So Is It Warming or Cooling?

Centuries ago scientists told us the world was flat.  In the 1970's they told us to prepare for another ice age.  In the 2000's they told us to get ready for rising sea levels with global warming.  Now today we see this headline;

Report: Scientists predict a century of global cooling

Solar activity is one line of evidence scientists have used to find global cooling. Low sunspot activity has been linked with colder periods in human history, like the “Little Ice Age” during the 1600s, while higher levels of sunspot activity have been linked to warmer periods.

“When we have had periods where the sun has been quieter than usual we tend to get these much harsher winters,” Sunderland University climate scientist Dennis Wheeler told the Daily Express.

Last year, Russian scientists argued that the world could soon plunge into another Little Ice Age based on solar activity, heralding a new “Little Ice Age.”

“After the maximum of solar cycle 24, from approximately 2014 we can expect the start of deep cooling with a Little Ice Age in 2055,” wrote Habibullo Abdussamatov of the Russian Academy of Science.

“So the warming we saw, which lasted only from 1978 to 1998, is something that is predictable and expectable,” said Don Easterbrook, professor emeritus of geology at Western Washington University. “When the ocean changed temperatures, global cooling is almost a slam dunk. You can expect to find about 25 to 30 years yet ahead of us before it starts to warm up again. It might even be more than that.”

I'm not dissing scientists...of course God has provided them with brains to figure things out for the advancement of us all!  Want to solve polio virus??...get some scientists on it.  Want to make a nuclear bomb?...get some scientists on it?  Want a car to run on natural gas?...scientists.

But sorry, when it comes to telling us HOW the climate works amidst blowing volcanoes, ocean currents, sun spots, cloud cover, underground magma rivers, (yep, I said it...magma) and how it all interacts with this giant planet hurtling around the sun and spinning on an axis...maybe they should give us their best hypothesis of what they THINK might happen.

Here is what I do know....God has it ALL under control.  There has never been one time in eternity past, present or future where God says, "oops!  Wow...would you look at that!  Didn't see that coming!"

"Whole World is Going to Collapse"

Who says the whole world is going to collapse?  Big Bird from Sesame Street?  Nope.  None other than famed billionaire investor with a bow tie named Jim Rodgers.

Famed investor Jim Rodgers is predicting a disastrous scenario for the global economy. “Eventually, the whole world is going to collapse,” he told CBC in a recent interview.

 

Rodgers said “we in the West have staggering debts,” noting that the United States is the “largest debtor nation in the history of the world.”

 

“This is going to end badly,” he warned.

 

Rodgers went on to warn of the “next crisis,” which he predicted may occur in 2015 or 2016.

 

“The next correction when it comes, because the debt is so very high — you know, 2008 was worse than 2002 because the debt was so much higher. You wait until 2015 or 2016 when the next crisis hits… debt has gone through the roof, the next one’s gonna be really bad”

 

His advice: “Be prepared, be worried, and be careful.”

Holy monkey wrench!!  If the world collapses that sure is gonna put a divot in my plans to buy an Arizona golf home and a beach house in Florida!!  How the heck am I gonna fulfill my goal of sitting in a lawn chair reading romance novels during my 'golden years' if this dufus is correct??

 

Well, Team Obama and all the media are telling me that everything is getting better...so I choose to ignore Dufus Rodgers and instead will cling to my hope and change offered to me by Team Obama and CNN.  I mean, come on...have you seen the stock market soaring lately?  We are all going to be sitting beach side in Florida in just a few more years if we can continue to average 25% per year for the next 5-10 years!!

 

Let the good times roll!!

 

Friends, just remember...the whole world HAS TO COLLAPSE in order to bring the NEW WORLD ORDER into fruition.  Remember, the Antichrist isn't going to invent this system....he is just going to show up to take it over...and then he will IMPROVE on it...and everything in scripture WILL BE FULFILLED.

 

When you see all these things BEGINNING TO HAPPEN then lift up your heads because your redemption is drawing near.

Stupidity Sweeps the Nation!

