Jonathan Cahn's NYT Best-Seller 'The Paradigm' Ties News From Israel to Ancient Blueprint - HAMILTON STRATEGIES

President Trump at the Israel Museum (U.S. Embassy Tel Aviv/Public Domain)
President Donald Trump made shocking international headlines in December when he announced that the United States would officially recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and ordered the U.S. Embassy be relocated there. And on his recent trip to the Holy Land in late January, Vice President Mike Pence announced that the embassy move was already under way and would open in 2019.
What is the significance of a recognition of a capital or the location of an embassy? These decisive actions show America's solidarity with Israel, says New York Timesbest-selling author Jonathan Cahn.
Cahn's newest best-seller, The Paradigm: The Ancient Blueprint That Holds the Mystery of Our Times (TheParadigmMystery.com), has much to say about the nation of Israel and the ancient ties to modern history.
"Few would deny that a dangerous metamorphosis is taking place in our world," Cahn says. "But not many realize that this metamorphosis is following the course of an ancient transformation—that of ancient Israel. Why Israel? Israel is the paradigm nation, the nation that stands as the pattern or model—for good or bad, better or worse—to the rest of the world. Israel is the exemplar nation. So what exactly happened? The Paradigm reveals a nation and an entire civilization, undergoing the dangerous metamorphosis we are all witnessing. This concerns America, in particular, and Western civilization and world civilization, in general.
"But it's not just an overall picture of decline," Cahn adds. "The amazing thing is that this ancient paradigm, or master blueprint, reveals the actual events of our times, the leaders of our times, even the exact dates when events are to take place in our times. The idea that an ancient Middle Eastern mystery could reveal the rise of today's world leaders sounds unbelievable—but it's true."
This ancient paradigm or master blueprint lies behind the events of the modern world—what's taking place right now before our eyes. It originated in ancient times, yet it reveals what is happening right now.
"This paradigm foretells the rise and fall of modern leaders and governments," Cahn continues. "It not only reveals the events of the modern world, but the timing of those events—revealing not only the year when a particular event is to take pace but, in some cases, the exact date—including the exact date when one of the most critical events of modern times took place. In fact, if one had known the mystery of The Paradigm years back, one could have marked on one's calendar the exact date of this event, years before it took place. The paradigm has affected all of our lives. We've all been part of its replaying. It's amazing, eerie and stunning. It even contains a warning concerning what lies ahead in the days to come."
The Paradigm, which has both stunned and engaged readers, debuted as a New York Times best-seller at No. 5 in late 2017. It is one of the most explosive and astounding books of 2017 and removes the veil behind the leaders, governments, events and scandals of modern times.
The Paradigm is also included on the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association's Annual Bestselling Christian Books List of 2017, at No. 10 for non-fiction and No. 14 overall. Cahn's previous hit, The Book of Mysteries, came in at No. 3 in fiction and No. 18 overall.
Cahn, who caused a stir throughout America and the globe with the release of his instant New York Times best-seller The Harbinger, which sold over 2 million copies, followed that earth-shattering work with The Mystery of the Shemitah and The Book of Mysteries, also New York Times best-sellers. In fact, the mysteries of the immensely popular The Harbinger continue and are intertwined with the mysteries of The Paradigm.
The Paradigm is published by Frontline, an imprint of Charisma House.

American Pastors Plan Pilgrimage to Israel, Urge Believers to Stand With God's Chosen Ones - HAMILTON STRATEGIES CHARISMA NEWS

