This is outrageous. It is not like this wasn’t purposefully done on the fly. These speeches are developed over weeks of drafts and revisions.
I think we can see exactly how far we have come with the De-Christianization of America. I really shouldn’t be surprised, this same man stated in another speech that the US is not really a Christian nation.
There are powers behind this movement that only God knows. We are witnessing the deconstruction of our great nation. We will know a man by his fruit. What type of fruit is this?
Matthew 7:16 – “By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?”
Obama said,
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, endowed with certain inalienable rights: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
Actual Text:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
President gives no credit to author of life, liberty, pursuit of happiness
President Obama removed the reference to the “Creator” from the Declaration of Independence when he quoted a portion at a meeting of the Congressional Hispanic Congress.
This is unnerving. If this is true, then a major line has been crossed and we are well on our way down a slippery slope. The deception has been suffocating with this administration, this is however law breaking to shut down and intimidate any opposition. What are we turning into Venezuela?
Lately, the White House and its allies have been drawing attention to the political activities of libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch. In an August 9 speech, President Obama singled out Americans for Prosperity, a free-market political group founded by David Koch in 2004. In the wake of the Citizens United Supreme Court decision, Obama said:
Right now all around this country there are groups with harmless-sounding names like Americans for Prosperity, who are running millions of dollars of ads against Democratic candidates all across the country. And they don’t have to say who exactly the Americans for Prosperity are. You don’t know if it’s a foreign-controlled corporation. You don’t know if it’s a big oil company, or a big bank. You don’t know if it’s a insurance company that wants to see some of the provisions in health reform repealed because it’s good for their bottom line, even if it’s not good for the American people.
For those that have not read Atlas Shrugged, it was set in a very similar situation.
All of the producers and successful people were vilified and shut down through government intervention, regulation, or other backroom deals, always for the “good of the people”. So they just started disappearing? Decided to leave.
This is a great article below of what we are doing to our country. Anytime you have 50% of the country not paying any taxes and 2% paying more than the other 98% something is seriously wrong.
Will we see an exodus, it is still yet to be seen, but the fact that more and more people are becoming vocal about it, is surely a sign.
America is not mentioned in the end times, our economic might will have fallen. Could we be exporting it?
From a different angle, we can imagine what would happen to our society if all of the economic producers left. What do you think will happen, when all of the “moral” producers (restrainers) leave (are taken)? What would the world be like?
So for some reason this headline on fox caught my eye, something just drew me to read it. And I am glad I did, the story is very different from the headline. And I was taken back at how it is being treated.
This exact same story could have been told a lot different and not strayed from the stated facts. Now, I am not supporting or condemning the actions of this group, just using it as an example of how things are starting to change/transition.
Those that believe in the inerrant word of the Bible, fundamentalists, those that believe in the end times, are going to be shifted to ‘cult’ or ‘cult-like’ in the not so distant future, in fact you could argue they already are by the existence of this story.
The two areas that struck me the most were first when the article’s author stated that:
“…they were awaiting the Rapture, which some Christians believe is an event during which they will be gathered together in the air and reunited with Christ.”
Some, not most, or almost all, or fundamentalists. Only some Christians believe. This article really drives home a glimpse of what it may be like after the “event” that evidently only “some” Christians believe will occur.
Second, was how they described the group.
Chicas apparently had formed her own religious group, Parker said. About 12 to 15 people would gather at her home in Palmdale, a high-desert city of 139,000, and one night about a week ago, they didn’t leave until 2 a.m., said neighbor Cheri Kofahl.
“We’ve got a group here that’s practicing some orthodox and some unorthodox Christianity,” Parker said. “Obviously this falls under the unorthodox.”
Others who knew Chicas said she was devout but hardly fanatic in her religious beliefs.
So let me get this right. We have about 12 to 15 people gathering in a woman’s home to study the bible at night and staying late occasionally. And that is considered practicing unorthodox Christianity?
