeet Dhillon, whose clients are suing healthcare providers for performing “gender-affirming” surgery on minors

DETRANS serves as a wake-up call to all of us: our children are in danger and it’s up to us to protect them.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has launched an international campaign to achieve recognition by the United Nations for an independent Palestinian state. Abbas and his international supporters claim that only Israel (with the United States) stands in the way of this act of historical justice, which would finally bring about peace in the Middle East.

This video debunks the Palestinians' claim and shows that Abbas has been lying about the origins and history of the conflict. Palestinian leaders have rejected partition plans that would have given them much more land for their independent state than the Jews were offered for theirs. Rather than being the innocent victims of a "dispossession" at the hands of the Israelis, the Palestinians rejected reasonable compromises and instead pursued their aim of getting rid of the only Jewish state in the world.

The popular version of the formation of the modern nation of Israel is based on several myths. David Wood and Brother Rachid discuss the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the British Mandate of Palestine, the persecution of Jews in Muslim countries, and the modern State of Israel.

This powerful investigation into Shia clerics in some of Iraq's holiest shrines uncovers a network of exploitation of young women and girls, trapped into prostitution and pimped out by a religious elite. For the first time the clerics' secret sex trade has been captured on camera. Undercover filming and victim testimony reveal how they procure young women for male clients, and are prepared to conduct ‘pleasure marriages’ with children.

On oublie souvent d'expliquer le rôle colonial de l'occident dans le démarrage de la guerre entre Israël et la Palestine. On parle de Palestine Ottomane, de l'antisémitisme européen, de la naissance du Sionisme, de la déclaration Balfour, des mandats de la Société des Nations, et enfin du début de la guerre. Vous avez déjà entendu parler de cette histoire ?

The Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem is one of the holiest sites in the world and one of the most contested. Why is it so significant? #AJStartHere with Sandra Gathmann explains.

Why don't the Palestinians have their own country? Is it the fault of Israel? Of the Palestinians? Of both parties? David Brog, Executive Director of the Maccabee Task Force, shares the surprising answers.

Grâce à des courriels de Hillary Clinton rendus publics sur Wikileaks, il est désormais possible de mieux comprendre l'histoire incroyable de Mouammar Kadhafi ainsi que les motivations réelles de l'intervention en Libye.

Il voulait unir l'Afrique, unir les pays arabes, et bousculer le système mondial.
Plutôt, il est devenu l'ennemi numéro public numéro un.

Première portion d'un documentaire en deux parties.

Dans cette partie, nous explorons la montée fulgurante de Kadhafi ainsi que ses premiers affrontements avec les puissances mondiales.

En France, dans les années 1680, la minorité protestante fait face à l’hostilité grandissante de la monarchie catholique. Par la révocation de l'édit de Nantes, en 1685, Louis XIV scelle le destin des "huguenots". Malgré l'interdiction faite aux "simples fidèles", près de 300 000 protestants quittent le pays. Ce docu-fiction en deux volets retrace l'histoire de cet exil forcé et de ses conséquences.

Tim Ballard a quitté son poste d'agent spécial du ministère américain de la sécurité intérieure pour fonder O.U.R. [Operation Underground Railroad]. Grâce à cette organisation, Tim et son équipe planifient des opérations d'infiltration pour sauver des enfants victimes de trafic sexuel dans le monde entier. À ce jour, ils ont sauvé des centaines d'enfants de conditions horribles, ce qu’il n'était pas en mesure de faire lorsqu'il était lié par des restrictions gouvernementales. Découvrez O.U.R. et sa mission de mettre fin à l'esclavage moderne en rejoignant Tim et son équipe de forces spéciales lors d'une mission secrète en Haïti, pour traduire en justice un réseau de trafiquants sexuels qui ont soudoyé les autorités pour échapper à la prison.

The frantic race for raw materials has brought nuclear power back into fashion. Uranium from Niger, the 4th largest producer in the world, only recently exploited by the French company Areva, has become a strategic stake coveted by various powers. Today, the exploitation of this ore has seriously polluted the sites. Despite Areva's claims, the town of Arlit, located near the open-pit mines, is contaminated, causing cancer, lung or skin diseases among former miners and residents. If the majority of the population demonstrates its discontent peacefully, on the other hand groups of Tuaregs have taken up arms. Fearing that this movement would take on significant political weight, the government of Niamey cordoned off the area, prohibited access to journalists and prevented the Tuareg rebellion from obtaining an international platform. Several French and Nigerien journalists have been imprisoned for trying to circumvent this ban. For the first time, an on-the-spot investigation, among rebel Tuaregs, Nigeriens, experts and Areva, has lifted the veil on the truth.

