USA headed for a Depression?  April 1, 2008 –Kids fulfilled the Apostle Timothy’s warning for the last days.

If you aren’t new to my site you know I have been encouraging you to get your financial affairs in order. Read my posts from Feb. and March if you are new.  I explain there must be a shift in world powers. America must fall away as a major superpower and the European Union will take the lead headed by the man who Jesus warned us about.  This man, (Anitchrist) will arise in a time of trouble and seem to have all the answers to the world’s problems. In my book I give several scenarios how this Antichrist may appear on the scene to take control of the World.  At the present time America is in a resseccion and it now appears we are headed for even harder times. Many news agencies are now warning that the USA may be heading into another depression.  If America goes down she will start the dominio affect and  cause major problems for most of the world.  Signs of the last Great Depression are already showing up. For example The Independent covering World news just released these facts, “Food stamps are the symbol of poverty in the US.  In the era of the credit crunch, a record 28 million Americans are now relying on them to survive-a sure sign the world’s richest country faces economic crisis”  April 1, 2008.  We are also told that feeding a low-income family of four has risen 6 per cent in 12 months.  Just about every news agency is now reporting prices of everything is going to continue during 2008.  Don’t believe me, watch the National news tonight on TV and see what they report.  Our country (USA) is struggling to stay afloat.  When you read the the message  Jesus gave John in the book of Revelation you see a picture of the world with food prices so high most of the world will go hungry.  Jesus even names off the items the world will cry over during the end times.  It just so happens that most of the items in that list (Rev. chapter 18:11-14) are now sky rocketing.  What’s ahead for us?  Click to the link below and you will see a vision of what is coming.  There only way you will have peace in a trouble time is through Christ.  Go and vote this December for a new president, it won’t matter who gets the office, America  is in for a bad ride.  There are 2 groups of people who are facing the future as it is currently being reported.  Group one dosen’t know Christ, they have no hope, they are stressed out, they don’t understand what to do, they have no direction, they aren’t prepared from what Jesus said would come, and they are looking to a  new politician to solve their problems. Group two are those people who have already taken Christ as their Savior, they have read God’s Word, they know from prophecy what is coming, and they know why it is coming, they have hope, they are excited to be living in a time when all prophecy is being fulfilled because they know Jesus said He would return when all these things begin to take place. Group two is preparing themselves by joining with other Christians in prayer asking Christ for strength during these times.  This group is fulfilling the Word’s of Christ as He said, Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together , as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching” (Hebrews 10:25). This group is fully aware that hard times are on the way just as was warned, and they are going to the Rock (Christ) for strength and protection.  And finally, this second group is on the WATCH for the 2^nd coming of Christ, and they have the peace that Christ said he would give us.  This group exstead of saying “My God what do we do” are saying bring it on.  Question to ask yourself in these times is this, what group do you see yourself in?

USA 2008: The Great Depression  April 1, 2008

Example of how Timothy’s warning is being fulfilled. This is what He wrote in 2^nd Timothy: 3 1-5 “But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God-having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.”11 Students Plotted To Kill Third-Grade Teacher” Our society is falling apart mainly because our society is abandoning God and His teaching.  The break down of the family is worse than it has ever been and still getting worse.  What the children learn in their homes they carry out in society. Signs of what parents are teaching their kids are exactly what was warned in the bible. Below are only two examples of what I am talking about.  Click to see for yourself.  Question is, what are you teaching your kids?

A Group of Georgia Third Graders Plot To Attack Teacher-March 31, 2008

http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/topstories/news-article.aspx?storyid=106016

