66, 70 Or 77 Books Of The Bible?

May 5, 2026

Dear Compass Supporters:

This month we crossed the 1.5 million postal-mailed mark of our Before and After the Rapture (BAR) warning flyers sent to unsuspecting random people around the nation.

If you're new to Compass, we started this campaign about 2 1/2 years ago in an effort to plant some seeds about what's dead ahead. Thanks so much for all those who make this happen.

Some people have trusted the Lord from these mailings, but mostly it's meant to plant seeds that if someone misses the Rapture, they will know the truth about what just happened. And that all is not lost, they can still get saved and go to heaven.

If you've EVER believed the Gospel... believed that Jesus Christ paid the cost of your personal sin when He shed His blood and died on the cross, and rose again defeating death for you, it's 100% certain that you'll be Raptured at the end of the Church Age in which we currently reside.

if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; Rom. 10:9

It's not about what sins we've committed, or not committed, in the past or in the future. It's only about believing what Jesus did for us on the cross.

Chances are, you know family, friends and/or coworkers who are likely not saved. So we've also sent tens of thousands of these BAR flyers for free to individuals to pass out on their own. If you want us to send you some CLICK HERE. You only pay for postage.

The article this week is about how many books are in the Bible... probably some info some of y'all didn't know. It was new to me! Enjoy!

Are There 66, 70 or 77 Books Of The Bible?

For over 30 years, Chuck Missler opened his radio broadcasts saying the Bible was "66 books written by 40 authors." With his incredibly large listening audience, that stat of 66 books in the Bible seemed to be ironclad.

And when I say “incredibly large listening audience,” that’s an understatement. At one time there were over 6 million of his Bible teaching cassette tapes in circulation…PLUS his radio ministry outreach.

So when I recently made the comment that there were 70 books in the Bible, it raised a lot of eyebrows.

Claiming there are 70 books in the Bible is not something that we've recently come up with. We’ve been teaching this for a couple of decades and even have it in the foreword of our very first Steel on Steel, Book 1.

I have to say that for the first 20 years of my Christian walk, as I learned about biblical numbers, I never understood why there would be the peculiar number of 66 books. Six is the number of the day man was created. It also means incomplete...one less than seven—God's number of perfection or completeness. 

Hey, if those people who met in the early Christian days were that smart and that spiritual, it seems like they would’ve settled on something divisible by 7. Just saying. 

Over time I realized, as have others, that Psalms is actually five books, not one.

Here’s the structure of the five books of Psalms: (Notice that at the end of each of the 5 books there’s even a closing verse.)

Book •  Psalms  • Range • Main Theme • Close

Book 1  Psalms  1–41   Emphasizes personal devotion and trust in God.

Closing verse:

Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God. Psa. 42:11

Book 2  Psalms  42–72   Focuses on longing for God's presence and comfort.

Closing verse:

The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended. Psa. 72:20

Book 3  Psalms  73–89   Addresses issues of injustice and the struggles of faith.

Closing verse:

Blessed be the LORD forever! Amen and Amen. Psa. 89:52 

Book 4 Psalms  90–106  Reflects on God's sovereignty and eternal nature.

Closing verse:

Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting. And let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise the LORD! Psa. 106:48

Book 5 Psalms 107–150 Celebrates God's faithfulness and the hope of restoration.

Closing verse:

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD! Psa. 150:6

Here is a pic of my personal Bible that shows the heading of Chapter 42:

Just as we have 1Thessalonians and 2Thessalonians, 1&2Kings, 1&2 Corinthians, 1&2 Timothy, and 1st, 2nd and 3rd John, etc., we could have easily had 1st through 5th Psalms. 

Here’s what happened…

How We Got the Canon of Scripture

The term “Canon” is used to describe the books that are divinely inspired and therefore belong in the Bible. A book of Scripture belonged in the Canon from the moment God inspired its writing. It was simply a matter of God’s convincing His human followers which books should be included in the Bible.(1)

I had always been taught that the New Testament Canonical books were determined in the 300s AD and I just assumed that’s where we got the 66 books we have today. But according to what I found doing a little research, that’s not the case.

