Obama's Citizenship

Is our President a U.S. citizen?

This is a story that just won't die. Is it because it's true that he is not? Or is it because there is a group of people that so despise the guy that they will do everything in their power to tear him down?

According to the information that I will post below, some of the citizenship evidence is heading to the supreme court;

VERY QUIETLY OBAMA'S CITIZENSHIP CASE REACHES THE SUPREME COURTAP-

WASHINGTON D.C.
- In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has Released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College . Released today, the transcript school indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California.

The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship. This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking.

I have to admit that when you read some of the quotes (if in fact they are true quotes) of what Obama said when he was running for Senator....the issue becomes very fishy indeed.

Remember one thing.....if Obama WAS found to be ineligible for the Presidency and had to step down.....it could be an event that causes massive riots and chaos....and could further damage our already tenuous reputation within the global community.

Israel Finds Oil

Looking for good news on this Christmas eve?? First off remember that Jesus Christ was born to atone for all of our sins so that we might be covered by the blood of the lamb and escape the wrath and judgement that we deserve.

Secondly, Israel has found oil!

Last year they found a huge amount of natural gas....and now they have found oil.

An Israeli oil exploration company on Thursday announced that it had found a huge amount of oil and gas during drilling below the city of Rosh Ha'ayin this week.

Remember to pray for Israel today as we are eternally thankful to the Jews who endured much so that we all may live.

Vote While No Ones Looking

It seems our elected officials in Washington are trying to shove some things through quickly....while no one is looking.

One of them is healthcare reform.....which will be a fiasco.

But the other one they are shoving through is raising the U.S. debt limit. Yes, it's a figure that congress must vote on. It's kind of their self-imposed credit limit. The democrats desperately want to raise this debt limit in 2009 so they don't have to have it rubbed in their face during the election year of 2010.

We have posted about this in the recent past.

In the article posted below, I found this statement which is interesting to actually see in print;

The Treasury Department has warned that it would likely reach the current debt limit by December 31, potentially putting the United States at risk of default.

The government posted a record $1.4 trillion deficit in the fiscal year ended September 30 and is on track this year to spend at least $1 trillion more than it collects.

The debt has more than doubled since 2001, due to wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, tax cuts and the worst recession since the 1930s, one that has caused tax revenues to plunge and spending on federal safety-net programs to rise.

Senate leaders set the debt-limit vote for Thursday, Christmas Eve, just before lawmakers go home for the holidays.

Did you catch that??....U.S. at risk of default? Did you see when they will vote to allow the Treasury to print more money...on Christmas eve right before they all disappear for a month of Holidays?

Folks....if by now, you haven't recognized that this country is being run by a bunch of out-of-control monkeys...who can't tell the difference between common sense and a banana....then you simply aren't paying attention.

Please continue to pray for our leaders in Washington lest we forget that they also are at the heart and center of the spiritual battle taking place as these last days play out.

Eerie Headline

The Bible tells us that a one-world-government will be coming in the very last days. Originally the people will welcome this government as an answer to all their problems. Furthermore, they will fall in love with the most charismatic leader to ever walk the planet.....he will be the Antichrist.

But after 3 1/2 years of peace....that same government will turn on a lot of people...particularly Jews and new followers of Christ. And the Antichrist will force everyone to take the "mark of the beast" in order to be part of his system.

It you refuse....they will come after you and there will be no place to hide.

If you accept the mark....your name will be stricken from the book and you will join Satan in the lake of fire when Christ returns.

That's why this headline on the front page of Google was so eerie;
There will be nowhere to run from the new world government

There is a whiff of totalitarianism about this new theology, in which the risks are described in such cosmic terms that everything else must give way. "Globalism" is another form of the internationalism that has been a core belief of the Left: a commitment to class rather than country seemed an admirable antidote to the "blood and soil" nationalism that gave rise to fascism.

Of course, this article has nothing to do with prophecy and I'm sure 99% of the world has NO CLUE that the Antichrist is coming.....but it is simply more evidence of the foreshadowing all around us that tells us these things are imminent.

Again, what did Jesus say?...."when you BEGIN to see all these things....then look up for your redemption is near."

Dark Matter

The Bible gives us many clues that MOST of the universe around us is currently hidden from our view. It's there...we just can't see it.