http://www.local6.com/news/15757528/detail.html

What you are about to read may take place in the very near future. It is possible future events will be played out this way, but only time will tell. What we do know is the timeing in which we are suppose to watch for these events to occur.  According to Bible prophecy we are to watch the Middle East and pay attention to several key events.  First, when Israel was born a nation again (which they have been since 1948), there would be a peace plan confirmed which when signed by many nations will last for a period of 7 years, or at least it is suppose to last for 7 years. Fact is Israel and the PLO are working on a peace plan that may be signed before this year is over. I have been warning people since 1977 that such a plan would be laid. During the period from 1976-2007 there have been many attempts to sign a peace agreement which would really bring peace, but as you know these nations have not been able to pull it off.  I believe it is all in the timing.  Most people when they see the news in the Middle East believe there will never be a peace agreement signed and that the nations will continue to fight.  I believe the timing for this covinant to be signed is coming up and it just may be Bush will pull it off before he leaves office.  At least right now current events show us this to be the case.  Even as the fighting continues the leaders are sitting down at the peace talks working out the final details for this new peace plan.  Today for the Middle East Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice again stated that they believe by the end of 2008 there will be a peace plan signed.  I am telling you now, there will be a covenant signed between these nations! Will this covenant be the one  the prophet Daniel warned us about in Daniel chapter 9?  We will all find out soon!  Here is the second key to the timing of this peace agreement.  It would be at a time when Russia was strong and they had allied themselves with Iran, Iraq, Ethiopia, Sudan, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco and Turkey.  When you read chapter 10 of my book you will see all the documentaion showing you Russia has already done this.  Just a short time ago Russia had fallen away as a superpower, their miltary almost fell apart and the nations of the world did not fear them any longer.  Russia went broke from fighting in Afghanistan and, they were having major problems just trying to feed their citizians.  But wait, if God was right Russia had to make a comeback because this nation is to lead a major attack on Israel in the last days when, Israel is calling for peace and safety! Well, right now Israel is calling for peace!  Look back at history and show me another superpower who went broke, was down and out, but came rushing back to be the number 1 richest nation in the world in a matter of a few years.  That is exactly what happen to Russia.  Just a few years ago Russia found oil and now went from rags to riches over night.  Not only is Russia rich in oil, they have put their money back into building up their miltary and now they are again a major superpower, and they are already flexing the muscles in the Middle East, exactly like they are suppose to do.  Keep in mind this time frame shows that when the attack is lead by Russia there will be these nations in the Middle East, the U.S., Canada, Austriala, and Great Britian.   Don’t be supprised to find out that is exactly who is fighting in the Middle East today.  The bible referrs to these nations as the (young lions of Great Britian or, Tarshish).  My book explains this in detail.  When the attack against Israel happens Saudi Arabia who is friendly with the young lions, will only give a protest to the attack.  Do you find it odd that Saudi Arabia is very friendly with the U.S. Canada, and Austriala and these nations have had miltary bases in Saudi Arabia?  Those of us who read God’s Word and know what to look for understand this is no fluke  As a matter of fact Saudi Arabia news just informed us their nation is now preparing themselves for a nuclear attack from Iran.  Why am I writing this?  For those of you who may not belive this attack is going to happen.  I want you to keep what I have written in your mind, so that when you see this attack being place out you will know it is time to drop to your knees and receive Jesus Christ as your Savior. I just pray Jesus doesn’t remove His church prior to this attack, otherwise you may be left behind to deal with the Antichrist who by the way will arise from the reborn Roman Empire, which by the way is the European Union.  This was another major key to understanding the time frame as to when the attack would occur.  All I can say at this point is this, God help those who’s eyes are blind to His Word and what is now taking place in Bible prophecy.  At the present time Israel is still thinking about attacking Iran to wipe out their nuclear plant.  If they do attack, it may be what flames the Russian alliance to go after Israel.  If America pulls out of Iraq, Iran will move in.  Feeling that they have beaten back America their next target will be Israel. 

In some of my other warnings I told you to keep your eyes on our prices of food. I warned they will continue to climb. I also am warning our economy will tank. Below are some current news just released on these subjects. Click to links

What is the big deal about Australia remaining in the Middleeast?