Normally that would be called a bible study in the US, or in other countries that would be called the house church. How many disciples did Jesus have? Twelve, and where did they meet most of the time? Oh, in people’s houses at night over a meal.
How far have we strayed as a world? Can you feel the shift?
PALMDALE, California — The leader of a breakaway religious sect was hospitalized Sunday for a mental evaluation after she and members of her group went missing and left behind evidence that they were awaiting the Rapture or some catastrophic event.
Today’s devotional is from Max Lucado’s Grace for the Moment
Governed by Love
In Christ we are set free
by the blood of his death, and so we have forgiveness of sins.
Ephesians 1:7
Jesus spoke of freedom, but he spoke of a different kind of freedom: the type of freedom that comes not through power but through submission. Not through control but through surrender. Not through possessions but through open hands.
God wants to emancipate his people; he wants to set them free. He wants his people to be not slaves but sons. He wants them governed not by law but by love.
We have been liberated from our own guilt and our own legalism. We have the freedom to pray and the freedom to love the God of our heart. And we have been forgiven by the only one who could condemn us. We are truly free!
In the face of this world we live in, trying to manipulate, nudge us one direction or another, and control us. It is good to seek God’s word on the matter.
His stance is in stark contrast to the world we live. His stance is the opposite, as we find so many times. This is why as we continue to seek Him, and do his will, we become “not of this world” as Paul stated many times. We start to feel uncomfortable and not at home.
If you begin feeling this way or are today, take heart, this is a good thing. Christ has promised to come for us and keep us from the worst. All we must do is occupy till he returns.
Occupy, there it is again, if we were of this world, then would we be occupying it? Or is that more a term used for a foreigner in a land?
Israel is preparing as well. They are well aware of the alliance forming against them and the multi-front war that is looming. The groups and countries he mentioned in the article align with the Psalm 83 map… Prophecy is taking shape just as God said it would. He has been 100% right to date, why should we thing that would change.
Psalm 83:3-8 “With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those you cherish. 4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more.” 5 With one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against you- 6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites, 7 Gebal, Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre. 8 Even Assyria has joined them to lend strength to the descendants of Lot. Selah”
OC Ground Forces Command Maj.-Gen. Sami Turjeman is preparing IDF for war on multiple fronts, possibility of conflict with Hizbullah, Syria.
A group of gazelles runs alongside the jeep as it hops over another mound of dirt in the northern Golan Heights. Suddenly, the Toyota Land Cruiser comes to a halt as a massive Merkava Mk 2 battle tank takes the place of the gazelles, raises its cannon and lets loose a thunder of shells at a target somewhere off in the distance.
“You have the order to fire,” the brigade commander says into the radio. A minute later, an old Syrian Soviet-made tank – left over from the Yom Kippur War – is attacked from multiple tanks and directions.
Our brothers and sisters in Indonesia are feeling the brunt of the Islamic backlash against Christians. The persecution is escalating. This is a good article on what they are experiencing…
Christians hold prayers in closed church near Jakarta, citing equal rights to worship as their Muslim brethren.
The congregation was allowed to hold Sunday service after church leaders agreed to a dialogue later this week [AFP]
Dozens of Christians have defied police and threats of attack from Muslim groups to hold prayers inside their boarded-up church near the Indonesian capital.
More tension and preparation for war. This time Hizbullah is testing rockets in Iran. I would say the alliances are fairly established now, the alliances of the Psalm 83 war.
Psalm 83:3-8 “With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those you cherish. 4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more.” 5 With one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against you- 6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites, 7 Gebal, Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre. 8 Even Assyria has joined them to lend strength to the descendants of Lot. Selah”
Iranian “Fatah 110” has a range of 200 km, capable of reaching Ashdod, Jerusalem; Lebanese terror group reportedly has list of priority targets.
Special Hizbullah units in Iran have successfully launched and tested a new Iranian missile “Fatah 110,” according to a report over the weekend by Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Rai, Channel 2 news reported.
Buried halfway through the story is an interesting bit of information.