Back in 1979-1981 I worked as a dishwasher at a nursing home.  I was 16 when I got the job and remember working for about $3.25 per hour.

Now let's imagine back then that a CNN camera showed up at the nursing home and asked me, "Dennis, are you upset that you can't afford your three kids, rent, gas and a living wage by working this job?  Are you going to strike?"

Even back then I would have said, "Ummm....this is just a job for high school kids who need to put gas in their cars and maybe take a date to a movie once per month.  I didn't take this job expecting to make a living wage."

But not today!!  Today ANY JOB should pay a living wage!! 

Karina McClain, a cashier at fast food chain Checkers in New York City, didn't show up for her shift on Thursday.

Instead, the 22 year-old joined about 100 other people outside of a Brooklyn Wendy's restaurant calling for an hourly wage increase to $15 an hour. She was holding a sign that read "Raise pay, live better."

"I have bills to pay and we don't get enough money," said McClain, who makes the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, and works 20 hours a week. Missing out on a day's pay would be hard for McClain, who can barely pay for diapers and clothes for her five-month old daughter Kamayah.

But on Thursday, McClain was able to afford missing a day at work, because organizers behind the protests compensate workers who walk off work.

McClain said union-backed groups, like Fast Food Forward and Fight for 15, were paying her about $50, or a day's wage, to be at the protest.

"If they weren't paying me, I couldn't afford to be here," she said.

The median pay for the fast food workers nationwide stands at just more than $9 an hour, or about $18,500 a year. That's roughly $4,500 lower than Census Bureau's poverty income threshold level of $23,000 for a family of four. That's why most workers can't afford to miss a day or work with no pay, Westin said.

A report released in October by the University of California, Berkeley Labor Center and the University of Illinois found that more than half of families of fast food workers receive some form of public assistance. The report estimated that this aid carries a $7 billion annual price tag for taxpayers.

Can you smell the stupidity in the air?  Can you smell the unrest that is coming??  Can you take a wild guess about WHO Karina McClain voted for? 

Maybe Karina should have stopped to ponder her future BEFORE she chose to have out-of-wedlock-unprotected sex and bring a baby into the world?  Maybe she should have pondered her life working part time at Fast Food BEFORE she dropped out of High School and BEFORE she decided to start smoking Marlboro's which now cost $8 per pack?

"Dennis...you sound so judgmental, intolerant and compassion-less."

So what does this have to do with prophecy?

People say, "Where is America in Bible prophecy when it speaks of the Last Days?"  I respond that I don't really see her anywhere to be found.  "I wonder why?", they will follow up with.

Ummm....I think we collapsed because of our own stupidity at refusing to do MATH!!  Detroit refused, California refused, Congress refused, Team Obama refused...like a bunch of spoiled kids...they ALL REFUSED to do math!!

So just pretend for a moment that Karina gets her wish and Fast Food job starts paying her $15 per hour.  How much do you think Fast Food burgers are now going to cost...will they cost more or less??  And now what will Karina do when she takes her baby and her out to Fast Food to have a burger and discovers that the burger cost $3.49 instead of $1.49?

I'm just gonna take a wild guess and say that Karina might picket Fast Food again...

A New Breed of Humans?

Did you guys see one of the top news stories today?  Scientists are saying they are going to need to re-write all the school textbooks because they just discovered another breed of humans.

Scientists have found the oldest DNA evidence yet of humans’ biological history. But instead of neatly clarifying human evolution, the finding is adding new mysteries.

In a paper in the journal Nature, scientists reported Wednesday that they had retrieved ancient human DNA from a fossil dating back about 400,000 years, shattering the previous record of 100,000 years.
      

The fossil, a thigh bone found in Spain, had previously seemed to many experts to belong to a forerunner of Neanderthals. But its DNA tells a very different story. It most closely resembles DNA from an enigmatic lineage of humans known as Denisovans. Until now, Denisovans were known only from DNA retrieved from 80,000-year-old remains in Siberia, 4,000 miles east of where the new DNA was found.

