North Korea Says U.S. Has Crossed a "Red Line"

Remember when Obama drew a red line in Syria and warned that if chemical weapons were ever used there that the USA would come in and provide serious consequences?

As we all know, chemicals were used and Obama did nothing.  This is not a good way to draw red lines.

Today we read that North Korea is also talking about red lines and warning that the USA has already crossed one. They are now laying out even further threats and stiff talk against America.

Is the dark kingdom really a threat to USA?  Nope, not on paper.

Has God used godless kingdoms to discipline Israel during OT times?  Yep.

Could even ONE nuclear missile sneaking through our defense and exploding in America potentially knock us back into the 1800's and provide a death toll of 70-90% in less than a year?

Yep.

North Korea's top diplomat for U.S. affairs told The Associated Press Thursday that Washington "crossed the red line" and effectively declared war by putting leader Kim Jong Un on its list of sanctioned individuals, and said a vicious showdown could erupt if the U.S. and South Korea hold annual war games as planned next month.
Han Song Ryol, director-general of the U.S. affairs department at the North's Foreign Ministry, said in an interview that recent U.S. actions have put the situation on the Korean Peninsula on a war footing.
The United States and South Korea regularly conduct joint military exercises south of the Demilitarized Zone, and Pyongyang typically responds to them with tough talk and threats of retaliation.
Han said North Korea believes the nature of the maneuvers has become openly aggressive because they reportedly now include training designed to prepare troops for the invasion of the North's capital and "decapitation strikes" aimed at killing its top leadership.
Han says designating Kim himself for sanctions was the final straw.
"The Obama administration went so far to have the impudence to challenge the supreme dignity of the DPRK in order to get rid of its unfavorable position during the political and military showdown with the DPRK," Han said, using the acronym for North Korea's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
"The United States has crossed the red line in our showdown," he said. "We regard this thrice-cursed crime as a declaration of war."
Although North Korea had already been heavily sanctioned internationally for its nuclear weapons and long-range missile development programs, Washington's announcement on July 6 was the first time Kim Jong Un has been personally sanctioned.
Less than a week later, Pyongyang cut off its final official means of communications with Washington — known as the New York channel. Han said Pyongyang has made it clear that everything between the two must now be dealt with under "war law."
For now, we can file this one under "wars and rumors of war".

Pope Says "World is at War"

KRAKOW, Poland — Pope Francis declared that "the world is at war" on Wednesday, a day after two knife-wielding attackers linked with ISIS stormed a French church and slit the throat of a priest.

The pope made the comments on a flight between Rome and the Polish city of Krakow, where he was set to join hundreds of thousands of young pilgrims attending World Youth Day.

"The world is at war because it has lost peace," he told reporters. "This is war. The world has been at war for a while now ... We had the war of 1914, then the war in 1939-45, and now this one."

His comments come after a spate of ISIS-linked attacks across Europe in recent weeks — but he was clear not to describe the conflict along sectarian lines.

He said this was "not an organic war, perhaps. It's organized, but not organic. But it's war." He said the conflict was not "a religious war," adding that "all religions preach peace — it's the others who want war."

Tuesday's attack saw two assailants armed with knives storm a church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray and cut the throat of 85-year-old Father Jacques Hamel. Officials said the two attackers shouted "Allahu Akbar" before being shot dead by security forces.

Pope Francis said Hollande had called him to express his condolences. "I want to thank all of those who offered their sympathy, especially France's president, who talked to me over the phone like a brother," he said.

He also referenced ISIS' other victims — many of whom are Muslims.

"This priest, who died as he was leading churchgoers to prayer, is one [victim]," he said. "But how many Christians, how many innocent children [have died]?"

The attack came before World Youth Day, one of the biggest catholic gatherings in the world. Polish authorities introduced exceptional security measures to protect the up to 2 million young pilgrims expected to descend on Krakow.

Whenever the Pope is in the news...we pay attention.

"The world is at war because it has lost peace," said the pope.

Ummm....hey Pope?  The world never had peace!!  It's always been at war and it will always be at war until Christ returns and puts an end to it all!

However, the world may experience a brief period of peace following the revealing of the Antichrist. While people are saying "peace and safety", destruction will come upon them suddenly.