Separately on Sunday, Iran’s state owned TV denied a report from the semi-official Fars news agency that Iranian forces had detained seven US troops trying to enter the country.
Fars had earlier said that: “Recently seven American troops were detained by Iranian guards in a south-eastern province of the country… Two Iranians accompanying the troops were also arrested”
There is an awful lot of positioning going on, you get the sense that something big might be on the horizon. Why would you, as the media, bury a story like that? Wouldn’t that be more of a headline? Is this planted to stir the pot? Interesting…
Russian defense minister announced on Friday that Moscow would go ahead with its sale of P-800 Yakhont anti-ship cruise missiles to Syria.
The Israeli defense establishment is greatly concerned about Russia’s plans to go ahead with a sale of advanced arms to Syria, a defense source said on Saturday.
“Israel views [arms sale] with great concern,” the senior defense official said. “The weapons will eventually be turned against Israel.”
TEHRAN – All U.S. warships in the Persian Gulf are within the range of Iran’s land-to-sea missiles, Major General Yahya Safavi said on Friday.
Safavi, who is the former commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, stated that Iran’s situation is very different than the situations in Afghanistan and Iraq.
He went on to say that Iran has a 2000-kilometer coastline on the Persian Gulf and every U.S. warship in that body of water is within range of Iran’s missiles
There is a lot of tensions and rumors of war in the news this weekend. I will be posting a string of articles on what’s being said as both sides arm and position themselves.
PA official tells ‘Post’ he has ‘no explanation’ for US optimism; Mubarak: I told PM not to restart building, but he said he had no choice.
Despite considerable pressure from both the US and Egypt to continue the settlement construction moratorium for another three months, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s senior ministers, a forum known as the septet, decided this week not to extend the freeze.
lawsuit says science behind ‘global warming’ claims is junk, discreditedBy Jim ForsythThursday, September 16, 2010 The state of Texas today sued the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in a federal appeals court in Washington DC, claiming four new regulations imposed by the EPA are based on the ‘thoroughly discredited’ findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and are ‘factually flawed,’ 1200 WOAI news reports.
This article caught my eye, not from a prophecy stand point but just a small push back to the enormous expansion of government influence and control. It will be interesting to see the responses to this from unions and federal employees. It will be a good measuring stick for how entrenched the large global government group is within our country and media. Is the story even picked up?
Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) introduced a bill this week that would require two weeks of furlough in 2011 for federal civilian employees. The furloughs would save taxpayers $5.5 billion, according to a release about the bill.
“[Furloughs] provide slight problems but they provide large solutions to the budget trouble we face,” Coffman said.
Snow began falling in some areas of north central Montana and along the Rocky Mountain Front early on Friday, leaving some people checking their calendar to see if it is still, in fact, summer.
1″The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, speak to your countrymen and say to them: ‘When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman, 3 and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people, 4 then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not take warning and the sword comes and takes his life, his blood will be on his own head.” Ezekiel 33:1-4
7 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me.”
This is a great article on the state of our worlds fiat currency systems and their attitude toward gold.
Greenspan made an amazing statement this week. He stated on September 15th:
“Fiat money has no place to go but gold.”
What could he mean by that? He continued:
He further commented that “if all currencies are moving up or down together, the question is: relative to what? Gold is the canary in the coal mine. It signals problems with respect to currency markets. Central banks should pay attention to it.”
Unfortunately, they aren’t as outline further in the article.
These events are all starting to intersect. No Fiat currency has ever succeeded.
We will at one point, see our leaders declare that the current currencies are not working but there is a better plan to move to a single more stable global currency.
Until then we will continue to see the attacks on gold, to keep the fiat illusion firmly in place.
If you haven’t read Atlas Shrugged, I would highly recommend it. I began reading it recently and it was spooky how all the characters and philosophies could have just as easily been the last two years. They matched exactly…
On September 15 former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan made a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations. Some very interesting comments he made with respect to gold in response to a question were reported in an editorial in yesterday’s New York Sun, “Greenspan’s Warning on Gold”:
The attached PDF file show a study done on what the government has in store for our retirement accounts.
