*The Vigilant Citizen - "The Occult meaning of Lady Gaga's new video G.U.Y."

Comment from article:  "While one could argue that Gaga playing the role of a fallen angel might not inherently imply that she's referring to Lucifer, a look at the symbolism later in the video strongly points towards it. .. Indeed, much of the video plays on the esoteric associations between Lucifer, Venus and Ishtar."


... The tragedy is that this obvious satan-follower influences many young minds all over the world! .. She is another 'pawn' in the massive deception being seen in this world ... just as Jesus Himself prophesied in Matthew 24 ......

*World Net Daily - "Christian publisher releasing pro-homosexual book:"

Comment from article:  "God of the 'gay' Christian:  The Biblical case in support of same-sex relationships."



.... In looking deeper into this story, we find the author to be Matthew Vines, a homosexual activist and Bible 'revisionist' known for manipulating Christian terminology to advance the counter-Christian homosexual agenda. ... The bottom line? .. The Bible is clear on this subject ... homosexuality is considered perversion and participants 'will not inherit the kingdom of God!'  (see 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 as just one of many scriptures supporting this) ......

.... U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has blamed the sudden deadlock in peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians on Israel's plan to build additional apartments in Gilo, a southern Jerusalem neighborhood beyond the so-called 'Green Line.' ...

Until the Palestinians recognize Israel as a nation and that they are NOT going to divide Jerusalem, there never will be any kind of talks .......



*Prophecy News Watch - "Reformation or Revolution?  A review of God and the 'gay' Christian"

..... This 'review' was based on 'gay' Christian  and advocate Matthew Vines new book." .... Cutting to the chase, this is the kind of stuff that appears to be splitting the American Christian community right down the middle .. and the numbers on the conservative side appear to be getting smaller by the day. ... and how tragic is this? ... Vines is coming right out of the new 'Emergent Church' generation that not only supports these perverse lifestyles, but also deny the existence of sin, as well as hell itself! ... Their whole agenda appears to be an attempt to 'adjust' the Bible's teachings so as to fit into their sinful desires .......

.... This comment comes from Gary DeMar at the American Vision Organization. .. He's taking on this issue and I couldn't agree with him more! ...

*Spiegel Online - "Weapon of last resort:  ECB (European Central Bank) considers possible 'Deflation' measures"



.... and, needless to say, this has raised major concerns within the global economic community. .. Why? ..

*CNS News - "Reverend Graham:  'Christians are being attacked by Hollywood and some of News Media' "



Comment from article:  " 'Anti-Christian actions are occurring in America and much of it is 'coming out of the entertainment industry and some segments of the news media,' said Reverend Franklin Graham, who added that 'Christians are being attacked and this is on the rise globally, along with increasing anti-Semitism.' "



*Zero Hedge - "Another financial services executive death - Woman, 52, questioned her superiors before jumping out the window"



.... This one happened in France .....



*Associated Press - "Beijing splurging on Military as U.S. pulls back"


.... Their leadership is calling for China to become a major Military-Industrial power. ..... Isn't it fascinating to watch the Kings of the North & East rise up while America, not mentioned specifically in Bible prophecy, is declining? ...

               -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Another week goes by ... and the "birth pains" continue to mount. ... One thing is the Middle East peace talks breaking down. .. Of course, that shouldn't surprise those of us who follow Bible Prophecy. .. Israel will continue to see increasing isolation and national hatred until the time of the peace treaty that will be orchestrated by the soon-coming world leader . ... Another thing that is becoming more apparent by the moment is the rapid rise of the Kings of the East & North. .. Both China & Russia are 'flexing' their collective muscles through increased military spending & political posturing ... and the U.S.? ... We are moving quickly in the other direction .. but then, that is what I expected would happen to the world's only remaining superpower. ... We are not specifically mentioned in Bible prophecy, so therefore we must soon 'exit' the power position on the world stage. ...



There's much more, but the one issue that really stands out this week is how we Christians are becoming the world's 'Public Enemy #1 .... the 'Enemy of the State' .... The comments by Reverend Franklin Graham sum it up quite adequately. ... "Christians are being attacked and this is on the rise globally, along with increasing incidents of anti-Semitism." ... Is he right or what?! .. In the last seven days we saw more firings in the public workplace for those refusing to submit to sinful practices ... Easter 'insults' through the public onslaught of legalized drug use ...  A teacher taking away a second-grader's Bible, telling her it is not allowed in public schools .. A Bible verse being taken away from a high school sports team because it is from the Bible .. and of course the continuing battle of the militant homosexual movement to literally change the meaning, or re-write Bible scriptures so as to justify their perverse lifestyles, and making those who stand against them the 'hateful, intolerant enemy' ..... It'll be interesting to see just how long our God will put up with America, and the rest of the world before His wrath is poured out .... Bible history shows that it WILL COME! .....



OK ... I'm done for another week .... Remember that I love you all and am praying for you constantly. ... hang in there, and NEVER give in to these evildoers that are promoting these lies of the devil ... and if you feel like you are under attack, go to Ephesians 6:10-18 where we are told to "put on the armor of God"  in difficult times. ... Rest assured, we will be victorious in the end! ..... Hallelujah!



Until next time,
