Putin’s Friends Warn Nuclear Strike Coming

If you want to wonder what the Black Swan might be in 2024, read on.

******************

Amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, Russian President Vladimir Putin's friend, Viktor Medvedchuk, recently predicted that a nuclear strike will "most likely" be coming.

Putin and senior Russian officials have repeatedly threatened nuclear escalation against Kyiv and its Western partners since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

The Digitalization of Money

 We are very close to the day of a cashless society.  The governments of the world will not allow a private currency, like Bitcoin, to run forever.  They are on the verge of delivering their own.

***************

“What underpins a world order is always the financial system.

We are on the brink of a dramatic change where we are about to, and I'll say this boldly, abandon the traditional system of money and accounting and introduce a new one. And the new one is what we call blockchain.

It means digital. It means having an almost perfect record of every single transaction that happens in the economy, which will give us far greater clarity over what's going on. It also raises huge dangers in terms of the balance of power between states and citizens. In my opinion, we're going to need a digital constitution of human rights if we're going to have digital money.

Most people think that digital money is crypto and private, but what I see are superpowers introducing digital currency. The Chinese were the first. The US is on the brink of moving in the same direction. The Europeans have committed to that as well.”

Muslims Will Go Insane When the Red Heifers Get Sacrificed

 Many watchers are getting convinced the red heifers are going to be sacrificed in 2024, maybe even as soon as next month!  Read the whole article to catch up on all the details.

*****************

All of a sudden, people all over the world are talking about the possibility that there could be a red heifer sacrifice in Israel in 2024.  Those that are Jewish are talking about the possibility of a red heifer sacrifice because many of them believe that it would be a giant step toward reinstituting their ancient sacrificial system for the first time in nearly 2,000 years. Christians are talking about the possibility of a red heifer sacrifice because many of them believe that it would be a giant step toward the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. And Muslims are talking about the possibility of a red heifer sacrifice because many of them believe that there is a plot to take over the Temple Mount and remove the Al-Aqsa mosque.  In fact, once a red heifer sacrifice actually takes place Muslims all over the globe are likely to go absolutely nuts.

Demon Screams at Pastor Preaching on End Times

 We have listened to pastor J.D Farag numerous times as he’s been a guest on Understanding the Times and other Last Days programming.  In this video you can hear a woman start screaming and it sounds a lot like a demon saying “every knee shall bow”.  Pastor listens to it for a while and then leaves the pulpit and confronts the demon.  You can hear him say “what is your name demon?”

These types of manifestations are happening everywhere.  They seem to be showing up in lots of liberals who scream at street preachers and pro life folks.  Maybe another sign of the nearness of Christ and Satan is screaming “time is short!!”

Israeli Airstrike in Syria Kills 40

 Israel continues to defend itself against terrorists from Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas and every other Arab/Muslim nation that hates them and would love to see them all dead.

Today we read that they struck another target in Syria.  Iran runs much of what happens in Syria and Iran uses Syria to get missiles and weapons into Lebanon where the Hezbollah terrorists are busy planning a war with Israel.

But to the world Israel is becoming more of a pariah state to the world every single day.  It's a Satanic hatred that really can only be understood by Bible readers.

Soon Israel could be at war on three fronts.  Hezbollah shooting missiles from Lebanon, Iran shooting missiles from Syria and Hamas shooting missiles from Gaza.  Israel may one day soon have no option left but to wipe these folks out with some really big bombs...just like USA did in Japan about 78 years ago.

Israeli airstrikes on Syria’s Aleppo province have killed more than 40 people, including members of Hezbollah and a large number of Syrian soldiers in an area near the militant Lebanese organisation’s weapons depots, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says.

As many as 42 people were killed in what contradictory reports described as air and drone strikes in the early hours of Friday that hit missile depots for Lebanon’s militant Hezbollah group in Aleppo’s southern suburb of Jibreen, near Aleppo’s international airport, and a nearby town that houses a military facility.

According to reports, at least 36 Syrian soldiers and six Hezbollah fighters were killed in the strikes, and dozens more people injured. There was no immediate statement from Israeli officials. Israel frequently launches strikes on Iran-linked targets in Syria but rarely acknowledges them.