There are three areas the government can go to get access to additional revenue:
Gold confiscation, (Look up what FDR did in 1930s, also see other postings, earlier today, for 2010 version)
Property confiscation (What percent of home loans do you think the government now controls? almost 90%, yeah that’s right!), or
Retirement account confiscation. (Next up…)
The Government has a problem. It is growing so fast it can’t sustain itself. The average public federal employee is paid $120k, where the private employee is paid $60k on average. But he is paying for the federal employee. Also, there is a rise in unemployment to almost 17% if you consider those that have given up. But the Federal Government has lost zero jobs, they have actually been adding.
The paper sums it up well:
“But it (the government) has a very serious problem. It can’t sustain itself – let alone keep growing – on the back
of the existing tax base.”
On top of that there are two other areas of pain looming on the horizon:
– The US “AAA” credit rating is hanging by a thread. (If we lose this, the interest on our debt we are financing goes through the roof.)
– The foreign investors (mostly China & Japan) are balking at buying anymore debt. (Uncle Sam is seen as riskier than blue chip firms now – Washington Post.)
Solution?
The biggest source of hereto largely untapped revenue for US politicians is private retirement accounts.
60 million households
401k – $4 trillion
include 403b’s, HSA, IRAs & others – $15 trillion
It may not happen suddenly (like in Argentina), but prerequisites are already being readied for implementation.
Here are some quotes from the paper linked below:
The 40l(k)/IRA de-privatization plan is the brain-child of one of the left’s rising stars, the
bright and inventive leftwing academic Teresa Ghilarducci. While Ghilarducci insists 40l(k)s will still
be “legal” under her plan, the thrust of her idea was revealed on a 2008 radio interview in which she
said, “I’m just rearranging the tax breaks that are available now for 40l(k)s and spreading – spreading
the wealth…”
Just rearranging (nudging) the tax breaks available now to spread…wait for it…the…wealth…
In a 2009 research paper, Ghilarducci declared “Guaranteed Retirement Accounts [GRAs] are
like universal 401(k) plans except that the government, as befits a large and enduring institution, will
invest and manage the pooled savings.” That’s because, as the professorial Ghilarducci believes, “Humans often lack the foresight, discipline, and investing skills required to sustain a savings plan.”
(Of course, that analysis of “humans” would not apply to left-leaning PhDs, members of Congress, and
bossy bureaucrats – who somehow are endowed with the skills needed to manage everyone else’s
investments.)
Wow, guess we know where we rank. Good think they are there to serve the people…on wait, that doesn’t match…
Under the Ghilarducci Plan, 50% of your GRA automatically goes to the government upon
your passing, not your heirs. And that’s just for starters. Future tax deferments to 401(k)s and IRAs
would be scrapped in exchange for a supposedly guaranteed 3% annual real return.
Hmm, give up total control to get guaranteed 3% annual real return. And they get half when I die…sounds fair.
Backers of government-controlled accounts stress that 401(k)s will still be “legal” under her
plan – yet if 401(k)/IRA tax advantages are removed, employers will no longer have a financial
incentive to offer them at all. (All part of an active “herding” process to force private retirement funds
into government-approved “investments.”)
Again with the nudging, or is that a shove, maybe even a take down…
Sorry for the sarcasm, but this is really incredible. The gall to make some of these statements and bold recommendations. You really need to download the document and read it in its entirety. It is very eye-opening.
Again, this is all part of the control needed for the three end time prophecies:
One World Currency
One World Government
Mark of the Beast (total control of buying and selling)
Financially, we are being herded into very narrow options. Our government is needing to control us to a point of no options, all to keep up the illusion and deception that they can fix our economy or that it is built on sand.
Basic finance tells you that in down times, you head to bonds and t-bills. If you don’t trust bonds and t-bills, then you head to Gold, Silver, or physical assets to preserve your wealth and wait out the down times till you can buy back in.
