Good ones!
I'd like to point out two things though. First, when it talks about their sins saying, their speech and actions are against the Lord, etc. for us it's saying the people then are just like the people are today. God says that when someone isn't saved, even their very best behavior and most loving gestures are worthless and are actually sins! They're sins because the person is doing them for the wrong reasons. They could care less about God and what He wants so they certainly aren't going to do anything in order to bring glory to God. Therefore everything they think, say and do is sinful. So although there certainly were obvious outright sins, there were also many sins that looked wonderful to other people, but God knew better because He knew their hearts.
When God said it would go well with the righteous people, the believing remnant, and what God says in Psalm 23:6, does not mean that bad things won't ever happen to those who are really saved. (That's what the Bible means when it calls someone "righteous".) The judgement that's being spoken about in these verses is the fall of Jerusalem to Babylon; although that's just a partial fulfillment. The rest will happen in the Tribulation. So what this is saying in our case is that the righteous will miss the final fulfillment as we will be taken up to Heaven in the rapture before the Tribulation. Obviously though, we will still experience bad things at times, just as we are right now. We just won't experience the full wrath of God. Jesus took that on for us. Back when Isaiah spoke this though, the righteous were still taken captive to Babylon, but God would watch over them and therefore they would arrive healthy, (many got sick and died on the way) and He would bless them while they were there.

One afternoon my daughter went to the ER for a migraine, and later my husband needed to go as he'd cut his hand badly. When we got to the ER, we found my daughter still in the waiting room. She'd been there for 4 hours already. Another man who worked with my husband was also there and said he'd been waiting for 6 hours and was there with a heart problem! Hearing that, my husband grabbed my daughter and said, let's go, I'm not going to put up with this! His co-worker joined the exodus as well.

I wanted to add to this, just to make sure everyone knows that while I respect Daymond and appreciate his articles, I do not always agree with everything he says. In fact, there's something he says in every article that really bothers me. It's this:
The reason this bothers me so much is because it's very easy for the unsaved to misunderstand what's being said. We know because we know God's Word and have the Holy Spirit within us, but they don't. Perhaps they can understand they're a sinner without further discussion of it, but honestly, many don't see themselves that way. Instead they think they're great.
The next part, Daymond is trying to cover the core doctrines that a person must believe in order to be truly saved. These also are easily misunderstood. When we read that Jesus is the sinless Son of God, we realize that what that's actually saying is that Jesus is God. Jesus was not just another human who happened to be able to live an absolutely perfect life of 0 sin. For one thing, no human being has ever been able to do that. That's why God had to come and do it Himself. Furthermore, Jesus was also completely human. He was 100% God and 100% human. We know that Jesus is part of the Trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Many of the unsaved, (or should I say "most" or even "all" don't know or understand this.
Secondly, there's often a great misunderstanding of the word "believe" itself, when used in talking about believing in Jesus. When that's talked about in the Bible, and when Jesus Himself said it, He wasn't talking about believing He was a real historical person. That's the way we think when we say we believe that George Washington was our first president. That's not what Jesus meant though. Let's look at a couple of verses about this:
“Ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”” (Mark 5:36) “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) In the original language and the language Jesus probably spoke in, here's what the word believe means:“be committed to”Trust, faith, believe to the extent of complete trust. The way I would explain it is that you have to believe in Jesus so much that you are willing to totally change your life for Him. Let me quote from one of my commentaries:
Saving Faith is a Dynamic faith. It is faith that is real, faith that has power, faith that results in a changed life. James described this true saving faith. To begin with, dynamic saving faith is based on the Word of God. We receive our spiritual rebirth through God’s Word (James 1:18). We receive the Word and this saves us (James 1:21). “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom. 10:17). James used Abraham and Rahab as illustrations of dynamic saving faith, since both of them heard and received the message of God through His Word.
Faith is only as good as its object. The man in the jungle bows before an idol of stone and trusts it to help him, but he receives no help. No matter how much faith a person may generate, if it is not directed at the right object, it will accomplish nothing. “I believe” may be the testimony of many sincere people, but the big question is, “In whom do you believe? What do you believe?” We are not saved by faith in faith; we are saved by faith in Christ as revealed in His Word.
