This is Dr. MaryAnn Diorio, novelist and life coach, welcoming you to another episode of Winning with the Word. Today is Monday, March 14, 2022, and this is Episode #11 of Series 2022. This episode is titled "Where Is the World Headed?" Wherever we turn, someone is giving an opinion of what is happening in our world. If you feel confused, you are not alone. The purpose of my message this week is to enlighten you to the truth of what is really going on. So, you may be asking, "How do you know what's really going on, Dr. MaryAnn? What is your source of information?" Great question! And one that should always be asked: What is the source of one's information? As an experienced scholar trained in in-depth, primary-source research techniques, I can personally vouch for the critical importance of not only knowing but, more importantly, trusting one's sources. Unless the source is accurate, we cannot be sure that the information from that source is accurate. So, let me assure you that my source is absolutely accurate. In fact, it is the most accurate source that exists, that has ever existed, and that will ever exist. My source is God Himself, and the information I am using to support my message is from the Book God Himself wrote; namely, the Bible. Now, before you hit the DELETE button or turn off this podcast, do yourself a big favor and get all the information, and only then draw your own conclusions. So, how can I say that the Bible is absolutely true? Well, here are three of many reasons: 1. God cannot lie. In Numbers 23: 19, the Bible says this: "God is not a man, so He does not lie. He is not human, so He does not change his mind. Has He ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through?"   2. God is Truth itself. In John 14: 6, the Bible records these words spoken by Jesus Christ: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one can come to the Father except through Me." 3. The Bible has never been wrong. All that the Bible has predicted up until our day has come to pass exactly as the Bible said it would. A few events remain to occur before the return of Christ. As I write, we are seeing those remaining events unfold before our very eyes, meaning that Christ's return is imminent. World events today are happening exactly as the Bible predicted thousands of years ago. In case you're wondering what world events I'm referring to, let me give you a few examples: 1. The Bible predicts in the Book of Ezekiel, chapter 38, that in the last days, Russia, Turkey, and Iran would form a coalition, together with some smaller countries, with the goal of invading Israel for its gas and oil reserves. Today, we see Russia,Turkey, and Iran in the process of forming that very coalition with the ultimate goal of invading Israel.  On March 21, 2021, an article written by Seth Frantzman and titled "Iran, Russia, and Turkey Signal Growing Alliance,"  was published in The Jerusalem Post. In the article, Mr. Frantzman shows how the relationships among Russia, Turkey,
