The Running of the Swine: 1,2,3, then 4, now 5

As this ‘swine flu’ races towards becoming a full fledged pandemic, at least according to ‘the authorities’, I will remind readers once again that the only Authority we believers need concern ourselves with is that of the Lord God Almighty. The Pharisees set themselves up as the authorities in Jesus’ day yet Jesus referred to them as ‘snakes and vipers’ which was an appropriate moniker since these human authorities took their marching orders from The Serpent aka Satan not God. The apostles Peter and John told those very same authorities to take a hike: Acts 4:18: ‘And they (the authorities) called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. 19: But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye’. So dear friends, please keep this fact in mind as you watch this alleged unfolding health crisis that you do not cast your pearls before the herd of swine lest they turn and rend you in pieces. And how do we cast our pearls before swine? By paying heed to the ‘News’ more than to the Word of God; by being more attuned to the voice of CNN than the voice of the Holy Ghost. As promised God will guide us through this time of sorrows that is just beginning; things will get a whole lot worse before they get better.

Psalm 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. 8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. 9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; 10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. I believe the days for the fulfillment of these promises from Psalm 91 are just ahead of us; I do not know of any time in history that 10,000 have fallen and the Godly left untouched but such days are surely ahead of us.

Judgment is just beginning on a worldwide scale (regions of the world are always under judgment), but since the days of Noah we have not had a worldwide judgment. It is the global scale of judgment that gives us confidence that the Day of the Lord is at hand. If this so–called pandemic spreads across the globe then it is a sure sign that a snare has come upon the whole Earth not just in one region. Even during the Spanish flu epidemic, and during WWII many parts of the world were left untouched; I believe this will not be the case this time around. There will be literally no place left to hide, so the best thing we believers can do is to hide in plain sight. As we continue to put our faith in God and not in man, He will cover us with his feathers, and under His wings shall we trust. This covering of God with His wings and feathers is analogous to having an invisible, impenetrable force field protecting us, kind of like the shields of the USS Enterprise in Star Trek. It is this impenetrable shield of faith that will keep all the viruses and bugs and plagues out of our bodies, not the flimsy masks that they show people wearing in Mexico.

Here is a list of signs that Jesus gave that we need to watch for as the end of the world approaches. Be not afraid; this is not the end of the Earth but rather the end of the Babylonian system of individual commercial greed that has plagued mankind since the days of Nimrod.

Matthew 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

When Jesus does return and set up his everlasting Kingdom; his government upon Earth, then it goes without saying that this Satanic, evil, usurious, fraudulent banking system run by lovers of money that currently rules our planet will be forever abolished. So the current world economic, political, and religious systems that we currently live under will be automatically done away with once Jesus Christ comes back for there will no place for commerce in God’s world where everything He has will be freely given to us. Romans 8:32: He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Signs of the second coming of Jesus Christ and of the end of the world

· Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Religious deception is already abounding with false Christs everywhere. The only protection we have against such deception is to study God’s Word, The Holy Bible, for ourselves, and to pray. People who do not study to show themselves approved to God fall easy prey to charlatans and false prophets.

· And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. Wars are presently going on, for example the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war, and rumors of war abound such as war between Iran and Israel, North and South Korea, India and Pakistan, Russia and Georgia, and many on the African continent. Internal strife is rising and will continue to rise as the economic crisis deepens, for example in Iceland, Greece, Latvia, Bolivia and many other nations across the globe.

· And there shall be famines: Many reports are coming out suggesting a ‘food’ disaster in the making. California, Texas, Florida, parts of China, and India and Australia are all suffering drought conditions that will affect the world’s food supply in coming years. In Australia things had gotten so bad that the earth literally caught fire destroying whole towns.

· And Pestilences: The Swine flu is perhaps the first of the deadly pestilences that will sweep the globe in the coming years decimating the Earth’s population. The Earth will literally spew out its inhabitants for their wickedness.

· Earthquakes: From NZ to Alaska, from the Arctic to the Antarctic there are more and more earthquakes every year. I am of the belief that there is nothing random as to where these earthquakes strike. As judgment increases in severity we will witness more and more populated areas being struck such as the one in Italy recently.

As the birth pangs of a woman in travail increase in severity and come closer and closer together so too will these signs increase in severity and begin overlapping each other so that we will simultaneously have major wars, major famines, major plagues and major earthquakes hitting the Earth with increasing severity. Fast, pray and study the Bible, the rest is up to God, He will either bring you through alive in this body or He will let your body die but take your soul to a much safer place where no power can touch it. Either way you will be safe!

The Jolly Prince and 99 months

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8021450.stm / Prince Charles has addressed Italy's lower house of Parliament where he said there were now just 99 months to save the world from environmental disaster. He said that the world was like the Titanic, heading towards a melting iceberg. Prince Charles has also met Pope Benedict XVI as part of a two-day visit to Italy.