 

The mismatch between the anatomical and genetic evidence surprised the scientists, who are now rethinking human evolution over the past few hundred thousand years. It is possible, for example, that there are many extinct human populations that scientists have yet to discover. They might have interbred, swapping DNA. Scientists hope that further studies of extremely ancient human DNA will clarify the mystery.

      

“Right now, we’ve basically generated a big question mark,” said Matthias Meyer, a geneticist at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, and a co-author of the new study.

 

But the DNA did not match that of Neanderthals. Dr. Meyer then compared it to the DNA of the Denisovans, the ancient human lineage that he and his colleagues had discovered in Siberia in 2010. He was shocked to find that it was similar.

      

“Everybody had a hard time believing it at first,” Dr. Meyer said. “So we generated more and more data to nail it down.”

       

The extra research confirmed that the DNA belonged on the Denisovan branch of the human family tree.

 

Around the same time as that discovery, Russian collaborators sent the Max Planck team 80,000-year-old fossils they had found in a cave in Siberia called Denisova. When the German scientists sequenced the entire genome from the finger bone of a girl, it turned out to be neither human nor Neanderthal, but from a separate lineage, which Dr. Paabo and his colleagues named Denisovans.

      

Dr. Meyer is hopeful that he and his colleagues will be able to get more DNA from the Spanish fossil, as well as other fossils from the site, to help solve the puzzle they have now stumbled across. “It’s extremely hard to make sense of,” Dr. Meyer said. “We still are a bit lost here.”

Holy evolution!!  The scientists are lost...they have no idea how to make sense of this all!!  It had all been so easy to understand...until now!!

 

The accepted story sold to our kids since kindergarten, is that some lightning must have struck a pond filled with protein based scum.  Everything was JUST RIGHT for a single-cell of life to form...and over billions of years of mutating and survival of the fittest....finally a human being walked out of the ocean and said he was sick of being a fish!  Yes!!  I totally get it!!  Makes perfect sense!! 

 

But wait.....who made the lightning and who made the pond filled with protein scum...?

 

So now we are hypothesizing that instead of having ONE MAN walk out of the ocean, scientists are telling us there were three different men who walked out of the ocean, one was human, one was neanderthal and one was Denisovian!!

So cool!!  But now they are confused because these men started interbreeding and making hybrid humanoids!!

 

Again...so cool!!

 

Wait....if three different species of men walked out the ocean....how could they breed with each other when we KNOW for a fact that men copulating with other men NEVER leads to an accidental baby?

 

And now is when we come back to the idea that some of these men must have cross-bred (had sex with) a chimpanzee and a pig in order to form modern man!!  (see my previous post) 

So amazing what science can tell us!!  With a simple explanation like that, who could ever be so dumb as to believe the Biblical story that GOD MADE EVERYTHING!!

 

"Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils.  Of what account is he?"  Isaiah 2:22

 

"Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder; the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish."  Isaiah 29:14

 

Hmmm....I wonder if our most intelligent scientists are going to lose their intelligence as they try to solve this most puzzling riddle surrounding the Denisovians?

Nephilim Skulls Found in Mexico?

The Bible tells us in Genesis that at one point in human history fallen angels came and took women and had hybrid offspring with them called the nephilim.  These creatures were big, strong and it may explain how ancient man got all the technology required to build huge pyramids and cities on mountaintops.

So is there more evidence that these nephilim once walked the earth?   Furthermore, are these "corrupted" creatures the reason that God sent the flood to destroy all life?  Is it possible that only Noah, his three sons and their wives were the last PURE human beings on earth?  Is it possible that all humans had been tainted by the 'seed of Satan' who is always out to pervert God's creation?

So much of what we have been taught about ancient history is simply not true.  According to Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History, a team of archaeologists working close to the Mexican village of Onavas has made an amazing discovery.  They reportedly found 13 ancient human specimens that had grossly elongated skulls.  You can find original photographs of this discovery right here, but the descriptions of the photos are in Spanish.  The Mexican scientists are telling us that these skulls are approximately 1,000 years old, and that no skulls of this nature have ever been found in this region of Mexico before.  So exactly what is going on here?  Are these elongated skulls simply the product of an ancient technique known as “cradle-boarding”, or is there another explanation?  Could these actually be Nephilim skulls that prove that an ancient race of hybrids once roamed the planet?  You might want to hold on to your hat – because the truth might shock you.