“At least 36 soldiers were killed and dozens wounded,” said the group, which has an extensive network of sources in Syria. “It is worth noting that this is the highest death toll ever among regime forces in a single Israeli attack in Syrian territory.”

Hezbollah added that Israeli strikes also targeted air-defence forces sites in al-Saferah, while explosions were heard in the Kafr Joum area, in western Aleppo.

Six Hezbollah members were among those killed in the strikes, two security sources told Reuters, who had earlier put the death toll at 38. The Syrian state news agency, Sana, said civilians were among the dead and injured.

A security source told Reuters that one of the dead was a local Hezbollah field commander whose brother had been killed in an Israeli strike on southern Lebanon in November.

Syria’s defence ministry said Israeli strikes hit several areas in the south-eastern part of Aleppo province at about 1:45am (22:45 GMT on Thursday), killing a number of civilians and military personnel. It said the airstrikes coincided with drone attacks carried out from Idlib and western rural Aleppo that the ministry described as having been conducted by “terrorist organisations” against civilians in Aleppo and its surroundings.

The Israeli military said it would “not comment on reports in the foreign media”.

Israel has launched hundreds of airstrikes on targets in Syria since the civil war began there in 2011, as it seeks to cut off Hezbollah supply routes to Lebanon.

Israel and Hezbollah also have been trading fire across Lebanon’s southern border in parallel with the Gaza war. More than 270 Hezbollah fighters and 50 civilians, including medics and journalists, have been killed in Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon. About a dozen Israeli troops and half as many civilians have been killed in northern Israel.

The frequency of these strikes has increased since Israel’s war in Gaza began after the 7 October Hamas attacks, which resulted in about 1,200 deaths in Israel, mostly civilians, and the taking of about 250 hostages. About 130 captives remain in Gaza, including 34 presumed dead. Israel’s retaliatory campaign has killed at least 32,552 people in Gaza, mostly women and children, according to the Hamas-run health ministry there.

While the Iran-backed Hezbollah is Lebanese, it has sent militants into Syria to support its ally, President Bashar al-Assad, since an uprising against his rule erupted in 2011. The uprising quickly turned into a civil war, drawing in regional and global players. Hezbollah has continued to operate in the country since.

We Are Entering a New Paradigm Shift

 Below I’ve posted a video where a famous investor/economist explains why our financial system is probably not going to last too much longer.  He says we are in the process of a paradigm shift.  We’ve been told that inflation hasn’t been a problem so holding cash, that isn’t inflating away, is not a bad place to store your wealth.  But that’s going to change as the governments of the world start printing money to pay their debts.  And the more you print the more you make the currency worth less.  History shows if a government continues to do this the currency eventually becomes worthless.  Nations like India and Russia are already trading goods using their own currencies and in doing so they challenge the dominance of the US Dollar.

We know USA is going to collapse in a heap of godlessness, drugs, perversion and decadence, but we have no idea when.  As history shows us, nations start to collapse slowly…and then suddenly.

Largest Solar Storm Ever

We have blogged on The Carrington Event numerous time over the years.  It happened in 1859 before electricity was a widely used thing.  If it happened today cell phones, electricity service, electronic ignition cars and basically every appliance that requires electricity could be useless…and it could last for months. Can you imagine what America would descend into if the lights went out for a week?  How about a month or two?

***************

Last night the Earth experienced the strongest geomagnetic storm since 2017, but it was minor compared to the one triggered by the most powerful solar storm on record in 1859, known as the Carrington Event. Now, we learn the disruption to the Earth’s magnetic field during the Carrington Event was even greater than previously estimated. A combination of modern digital tracing and detailed reconstruction have mined records of the Earth’s magnetic field at the time to reveal more than was thought possible. The finding reinforces how vulnerable modern society could be to a repetition of an event like this.

On September 1, 1859, the Sun spewed electrified gas and subatomic particles amounting to the energy of 10 billion atomic bombs towards the planet, causing telegraph communications to fail, literally shocking operators, and causing systems to catch fire. Northern Lights were reported as far south as Cuba and Hawaii, allowing witnesses to read newspapers by the light of the auroras alone. 

