“Some words of wisdom from Mr. Webster that we today are sadly ignoring much to our peril.”  Admin One of the five greatest senators in U.S. history, the State of New Hampshire placed his statue in the U.S. Capitol’s Statuary Hall. His career spanned almost four decades, serving as secretary of State for Presidents William Harrison, John Tyler and Millard Fillmore. His name was Daniel Webster, born Jan. 18, 1782.

This is a wonderful herb with a tradition of use spanning back to ancient times. It has innumerable uses in both the kitchen and in herbal medicine. Did you know that rosemary has been associated with memory enhancement since long ago? The truth is that it has even been referred to from the latter part of the Elizabethan Era to the Early Romantic period as the “herb of remembrance”. In Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Ophelia says, “There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance.” It has also long been used as a symbol for remembrance during weddings, war commemorations and funerals in Europe and Australia.

“Please pray for these persecuted brethren. Reading stories like this makes one all the more appreciative of the freedom of worship we enjoy.”  Admin My name is Hua Van Tuong. I am a gospel preacher, pastoring for Immanuel Church in Danang city, Vietnam. I would like to present to you one issue as follows: Our church with more than 41 members had gathered to worship the Lord at above address from 2009 to the present.

Electrolytes are important because they are what your cells, especially nerve, heart, muscle, use to maintain voltages across their cell membranes and to carry electrical impulses, nerve impulses, and muscle contractions, across themselves and to other cells. Your kidneys work to keep the electrolyte concentrations in your blood constant despite changes in your body. For example, when you exercise, heavily, you lose electrolytes in your sweat, particularly sodium and potassium. These electrolytes must be replaced to keep the electrolyte concentrations of your body fluids constant. Another example where electrolyte drinks are important is when infants/children have chronic vomiting or diarrhea, [More]

Oftentimes, the simplest foods are best for your health, and this is certainly the case for nuts, in which Mother Nature has crafted a nearly perfect package of protein, healthy fats, fiber, plant sterols, antioxidants, and many vitamins and minerals. Among nuts, the case may be made that walnuts are king, as research shows they may boost your health in a number of ways at very easy-to-achieve “doses.” Eating just one ounce of walnuts a day (that’s about seven shelled walnuts) may be all it takes to take advantage of their beneficial properties. 7 Top Reasons to Eat Walnuts Walnuts [More]

Spices are a rich source of polyphenols, which means we should all be eating more of them. Polyphenols are powerful anti-oxidants that neutralize the free radicals formed by constant sun exposure and anti-microbial agents that are plants’ primary defense mechanism against microbiological attack. By ingesting foods that contain high levels of polyphenols, humans boost their immune systems, reduce cellular inflammation, and maintain an optimal balance between the good and bad microbes that live in our digestive tracts. Adding more spices to your diet is one way to increase the number of polyphenols entering your body on a regular basis, although, [More]

While the year 2014 will go down in history for having the highest level of global persecution of Christians in the modern era, current conditions suggest the worst is yet to come. Today, Open Doors released its annual World Watch List, which ranks the top 50 countries where it is most dangerous and difficult to be a Christian. This year, the threshold was higher for a country to make the list, indicating that worldwide levels of persecution have increased. Topping the 2015 list for the 13th consecutive year is North Korea. Africa saw the most rapid growth of persecution, while [More]

Accolades continue to come in for the first feature-length film created by American Family Studios – and some of the responses to Summer Snow have eternal consequences. Summer Snow (DVD cover)Kendra White, co-director/co-writer for Summer Snow, explains the theme of the movie. “Summer Snow is a film about a little eight-year-old girl who has recently lost her mom,” she tells OneNewsNow. “The family is trying to regroup and come together, and the mom had sent the little girl a letter challenging her to change the world. We see how one person’s actions, how one life can make a difference.” Christian [More]

“Just another phoney condition created to get more individuals on some mind altering drugs and in the future to justify the round up of those who might disagree with the governments setting up of a police state surveillance society. The real mental cases now appear to be in the psychiatric profession.” Admin Modern psychiatry has become a hotbed of corruption, particularly the kind that seeks to demonize and declare mentally ill anyone who deviates from what is regarded as the norm. This is abundantly evident in the latest installment of the industry’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or [More]