This group of elongated skulls in Mexico made headlines all over the globe when it was initially discovered.  A lot of people were really freaked out because a number of these skulls definitely do not look human at first glance.  A short video report about this discovery in Spanish is posted below…

Yes, the ancient world was most definitely more of a “Lord of the Rings-type world” than most people would ever dare to imagine.

Now of course the scientists in that article are still really grasping for straws to explain what the data is telling them.  The theories that they present to the media as “facts” are really just theories that they have pulled out of their own imaginations.

But what these scientists are starting to realize is that some really strange things happened to the human genome in the ancient world, and that is what the ancient texts have been telling us all along.
Many ancient texts (including the Bible) tell us that long ago a group of fallen angels mated with human women and produced a race of hybrid creatures known as the Nephilim.

In addition to the incredible testimony contained in these ancient texts, we also have physical evidence of this race of creatures still with us today.  In a previous article entitled “Has An Ancient Giant Handprint Been Found In A Cave In Nevada?“, I discussed some examples of this evidence including a giant footprint, a photo of a giant finger and a giant handprint that has been preserved in a cave in Nevada.

But the reality of the matter is that a group of giants could actually be protesting in front of the White House right now and a lot of people still would not believe this stuff.

Why?

Because it simply does not fit in with what they have been taught all of their lives.  According to the textbooks, none of this evidence is supposed to exist.  So most people will continue to ignore what is right in front of their eyes.

But the truth is out there – you just have got to be willing to go where it takes you.

"But Dennis, that is simply too strange to believe!  Come on now...that sounds like it comes from some make-believe Hollywood movie!"

Really??  Too strange for you??  Try reading what Ezekiel saw....

Ezekiel 1

⁴ I looked, and I saw a windstorm coming out of the north—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked like glowing metal, ⁵ and in the fire was what looked like four living creatures. In appearance their form was human, ⁶ but each of them had four faces and four wings. ⁷ Their legs were straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze. ⁸ Under their wings on their four sides they had human hands. All four of them had faces and wings, ⁹ and the wings of one touched the wings of another. Each one went straight ahead; they did not turn as they moved.

¹³ The appearance of the living creatures was like burning coals of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning flashed out of it.

Hmmm....I wonder what God allowed Ezekiel to see?? 

Hmmmm.....I wonder if Satan doesn't copy a lot of what God does...in hopes many will be caught unawares by his counterfeit stuff?

Is it possible Satan has been making ships that hover in the air and look like glowing metal...and are carrying strange looking, humanoid creatures?

Friends, our Bible is a SUPERNATURAL book. 

China Sends Aircraft Carrier

A few days ago we did a post on China sending war planes to show they are serious about claiming some airspace around some uninhabited islands that Japan also claims as theirs.

Now we have China sailing their first aircraft carrier into the same vicinity.

It would appear that China wants to play a deadly game of chicken. 

I have no doubt the U.S. Air Force and Navy could probably pound on China's only carrier and her copy-cat jet fighters....but is the USA really willing to pound on China at this point in our history?

ABOARD LIAONING AIRCRAFT CARRIER, Nov. 28 -- China's first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, passed through the Taiwan Strait on Thursday morning on its way to a training mission in the South China Sea.

It took about 10 hours for the carrier and its four escort ships to get through the strait separating the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.

The Liaoning entered the Taiwan Strait on Wednesday afternoon after it left its home port in Qingdao of east China's Shandong Province on Tuesday for the South China Sea on a scientific and training mission.

It was escorted by two missile destroyers, the Shenyang and Shijiazhuang, and two missile frigates, the Yantai and Weifang.

During the voyage, the carrier has kept a high degree of vigilance against approaches from foreign warships and aircraft, according to Liaoning Captain Zhang Zheng.