In chapter 10 of my book on p. 146 I note who are the nations in the MiddleEast at the time Israel is attacked. This attack on Israel is a major prophecy, and when it takes place all who know God’s Word will realize we have entered in the final stage or the beginning of the tribulation period, which is recorded in the book of Revelation. The following is the quote from my book. “Ezekiel Chapter 38:13 tells us that Great Britain who is the (lion), the United States, Canada, and Australia, who are the (young lions) are in the area of Saudi Arabia at the time the attack against Israel breaks out. These nations will do nothing to help Israel, except to give their formal protest to the massive invasion. Are these nations in the area right now? Yes they are. When the United States attacked Iraq in 2004 the nations who joined forces with America were, Great Britain, Canada, and Australia. These nations are still in Iraq today, and they have military bases in Saudi Arabia. When the attack against Israel begins there will be millions of men who come against Israel. America and her allies will not be able to do anything to help Israel; all they will be able to do is give their protest. Now that we know who will not help Israel when they are attacked, let us review what nations are listed that will attack Israel.” Recently there has been speculation that the new Prime Minister of Australia was going to pull all of his Australian troops out of Afghanistan and Iraq. The press has been waiting for Rudd’s announcement. Well, this morning on CNN President Bush had a news conference with the new Prime Minister of Australia. Rudd told reporters that he would leave troops in Afghanistan. Rudd also told reporters he plans to keep hundreds of others in Iraq in supporting roles. Why is this so important? One of the young lions mentioned in the scripture above is Australia. I believe that is why Rudd did not taken all his troops out of the Middleast. Currently, nations fighting in the Middleast along side of the United States are Canada, and Australia. Great Britain or as the scripture states (Tarshish) is also a major player in the Middleeast war. So what is the big deal about Australia staying in the region? If you read the prophecy it says, “all the young lions” will be there. If the U.S, Canada, and Australia are the young lions the bible speaks about, then they all have to stay there, and they are! News links below report on the current events in regard to these nations listed in the Ezekiel prophecy. When this attack on Israel takes place our fighting force will be so weak we won’t be able to do anything to stop it, except give a formal protect. Please keep in mind; I have been warning people since 1977 that these young lions, (Canada, the U.S. and Australia) would go to the Middleeast prior to the attack on Israel. Here we are in 2008 and the very nations mentioned in Ezekiel’s prophecy are in the exact place they are suppose to be! Is this just a coincidence? No it is not! Everything taking place in the Middleeast right now is leading up to fulfilling this major prophecy. All I can say is, keep your eyes on this region and become a believer in what God has written. I pray you take Christ as your Savior before this attack takes place, otherwise you may be one of the ones left behind when Jesus calls His church home. If you don’t know how to meet Christ, e-mail me and I will be honored to walk you into the Kingdom of God.

News covering what nations are fighting in the MiddleEast  U.K news.

http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/politics/threelinewhip/march2008/nicolasally.htm

On March 26, I posted this quote: “Everyone who has read my book since 1997 knows I waned them the U.S. dollar would fall, the European Union would take over as the last superpower, there would be a rise in plagues, the Earth would heat up and the glaciers would melt as record rates, we would see nations struggle to feed their people because the plant’s weather conditions would change, I warned food prices would increase causing extreme hardships and cause conflicts between nations, I warned that Russia would comeback as a world power and focus their attention on the Middle East, I warned you the price of Gold, Silver and a host of other items recorded in Revelation chapter 18 would skyrocket, such as the price of wheat.” Since I posted that warning recent news confirms what I told you would happen. Food prices have gone up again and nations are beginning to have conflicts because of this problem! Since 1977 I have been warning that huge storms would begin to destroy crops around the world and I have this recorded in my book in chapter 4 and 5. Recent news gives some details on how many crops have been destroyed by all these storms I warned about. Read what a new United Nations report had to say,”The United Nations warned yesterday that it no longer has enough money to keep global malnutrition at bay this year in the face of a dramatic upward surge in world commodity prices, which have created a "new face of hunger". If you have read any of my earlier posts you would know I warned you that this would happen, I warned you prices will rise, and there was going to be huge problmes steming from this. This is only the beginning! What you must understand is this, according to the warnings Jesus give us concerning these times, your situtition is going to get worse from here on out. When you read chapter 4 and 5 of my book you will get complete details on all these issues which planet Earth will be facing in the near future. Now for the good news! Before Christ returns to take His seat as King in Jerusalem, He promised to remove anyone who believed in Him from the 7 year tribulation period. If you don’t understand what this means you need to read the book of Revelation. There is a period of 7 years of which will be the worse time this planet has ever gone through. Billions will dies during this time frame. There will be very little food left, prices for everything will be so high people will die because they can’t afford to buy it. Thinks these storms are bad now? Jesus warned the nations of Earth would be preplexed at how violent the seas would become. Think the glaciers are melting fast now? According to Christ, the sun will be scorching hot, and there will be very little drinking water left. Even now many nations are saving water shortages because of global warming. The point is this, there is a safe way out of all this. The only way to protect yourself and your family will be through Christ. If you take His free gift of salvation now, the Lord will keep His promise to remove you from the tribulation which is heading for us. When I give prophecy seminars I ask this question. If you lived during Noah’s generation and Noah warned you that the world would be destroyed by a flood what would you do? Almost everyone I asked that question to told me they would have entered the ark for safety with Naoh. What is taking place is the exact same thing. Jesus has been warning you about what is coming soon and the only way to safetly is in Christ. In closing I want to quote what Jesus Christ said in Luke 17: 26-30, “And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.” Now let me ask you the question? Knowing what you now know, what are you going to do? Are you going to be like the ones who heard the Word, refused to believe and later died trying to get on Noah’s ark, or are you going to enter in Jesus who is the new ark of safety? I pray this material helps you make the right choice. Please pass this information on to as many as will listen, we are running out of time. Jump in rice price fuels fears of unrest