A reader sent me the above link and asked my opinion on Prince Chuck’s claim that we only have 99 months to avert ‘environmental disaster’. One thing that immediately struck me as odd was the fact that he specified the time period as exactly 99 months, why not a 100 months or 98 months? Why give us a time frame which is several years long in months rather than years? After all 99 months is over 8 years, so why not say we only have 8 years or 10 years, why 99 months? It seems to me that this 99 month figure has simply been pulled out of a hat, and cited in months for dramatic effect, nothing more. More interesting is the fact that he made the claim addressing Italy’s parliament in Rome, and also met with the Pope. The city of Rome that mockingly calls itself the eternal city (in mockery of the true Eternal City, the heavenly Jerusalem), and the Vatican in particular is the synagogue of Satan, and St. Peter’s chair is the seat of Satan upon Earth, it is the throne of the god of this world. So it is not surprising that the Prince who represents his god would make such dire pronouncements from the unholy city from where his god reigns over the kings of the Earth. As an aside with this ‘Swine flu’ (o what an appropriate name) now spreading worldwide, can WWIII be far behind? The present pope’s last namesake, Pope Benedict XV presided over WWI and the Spanish flu; will Pope Benedict XVI preside over WWIII, and another plague? Well, only time will tell!

In regards to Prince Charles’ claim that we have only 99 months to avoid environmental disaster, this is how I view such information. We know that Charles and Co. are insiders and have certain plans that 'they' intend to implement. They may even believe that these are their plans but actually they are the plans of the devil. All these complex financial, economic, political, environmental, social and religious games that the elite play are too complex to have been designed and coordinated by mere human beings. So these plans are formulated in heavenly places where the devil is headquartered, and they are then relayed to their human minions probably using technologies we are not aware of, or they may be directly downloaded into the person's mind as they indulge in secret ceremonies, black rites that all the elite partake in as they worship the devil. That is how wars, pandemics, economic collapses etc. are actually planned by devils and then implemented through their human agents.

Taking this line of thinking one step further it is clear to us who believe in God, that the devil is not free to do whatever he wants; he is 100% restricted in all his actions, and can only go as far as God allows him to go. This restriction is very well illustrated in the book of Job where the limitations to Satan's actions are set by God not by Satan himself. So before Satan can start a war or send a pandemic or cause an economic collapse the command must be given to him by God from on high. Lamentations 3:37, 'Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not? Satan may have some freedom in how he executes these plans, as for example in the case of Job; God allowed Satan to do certain things but did not specify how he should do them. Such judgmental commands are given by God only when man's evil reaches a certain level and even then he would rather see us repent and be saved than be destroyed. Lam. 3:³²But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies. 3³For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men. However except for the case of Nineveh in Jonah’s time, I do not know of any other biblical example of a whole people repenting and changing and thus avoiding God’s judgment. So when judgment does go forth, is it just instantaneous and catches everyone without warning? No, God incessantly warns us long before judgment begins, and sends judgment only as a last resort, and then only in waves not all at once.

The bible provides a clear record of the judgments that God will send upon Earth as a result of man’s wickedness; the book of Revelation in particular gives us a detailed list of the coming disasters including ‘environmental disasters.’ A lot of planning precedes any major activity that man participates in; for example, a war is not executed without a great deal of training and planning going into it beforehand. Knowing that God’s day of wrath, ‘day’ being more than a 24 hour period, will be poured out upon man in the last days, Satan has been planning for this day for millennia. I am sure he has a whole host working on all sorts of plans and war games preparing for this time. And having a bird’s eye view of what is transpiring down here Satan can make some good educated guesses as to the timing of when these things will happen; I say educated guesses because I do not believe God has given the exact timetable of his planned actions to Satan or to any man. If Satan has told the jolly Prince that there are only 99 months left to environmental disaster, then there is some truth to it since all Satan’s lies are based on perversion of the truth. But the greater truth is that Jesus has already given us clear signs as to what to look for that would reveal to us that judgment was coming. In essence we don’t need the jolly Prince or the Pope or the club of Rome or the committee of 300 or any other person or group to tell us that environmental disaster is coming; the Word of God tells us clearly that it is coming. We also have been given signs that such events such not take us by surprise; we should we well aware when they are close at hand; as a matter of fact we should be better able to assess the timing than Satan or his minions, human or non–human.

In conclusion I would say that we should focus more on praying and fasting than on Satan and his lying whores in the media or positions of leadership. Our God will do nothing except he reveals it to his servants beforehand. Amos 3:7: Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. This 99 month story is fishy at best because unless Charles is God he can in no way predict it that precisely. Besides, what does he mean by ‘environmental disaster’ in 99 months? Does he mean that our whole ecology will collapse and we will be in another ice age? I should rephrase that because I do not believe there ever was an ice age as so–called science claims. ‘Environmental disaster’ is such an encompassing term that it could mean a million different things. The book of Revelation however is very clear on what these disasters entail such as contaminated waters, destruction of foliage, asteroid impacts and more. We don’t need to pay much attention to vague pronouncements by enemies of Jesus Christ; pronouncements made from the very seat of Satan and designed to instill fear into us. More likely this is an agenda pronouncement designed to extract more money from sheeple in the form of an environmental tax. ‘Environmental disaster’ is coming in 99 months so we need a worldwide tax, collected by the UN of course, in order to save the planet. O the irony of it all! The very same people busy destroying the planet are the same people claiming to save the planet. But God knows who is doing what and they will not escape even if they build their ‘environmental shelters’ in the very center of hell itself.

Revelation 11:18: And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. It might behoove the jolly Prince to pay heed to this scripture.

