Swiss Told to Arm Themselves

There is a funny picture going around social media of President Obama with the caption reading GUN SALESMAN OF THE CENTURY

Of course the more Obama talks about gun control (he's going to do it again this week), the more guns are sold.

Today we read that America isn't the only place where citizens feel compelled to arm themselves.

It would appear the people of Switzerland have been listening to their military leaders. Having recently been warned by the Swiss army chief of growing social unrest, SwissInfo reports applications for gun permits in Switzerland increased by 20% between 2014 and 2015, according to a survey conducted in 12 cantons. But while the army proposes "arm yourselves," Swiss crime prevention officialswarn against the false sense of security that guns bring.
Whereas in 2011 numerous people in Switzerland voluntarily gave up their firearms, today more and more people are purchasing guns.
Swiss army chief André Blattmann warned, "The threat of terror is rising, hybrid wars are being fought around the globe; the economic outlook is gloomy and the resulting migration flows of displaced persons and refugees have assumed unforeseen dimensions," adding that "Social unrest can not be ruled out."
He further recalled the situation around the two world wars in the last century and advised the people of Switzerland to arm themselves...
"But Dennis, guns are bad!  Only the police should have them!  If someone comes to your house to cause you harm you should call the police and they will be right over to protect you!"
Yes the police will eventually come....but most of the time they won't come until AFTER the crime has been committed.
Guns are a good idea.  It's better to have one and not need it than to need one and not have it.

Even Their Women Get Perverse

We haven't written about this in a while, but we believe the Bible gives a hint as to when a society might be at the end of itself.  It's when EVEN THE WOMEN of that society grow perverse.

Have you noticed how many dozens and hundreds of female teachers have been caught enticing young boys to have sex with them in the last handful of years?

In what crazy world does a 45 year old woman fantasize about having sex with an 11 year old boy?...ummmm....in America?

A Florida woman who pleaded guilty to soliciting an 11-year-old boy killed herself after setting an apartment fire early Sunday, police said.

Onetime Lakeland teacher’s aide Alecia Dotson, 45, admitted she tried toarrange a sex romp at a movie theater with the fifth-grader after police found over 100 sexually graphic texts between them in June, according to court documents cited by WFLA-TV.

Dotson had been facing 10 years to life in federal prison and was scheduled to be sentenced next year. She was found dead from a single gunshot wound in a unit neighboring the apartment where the fire broke out in the Tampa-area town around 1:15 a.m., according to the Lakeland Fire Department.

And another teacher in Texas:

A Texas teacher was caught having sexual relations with two underage students when one teen told his dad about the sex after learning the educator had gone on a “hike” at a secluded park with another boy, authorities say.

Haeli Wey, 28, was fired in October from Westlake High School in Austin and arrested this week on the felony charges for sex that began back in August, police said.

Wey had sex with that teen, a friend of her family, some 10 times after meeting at a student ministry program in June, court documents say. She cozied up enough with the boy that she was invited along to a family trip to Africa during the summer, the docs, obtained by the Austin American Stateman, reveal.

Here;  http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/texas-teacher-28-busted-sexual-relations-2-boys-article-1.2470825

The list goes on and on....

When Apostle Paul tells us in Romans 1 that EVEN THEIR WOMEN....we wonder if that is exactly what we are seeing happen in America today?  We have become so saturated in a sex culture that even our women have turned to perverts.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.

An Interesting Thought

This may have dawned on a lot of you guys a long time ago, but it just dawned on me recently.

Think about this and tell me what you think:

The Jews didn't understand that Messiah would come at two separate times, first as the Suffering Servant/Lamb of God and second as the Ruler/Judge/Deliverer.  Because of this failure to understand, they simply weren't ready to accept Him.

Today, I find many "Christians" who fail to understand that Jesus will return at two separate times, first for His bride (all who have the Holy Spirit indwelling them) and second as the Ruling King to sit on His throne in Jerusalem to rule and reign for 1000 years.

Now think about how many "Christians" we run into every single day who simply aren't ready because we have failed to understand His two-part return...and simply aren't ready?  Maybe because we have fallen asleep....