The Catholic Canon of Scripture was confirmed in 382 AD at the Council of Rome under Pope Damascus. They approved 77 books of the Bible (Psalms was five books).

Some 1200 years later during the Reformation in 1530s, Martin Luther apparently disagreed with the Catholic hierarchy’s conclusions as to which books were 100% inspired by God.  

So over 20 years before the Protestant Revolution, Luther took seven books, Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, and 1–2 Maccabees, plus additions to Esther and Daniel and put them in a separate “Apocrypha” section.  

He labeled them useful for reading but “not equal to the Holy Scriptures” and not to be used for establishing doctrine.

Numbered Verses

New Testament Bible verses were first numbered in 1227 AD by Stephen Langton, an Archbishop of Canterbury. Although the numbered verses were not inspired by God, it made referencing scripture verses far easier, as you can imagine.

The Hebrew Old Testament was divided into verses by a Jewish rabbi by the name of Nathan in 1448 AD. That helped a little but still the Bible was primarily written on scrolls which were 80' kosher animal skins.

Don't miss the fact that up until around the 13th century, all the small groups studies were never over in less than an hour. Imagine someone saying, "Turn in your Isaiah scroll about half-way to where it says "Your eyes will see the King...". LOL!

Ok, few peeps had Isaiah scrolls in that day. Shoot, few had any scrolls. They must have just read to the small group off a borrowed scroll and discussed. And if the study was at night, women didn't need to worry about make-up because there was little light after dark. LOL! (Just kidding)

In 1455 the Bible became the first major book in the world printed (in Latin) using the newly invented printing press. But it didn't include chapter and verses. Psalms was published as five books, not one in that first Bible printing.

In 1560, the Geneva Bible (first Bible printed in English) was the first Bible printed using the chapter and verses that we use today. Sir Rowland Hill of Soulton was the publisher.

Above: The Puritan Separatists or Pilgrim Fathers aboard the Mayflower in 1620 brought to North America copies of the Geneva Bible to the New World.

No explanation was ever given as to why Hill arbitrarily included the five books of Psalms into one book. The apocrypha, following Martin Luther’s lead, was included as a separate section between the Old and New Testaments.

So the original Catholic Canon had 77 books, and the Protestant Canon was changed to 70 books by Luther. When they began using the newly designated chapter and verses in the printed copies, Sir Rowland Hill, the publisher, printed Psalms as one book, changing the total number of books to 66.

Therefore, it was an English publisher who inexplicably made the "combining the Psalms" decision. And quite possibly it could have even been an apprentice worker tasked with shortening the length of the vast project. 

And that’s why so many people count 66 books of the Bible when there are actually 70.

About Those Vaxxed Blood Transfusions

A couple of weeks ago we published Dr. Peter McCullough's info regarding blood transfusions dealing with the concern that if you were to receive someone's vaxxed blood, you would be getting their spike proteins, etc.

McCullough explained several reasons he didn't think it would be a problem.

The article prompted a reader to share with us a link to https://safeblood.com At that site, in their Q&A section, they had the following information we thought was helpful.

No blood is more compatible than your own and is therefore always the best option in cases where your own blood can be used in surgery. In addition to autologous blood donation, where you donate your own blood before a planned surgery, there are other options.

You might be able to avoid transfusion altogether by using autotransfusion, commonly referred to as “cell salvage,” or CS for short.

Autotransfusion is a medical process in which a person’s own blood is collected during surgery, filtered, and then re-infused back into the body. 

This procedure, which is performed by a trained member of the surgical team, is mainly used during operations when the chance of significant blood loss is high (>500 mL) and the chances of contamination within the surgical field are low.

These include cardiac, major (open) vascular, complex urology, obstetric and orthopedic surgeries (including spine).

For a more detailed description of intraoperative cell salvage, see here: https://www.bjaed.org/article/S2058-5349%2820%2930157-8/fulltext

Autotransfusion is not an option in every circumstance, such as in instances of major surgical site infection or when certain contaminants are present.

