A new administration is here. Its agenda is simple: Roll back what Donald Trump did – and return to the well-worn path followed since 1989, when George H.W. Bush took office. Biden is itching to revive Globalism and return to the dubious strategy of establishing the New World Order. President Biden declares “America is back!” His first few actions disclose what he means. He recommitted to the Paris climate accords and to the Iranian Nuclear Deal. Next, he stopped the building the “border wall” and the Keystone Pipeline. Then he sent US troops into Syria.
The paper from which this video was made has been the most visited paper (post) in my history. It is also the first paper (post) to draw more women than men. Health is a woman’s issue I guess. I’m pleased this has proven to be the case.
The video goes a bit deeper than the paper in the sense that it provides extensive photographs and a few videos as background for the paper, adding more intensity to what I’m saying. On the other hand, the paper documents the research through extensive foot-noting which I don’t reference in the video. For … Read More
Will the COVID-19 Vaccine Become the Mark of the Beast?
“Due to his cold-hearted and selfish ways, the handsome prince was cursed, transforming him into a beast.”
So begins the story of Beauty and the Beast. We are told that selfish manners and an evil disposition turned the prince into a beast. But what might exist today that could make us all beasts? Is something lurking out there that could do this? Would the failure be in our scientific naivete or in our limited understanding of Bible Prophecy?
Many believe that the COVID-19 vaccine (referenced as C-19 henceforth), is not … Read More
Derek Gilbert and I discussed what the truth about Syria was back in 2015 (as the Obama Administration was winding down), and what is likely to be the case again now that Joe Biden is president. We must have been prophets… well good analysts at least.
Biden’s initial Foreign Policy initiative within his first two days of office was to reengage American troops in Syria. (See Chris Menahan’s article below.)
Unbeknownst to me until I stumbled on it last night, was Derek choosing (without any prompting from me) to pull up a show that we did together. After listening again … Read More
My second episode of THE HOT SEAT is available now on YouTube and KOFI. It is a 31 minute program. If you are despondent about the outcome of the Presidential election, I encourage you to take a listen. While the outcome isn’t what most Evangelicals hoped for, that doesn’t mean that all is lost and there is nothing we can do. I do my best to outline a plan.
Let me know what you think. You can comment on YouTube under the program. This is also posted on Facebook and your comments there are most welcomed as well.
Will Evangelicals Continue to Believe that Trump Will Get His Second Term?
We Evangelical Christians find ourselves at a true crossroads. Many of us still believe that Trump will be President again (sooner or later), while others of us are ready to throw in the towel and just accept the fact that the “powers that be” put Joe Biden into the Presidency, whether he really won the election or not.
What we see, when the turmoil is set forth and the events laid out end-to-end, is that such hopes have been unapologetically dashed again and again by the Deep State … Read More
My first episode of THE HOT SEAT is now available on YouTube. It’s a discussion is between Pastor Doug Riggs, Author and Financial Expert, Benjamin Baruch, and me. We tackle the tough issues associated with the failure of President Trump to be inaugurated on January 20 for a second term. There are many collateral issues that this outcome influences.
We address the failure of modern-day prophets who predicted Trump would win the election and what that means about these prophets and the gift of prophecy in today’s world. We also touch on what this … Read More
I took the time to listen to a one hour show featuring two of the voices that seem to have some valuable insider information about what is going on behind the scenes.
I personally believe they answer questions about subjects that they are likely not qualified to answer reaching well beyond direct information they have or their actual experience and knowledge, therefore, not everything said can be trusted. However, for those that have been following the programs of Ward and Parkes, this may be useful information. It does continue to reinforce that Trump will continue to the be the US … Read More
If the government of Italy crashes tonight… we might be in for a military coups in the USA led by Trump in the next couple of days.
The controversial frequent guest of Alex Jones predicted that we would see the Italian government crash in the next 24 hours. It appears that others are saying the same thing. Mr. Papadoupolus is another. Why would that be? Supposedly because the Prime Minister was atop the vote steal on the Dominion machines. And he has been arrested. And, we learn, the Pope had already been arrested months ago. Really? And that Nancy Pelosi, … Read More
If you feel like you have been punched in the gut, you are not alone.
Most conservatives theologically are conservative politically too. No surprise there. And most conservatives have been strongly influenced by Donald Trump and his populist positions. Most of us who aren’t in the elite camp, have had hope that the movement to change the direction of American politics would make a big impact. In some ways it has. But what’s occurred in the last four weeks or so, has caused this impact to be reduced, perhaps dramatically so. Time will tell whether the barometer of real change, … Read More
In the spirit of the season (the commercial season that is), I’m marking several of my newest books down by 30% or more.
The Rebooting the Bible Bundle (Parts 1 and 2), almost 800 pages in all, is marked down to $36.95 (regularly $50.00). As an added bonus, I’ll include a DVD copy of the presentation I made for the “Go Ye Therefore Conference” (regularly $10.00–free in this sale) for the first six orders. This video is also available for viewing on my YouTube channel. The video gives you a great overview of the thesis of both books.
The deal I discuss below is from GodSpeed Magazine. It promotes the work of Colonel David Giammona and best-selling author Troy Anderson.
Full Disclosure: I am working with the Colonel, Troy, and a number of other notable Christian leaders as part of a team to build an education ministry to prepare the Church for the difficult days ahead. This book lies at the center of the effort. While I will teach the material in 2021, I serve as the CFO for the company helping to prepare our operations.
One of my readers who follows the work I do closely, has done a fine overview of the recent book, REBOOTING THE BIBLE PART 2.
I appreciate the kind words, but especially his taking the time to provide a quick recap of what the books communicates.
AND TAKE NOTE: As a Christmas special, I will be offering the Rebooting the Bible Bundle at 10% off and a FREE DVD that hasn’t been seen but by only a few. It was my presentation for Michael Spaulding’s “Go Ye Therefore Conference.” It runs 45 minutes, and provides a very detailed review of
One of the most intriguing aspects of the Trump Legal Team’s investigation of fraudulent voting is the possible war between the US intelligence services.
We’ve heard rumors that a special ops teams from the military seized the Dominion servers in Frankfurt, Germany, at the directive of the President. Were there casualties because of this action? Apparently, there were. Perhaps many.
“One day after President Donald Trump tweeted about a report that Dominion Voting System had deleted 2.7 million trump votes nationwide, Rep. Louis Gohmert has confirmed that a US forces have seized servers containing election data in Frankfurt, Germany.”
This article comes from my most recent book, American Requiem. These are not encouraging words–but they do demand attention from responsible Christians and citizens.