Matthew 25
25 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.

6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’

9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

11 “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’

12 “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’

13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

MAYBE...just like the foolish ones who had their lamps but nothing IN THEM are like today's "Christians" who sit in the pews every week, going through the motions but yet they fail to realize that they don't have the Holy Spirit IN THEM?

When the trumpet sounds and the Bride of Christ gets called into the clouds...it will be too late for the "foolish ones" to rush out to try and fill themselves with the Holy Spirit?

2 Corinthians 13:5
Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?

Pentagon Chief Says Nuclear Attack Could Happen Any Time Now

Well...this is a sobering assessment from someone who is certainly qualified to speak of such things.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Late in a life lived unnervingly near the nuclear abyss, William J. Perry is on a mission to warn of a "real and growing danger" of nuclear doom.

The 88-year-old former defense secretary is troubled by the risks of catastrophe from the very weapons he helped develop. Atop his list: a nuclear terror attack in a major U.S. city or a shooting war with Russia that, through miscalculation, turns nuclear. A terrorist attack using a nuclear bomb or improvised nuclear device could happen "any time now - next year or the year after," he said in an interview with reporters earlier this month.

Perry chooses his words with the precision of a mathematician, which he was before entering the defense world in the mid-1950s. He played a central role in developing and modernizing nuclear forces throughout the Cold War - first as a technology whiz-kid and later a three-time senior Pentagon executive. During the 1962 Cuban missile crisis Perry was secretly summoned to Washington to analyze intelligence on Soviet weapons in Cuba.

"Every day that I went to the analysis center I thought would be my last day on Earth," he writes in a newly published memoir, "My Journey at the Nuclear Brink." He says he believed then and still believes that the world avoided a nuclear holocaust as much by good luck as by good management.

"We are facing nuclear dangers today that are in fact more likely to erupt into a nuclear conflict than during the Cold War," Perry said in a recent speech.

A soft-spoken man not given to hyperbole, Perry is on a public crusade to persuade people that nothing less than the future of civilization is at stake. What worries him most is that few seem to notice.

Here;  http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_PERRYS_NUCLEAR_WARNING?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2015-12-29-10-27-57

Wow...that's interesting....WHAT WORRIES HIM MOST IS THAT FEW SEEM TO NOTICE!

Matthew 24
38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away.

There can be little doubt that that most Americans are clueless as to what is happening around them.  I just saw a story on the news a few days ago of how many people are getting injured or killed because they have their faces so buried in iPhones and iPads that they just walk on front of a train or fall into a fountain!

We are deluded, complacent and apathetic to the events transpiring around us.

Lord, forgive us...we know not what we are doing.

Matthew 16
2 He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’ 3 and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.

Stay sober!  Stay awake! Stay busy about the Master's work!  He's coming to snatch His bride from this sin-soaked world before most of the people left behind will be swept away to their destruction.

Do We Need a New Global Calendar?

The book of Daniel tells us quite a few things that humans can expect to see before the Lord returns to sit on His throne in Jerusalem.

Daniel was given a vision of the Antichrist and some of what he would do in the short time he will have on this earth before Christ returns to destroy him.

Daniel 7
25 He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.

Hmmmmm.....could it be that the Antichrist (and the world who is following him) will make a case to get a new calendar and "try to change the set times"?

If so, we may expect to see some foreshadowing of how this might play out.  The world needs to be prepared for a lot of what WILL HAPPEN after the rapture of the church...because it all needs to happen VERY fast.

Today we find an article in BBC that talks about setting up a new calendar;

If Richard Henry had his way, we wouldn’t be celebrating the New Year quite yet. The Johns Hopkins University physics and astronomy professor along with his colleague Steve Hanke, an economics professor, have come up with a calendar they believe would simplify scheduling and accountancy once and for all.

In the Hanke-Henry Permanent Calendar, every date would fall on the same day of the week every year. The pair want their calendar adopted worldwide by January 1, 2017 — the next time that New Year’s Day falls on a Sunday. Their goal is to do away with scheduling problems and financial reporting errors that result from using a calendar system, where quarters and months are different lengths and dates jump to a different day every year.