This is the first time the carrier has conducted a cross-sea training voyage and passed through the Taiwan Strait since it was commissioned into the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy in September last year, according to Zhang.

It is also the fifth time this year that the vessel has been out to sea for experiments and training, the captain said, adding that all the year's operations have been conducted as scheduled.

Progress has been made regarding everything from integration of the carrier and carrier-borne aircraft to the skills of the carrier staff and aircraft pilots to the testing of equipment under complicated conditions, which has laid a firm foundation for proceeding trials, said Zhang.

The upcoming South China Sea engagement is a normal arrangement in the carrier's scheduled training, according to the PLA Navy.

The Liaoning is China's only aircraft carrier in operation. It was refitted based on an unfinished carrier of the former Soviet Union. The refitted carrier was delivered to the navy on Sept. 25, 2012.

Friends, China is a mess!!  The pollution is deadly, dead pigs by the thousands float in their rivers, they have entire cities built without a soul living in them, they don't have enough women to keep their men satisfied and they are one of the worst human-rights violators in the entire world....but that means nothing if they decide to provoke a territory/military mess in the South China Sea.

And let's imagine how the conversation might play out if China and USA start throwing punches at each other around Taiwan....

"Hey China, this is Obama...as you know we are a little cash-pinched right now with all this Great Recession and all the wars we have been going through....so anyway, do you think you could refinance that $1 Trillion of of Treasury Bonds that you own....because we need some more money to buy some more missiles to refit our aircraft carrier that is based in the South China Sea so we can continue defending Taiwan from your aggression.  So I'm asking you, kindly, to bid on those Treasury's when they come up for auction...OK?"

War Crimes in Syria

Uh-oh....this report does not look good for Bashar al-Assad, President of Syria. 

If we read between the lines it sounds like Assad and his henchmen might be executed for war crimes anyway...so now what does he have to lose?  He's gonna die either way!!  He might as well stay fighting, torturing, gassing and murdering...as if his life depends on it.

(CNN) -- A United Nations fact-finding team has found "massive evidence" that the highest levels of the Syrian government are responsible for war crimes in the nation's long-running civil war, the U.N.'s human rights chief said Monday.

Navi Pillay didn't name President Bashar al-Assad, but she said the evidence collected by the U.N. Commission of Inquiry on Syria implicates the regime's top man.

 

The panel's members have "outlined their view that the facts point to the commission of very serious crimes, war crimes, crimes against humanity," Pillay, the U.N. high commissioner for human rights, told reporters in Geneva, Switzerland. "They point to the fact that the evidence indicates responsibility at the highest level of government, including the head of state."

 

Still, Pillay declined to say whether al-Assad was named in a list of suspects that the panel produced. The list is confidential -- not to be released until the matter goes from the fact-finding stage to a formal international investigation -- and even she has not read it, she said.

 

Pillay said the evidence also shows that rebels have committed war crimes and pointed to the fact that the majority of deaths -- more than 100,000 since the civil war began in 2011 -- are from unlawful attacks with conventional weapons, not from chemical weapons, which have gotten much of the attention in recent months.

 

A joint Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons-United Nations team charged with overseeing the destruction of Syria's chemical weapons began inspecting sites in October. The U.N. Security Council resolution that authorized the mission set a deadline of mid-2014 for Syria to destroy its chemical weapons or face consequences.

 

The goal is to move the most dangerous chemicals out of the country as quickly as possible, said Sigrid Kaag, head of the joint team.

 

But the presence of chemical weapons inspectors has not stopped the influx of conventional weapons into Syria's civil war. As recently as September, U.S. officials confirmed that they sent artillery described as light weapons, some anti-tank weapons and ammunition to Syrian rebels, and Russia has long supplied arms to the Syria's government.

 

Pillay called on U.N. member states to refer the report to the International Criminal Court, a move that might be blocked by the U.N Security council, where Russia and China have so far blocked efforts that could punish the Assad regime.

