Bible in the News

The spirit of Amalek is still alive very much today. The rise of America’s far-right is a testament to this fact. A war of ideas has been raging in the Republican Party - the party of conservatives in America. The traditionally pro-Israel consensus is being challenging by a much more sinister far-right, Orthodox Christian movement that certainly leans into the Amalekite spirit of Antisemitis...

In this Unscripted! conversation, John Billington and Peter Owen discuss current events related to Israel, the Middle East peace process, and the implications of rising anti-Semitism. They reflect on historical lessons from the Holocaust, the prophecies regarding the Jewish return to Israel, and the role of the Bible in shaping current events. The discussion also touches on the Pope’s first...

A storm is brewing in the court of public opinion. As conflicts rage in the Middle East, Western media outlets - once regarded as pillars of neutrality and truth - are being exposed for what they are increasingly becoming: instruments of bias and ideological warfare. This trend is especially clear in coverage concerning the State of Israel.

We might imagine that if Iran were to collapse it might be a result of Israel winning the war against them or America bombing their nuclear site, or the international sanctions. However, these are not the greatest problems or threats to Iran and the regime. The greatest threat against Iran today is a lack of water. A severe drought combined with poor mismanagement of the country's water resources,...

Jeremiah lists two phases to the return of the Jews to the land: the phase of fishers (the age of persuasion), and the phase of hunters, where they will be pushed by persecution. In this week’s Bible in the News, we see that the hunter phase is now becoming the reality that Jews of the diaspora are facing in everyday life.

Here is a video version: I think during COVID it was hard for us to understand the scope of the changes that we are about to see come across our world. Welcome to the Bible in the News this week. This is Tim Billington joining you. We've seen culture wars in society around us and they're only heating up. We're seeing resurgence of religion. Young people are believing in God more than they did befo...

All the living hostages have now been returned to Israel. Delays over the Hamas terror group's return of deceased hostages, is causing the ceasefire to hang in the balance. Hamas has again shown their true colours with lynchings and torture of their own people within the Gaza strip. Trump has been able to unite a large portion of the oil rich Gulf States to get behind his ceasefire agreement, whic...

A fragile yet significant ceasefire has taken effect in the Gaza Strip, marking a pivotal development in the long and bitter conflict between Israel and Hamas. The agreement—brokered with the direct involvement of  U.S. President Donald Trump—has raised compelling questions among Bible students: Could this be the beginning of a period of peace in the land of Israel, as foretold in...

A discussion about the anniversary of October 7th and the world's response. 

A discussion in light of the Bible – Antisemitism and its roots in light of the Bible – The current conflict in Israel and Gaza – The recognition of a Palestinian "state".

The world turned its back on Israel this past week, forgetting the atrocities of October 7 th and decided to reward the terrorists of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority by recognizing a state. The Bible is clear that hatred of Israel would prevail in the end, and this madness would ultimately bring the nations down. In this week’s Bible in the News, we examine statements made by world leade...

As we continue to watch the unfolding debate on free speech, following the assignation of Charlie Kirk, this week we turn our attention to the second state visit made by the US President to King Charles the III and the special relationship shared between the US and the UK. But, before we look at this, we will reflect on the purpose of Bible prophecy and why these things interest us.

There were two major events this last week, both related to the Bible, which at first may not seem to be connected. Not only do we find out that they are related, but we also find some important lessons and warnings for us.

The parallels between Israel’s return to the land the “second time” and the struggles Ezra and Nehemiah experienced in the “first” are amazing. The effort to “rebuild” according to the command of Almighty God cannot be thwarted, and regardless of the world’s campaign against Israel, God will continue to raise up Gentile Cyrus’s who will help Is...

Things are changing in the UK. In some ways, it feels like we are only one incident away from mass protests in the streets. 

This week, developments in the Middle East have once again drawn our attention to the prophetic Scriptures. Israel is escalating its military operations in Gaza City, while the region faces worsening famine and starvation. These events reflect the ongoing hostility from the Gaza Strip—the ancient territory of the Philistines—and speak to the latter-day prophecies concerning this region...

Here is a video presentation that exposes how media bias has given way to full scale propaganda, and how it fits in with the Bible.  There is a lot said about deception in the last days, we touch on a few spots.  The Catholic Church is deeply involved, but we focus on the fabrication of lies in Israel and Gaza, and how those lies are amplified by the media.

The war of dreams Ever since May 1948, when David Ben-Gurion read the declaration of the establishment of the State of Israel, there has been a war of dreams or a war of ideology taking place among the Jewish people in their land. 

 On October 6th, 2023, the eve of the October 7th attacks, Israel faced perhaps its most perilous strategic environment in half a century. Hamas was poised to launch its deadliest assault since the Yom Kippur War of 1973. To the north, Hezbollah boasted 100,000 trained fighters and an estimated arsenal of 120,000 missiles. Iran stood dominant, its nuclear weapons program advancing and its reg...

This spirit of liberty, equality, and fraternity has instigated into the populace of the globe, not peace on earth, but the pride of man.

Join us as we chat with Peter Owen about incredible events transpiring in the world. Most exciting is that the first signs of actual peace coming to the Mountains of Israel (Judea and Samaria, or the West Bank) are now visible. We have long waited for this, and it heralds the greatest events that have ever taken place on earth.

Glastonbury is a music festival in the UK held every year with a turnout of around 200,000 people. After the festival was held last week, one particular clip has been subject to huge amounts of criticism and scrutiny because of it’s clear antisemitism and incitement to violence.

Join us for an Unscripted! conversation as we discuss events in Iran and Israel in light of Bible prophecies. Spoiler... This is all leading to the return of the Messiah!

Trump sent B2 bombers to drop 6 30,000 lbs Massive Ordnance Penetrators to destroy Iran's Fordow nuclear site.   Video version:

As Bible in the News is in progress, another dramatic night is exploding in the Middle East. Yemen attacked Israel again. Israel responded with a targeted assassination. The Houthis Chief of Staff and his deputies were assassinated. Israel is responding to Iran’s indiscriminate missile attacks on civilian centers in Israel. Tehran is burning. Welcome to Bible in the News, this is David Billi...