A few passages come to mind. The first one is from Ephesians that tells us our battle isn't against flesh and blood...but with the unseen evil forces and leaders of darkness.

Another really cool passage is from 2 Kings. Elisha prayed that the Lord would open the eyes of Elisha's servant...and when he did he could see into another dimension...and saw they were surrounded by the Lord's army sitting on horses and chariots. But they were not visible to anyone else.

The article below is interesting for a few reasons; first it has a Minnesota connection. And second....because scientists believe they are on the verge of discovering that there is 10 times more "stuff" in the universe than we can actually see.

It's appropriately called, "dark matter."

In early December, the Cold Dark Matter Search (CDMS) experiment located in the deep Soudan Mine in northern Minnesota leaked a tantalizing hint that they may have discovered something remarkable. The experiment is designed to directly detect new elementary particles that might make up the dark matter known to dominate our own Milky Way galaxy, all galaxies, and indeed all mass in the universe—so news of a possible breakthrough was thrilling.

Beginning in the 1970s, evidence began to accumulate that there was much more mass out there than meets the eye. Scientists, mostly by observing the speed of rotation of our galaxy, estimated that there was perhaps 10 times as much dark matter as visible material.

Theorists who had proposed the existence of such particles realized that they could have been produced during the earliest moments of the fiery Big Bang in numbers that could account for the inferred abundance of dark matter today. Moreover, these new particles would have exactly the properties needed for such material. They would interact so weakly with normal matter that they could go through the Earth without a single interaction.

"And knowledge shall increase....." says that book of Daniel about the Last Days.

Line in the Sand

We have been watching Obama and The West draw lines in the sand that Iran MUST NOT CROSS in regards to it's illegal nuclear program.

The problem is that Iran keeps crossing it... and Obama and The West simply keep redrawing the line.

The current line is drawn for the end of the year. On any one's calendar...that means December 31.

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran's president on Tuesday dismissed a year-end deadline set by the Obama administration and the West for Tehran to accept a U.N.-drafted deal to swap enriched uranium for nuclear fuel, and claimed his government is now "10 times stronger" than a year ago.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's remarks underscored Tehran's defiance in the nuclear standoff — and also sought to send a message that his government has not been weakened by the protest movement sparked by June's disputed presidential election. His comments came a day after the latest opposition protest by tens of thousands mourning a dissident cleric who died over the weekend.
President Barack Obama has set a rough deadline of the end of this year for Iran to respond to an offer of dialogue and show it will allay fears of weapons development. Washington and its allies are warning of new, tougher sanctions on Iran if it doesn't respond.

Did you catch that phrase, "rough deadline"? Makes one wonder if the Associated Press just helped Obama prepare to move that line one more time.

So when Iran refuses (which it already has)....Obama will be able to give another speech saying that Iran has "roughly" until January (that could mean til February 1...right?) to comply with the wishes of The West.

One thing for sure....if you ever want to empower a lunatic, a bully or a bratty child....just keep talking but never follow through with your threats. It works every time.

Ezekiel Called it!

Most by now are familiar with Ezekiel 38-39 that talks about a Last Days coalition.

That coalition will be led by the leader of the people of Magog (now called Russia). Joining them will be a horde of angry Arabs, Turks and Persians. (Iran)

What are they so angry about?

Israel. (Surprise!!)

We have seen some VERY rapid movement on this building coalition and have blogged of it often. Most staggering is to watch how Turkey has literally turned away from The West in a matter of months...and run into the arms of the Russians and Iranians.

And now it appears that Russia wants to make friends with a Muslim horde spoke of in this never fulfilled prophecy.

ALK KUWAIT, December 21 (Itar-Tass) - The fifth conference of the strategic vision group “Russia and Islamic World” opened in the Kuwaiti capital on Monday. It has been organised by the Russian Council of Muftis and the Kuwaiti ministry for the affairs of waqufs and Islam.
President Yunus-Bek Yevkurov of Ingushetia addressed the conference and read a message of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, in which he stated that Russia, which has the status of an observer in the Organisation of Islamic Conference, “is determined to develop cooperation with the Islamic world.”

