   -Stocks soar:  Dow posts best June since 1997 ...
   -Oil posts 4th biggest daily gain on record ...
   -Asian markets up sharply ...
   -Euro spikes against the dollar ...

... All this occurred when the Eurozone leaders struck an unexpected deal to work together to strengthen the Euro and "save" the Eurozone ... The deal is shaky at best, and I believe this 'breakthrough' to prevent catastrophe now ensures the entire system will collapse ..... and the 'zombie' markets are 'high on bath salts.' 
.... What everyone seems to 'conveniently' forget is that the massive debt is still there as well as the same political systems that got them into this mess!   ...... It's amazing how a small crumb can cause the markets to rally ... and how they seem to forget that the loaf from which the crumb came is still moldy ................

*BBC News - "Colorado wildfires declared disaster area"

*Reuters - "Seismologists warn Japan against restarting nuclear reactors"

This would appear to be good advice! ... especially since Fukushima is already poisoning the planet. ... If we stop and think for about two seconds, this move indicates a not-so-obvious situation.  The Japanese are smart people and would NEVER do this unless they absolutely had to.  ... Why, you ask? ... How else can they supply their people with energy.  They certainly have very limited natural resources and their national debt situation is worse than ours ... so that limits them in how much oil and other sources of energy they could import ... hence, a 'catch 22' ... or ... 'either way, we're screwed!'

   -Tragedy & misery ...

I'm telling you!  Scripture is happening right before our very eyes!  Look at just these past two days and tell me it's not true ... that this all is 'just the natural course of things'  .......And the real tragedy?  Most all don't either believe or understand that it's because of our 'national behavior' ... our moral and spiritual slide ... that has brought this all upon our land.  ... Either we turn our collective national face back to Almighty God .. and very quickly .. or its only going to get much worse ... and fast!

*The Telegraph - "The Economy - and you thought the first half of 2012 was bad? ... The second half promises to be much tougher"

Comment from article:  "The performance of the U.S. stock market has been a rare bright spot for America over the past three years." .... Yeah, and it's all based on "air" & false hope ... Trust me when I say that we are now building our financial houses on sand ... and the Bible tells us what will happen when the winds begin to really blow .... Matthew 7:24-27).

*The Blaze - "Atheist files discrimination complaint over PA restaurant's 10% Sunday discount for people with church bulletins"

These people seem to have 'something' nagging at them all the time 'cause they can never leave these sorts of things alone ...... wonder what it is? .....

*The Blaze - "Homeland Security-funded study lists people 'reverent of individual liberty' as 'extreme right-wing' terrorists"

I know this may sound trivial to some, but mark my words (no pun intended), couple this with the passage of the likes of Obamacare (forcing people to buy something) ... this is how the "mark of the beast" will come about.  Revelation 13:16-17 says. "He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, 17) 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."

*U.S. News - "Annual pastor's conference:  All white Christians invited" (This is in Alabama)...

Comment from article:  "Yes, we believe that the Europeans and their descendants are the chosen people of God." ..........  What Bible do these people read?! ... and how sad that they attach the name of Christ to such nonsense.  The Bible clearly states that ANY and ALL who accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior will be saved ... not just Europeans or any other specific race. ... These people are no better than any other 'cult' out there ... they should be ashamed!!

Well, that's it for this week ... and another "fun one" it was! ... Can you believe the weather stuff going on all around us? ... It amuses me (in a sad way) how the scientists are still trying to justify all these record-setting events as "the normal pattern of things" ... but even now, some are starting to question their own science.  ......... I remember back in 2010 when the experts said it was a very unusual year as far as climate situations go ... and then they called 2011 an 'extreme year' of highly unusual activity ... and look at 2012!  ... and we are only at the half-way point! .... I know I keep quoting these same scriptures, but Jesus told us all these things would take place, and would increase in number & severity as we draw ever nearer to His glorious return. ... In your quiet time, I suggest you read The Lord's teachings on what is now taking place.  You will find them primarily in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21.  If nothing else, it will give you a better understanding of what is happening now and what will going forward.

Have a great week .. and once again, thank you for your interest in our website.  ... We do care for each & every one of you and will continue to keep you informed as best as we can ....

Until next time,
