The Times of the Gentiles

The prophet Amos informed us that “God doesn’t do anything without first revealing His secrets to His servants the prophets” (Amos 3:7).

Brexit

When Theresa May was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, she told the country in her New Year message that if her Brexit deal was passed by Parliament, the country could move forward together and begin a new chapter.