What the government is doing is forcing us down a funnel. The GM and Chrysler fiasco last year paired with the struggling states and cities has tainted the bond market. With the unknown health of the US government and the Feds willingness to print currency to cover debt, T-Bills are unattractive. That left Gold, Silver and other physical assets. Physical assets, real estate, has taken a large hit, which left Gold and Silver.
“Just as the government is trying to prevent people from investing in anything other than T-Bills by raising taxes on taxable interest and dividends to confiscatory levels, it’s also trying to prevent you from parking your wealth in assets, like gold, that compete with the paper dollars issued by the Federal Reserve and the Treasury.”
This last resort investment is the newest target of the government to attempt to drive investors back into T-Bills all under the deceptive guise of protecting the consumer from unscrupulous gold vendors. It could be political too.
… a September 23 hearing of the Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade, and Consumer Protection… will focus on “legislation that would regulate gold-selling companies, an industry who’s [sic] relentless advertising is now staple of cable television.”
…”Under Rep. Weiner’s bill, companies like Goldline would be required to disclose the reasonable resale value of items being sold.” That’s great. Are Mr. Weiner and Chairman Bernanke also going to agree to print on every dollar the reasonable expectation that its value will be eroded by inflation?
And why do they feel such excess is needed: The fear of hyperinflation. But….
The whole situation is amazing. If Mr. Weiner really wants to calm fears about hyperinflation, the last way to do it is to have a government hearing cracking down on the people warning of it.
So where is this all headed.
It is just another sign or thread of our government putting the controls in place so that they control all the exits (places you can put your money). It is the intersection of One World Currency, One World Government, and the Mark of the Beast. Because you can’t convience (force) someone to take a mark that will control all investments and purchases, if they are invested in Gold and Silver. Bottom Line.
Revelation 13:17 (NIV) – “so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.”
Revelation 13:7 (NIV) – “He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation.”
Just as the government is trying to prevent people from investing in anything other than T-Bills by raising taxes on taxable interest and dividends to confiscatory levels, it’s also trying to prevent you from parking your wealth in assets, like gold, that compete with the paper dollars issued by the Federal Reserve and the Continue Reading »
A few days ago I posted an article on China’s warning to the approach outlined below.
They warned on to get into a trade dispute or question their yuan policies.
These two articles show the rock and a hard place we find ourselves in by being so over leveraged (in debt) with China. If they continue on this course it will be “interesting” (no good results) to see what China’s response will be.
We could be witnessing the initial trigger that kills the dollar and plunges us into hyper-inflation.
Which opens the door to one world currency and one world government…
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner sharpened his criticism of China’s exchange rate policies, saying the yuan was strengthening too slowly and that he will look for new ways to get Beijing to move faster.
In testimony released on Wednesday and prepared for U.S. lawmakers considering a tough new trade law, Geithner called on China to allow “significant, sustained appreciation over time” and for the yuan to “fully reflect market forces.”
Peace process update, rough waters, but remaining surprisingly focused for all of the tension and violence surrounding effort.
God predicted that Jerusalem would be the center of the worlds focus in the last days.
The prophet Zechariah foresaw this event centuries ago:
“I will make Jerusalem and Judah like an intoxicating drink to all the nearby nations that send their armies to besiege Jerusalem. On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone, a burden for the world. None of the nations who try to lift it will escape unscathed.” Zechariah 12:2-3 (NLT)
Since 1967 when the Israelis retook Jerusalem in the Six Day War, the division of Jerusalem and ownership of the Temple Mount in particular, have been a source of countless U.N. resolutions, diplomatic crises, and calls for war.
Is it not even more so today? It has not always been this way…
The United States said Israeli and Palestinian leaders on Wednesday moved toward resolving their row over settlements but the Palestinians kept up the threat to walk out of the new peace talks.
There are a couple of articles in the news this week that show a shift in focus from Iran to Syria.
Is this a shift from the staging of Ezekiel to Psalm 83?