Solar storms have occurred throughout Earth’s existence. However, our estimates of scale relied on very indirect measures like the presence of certain radio-isotopes in tree rings. In recorded history reports of enormous auroras can hint at the timing of solar storms, but are of little use in estimating size. Consequently, our data on just how big solar storms can get stretches back less than two centuries. 

As chance would have it, the Carrington Event, easily the largest storm in that time, occurred when such tracking was in its infancy.  Records made at the time have been found to hold more information about the Event than had been thought, and it’s not good news for those preparing for future impacts in a more wired world.

Had the Carrington Event occurred even a few decades later than its actual date of 1859, it would have had electricity and long railway lines to electrify, not just telegraphs. At least, however, we’d have known its size better.

93% of Palestinians Don't Believe Hamas Did Anything Wrong

 You want to know why peace between Israel and Hamas will never be possible?

Ninety-three percent of Palestinians believe that Hamas did not commit atrocities during its mass invasion of southern Israel on Oct. 7, and 72% support the attack, according to recent polling conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PCPSR).

The survey of 1,580 Palestinians in Gaza, Judea and Samaria was conducted between March 5 and 10 via in-person interviews. The margin of error was 3%.

Notably, among Palestinians who watched videos of the atrocities filmed by the perpetrators themselves, 81% still did not believe atrocities were committed.

Here;  Dangerous Delusions: Palestinian and US Muslim Views On Hamas (prophecynewswatch.com)

The delusion of Muslims in their hatred of Jews is so deep that even when shown the video TAKEN BY HAMAS of their crimes against Jews, 81% still said it never happened.

What Can We Know When it Comes to Solar Eclipse?

On April 8 a huge solar eclipse is going to cross America from SW to NE.  The path is going to cross another solar eclipse that happened in 2017 that crossed America from NW to SE.  The Bible says there will be signs in the sky and in the sun, moon and stars as the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord draws near.  Is this all interesting?  Yes!  Can we know for CERTAIN what, if anything, this “sign” could mean for America?  Nope!

Watch this short video that lays out some thoughts from Prophecy News Watch.

U.S. Treasury Debt is Starting to Makes Folks Nervous

We have been preaching about this huge elephant since before the financial crisis of 2007-2009.  And today we learn the elephant has gotten 6 TIMES LARGER than it was then!  Please understand that when the government wants to spend more money than it has, it has the Treasury sell government bonds.  Those are basically IOU’s that pay interest dependent on how long the investor is willing to carry that loan.  The reason that we have had such an incredible lifestyle these last 15 years is because we were putting everything on a credit card.  One day, probably soon, the USA will have reached its credit limit.  For whatever reason (we hope it’s the rapture) investors will lose “faith and confidence” in the US Government and will refuse to buy any additional US paper.  If you want to see chaos and mayhem break out in America just wait and see what happens when the politicians don’t have access to a credit card called Treasury Bonds, Bills and Notes.

***********************

The world’s largest, most-important financial market is growing by leaps and bounds. On Wall Street, that is making people nervous.

Annual issuance of U.S. Treasurys has exploded, nearly doubling since the pandemic began. The government sold a record $23 trillion worth in 2023. And few think the spree is going to slow soon, given the widespread expectation that government spending will continue to rise regardless of who wins November’s elections. 

Rapid growth in markets from tech stocks to mortgage bonds has ended badly in the past. Treasurys are considered the safest and easiest-to-trade securities on Wall Street, and many worry that any instability there could rapidly spread. 

The market’s growth isn’t the only thing troubling investors: Some are also concerned about new rules that are changing the way the trading works. That could help alleviate strains but also create unforeseen consequences, such as the cash shortages in 2019 and 2020 that snarled trading and boosted interest rates.  

“None of these regulations solves the mounting pile of Treasury debt,” said Steven Kelly, associate director of research at the Yale Program on Financial Stability.