I am blessed that more people are reading my posts.  I know why the numbers have increased. The people who have been reading my posts know that I have been telling them what will happen before it happens.  One woman wrote me and said, "reading your post is like reading tomorrows newspaper today".  She said she was telling her whole family about my site so they could see these things come true as I wrote them.  Those of you who have already read my book know I just didn't write this information recently. I have been giving out these warning since 1977.  It just so happens everything I said would take place is in fact being reported in the news currently.  When I turned my slide show into book form in 1997 I had already warned thousands of people of events that would take place in the near future.  I was very specific in my details about what you much look for in prophecy.  Everyone who has read my book since 1997 knows I waned them the U.S. dollar would fall, the European Union would take over as the last superpower, there would be a rise in plagues, the Earth would heat up and the glaciers would melt at record rates, we would see nations struggle to feed their people because the plant’s weather conditions would change, I warned food prices would increase causing extreme hardships and cause conflicts between nations, I warned that Russia would comeback as a world power and focus their attention on the Middle East, I warned you the price of Gold, Silver and a host of other items recorded in Revelation chapter 18 would skyrocket, such as the price of wheat.  Every one of my warnings has come to pass.  For the past 3 months I have written posts on this site informing you what to look for next, in the more immediate future.  I have been relating things that Jesus has impressed upon my heart.  In February, I warned that the prices of oil, gold, wheat, silver, and food would climb to record prices.  Since I wrote that post, my warnings have all come to pass.  In earlier February I also told you the U.S. dollar would drop again, and the European Union euro would rise to new records.   I warned that we would begin to see major problems with food shortages, not just in the U.S. but also around the world. .  In my recent warnings in February I said watch for the U.S. to decline even further.  In the last 4 days news has started to pop up everywhere telling us that prices of just about everything are skyrocketing, and it just so happens these are the things I just posted in my warning a week earlier.  In the last two day we have seen news informing us drug-resistant TB rates in Russia are now soaring, the people in Alamosa, Colorado can’t even drink the water due to a salmonella bacteria contamination problem, Brazil is now dealing with a plague of the Dengue outbreak, the world is in a food price crisis, there is food shortages that are calling for urgent help, America which used to be rated number one as the most prosperous and stable nation in the world has just been ranked number 24, and most of the top ranked nations are now from the European Union,  now “store owners in lower Manhattan, ticket vendors at India’s Taj Mahal and Brazilian business executives heading to China all have one thing in common these days: They don’t want U.S. dollars.” today it was reported that the euro again has reached a new high against the dollar hitting past the $1.57 mark for the first time ever, today the price of oil has risen past  a $1.02  a barrel, and finally, yesterday it was reported that a vast Antarctic ice shelf was on the verge of breaking off, it is the size of the state of Connecticut,  and scientists are saying it is due to global warming, and last, Russia is making moves in the middleeast.  Why is everything I have been warning you coming to pass, because it is the truth.  It is not my truth; it is God’s truth. Everything I am telling you to watch for was written down in God’s Word in prophecy.  I urge you to read my book, which you can download on my site for free.  It may take a few minutes to download depending on your computer.  If you click to the links below you will be able to read the news reports I just wrote about.

March 26, 2008: What about earthquakes? The birth pains concerning earthquakes has been fairly still for 6 months. I am referring to the big quakes, the labar pains are about to continue again. Watch the news, it won't be hard to see.  When the ground starts shaking I assure you, the people will think of God!