Swine Flu – Déjà vu all over again!!!

The speed at which this so-called Swine flu seems to be spreading around the globe is truly astounding. Reading the headlines reminds me of the SARS epidemic or alleged SARS epidemic in Toronto in 2003. I was in Toronto at that time and still have a ‘Toronto Life’ magazine from that year that predicted that SARS was not the big one but that the big one was inevitable; that it was not matter of ‘if’ but ‘when’ the next one would hit and sweep millions, if not billions of lives away. The article showed pictures from 1918, and statistics of how many people perished from that pandemic; it also predicted quarantines and other restrictions on freedom of movement that would result from such a global pandemic. That SARS was truly a surreal time for me as I was not as uninformed as the majority of sheeple, and it was obvious to me that it was a planned event to further the agenda of control, and depopulation. The symptoms of the so-called SARS disease were so generic that anyone with a common cold could have been diagnosed with the disease. The supposed victims of the disease were generally elderly people and / or people with some ongoing medical problems that could just as easily been the cause of their demise. The suggested preventative measures could only be viewed as laughable or ludicrous, depending on your mood that day. I still remember the chief medical officer of Toronto, the late Ms. Sheila Brasur doing demonstrations on TV on how to wash your hands. Here’s a summary of that epidemic, as it was labeled by the media - http://www.labourcouncil.ca/sars.html . Interestingly this article is dated May 1, 2003 which puts the SARS timing in just about the same time frame as the current ‘Swine flu’.

Basically the conclusion that most thinking people drew from the SARS episode was that the whole thing was an exercise to condition the sheeple into accepting totalitarian measures in the name of a ‘Health Emergency.’ To date I would venture to say that no one can identify a SARS virus because it just did not exist. Without the complicity of the duplicitous media there would have no SARS epidemic. Is this ‘Swine flu’ déjà vu all over again? I would have to think so, except this exercise, and let’s pray that this just an exercise, is on a much bigger global scale whereas SARS was more localized, limited to Toronto and Hong Kong. Actually I should not say that only the media were duplicitous, the gamut of duplicity ran from top to bottom; from government officials to medical personnel to media journalists to the man on the street. Why do I include the man on the street in this list? Simply because without the man on the street’s ignorance in choosing to stay uninformed that any of the other levels involved were able to fool millions into believing in an imaginary ‘epidemic’?

The Swine flu, in my opinion is a SARS like exercise but on a much larger scale. I believe the real thing will come soon, maybe even later this year when it will suddenly be discovered that ‘Swine flu’ has mutated into a more virulent and deadlier strain that will kill millions if not hundreds of millions, maybe even billions. I’ll go ahead and name this mutated version ‘The Serpent Flu’ or alternately ‘The Dragon Flu’. Watch for these restrictions that will be placed on the populace as a result of the Swine flu:

1. Quarantines: You land at the airport, your temperature is 99 degrees and you have a slight cough, and voila! Off you go to a sterilized containment area where you can be vaccinated and hosed down to make you healthy again or not! Even during the SARS episode many people were quarantined, and for no justifiable reason except to condition us to accept this as a safe practice.

2. Travel Restrictions: The WHO (not the band) issued a travel advisory during SARS suggesting travel to Toronto be not undertaken unless absolutely necessary. This time around I believe the advisory will not be a suggestion but there maybe an actual shutdown of airports and even containment of whole cities.

3. Health Emergency Powers will be enacted: The result will be forced immunizations at best, and in the extreme case complete extermination of certain populated areas for containment purposes as depicted in the movie ‘Outbreak’, and more graphically in the appropriately named movie, ‘Resident Evil 2: Apocalypse’. Totalitarianism or martial law will be imposed for the sake our health; why else would they do it? Another highly recommended movie is 12 Monkeys, pay close attention to the newspaper headlines in that movie which quite closely parallel those of what we are reading today. The headlines reveal the progression; the virus has been discovered, the virus has spread to a few cities, the virus has jumped borders, the virus has gone global, the virus has killed 5 billion and the remnant can only survive underground. Predictive programming?

4. Herding of people into confined area such as school gyms: This may happen on a voluntary basis, at least initially as the media hypes the need for all to check themselves in to these facilities that the government will have so lovingly prepared for their subjects. Most of the deaths in the 1918 pandemic occurred in hospitals, and in containment areas. You want to experience what this flue does, then go where you will be certain to contract it; a hospital or other place where a whole lot more sick people are confined. If this does turn into a Biblical level pandemic then your best bet will to get as far away from urban centers as possible, and under no circumstance must you get vaccinated or go to a containment area. Once voluntary containment stops then I believe there may be forced round ups.

5. Life as we have known it for the past few generations will be gone forever: This in itself is not a bad thing for ‘The American Way’ is not God’s way. All we needs must remember is that these things happen not because man wills it but because God commands it. However our God is indeed merciful who does not willing afflict the children of men nor does he forget mercy in wrath. And he alone has power over all these plagues, Rev. 16:9 ‘And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.’

