Red Alert: Queen Elizabeth II, the End of an Era, or a New Beginning?

For those in the evangelical Christian community, I would venture to guess Queen Elizabeth II, whose passing on September 8 touched nearly every corner of the globe, her station was met with a certain amount of respect, some frustration, and a lot of misunderstanding.

Red Alert: “It’s Not Because You are Jewish; It’s Because of Israel”