Experts have been warning America every year that a collapse of the U.S. economy is going to take place, it is no longer if it will happen, but when it will happen.  In 1982 Fialka wrote a fictitious scenario but I believe he may have seen the handwriting on the wall for our future.  In January 2008 Fialka’s fictional script appeared to be coming true.  Citigroup and Merril Lynch were forced to turn to foreign investors for what is an unprecedented bail-out.  They had to seek 21 billion dollars from a foreign country to bail out the banks.  These banks had to seek funds to shore up their balance sheets that are currently being devastated by the subprime mortgage crisis just like in Fialka’s fictitious scenario.  You see it on the news almost every night. Thousands of people are walking away from their homes because they can no longer afford the high interest rates on their homes. Fialka’s fictional script became reality in September 2007, when there was a real run on the bank in England.  The Timesonline reported that, “The jitters plaguing financial markets spread to the high street for the first time yesterday as thousands of panicking savers queued to withdraw millions of pounds from Northern Rock, Britain’s eighth-biggest bank. The rush to pull out savings followed the revelation that Northern Rock had been forced to ask the Bank of England for a rescue injection of finance”(Sept. 15, 2007).  The Government’s worse fear is more banks will have to be bailed out, and more panic will set off a chain reaction that will bring down many governments.  CNNMoney.com just wrote, “The phrase "run on the bank" is really something you never want to hear. Yet that’s what best describes Bear Stearns’ swift demise – and it has caused investors to wonder if such a run could happen elsewhere” (March 18, 2008).  The U.S. government got so scared that there would be a major run on the Bear Stearn’s that they rode in and bailed them out, sending Bear Steran’s stock falling from $170.00 last year to $2.00 a share yesterday.  I can’t help to wonder is this the way America will fall?  What I do know is this, Jesus showed us who the next world power would be in line after the Old Roman Empire.  We know the European Union (EU) is that last world power Jesus pointed us to.  The world will soon begin to go through hard financial times.  There will be more runs on banks and more panic will set in.  In the end, the world will see a new world leader who will have what will appear to be the answers to this planet’s troubles, and this man will rise from the European Union, or revived Roman Empire.  Before this man enters on the scene there will be more signs of global financial troubles, and the signs are popping up everywhere.  Why did the government bail out Bear Steran’s?  “Experts say the risks of inaction were far greater. With investors backing away from anything linked to the U.S. mortgage market, the Fed aims to prevent the value of those investments from plunging even further, which could cause widespread fallout among big banks. "The problem is that unless the major financial (companies) are kept solvent, the economy will suffer (so much) that everybody’s livelihood will be affected," said Peter Wallison, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute”(TheStar.com March 18, 2008).  Soon this is exactly what is going to take place, and you are kidding yourself if you don’t prepare for it.  Here are some of the signs we are soon coming to the breaking point.

——————————————————————————————————

For the past 5 years banks have been lending money to families who really could not afford to buy a home.  Mortgage brokers managed to get millions of families into new homes by creative financing. Since the interest rates have climbed people who had these creative financing mortgages now don’t have the extra funds to pay their higher interest rates.  Hundreds of thousands of families are now forced to bail out leaving the banks holding the titles to all of these empty homes. This no doubt is causing panic, panic not only in the U.S. but overseas as well, because what happens to the American economy is going to affect the global markets.  Here is a short list of other signs that our economy is showing signs of collapsing, besides the current run on the banks.  On January 16, 2008 news from Yahoo Finance reported that “Higher costs for energy and food last year pushed inflation up by the largest amount in 17 years.” The Federal Reserve in January also informed the public that the Nations production was flat in December 2007. These findings added to the string of bad news and are adding to the evidence that the U.S. economy is slowing down.  One of the major signs our economy is going to tank is our falling dollar.  As of March 17, 2008 our U.S. dollar is now the weakest it has ever been against the euro, a very serious sign of a coming collapse.  A new report at the end of December 2007 showed sales of new homes plunged to their lowest level in more than 12 years.  “The annual rate of building permits issued last month stood at 1.4 million-22.6 percent lower than the rate last July.  And the rate of construction on new homes fell 20.9 percent compared with a year earlier, to 1.4 million ( nytimes.com Aug. 16, 2007).  “At the beginning of last year, many economists put the chance of a recession at less than 1-in-3; now an increasing number say 50-50 or even worse.  Goldman Sachs, the biggest investment bank on Wall Street, thinks a recession is inevitable this year” (From Washington- (AP) January 17, 2008).