I’m not sure but we know that the Psalm 83 war must occur before Ezekiel’s. Syria was also a major concern during the Iraq war, if you remember, there was even intelligence that might be where the missing WMD’s ended up.
It is critical to understand who is involved with each conflict and makes up the alliances for each.
At IAEA meeting, Iranian official says reported Israeli strike on Syrian nuclear facility 3 years ago is the “real issue,” claims Damascus has fallen victim to a “vicious circle of endless questions and allegations.”
VIENNA — A US envoy on Thursday suggested time was running out for Syria to cooperate with a UN atomic agency probe of alleged secret nuclear activities before the agency invokes its seldom-used authority to call for a special inspection — a possible prelude to UN Security Council involvement.
Rising to Syria’s defense, a senior Iranian diplomat accused the organization — the International Atomic Energy Agency — of harassing Syria by leveling false allegations in collusion with Israel and its allies.
As for the crazy weather we have been seeing, it continues, with this storm in New York City. Some said they saw a funnel cloud. Video of storm at the end of the post.
This is pretty amazing. We must realize the technology that is out there and the willingness to deceive.
This Egyptian newspaper doctored the picture to show what they felt their people wanted to see. Or should I say, what their government wanted their people to see.
Deception so strong, you can’t not even trust what your eyes see.
Christ said be watchful, and pray for discernment, so that you are not deceived.
The key words to use about Egpyt’s Al-Ahram newspaper — “state run.” Never was that more clear than with this photo:
Just your basic world leaders trundling along. But then a blogger noticed something unusual with the original picture:
This isn’t exactly like finding Waldo. You see the difference, right? In the doctored photo at the top — Obama has been repositioned so that he is not leading the group! Egyptian President Hosni Mubarek is now the leader.
Another white house official you should keep an eye on. Plans and infrastructure are being put in place to ‘De-Develop’ the US. Do you think some of this could be in those multiple 2500 page bills that we passed this year?
Be watchful, we are headed toward a global government, God warned us in Revelation. To have a world government, everything must be equal. Is it easier for them to bring everyone up to our standard of living or lower ours to theirs?
In an on-the-fly interview with CNSNews.com, White House Office of Science and Technology Director John P. Holdren explained what he meant when he wrote in his 1973 book Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions that “A massive campaign must be launched to restore a high-quality environment in North America and to de-develop the United States.”
The good news: Consumption of high-fructose corn syrup is at a 20-year low.
The bad news: The folks who make this insidious sweetener aim to rebrand it to boost sales.
High-fructose corn syrup is cheaper than cane sugar and acts as a food preservative, too, so the food industry loves the stuff. But it’s been added to so many foods — yogurt, cereal, bread, drinks and even condiments — that researchers have fingered it as a culprit in the obesity epidemic.
Dr. Ir. Noor van Andel, former head of research at Akzo Nobel, recently presented a talk at the Dutch Meteorological Institute KNMI, concluding there is
* No observational evidence for influence of CO2 on past or present climate
The key here is the “why” toward the middle of the article the question is answered.
“The warplanes would be capable of reaching Iran undetected by radar.”
This gives us insight into what the Israeli’s are thinking. They are in this alone. The US could use this type of plane to attack, but Israel is moving to acquire the ability themselves.
Positioning continues as prophecy looms for Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38….
JERUSALEM – The Israeli government has officially approved plans to buy American-made F-35 stealth fighter jets.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said Thursday that the purchase would significantly strengthen Israel’s military, but gave no other details.
This article caught my eye from an exponential growth of knowledge and technology. Technology is exploding around us with what seem to be major leaps forward every week if not day.
In a vision, God revealed to Daniel that in “the time of the end,” travel and knowledge will increase:
“But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase.” Daniel 12:4 (NLT)
According to the book of Daniel, two things will increase in “the time of the end” – travel and knowledge.
A new photonic chip that works on light rather than electricity has been built by an international research team, paving the way for the production of ultra-fast quantum computers with capabilities far beyond today’s devices.