Dynamic faith is based on God’s Word, and it involves the whole man. Dead faith touches only the intellect; demonic faith involves both the mind and the emotions; but dynamic faith involves the will. The whole person plays a part in true saving faith. The mind understands the truth; the heart desires the truth; and the will acts upon the truth. The men and women of faith named in Hebrews 11 were people of action: God spoke and they obeyed. Again, “Faith is not believing in spite of evidence; faith is obeying in spite of consequence.” True saving faith leads to action. Dynamic faith is not intellectual contemplation or emotional consternation; it leads to obedience on the part of the will. And this obedience is not an isolated event: it continues throughout the whole life. It leads to works.
Many different kinds of works are named in the New Testament. “The works of the Law” (Gal. 2:16) relate to the sinner’s attempt to please God by obeying the Law of Moses. Of course, it is impossible for a sinner to be saved through the works of the Law. “The works of the flesh” (Gal. 5:19) are done by unsaved people who live for the things of the old nature. There are also “wicked works” (Col. 1:21) and “dead works” (Heb. 9:14). Where there is dynamic faith—saving faith—you will always find good works.
James then illustrated his doctrine in the lives of two well-known Bible persons: Abraham and Rahab. You could not find two more different persons! Abraham was a Jew; Rahab was a Gentile. Abraham was a godly man, but Rahab was a sinful woman, a harlot. Abraham was the friend of God, while Rahab belonged to the enemies of God. What did they have in common? Both exercised saving faith in God.
Dead, Demonic, & Dynamic Faith, is a great article, so if you'd like to read the rest of it, here's a link to it: fresh-hope.com/thread/612/dead-demonic-dynamic-faith
Here's another good one that explains more about what sin is. fresh-hope.com/thread/1322/sin-more-10-commandments
Here's a list of the core doctrines of the gospel that a person needs to believe in order to be really saved. 1. knowing you're a sinner and need a savior, 2. knowing you need to repent & why, 3. knowing that Jesus was/is both fully human & fully God 4. knowing that Jesus died for our sins & rose again to prove that He had the power to save us from our sins; 5. knowing that Jesus, the Father & the Holy Spirit are all individuals & yet are still One God (the trinity); 6. knowing we're saved by grace through faith & not of works or anything we've done; 7. knowing that Jesus is the only way to salvation, & was born of a virgin.
Things outside this core group of doctrine aren't issues that would cause someone not to be saved if they believed it. CARM is another great site for discovering the truth about what God teaches us through His Word. He talks about the essential doctrine here: carm.org/doctrine-and-theology/what-are-the-essential-doctrines-of-christianity/

By Daymond Duck
On Jan. 23, 2023, Hal Lindsey started off his weekly article like this:
“The price of eggs…. A Mall of America security guard threatening the wearer of a ‘Jesus saves’ t-shirt…. Attacks on the U.S. power grid…. A worldwide obsession with pornography…. Another wave of nuclear threats coming out of Russia…. A universal weakening of democratic institutions…. A global reshuffling of leaders…. Threats of ‘civil war’ in Israel…. Corruption in the highest levels of government across the world…. Weaponized Artificial Intelligence…. Deep fake audio and video enabling previously unimagined levels of deception.… Global economic chaos…, and on and on.
“What do these and hundreds of other things like them have in common? They are signs of the soon coming of Jesus. Planet Earth is in the throes of the birth of a new world. It’s difficult — even excruciating — but it is also thrilling. We are entering the days foreseen by the prophets.”
Wow, just the kind of thing one would expect from the foremost prophecy teacher in our lifetime.
Hal mentioned that there are hundreds of other signs, and I will add the following to his list:
- The rebirth of Israel.
- The restoration of Jerusalem with Israel in control.
- Preparations to rebuild the Temple and resume the animal sacrifices.
- The technology to control all buying and selling.
- The technology for the whole world to see the resurrection of the Two Witnesses and the Second Coming of Jesus.
- The developing world government (New World Order; Great Reset; Build Back Better, etc.).
- The developing world religion (calling good evil and evil good; increasing rejection of Jehovah, Jesus, and the Bible; increasing promotion of abortion, LGBTQ agenda, etc.).
- The increasing frequency and intensity of natural disasters, famine, pestilences, poverty, etc.
We are the only generation to see the convergence of all the prophecies that the Bible said will be fulfilled at the end of the age.
Here are recent events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is looming.
One, concerning the persecution of Christians: on Jan. 24, 2023, it was reported that Open Doors has been monitoring the persecution of Christians since 1993 (for 30 years), and it is increasing all over the world.