In their proposed calendar, two 30-day months are followed by one 31-day month with an extra week called Xtr added on every five or six years to account for seasonal drift.
Avoiding ‘calendar confusion’

The pair say their calendar improves upon previous efforts because it preserves the 12 month, seven-day week idea, while eliminating what they call “calendar confusion.”

Because the days don’t jump around from year to year in their version, scheduling for things like holidays, sporting events and university start dates would only need to be planned once and then never changed. Christmas, for example, would always be on a Sunday.

Calculations would also be easier, they claim. Bond, mortgage and other interest rate calculations are often based on a 30-day month, which Hanke said leads to tricky sums and errors with months that have 28 or 31 days.

“Our calendar solves that problem” because it would do away with the need for day count conventions all together, Hanke said.

Little Kids "Transitioning" Into Opposite Sex

Western society is getting SO CONFUSED with all this gay, trans-sexual, trans-gender talk that some parents are now helping their little kids change genders.  Yes...5 yr old kids are being encouraged to change genders.

Up to 80 primary school-aged children a year in the UK are now seeking help towards potentially changing their gender amid signs of classmates encouraging each other to do so, a leading charity working in the area has disclosed.

In some cases children as young as four are already in the process of “transitioning” to another sex, according to Susie Green, chair of Mermaids, a charity which provides support for families of children and teenagers with gender identity issues.

Meanwhile some schools are seeing signs of a cluster effect, with a number of pupils coming forward to seek support towards a possible change after one takes the first step, she said.

Her comments came as it emerged that a primary school in the North West of England is involved in a stand-off over the issue after refusing to accept a request from an eight-year-old born as a girl to be treated as a boy.

“We are working with them, we are trying to resolve that but [the school] are very reluctant,” said Mrs Green, who is backing the parents’ request.

She said such stand-offs are now “very common” and added that a legal challenge over the issue could not be ruled out in the near future.

Mrs Green – whose grown up daughter Jackie, was born a boy and first spoke about being in the wrong gender at the age of four – said eight is no longer considered particularly young to begin the process of changing gender.

“We have got four-year-olds, five-year-olds, six-year-olds who are transitioning as parents know more about it and are more aware if they have a child who is struggling and suffering,” she said.

“You wouldn’t necessarily do anything unless it is causing distress [but] these kids are so much happier now they have been supported to live in the gender they identify with, it is a no-brainer.

“We have parents reporting back saying ‘my kid is so much happier now, they are attending school now, they are making friends now’.

“We have got families of five-year-olds, six-year-olds, seven-year-olds – eight isn’t particularly early.”

Here;  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationnews/12070632/80-primary-school-pupils-a-year-seeking-help-to-change-gender-charity.html

"Hey Tommy, I see that you dressed up in mom's clothes today....do YOU think you would be happier as a girl?  Do you want to be like mommy?"

"Hey Janice, we see that you are playing with Tonka trucks rather than dolls today....do YOU think you would be happier as a little boy than a little girl?  Do you want to be more like daddy or more like mommy?"

Here's an idea...why don't we just name all our kids Pat, Chris or Kelly and NEVER refer to them as "he" or "she" and never tell anyone whether they are a boy or a girl...and then let them COME OUT when they reach puberty and announce to the world what sex they are?

"I'm so happy for you guys having a new baby!  Is it a boy or a girl?"

"We really don't know!  We named it Pat...and when it is old enough...it will tell you...thank you very much!"

Lord help us!  We know not what we do.

Top Stories That Point to Jesus' Return

Jan Markell does a great job of listing the top 18 stories that are currently playing out that SHOULD get us excited about Messiah's return.


1)    Israel's worsening isolation. (Zechariah 12:3) The Left in America under Barack Obama abandoned her some years ago. With the defeat of Canada's Stephen Harper, Israel was left only with some evangelical Christians spread around the world. She has no superpower backing.

