Several years ago when Michael Snyder was a Plain Truth senior writer, he interviewed several nuclear war experts and physicists during a Washington DC science conference. That produced the popular Plain Truth cover article “Humanity won’t end this way,” referencing concerns about nuclear war which Mr. Herbert Armstrong later made into a World Tomorrow telecast. His work and article were later turned into a booklet on nuclear war where he shared a byline with Mr. Armstrong. It’s online at various COG historical sites.
Today we talk about the state of the world that could possibly be on the brink of World War III. The war between Russia and Ukraine has escalated. Where is the end. Listen to Mike Snyder's insight about current dangerous conditions.
The podcast was made after church services and you may hear the voices of children playing.

The Bible is by far the most proliferated book throughout all history. No matter how man has tried to judge and destroy this literature, it has turned back on those critics and has judged them.
Ken and I reflect on our experience with the Bible and what understanding it has given us.

As we approach the fall Holy Day season, I have been thinking a lot about biblical prophecy. The upcoming High Days literally burst with prophetic meaning. Essentially one half of the plan of God – the death and resurrection of the prophesied Messiah, the time for us to come out of sin and come under the sacrifice of Christ, and the coming of the powerful Holy Spirit – these have been moved over into the “fulfilled” category of Bible prophecy. Now, we move into the unfulfilled group. What is God revealing to us?

On July 19, 2024 our and many other people’s dear friend Les Booth left this earthly life. He was dearly beloved and a month later after his passing there remains an emptiness in our friendships and church fellowship with his absence.
Les was a devout Christian, a devoted husband and father, a thinker. He was also an enthusiast in various interests including the latest Technolgy, web development and most recently AI. I wanted to be in line to interview him about AI and did so in February of 2024 and did two podcasts with him for The Kubik Report.
Les Booth helped me with my first website 28 years ago. He designed the art work that is still the welcoming graphic on my site www.kubik.org.
He taught me HTML when there were no WSYWIG tools such as Front Page of Dreamweaver. He was always ahead of his time.
As a memorial to Les Booth I would like to replay my first podcast with him January 25 about AI.

Today I will answer a question that we have all asked ourselves:
What will happen to me when AND AFTER I die?
When the lights go out in this life and our bodies are lifeless, where will we be?
Is this life all there is?
Is there an afterlife?
There are so many ideas.
How can you KNOW the answer that is the TRUTH!!??
Why am I asking these questions?
We are confronted with them when death happens. We need to think through these questions and answers at a time other than at a funeral.
Death, the death of close people to us is constant. We are stunned, we think about it. We hope that there will be “something” in another dimension....when we will meet our loved ones and be reunited with them.
It is important to speak on it with authority, confidence and mostly HOPE ABOUT THE RESURECTION which means:
Again from below to stand
I would like to talk about OUR RESURRECTION primarily from the 15th chapter of I Corinthians that covers five important aspects of our resurrection.
I’ll speak about the FOUNDATION of this HOPE IMPORTANCE THE ORDER OF THE RESURRECTION THE NATURE ULTIMATE VICTORYThis is not human philosophy, authority. The Truth will set us free.
So, please listen.

It's only been four days since the close call with Donald Trump's failed assassination. Now a frenzied Republican National Convention has all but declared him President of the United States .While US citizens focus on domestic matters, the world is watching to see how the coming leadership of the nation will play out in Bible Prophecy. What will international alignments be now? What about Ukraine, NATO, Russia, Israel/Hamas/ Taiwan? Melvin Rhodes analyzes what is set before us. What should Christians be thinking and doing.