Such contaminants include: antimicrobial agents that cannot be adequately filtered out of the collected blood; antibiotics not approved for IV use; topical clotting agents; unset bone cement; and excessive amniotic fluid and leukocytes present in cancer surgeries.

Because a person’s own blood contains the necessary antigens and antibodies required for a successful transfusion, autotransfusion ensures perfectly matched blood and prevents possible allergic reactions caused by improperly matched donated blood.

Moreover, autotransfusion eliminates the concern that you are receiving blood from a vaccinated donor.

Despite the benefits, many doctors and surgeons do not include cell salvage as part of their routine procedural care.  Therefore, it is critical to advocate for yourself or your family member.

More often than not, cell salvage (CS) will not be offered as an option unless you specifically request it. Find out if your hospital has trained cell salvage staff and equipment on site. If they do, discuss the risks and benefits of CS with your doctor.

Protocols to mitigate blood loss are also worth discussing with your surgeon and anesthesiologist. 

These include but are not limited to: supplements to increase hemoglobin levels prior to surgery; avoiding hemodilution in the preoperative setting; volume expanders, antifibrinolytic drugs (specifically tranexamic acid); perioperative use of vasoconstrictors; and reversal of anti-coagulants.  

You may specify that these procedures be used before transfusion in your medical advance directives which you can fill out and print and/or link to your medical ID on your phone from our site.





The links in the Additional Resources below are meant to help us be wise and aware as we make decisions living in the concluding moments of the Church Age.

So this section is intended to offer more insight into our adversary's worldwide actions to help us make good decisions between now and our exciting exit.

24-year-old Las Vegas resident Basia Query suffered an anaphylactic reaction and was rushed to a nearby hospital following a lip filler procedure.

Is The Hantavirus Scare Covid 2.0?

.
Second verse, same as the first.
.
But there are some differences...look at that ship in the above picture. It looks like the original Love Boat ship from 50 years ago, just repainted. And it was going from South America to Africa. The Globalists/Satanists must be desperate!
.
But they have all the liberal media howling on cue, fanning the flames of fear as much as possible.
.
And surprise, surprise, surprise. They have no less than 12 va((ines all ready to go worldwide.
.
But I'll be surprised if they can sell this one. Too many people have wised up.
.
I don't know of a single person who would take a hantavirus va((ine. Wait, I do have a cousin who is still taking the Covid shots, so I do know of one person. But I doubt you could get 20% of Americans jabbed again.

If you are worried, here's a link to an article that's skeptical of Covid 2.0. It also shows what cures hantavirus virtually 100%.

Embalmer Discusses Fibrous Clots He's Finding

These days, to be a right-thinking Democrat, you must be an outright communist. Buoyed, apparently, by the ‘success’ of barely concealed communist candidates in places like New York City, they’ve decided to chum the waters with red bait.

Interdimensional Beings—The Great Deception?

No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 2Cor. 11:14

I didn't watch the video offered for $25, rather just read the article.
.
We already know the Rapture will need an explanation. The 6-minute clip mentions the above verse that "Satan disguises himself as an angel of light." That's interesting because it could mean either his demons, or he himself as the power of the air, could be responsible for the ongoing UFO sightings.
.
IF (big IF) Satan uses the UFO idea to explain away the millions disappearing peeps at the Rapture, you would expect to see UFOs being promoted just prior to the Rapture. And now you have Trump declassifying UFO phenomena. Interesting timing. Hmmmm....



Sen. Ron Johnson: Emails Show FDA Ignored ‘Overwhelming Evidence of Harm’ From COVID Va((ines

90-minute video (watch the first 5 minutes for a great recap)

The Truth Is Continuing To Come Out—It Was An Obvious Cover Up

For four years, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has wondered how US health officials could ignore “overwhelming evidence of harm” from the COVID vaccine.

“Now I know,” he says.  "The truth is, health officials didn’t 'ignore' safety signals. They buried them instead. And now we have the receipts."

According to VAERS, the US’s vaccine adverse event reporting system, more adverse events and deaths have been reported following COVID vaccines than from all other vaccines combined over the system’s 30+ year history.