In conclusion what should we do to protect ourselves, get immunized (what an oxymoron)? Take Tamiflu? Wash our hands till there’s no skin left on them? Wear a flimsy made in China mask that wouldn’t keep a grain of sand out let alone a microscopic virus? What to do, what to do, what to do??? Well I say do nothing that the media or the officials tell you to do. Rather let the Word of God shows us what we should do, and here it is in black and white:

Joel 2:12 – 13: Therefore also now, (1) saith the LORD, (2) turn ye even to me with all your heart, (3) and with fasting, (4) and with weeping, and with mourning: (5) And rend your heart, and not your garments, and (6) turn unto the LORD your God: (7) for he is gracious and merciful, (8) slow to anger, (9) and of great kindness, (10) and repenteth him of the evil. In these short 2 verses may be found all that God would tell us to do and I have numbered each command (not suggestion) that will bring us safely through whatever wicked comes our way.

1. …Saith the Lord: this is God telling us what to do not the CDC or WHO or CNN.
2. Turn ye even to me with all your heart – do not look at the things that are coming upon the world but rather upon him who has power over these plagues. We need to make a U turn towards God and not look back like Lot’s wife. Forget the world for the world passeth away.
3. And with fasting – this is a lifestyle whose time has come; fasting is not only good for the body it is essential for spiritual growth. Fasting is the one way that we move from a body-centric life to a God centered life. Without fasting I do not believe we will be able to survive the things that are coming upon the Earth. And the time to practice is now not when the stores run out of food.
4. And with weeping, and with mourning: The coming destruction will be tragic, to say the least and not the time to say, ‘I told you so’. Jeremiah wept at the horror of the destruction of Jerusalem, and so must we weep for the horror that is soon coming upon the land, if per chance God will stay his hand.
5. And rend your heart, and not your garments: rending of garments was a display of grief practiced all over the Middle East. This display, however was superficial not genuine in most cases and done only for public relations purposes. God is not interested in PR; the tragedy that is coming is real, so how can our grief also not be real? It all boils down to having greater concern for the needs of others rather than our own; then our bowels of compassion will be move just as Jesus’ were whenever he encountered distress and misery.
6. Turn unto the LORD your God: Twice repeated admonition; reminding us again that in these times we need not turn to the ‘authorities’ but rather to THE AUTHORITY on high who is able to bring us through fires, floods, plagues and pestilences.
7. For he is gracious and merciful: What a beautiful description of the character of our God; the evil of man compels him to pour judgment upon man but even in the midst of judgment he is ready to be gracious and merciful to all that look for his mercy. Habakkuk 3:2: O LORD, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy. In the midst of wrath we still know that his mercy endures forever.
8. Slow to anger: I can vouch from personal experience that God is not just slow to anger; he gets angry slower than a turtle running a marathon. Like a child pushing a parent to the limit and the parent yet exercising patience, my God has been patient with me even when I have tested his patience to what I thought must have been the limit of that patience. Slow to anger he is but watch out when he does get angry; the things I see happening in the world convince me that his anger cannot be withheld much longer.
9. And of great kindness: We forget that God is The Almighty; he can crush us without a moment’s notice whenever he might choose to do so. So what prevents him from doing so instantly whenever we or the world goes down the road of wickedness and evil? It is his character, he is of great kindness by nature and it is this nature that holds him back or else he would have wrapped up this world the day Adam ate of the forbidden fruit.
10. And repenteth him of the evil: The word ‘REPENT’ in the bible does not mean penance which is a Roman Catholic Babylonian doctrine. Repent means to change one’s mind. God himself is telling us that he is more than willing to change his mind and withhold judgment if only we sincerely turn to him with our whole hearts and do the things he wants us to do. And if you read the short book of Joel you will notice that God gives us this admonishment even in the midst of raging destruction not willing, even at that late stage, to carry through his anger to its limit.

What more can I say? Trust in God and The Lord Jesus Christ and live, even if your body dies you will still live (forever!) Trust in man…well, I don’t think I need to spell it for anyone as to what happens if you trust in man. John 2:25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.

Giving Thanks

This entry is not a commentary but I am making some time to give thanks unto God. Most days pass away in a blur from morning to night and as I get older I realize that most of my time is spent on unimportant things that have no lasting value. Therefore, today I want to extol and give thanks unto God my King and my Lord Jesus Christ for His mercy and goodness toward us all. The following psalm was penned by King David some 3 millennia ago and I cannot find better words to express what I feel in my heart. Please take a few moments everyday to bow your head and worship God, worship is not something that must necessarily be set to music and done in church; worship is merely the act of bowing to a higher power and there is none higher than the Lord God Almighty, creator of all things whose mercy endures forever. Amen!

Psalm 145 (King James Version)

¹I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

²Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

³Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

⁴One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

⁵I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

⁶And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

⁷They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

⁸The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

⁹The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

¹⁰All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.

¹¹They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

¹²To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

¹³Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

¹⁴The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

¹⁵The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.

¹⁶Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

¹⁷The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

¹⁸The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

¹⁹He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

²⁰The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.