2)   The "days of Noah" are back. (Matthew 24:37)  Everyone is doing what is right in their own eyes. (Judges 17:6) Lawlessness is the order of the day. Evil is glorified. The White House was adorned with the colors of the homosexual rainbow and Hillary Clinton has a campaign ad with homosexuals engaged in debauchery as she celebrates their actions.  

3)   The disillusionment with today's politician is setting the stage for a "man with a plan" who will not be a politician but who will have the answer to all the world's problems. We don't know his name. We know his title is Antichrist. He may be the only one who can stabilize the ISIS crisis being planned for a naive Western world.

4)   The rise of strong delusion. (II Thessalonians 2:10-12). Simply put, God sends a strong delusion to those who choose not to believe the gospel of Jesus Christ. Those who take delight in mocking and rejecting Him, He will condemn, confuse their thinking, and cause them to believe fables. And they do!  Islam is good and peaceful; guns are evil; climate change is more dangerous than jihadists; Israel is the bad guy and the Palestinians are the new heroes in the church today; ISIS isn't Islam; Muslim refugees are peaceful and will help the Western world. This is an "Alice-in-Wonderland" world. Christians don't fit. The Mad Hatter rules.

5)   The further decline of America. She is not in the Bible in the end-times. Russia and Iran are the primary players in the Mideast now. America's influence for good is vanishing under Barack Obama. America will blend into global government.  

6)    America is being given over to paganism. A few months ago the Hindu goddess Kali appeared on the Empire State Building in New York City. Twenty years ago this was unthinkable. It is now cool.  

7)   Israel is being prepared for the Antichrist. She is surrounded by enemies. She has Hezbollah, ISIS, Russia and Syria to the north and East and Hamas to the south in Gaza. Iran boasts daily that she will dump nukes on Israel. At some point she will cave to these threats and call on the Antichrist to make a peace treaty -- particularly in light of the loss of American support.

8)   Gog is now on the move.  If Magog is Russia, Vladimir Putin has re-built her from the days when Ronald Reagan reined her in. Russia is advancing in many places.  All the Gog-Magog nations are aligning and are in the news: Iran, Russia, Turkey, Libya, and more. Prominent Bible-players are moving around as though they were on a chess board.
See Ezekiel 38-39.

9)    Israel has been bombing the suburbs of Damascus taking out concealed weapons. The Bible foretells a time when Damascus will become a ruinous heap. (Isaiah 35:1)

10)   Christians are mocked as never before and Jews are fleeing to Israel at a pace not seen since post WW2. (Matthew 10:22) Only Islam is glorified, honored, and protected. In the Iraq/Syria region, a Christian is slaughtered every 5 minutes, yet few show any concern. Christianity is being erased from the region of its birth.  All of this intensified in 2015.  

11)  The technology giants want to suppress the truth and marginalize Christians.  From YouTube, to Google, to Facebook, to Twitter, and more, the gospel message is censored and evil is glorified. They are preparing the way for "Mark of the Beast" technology. This was on overdrive in 2015. This ministry came under the gun and was censored more than once. Stories reveal that Windows 10 actually spies on emails, credit cards, and more.

12)   There was a cry for a global religion from Pope Francis to the Parliament of World Religions in Utah in late 2015. If the world is ever to be one, religions also must be united.  Pope Francis revealed himself to be an apocalyptic figure in 2015. We cannot "pin the tail of the False Prophet" on him quite yet, but even conservative Catholics are troubled by this Jesuit Pope. In fact, this Pope represents Marxism, environmentalism, the new world order, global government, sustainable development, the Jesuit agenda, unity of faiths, a global constitution, a global court, and a departure from Catholic traditions.  He is surely a harbinger of a global religion.

13)   Globalism went on overdrive thanks to Barack Obama, the United Nations, Pope Francis, and a consortium of worldwide Leftists.  John Lennon, who "imagined" all of this decades ago, would be proud!   

14)   The push to make cash illegal intensified in 2015.The move to a cashless society won't happen overnight.  Instead, it is being implemented very slowly and systematically in a series of incremental steps.  All over the planet, governments are starting to place restrictions on the use of cash for security reasons.  