America: The Farewell Tour
Chris Hedges, a former war correspondent for the New York Times and author of many books analyzing American society, has provided a scathing critique of the American government, the power-brokers of our most prominent corporations, and the moral degradation of our culture. As Pogo, the cartoon character, famously said,
President Donald Trump was urged by General Thomas McInerney, to use the full power of his office and declare a national emergency. The impressive general called for extreme measures given his assessment that the courts will not be responsive to the Trump legal team’s case that massive voter fraud “stole the election” from Trump and awarded former VP Joe Biden the presidency.
Do you think declaring martial law and implementing the insurrection act is too severe?
Attached is a summary of McInerney’s interview summarizing in World Net Daily, today, December 3, 2020. Click on headline below:

To build a stronger base of supporters, I need to expand my ministry to one or more online programs. Video has not been an emphasis although I have logged over 100 interviews and presentations on my web site, faith-happens.com. But I miss the live interaction with students, followers, and friends. The common usage of tools like ZOOM have made the online community a valuable method to reach out.

The three ideas I have are the following:
1. Online live Bible Study focused on prophetic topics, such as a study on key Prophetic passages of the Bible.
A FASCINATING ANALYSIS OF WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES. IT’S LITERALLY “SPY VS. SPY” FOR THOSE WHO REMEMBER THE CRAZY MAD MAGAZINE SPOOF. I CERTAINLY CANNOT VERIFY ANY OF THIS FROM FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE TV. I’M JUST PASSING IT ON TO THOSE WHO READ MY BLOGS. I WILL SAY, THIS COULD BE THE REAL TRUTH.
On Monday night, John Michael Chambers hosted a power panel to discuss the 2020 election crisis, with Jeffery Prather, Alexander Newman, Susan Bradford, Lt. Scott Bennett, James Grundvig and myself.
No one can argue credibly that America today is not an empire. Militarily, economically, and culturally, the United States wields a hegemonic influence unparalleled in world history.
Jim Garrison, America as Empire: Global Leader or Rogue Power?
The United States is the only country in the world that is in a position to initiate a change in the world order, to replace the Washington consensus with a global open society. To do so, we must abandon the unthinking pursuit of narrow self-interest and give some

Our legal team is fighting to ensure that all legal ballots
A great article by conservative Israeli journalist, Carolyn Glick. Good reading. Trump can’t win for losing. NOBEL Price to WHO. Really? The World Health Organization? (Its World Food Program). Yes, indeed, their performance was stellar.
A salient quote from Glick for those with too little time to read:
“And this brings us back to Newsweek and the agony of the elites its cover story described.The Nobel Committee’s decision to give the peace prize to the World Food Program rather than to Netanyahu, Trump, Bahrain’s King Hamad and the UAE’s Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan was a play for time. … Read More