When the government doesn’t take in enough from taxes to fund its spending, the Treasury Department issues bonds to fill the gap. The agency raised a net $2.4 trillion last year to finance the deficit, taking into account what it had to sell to repay holders of maturing debt.

The Treasury market has grown more than 60% to $27 trillion since the end of 2019. It is roughly sixfold larger than before the 2008-09 financial crisis.

“Running a nearly $2 trillion deficit during a peacetime economic expansion—that’s a lot of bonds for the market to absorb,” said Stephen Miran, an adjunct fellow at the conservative Manhattan Institute and a former Treasury Department senior adviser who assisted with the Covid-19 response.

The Congressional Budget Office anticipates government spending that continues to climb in the coming years, with an aging population raising the cost of programs such as Social Security and Medicare. Rising interest costs could also boost issuance.

The Rampant Mocking of the Rapture Should Tell Us Time is Running Out

What’s really sad is how much of the church is now involved in mocking the rapture.  So much confusion and false doctrine.  If you find folks in the church who believe that God is done with Israel, (replacement theology) you are also likely to find that same group mocking the rapture.  If you find folks in the church who think that “Jesus already returned to earth via the Holy Spirit”, you will find they mock the rapture.  If you find a church ordaining gay and lesbian pastors, you will find they mock the rapture.

Remember how many people must have been mocking Noah as he built a ship where a ship wasn’t needed according to worldly wisdom?  So shall it be at the coming of the Son of Man.

************************

As we await the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ (Titus 2:13), there are a myriad of indications that the hour is late and the time of our redemption is near. We can certainly see indications of the nearing end of the church age in all that Israel is experiencing. We can also note that the Ezekiel war must be coming in the not too distant future in light of developments related to that battle. Add to those, the move toward globalism, evil and good exchanging definitions, and on and on the evidence of the lateness of the hour goes.

There are also signs within the church that things are wrapping up, and, sadly, they are negative. The Bible does not say there will be a huge revival or global Great Awakening prior to the rapture. As a matter of fact, it says the opposite will be taking place.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 KJV – “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”

2 Peter 3:3-4 KJV – “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

When sound doctrine is not endured, there are consequences that will be experienced by those who will listen to teachers that scratch their itching ears with things that aren’t true. This will contribute to the scoffing that Peter says will be present in the last days. The Greek word translated as “scoffers” can also mean “mockers”, and it is the same word that would be used to describe false teachers.

To scoff or mock the teaching of the rapture of the church is to not endure sound doctrine. The rampant practice of mocking the rapture of the church should remind us that time is running out and the church age is rapidly coming to a close.

When you talk about Christ and you deny His resurrection, your whole faith is basically gone. But when you talk about Christ and you don’t deny His resurrection but you deny His coming back to take us, then what’s the point of His resurrection? You’re doubting the literal promise of His physical return to this Earth; not just to touch Earth with His feet, but to meet us in the clouds and take us to be with Him.

John 14:2-3 KJV – “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”

What makes this statement valid is that three days after His death, Jesus rose from the dead. Forty days after He rose from the dead, He ascended into heaven where He had come from and He did so in front of eyewitnesses. After He ascended into the clouds and disappeared from the eyewitnesses’ view, two angels said to the men:

Acts 1:11 KJV – “Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.”

Jesus said in John 14 that He would receive us, and Revelation 19 makes it clear that when Jesus comes “in like manner” we will be with Him. That means we have to already be there in order to come with Him at His return. There is only one way that can happen, and that is the rapture.

[The presence of] scoffers tells us the hour is late and mockers will not endure sound doctrine, which includes the rapture of the church. This should create a sense of urgency in us for the lost and perishing around us, and raise our expectancy for that “moment and twinkling of an eye” experience we are all longing for. Sadly, many are not expecting what we are told is coming.

Matthew 24:44 KJV – “Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”

These people are acting the same as the individuals in the days of Noah. Everybody knows that in the days of Noah, there were very few people who prepared themselves for something great. What is it that the rest of them did? The Bible says in Matthew 24:

Matthew 24:37-39 KJV – “But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”

They didn’t want to hear what Noah had to say. They didn’t want to listen to the warnings that God, through Noah, was speaking to the people. So, just like those scoffers, they say, “Everything will stay the same.”