According to the group, globally, more than 360 million Christians are experiencing “very high or extreme levels of persecution for their faith.”
Two, concerning persecution: on Jan. 29, 2023, Paul Craig Roberts (Institute for Political Economy) noted that political activism is normalizing sexual perversion (homosexuality, pedophilia, etc.) and making criticizing it a criminal violation of civil rights and hate speech laws.
I agree with Roberts, but I want to add my opinion on something here.
While there has always been persecution over some issues, I don’t believe society has ever had the normalization of sexual perversion on a global scale or the criminalization of speaking out against it on a global scale, but that is where the world is headed now.
The United Nations, World Health Organization, World Economic Forum, United States, and other despisers of the truth are promoting global laws that will criminalize Bible truth all over the world (2 Tim. 3:1-7).
Sexual perversion is just part of it; other things that are going to be outlawed include spreading the truth, worshipping Jesus instead of the Antichrist, some things people want to spend their money on, etc.
Society is witnessing the birth of unparalleled global tribulation- period persecution of believers that matches Bible prophecy: censorship of truth; prosecution of believers for praying silently in front of an abortion clinic, for refusing to make a wedding cake for a same-sex wedding, etc.
Persecution of people who become believers during the Tribulation Period will be terrible.
Three, concerning the WEF: on Jan. 16, 2023, highly respected writer Leo Hohman wrote, “They intend to digitally enslave the world in a total surveillance state based on a global digital I.D. (likely disguised as vaccine passports) and a global digital currency to replace cash.”
Four, concerning world government: on Jan. 24, 2023, it was reported that Canadian Member of Parliament, Dr. Leslyn Lewis, continues to speak out against Canada’s involvement in the World Economic Forum (WEF).
- In 2022, Lewis said, “The WEF threatens Canadian Democracy.”
- On Jan. 23, 2023, Lewis said, “The unelected WEF is not our government. Canadians did not sign up for the WEF’s plan to create agile rule-making in a post-pandemic world & the 4th Industrial Revolution (something that Prime Min. Trudeau did in 2020).
As I understand it, Dr. Lewis said it is wrong for Trudeau to be signing international agreements that impose global laws on Canadian citizens that they haven’t voted for and their Parliament hasn’t approved.
This is also happening in the U.S., and citizens could lose many of their rights at the World Health Organization Assembly meeting in May.
(More: Concerning that meeting: on Jan. 27, 2023, prophecy teacher Jonathan Brentner wrote, “If it (the Pandemic Treaty) is approved by member nations during their May 2023 meeting, it would give the WHO and its head absolute control over member nations in regard to what they deem as health emergencies. In other words, in the event they declare such a crisis, the WHO could prescribe a course of action for everyone. It wouldn’t matter if the president of a nation disagreed – the dictates of the WHO would become law in his or her country. Should a U.S. governor say “No!” to the WHO mandates, that also wouldn’t matter. The WHO would have the power to militarily enforce compliance with its health dictates.”)
Five, concerning the recent WEF meeting and world government: on Jan. 26, 2023, Canada Free Press posted an article by writer, commentator, and Radio Host Douglas V. Gibbs.
Gibbs has been on “Hannity” and “Fox and Friends.
Gibbs’ nickname is “Mr. Constitution,” and he said, “Unelected elitists who believe their job is to rule the world recently gathered at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, meeting to discuss the fate of all of humanity and the road we must take based on their visions in order to ‘save the world.’ Except, they don’t mean to save the world; they mean to control humanity and break the spirit of anyone who dares stand against them.”
Gibbs continued, “These tyrants drive and lobby policies in the United States through a well-placed, deeply embedded deep state, and they do the same throughout the world. The dark spirit of tyranny we fought wars (including two World Wars and a Cold War) against has now become the mainstream leadership on this planet, and they aim to make sure that this time they are not knocked off the top of the mountain.”
Here is a link to the article.
canadafreepress.com/article/world-economic-forum-davos-globalism-woke-progressivism-temper-tantrums-and-tyrants
(My opinion: The prophesied world government is shaping up, and it will be seven years of hell on earth. The only people that are not going to be impacted are those that die before then and those that are truly trusting in Jesus when the Rapture occurs.)
Six, concerning famine and hyperinflation (food shortages, extreme food, and energy prices, etc.) during the Tribulation Period: on Jan. 27, 2021, shortly after he became Pres. of the U.S., Biden signed an Executive Order that committed the U.S. to conserving at least 30% of America’s land and water by 2030.