²¹My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

Happy Days Are Here Again: The Recent Stock Market Rally

There is a light at the end of the economic crisis tunnel, or so we are being told by our politicians and the media. The stock market is on an upswing, houses are selling, and governments are spending, spending, spending… We are told that recovery will begin in the 3^rd quarter of this year (where have we heard that before?) And that soon we will be back to our free spending ways of the mid 2000’s. SUVS will once again clog the freeways, starter homes will all have 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, unemployment will be so yesterday that we will need another 30 millions illegalls just to keep flipping Big Macs, and to keep our lawns manicured, and the granite in our bathrooms shined. Donald Trump is on Larry King preaching the gospel of owning real estate; what a good time it is to buy right now, and he means now, as in today not tomorrow or you may miss the opportunity of a lifetime; of several lifetimes according to the pundits. The stars are aligned and soon you will be richer than the queen if you only buy real estate and hold it for a while, so say the gurus on TV and on the internet and in print. O Joy! Let the good times roll. However, anyone keeping score might beg to differ slightly…Let’s do a tally and see if this prognosis by Donald Duck Trump etal is feasible and / or believable.

· Official unemployment is 8.5%, real unemployment which is calculated by counting all unemployed folks is at least 15% and closer to 20% according to www.shadowstats.com.

· General Motors and Chrysler are both on their last legs; even with restructuring to become more efficient it will be years, maybe decades, before they regain the size that they once were, and employ anywhere near as many folks as they have in the past. What about all the parts suppliers and repair shops and service stations that depend on a certain number of automobiles being manufactured, bought and serviced in America? What about all the pubs and bars and Mickie D’s and shopping malls and corner stores and home builders and handymen and cleaning ladies and landscapers and hairdressers that depend on steady employment by folks in their communities, such employment coming from the auto industry? No, the Japs will not pick up the slack! http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/04/business/04auto.html - auto sales across the board are down by as much as 50% in the case of GM, 40% for Toyota, 38% in the case of Honda and so the story goes for all manufacturers, American or Japanese. Though these figures are for one month, there is a decline in sales month over month over month. It maybe decades before Americans starts buying as many cars as they did in 2005-2006, if they ever return to those heady days of unbridled consumption. And can Ford be far behind on pulling the plug on itself?

· http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSLG52607220090416 / This story from April 16^th informs those whose interests stretch beyond American Idol of the biggest real estate failure in US history. O Happy Days are here again – NOT! NEW YORK (Reuters) - General Growth Properties Inc, the second-largest U.S. mall owner, declared bankruptcy on Thursday in the biggest real estate failure in U.S. history. Ending months of speculation, General Growth, along with 158 of its 200-plus U.S. malls, filed Chapter 11 while it tries to refinance its debts. 158 malls filing for bankruptcy, how many personnel does each mall employ: sales ladies, maintenance staff, security staff, cleaners, part timers, full timers, students, management and more? Who in their right mind can believe that all these freshly unemployed folks will waltz over to the next mall and land a job right away? Like the auto workers and workers in related industries, many of these newly unemployed will never work again in their lifetime and therefore become a permanent drain on the revenues of the States and municipalities even while their tax revenues are declining rapidly. But don’t worry, be happy! Helicopter Ben is on the job; the Fed chair’s job is no longer controlling money supply, it is now defined as ‘Quantitative Easing’ aka expanding the money supply infinitely. How this will not cause inflation or even hyper inflation, no one has satisfactorily explained to me. It’s true that the unemployed auto worker sitting in his under 10K house (yes the median price of houses in Detroit is 7K), will get his unemployment check but will that check be enough to keep his family in Mac & Cheese when purchasing power of the dollar will be diminishing daily? Inquiring minds want to know the answer to such deep questions but sadly the answers are nowhere to be found on ‘the most trusted name in news’.

· Bank Failures continue apace: here’s a list from the venerable FDIC’s own website - http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/banklist.html. The stat of interest in this list is that there have been as many banks failures in less than 4 months in 2009 as failed in all of 2008. 2007 saw only 3 banks fail and none failed in 2006. In sprng 2007 we were told that the ‘Sub-Prime’ problem had been contained. In spring 2008 we were told that by throwing 30 billion at the Bear Stearns debacle the Fed had rescued the banking system. A year later when multiple trillions (but who's counting) have been thrown at the problem, we are told that recovery is just on the horizon, it will begin in the third quarter of 2009. I wonder what the reality will be in spring 2010? Happy Happy, Joy Joy – I think not!

· I can go on and on with more facts and figures not the kind pulled of thin air by MSM to support the case that the recovery is far from beginning because the crash is still on going. The Economy is crashing in slow motion like an airliner, right now the aircraft is still in the air although everyone on board knows that it is going to crash. Briefcases are falling from the overhead bins, the oxygen masks have been released, the plane is tumbling end over end, the engines have no power but it is still at 15000 feet in the air and has not struck ground yet. It is like a coming tsunami where the tide has receded and everyone is fooled into believing that new ground has been revealed for cultivation and development. The longer the tide stays out the more people are fooled into believing that a permanent recovery has been achieved; little do they realize that the longer the tide stays out the greater the force and higher the wave that will return to swamp everyone still close to shore and even far inland. Ask yourself this question, where will all the millions of recently unemployed folks get permanent well paying jobs that can support previous levels of consumption and tax revenues for the governments? http://autos.canada.com/community/gallery/car-glut.html / this is the new reality, unsold cars, and TVs and computers and jeans and…all manners of unsold merchandise piling up across North America that will take years to unload even at 2006 levels of consumption. Airliners are being parked in the desert because there are not enough passengers flying - The number of planes in storage has jumped 29 percent in the past year to 2,302, according to aerospace data firm Ascend Worldwide. That includes 930 parked by U.S. operators alone. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30056112/

