Synopsis: The news of the day and how it affects you as a Christian. Leading up to the 4th of July (Independence Day) holiday, Jim brought many news stories to the attention of listeners. Here is a sample from this broadcast::
• A divided U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Monday that election officials can count mail-in ballots that arrive after election day as long as they are postmarked by or before that date.
• A federal judge blocked the President’s bid to federalize mail-in voting.

How Baptists And The King James Bible Were At The Spiritual Forefront Of The Founding Of The United States Of America In 1776
Host And Founder Of ‘Now The End Begins’ Geoffrey Grider:
America Owes A Debt To The Baptist Preachers Who Fought For Religious Liberty Against The Powers Of Church And State In 1776
The story of America’s founding cannot rightly be told without talking about the Baptists. Because while polished statesmen were debating liberty in halls of power, Baptist preachers were paying the price for it in the prison houses, courtrooms, and hostile colonial towns. They were fined, mocked, taxed, beaten down by religious establishments, and in some cases jailed simply for preaching the gospel without permission from the state. These were not men trying to build a secular nation without God; they were Bible believers fighting the old Roman spirit of state-controlled religion dressed up in Protestant clothing. The Baptists understood that Jesus Christ is the head of the church, not Caesar, not Congress, not a magistrate, and not a government-approved religious machine.
What the Baptists helped secure in America was not a godless public square, but liberty of conscience—freedom to preach, freedom to assemble, freedom to baptize believers, freedom to print and distribute the Bible, and freedom to worship God without asking permission from a state church. Men like John Leland and Isaac Backus stood against the religious powers of their day and helped push the nation toward the protections that would become the First Amendment. America was not founded as the Kingdom of God, and it was never the Church, but it was founded in the shadow of an open Bible. The tragedy of our day is that the liberty Baptists fought to preserve is now being used by modern America to reject the very God who made liberty worth having.
Also present at the founding of the United States of America was the “Bible of the Revolution”, a King James Bible New Testament published by Robert Aitken in 1771. It was so small the soliders of the Continential Army could easily carry it their pockets. And you wonder how it is we beat the strongest army on Earth? With the word of a King! By 1782, the fledgling Congress would authorize the publication of a complete King James Bible, and that became the pillar on which America began. The King James Bible was one of the foundational texts of English-speaking colonial America, shaping literacy, preaching, law, morals, rhetoric, and education. Harvard, Yale, and Princeton were all born in a world where King James scripture was treated as the central authority of truth, and ministers were among their chief educational products. Where we are here in 2026 is a Podcast for another day. Join us as we journey back to when America began, and meet the Baptists, and the Bible, that God used to start our nation.. ...

Harbinger’s Daily
By Amir Tsarfati: I have been greatly frustrated as I’ve watched what appears to be the capitulation of the United States to Iran. But in the grand scheme, what I feel doesn’t really matter. We don’t have to like everything that we see, because we know that in many cases it has to happen.
God has not ceded His authority to anyone else. There are times that He will allow events to take place that we will love and celebrate. There are other times when He will permit situations that will sadden us or frustrate us or even cause us anger. But we know that no matter what those occurrences are, they have to take place to move us further along God’s timeline. And every advance on that timeline means we are one step closer to being taken up to meet our Savior in the clouds!
That being said, this whole MoU that’s been agreed upon between the US and Iran is a complete balagan! How does a nearly defeated enemy end up in a better position than when it first went to war? It’s absurd. It’s like the Allies making it to Berlin in 1945 but stopping before a final victory, then signing an agreement that leaves the Nazi party in power. Make it make sense!
In my last article, I listed out the many things that have been done by President Trump and the United States that have been such a blessing to Israel. I’ve always held admiration for America’s current leader. But just because you hold someone in high respect, it doesn’t mean you have to always agree with him. And calling him out for some of his decisions does not mean that you’ve suddenly “switched camps” and become an “out there” socialist liberal. I don’t know the heart of the president, so I can only speculate regarding the motives of some of his recent decisions. ...

By PNW Staff: For generations, the West was supposed to be the safe place.
Europe and North America were where Jewish families rebuilt after the Holocaust, where they found opportunity, legal protection, religious freedom, and a sense that the horrors of the past would never again be tolerated. Britain, Canada, France, Australia, and the United States were not perfect, but they were viewed as havens compared to the persecution Jews had known across much of history.
That assumption is now collapsing.
A striking new report from Israel’s Aliyah and Integration Ministry shows that aliyah from Western nations is surging. In 2025, 22,522 new immigrants arrived in Israel. But the most important part of the story is where they came from: immigration from the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and Canada rose by 25 percent, accounting for 38 percent of all new arrivals, compared with 21 percent the year before.
That is not just a demographic statistic. It is a spiritual and civilizational warning. ...

Israel 365 News
By Staff Writer: As the United States prepares to mark its 250th anniversary, a new survey released by the Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) shows that one of the communities that has helped build the nation since its founding is facing a pervasive and escalating threat. Jews have been part of American life since before the foundation of United States, arriving in New Amsterdam in 1654 and counted among the merchants, soldiers, and citizens who supported the Revolution.
Today, as the country celebrates its semiquincentennial anniversary, a comprehensive study commissioned by CAM’s Antisemitism Research Center (ARC) finds that a majority of Jewish Americans — 57% — experienced antisemitism in the past year, equivalent to approximately 3.3 million Jewish adults alongside an estimated 250,000 Jewish children living in affected households.
The threat is not only a phenomenon that is felt by Jewish Americans, but it can also be seen in their changing behavior. 38% said they now hide things that identify them as Jewish, 32% have avoided posting anything online that would identify them as Jewish, and 23% — about 1.2 million adults — said they had skipped Jewish events or observances out of fear.
The survey also found broad Jewish communal support for the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism after reading it. 71% of those polled said the definition accurately described antisemitism, and more than two-thirds said it should be adopted by institutions. Only 4% opposed the definition, with just 1% in strong opposition. ...

Geller Report
By Pamela Geller: California Democrats are advancing a new bill that would establish two Muslim holy days as state holidays while authorizing the state to develop a new model curriculum for students to “acknowledge and celebrate” these Islamic observances in the classroom.
Funny how the Democrats are militant about separation of church and state but mosque and state? Not so much. ...

Front Page Magazine
By Daniel Greenfield: How bad is the Democratic Party getting? Here’s a preview from the state party platform in Washington, courtesy of JNS’s Jessica Russak-Hoffman
The Democrat State platform claims that, “there has been a dramatic resurgence in antisemitism in recent years on all sides of the political spectrum, due in part to actions taken by the Israeli government” essentially blaming Jews for antisemitism.
Announces that the party rejects “racist political ideologies rooted in supremacy, including forms of Zionism, that perpetuate settler colonialism, occupation, apartheid””, accused Israel of starvation and mass murder
Then it goes on to argue for replacing Holocaust education with teaching that Israel committed genocide by fighting Hamas. The language is cleverly evasive and obtuse, but you just have to know how to read it. ...