“This is good news! If you want to stop GMO foods then hit them where it hurts … in the pocketbook.”  Admin Americans are speaking with their wallets like never before in order to voice our true collective opinion of how corporations and Big Food are working with our food. One critical example of how we are demanding change can be seen where the sale of non-GMO Project Verified foods have more than doubled since 2013. Verified GMO-free food sales were $3 billion in 2013 and were $8.5 billion in 2014! Not only that, organic food sales overall are projected [More]

“Inspiring story.”  Admin George Washington Carver was born a slave during the Civil War, possibly in 1865, but there are no records. Within a few weeks, his father, who belonged to the next farm over, was killed in a log-hauling accident. Shortly after the Civil War, bushwhackers kidnapped infant George with his mother and sister. Moses Carver sent friends to track down the thieves and trade his best horse to retrieve them. The thieves only left baby George, lying on the ground, sick with the whooping cough. George never saw his mother and sister again. Illness claimed the lives of [More]

A few weeks ago, Merv Knight walked into my office door. Merv is a dear elder brother of mine, in his 80’s now, who lives in Australia. Merv Knight has served our persecuted brothers and sisters for more than 40 years. Perhaps his most important contribution to the work of serving the persecuted was summed up in the recent words of one of VOM’s executives: “Merv Knight has served as a spiritual advisor to us all.” Merv first became involved in the work of VOM in 1969 when he was part of a group of people who hosted Pastor Richard [More]

“Fascinating historical look back at what Thomas Jefferson meant by his “separation of church and state” remark in a letter he wrote and how that phrase is being used today in a way that’s the exact opposite of what Jefferson intended.”  Admin On Jan. 1, 1802, the people of Cheshire, Massachusetts, sent a giant block of cheese to President Thomas Jefferson, being presented by the famous Baptist preacher, John Leland. John Leland was then invited to preach to the president and Congress in the U.S. Capitol. The subject of his talk was “separation of church and state.” Baptists had been [More]

“Blackberry cobbler! I can already taste it,” my brother Grady said as we made our way to the field in front of our house. We were on a mission to fill the new basket swinging on his arm to the brim with ripe, juicy blackberries. He’d admired it in town weeks ago, and so our oldest sister went out and bought it for him. The basket was his to keep, but on one condition: “You have to fill it with berries,” she said. “I’ll whip up one of those cobblers you’re always going on about.” I quickly agreed to help–anything [More]

He was sure he’d heard someone call his name as he navigated the swollen river, but there was no one around…or was there? Since sunup I’d been out on the Missouri River, riding around in my 14-foot metal boat. The river was running high and fast, swollen from heavy fall rains. Lots of debris floated past, mainly branches from the willow trees that grew along the shore. Every once in a while an entangled mess would come my way, and I’d have to maneuver around it. But I was used to the outdoors, and to adventure–small boats, single-engine planes, hiking [More]

Still in his junior year, the Oregon Ducks’ Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota appears to be more than ready for the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day against the Florida State Seminoles – gearing up not with just a helmet and shoulder pads, but with the complete armor of God.

A diet containing GM soy and maize fed to rats for 30, 60, and 90 days caused a wide range of toxic effects, including DNA damage, abnormal sperm, blood changes, and damage to liver, kidney, and testes.

One of the ways that VOM sometimes encourages American Christians to support our brothers and sisters facing persecution is by asking our government leaders to speak out and act on their behalf. These efforts go back even to VOM’s founder, Richard Wurmbrand, who testified before a Senate committee and even took off his shirt in the hearing to show the deep torture scars on his body. But what is the best way to advocate for persecuted Christians to US officials? And does it make a difference? Do they listen? We’ve got answers to those questions and others this week on [More]

“It’s hard to believe that a body named the “Food Safety Authority” would make such an insane ruling since the dangers of GMO crops are well documented. They are clearly not interested in food safety but in furthering corporate interests at the expense of everyones health.”  Admin Nations and regions which want to stay free of genetically-modified crops will be banned from doing so under a devastating ruling by EU scientists. The decision, the first from the new European Food Safety Authority, means governments will be unable to stop the controversial plants being grown on their soil – effectively opening [More]