15)   Israel's Temple Mount has been a focal point for turmoil this year.  With stage-setting for fulfillment of Bible prophecy during this Church Age winding up, it should be of no surprise that there has been tension on Mount Moriah. That may be the most contested 35 acres on the planet.

16)   This was the year Bible prophecy was mocked and attacked more than ever! Believers in our "blessed hope" were called "End-time Eddies and Esthers." While this has always existed, now more and more prominent teachers are telling us not to waste our time on doom and gloom.  

17)    Liberal, Godless Europe imploded. Leaders like Germany's Angela Merkel lost their minds, put their people at huge risk as terrorists took advantage of the "refugee" situation, and have made Europe a time bomb. The Antichrist will take advantage of this as well.

18)   This was the year evangelicals began accepting the gay agenda and some asserted that Allah and Jehovah are the same. The voices from the religious Left encouraged this.  The great end-time falling away has much of the church going over a cliff with results that cannot be rectified.  Finding a solid church became a believer's biggest challenge in 2015.

Does all this news get you excited?

"Well Dennis, I certainly want Jesus to come back....I just don't really want him to come now."

Really?

I'm going to guess that lots of our brothers and sisters in Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Iran and dozens of other places suffering persecution are lifting up their heads every day and saying, "Come Lord Jesus! And please come quickly!"

Are we really so comfortable here in America that we don't want Him to come...yet?


ISIS Threatens Israel

The Bible tells us that in the Last Days Jews will be back in their land.  They are.

It also says they will grow increasingly isolated by the rest of the world.  They are.

It warns that Jerusalem will be in the news every day.  It is.

It tell us that Israel will accept the Antichrist as peace diplomat.  They are being prepared.

It tells us that Israel will be surrounded by enemies that seek to destroy the nation and kill the Jews. That's exactly what is happening.

Then Jesus tells his followers that we are supposed to WATCH the events transpiring on earth and tells us that those who ARE watching for His return will get a special blessing.

Luke 12:37
It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them.

It should be no surprise to any of my readers that if ISIS isn't defeated or slowed down, they will one day turn their eyes upon Israel and bring their demonic, Islamic battle plans to the nation of Israel.

Islamic State (ISIS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has directly threatened Israel in a new audio message, saying the attacks was planning to attack the Jewish State.

In the 24-minute audio released by ISIS on Saturday, al-Baghdadi lashes out at his enemies threatening action against them, and says that his self-styled “caliphate” is doing well despite an unprecedented alliance against it, and criticizing the recently announced Saudi-led Islamic military coalition against terrorism.

He threatened Israel by saying, “we haven’t forgotten you” and “we are getting closer to you” every day.

“God caused the Jews of the world to gather in Israel, and the war against them has become easy. It is the obligation of every Muslim to carry out Jihad,” he declared.

“Jews, you will not enjoy in Palestine. God has gathered you in Palestine so that the Mujahadeen [holy warriors] can reach you soon and you will hide by the rock and the tree. Palestine will be your graveyard,” he said.

Al-Baghdadi said airstrikes by the international coalition only increase his group’s determination and resolve. The message was al-Baghdadi’s first since May, and comes amid battlefield setbacks that ISIS has recently faced in Syria and Iraq.

“It is unprecedented in the history of our Ummah (Islamic nation) that all the world came against it in one battle, as it is happening today. It is the battle of all the disbelievers against all the Muslims,” al-Baghdadi said.

He said the US-led alliance does “not scare us… nor do they scatter our resolve because we are the victors in any event.”

Al-Baghdadi also taunted the United States for not putting boots on the ground. “They do not dare to come, because their hearts are full of fear from the mujahideen,” he said.

“America and its allies dream of destroying the caliphate through their proxies and henchmen, and whenever an alliance of theirs fails or a tail is cut, they hasten to establish another, until they recently declared the Salouli (Saudi) alliance that was falsely called Islamic,” al-Baghdadi added.

