“Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭28‬-‭29‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The Entry of Queen Caroline into Jerusalem (1814) In 1814, Queen Caroline of Brunswick, the estranged wife of Britain’s Prince Regent (later King George IV), travelled through the Eastern Mediterranean and made a dramatic visit to Jerusalem. Her journey reflected a wider European fascination with the Holy Land during the decline of the Ottoman Empire, when many Western travellers viewed Jerusalem through romantic and biblical imagination rather than everyday reality. Caroline was accompanied and influenced by figures such as Lady Hester Stanhope, an independent and unconventional British aristocrat who later lived permanently in the Middle East, and by religious ideas circulating in Britain at the time that believed the restoration of Jerusalem and the Jewish people would play a role in the Second Coming of Christ. One influential voice was Richard Brothers, a religious visionary who claimed divine authority and wrote about a future “New Jerusalem.” Although his ideas were considered extreme in his lifetime, similar restorationist beliefs later influenced British religious thinking and policy in the region. Caroline’s symbolic entry into Jerusalem — riding on a donkey in imitation of Christ — illustrates how faith, imagination, politics, and personal ambition intertwined in early nineteenth-century European encounters with the Holy Land. This period helped shape how Western nations later viewed Jerusalem and the wider Middle East. Interesting period of history.

Hero.

This is wrong. Regional Australians or those who are moving there are losing the very thing they moved for; cleanliness, open spaces, lifestyle and affordability. Blocks in Ballarat now average just 454m² what Melbourne had five years ago. This isn’t organic growth. It’s policy failure and unchecked foreign demand distorting our housing market. Australians shouldn’t be competing with overseas capital for their first home. @OneNationAus will restrict foreign ownership of Australian housing so Australians come first.

I’ve been a gun owner for 20+ years without incident. My community should not be the target for overzealous government agents. Inappropriate immigration and ineffective policing is very obviously our problem in Australia 🇦🇺 Vote accordingly.

233 years ago, the leaders of the French Revolution who now made up the country's National Convention were in the middle of a continuous 36-hour session debating perhaps their most important question yet: what to do with King Louis XVI. He'd been captured in the summer of 1791 while trying to flee the country and had been imprisoned ever since. Following a six-week trial, he was found guilty of high treason and other crimes on January 15, 1793, with 693 deputies voting yes and not a single one voting no. The next day, as the National Convention spent a day and a half deciding whether to execute him or not, the vote was much closer. In the end, Louis XVI was condemned to death by a majority of just one vote, a tally that would have been an even deadlock had his own cousin not voted for his execution. Five days later, on January 21, that execution took place as Louis XVI was beheaded by guillotine at the Place de la Révolution.

Licensed firearms owners are not the problem in Australia 🇦🇺 Vote @OneNationAus if you agree.

This book shows how currency manipulation and political monetary control always produce the same pathologies, regardless which century humanity finds itself in.

No race based identity politics with One Nation whatsoever. How refreshing*

Pray for Iranians 😔

First it was Minns; now it’s Albanese. By recalling Parliament to push through draconian laws, the government is bypassing proper scrutiny to: Increase surveillance on law-abiding firearms owners. Attack the right to free speech and assembly. With only three days for the public to respond - and only three days for the AFP to understand what they are enforcing - this is a recipe for disaster. Governments should not punish the majority for the acts of a minority. The Libertarian Party opposes these changes. We believe the "unintended consequences" of these laws pose a greater threat than the problems they claim to solve. #freespeech #righttoprotest #libertarian

Rest in peace brother. A Lion amongst men 🦁

According to the Free Speech Union of Australia, the Anthony Albanese government's 144-page Censorship Bill: - Mimics the UK provisions (where 30 people a day are arrested for social media posts), but with even fewer safeguards. - Includes hate speech laws, which were originally conceived by the Soviet Union under Josef Stalin.

How sad 😞

‪Copper normally rises when the economy is genuinely growing. Silver normally rises when people are losing trust in money. When both hit record highs together, it tells us growth isn’t organic, it’s being inflated by printed money.‬ That’s not prosperity, this is a sugar hit that will be paid for by future generations of Australians‬ 🇦🇺