The Spider's Web: Britain's Second Empire | The Secret World of Finance

Michael Oswald's film The Spider's Web reveals how at the demise of the empire, the City of London's financial interests created a web of secrecy jurisdictions that captured wealth from across the globe and hid it in a web of offshore islands. Today, up to half of global offshore wealth is hidden in British jurisdictions and Britain and its dependencies are the largest global players in The Secret World of Finance.

The landmark Roe v. Wade decision, handed down by the United States Supreme Court in 1973, touched off a divide deep within the American culture that shows little signs of healing. The reason is not necessarily that people have intransigent views when it comes to abortion. Instead, the issue is genuinely hard to grapple with, even from a moral standpoint, as Harvard Law Professor and bioethicist Glenn Cohen explains.
The first question we face when deciding whether abortion is immoral is this: are fetuses persons? That may seem like a straightforward question, but determining personhood requires understanding the distinction between a person, a human being, and being alive.
Certainly not all things that are alive are persons. A dog, for example, is very much alive and very lovable indeed, but not a person. As simple as this distinction seems, it has its detractors. The philosopher Peter Singer, for example, says that distinguishing between what is human life and inhuman life is an example of speciation — an act of discrimination that is ultimately logically untenable (and we should therefore abandon it).
According to Cohen, some scholars say that stem cells and embryos are human beings, but not persons. They are made of human being stuff but they do not have the moral and legal rights — namely, the right of inviolability — that we accord to individual persons.
Those who believe the granting of rights is more a political act than a natural one may look toward what Cohen calls a "capacity 'x'," i.e. some other quality that more accurately defines what a person truly is. Examples of such a capacity 'x' include experiencing a continuity of identity, or possessing self-knowledge. While these qualities form more naturally than the granting of political rights, they open the door to difficult-to-justify actions like infanticide (since the infant brain is insufficiently developed to have the concept of an identity, or to articulate self-knowledge).
If one decides to stick with a definition of "person" that is determined by the existence of moral and legal rights, thinkers such as Judith Jarvis Thomson point out that the rights of a mother countervail — she is a person, too, after all. Thomson's famous thought experiment, "the famous violinist" has become perhaps the most recognizable philosophical defense of abortion.
Glenn Cohen's book is Patients with Passports: Medical Tourism, Law, and Ethics.

Barbara Amaya ran away at the age of 12 after being abused by family members. She was taken in on the streets of Washington, DC by a couple who seemed nice, but ended up selling her into human trafficking. She was used for months and then sold to a man named Moses who took her to New York and continued to traffic her for many years. Now Barbara fights for other victims of human trafficking and to change policies that treat victims as criminals.

Barbara is an anti-trafficking advocate, speaker, trainer, author and survivor leader in the movement to end modern-day slavery and human trafficking. She is Senior Technical Adviser, Policy, Programs and After Care Services at SeraphimGlobal, and has been actively raising awareness of the sexual exploitation of children and domestic sex trafficking since 2012.

I live in the Netherlands, where we have some pretty great trains. But there's a country in Europe that does trains better. Much better, in fact.

Switzerland has some of the best trains in the entire world - second, perhaps, only to Japan. What makes these trains so good? And what is it like to actually ride them?

Slavery didn’t start in 1492 when Columbus came to the New World. And it didn’t start in 1619 when the first slaves landed in Jamestown. It’s not a white phenomenon. The real story of slavery is long and complex. Candace Owens explains.

Atomiser est bien le mot, puisque désormais la France n'exportera plus son uranium que de sources pro-russes: l'Ouzbékistan, le Kazakhstan et maintenant le Niger... et donc en effet Moscou vient d'atomiser calmement la Françafrique.

En somme, pendant que Paris envoyait ses VAB, ses CAESAR, ses AMX10-RC et ses SCALP à l'Est, Moscou déstabilisait 75% de son influence en Afrique et retournait le Niger et le Burkina Faso. Aujourd'hui presque quatre nations africaine sur cinq ont signé un accord de coopération militaire avec la Russie.

La prochaine ciblé désormais est le Tchad, de toute évidence. Dans cette guerre Froide 2.0, Moscou a commencé par démontrer plusieurs fois son incapacité à sauver la peau des chefs d'Etat amis (e.g. Khadaffi) puis au contraire, a manifesté sa diplomatie du "plus un pas en arrière" (e.g. Bachar el Assad), et se trouve dès lors crédible pour protéger ses nouveaux alliés sur le continent (eg. Ibrahim Traoré). Ndjamena en fera-t-elle partie? Ce qui est certain, c'est qu'entre Paris et Moscou, ce pivot africain qu'est le Tchad devra choisir.

Enfin, les russes viennent de se positionner pour absorber l'empire économique français en Afrique, ou tout du moins une partie, et apporter aux BRICS ce qui fut autrefois le système Franc CFA...