Muslim Extremist Kills Priest in France

There was another terror attack in France yesterday,  This time it involved a few Muslim men who went into a Catholic church, took a few nuns hostage and slit the throat of the priest...killing him.

Of course the words "Allah Akbar!" were screamed as they worshiped the Muslim-demon-god who clearly demands blood of the innocents from his followers.

One of the Normandy church murderers was a convicted terrorist who was meant to be living with his parents with an electronic tag on his ankle, according to security sources.

The astonishing revelation – made to the French TV news channel I-Tele – well cause further outrage in a country devastated by constant security failings.

Two attackers were shot dead by police commandos during the siege at Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray this morning, and their identities are already known to the authorities.

One, who lived close to the church, is said to have left for Syria in 2015 to try and join Islamic State, but he was arrested in Turkey.

He was jailed for terrorist offences following a short trial in France, before being released on March 2nd this year.

They took the priest, two nuns and two worshippers hostage and local media reports suggest the knifemen shouted "Allahu Akbar" as they launched the attack.

It has since emerged the church was on a 'kill list' of a suspected ISIS terrorist arrested in Paris last April for allegedly plotting "imminent attacks" in France.

France has a problem.  In the last few decades I read that over 1500 mosques have been built.  Sadly, there are very few evangelical Christians left in France to be salt and light to the growing darkness. Last year and this year there have been major, shocking attacks in France...and if guys with knives continue killing police chiefs and priests while screaming Allah Akbar...or mowing down crowds with trucks while screaming Allah Akbar....or shooting dead 100 people in France while screaming Allah Akbar....pretty soon even the liberals there are going to realize that Allah and his cousin Akbar are not really messengers of peace.

What Did You do at Summer Camp?

This month in America, thousands and thousands of kids head off to church camp.  While there they will learn camp songs, arts and crafts, swimming and other outdoor activities. Also they will most likely learn some Christian moral lessons about how not to lie, cheat, kill and also how to honor your parents, teachers, police, etc...

Meanwhile in Gaza there are thousands of kids heading to summer camp, but they have a much different experience planned.

In a propaganda video released this week by Hamas's military wing -- the Izz Al-Din Al-Qassam Brigades -- and translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), children are seen partaking in military drills and radical indoctrination against Israel while attending the "Vanguards of Liberation: Soldiers of Jerusalem" camp.

The children are trained by mujahideen -- or jihadist soldiers -- in "various skills," such as hand-to-hand combat, military drills -- many of which feature the desecration of the Israeli flag -- and weapons training. 

"We are in need of strong and powerful heroes in order to implement the words of Allah: '(The companions) are tough against the infidels and merciful among themselves,'" a masked counselor is heard saying. 

"We concentrate on motivational instruction and religious education, through lectures in which we motivate the students, to wage jihad, for the sake of Allah, and we instill love for Allah and His Prophet in the souls of our sons."

According to an unnamed camp official, the camp focuses on "providing a sound religious and ideological education, in order to build an able and unique generation of powerful servants of Allah, in an ideological, religious and military sense, a generation that will liberate Jerusalem and the rest of the land, Allah willing."

Posters of suicide bombers line the camp, to serve as an inspiration for the Gazan youth. A second unnamed camp official said the images are of those "who sacrificed their souls as martyrs in jihad for the sake of Allah, leaders who will be their role models, on the path to liberation and martyrdom...without fear, with force and steadfastness."

Today in the news there is a headline that a Saudi delegation told Israel that Israel needs to solve the Palestinian situation.

Really?  How blind, deaf and dumb does the world need to be to understand that Jews can't fix the hatred that has been seared in Arab-Muslim hearts?

Sadly, the Bible says they will get a lot worse before anything gets better.

War, rumors of war, race fighting race and nation fighting nation will continue right up unto the very end of time as humans know it.  Jesus will then come and smash the toes made of iron and clay and the entire statue representing human governments will collapse in a heap.  And then Jesus will set up his kingdom on earth and will rule and reign for 1000 years.

In the meantime, we need to keep watching for the focus of the world to be on Israel, Jerusalem and Jews....and to watch for the world PEACE to come up in those discussions.  This too is a sign of how close we are to the Antichrist showing up to sign a peace agreement, which he will break half way through, with Israel and it's enemies.

Jesus said,
36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