Standing With Israel

As headlines continue to come out of Israel during one of the world's most turbulent times, the American Pastors Network (APN, AmericanPastorsNetwork.net) regularly creates a dialogue about the matters that should be important to all Christians, especially through its daily radio ministry, "Stand in the Gap Today."
APN President Sam Rohrer, along with "Stand in the Gap Today" co-hosts Gary Dull of the Pennsylvania Pastors Network (PPN, papastors.net) and Dave Kistler of the North Carolina Pastors Network (NCPN, ncpastors.net), works to engages listeners by considering today's news from a constitutional and biblical perspective—including headlines from the Holy Land.
"News from Israel should be extremely critical to Christians," Rohrer said. "And the importance of Israel to today's Christian leaders cannot be overstated. The simple reason we must support the state of Israel is because God does. The Jews are His chosen people, and He gave His promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob that He would not only bless them but also bless every nation that blesses them and curse every nation that curses them. Throughout history, God has miraculously protected the Jewish people although the nations around them have sought to annihilate them.
"Additionally, we cannot ignore the biblical significance of standing with God's chosen people in Israel," Rohrer continued. "What America does in relationship to the support of Israel is the difference between experiencing God's blessing or God's judgment on our nation. Additionally, Israel has long been America's strongest ally in the Middle East, continues to be the only truly democratic nation in that region and is the only nation in the Middle East that allows true religious freedom."
Because of the important ties between the U.S. and Israel, as well as the impact on today's churches, the American Pastors Network will co-host an upcoming trip to Israel, partnering with Prophecy Today, led by Jimmy DeYoung, for a tour beginning March 7, 2018. During the trip, travelers can experience Israel like never before, and see the sights and sounds of the Holy Land while considering Israel's past, examining current events in light of biblical prophecy and understanding God's plan for the future.
APN noted that especially pastors who take a pilgrimage to Israel find the experience to be personally rewarding, and those rewards flow into their ministry, as they return to their congregations with new passion, a deeper spiritual relationship with Christ and a Bible that went from black and white to color.

With New Optimism, Christians Are Waking Up - HAMILTON STRATEGIES CHARISMA NEWS

With New Optimism, Christians Are Waking Up

HAMILTON STRATEGIES  CHARISMA NEWS
Over the past several months, Christian voters have had much to celebrate. From strides in religious liberties protections to bills defending the unborn, some of President Donald Trump's promised agenda is being realized. And the optimism of those who put him in office is palpable.
Award-winning journalist and author Stephen E. Strang says that feeling is reminiscent of election night in Nov. 2016, when Christians sensed the nation had turned a corner—given a window of opportunity and a reprieve from God with Trump's election.
In Strang's new book, God and Donald Trump, set for release on Nov. 7, nearly one year to the day after the historic election, the author recounts some of those election night scenes and Christians' hope for the future. God and Donald Trump also reveals the strategies, behind-the-scenes activity and profound voices that helped shape the dramatic events of the election and presidency thus far.
"I believe that Christians are waking up," Strang said. "The evidence we've seen tells me that there is a new optimism and a new spirit rising all across the land. Many Christians believed they had to vote for Donald Trump or the downward spiral of the past eight years would continue. There is no doubt things would have gotten worse under Hillary Clinton's administration. Even though our own culture and all of Western civilization remains in a downward spiral, there is hope. Two years ago, I would have never suspected that God would raise up a brash billionaire from Queens, New York, to undertake the transformation of America, not only politically but also spiritually. I expected to vote for Ted Cruz in November, but when he left the race, I had to reconsider my options. Now, I have a better understanding of why that reorientation was necessary.
"Could it be that this intersection of God and Donald Trump, or the simultaneous shifts in the United States of America and the kingdom of God, are much more than a random anomaly of coincidental occurrences?" Strang continued. "Is it possible that Donald Trump was raised up suddenly out of the obscurity of the business and entertainment environment with what Frank Amedia called a 'breaker anointing' that was activated to make a way for our nation to return to God? Is it the Creator's plan that the diverse factions of the Christian church be united in a way to take back our country for God?"
A website and video for God and Donald Trump, which contains a foreword from presidential hopeful and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, may be found at GodandDonaldTrump.com; view the video here. Visitors to the site can also download a free chapter and preorder the book.
Strang is an award-winning journalist and successful businessman who began his career as a newspaper reporter at the Orlando Sentinel before founding a Christian publishing house and media company while interviewing and writing about nearly every Christian leader in the country over the past four decades.
God and Donald Trump is published by Frontline, an imprint of Charisma House, which has published books that challenge, encourage, teach and equip Christians, including 13 New York Times best-sellers.

Other current rankings for The Paradigm include the following:
The Paradigm, the fourth book from the acclaimed author, is already in its third printing with more than 350,000 copies—just over three weeks since its debut.
Cahn's publisher said there's not necessarily a secret to the author's success other than excellent content, a committed writer and publishing team, and loyal readers.
"Jonathan Cahn is a very disciplined author who is proactive in support of his books," said Marcos Perez, publisher and executive vice president of Charisma House. "Given his history and track record, complemented by our relationships with accounts and audience constituencies, we were able to do a seamless weave that culminated in wonderful timing in the marketplace. Our analytics led us to make the right calls in key moments, for which we are grateful."