Will this prophecy soon be fulfilled? Will we be here to witness God crushing this coalition as they are on the verge of destroying Israel?

Or will we be watching the whole thing unfold using our new glorified eyes....given to us at the Rapture?

Prophecy watchers are NOT in agreement on the exact timing of the Rapture in relation to the above mentioned coalition...but one thing that they do all agree on....it will either be SOON BEFORE of SOON AFTER.

Either way......it's soon.

God's Humor

Last week we posted how comical it was that while Obama was in Copenhagen discussing global warming....his house in Washington D.C. was getting pelted by the worst blizzard in 70 years.

In that same tone, I had missed this headline from Bloomberg;
Blizzard Dumps Snow on Copenhagen as Leaders Battle Warming

Honestly, it must have been rather embarrassing to the leaders of the conference.

Dec. 17 (Bloomberg) -- World leaders flying into Copenhagen today to discuss a solution to global warming will first face freezing weather as a blizzard dumped 10 centimeters (4 inches) of snow on the Danish capital overnight.

Who Will Buy Them?

I won't go into long detail again about how the U.S. Government gets money in it's checkbook except to say it is done by the U.S. Treasury selling T-bills and T-bonds at auction.

Over the past 20 years it has been very easy to sell them because there seemed to be an unlimited supply of foreign investors and foreign governments who wanted to buy them.

As we have been saying all along.....that process could come to a screeching halt when no one shows up to buy the T-bonds.

Then what happens when the U.S. government is forced to live within it's means because no one will loan them any more cash?

Check out some of these statements from a Chinese paper;

In a discussion on the global role of the dollar, Zhu told an academic audience that it was inevitable that the dollar would continue to fall in value because Washington continued to issue more Treasuries to finance its deficit spending.

He then addressed where demand for that debt would come from."The United States cannot force foreign governments to increase their holdings of Treasuries," Zhu said, according to an audio recording of his remarks. "Double the holdings? It is definitely impossible."

Remember that the U.S. government will NEVER be truly out of dollars.....because they can always print them in an unlimited supply....and the general public has NO WAY of finding out how many $zeroes they have magically created in their checkbook....until we wake up one day to find that our $1200 Social Security check won't buy us a weeks worth of groceries.

What kind of chaos might ensue if the $1200 welfare checks being sent to millions of inner city recipients also fails to buy a weeks worth of groceries?

Sorry folks....but IF that day comes and you and I are still here to see it.....it will be chaos that could quickly turn into anarchy.

It's Not Only About the Money

If have heard from many people who are in the financial business that, "the market is coming back". It's like they believe that the stock market is a barometer of America's health....and that somehow, if the stock market comes back to where it was....everything will be O.K. again.

But is that going to fix the pornography problem that is ripping apart marriages? Is that going to fix the welfare problem that has 40% of U.S. citizens getting some sort of aid from the government? Is that going to fix the "it's all about me" attitude that has taken over so many of us? Is that going to fix the fact that most Americans never read their Bibles and have no concern for what the word of God has to say to them?

I have asked many people the simple question, "Is it going to get better or worse in the next 5 yrs?" in regards to the lack of morality that has swamped this country.

I have NEVER had anyone tell me that they believe it will get better....because everyone realizes that TV, movies, divorce, etc....are only going to get worse.

There is a great article in the Wall Street Journal that is also asking this very question.

I'd like to see a poll on this. Yes or no: Have we become a more vulgar country? Are we coarser than, say, 50 years ago? Do we talk more about sensitivity and treat others less sensitively? Do you think standards of public behavior are rising or falling? Is there something called the American Character, and do you think it has, the past half-century, improved or degenerated? If the latter, what are the implications of this? Do you sense, as you look around you, that each year we have less or more of the glue that holds a great nation together? Is there less courtesy in America now than when you were a child, or more? Bonus question: Is "Excuse me" a request or a command?
So much always roils us in America, and so much always will. But maybe as 2010 begins and the '00s recede, we should think more about the noneconomic issues that leave us uneasy, and that need our attention. Not everything in America comes down to money. Not everything ever did.

The Bible tells us that man will get progressively more wicked and the love of many will grow cold. It will NEVER get better.....says God.

Thank you God that you sent your son to save us from ourselves and to carry us away from the fallen and dying planet.