What’s the truth about Joe Biden? Is he on the take? Has he been given 50% of what Hunter Biden’s graft obtained? Corruption has never been more clear. And the Mainstream Media has never been more silent about a shocking truth that affects America’s national security.
From the article below:
“In releasing these documents, the Post has followed a strategy to discourage the Biden campaign from issuing bad-faith or untruthful denials. It has dribbled out the original accusation giving the Biden campaign a chance to respond without fully knowing how well-documented the claims are. Then it has crushed early denials … Read More
I’m posting this on my website. I doubt it will be allowed on FaceBook since it implies that Joe Biden’s thinking and relationship with China is a threat to American National Security. But it plainly is. I encourage my followers to read this article to get a clear picture on what greater influence from China will mean for the US and for the World.
The following article is from Foreign Affairs… the magazine of the Council on Foreign Relations. And the content is shocking given that it comes from the CFR. … Read More

WARNING: THIS IS A DIFFICULT MESSAGE. IT IS NOT FOR THE THOSE WHO CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH. THE ISSUE IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE USA VERY SOON.
This post is the opening to AMERICAN REQUIEM. This new book will be available on Tuesday, October 13, at AMAZON (Paperback only) for $21.95. It is a large-format book (8.5″ x 11″), 184 pages, and 80,000 words. It can be pre-ordered at my store, www.faith-happens.com/store, at a pre-order price of $19.95 or bundled with a related title, MISTAKEN IDENTITY: THE CASE AGAINST THE ISLAMIC ANTICHRIST, for $23.95.
A new book by S Douglas Woodward will be released later this week. You can pre-order it today at my web store, WWW:FAITH-HAPPENS.COM/STORE.
The book is a hard hitting expose on why the United States is destined to collapse in a few short years. Colonel David J. Giammona, Ret., former head of all chaplains worldwide for the US Army, wrote the foreword to this searing examination of the US and why the challenges we face today are a sure sign that the time for our republic is in the final stage of decline and decay:
This review of Rebooting the Bible Part 2is an incredibly well-written piece. If you have been following my posts on the topics related to my most recent book, you will find this review exceptionally helpful. It’s certainly worthy to share with others who you think will find RTB Part 2 a helpful study on how we got our Bible and what difference it makes to get the Bible’s chronology right. If you want to truly grasp biblical history before Noah’s Flood, RTB-2 is indispensable.
I was privileged recently to have been interviewed by Derek Gilbert on his program A VIEW FROM THE BUNKER.
Between his knowledge and my own (both of us have researched the subject matter of NIMROD intensely), we addressed the many controversial matters of the identity of Nimrod, his supposed consort SemiRamis, his role if any at the Tower of Babel Event, how he was killed, and whether or not he truly was the prototype for the infamous figure we know as THE ANTICHRIST. We spoke for just over an hour on the subject. I received a number of compliments from … Read More
The Book of Jasher provides almost all the details about the Tower of Babel that believers in the Bible hold to be true. And it only gets 10.7% right. Consequently, most of what we believe about Babel is without biblical support. The reader should therefore ask, “So what does the Bible really teach?”
THE DEBATE OVER THE LIFE OF NIMROD IS SETTLED IN PART BY LOOKING AT THE VARIATIONS IN THE ACCOUNTS REGARDING HIS DEATH. REMEMBER: THE BIBLE ONLY MENTIONS THE NAME OF NIMROD IN 4 PLACES (TWICE IN GENESIS, ONCE IN 1 CHRONICLES AND ONCE IN MICAH). 3 OF THE 4 VERSES ARE ESSENTIALLY THE SAME. THEREFORE, THE BIBLE SAYS VERY LITTLE. ONLY THAT HE BECAME A MIGHTY ONE IN THE EARTH AND THAT HE CONQUERED FOUR CITIES AND BUILT FOUR OTHERS. EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT NIMROD IS LEGEND.
[Speaking of Legend, the featured picture is of Gilgamesh and the death of his … Read More
This week’s post comes from chapter 5 of Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. This is part 2 of 3 parts regarding NIMROD, one of the more sinister characters in the Scriptures. Truth about NIMROD is quite different than what most Bible students believe. It takes the right chronology (as supplied by the Septuagint-LXX) and an Egyptologist that has reverence for the biblical account (David Rohl). You will see that while Nimrod was truly the world’s first Emperor, he was not likely the leader of the rebellion at Babel. Enjoy!
No doubt, one of the most intriguing characters in the Old Testament is Nimrod, son of Cush, and grandson of Ham. His name often comes up as the archetype of the Antichrist. It turns out that when we dig into the story surrounding Nimrod, there is much more we can say about his importance than just speculating he is the figure who appears again in “the last days” as the Antichrist (“who was, is not, but will be again,” Revelation 17:8). The following post is drawn from REBOOTING THE BIBLE, PART 2, Chapter 4.
WHAT CAUSED THE DIVISION OF NATIONS? LAST WEEK, MANY SCOFFERS COMMENTED ON MY FACEBOOK BLOG THAT THE THEORY SOME CREATIONISTS HOLD ABOUT CONTINENTAL DRIFT BEING THE CAUSE FOR THE DIVISION OF NATIONS SPOKEN OF IN GENESIS 11 IS SHEAR LUNACY. WELL, OKAY.
BUT I RESPECT THOSE WHO HOLD TO THIS POSITION, BUT ITISN’T WHAT I BELIEVE, CONTRARY TO WHAT THOSE RUDE READERS IMPLIED BY THEIR SLAMS AND INSULTS (OF COURSE, SELDOM DO FB RESPONDENTS READ AN ARTICLE THEY DERIDE — DRIVE BY TROLLS I CALL THEM). WOW! HATE IS ALIVE AND WELL ON PLANET EARTH.
In a recent post that got a lot of attention, I spoke about three different view on what caused the world to be divided and for the peoples of the world to scatter, post-Flood. The usual position is that the incident at the Tower of Babel was the cause. When the Tower was supposedly knocked down, the city was abandoned, and the peoples went there separate ways, the world after the Great Flood of Noah, was replenished with humans, all from the sons of Noah, sometime after the Ark came to rest (estimates vary from 100 to 300 years afterward).
REVISED EDITION OF REBOOTING THE BIBLE, PART ONE, WITH NEW FOREWORD BY JACOB PRASCH.
BOTH PART ONE AND PART TWO OF REBOOTING THE BIBLE ARE NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON (PRINTED VERSIONS). THE BOOKS ARE IN LARGE FORMAT, 8.5″ X 11″, TO IMPROVE THE LEGIBILITY OF TABLES, CHARTS, AND PICTURES.
How do we reconcile an old earth with the Bible? Even if we grant the world is very old, God’s creation of Adam and Eve is dated by the Masoretic Text to 6,000 years ago, and the Septuagint to 7,600 years ago. But what if there were “generation gaps” (or additional gaps in the chronologies supplied in Genesis 5 and 11? Does this “buy us time” so to speak and make anthropology and archeology coincide with what the Bible teaches? That’s a major subject in Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. The following article below is drawn from Chapter 2 of
The following article is taken from Chapter 3 of Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. The division of the nations (or the world) was the first major event that occurred consecutively after the Tower of Babel. The question is did it happen at the same time? Or did it happen about 300 years after the Babel rebellion? This event, the division of the World at the time of Peleg, is the first event we take up in Rebooting the Bible, Part 2, that is dramatically changed if the chronology of the Septuagint is correct.
In this article drawn from the first book in a two part series, I provide an overview of what is discussed in PART 2 of Rebooting the Bible. This introduction was provided in PART 1. Obviously this illustrates that the two Parts of the story were known from the outset of the effort and are complementary. PART 2 IS NOW OUT! Readers are showing strong interest in the book. My thanks to you.