Future quantum computers will, for example, be able to pull important information out of the biggest databases almost instantaneously. As the amount of electronic data stored worldwide grows exponentially, the technology will make it easier for people to search with precision for what they want.
Further escalation continues in parallel with peace talks. It is now known that Hamas used phosphorous in two of the bombs which is considered a war crime, which is obviously not being applied to Hamas.
These events will eventually lead to the Psalm 83 war.
The Peace talks success runs counter to the prophecy of the Psalms 83 war.
The majority if not all the players are at the table and waiting….
Israel is still reeling from the firing of two phosphorous bombs at its territory from Gaza on Tuesday – a war crime under international law.
The IDF confirmed on Wednesday that the onslaught of ten mortar shells and two Kassam rockets fired at Israel the day before from Gaza included two phosphorous bombs. Police sources said three of the shells were phosphorous. Following the barrage, the Israel Air Force struck back, leading to the death of an Arab arms smugger in one of the many tunnels leading from Egypt to Gaza.
Escalation continues in parallel with peace talks. These events will eventually lead to the Psalm 83 war. The Peace talks success runs counter to the prophecy of the Psalms 83 war. All the players are at the table and waiting….
IDF says strongman ran towards soldiers in threatening manner, ignored requests to stop, resulting in him being shot.
IDF soldiers killed a Hamas military commander overnight Thursday during security operations east of the West Bank city of Tulkarm, the IDF spokesperson’s Unit said in a statement on Friday morning.
The statement said that the Hamas member, Iyad Abu Shalabiya, ran towards IDF soldiers in a threatening manner, and had ignored the IDF’s requests to cease his approach, resulting in him being shot.
Miltary sources said that Shalabiya spent several years in Israeli prisons and was wanted for questioning.
Twelve other suspects were arrested during the raid
The circumstances of the incident are under investigation.
The shooting comes two days after 10 rockets and mortar shells – including two containing phosphorus – were fired into Israel from the Gaza Strip as defense officials predicted that the violence would quiet down after Succot.
Rockets and shells pounded the Eshkol region throughout the day. One of the rockets – a 122-mm. Katyusha – hit just north of Ashkelon. No injuries or damage were reported.
This article lays out just how divisive things have gotten. For someone to be fired over such a small statement of the truth. The MSM can not afford to have anything leak out. That is the trouble with a lie, you have to keep it going and eventually you can’t control it. The deception we are seeing is overwhelming….
WJLA-TV has fired veteran anchorman Doug McKelway for a verbal confrontation this summer with the station’s news director that came after McKelway broadcast a sharply worded live report about congressional Democrats and President Obama.
This is an amazing summary of how we are being nudged, herded into global government. There are three videos that last about 40 minutes total but it is very eye-opening to the process that is being used.
So where is the line these days? It has been so rubbed out, it looks like the batters box at the end of nine innings.
The government is positioning itself as the solution to everything.
Is it right to use Elmo to sell the “right” to free broadband?
Watch the video, it is very good at laying out the plan.
Two take aways: It is redistribution of wealth, they are targeting low-income specifically.
But second, it was interesting toward the end of the video, the expert stated: it would be too hard to determine who has it and who doesn’t, we will just give it to all of them, and if they already have it then they can use the money for other things.
So much for the argument that the government is more efficient…
Wonder if that would hold true on health care?
Bottom line, this is deception on so many levels, the goal is control and dependency.
Prophecy Sign: When you read Revelation 8:6-13 you know that in the near future Planet Earth will be hit by objects from space. “8:6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. 7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. 8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; 9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. 10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third Continue Reading »
This is one of the areas that could trigger our rapid decline. If they decided to sell off our debt or even just stop buying it, we would be in a world of hurt and would have to start printing. I do not believe the Fed has any bullets left to counter.
It will be very interesting how this develops, can you imagine if we had to print money to cover the $1 trillion from the previous treasure sales article and also this $1.5 trillion? What would $2.5 trillion do to our inflation rate?