Unless this is reversed, it will block mining, farming, and drilling for oil on 30% of America’s lands and water by 2030.
Blocking mining, farming, fishing, and drilling for oil on 30% of the world’s land and water will have a great impact on everyone’s life.
At the U.N. Biodiversity Conference that was held on Dec. 7-19, 2022, under the guise of saving “Mother Earth” from natural disasters (rising sea levels, floods, droughts, wildfires, etc.) supposedly created by man’s pollution and excessive consumption, the group agreed to a plan called the 30-by-30 (or 30 X 30) Initiative.
One of the 30-by-30 Initiative goals is to protect 30% of the world’s land, water, and marine areas (not allow 30% of these areas to be used) by 2030.
Critics say the real goal is to transform the world according to the agenda, morals, etc., of the “Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.”
Anyway, on Jan. 26, 2023, the Biden administration announced a 20-year ban on mining on 225,504 acres of land in Minnesota.
Another group of U.S. workers will be losing their jobs, and Biden has already signed an agreement to make funds available to increase mining in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (sounds like putting U.S. workers drilling for oil off the coast of Florida out of work and asking Saudi Arabia to increase production).
He seems determined to weaken America.
Seven, concerning hyperinflation and a global economic collapse: on Jan. 25, 2023, the head of the Bank of Canada warned that Canada’s economy has stalled, growth will be close to zero for the remainder of this year, and Canada’s citizens are not going to feel good.
Critics blame Prime Min. Trudeau for running up Canada’s debt with excessive spending on Covid and unnecessary liberal programs.
Payday has arrived in Canada, but most of the world is facing the same problem.
Eight, concerning the Millennium in Israel: God said, “The desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose…. For in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water” (Isa. 35:1, 7).
In recent years, Israel has built several desalination plants to draw water from the Mediterranean Sea and make it suitable for drinking.
On Jan. 30, 2030, it was reported that Israel has received very little rain this winter, but Israel’s system of desalination plants has filled the Sea of Galilee, and Israel will soon double the amount of water it sells to Jordan.
Nine, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog: on Jan. 29, 2023, Israeli drones struck an Iranian weapons production facility inside Iran.
There are contradictory reports about what Iran was producing (drones, ballistic missiles, etc.), but the next day, Russia’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement that said, “We strongly condemn any provocative actions potentially capable of provoking an uncontrolled escalation of tension in an already far from calm region. Such destructive actions may have unpredictable consequences for peace and stability in the Middle East.”
Two things stand out about this event:
- One, Israel apparently struck a target inside Iran.
- Two, some analysts called Russia’s statement a veiled threat to Israel.
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Very good ones! I used the same verses and told my neighbor about the women and children leading us and why God does that etc just the other day in our Bible study about the end times! I like the way the NASB, the NET and the NIV translate Isaiah 3:5:
NASB95 And the people will be oppressed, Each one by another, and each one by his neighbor; The youth will storm against the elder And the inferior against the honorable.
NET 89 The people will treat each other harshly; men will oppose each other; neighbors will fight. Youths will proudly defy the elderly and riffraff will challenge those who were once respected.
NIV People will oppress each other— man against man, neighbor against neighbor. The young will rise up against the old, the base against the honorable.

I'm glad you got to see it again Barbara. Plus I was glad you saw what I replied to you about it too. I'm glad you didn't give it any more aspirin as that can be very dangerous for cats.

Sorry I've been gone a lot. We've had to be at the hospital with Chris daily it seems. He had to be there by 7:30 this morning, and we will most likely (I hope) be going back soon. I sure hope and pray that he will get better soon.
Oh, here's the latest article about prophesy and the news for us:

I wanted to add to this, just to make sure everyone knows that while I respect Daymond and appreciate his articles, I do not always agree with everything he says. In fact, there's something he says in every article that really bothers me. It's this:
The reason this bothers me so much is because it's very easy for the unsaved to misunderstand what's being said. We know because we know God's Word and have the Holy Spirit within us, but they don't. Perhaps they can understand they're a sinner without further discussion of it, but honestly, many don't see themselves that way. Instead they think they're great.