More dangerous than ivermectin. More dangerous than hydroxychloroquine (which turned out not to be so dangerous after all).

It was 55 times more deadly than the flu vaccine (0.46 deaths vs 25.5 deaths per million doses).

And even more dangerous than Remdesivir, which earned the nickname “Run Death Is Near” after it wreaked havoc on the kidneys and livers of tens of thousands of COVID patients in the hospital.

But still the question remains. How did US health officials miss a safety signal this big?

The U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations investigated what federal health officials knew and when they knew it.

It turns out they knew the safety signal was there. But they didn’t see it as a warning sign. They saw it as a “pest.”

So much of a “pest” that they decided it was better to ignore the devastating safety signals and let people die than to deal with the data head-on because it could stoke “vaccine hesitancy.” Read more at the above link.

BP comment on the above:

I will pose another pressing problem that I've never gotten an answer to:

If this world va((ine push was only about Big Harma making money, they could have simply made all the va((ines harmless, like placebos. They could then take the credit for the va((ines working and demand mandatory va((ines for the world be taken every year, or even every six months.

But instead, they knowingly distributed va((ines that were deadly. And we still don't know what deaths are still coming in the future as cancer and multiple heart issues continue to spike along with many other health problems due to the covid v-shots.

Now I [Gabriel] have come to give you an understanding of what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision pertains to the days yet future...But I shall now return to fight against the prince of Persia; Dan. 10:14, 20

Actually, the entire chapter of Daniel Chapter 10 is about Persia, which in 1935 changed its name to Iran. Apparently it was a hot-bed of demonic activity even back in 536 BC. There you have it.

And if it's not too painful, here's a recap of the vax lies playbook by A Midwestern Doctor. For more than 250 years, the same playbook has been used to prop up toxic vaccines:

  • Since the dawn of vaccination, authorities have habitually doubled down on unsafe and ineffective vaccines, regardless of the push-back they received or the evidence against them.
  • Sustaining this has required increasingly brazen methods to censor and conceal the deluge of “extremely rare” injuries caused by an ever-expanding vaccination schedule.
  • Senator Ron Johnson, who has worked tirelessly to expose this coverup, recently held a Senate hearing whose title says it all: “Unmasked: How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Toward COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Signals.”
  • Faced with a tsunami of vaccine injuries too large for anyone to ignore, the FDA and CDC searched for a way to statistically dismiss it, eventually settling on comparing Moderna’s injury rate to Pfizer’s and declaring the vaccines “safe” because there was no major difference between the two.
  • When a senior FDA analyst pointed out this obvious flaw and suggested comparing them to less toxic vaccines instead, documents show the entire FDA turned against her to suppress her findings.As a result, dozens of conditions we have all seen the COVID vaccines cause were never officially linked to them—despite the data clearly showing they were.
  • The unprecedented damage caused by the COVID-19 vaccines has created a historic loss of trust in the parties who covered it up, giving us a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to force them to start telling the truth and end an immunization experiment that has profoundly damaged the health of our society.

Here is another sad example of Big Harma's ways:

Chemotherapy can wipe out someone's cancer, but it also usually wipes out their immune system. This makes a long-time cure impossible. And makes everyone fear cancer.

Dr. Patrick Soon, surgeon, biotech innovator and longtime immunotherapy builder, says he has a therapy that is curing his patients of cancer. Guess who won't look at what he has? Yep, Big Harma. They don't want a cancer cure.

Warning .... Dr. Soon is old earth. But other than that, he's shaking up the cancer industry with a treatment strategy that rebuilds immunity instead of dismantling it and shifting from “manage cancer” to potentially eliminating it. Imagine that!

Over 100 studies now confirm that the mRNA Covid-19 shots are the “largest carcinogenic exposure in history.”

A shocking South Korean study of 8.4 million people reported increased rates of several cancers following Covid-19 ‘vaccination’, including:

Overall cancer up +27% ‼️
Lung cancer by +53% ‼️
Prostate cancer by +69% ‼️
Thyroid cancer by +35% ‼️
Gastric cancer by +34% ‼️
Colorectal cancer by +28% ‼️
Breast cancer by +20% ‼️
.
mRNA is now showing up in aggressive tumors and has been found to SHUT DOWN tumor-suppressor genes like P53.

