No one can deny that everything is on the 'upswing' concerning the advancement of end-time Biblical prophecy .... Pestilence abounds ... Records in almost all categories are being set by the moment ... Christian & Jewish persecution on a sharp increase in most sectors of the world ... Many country's citizens are in the streets protesting various social inequities .. Drug-resistant diseases on the rise with a pandemic just around the corner .. Drought in California threatening life-giving water supplies ..



But the one that really stands out is the rapidly increasing signs concerning the fragile condition of the world's economy. ... We must remember that the coming 'New-World Order' will emerge from economic & civil chaos ... and its leader, the the eventual anti-christ, will rise up out of these ashes to claim ultimate leadership. .... Just how long before this comes about only God knows, of course. ... Personally, I think we have a bit more time, but rest assured, these next 12-18 months are going to prove pivotal in the timing of all of this. ... We will watch and 'enjoy' the ride together ... at least as long as we can ....



In the meantime, tell as many as you can about what is coming and what can deliver us from all this mess ... that being the Lord Jesus Christ! ... And read your Bibles. ... This will give you the foundation to survive even the worst of situations ...... (don't forget, I teach a Tuesday night end-time class right in Newberg. .. If you are interested, email me at .. hewillbeback@comcast.net .. and we can talk about it, or anything else that's on your heart. ....



I love you all, and am praying for each of you constantly ... and God knows exactly who you are .... Hallelujah! ..... so ...



Until next time,
