Pope Francis Blesses The ‘Christ In The Rubble’ Nativity Scene That Depicts Baby Jesus Wearing The Keffiyeh Headscarf Of The Palestinian People
Outrage exploded online after Pope Francis inaugurated a nativity scene featuring a Palestinian keffiyeh wrapped around Jesus’s manger, in St. Peter’s Square on Saturday.
If you’ve been following the exploits of Pope Francis for any length of time, then you know just how anti-Christian and unbiblical he actually is. One of the ways he likes to show his hostility towards the God of the Bible is in his choices of s0-called nativity scenes. Back in 2020, Pope Francis unveiled a nativity scene that was straight out of a horror movie, something that could have been plucked from the deepest recesses of a pagan temple. Here in 2024, the Catholic monarch has put his ‘blessing’ on the ‘Christ In The Rubble’, a depiction of the baby Jesus as a Palestinian wearing the traditional keffiyeh scarf of a Palestinian. Check out our article on what the Bible has to say about Palestine.
“And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.” John 19:19 (KJB)
The actual baby Jesus was born in a place called Migdal Eder, the northern tip of Bethlehem, the tower of the flock where spotless lambs were born for use in the Temple in Jerusalem. Your King James Bible refers to this as Bethlehem Ephratah, the place where Rachel died. The fact that in 2024 that same land is, as lost people like to say, ‘Palestinian territory’, doesn’t change the equation one tiny, little bit. Pope Francis is of Antichrist, and everything he does and everything he says is helping to prepare the way for his arrival. Jesus was, and is, not only a Jew but the coming King of the Jews at the Second Advent. And when all is said and done, Zechariah 14:21 tells us that “in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts.” There won’t be a ‘palestinian’ anywhere in Jerusalem or Judea.
Nativity scenes around the world have added a new accessory this Christmas season: the keffiyeh.
FROM THE NY POST: In a controversial take on the classic holiday display, some churches are replacing the baby Jesus’s traditional swaddling blanket with the black-and-white scarf — which has become a symbol of pro-Palestine activism. The manger used as a crib, meanwhile, is being surrounded by piles of rubble.
Even Pope Francis has gotten in on it. But many Christians and pro-Israel advocates are outraged by the apparent politicization of a sacred religious symbol. So-called “Christ in the Rubble” displays have become so popular that they’ve popped up everywhere from St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Washington, DC, to All Saints Episcopal Church in Pasadena, California, to the Vatican.
According to the Palestinian pastor who started the trend, the scenes are meant to send the message that, if Jesus were born in the same spot today, it would be in war-torn Palestine. Although Bethlehem is located in modern-day Palestine, Jesus was very much not a Palestinian. Many Christian faith leaders are offended, included Pastor Mark Burns of Harvest Faith Center in Easley, South Carolina.
“The fact of the matter is, Jesus was a Jew… To suggest Jesus was a Palestinian is to push a political agenda that is extremely offensive,” Burns told The Post. “The nativity is for everyone. It’s something that should surpass politics.”
Pastor Johnny Ellison of Chatt Valley Church in Phenix City, Alabama agreed: “If the Pope, or any group, is trying to turn the baby Jesus into a metaphor for Palestinian resistance, then they have failed before even getting started. Making the baby Jesus a symbol of military resistance is a defective biblical model.”
Outrage exploded online after Pope Francis inaugurated a nativity scene, designed by two artists from Bethlehem and featuring a keffiyeh wrapped around Jesus’s manger, in St. Peter’s Square on Saturday.
“Dressing baby Jesus in a keffiyeh is not only a cynical exploitation of the manger scene for political and propagandistic purposes, but it is also an absurd rewriting of history,” Dr. André Villeneuve, a professor of Old Testament and Biblical Languages at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, told The Post. “Everyone knows that Jesus was a Jew, a son of Israel. If he had been born in our generation, he would pray in a synagogue—not in a church or mosque.”
Luke Moon, executive director of the Philos Project which promotes Christian-Jewish relations, told The Post: “The Church should be telling the [nativity] story as it is written in the Bible — the story of a Jewish girl giving birth to a very special Jewish baby in a manger in the Jewish town of Bethlehem. It’s a story that shouldn’t be politicized by the Vatican.” READ MORE