The following article is taken from Chapter Two of Rebooting the Bible, Part Two.The topic focuses on which ancient source supplies the correct, authentic timeline of Genesis 1-11, that tells us the biblical witness for all the great storylines of the opening chapters of the Bible. The Protestant and Catholic Bibles rely upon the conventional Jewish version, The Masoretic Text (MT). The Greek Orthodox Bible (and the Bible used by the early Church for its first 500 years) builds upon the Septuagint (LXX). When analyzed closely, we see there are dramatic differences in the timelines for when the Flood … Read More
ANNOUNCING: REBOOTING THE BIBLE, PART 2, IS NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON.
FINALLY, the book is published and available. For now, it’s the printed version only (Kindle is about one month, in time for the 4th of July). The format is 8.5″ by 11″. I had to make the difficult decision to go with a larger format. The reason, there are over 90 photographs and charts, many with tiny details you’ll want to see. This would only be plain to see in the larger format. (I’ll eventually have to redo RTB-Part 1 to the same size format, when I do an … Read More
This article is from the new book, Rebooting the Bible, Part 2.
I’ve missed my date to publish by today. Too much editing to do! But it will pay off in the end.
So allow me to treat my followers with an excerpt from the Chapter on the Tower of Babel. I go deep into the meaning behind the Tower. In this article I introduce the notion of the Cosmic Mountain and the connection between the Tower, sacred mountains, mounds, and monuments. The pattern is fascinating, and the meaning revealing.