Whether you took the jab or not, we all NEED to be detoxing - mRNA is now inside ALL of us.

President Trump's USA Rededication To God Event May 17

“We’re going to rededicate America as ‘one nation under God.'” —President Donald Trump

Pentecost is May 24, if you were wondering. However, September 13 seems to be a more likely day for the Rapture (Rosh Hashanah) if it's happening this year. And if we do get past Rosh Hashanah this year, we'll forever end the theory we should "deduct 7 years for the Tribulation."




Colorado's Custody Warning: Misgender Your Child, Lose Your Child

In Colorado, lawmakers have passed a bill that could reshape the balance of power inside the American home.

House Bill 1312 is no longer theoretical—it has been enacted and is scheduled to take effect on October 1, 2026.

It doesn't send police to your door. It doesn't automatically remove children from parents.

But it does something more subtle—and in many ways more powerful. It gives the state a new lens through which to judge whether you deserve to raise your own child.




40% of Youth Think Political Violence Is Ok

Liz Peek Reports:

A new survey reveals that 40 percent of young Americans now consider political violence acceptable under certain circumstances — a number that should alarm every parent, educator, and citizen in this country. Peek says it’s a failure of the institutions charged with raising our next generation.

The culprit, she argues, is the progressive takeover of American classrooms. For decades, teachers’ unions and left-leaning administrators have pushed ideology over civic literacy, replacing the foundational ideals of democracy and free debate with grievance politics and identity-based division. The result is a generation that has never been taught why peaceful self-governance matters — or why political violence is antithetical to the republic.

I personally think it’s a lack of a biblical foundation that was undermined when they took God out of schools in 1973. It’s been downhill ever since…BP

These same youth are highly nervous...maybe fearing political violence?

A recent survey found slightly over half of young adults (18-26) now suffer from anxiety, 43% have panic attacks, a third take anxiety medications, 54% found they became worse in 2023, and 26% of them were diagnosed with a new mental health condition due to COVID-19.

All of this suggests we may not be utilizing the best approach to deal with anxiety—particularly since the drugs used to treat it are some of the most problematic ones on the market.

I wonder how this survey would break down between those who study their Bible daily vs those who don't. 🤔

If you want a more secular remedy for cutting down on anxiety, here's Dr. Mercola's suggestions to put you in a better mood.

Eating about three servings of flavonoid-rich foods like berries, apples, and citrus each day is linked to higher long-term happiness and optimism, helping stabilize your mood over time.

Specific fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, and oranges deliver the strongest benefits, making it easier to improve how you feel with simple, everyday food choices.

The more variety of colorful plant foods you eat, the more pathways in your brain you support, strengthening mood, focus, and emotional resilience at the same time.

What you eat affects how you feel within hours, while poor mood drives cravings for processed foods, creating either a positive or negative cycle that builds over time.

Removing ultraprocessed foods and combining whole-food nutrition with daily movement improves brain function, helping you maintain steady energy, clearer thinking, and a more balanced emotional state.

What you eat doesn't just fuel your body — it directly changes your brain chemistry, your blood flow, and how stable your emotions feel from hour to hour.

Flavonoids, the natural compounds found in colorful fruits and vegetables, actively influence neurotransmitters like dopamine, improve blood flow to your brain, and interact with your gut microbiome in ways that regulate inflammation and emotional stability.




Federal Court Says It's Ok To Discriminate Against Christians 

.
A federal court in Washington State rejected a motion to dismiss a lawsuit filed by a Christian couple who say they were denied an unrestricted foster license by the state because they wouldn't adhere to LGBT ideology.
.
In an opinion published Wednesday, Judge David G. Estudillo of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington denied a motion by the state to dismiss a lawsuit filed by Jennifer and Shane DeGross over the Washington Department of Children, Youth and Families' refusal to grant them a full foster care license.
.
"In essence, the Department has forced the DeGrosses to choose between forefeiting their freedom of speech to obtain an unrestricted license, or upholding their beliefs surrounding [Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, and Expression], and receiving a less-favorable license subject to certain requirements," Estudillo, a Biden appointee, stated.