Iran Posts An Apocalyptic And Cryptic Message On Social Media Showing Tel Aviv Being Targeted By A Nuclear Missile In Retaliation For Attack By Israel
Is Iran getting ready to launch a nuclear missile on Tel Aviv in retaliation for Israel’s attack on Tehran?
Iran’s latest social media post showing a missile obliterating Tel Aviv is not just another piece of propaganda—it is a chilling glimpse into the mindset of a regime that openly dreams of wiping Israel off the map. When a nation posts imagery of a nuclear-style strike against a civilian city, it is sending a message that goes far beyond rhetoric. It is psychological warfare, intimidation, and a declaration that they see the destruction of Israel not as a tragedy, but as a victory.
“And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the LORD.” Jeremiah 49:38 (KJB)
Iranian officials have repeatedly warned that if war escalates they will strike “the heart of Tel Aviv,” a threat that has been echoed in propaganda banners and social media messaging tied to the regime. In the current conflict, Iran has already launched missile barrages toward Israeli cities after strikes on Iranian territory, pushing the Middle East closer to a direct regional war than at any point in decades. The Middle East stands right now on the brink of a war that no one but Trump and Hegseth wants but likely can’t be stopped if things continue to escalate much further.
Iran threatens to nuke Israel with chilling image showing missile obliterating Tel Aviv
FROM THE UK EXPRESS: Iran has shared a chilling image of a nuclear missile striking an Israeli city, which appears to be Tel Aviv. In a post on X, the account previously belonging to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned that “Khorramshahr is ahead”, in reference to the ballistic missile named after the Iranian city.

Included in the post was also a striking image of the missile being developed underground, fired from a mobile launcher, and hitting what appears to be the Israeli city. In another post, the account promised consequences, “by God’s grace”, for “the Zionist regime”.
It said: “The Zionist regime has made a big mistake, and its consequences will make the regime desperate, by God’s grace.”
The city depicted in the image appears to be Tel Aviv, with an Israeli flag and coastal skyline visible. This comes after Tehran launched an overnight attack of cluster bombs targeting Tel Aviv, which were seen in shocking videos flying through the air before crashing into the ground. Huge blazes erupt as they smash into their targets, with witnesses watching on and filming the explosions. The cluster bombs open up as they zero in on their targets, sending around twenty smaller munitions flying out in a radius of roughly five miles. Each of the smaller missiles carries around 2.5kg of explosives, potentially causing huge damage.
Israel also inflicted the worst night of bombing on Tehran since the war began last weekend, launching a “broad-scale wave of strikes” aimed at wiping out the Islamic regime. The intense bombardment on Friday morning saw explosions ringing out across the city, and plumes of smoke and fire lighting up the sky. Residents said their homes shook and they were left without internet and power, plunging them into darkness. A man in his 30s told the BBC: “The house was shaking for five minutes straight. Last night was the worst night.” READ MORE

Donald Trump
Boots On The Ground, Soaring Oil Prices, Europe Sending Nuclear Battleships And Thousands Of Americans Stranded But Trump Says Don’t Call It A War
Trump and Vance promised us no new wars, and they’ve broken that promise in a spectacular end times assault on Iran and the Middle East
During the 2024 campaign, Donald Trump and JD Vance hammered a message that electrified millions of voters weary of endless Middle East entanglements: no new wars. It became a centerpiece of the America First pitch. After decades of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Syria, the promise sounded like a breath of fresh air. Trump’s MAGA and QAnon followers went for it hook, line and sinker. But today, with the outbreak of what’s shaping up into a substantial war involving Iran, that campaign slogan is colliding head-on with reality.
“It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.” Psalm 118:9 (KJB)
Trump and Vance told voters they would keep America out of new conflicts. Yet now the United States finds itself engaged in direct military confrontation with one of the most volatile regimes in the Middle East. Whether supporters try to frame it as a “limited operation” or critics call it a full-scale war, one thing is undeniable — the promise of “no new wars” has evaporated. This is not about partisan politics. This is about a biblical truth that Christians should have learned long ago: never put your trust in political leaders. They will let you down every time. Trump and Vance promised restraint. Now there is war with Iran. Why does this happen? Because no political leader — no matter how strong, how popular, or how sincere — has the power to override the prophetic course that God has already set for this world. Jesus Christ told us plainly what the last days would look like.
“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.” Matthew 24:6,7 (KJB)
That means no campaign slogan, no peace initiative, and no political movement can stop the trajectory of the last days. The closer we get to the end of the Church Age, the more unstable the world becomes — especially in the Middle East. And that brings us directly to Iran. From a prophetic standpoint, the Middle East will remain a powder keg because Israel sits at the center of God’s prophetic program. The Bible says that Jerusalem will become the focal point of global tension.