This article is drawn from my new book, Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. This is cut from the Introduction and simplified a bit to focus just on the issue of why historical truth matters even in the first eleven chapters of Genesis, which is often the most likely section of Scripture to be labeled “myth.”
The revised date for the book being available is now Memorial Day weekend. May 23-25. Only the last chapter, indexes, and a couple of small appendices are left to complete. If you haven’t read Rebooting the Bible, Part 1, I do encourage you to get
The book is nearing completion, Only the introduction and the final chapter must be completed. I am sending the book out to reviewers now to enable them to comment near the time of the book’s release. For those of you anxiously awaiting the book, which I believe is the best thing I’ve written to date, I’m sharing with you the outline of the first 8 chapters.
Again, one more chapter to write and that will be on the subject of whether or not there was a Pre-Adamic race, evidence for a “high civilization” before Genesis 1, and a possible scenario
Here is the beginning of the opening chapter of Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. I am still striving to have the book finished by May 1. It looks like it won’t be available until about May 15 or so. Between now and then, I will begin sharing some of the new book to give you insight into where its going. I hope this meets with your approval and generates interest. Do let me know! You can respond on my Facebook page or by emailing me at doug@faith-happens.com. Blessings during this crazy time in which we live.

THE TRUTH WILL STOP YOU IN YOUR TRACKS. Protestant Christians in England and America must awaken to the truth about our Bible. The following article summarizes many of the things I’ve said in my books. It is the most important thing you’ll read this weekend… maybe this whole year.
Russian Bibles Are Very Different from American Ones. Here’s Why
Many people are surprised to find out that there are significant differences between Bibles in Russia, and most Bibles in America. Most English Bibles contain 66 books, while Russian Bibles traditionally contain more than 70.
Thanks to ORIGENalO for his very thoughtful review. I do answer two of the criticisms in ALL CAPS. If you have any question about whether you should bother reading A BIOGRAPHY OF THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE, this should answer your inquiry.

It’s time you get a copy of REBOOTING THE BIBLE and join many who have read it and are astounded to learn a multitude of facts about how we got our Bible and why The Greek Old Testament (the Septuagint, aka LXX):
Was the basis for over 80% of the quotations of the Old Testament in the New Testament.
Was also the Bible of the early Church for its first 300 years.
And is the Bible for the Greek (Eastern) Orthodox Church (and has never stopped being its Bible.)
ESTABLISHING THE EXODUS – A CHRONOLOGY CONTROVERSY, Pt. 1
This article is taken from Rebooting the Bible, Part 1, chapter 6. Chapters 6 and 7 become the bridge to Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. (Coming later this winder). This is because we must establish when the Exodus occurs, for from that date everything that happened before and after is determined as I demonstrate in the book. But to establish that date, we must show why Egyptian chronology as presented by the academics and fundamentalist is off, by 100 to 250 years. We take up this matter in this article … Read More

The following article is a sneak peek of the research being done for Rebooting the Bible, Part 2. (RTB, Part 2) Nimrod’s story as given to us from biblical revelation in Genesis 10 and 11, combined with archeology from ancient times in Mesopotamia, tells us what we can hold true about Nimrod – and dispels the many myths Evangelicals in the Bible Prophecy community today believe about him based on two books: The Book of Jasher and The Two Babylons by Alexander Hislop. This 2,000 word article comes from a 17,000 word mega-chapter developed for RTB, Part 2.
One of the most intriguing characters in the Old Testament is Nimrod, son of Cush, and grandson of Ham. His name often comes up as the archetype of the Antichrist. It turns out that when we dig into the story surrounding Nimrod, there is much more to be said about his importance than just the speculation that he might be figure who arises again in the last days (“who was, is not, but will be again” – Revelation 17:8) as the Antichrist.

False Prophets Pick Dates
When any notable advocate for the apocalyptic teaching of the Bible stoops to predict a date for ‘the end of the world as we know it,’ it peaks the interest of the press. This past month we saw yet another example … Read More
Perhaps the most incredible argument against the historical validity of the Septuagint (as a third-to-second-century-B.C. creation) is this: It was fabricated, following rather than preceding the composition of the New Testament (NT). It’s a heated area of debate because the King-James-only argument stands or falls based on when the LXX translation was commenced and completed. A valid LXX puts the King James Version at odds with itself, i.e., the two KJV Testaments really don’t agree with one another!
[The following is drawn from an Appendix to A BIOGRAPHY OF THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE.]