Why is all this happening?  All these factors will play a very important part in Bible prophecy.  Many people what to know if America is mentioned in scripture, they figure if we are such a major superpower why aren’t we talked about in the bible?  I believe because the European Union, or (reborn Roman Empire), is to be the last world empire at the time Jesus returns, that the U.S. will decline and will not have the strength it once had.  Jesus shows us in the book of Revelation that during the reign of the Antichrist all focus will be on this revived Roman Empire (EU), not the United States.  The only place I see the U.S. mentioned is in the book of Ezekiel chapter 38:13.  It’s much to complicated to cover this issue in this post but, if you go to page 146 of my book you will read a detailed write up on what the U.S. does and where you will see her.  You can download this book free at this site, just click to post where it says download entire book.  In short, Ezekiel shows America as a weak nation not able to aid her allies.  It brings me no pleasure to tell you America will fall away as a major superpower.  All I can say is this, if Jesus said the Revived Roman Empire would take center stage during the end times, then their must be a shift in power.  What we are witnessing in our financial market place will speed up this shift in who is the last superpower reigning at the time Jesus comes back.  Just keep your eyes on the European Union this year, you are going to see them become even stronger as an empire.  Everything I am warning you about is based on scriptures taken out of the Bible.  Since God is TRUTH, expect every one of His prophecies to come true!  If you don’t believe it, just take a seat and watch the news, I promise you, you will see it unfolded before your eyes.

I want to thank those who are passing my posts on to your loved ones and friends, My viewer ship has increased 50% in the last few months.  In my heart I know the Holy Spirit is driving people to know the truth about His Words.  If you haven’t received Christ yet I encourage you, don’t wait any longer. Please let me know if you have made a commitment in Jesus by reading my posts.

What to watch for in 2008.  Lately most of my posts have dealt with the coming attack on Israel, the decline of the U.S. dollar, the rise of the (EU) European Union, and what will happen to the price of Gold, Silver and so on.  There are other signs Jesus listed that we need to keep on the watch for.  In my first book, in 1997, I pointed out that in the coming years nations would find themselves dealing with all types of new and old diseases.  Jesus made it a point to warn us that many plagues would appear on the scene in the last days. This one sign (plagues) would show up at the time all of the other prophecies would also be taking place.   Knowing that the end times would occur in stages I feel it is the right time to mention Christ’s warning.  Jesus said, the end times would take place with “birth pangs”.  "For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places; there will also be famines. These things are merely the beginning of birth pangs” (Mark 13:8).  When a woman gives birth her pain comes and goes.  When the child is getting ready to be delivered her pain gets much more intense until the baby is born.  This is the same type of thing that is to happen in the end times. For years doctors have warned us that we have been living on borrowed time, and sooner or later another major plague is going to hit us.  I can’t tell you, which one will come on the scene first, or which one will take the most life, all I know is they are going to come.  In my book, I outline as many of these strange diseases as I can, starting on page 61.  I give you detailed information as to what has happened and, what is currently taking place.  For the past year it seemed that news reports on these new deceases had tapered off.  The birth pains Jesus spoke have been in effect, but I fear the labor pains will continue again soon.  I’m not writing this to scare anyone, only to keep you in tone with what you are about to see in the news. Fact is, if Jesus said they would come, they are going to come.  One disease that doctors have been keeping their eyes on is the “bird flu”. Today, a USA Today report out of Jakarta Indonesia released by the (AP) stated, ”Efforts to contain bird flu are failing in Indonesia, increasing the possibility that the virus may mutate into a deadlier form, the leading U.N. veterinary health body warned”.  Mind you, this is only one out of many deceases we need to pay attention to.  HIV and AIDS although not being reported in the news any longer, is on the rise.  On the Issue of the Bird flu, since 2003 officials have been tracking how the Bird flu has been spreading.  When you click to the following link you will see that slowly the Avian Flu (Bird flu) is making its way across our globe.  In a time when nations are finding it harder and harder to feed their citizens, more live stock has to be culled (destroyed) to help stop the flu from spreading.  Millions of birds have been killed adding to the hunger problems. Since Jan. 30, 2008 the Bird flu virus has spread to Indonesia, Tibet and India. 

