*Turner Radio Network - " **** Flash **** Indications of severe earthquake/eruption at Yellowstone National Park"

Comment from article:  "A seismometer inside a bore hole at Yellowstone Park has begun reporting 'staggering' underground activity near the southwest corner of Yellowstone Lake."

February 5

*Alliance News - "Scientists warn of H10N8 Bird Flu virus found in humans for the first time -- potential Pandemic implications"

*The Balfour Post - "John Kerry in troubled waters"

..... Why? .. Because they (Israel) simply don't trust or respect him! .. Here's an example as to why .... He doesn't 'negotiate' with Israel at all .. He goes to them and 'tells' them what they will agree to .. and then tells the international press just the opposite! ... Purely deception! ... John Kerry and Barack Obama deserve each other. ..

*Climate Depot - "4,406 U.S. record cold temperatures in January -- 1,073 snowfall records"

*Mail Online - "The mystery of the North Star:  Astronomers baffled to find Polaris is getting brighter"

*Space Daily - "Britain grapples through worst torrential rainfall in hundreds of years"

*Independent Media - "President Obama: Lasting peace requires Jewish freedom of worship and access to Temple Mount"

.... A White House memo said this:   The President -- "As we support Israelis and Palestinians as they engage in direct talks, we've made clear that lasting peace will require FREEDOM OF WORSHIP and ACCESS TO HOLY SITES FOR ALL FAITHS..  And in contrast to THOSE WHO WIELD RELIGION TO DIVIDE US, let's do more to nurture the DIALOGUE BETWEEN FAITHS that can break cycles of conflict and build TRUE PEACE, including in the Holy Land." (emphasis mine) ...

.... So what do we see here? ..
   1) 'Access to Holy Sites by all faiths' ... This is directly against our God's laws! ... Jerusalem IS God's Holy City ..
        ... and only His ...
   2) We see accusations of 'us' dividing the effort to bring 'all religions' together in peace. .. Sounds very 'world
        churchy' to me .....
   3) The delusion that we -- mankind -- can achieve world peace through our own efforts. ... Sorry, Mr. President,     
        but it ain't gonna go down that way! ....

*World Net Daily - "Iran media:  Israel rebuilding Temple"

.... The rumors are spreading .. and tension is increasing ...

*World Net Daily - "General Boykin:  U.S. Christians targeted for murder"

.... The General says that many leftist groups list Christians as 'hate groups' .. which then leads to targeting by certain elements of the society .... Scary, but not surprising ...

*New York Times - "Unemployment falls to 5-year low" 
    -Teen rate hits 21% ...
    -Black teen unemployment jumps to 38% ...

.... But wait! .. The unemployment rate 'falls' to 6.6% according to the government's 'method of counting'   .... I think this 'method' is totally broken! .... More deception!

*MY 9 - New Jersey - "Vein Scan Payment System Launched"

.... This new technology actually scans palm veins underneath the skin! .. It is to be launched in 3-6 months .. Mass production is set to roll out in the late spring.  ....... What does this look like to you? .. Technology is now here for the soon-coming "Mark of the Beast" which will be placed either on the foreheads or backs of right hands  (see Revelation 13) ...... Soon, without this type of "mark," one will not be able to function normally in today's society. .... What is the penalty for anyone who accepts the "mark?" ..... eternal damnation! .... We must be very careful from this point forward when it comes to accepting certain types of 'identities' .... (I'll explain further in a soon-coming commentary) ... TIME IS SHORT! ...
                  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, what a time we live in! ... I know I say this every week, but it just keeps 'outdoing' itself each & every week! ..
Needless to say, the last article shows just how close we are to the soon-coming identification system that will be a signature of the coming antichrist. ... Many Christians believe the Rapture will take us out of here before this decision has to be made .... While this is most likely true, I still want my fellow brothers and sisters to be fully aware of the fact that it is here .. the technology has finally been developed to accomplish this prophecy! ... Daniel 12:4 says that "knowledge will increase in the last days." ...... Well?

The other thing that's heavy on my heart is what America is doing to Israel as far as these current negotiations are concerned. ... Simply, we have put PM Netanyahu in a complete 'no-win' situation (we must pray for him) ... give away land & split Jerusalem .. or .. we will put sanctions upon your people and destroy your already fragile economy. ... Our leaders should be ashamed! .. and I'm certain God is NOT pleased .. It just provides another reason for Him to pour out His wrath upon our fallen nation. ....

OK .. enough! .... Are you remembering to pray for me as well as each other? ... I certainly hope so, cause we all need to pull together right now, more than ever! ... Know that I am praying for each & every one of you ... and remember, God knows who you are .... Hallelujah! ....... See you again soon, and .........

Until next time,