Perhaps an important way to get the big picture of the Christian message is to treat the New Testament as a book, and review it in a manner that the typical book review does. The following post conveys the usual overview of the salient points in a book review and how it “all hangs together.” This article is actually taken from A BIOGRAPHY OF THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE. This is my most recent book and focuses on its composition and transmission. If you don’t believe the Bible to be trustworthy, you would do well to read the book. You might come … Read More
While champions of the superiority of the King James Bible argue that it is based on the “received text” and is categorically different from the “critical text,” this claim turns out to be ERRONEOUS. We only have to consider the history of how we got our Christian Bible to realize that the label “the received text” falsely assumes its composition was inspired and NOT the result of critical examination. This position contends that God inspired the one, perfectly, while the other was the result of “man manipulating God’s word.” This position believes today’s “critical … Read More
Without the Greek Septuagint, The New Testament Might Have Been Written in Aramaic
There was one book which existed prior to the New Testament that was enormously influential in the development of the Christian Bible. It is the Septuagint. This book was not just “the Old Testament” – it was how the religion of the Jews was understood around the world by religious Jews during most of the so-called ‘Second Temple Period’ – for 350 years – from 280 B.C. to 70 A.D.
While Rome was politically in control of Judaea, the language used there was not Latin. Instead, the … Read More
Prophecy students have obviously gone bonkers over the giants of Genesis 6:4. So many books have been written on the subject. Some prophecy teachers focus on this topic, almost to the exclusive of other issues. But were these enigmatic figures really giants? Or were they something else? Were they hybrids of angels and humans? Or should we understand them to be humans of “stature,” but not so much in height as in their elite status?
Today, the noun nephilim has become a prominent part of the prophetic vocabulary. While the notion has, in my view, received more than an appropriate … Read More
Most of my followers know that there is a period of over 400 years between the writings of the Old and New Testament. In reality, it may span almost 500 years. The last Old Testament prophet was Malachi who wrote approximately circa 450-400 B.C. (and by the way, he may have been Ezra according to some scholars). The first New Testament book was written about 50 A.D., or slightly before, either by Paul, James, or John Mark. This period is also known as the “Second Temple Period” in which numerous apocryphal and pseudepigraphal writings were written. And, also, the story … Read More
THERE HAS BEEN A GREAT DEAL OF SPECULATION REGARDING WHETHER OR NOT JEFFREY EPSTEIN COMMITTED SUICIDE. THE CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE STRONGLY SUGGESTS HE WAS MURDERED. BUT IS SEX TRAFFICKING REALLY THE BIG STORY? OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE? I PRESENT HERE A COUPLE OF VIDEOS THAT DIG INTO WHAT IS REALLY BEHIND THE WHOLE MESS. AND JEFFREY EPSTEIN, DESPITE BEING THE CENTER OF SEX TRAFFICKING AMONG AMERICAN AND BRITISH ELITE, IS NOT THE MAIN ATTRACTION.
This weekend, thanks to my friend “Wink” I got up to speed on the big story. The real story. I wasn’t surprised. I had followed this … Read More
WHO IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FIGURE IN THE OLD TESTAMENT THAT PROTESTANTS GENERALLY DISREGARD? YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED. WE MIGHT THINK ONE OF THE KINGS LIKE JOSIAH OR HEZEKIAH WHO BROUGHT REVIVAL TO JUDAH. BUT ACTUALLY, IT WAS A PRIEST.
His name was written Esdras in Greek (and in the Septuagint). But we know him by his anglicized name, Ezra.
Ezra is an underappreciated Old Testament figure in Protestant circles. This opinion stands in enormous disparity with rabbinic Judaism (today’s Judaism), who sees him as a second Moses. While some scholars believe Ezra lived just 40 years, from 480 … Read More

What does the Bible say about how close we came to losing almost all of the Old Testament? It tells us, in essence, we were down to one copy hidden in the Temple 600 years before Christ. Who found it? And what happened? And what does it say about where the Ark of the Covenant was hidden? And who hid it? These topics are covered in brief in the following extract from my latest book, A Biography of the Christian Bible.

I also bet you don’t have a good grasp of the 500-year period from the Conquest of Canaanto the coronation of King Saul, the first king of Israel. There are many familiar names that figure into the story. But it might be the least understood period in the Bible.