Biden Admin Targeted Conservative Churches

Just The News Reports:

A new report released Thursday by the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias reveals what investigators describe as a "stark contrast" and a systemic double standard in how the Biden Internal Revenue Service policed American churches.

“The Biden IRS … [opened] multiple investigations into Christian churches focused on the content of their sermons. The IRS asked these churches for detailed information about their operations, not just about the alleged violations,” the task force wrote.

“But during the same time, when other houses of worship gave sermons that reflected different scriptural interpretations on culture war issues, or prayed for Democrat candidates, the Biden IRS appeared to take no action,” the group added.

The task force, which was established by President Donald Trump in an executive order last year, reviewed internal administration discussions, case files and prosecutorial decisions from the Biden administration across 17 federal agencies.

Beyond the IRS’s apparent targeting of conservative Christian churches, the task force concluded that the Biden administration’s prosecution strategy, internal policies and practices demonstrated an overall anti-Christian bias that permeated throughout the federal government during that period.

“No American should live in fear that the federal government will punish them for their faith,” said acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who chaired the task force. “As our report lays out, the Biden Administration’s actions devastated the lives of many Christian Americans. That devastation ended with President Trump.”




major new peer-reviewed study was just published in Medical Research Archives uncovering a shocking reversal: after two decades of steady progress, infant mortality surged 37% since 2020, congenital abnormality deaths jumped 46%, and registered live births collapsed by 24% — all coinciding with expanded vaccination campaigns in the Philippines.






Muslims Infiltrating More Than Just USA

.
15-second video that shows Europe being inundated with Muslims
.
.
If you thought the illegals in the USA were bad, Europe is actually worse! And it fits with Bible prophecy.
.
Immediately after the Rapture, the beheadings begin worldwide. Whether driven by starvation or religious persuasion when the restraining Holy Spirit is removed it will then be a world you can hardly imagine.
.
In the book of Revelation, there is an uncountable number of Christians who were murdered, with beheadings mentioned and that ties those atrocities to Muslim enthusiasts.
.
After the Rapture, depending on how long the United States lasts before Revelation 18 takes place and the entire nation is "burned" in one hour, with God's restraining Spirit removed, those left behind here in the USA could also see beheadings.
.
We just don’t know for sure how much time is between the Rapture and the nation "burns in one hour." But we do know that the New World leader will be conquering Europe and the Middle East.
.
And the above video tracks the mostly Muslim infiltration of Europe. Once they arrive in Europe they’re having 6 to 10 kids each. Today Europe has basically become a mere shadow of itself and seems to be 100% Satanically controlled as the stats in the article show.
.
From a prophetic view, it begs the question … if the Rapture doesn’t happen this September, can we make it seven years to 2033?
.
You have to assume Trump will pull a rabbit out of the hat because scripture seems to indicate that the United States will be clicking along with a good economy, food, energy, and social events until the Rapture (Matt 24/Luke 17/Rev 18).

Powered by advanced AI systems from NVIDIA, including the Jetson Thor platform and Isaac simulation tools, NEO represents a merging of robotics and artificial intelligence that has long been promised but never fully realized at scale. CQLJ!






Sunshine Heals!

.

Dr. Paul Marik Reports:

Why sunshine may protect you...

For decades, we’ve been told a simple story: Sunlight causes cancer. So avoid it. Block it. Fear it.

And yet, when you look closely at the biology—and the clinical data—the story becomes far more complicated.

In fact, in many patients with cancer, complete avoidance of sunlight may be doing more harm than good.

The Paradox of Sunlight

Sunlight is not just radiation. It is a biological signal—one that regulates multiple systems critical to cancer control:

  • Vitamin D metabolism
  • Immune function
  • Circadian rhythm
  • Mitochondrial signaling

At the center of this is vitamin D, a hormone—not a vitamin—that exerts profound anti-cancer effects.