Here;  http://worldisraelnews.com/isis-chief-al-baghdadi-warns-of-imminent-attacks-against-israel/

Jesus tells us that when the events start to happen that point to His soon return that everything will go quickly....like a snowball rolling down a hill, or like a flash flood.  If and when ISIS starts shooting missiles into Israel, the snowball may pick up substantial speed.

Sweden Heads Towards a Cashless Society

The Bible tells us that in the Last Days anybody who wants to buy or sell anything will need to be part of the Antichrist's system.  Clearly this hints at a time when only electronic transactions will be accepted.

So as we look around at events in the world...this cashless system should start to be foreshadowed.

In Sweden, a Cash-Free Future Nears

STOCKHOLM — Parishioners text tithes to their churches. Homeless street vendors carry mobile credit-card readers. Even the Abba Museum, despite being a shrine to the 1970s pop group that wrote “Money, Money, Money,” considers cash so last-century that it does not accept bills and coins.

Few places are tilting toward a cashless future as quickly as Sweden, which has become hooked on the convenience of paying by app and plastic.

This tech-forward country, home to the music streaming service Spotify and the maker of the Candy Crush mobile games, has been lured by the innovations that make digital payments easier. It is also a practical matter, as many of the country’s banks no longer accept or dispense cash.

At the Abba Museum, “we don’t want to be behind the times by taking cash while cash is dying out,” said Bjorn Ulvaeus, a former Abba member who has leveraged the band’s legacy into a sprawling business empire, including the museum.

Not everyone is cheering. Sweden’s embrace of electronic payments has alarmed consumer organizations and critics who warn of a rising threat to privacy and increased vulnerability to sophisticated Internet crimes. Last year, the number of electronic fraud cases surged to 140,000, more than double the amount a decade ago, according to Sweden’s Ministry of Justice.

Here;  http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/27/business/international/in-sweden-a-cash-free-future-nears.html?_r=1

Wow!  The New York Times reports that cash could soon be a thing of the past!

Remember friends, we don't believe that the Antichrist will have to FORCE billions of people to accept his system....they will already be prepared for it!

Headlines like this one should help us understand WHERE we are on God's prophetic calendar.

As Dr. David Jeremiah says, great events by God always cast their shadows backward....meaning that we are currently living in the shadows of things that WILL HAPPEN during the Great Tribulation.

John 16:33 
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

U.S. Doomsday Plan

Over the years we have blogged numerous times on what would happen to America if our electricity went out.  Suffice it to say, it would be a game changer.

The US is at an ever growing risk of a cyber attacks, with energy infrastructure likely to be hackers' prime target.

This was the stark warning made by General Keith Alexander, the retired general and former chief of the National Security Agency, earlier this year.

Now, the Pentagon says it has a plan to do something about the threat.

Its research division, Darpa, has launched a new program to target security threats that have the potential to wipe out all of America's power systems. 

Initially, however, it will focus on infrastructure that is vital to the Department of Defense's missions.
Dubbed Rapid Attack Detection, Isolation and Characterization (RADICS), its goal is to develop automated systems to deal with a loss of power.

They say these systems should help utilities engineers restore power within seven days of an attack.

Finally, the RADICS will research systems that can localise and characterise malicious software.

'The greatest risk is a catastrophic attack on the energy infrastructure. We are not prepared for that,' General Keith Alexander said earlier this year.  

He envisioned a worst case-scenario where hackers targeted oil refineries, power stations, and the electric grid. The payments nexus of the major banks could also be paralysed he warned. 

Here;  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3366563/The-DOOMSDAY-plan-Military-bosses-outline-survival-America-s-power-systems-wiped-cyber-attacks.html

These articles shouldn't make us fearful as Jesus told us not to be fearful.  But they should wake us up to the reality that life, as we know it, could be turned upside down in an instant.  God will sustain this nation as long as it serves HIS purposes.  When He is done with America...then our time will be up.

Our faith should be in God and God alone....not governments or systems made by man...which ALWAYS fail.

Psalm 33:12
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.

Guns Aren't the Problem

I saw this sign and said to myself, "Isn't that the truth?"