The next part, Daymond is trying to cover the core doctrines that a person must believe in order to be truly saved. These also are easily misunderstood. When we read that Jesus is the sinless Son of God, we realize that what that's actually saying is that Jesus is God. Jesus was not just another human who happened to be able to live an absolutely perfect life of 0 sin. For one thing, no human being has ever been able to do that. That's why God had to come and do it Himself. Furthermore, Jesus was also completely human. He was 100% God and 100% human. We know that Jesus is part of the Trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Many of the unsaved, (or should I say "most" or even "all" don't know or understand this.
Secondly, there's often a great misunderstanding of the word "believe" itself, when used in talking about believing in Jesus. When that's talked about in the Bible, and when Jesus Himself said it, He wasn't talking about believing He was a real historical person. That's the way we think when we say we believe that George Washington was our first president. That's not what Jesus meant though. Let's look at a couple of verses about this:
“Ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”” (Mark 5:36) “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) In the original language and the language Jesus probably spoke in, here's what the word believe means:“be committed to”Trust, faith, believe to the extent of complete trust. The way I would explain it is that you have to believe in Jesus so much that you are willing to totally change your life for Him. Let me quote from one of my commentaries:
Saving Faith is a Dynamic faith. It is faith that is real, faith that has power, faith that results in a changed life. James described this true saving faith. To begin with, dynamic saving faith is based on the Word of God. We receive our spiritual rebirth through God’s Word (James 1:18). We receive the Word and this saves us (James 1:21). “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom. 10:17). James used Abraham and Rahab as illustrations of dynamic saving faith, since both of them heard and received the message of God through His Word.
Faith is only as good as its object. The man in the jungle bows before an idol of stone and trusts it to help him, but he receives no help. No matter how much faith a person may generate, if it is not directed at the right object, it will accomplish nothing. “I believe” may be the testimony of many sincere people, but the big question is, “In whom do you believe? What do you believe?” We are not saved by faith in faith; we are saved by faith in Christ as revealed in His Word.
Dynamic faith is based on God’s Word, and it involves the whole man. Dead faith touches only the intellect; demonic faith involves both the mind and the emotions; but dynamic faith involves the will. The whole person plays a part in true saving faith. The mind understands the truth; the heart desires the truth; and the will acts upon the truth. The men and women of faith named in Hebrews 11 were people of action: God spoke and they obeyed. Again, “Faith is not believing in spite of evidence; faith is obeying in spite of consequence.” True saving faith leads to action. Dynamic faith is not intellectual contemplation or emotional consternation; it leads to obedience on the part of the will. And this obedience is not an isolated event: it continues throughout the whole life. It leads to works.
Many different kinds of works are named in the New Testament. “The works of the Law” (Gal. 2:16) relate to the sinner’s attempt to please God by obeying the Law of Moses. Of course, it is impossible for a sinner to be saved through the works of the Law. “The works of the flesh” (Gal. 5:19) are done by unsaved people who live for the things of the old nature. There are also “wicked works” (Col. 1:21) and “dead works” (Heb. 9:14). Where there is dynamic faith—saving faith—you will always find good works.
James then illustrated his doctrine in the lives of two well-known Bible persons: Abraham and Rahab. You could not find two more different persons! Abraham was a Jew; Rahab was a Gentile. Abraham was a godly man, but Rahab was a sinful woman, a harlot. Abraham was the friend of God, while Rahab belonged to the enemies of God. What did they have in common? Both exercised saving faith in God.
Dead, Demonic, & Dynamic Faith, is a great article, so if you'd like to read the rest of it, here's a link to it: fresh-hope.com/thread/612/dead-demonic-dynamic-faith
Here's another good one that explains more about what sin is. fresh-hope.com/thread/1322/sin-more-10-commandments
Here's a list of the core doctrines of the gospel that a person needs to believe in order to be really saved. 1. knowing you're a sinner and need a savior, 2. knowing you need to repent & why, 3. knowing that Jesus was/is both fully human & fully God 4. knowing that Jesus died for our sins & rose again to prove that He had the power to save us from our sins; 5. knowing that Jesus, the Father & the Holy Spirit are all individuals & yet are still One God (the trinity); 6. knowing we're saved by grace through faith & not of works or anything we've done; 7. knowing that Jesus is the only way to salvation, & was born of a virgin.
Things outside this core group of doctrine aren't issues that would cause someone not to be saved if they believed it. CARM is another great site for discovering the truth about what God teaches us through His Word. He talks about the essential doctrine here: carm.org/doctrine-and-theology/what-are-the-essential-doctrines-of-christianity/

By Daymond Duck
On Jan. 17, 2023, it was reported that one of the speakers (a historian) at the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos this week said globalization (world government) is here to stay, and the notion of de-globalization is a mirage.
