"And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of hades shall not prevail against it."

*CBS Atlanta - "Public schools give teachers 'panic buttons' to wear around necks"

... Wow! ... Once again, prophetic Scripture being fulfilled ... In 2 Timothy 3:1-5, it describes many of the human 'conditions' relating to the final days ...  including those which specifically spell out how 'children will be disobedient', and how 'many will be without self-control' ....

*NBC News - "Beijing pollution 'off the charts' again ... Beginning to affect entire region"

Another incredible week of prophecy-related news! ...... 25 major earthquakes in just this month alone is way above normal .... and more words like 'unprecedented' & 'record-breaking' keep popping up in the calamitous world-wide weather .... certainly "Birth pains" one & all ...

Something else that jumps out, at least to me, is our government's continuing moves to gain control of every aspect of our lives ..... Just look at the Bob Woodward story where the White House people are threatening him ... and why? ... because he doesn't agree with them?! ... Trust me when I say, more will be coming forward with the same complaint, at least as long as they are able to .... not to mention the 'domestic' drone implications, tracking devices, gun & internet control ... the list goes on ..... and then, to top it all off, our leaders appoint an anti-semite to oversee the Dept. of War!  .... add this blatant betrayal of God's chosen people with the continuing moral decay & the removal of God from our society, it cannot be long before God's judgement befalls our land ....
Also, we see the Eurozone's economy tanking again, coupled with our Fed continuing its pumping of worthless currency to prop up our economy .... If the earthquakes & crazy weather .... volcanoes or meteorites ... leaking nuclear facilities such as Fukushima, Chernobyl, and now Hanford .... don't get us, then the economy will! ...
I know this all sounds so negative, but what it really tells us is that Jesus was absolutely accurate in His Gospel prophecies concerning these last days (Matthew 24, Mark 13 & Luke 21) .... He said that all these things would take place, and would increase in intensity as we draw nearer to His return .... But remember that He also said ... "See that you are not troubled, for all these things must come to pass ... ." (Matthew 24:6)
I could keep going, but that's it! ... I'm done for this week .... I just want as many people as possible to know WHY the world is tumbling into the abyss. ..... Simply, if we understand something, fear then will go away ... Know that I am praying for each of you and will not stop until He comes for us! ... Hallelujah!!!
Until next time,