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/health/interactives/birdflu/  Below are links to news reports giving you information on just a few of the things I have been talking about.    I’m not asking you to believe me, all I am asking is, keep this on file and watch the news.  Soon you will be coming back to this site to ask me, “how did I know that”?   Please understand this one last point.  It is the key to understanding the times in which we are living.  Christ said, “But when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads; because your redemption draweth nigh (Luke 21:28). In Matthew 24:33 Jesus said, “So likewise you, when you shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.  Jesus told us straight out in Matthew 24:34 that the generation who witnessed the rebirth of the nation Israel would be alive to see all these things take place.  Our generation is the first and only generation ever to witness everything Jesus warned us about.  Earth is closing in on the end of the generation who saw Israel’s rebirth.  Before that generation is gone Jesus Christ will have already returned to Earth as King of Kings.  This is the main reason why so many people can not only feel something is wrong, but they are beginning to see it on the news every night.  The only problem is, most people watching the news don’t have a clue what they are witnessing in the news is fulfillment of bible prophecy.  I am here to connect the dots for you.  My prayer is this, once you see what I am showing you is the truth, you will turn to the bible and read it. Jesus is waiting for you at the door, just knock and ask Him in.  One thing you don’t want to happen is to check out of this life without having Jesus as your Savior!

March 19,2008:Salmonella outbreak may be tied to water http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080320/ap_on_re_us/salmonella_tap_water

Today’s headline: March 17, 2008. "Bank agony, money squeeze batter stocks, dollar" (REUTERS).  If you have been coming to my site you would have noticed all the things I have warned you about have come to pass. On March 13, 2008 I issued another warning after the dollar hit another low against the euro.  If you go back and read that post you will see I said that the dollar would drop even further.  Four days later the dollar sank to the lowest level ever against the euro!  The Reuters report informed the reader that, "The euro soared as high as a new record $1.5904 before dropping back to $1.5774."  Last week the dollar dropped against the euro.  The euro hit 1.5625.  Am I a prophet?  Only in the sense that I am pointing the way to Christ and, the warnings He told us to watch for. I’m just connecting the dots between bible prophecy and current events. I keep telling you that the European Union will rise while America declines.  God outlined all the world powers from the time Daniel the prophet was alive all the way till the return of Christ!  The last power standing as a world power (World Empire) will be the reborn Roman Empire or EU. The currency change is only one part of the puzzle.  In my earlier posts I also warned to keep your eyes on the price of Gold because it will continue to climb, well this is what was reported in the news today March 17, 2008. "Investors dived into safe haven assets, lifting gold to more than $1,030 an ounce at one point and sending yields on short-dated euro zone debt below 3 percent for the first time in more than two years" (Reuters). 

——————————————————————————————————————

I know President Bush seems to think America is okay, but scripture points to our fall to make way for the Empire which will bring in our long awaited Messiah (Jesus Christ).  Don’t think things are going to get better anytime sooner. These are sign you should look for in the coming months. First the dollar will drop again against not only the euro but also other currencies. More nations will drop the dollar and begin to use the euro as their standard. Gas will continue to climb and the Middle East is going to continue to be a hot spot.  Israel will be forced to protect themselves from more rockets being launched inside of their nation, and conflicts will arise on the boarders of Israel again. Israel’s enemies will never give up until they set their feet in Jerusalem, and this will cause a major war.  Iran will form closer ties with Iraq; Russia will begin to demonstrate their new military power. Don’t be surprised to see some Russian troops move into the Middle East before this year is over.  Why are all these things going to take place, because I said so?  No! The Word of God outlined events of the future for us, so when we saw these things take place we would know God’s Words could be trusted.  Read my free book, which you can download at my site, if you have any questions you, can e-mail me at the address given on my site. Below are the links to the news of March 17, 2008 concerning the fall of the dollar.  Right now Israel is taking steps to prepare their people for war. In the Jerusalem Post today it was reported, "In the face of a possible escalation with Syria and Iran’s efforts to obtain a nuclear weapon, parts of the country will shut down next month in what security officials say will be the largest emergency exercise in Israel’s history."  Take this warning to heart, God showed us in the book of Isaiah chapter 17:1 that the city of Damascus in Syria would be taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. Nothing like this has ever happened to Damascus.