As you look at the video images coming out of Syria and see the devastation that is happening in Damascus, it's hard not to wonder if this all has something to do with Isaiah 17.

 

"See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins..."

 

"In that day their (Syria's) strong cities, which they left because of the Israelites, will be like places abandoned to thickets and undergrowth.  And all will be desolation." 

 

So right now it's Syrian butchering Syrian....but verse 9 seems to to suggest that it maybe Israel who puts the final hurt on Syria?? 

 

Could it be that Assad, who soon may have NOTHING TO LOSE, decides to see if he can unite the Arab world by launching an attack on Israel?

 

Time will tell...

Apathy Like He Has NEVER Seen Before

Of course we get used to watching for wars, earthquakes, floods, famines and apostasy as the return of Christ draws closer...but how about apathy?  Do you see any of that going on?...maybe by us?...or if not us, maybe by the person sitting on your left and right in the church pew on Sunday morning?

Most people who consider themselves to be students of Bible prophecy are familiar with the signs of the times. Some of the most common signs are warfare, earthquakes, floods, immorality or any political activity related to Israel. Of course the Bible warns us that these precursors to the Tribulation hour will increase—as we get closer to the end.

Most people don’t realize that apathy is the greatest indication of the last days. You could almost call it the anti-sign. Jesus talked more about the lack of awareness than any other sign of the times. The Lord was so insistent about getting this point across, He repeated himself four times in the space of a few verses. He also included a story about the ten virgins to illustrate the point of the surprise Rapture.  “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Matthew 24:36).  “Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come” (Matthew 24:42). “Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 24:44).  “Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 25:13).  We live in a period that is both exciting and frustrating at the same time. It’s exciting because we know all the warning signs seem to say something big is about to happen. What makes it frustrating is the inability of most people to grasp our close proximity to judgment.  Apathy is a rather sinister thing because it eats away at our ability to comprehend the significance of other birth pang signs. Prophetic discernment is a crucial factor in knowing where we are on God’s timeline. Apathy is the main reason awareness has gone into a stunning free fall. We live in an age when even the most dire, warning signs fail to draw people’s attention.  Just a couple weeks ago we had horrendous typhoon in the Pacific. The storm set a number of records, and is just one of many that have occurred in recent years. As far as prophetic significances goes, I’ve never seen a disaster of this magnitude get so little attention. Years ago, the Haiyan typhoon would inspire people to write books about how it fits into prophecy.  In the past few weeks there have been several stories about the practicality of fitting people with electronic implants. I remember in the 80s and 90s any news story remotely related to the mark of the beast would trigger a wave of wild speculation by a group of people who specialized in the subject. Today not only is the chatter gone, the 666 watchers have also vanished. I think the main reason why apathy has become so widespread is a historic lack of peril. No other generation has been less removed from dangers like: financial calamity, disease, and global warfare. Even though the potential threats continue to grow, the real danger remains elusive. I think the reason for this state of tranquility is that that we are prophetically in a great calm before the storm. Once the Tribulation hour starts there will be enough judgment for everyone. The one positive aspect of apathy is that it aids the progression of prophecy. Because people are not watchful, events progress purely from the lack of opposition. I see us rapidly moving to the point where we could witness the global police state that the Word of God predicts. We keep losing our freedoms because the devil has deceived people into thinking they don’t need to worry about their liberties.  The cure of apathy is devotion, and a good way to stay alert is for every Christians to be productive in their spiritual lives. If you are busy about the Lord’s work, the moss of apathy won’t have time to grow on you. Because the Rapture is a clock-stopping event, it is critical that we realize what limited time we have here on earth.  “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness” (2 Peter 3:10-11).

Are we all busy doing the Lord's work?  Are we all yearning for that day when the Master will return and pat us on the back and say, "Well done good and faithful servant?"....or are we too busy with sports events, shopping and maintaining our stuff that we simply don't want to consider how close we are to pending judgment? 

Besides, who wants to think about or talk about judgement coming when so many of us are just having so much fun living in this awesome country in this awesome house eating all this awesome food and amusing ourselves in so many awesome ways?!?!