Why are they doing that, do you think? To put people to sleep and steal their hope. You see, the hope of the coming of Jesus is the most important thing that a believer can hold onto today and is the number one thing Satan wants to steal from you. And he’s going to use scoffers – sometimes from within, most times from outside – to tell you, “Where is the promise of his coming?”

Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.

There is No Such Thing as a Palestinian State

 Can we feel bad for a little Arab kid sitting in Gaza looking around at the mess he’s sitting in?  Of course!  But point the blame for his misery at the sick religion of Islam and their Satanic desire to rid the world of Jews and make everyone bow to Allah.  We should be thankful for tiny little Israel willing to spend their blood and treasure to wipe out Hamas so that the world has one less Islamic terrorist group to deal with.

***************

Asking why we continue to see and read of the hatred and vitriolic rants against the nation of Israel often sounds like a “broken record.” I have surmised that we will continue to hear and see the incessant spewing of antisemitism because those expressing these views are short on reason, rational thinking, and logical, analytical deduction skills. This is not meant as an insult. This is observably true. What else can possibly explain the lack of comprehension among so many?

A simple way to address the widespread disinformation and subsequent rants of those who hate Israel would be to ask a series of questions and wait for an accurate and meaningful response.

Lacking A Historical Perspective 

For example, I would ask someone who has expressed the kind of thinking that denigrates Israel as the sole cause of the many issues facing the region this simple question: “When did the Palestinian people organize their land and establish its local governing authorities?”

Israel is always spoken of as occupying the land of the Palestinians, so when did the Palestinians organize their land and set up a government to govern it and them? The answer, of course, is never. There is no such thing as the land of the Palestinians or Palestine.

Any honest historian will state that the Palestinian “problem” was created by Arab and Muslim nations who refused to admit those Arabs and Muslims who fled Israel in 1947-48 did so at their insistence. When Arabs and Muslims left Israel, the people, including the leadership of the new nation, asked them to stay.

Today, the same problem exists because Arab and Muslim nations will not allow the Palestinians to immigrate to their countries. Those nations see the Palestinians as both a bargaining chip against Israel and a likely domestic problem for peace if allowed to immigrate. The reality is that the Arab and Muslim nations will never permit the Palestinians to enter their nation because along with them come the dangerous tentacles of Hamas and Hezbollah.

There is much to be gained by the Israel haters by continuing the erroneous global optics of Israel as the villain in the story of the Palestinians.

The so-called ethnic cleansing decried on college campuses across America is also logically a non-starter. How is Israel committing genocide against the Palestinian people when the population of the Palestinians continues to grow? If there is a genocide ongoing, it is being perpetrated by the terror groups that rule Gaza and Lebanon with an iron fist. The Palestinian people are nothing more than expendable chattel in the hands of Hamas, Hezbollah, and their masters, the Iranian mullahs.

Perhaps the most potent question one could ask of someone blinded by their hatred toward Israel is this: “Can you name one Arab, Muslim, or Palestinian leader who has stated publicly and is affirming among his group of constituents that as a part of a separate Palestinian State, Israel has a right to her land in which to live in peace and security?”

What Will Happen if Radicals Unleash Lawlessness?

 We are already seeing lawlessness break out in big cities across America. If the election this fall doesn’t go the way of the Left, how much more lawlessness and chaos could be in America’s future?

*****************

Violence and crime are already completely out of control all over the United States.  In fact, you definitely wouldn’t want to be caught in the streets when hordes of our lawless young people are running wild.  If things are this bad already, what is going to happen if the election in November does not go the way that leaders on the left want and they give the green light to millions of radicals to cause widespread chaos all over America?  I think that we got a small preview of what this could look like during the riots of 2020.  Unfortunately, since that time the open border policies of the Biden administration have allowed millions of extremely desperate people to come pouring into this country.  The stage is being set for civil unrest on a scale that we have never seen before, and it certainly isn’t going to take much to push our society over the edge.