A State Council think-tank in China has warned Washington that the US will come off worst in a trade war if it imposes sanctions against Beijing over the two nations’ currency spat.

Ding Yifan, a policy guru at the Development Research Centre, said China could respond by selling holdings of US debt, estimated at over $1.5 trillion (£963bn). This would trigger a rise in US interest rates. His comments at a forum in Beijing follow a string of remarks by Chinese officials questioning US credit-worthiness and the reliability of the dollar.
China’s authorities seem split over how to respond to moves on Capitol Hill for legislation to punish Beijing for holding down the yuan. The central bank has ruled out use of its “nuclear weapon”, insisting that it would not exploit its $2.45 trillion of foreign reserves for political purposes. “The US Treasury market is a very important market for China,” it said.
However, the mood is hardening on both sides of the Pacific. The dispute risks escalating if China’s trade surplus with the US climbs further and more US jobs are lost. US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, who has taken a softly-softly line in the past, said on Friday that China had done “very little” to correct the undervaluation of the yuan since ending the dollar peg in June.
Mr Ding reflects thinking among some in the Poltiburo, who seem convinced that the US is in decline and that China’s rise as an exporter of goods and capital give it the upper hand.
“They are utterly wrong,” said Gabriel Stein from Lombard Street Research. “The lesson of the 1930s is that surplus countries with structurally weak domestic demand come off worst in a trade war.”
He described the implicit threat to sell Treasuries as “empty bluster” because Beijing’s purchase of these bonds is a side-effect of its yuan policy. “Bring it on: it will weaken the dollar, which is what the US wants. The interest rate effect can be countered by the Fed.”
“Some Chinese officials seem to believe that buying Treasuries underpins US public spending. In fact China’s mercantilist policy is forcing the US to run large deficits against its own interest. China should be terrified of a trade war.”
Global financial market tax is still on the table. So if we get a global tax, how do you ever get rid of it? Who do you vote out or petition? Do you think we would be in the majority or minority if it redistributes our wealth?
German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday renewed her call for a tax on international financial markets, insisting she would not give up the fight despite hefty opposition from her global partners
“We will continue to work for a tax on the financial markets,” Merkel said in a stormy debate in parliament on her government’s 2011 budget.
“The finance minister is doing this in several discussions and we are going to try to persuade as many countries as possible. Unfortunately, the world is not always as we would wish … but we are not going to give up,” she added.
At a meeting of European Union finance ministers earlier this month, members of the 27-country bloc clashed over the idea of imposing a tax of financial market transactions in Europe.
Citing ‘credible information’, the U.S. Embassy in Jordan today issued a warning to avoid the Jordanian port city on the Red Sea because of a ‘possible imminent threat in the Gulf of Aqaba region’. The threat wasn’t described in the short bulletin:
The U.S. Embassy recommends that all non-official and personal travel to Aqaba be deferred for at least the next 48 hours. For those U.S. citizens resident in Aqaba, the downtown and port areas should be avoided if possible.
It will be interesting to see what twists and turns this process takes. Especially with the US leaning toward the PA side via actions while saying they support Israel.
The United States has adopted almost all of PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s demands that a new PA state should include all of Judea and Samaria and parts of Jerusalem that were restored to Israel in the Six-Day War in 1967, nearly 2,000 years after the destruction of the Second Temple and the end of Jewish rule over the city. Many PA clerics and leaders deny that the Temples ever existed.
We know true peace will not come until Israel signs a seven-year peace agreement with the Antichrist. Both the Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38 wars need to occur before that point.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Wednesday morning laid the groundwork for arguing that Israel needs a new Arab state in order to remain “democratic and Jewish.”
Speaking with President Shimon Peres in Jerusalem at the opening of the second straight day of talks between Israel and PA leaders, Clinton stated, “The status quo is unsustainable” even if it can last for another 30 years. “The only path to ensure Israel’s future as a secure democratic and Jewish state“ is an Arab state, headed by the Palestinian Authority, “alongside” Israel.
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." -- Ephesians 2:8-10