The sign said;

THE PROBLEM IS NOT GUNS!
It is hearts without God, homes without discipline, schools without prayer and courts without justice.

Of course I would clarify a few things....like schools without prayer to the God of the Bible and courts who hand out the death penalty and then take 40 years to put the convict to death.



Franklin Graham Leaves GOP

Franklin Graham would most likely get along with most of my readers.  He believes The Lord's return is close, he is a big supporter of Israel and has been speaking out about Christian persecution while being very clear that Muslims DO NOT worship the same god as Christians.

So check out what Franklin has been saying about the GOP (Republicans)

The Rev. Franklin Graham quitting the Republican Party poses a significant blow to the GOP’s 2016 White House aspirations, especially if other evangelical pastors follow suit and their millions-plus congregations stay away from the polls.

Graham suggested earlier this week that the last straw was congressional Republicans funding Planned Parenthood in the recently passed, $1.8 trillion tax-and-spending package, despite revelations about the group harvesting fetal tissue.

However, he made clear Wednesday night that the funding was only part of the reason he left the GOP to become an independent.

"It's not just that,” Graham said on Fox News’ “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren.” “It's the way the bill was passed. It came down so quickly. And it didn't seem like anybody tried to fight it. It was just, 'Let's get home for Christmas.' "

Graham, the son of evangelical leader Billy Graham, also expressed disappointment with GOP and Democratic leaders but insisted he’s not trying to lead a GOP exodus.

“I'm not here to hurt the Republican Party,” he said, adding that the GOP appears to have “some good candidates” in the 2016 White House race.

Earlier in the day, the Rev. Wilfredo De Jesus, head pastor for the New Life Covenant Church, in Chicago, expressed similar concerns.

“People already know how evangelicals feel about the sanctity of life,” he told FoxNews.com. “That’s a continual fight. But the government spending also speaks to us. That was the disappointment and frustration you heard in brother Graham’s tone.”

De Jesus, popularly known as Pastor Choco, said only time will tell whether other evangelical leaders will follow Graham and potentially take voters with them.

“Many evangelicals are still vetting,” he said. “It’s too early. … But hope is in the kingdom of God, not in the political system.”

Amen to that!!  Our hope is in the Kingdom of God!! They Kingdom Come!!

I have always said that the Republicans and Democrats are both equally guilty of leading America down the path towards implosion.  But when given a choice, I have always voted for the LEAST WORST candidates that MOST LINE UP with my world view....and that means I have always voted the Republican ticket.

But at what point do we get to the place where we can't vote for either party?  And then what??

Clearly, if the Evangelical voters decide to stay away from the polls next year....it would just about guarantee the Democrats would win the day.

Take solace in the fact that God already knows who the next President of the USA is....and we will most likely get the exact leaders that we deserve.

What Muslims Really Believe

Obama comes on the TV and tells us that "99.9% of Muslims are peace loving."  Really?

No.  It's a bold faced lie.

All my readers need to take a few minutes and watch this video MADE BY A MUSLIM that plainly shows the FACTS about what the world's Muslims really believe.

Listening to President Obama and Hillary Clinton, one would think that Islamic extremists represent only a minority of Muslims, but the facts tell a different story.

Hillary Clinton will tell you that Muslims are peaceful people. President Obama will tell you that the majority of Muslims reject terror and desire peace.

Let’s be very clear that there are many Muslims who do seek peace, and who reject terror. We cannot generalize.

As for violent, extremist Islam? The numbers are going to shock you, because the truth is that Islam today does have a problem.

Learn what Muslims actually believe – based on scientific polls. The results are shocking.

If you guys are all on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or whatever else you use for social media...please consider posting this video in hopes that as many people will watch it as possible.  Our leaders are all lying to us.  It will not be possible to defeat and enemy that you can't even acknowledge their name.

Just imagine if the liberals had coined the term "Naziphobic" when the previous generation was trying to understand what the enemy, the Nazis, were up to?

"But Dennis, it's just a very few members of the Nazi party that are bad.  We can't really justify killing or capturing all the Nazis!  That would be racist!"

Watch the video please.....