Did an Ancient Blueprint Foretell Trump's Victory and Clinton's Defeat 3,000 Years Before the Election? - BETH HARRISON/HAMILTON STRATEGIES CHARISMA NEWS

Did an Ancient Blueprint Foretell Trump's Victory and Clinton's Defeat 3,000 Years Before the Election?

BETH HARRISON/HAMILTON STRATEGIES  CHARISMA NEWS
Last week, Fox News reported that twice-defeated presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton is now considering preaching in the Methodist church because she has an interest in "sharing her faith."
That revelation might have come as a shock to many, but the soon-to-be-released book from New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Cahn, The Paradigm: The Ancient Blueprint That Holds the Mystery of Our Times (www.TheParadigmMystery.com), will not only shake Washington and change the way millions view current events and how they shape our lives, but also shed light on the biggest issues of our day.
For example, Cahn tells readers how the ancient paradigm predicted Donald Trump's presidential victory and Hillary Clinton's defeat years before it happened.
"In the last American presidential election, virtually every pollster and analyst predicted a decisive victory for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump," Cahn says. "But one major source predicted the opposite years before it happened—thousands of years before it happened!"
Cahn's newest book, The Paradigm, will reveal a newly uncovered blueprint that foretold the outcome of the last election nearly 3,000 years before it took place. The Paradigm will open up the ancient template that predicted the decisive victory for Trump and the dramatic fall of Clinton.
The revelation of the astonishing outcome of the last election is only one of the multitude of revelations and discoveries surrounding the ancient blueprint in The Paradigm, which will also remove the veil behind the leaders, the governments, the events, even the scandals of modern times. Its disclosures are so detailed and its revelations so precise that it even speaks of events before they happen. The book will undoubtedly anger some, but will amaze and stun many others with its discoveries.
Those who preorder at one of several retailers before the Sept. 19 release date will receive a package worth more than $70 that includes Cahn's best-selling book The Harbinger in audiobook and e-book format, Cahn's best-selling The Book of Mysteries-book and The Paradigm e-book (sent via email on the release date). Preorders and can be placed now at the following retailers:
Cahn, who caused a stir throughout America and the globe with the release of his instant New York Times best-seller The Harbinger, which sold over 2 million copies, followed that earth-shattering work with The Mystery of the Shemitah and The Book of Mysteries, also New York Times best-sellers. In fact, the mysteries of the immensely popular The Harbinger continue and are intertwined with the mysteries of The Paradigm.
Long before his previous best-selling books, Cahn was known for opening the deep mysteries of Scripture and for teachings of prophetic import. He leads Hope of the World and the Jerusalem Center/Beth Israel just outside New York City in Wayne, New Jersey. He is also a much sought-after speaker, having addressed the United Nations on Capitol Hill and millions of people around the world. Cahn has also been called the prophetic voice of our generation.
The Paradigm is published by Frontline, an imprint of Charisma House, which has published books that challenge, encourage, teach and equip Christians, including 13 New York Times best-sellers.

Have Millennials Abandoned Their Faith? - HAMILTON STRATEGIES CHARISMA NEWS

Have Millennials Abandoned Their Faith?

Join us on the new C-Pop podcast where Taylor and Jessilyn discuss, debate and sometimes deride pop culture with a strong sense of humor and a focus on Christ. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.

