Iran Has No Idea Where It Planted Mines In Strait Of Hormuz

Iran reportedly failed to locate all the naval mines it deployed in the Strait of Hormuz, preventing it from quickly reopening the critical shipping lane. Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh said in an interview with ITV that the Iranian regime has laid naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. officials say Iranian forces seeded the strait with mines last month, however, Iran did not systematically track every placement and, in some cases, deployed mines in ways that allowed them to drift from their original positions, according to The New York Times.

people marching on stage

The Selective Service System has submitted a proposal to automatically register eligible American men for the draft by December.  The proposal, by the independent U.S. government agency, will apply to men ages 18-24, according to CNBC. It was submitted to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, about a month after the hostilities in Iran were initiated.  If enacted, the proposal will implement a provision that Congress passed as part of the National Defense Authorization Act in December. There has not been a military draft since 1973, in the final months of the Vietnam War. In 2024, according to the Selective Service System, 81% of all eligible men were registered.

Training for Peace in a World of War

knight

He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples. They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. (Isaiah 2:4)

This paints a future shaped by God’s justice and peace, where instruments of violence become tools for life. This vision reminds us that God’s kingdom moves toward restoration, not destruction. While the world trains for conflict, God trains hearts for peace. As His people, we live toward that coming reality now—choosing reconciliation over retaliation, obedience over pride, and hope over fear. Trust that God is the final Judge, and let His promise shape how you live, love, and pursue peace today.

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You, God, for walking with me today and being the light in the darkness. Protect me in the chaos and keep me safe. In Jesus Name Amen

Why be religious?

5.0.2

Do not be religious the bible forbids it! As we are new Christians or are looking for answers to all the questions to the universe it is hard and sometimes confusing. Over here this guy said to follow the books of law, but wait a second this other person said that you can do what ever you want, no she said it is entirely different. The tug of war that we feel sometimes can tear us apart and make so that we turn away from what is most important! God and what he has shared with us in the bible is what matters! Did you realize that when you go to a church you are not there for the people at the church but for the one that sent us there in the first place, the people at the church are there to share in the love that God has given each and every one of us (they are there for support). This tug of war is the gateway to a religious person! For me I will sit down and pray and ask God to show me what he wants for me it is different for everyone but still it is the same.

  1. We are saved through Faith in Christ Romans 3: 28  For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. Galatians 2:16  know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified.
  2. Always remember: Galatians 3:10-13 10 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.” 11 Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.” 12 The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, it says, “The person who does these things will live by them.” 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.