· So what’s really behind this recent stock market rally that has everyone singing Happy Days are here again? There are no fundamental reasons for the stock market to be rallying when the real markets where actual goods are bought and sold such as shopping malls and auto dealerships are shutting down by the thousands. http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-sun-car-dealers-0329-mar29,0,3084915.story . Since none of us average Joes will ever be privy to the inner workings of the financial elite I can only surmise that this rally is being fuelled by inner circle banks working in collusion with the Fed buying up securities that no one in their right mind would touch. This is what is driving the stock market higher not your average Joe public or even smaller fund managers buying stocks. It is a rigged game, it has always been a rigged game and it will always burn the many and reward the few much as a casino does. A casino is a much fairer place to invest your money in, and the odds are much better than in the stock market.

· Be warned that the crash is yet to come, the tide is still out and the longer it stays out the higher the wave will be that will crash upon the shore whenever it comes ashore. What we have witnessed so far is a mere prelude to the main feature; we have been thinking that we are watching the movie when it is only the trailer. The powers that be can delay the inevitable to suit their plans but they cannot stop it; and personally, I do not believe they have any intention of stopping it. If they had the best interests of the average person, the American or Canadian public at heart these problems would not have happened in the first place. The proposed solutions are much bigger problems in the making for the little guys, and if we little guys can surmise as much, then I am convinced that the powers that be have already surmised as much.

· Ultimately what is confronting the world is judgment from on high; the ‘elites’ are only the puppets whose strings are being pulled by the Almighty. He it is that will determine when the final crash will occur not Goldman Sachs or the Fed or the Treasury or any other organization or person. Our God is gracious and merciful not sending judgment in one fell swoop upon the world but in waves that will keep getting higher and higher. When the judgment of Jerusalem came in the days of the prophet Jeremiah the judgment lasted decades; the inhabitants of the land were given ample opportunities to repent and change, and even at that late stage judgment would been withheld. The judgment which led to the destruction of Jerusalem lasted a period of time that spanned the reign of several kings. Do not be surprised if this judgment that is just beginning lasts a few administrations and Presidents or rulers. This so-called rally is merely another chance being given to the inhabitants of the world to repent and change but is anyone listening? The next shoe to drop will be more severe and may result in famine and pandemic in our nations but amidst it all our God alone has power over all plagues and all economic woes; look to Him not to the government. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved not to king Obama.

Economic Tsunami - who really caused it - Part 2

So let us proceed and see if ‘THEY’ that are so ominously presented by so many alternative media journalists, authors, and talk show hosts are the real powers upon Earth or are they mere puppets that are powerless against the real power both on Earth, and in Heaven, namely Jesus Christ. The book of Revelation is the last and the most dramatic book of the Bible. It is also a very prophetic book that reveals to all that read, and believe, ‘things that must shortly come to pass.’ So let me ask a few questions the answers to which will prove once and for all who controls what, and whose power we ought to fear and respect.

1. Q. Who is the author of the book of Revelation? A. Most people would say that it is the apostle John but John was merely a scribe; someone who wrote down that which was authored by another person, that person being God. Revelation 1:1, ‘The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John.’

2. Q. The judgments recorded in the book of Revelation begin with the opening of the book sealed with seven seals. Who wrote the book sealed with the seven seals? A. God not the Masons or Albert Pike or The Pentagon or any other ‘They’.

3. Q. The four horsemen of the Apocalypse about whom much has been written are: 1. Warfare, both civil and between nations. 2. Famine. 3. Plagues, Pandemics and Pestilences. 4. Economic devastation. Who opens the seals that these four horsemen can ride the Earth? A. Jesus Christ: not the CFR or The Bilderbergers or the Pope or any other man or even devil. Rev. 6:1 ‘And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals…’ If the world does collapse economically, if WWIII does break out, if a worldwide pandemic kills millions, if a worldwide famine destroys millions more, we can rest assured that it is not ‘They’ that will have caused these things. No, these things will come upon the Earth as a judgment for man’s wickedness, when even innocent children have become tradable merchandise then it is only a matter of time before judgment comes in full force. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5Yt-OzyD3g&feature=player_embedded – watch this video to see how the wickedness of man grows apace in these last days. ‘They’ are only puppets that God will use to bring judgment upon the inhabitants of this Earth, and then ‘They’ themselves will be judged for the evil that they have brought upon mankind.

4. Q. Who has the keys of hell, and of death? A. Despite the near omnipotent powers attributed to ‘They’, as for example in the X-Files TV series and to Satan in print and film, the fact of the matter is that it is Jesus Christ who holds the keys to death and hell. It is he that determines who ends up where not any man or Satan. Who then ought we to fear, man or the devil or God? Rev. 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

5. Q. A lot has been written about the coming Earth changes such as planet X wreaking havoc upon Earth. If these things are truly coming upon Earth, who has the power to make even the heavens do his bidding, to make meteors and asteroids and other heavenly bodies come crashing down to Earth? A. God and Jesus Christ alone, neither man nor devil is capable of controlling the cosmos, or if capable has the freedom to do this without God’s authorization. How do we know that God has authorized this cosmic devastation to rain down upon Earth? A. Rev. 6:12, And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13. And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind…. when he had opened the sixth seal… the one that opens the sixth seal to begin this cycle of cosmic destruction upon Earth is Jesus Christ not Satan or the Queen or the President or The Rockefellers of The Rothschilds or any other ‘They’.