Many subscribe to the view that Moses was the inspiration of the Pentateuch, but he wasn’t really the author. Indeed, Israel’s most ancient history and revelation was oral tradition passed down nearly 1,000 years before it was written down. I disagree… and take a more conventional view. But how did the primeval history of the Bible get written down? I answer that question in my new book.
I will be releasing my next book, it’s number 19 or 20, but who’s counting? It is entitled, A BIOGRAPHY OF THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE: AND HOW TO DEFEND THE PROTESTANT SCRIPTURES IN THE 21ST CENTURY.
There won’t be a lot of fanfare. (I can’t afford it). So I’ll need your help in getting the word out. Here is the text from the back cover and the cover itself for you to take look. Please share this with your friends or others you think will be interested.
For eager beavers, the book will appear available … Read More
This article is a chapter in a new book I hope to publish in a few short weeks. The working title is, “In Search of the Protestant Bible.” Feel free to comment on this as it is posted on my Facebook page (facebook/s douglas woodward) or by emailing me at doug@faith-happens.com. While this is a followup to my last book,Rebooting the Bible, it will take a different path in seeking to establish why the Protestant Bible must be understood in the context of other Bibles – The Hebrew Bible, the Greek Bible, and the Catholic Bible.
Summary: Most Christians have little awareness of how the Church selected which books should comprise our Bible. Fewer still know something useful about the Apocrypha. Many Evangelical Christians engaged in the current-day Bible Prophecy community are too enamored with certain books scholars label pseudepigrapha. This lengthy article intends to sort out these issues and explain why the Protestant Bible should include readings from the Septuagint in a number of places where the Masoretic Text was corrupted by rabbis in the second century. It also makes the case that the reason the Apocrypha was left out of current day Bibles (dating … Read More
Summary: I’ve been called many names since I dare to assert that the King James Bible has flaws. After all, isn’t it based on the “received text?” And doesn’t mean that it is inspired such that it is inerrant? I don’t think so. What the authors originally wrote were moved by God to compose what He wanted – inerrantly. But through the years changes were made, including the corruption of selected passages of the Old Testament by the rabbis of the second century A.D. Protestant Old Testaments, the Catholic Vulgate’s Old Testament, and the Hebrew Bible – the Biblia Hebraica, … Read More
CORRECTING CHRONOLOGY – THE GENESIS TIMELINE RECOVERED
Summary: The conventional biblical timeline is presented in the King James Bible and was supported by the work of Bishop Ussher in his magnum opus, Annals of the World. But does his work stand up to scrutiny from both biblical and secular scholars? There is much debate. I touch on that debate here, pointing out the distinction between the creation of the universe and the creation of humankind. the pivotal issue has to do with whether the Masoretic Text’s chronology or the Septuagint’s chronology is correct. What does the Septuagint teach that … Read More
ANNOUNCING MY NEWEST BOOK — GOING TO WAR: ONE MAN’S PERSONAL STORY.
By William C. Woodward with S. Douglas Woodward ————————————-
My father, William Woodward, will turn 100 the day after Father’s Day, June 17. I have assembled his memoirs from his World War II experience with the help of my brothers. Presenting this book to him will be part of the festivities and celebration of his centennial. Not many reach this mark. And when you read about the miraculous circumstances of God’s providential protection of his life, it makes reaching the 100-year mark even more amazing.
Two of my favorite interviewers are Gonzo Shimura and Basil Rosewater. Their show, Canary Cry Radio, is both humorous and deep. These cool guys deal with some of the most intriguing “fringe” issues on the minds of Christian apologists today.
Co-author Gray Huffman and I enjoy being interviewed by these “two guys with a mic” discussing our book, The Revealing, whose depth and topics caught them somewhat by surprise. There is a lot to talk about and there are quite a few moments of humor along the way.
Summary:There are many passages in the Hebrew Masoretic Text that do not reflect the original Hebrew which has been demonstrated to be the Vorlage of the Septuagint (from which the Greek Bible was copied) and the most ancient copies of the Hebrew. The passages in question number several dozen – not counting the Genesis 5 and 11 chronologies that also were changed to hide the timing of the Messiah’s coming. The primary emphasis in these targeted passages relate to prophecies about the Messiah, His nature and His mission. In this article, we look at six pivotal passages comparing the … Read More
Summary: The Bible has been transmitted through various means. The Septuagint and Masoretic Text are based on slightly different Hebrew originals, with most scholars arguing the LXX’s “Vorlage” is older than the MT’s. One of the most noteworthy elements differing between these textual traditions is the chronology’s presented in Genesis 5 and 11. But didn’t the MT protect the text from changes? Isn’t the MT version the one that Young Earth Creationists rely upon? What are the ancient codices and why are they important to assure us that we have authentic copies of the originals, the “autographs”?
Going for the Juggler: The Plan to Destroy the Old Greek Septuagint.
INTRODUCTION: At the end of the first century, with its temple in ruins, tens of thousands killed in the revolt that ended in the tragedy at Masada, and Rome still in control of their land, how could the new rabbinic form of Judaism rid itself of their rival pesky Jewish sect, the Christians? Rabbi Akiba, its newly acknowledged leader, elected to attack Christianity’s principaltext; namely, the Septuagint translated from the old Hebrew in Alexandria 400 years earlier.How could he do this? And is it speculation to think … Read More