It:

  • Promotes cell cycle arrest
  • Induces apoptosis
  • Enhances cellular differentiation
  • Reduces angiogenesis
  • Modulates the tumor microenvironment

Low vitamin D levels are consistently associated with worse outcomes, higher inflammation, and impaired immune surveillance.

This is not theoretical. This is observed across multiple cancers.

Sunlight and the Immune System

The immune system is the final line of defense against cancer progression.

Sunlight:

  • Enhances innate immune activity
  • Regulates T-cell function
  • Reduces chronic inflammatory signaling

In other words, it supports the very system that conventional therapies often suppress. This matters because cancer is not just a disease of cells. It's a disease of the host environment.

But Here’s the Catch

Sunlight is dose-dependent.

  • Chronic moderate exposure → generally protective
  • Intermittent intense exposure (sunburns) → clearly harmful

This explains an important clinical observation:

  • Basal and squamous cell cancers → linked to chronic exposure
  • Melanoma → more strongly linked to intermittent, intense exposure

It’s not just how much sun. It’s how you get it. Get a little at a time and build up a tan. It's a win-win.

(And this doesn't even get into the unbelievable problems with using sunscreen!)



Ben Franklin's first design for the Great Seal of America was inspired by the frontispiece of the Geneva Bible.






SPLC Exposed

.
Alex Newman Reports:
.
While the nation digests the bombshell federal indictment handed down against the Southern Poverty Law Center on April 21, 2026, most Americans are rightly focused on the hypocrisy.
.
But the SPLC’s giant and malign influence in U.S. “education” should be under the microscope, too.

A grand jury in Montgomery, Alabama, just charged the self-styled “civil rights” outfit with 11 counts for secretly funneling more than $3 million in donor funds to key figures within the very groups it claims to fight.

The Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations, and even the National Socialist (Nazi) Party of America benefited from its $800 billion coffers.

Criminal charges so far include wire fraud, false statements to banks, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. In short, prosecutors say the SPLC defrauded donors by paying extremists to “infiltrate” and then promote the very organizations it publicly denounced.




About The New Surgeon General Nominee

Maria Zeee Reports:

Trump’s new Surgeon General pick is facing backlash after resurfaced clips show her repeatedly urging Americans to receive COVID injections. The same injections that are now tied to record injury reports.

It’s quickly catching up with her as the nomination for Surgeon General puts everything under the microscope, raising serious questions about judgment at the highest level of public health.

During the COVID crisis, Dr. Nicole Saphier consistently pushed mass vaccination, telling older and vulnerable Americans they should “absolutely” get the shot, and later urging people to take any version available while claiming near-perfect effectiveness.

Dr. Saphier doubled down during interviews, calling the vaccines “very safe” and explaining she wished she could have taken more. As recently as 2024, she confirmed her stance hadn’t changed.

Now, federal reporting systems show over 1.6 million adverse event reports, more than 39,000 deaths, and over 220,000 hospitalizations linked to the COVID injections, making them one of the most reported pharmaceutical events in U.S. history.

Critics argue this goes beyond policy differences—it cuts right to the core of trust, transparency, and accountability in modern medicine.

So how does this square with “follow the science?”

HOWEVER (as a balance to what Zeee wrote above):

.
On the positive side, Saphier is pro-life! She has said: "An unborn child in the womb is a person." That's huge! Pro-lifers are thrilled with her nomination.
.
So let's hope she's changed her mind on the va((ine issue. Lots of people were duped.


Comparing Young-Earth Believers To Flat-Earthers

.
Article
.
.
The controversy surrounding William Lane Craig—a widely recognized evangelical philosopher, founder of Reasonable Faith, and an influential Christian debater of the modern era—highlights a growing divide, not just over the age of the earth, but over the authority and coherence of the Bible itself.
.
Craig's recent remarks comparing young-earth creationists to flat-earthers have struck a nerve.
.
The analogy isn't merely dismissive—it's strategic. By placing young-earth believers in the same category as a widely ridiculed fringe movement, the discussion is shifted away from evidence and into the realm of mockery.
.
It becomes easier to laugh than to engage. But for many Christians, the question of origins is not a side issue. It is foundational. If the early chapters of Genesis are treated as myth or allegory, what safeguards remain for the rest of Scripture?
.
None.