6. Q. Why do these things happen anyway? Is it because ‘They’ want a New World Order? Because ‘They’ want to enslave all mankind or are ‘They’ mere puppets themselves doing the bidding of the real Master, the real unseen Power that ‘They’ neither believe in nor acknowledge? A. No, these things happen because the days ahead are the days of God’s wrath. Rev. 6:17, ‘For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?’ Presenting the ‘They’ as being omnipotent whose plans alone are being fulfilled in setting up The New World Order etc. is Satan’s way of taking credit for that which will happen, and is happening only as a result of God’s judgments upon man.

I can go on and on to prove that neither man nor the devil have ever been in control of this planet. Yes it is true that Satan is the god of this world but what means is that he is the author of the ‘system’ that the whole world follows which is the ancient Babylonian system of commerce. In this system anything and everything is for sale including the very souls and bodies of men, women and children. As this video shows in a world in which even innocent children have become merchandise it is inevitable that God’s righteous wrath will be kindled and judgment will come upon mankind and this Earth, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5Yt-OzyD3g&feature=player_embedded. But just because Satan is the god of this world and the author of its evil system of commerce is neither reason nor excuse for us to follow his evil dictates. Jesus has made us free from the power of this sinful world so that we can live in this world without being beholden to its universal commercial barcode system. We neither need to make ourselves merchandise nor ought we to trap others in the ‘system’. We do this by understanding that the purpose of our existence is to know and understand God not to make a living even if we have to hold a job or own a business. Our profit is increased as our knowledge of God is increased not our bank balances. We do not lay up treasures upon Earth but we lay up eternal treasures in Heaven where eternal life awaits us as promised by Jesus Christ. Rev. 1:7, ‘To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

In conclusion consider the following facts elucidated from the book of Revelation and give glory and honor to God not the NWO and their evil minions who are nothing more than menstrual rags that will be burned in the fire that will never be quenched. Fear not ‘THEY’ but rather fear him who alone is the omnipotent Lord God, Rev. 1:8, ‘I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.’

· The judgments of the book of Revelation including the seven seals, the seven trumpets, the seven thunders, and the seven vials all come upon the Earth as a result of God’s command not man’s, or even the devil’s.

· Much has been written about technologies such as HAARP that will be used to bring destruction upon the Earth. However, it is not until God allows it that such destruction will come upon Earth. Rev. 7:2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea.

· The antichrist beast and the false prophet about whom reams have been written for centuries are not independent powers. They are appointed by God to fulfill his purposes for a season and then they go into perdition, end of story. Rev. 13:7, ‘And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.’ Who gives the beast this power, God does, not only does God give him this power but he also appoints the exact time for which the beast would retain this power.

· If only people understood that Satan himself is not an independent power but a mere puppet created by God to fulfill his purposes they would spend a whole lot more singing God’s praises rather than extolling the evil of Satan. Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Proverbs 16:4 The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Nothing exists that does not serve the purposes of God.

· Rev. 17:17, ‘For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. Here are all the kings, and presidents and popes and rich and powerful men of the Earth gathered together to make war with The Lamb yet whose will do they fulfill, God’s or their own?

· If the antichrist beast is that powerful how come he was not able to overcome The Lamb? Rev. 19:20, ‘And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.’ God does not even allow these goons to be killed but hurls them alive into the lake of fire.

· Finally Satan himself has no power whatsoever against God. When it suits God he is taken, imprisoned in the bottomless pit for 1000 years, released to play out the final act of evil upon Earth and then sent into perdition. Rev. 20:1 ‘And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3. And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season’. So you see the devil who presents himself as the god of this world, as omnipotent, as all powerful has no power in reality, at least not before God. Do you not think that God can imprison him forever today if he so desired. That Satan is still loose it a testament to God’s omnipotence not the Devil’s. When God is finished with him he will destroy him forever along with his unholy angels and humans. Rev. 20:10, And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.’

Let me conclude by saying that though the days ahead will be perilous and may cost us our bodily lives, we must needs remember at all times that neither man nor Satan are in control of their own lives let alone ours. Even if we die because of our faith we believe in him who arose from the dead to die nevermore and who holds the keys to death and hell. Luke 12:5
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

Economic Tsunami - Who really caused it???