Lyn Leahz, who has a great audience and works so effectively at creating fast-paced, creative, and fascinating videos produced this video hosting yours truly a couple of nights back for Freedom Nation News.
It is well-edited, packing a lot into 39 minutes (really it’s only about 36 if you cut out the intro which you really should still watch).
Lyn sets me loose to explain the essentials about the rabbinical conspiracy to confuse biblical passages which predict the identity and mission of the Messiah. This is the best video yet allowing me to explain the primary “hook” in my book, … Read More
Summary: When the Temple was destroyed in 70 A.D., it is correct to say that Judaism split into two different religions. Both were new. One sect was Christianity, the other, Rabbinic Judaism. Christianity was led by Peter and Paul. Rabbinic Judaism was led, ultimately, by Rabbi Akiba. The difference between these two new forms of Judaism couldn’t have been more dramatic. What are the reasons the two religions would be so different? What did the split have to do with the teaching of Jesus of Nazareth? Could they ever be reconciled?
Understand, then, that those who have faith are … Read More
Summary: Is the Bible’s chronology corrupted? Did this corruption take place before the time of Christ? Or might it have happened after the Temple was destroyed in 70 A.D. when rabbis altered the Old Testament to hide the fact that Jesus of Nazareth fulfilled the prophecies of the Messiah?
Which Chronology is Correct? The Masoretic’s or the Septuagint’s?
Perhaps the strongest proof demonstrating the corruption of the Masoretic Text (MT) comes from an analysis of its chronology. In contrast to the majority view in Evangelicalism that sees the MT’s timeline of Genesis 5 and 11 as the authentic chronology, there … Read More
Summary: Gary Huffman and I joined Tony on his show originating from “down under” in New Zealand. We focused a great deal of time on the failure of Mainstream Media, brought home to everyone with the Robert Mueller’s investigation, to prove the RussianGate Collusion between Trump’s campaign and Russia.
Could the investigations shift to Hillary Clinton and Company? Could the Clinton’s be brought to justice? Or will the fear of being “Arkansided” keep reporters from pushing hard on these issues?
Who might be the sacrificial lambs to take the … Read More
Summary: One Rabbi, 2,000 years ago, led the campaign to corrupt our Old Testament (the Masoretic Text that all Protestant Bibles follow). And He succeeded – at least in a narrow sense. He is known as the father of Rabbinic Judaism. His name is Rabbi Akiba ben Josef (50 A.D. – 135 A.D.). Not only was he responsible for creating a Judaism that was no longer dependent upon a Temple and its sacrificial worship, he sought to obscure messianic passages in the Old Testament including the timing when Messiah was believed to arrive. In this article, I make the case … Read More
Summary: The Bible we have today is the result of herculean efforts by scholars for over 500 years, built on sustained efforts to maintain the pure Word of God for almost 1500 years prior to that. Those who do the work of text criticism to discern the original words written by prophets and apostles almost always believe in the providence of God to preserve the text of the Bible for all generations. The issue is how it was preserved. This article focuses on the Old Testament and how its transmission to us is indeed an epic story, one that … Read More
Summary: The 2008 Financial Crisis demonstrated that the global economy depends upon world governments propping up the banking system with “mythical money” (dollars by fiat) and turning a blind eye to unimaginable bailouts when bank speculation drives the system over the cliff. What did the 2008 bailout really cost the taxpayers? Is it possible to fix the system? Or do we have to live with banks who continue to have a license to make billions of dollars with no consequences when things run amuck?
The issue of government bailouts of financial institutions in 2008 continues to be hotly debated I’ve … Read More
Summary: After the release of Special Prosecutor Mueller’s report anticipated for so long, Patriots saw the first real glimpse of hope that the bad guys were going to get theirs. Other reports are coming on its heels. This summer could be when the pivotal change of direction occurs in America. Will it come in time?
The outcome was surprising for many of us who wondered if our worst fears were inevitably going to come true — that President Trump was either going to be fingered for collusion with the Russians or for obstruction of justice through hindering the investigation (like … Read More
The Chronology of Genesis Is Important to Its Truthfulness of the Bible
It’s a question most of us who study the Bible want to know. “When did the stories of Genesis take place?” Specifically, we want to ask many questions related to the events of Genesis. And this topic is important. The “historicity” of these great stories isn’t incidental to the veracity and the message of the Bible.
When God breathed life into Adam, how long was it before the Flood of Noah happened? Then, how many years elapsed after the Flood before
THE TOPIC IS THE BIBLE’S HISTORICAL ACCURACY: WHETHER ITS OLDEST STORIES ARE TRUE HISTORY.
“History would be a wonderful thing, if only it were true” (Leo Tolstoy).
Why We Need to Reboot the Bible
When it comes to the question of origins, Christians believe that we have the inside track in this quest. And we do. We know a great deal about the past. The Christian faith is drawn from the renowned actions of the Bible’s heroes and saints, our Lord Jesus chief among them. Unfortunately, we have been fooled into believing a great deal of hogwash about earlier … Read More
The Gog and Magog War: Who Are Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, and Beth-Togarmah?
Does Ezekiel 38-39 Refer to Turkey Only or Central Eurasia?
Given that Russia is threatening Eastern Europe and more generally, NATO and the Western alliance of nations, it’s once more time to challenge the popular theory that the Antichrist will arise from Turkey — that it will be Turkey who leads the assault against Israel in the War of Gog and Magog…
Son of man, set your face toward Gog of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him and say, … Read More