French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday ordered France’s nuclear-powered aircraft carrier to move from the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean to help protect allied assets during the war in the Middle East. Macron said the Charles de Gaulle carrier will be escorted by frigates and its air wing. In a prerecorded speech on French TV, Macron added that Rafale fighter jets, air-defense systems and airborne radar systems have been deployed over the past few hours in the Middle East. Trump may not be calling it a war, but it looks like everybody else is.
Trump and Vance both campaigned on the slogan of ‘No More Wars!’ but that was then and this is now
FROM THE ATLANITC: If J. D. Vance promised one thing during the 2024 presidential campaign, it was that America would not enter into a war with Iran of the kind that is currently raging. “America doesn’t have to constantly police every region of the world,” Vance told the comedian Tim Dillon on his podcast. He continued: “Our interest, I think very much, is in not going to war with Iran. It would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country.” In another podcast interview, with Shawn Ryan, in September 2024, Vance even said that a war between Israel and Iran was in fact “the most likely and most dangerous scenario” for provoking World War III.
These arguments look farcical now that President Trump has chosen—months after bombing Iran’s nuclear facilities and pronouncing its enrichment efforts “completely and totally obliterated”—to join Israel in launching a war on the Islamic Republic. The ensuing conflagration now involves a dozen countries in the Middle East. Trump says that he will do “whatever it takes” militarily and that “wars can be fought ‘forever.’” Vance’s X account, normally hyperactive, went silent in the days after bombs began falling on Saturday morning. The vice president was not at Mar-a-Lago with Trump as he oversaw the attack. The administration instead released a photo of him running a secondary meeting at the White House, flanked by a can of Diet Mountain Dew and a sullen-looking Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence.

The Massive High Security Miami Correctional Facility And ICE Detainee Center In Bunker Hill, Indiana, Needs King James Bibles For Its 3,188 Inmates
The Miami Correctional Facility in Indiana needs King James and Spanish Bibles for their thousands of inmates and ICE detainees
The Miami Correctional Facility, situated near Bunker Hill, Indiana, on the grounds of the Grissom Joint Air Reserve Base, was established in 1998 as a state prison. This facility accommodates adult males and includes inmates with high, medium, and minimum-security classifications. Miami is the largest prison in Indiana, boasting a capacity to house 3,188 prisoners when at full occupancy, including ICE detainees. Man, oh man, if you’re looking for fertile ground to start planting the seeds of the gospel, this is it.
“But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.” Matthew 13:8,9 (KJB)
Chaplain Blair writes: “Our incarcerated population is currently about 1000 listed as General Christian or Catholic. We offer services each week lead by Chaplains and/or outside volunteers. Offenders are able to attend multiple times per week and often request bibles for personal use. Our ICE detainee population is about 400 General Christian or Catholic. Services are ran to match the incarcerated population (citizens legally incarcerated). We are a level 3 / level 4 prison, meaning we are classified as medium-high to high security. Most of the population are between the ages of 20-40. All religious materials we as Chaplains can distribute must come from outside donations from organizations like yours.” Christian, can you get excited by all this? Here is our opportunity to send the preserved word of God into a facility filled to overflowing with Catholics, ICE detainees and Christian and non-Christian inmates. Talk about going into all the world with the gospel. Bibles Behind Bars was raised up for this exact purpose, for such a time as this. Come help us to keep the supply lines open at the Miami Correctional Facility!