The following series of Q&A ought to settle once and for all who really runs the show and whom we ought really to fear not ‘THEY’ (see my previous entry as to who 'They' are). The current economic collapse has been orchestrated at the highest levels of human power as embodied in the banking establishments that control the finances of the world. If anyone is stupid enough to believe that all that is transpiring is accidental need not read any further; it is better for him to keep wallowing in his ignorance and hope that the coming economic tsunami will not overwhelm and drown him as the natural tsunami overwhelmed and drowned hundreds of thousands in 2004. However human beings alone neither have the intelligence nor the unity to orchestrate and execute so perfectly on a worldwide scale the collapse that is now occurring. No, there are unseen intelligences and powers that control and manage the affairs of this world; human leaders are mere puppets doing the bidding of their ungodly spirit hosts. The Bible calls these creatures ‘devils’ but it is important to understand that these devils are not funny red creatures with pointy tails and pitchforks as portrayed by the Catholic church but rather highly intelligent and technologically advanced beings that have plagued mankind since the fall thousands of years ago. The creatures are like the "Goa'uld" of the Stargate TV series, extremely intelligent and powerful non-humans that use human hosts to do their bidding.

Isa 24:21, ‘And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. This scripture makes a distinction between the host of the high ones and the kings of the Earth. Kings of the Earth are the Popes, Queens, Kings, Presidents, Prime Ministers and other leaders that apparently rule this planet. This scripture and others in the Bible reveal to us the fact that human beings are mere puppets doing the bidding of higher powers that do not even reside upon the surface of the Earth. In reality the real high command of human affairs is not even upon the Earth, it is somewhere up there, maybe on the moon. The moon being the headquarters of the devil is mere speculation but who knows? Jesus did not dispute the devil when he told Jesus that all Earthly Kingdoms were under his control and he gave them to whomsoever he willed. All that the devil wanted in exchange was for Jesus to worship him which tempted Jesus not one bit already being the King of the entire Universe let alone the Earth. However this incident establishes the fact that all kings of the Earth have to worship the devil in order to obtain their kingdoms. Any person seeking power does so not for altruistic reasons but for personal profit and the higher up they get on the rungs of the ladder of worldly success they more beholden they get to the devil. The gophers on the lower rungs or on the base of the pyramid are devil worshipers by default; they believe in the ‘system’; the very system that has been designed by the devil to enslave the mindless masses and keep them ever in bondage to the rat race. The closer a person gets to the apex of the pyramid of success as defined by the world not God, the more knowingly and consciously they become worshipers of the devil. As a matter of fact the supreme human leaders of politics, religion and finance in this world are in the every sense high priests of the devil. They engage in ceremonies and rites to invoke devils, and they receive their commands directly from these unseen evil spirits that reside within them and without.

In the movie ‘Angel Heart’ with Mickey Rourke, there is a scene in which MR’s father-in-law who is a very rich man tells the Mickey character that the ‘Prince of Darkness protects the powerful.’ This is a very true statement; the rich and powerful know where their wealth and power comes from and who they must needs do homage to. If the leaders of our world were godly men and women their deeds would also be godly. But since the advent of civilization what have the leaders of men, the Nimrods, the Alexanders, the Caesars given mankind except for misery and death. What did Jesus tell us about the devil in John 10:10, ‘The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy… Steal, Kill, and Destroy: do these words not describe human history of the past 5000 plus years? Has anything changed in modern times? The answer is both NO and YES! No nothing has changed; everywhere we look we find a dog eat dog world, every man for himself is the mantra of the day as it has been for thousands of years. Profit above all seems to be the ideal that men actively pursue at the expense of all else and is it any wonder then that wars never cease, that somehow we can never achieve peace, that inequalities get broader where one people or nation live gluttonous lives while another people and nation starve to death. The rich steal from the poor, the powerful kill the weak, and the keepers of the flock are themselves ravenous wolves that destroy the innocent flock that they have sworn to protect. Anyone that has studied history or simply by watching the evening news it is impossible to conclude that we live in a sane, healthy, righteous world. But if Satan is indeed god of this world then why should we expect otherwise? If our politicians, business leaders and religious heads are indeed following Satan rather than God is it any surprise that our politicians constantly lie to us, that bankers devise usurious schemes with the blessing of government to steal from their own citizens, that religious heads are pedophiles that have made the house of God a den of thieves? No it is indeed foolish for us to expect any different. It is a part of the carefully crafted deception that human leaders are altruistic men and women working on behalf of, or for the betterment of the masses. A priest saying mass for you will charge you money but that’s all he’s interested in: the money not your soul; you better look to God yourself if you want to save your soul not the priest or the Pope.

However the answer to the question whether things have changed in modern times is also YES because things are not just the same as they have always been they are about to get a whole lot worse. If we truly are living in the days of the Apocalypse then watch out ‘For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.’ (Matthew 24:21-22) Jesus forewarned us that in the last days before his return things would get so bad that were it not for his direct intervention by destroying all the armies that will be gathered for all out war that all life on Earth would be wiped out. This brings me to the subject of this entry as to who really controls and directs the affairs of man, and of the Cosmos? Who really has caused this rapidly deteriorating economic collapse? What you have read so far may lead you to conclude that it is Satan but that is only partially true because Satan himself is not an independent power, he himself is absolutely controlled and managed by a power greater and higher than himself. Revelation 19:6, ‘And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.’ The Bible calls God OMNIPOTENT or ALL POWERFUL or ALMIGHTY (all mighty.) Such superlative adjectives prove that God alone has all power and therefore no one else has any power even though it may seem to be the case, as for instance in the case of human authorities: The President is portrayed as being the most powerful man on Earth whereas he is probably the least powerful, and the most controlled man on Earth.

To be continued….