—————————————————————————————————————–

Something is going to take place soon that will cause Damascus to fall.  Right now Israel is preparing for war and they are getting ready to deal with Syria.  WorldNetDaily reported late in Oct. 2007 that, "Israeli security officials speaking to WND said Syrian President Bashar Assad is under heavy pressure from Iran and from senior elements within his military to retaliate for the Israeli aerial strike, especially since the Israel Defense Forces yesterday officially confirmed a raid in Syria took place." Since Oct. pressure to attack Israel has increased from both inside Syria and Iran that is one reason why today the Israeli government is taking steps to prepare for war.  What we are seeing in current events are the stepping-stones to fulfill Isaiah’s prophecy.  Many news agencies are predicting that by the end of March Syria will engage Israel with the PLO, and Hamas at their side.  If things get heated enough, Israel may be forced to take out the Syrian Capital (Damascus). There is only a hand full of prophecies left to be completed and Isaiah 17:1 is one of those prophecies. Don’t find it strange that Israel is having trouble with Iran and Syria. This is exactly what the Word of God has warned us.  I would pay close attention to the news this summer as far as the Middle East is concerned!  To read an in depth look at what will happen in the Middle East turn to chapter 10 in my book.  The time to get right with Christ is now, if you are walking the fence, you had better make the decision to either walk with Jesus or become His enemy, we are running out of time to make that choice.  God has given everyone a free will to choice, but I do know this, Christ desires that you enter into His Kingdom now while His grace is still on this Earth. Once the 7-year tribulation begins, the bible shows us those who refused Jesus message of Salvation now will have to die for Christ to enter into His Kingdom during the tribulation period.

"Israel to hold massive emergency drill"

On a differnet note, the U.N. on March 16, 2008 came out with their latest report on how fast glaciers are melting. A CNN report stated, "Glaciers are shrinking at record rates and many could disappear within decades, the U.N. Environment Program said Sunday. Scientists measuring the health of almost 30 glaciers around the world found that ice loss reached record levels in 2006, the U.N. agency said" (CNN.com).  In chapter 13 of my book I give very specific details as to what is going to happens to Earth as the glaciers continue to melt.  One of the many signs Jesus pointed out for us was to keep our eyes on the oceans. We were told there would be strange tides and Jesus states, "On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea"( Luke 21:25). Link to report is below.

I will keep you informed and keep connecting the dots between prophecy and current events. There are still hundreds of thousands of people who know little or nothing concerning the Signs of The Times Jesus gave us.  You will see first hand we are already in the final days, and the promise Jesus made us about His returning to Earth will shortly come to pass.

On March 13, 2008 I showed you how the dollar would fall. The day after I said, watch and you will see the dollar slip even futher, it did. For the first time the Swiss franc beat the U.S. dollar. Then on March 14, 2008 when people thought the dollar wouldn’t drop any futher, I said, watch, because it will continue to slip. Two days after I said watch the news and see, this report hit the headlines, "Dollar Drops on Trouble at Bear Stearns" When you read that report you will find that the once mighty dollar hit another low against the euro. The euro traded for an all-time high $1.5657 surpassing a previous peak of $1.5625. Links below will take you full reports.

Question you may have is this, will the dollar drop against the euro even more?  Yes! Once you understand that the European Union (reborn Roman Empire) is taking her place in prophecy you will come to understand America’s dollar will not only fade, but she will take back seat to the new world power, the EU. To fully understand what is about to take place, download my free book at this site. Read chapter 2 which deals with the last world power to rule at the time Jesus returns.

Dollar falls below parity vs Swiss franc,    March 15, 2008

http://sg.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20080314/tbs-markets-forex-swiss-franc-7318940.html?printer=1

I hope to God the people visiting my site take what I have said to heart.  Since 1977 I have been trying warn those who cared to listen that the dollar would fall and the new currency from the European Union would crush the U.S. dollar. Here on my site on Feb. 27, March 8, and March 12 of 2008, I posted more warnings to watch the price of Gold take off and, I again stated the dollar would continue to fall against the euro. Today March 13, 2008 my warnings have come true again. Today the U.S. dollar fell against the euro to a new low. The euro hit $1.56. against the U.S. dollar, and Gold also hit a new high hitting $1.000 an ounce. The links below will take you right to the news reports.  I suggest if you are new to my site you read my earlier post which are still up at my site. I hope by now you understand Bible prophecy is being fulfilled. The reason why the dollar has taken a dive is because the European Union (EU) or reborn Roman Empire, is taking her place as the last world power.  To understand what I am saying about the EU turn to chapter 2 of my book. 

You can download the book for free at my site, just look for the post which says download entire book. It is a free book and a free download. Please share this information which the people you care about the most. By the way, Gold will continue to rise and the dollar will drop again against the euro! I welcome any comments.