Virologist Ralph Baric, Ph.D., who collaborated with Dr. Anthony Fauci and researchers at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology during the COVID-19 pandemic, has lost his NIH grants and been placed on leave by the University of North Carolina, RealClearInvestigations reported.
.
Baric is considered a pioneer of gain-of-function research, which evidence suggests may have created SARS-CoV-2 and the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Downside To Antibiotics

.
Mercola Reports:

Most people assume antibiotics do their job and leave no trace — a short course, a quick recovery, and life goes on. But emerging research tells a very different story.

A large-scale study published in Nature Medicine reveals that a single course of antibiotics leaves a measurable imprint on your gut microbiome that persists for years, not weeks.

Your gut microbiome, the trillions of bacteria lining your digestive tract, doesn't just help you digest food. It plays a role in metabolic regulation, immune development, and processes ranging from inflammation to blood sugar control.

A single course of antibiotics reshapes your gut microbiome for years, altering digestion, immune function, and metabolic health long after the prescription ends.

Stronger antibiotics like clindamycin and fluoroquinolones remove large numbers of beneficial bacteria, leaving your gut less resilient and more prone to imbalance.

Most gut recovery happens within the first two years after antibiotics, but complete restoration is uncommon — leaving measurable compositional shifts that may influence digestion and metabolism for years.

Lower microbial diversity has been associated with changes in inflammation markers, blood sugar regulation, and resistance to harmful bacteria in observational research.

Limiting unnecessary antibiotics, avoiding hidden exposure in conventional meat and rebuilding your diet with simple, whole foods helps restore balance and protect long-term gut health.




We've shared a couple of articles in the past about SSRIs/antidepressant pills. So this was interesting:

Kennedy Starts a Push to Help Americans Quit Antidepressants

The New York Times Reports:

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday announced several initiatives intended to rein in the prescription of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, the most widely prescribed class of antidepressants, which he has described as exceptionally difficult to quit.

Mr. Kennedy has long signaled that reducing the use of psychiatric drugs would be an aim of his tenure, but Monday’s announcements were the first significant step in that direction.

The initiative focuses on the most widely prescribed class of psychiatric medications, first-line treatments for depression and anxiety that include Zoloft, Lexapro, Paxil and Prozac. In 2026, 16.6 percent of U.S. adults, or roughly one in six, reported currently taking an S.S.R.I.

Introduced nearly 40 years ago, the drugs surged in popularity, partly because they had fewer side effects than previous antidepressants and could be prescribed by general practitioners.

Clinicians typically told patients that going off S.S.R.I.s was straightforward. But many patients report withdrawal symptoms, including “brain zaps,” restlessness and flulike symptoms, and say they have received little support from clinicians in the process.




And another follow-up for those taking or considering the weight-loss drugs Ozempic, Wegovy, et al.

Lawsuits Allege Ozempic Is Causing Blindness

Peter McCullough Reports:

Unbridled enthusiasm for any drug is always prompts pause for concern.

Research suggests a potential, though rare, link between semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and a serious eye condition called non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), or "eye stroke," which can cause sudden, permanent vision loss.

There are more than 70 lawsuits pending in federal and state courts over eye problems, including blindness.

While studies indicate a higher risk for Ozempic users, experts emphasize that more research is needed to determine if the drug directly causes this, as patients with type 2 diabetes are already at higher risk.







The Existence Of Israel As A Nation Alone Signifies That Today Is A Time Like No Other

Article

CLICK HERE

The existence of Israel as a nation alone signifies that today is a time like no other. The Lord told Isaiah that Israel would become a nation again in just one day (Isaiah 66:8), and on May 14, 1948, and just as He predicted so long ago, the Jewish state miraculously emerged after a 2,000-year absence.

Nothing like that had ever happened throughout all of human history.

As the signs of the last days continue to multiply, we know that it’s just a matter of time before our Savior appears and takes us to the place He’s preparing for us in Heaven (John 14:2-3).