What's one of the fastest-growing religious identifications among millennials?
It's actually not a religion at all. It's "none."
Roughly a quarter of all Americans (23 percent), according to the Pew Research Center, call themselves "nones" or are not affiliated with any religion or faith. Just 10 years ago, a similar survey found that 16 percent said their religion was "nothing in particular"—a significant jump. And of these "nones," a large number are millennials, with more than a third of this young generation saying they do not identify with a faith.
To religion and culture expert, national radio host and author Dr. Alex McFarland (alexmcfarland.com), this is alarming. And he's addressing the crisis in his new book, Abandoned Faith: Why Millennials Are Walking Away and How You Can Lead Them Home, co-authored with apologist and evangelist Jason Jimenez. "Abandoned Faith" is available for pre-order now at alexmcfarland.com, with an official release date from Tyndale Publishing and Focus on the Family of March 1 (in stores March 7).
"There are many reasons why young people may become disillusioned with church, religious organizations or faith in general, such as mistrust, skepticism, rebelling against a negative experience, pressure from atheist or agnostic friends, or a variety of other influences," McFarland says. "But regardless of why they leave their faith behind, the real tragedy is that many millennials are heading into life without Christ. And we must find a way to bring them back into the fold. That's why this new book, Abandoned Faith, is so important for anyone who loves a millennial."
Millennials, born between 1980 and 2000, constitute a group of more than 80 million individuals who are technologically astute, ethnically diverse, and culturally and vibrantly engaged. Yet they face high unemployment and massive debt. These characteristics, coupled with the fact that they comprise the largest number of religiously unaffiliated Americans, should be concerning to every parent, grandparent, pastor and potential employer.
Moved by these and other hard-hitting facts, McFarland and Jimenez interview in Abandoned Faith top Christian leaders who work with millennials and families. Their research and conversations shed new light on what Christian parents must do to reach their young adult children. Abandoned Faith also offers a strong voice of hope for parents, church leaders and others who serve the millennial generation.
McFarland, who speaks to more than 30,000 young people every year, says that teens, especially, tend to look to their parents, spiritual leaders at their church and teachers when it comes to life's biggest decisions. The media and their peers come in at the bottom of the list.
"From speaking with tens of thousands of young people over the years, I have learned that if they have just a few adults who will come alongside them and encourage them to grow in their faith, there's a much better chance they will remain in the church and rooted in Jesus long into adulthood," he said. "So one or two positive influences can make a world of difference in the faith—and life—of a young person."
Another part of Pew's Religious Landscape Study looked as reasons why "nones" were disconnected to a particular faith. Survey respondents provided hundreds of different answers, but many shared a few common themes, according to Pew.
About half of current religious "nones" who were raised in a religion (49 percent) indicate that a lack of belief led them to move away from religion. Others reference science, logic, common sense, lack of evidence or simply say they do not believe in God.
Another 20 percent express an opposition to organized religion in general, citing a dislike to the hierarchical nature of religious groups, the thought that religion is too much like a business and clergy sexual abuse scandals as reasons for their stance. A similar share (18 percent) say they are religiously unsure. A tenth say they were raised with a religious affiliation, and may hold certain beliefs, but they are not currently taking part in religious practices.
"Most of them simply say they don't go to church or engage in other religious rituals," Pew reported, "while others say they are too busy for religion."
McFarland's new blog at alexmcfarland.com features posts such as "It's the End of Celebrities Fawning over the White House as We Knew It, and I Feel Fine," "5 Strategies for Reaching Skeptics," "Pitch These 9 Fallacies Before Making Moral Choices" and "Don't Let Our Kids Be Eaten by Lions." Read more here.
Also serving as Director for Christian Worldview and Apologetics at North Greenville University (ngu.edu) in Greenville, South Carolina, McFarland is the author of Stand Strong AmericaThe God You Thought You Knew: Exposing the 10 Biggest Myths About Christianity10 Questions Every Christian Must Answer10 Issues That Divide Christians10 Answers for Skeptics and the Stand series of devotions for teens. McFarland is an expert in the field of apologetics—the practice of defending the Christian faith in a world where faith in Christ is plummeting at alarming rates.
McFarland has spent years working with young people and takes their questions to heart. He has preached in more than 1,300 churches and has been featured at conferences such as the Billy Graham School of Evangelism, Focus on the Family's "Big Dig" and California's "Spirit West Coast," sharing the platform with Chuck Colson, Eric Metaxas, Josh McDowell and others.
Part evangelist, part apologist, part educator and part broadcaster, McFarland focuses on communicating the message of salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ. He co-hosts the daily, live radio program "Exploring the Word" on American Family Radio's Talk Network, heard on more than 125 stations across the country, and the weekly television show "Viral Truth," airing on the National Religious Broadcasters Network, which he co-hosts with Jimenez.