Another speaker (the CEO of a German tech company) said the world is merely entering into the next phase of globalization.
It is my understanding that the globalists are advancing globalism in phases or stages with a timeline that calls for the fundamental transformation of the world into a world government by 2030 or sooner.
As far as globalization being here to stay is concerned, according to the Bible, God will allow the globalists to have their godless world government for seven years, and He will destroy it at the Second Coming of Jesus.
The head of their world government (the Antichrist) and his godless assistant (the False Prophet) will be seized and cast alive into the Lake of Fire (Rev. 19:20).
Know that the Bible is His Story (History; God’s Story) written in advance.
God’s story reveals that globalization would come and how it would wind up.
Globalization is temporary, it is not here to stay, and de-globalization is not a mirage.
To the contrary, globalization is a sign that the Rapture and Second Coming are close.
The Antichrist will rise over a world government after the Rapture, and de-globalization will occur seven years later at the Second Coming of Jesus.
Globalization is a tool of Satan.
He will be cast into the Lake of Fire at some unknown time after Jesus, the King of kings and Lord of lords, reigns for 1,000 years (Rev. 20:10).
Here are more recent events that indicate the Rapture and temporary world government are getting close.
One, concerning world government: this week, Elon Musk, who has criticized the World Economic Forum’s ESG agenda in the past (the WEF’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) agenda supporting racial equity, abortion, the WOKE culture, etc.) stirred the pot a little more.
- On Jan. 17, 2023, Musk said the “S” in ESG stands for “Satanic.”
- On Jan. 18, 2023, Musk said the WEF “is increasingly becoming an unelected world government that the people never asked for and don’t want.”
- On Jan. 18, 2023, Musk asked Twitter users if they think the WEF should control the world, and about 86% said “No.”
Biblically speaking, the ESG agenda is Satanic, and I will add so is the WEF’s godless World government and population reduction goals (another thing that Musk has criticized).
(Note: Rumors are circulating that former Pres. Trump may change his mind and soon return to Twitter.)
Two, concerning the Two-State Solution (the division of Israel): on Jan. 16, 2023, Israel’s new Public Diplomacy Minister (Galit Distel Atbaryan) said she will launch a new international campaign to explain Israel’s position and debunk Palestinian claims to the Promised Land.
Atbaryan said:
- She views the Bible as Israel’s deed to the Promised Land, and especially to the region of Judea and Samaria (Amen! Gen. 17:7-8, 18-21.).
- Israel has not occupied any territory; there is no occupation (Amen!).
(My opinion: Atbaryan’s international campaign could be God’s final notice to world leaders to keep their hands off Israel because He will have the final say (Joel 3:2).
Three, concerning the economy: on Jan. 18, 2023, it was reported that BlackRock (the world’s largest asset manager) has released its 2023 Global Outlook, and it says central banks are deliberately causing recessions to try to bring inflation under control and investors should expect a downturn unlike any other.
This bears repeating: The World’s largest asset manager is predicting that the effort to bring inflation under control is going to cause a recession UNLIKE ANY OTHER (emphasis mine).
I believe the Bible teaches that there will be hyperinflation and a global economic collapse early in the Tribulation Period unlike any other (Rev. 6:5-6).
Four, concerning something that, in my opinion, is a reprobate mind: it has been reported that Minnesota Rep. Sandra Feist said not all students that menstruate are females, and she supports legislation to require charter schools and district schools to place free menstrual products in boys’ bathrooms for students in grades 4-12.
Five, concerning the coming cashless society and the tracking of all buying and selling: many prophecy teachers believe Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC’s) are a major step in that direction.
Cash will be replaced by a number in a computer, which is a digital record of a person’s income and what they buy and sell.
On Jan. 16, 2023, an article in the Wall Street Journal said:
- China, India, Nigeria, and the Bahamas are already using a digital currency.
- Sweden and Japan are getting ready to use a digital currency.
- 114 nations are exploring the use of digital currency.
The Antichrist and False Prophet will implement the Mark of the Beast and start tracking all buying and selling at the middle of the Tribulation Period, so CBDC’s could be a sign that history is approaching the end of the age.
(Note: Under Pres. Obama, there was talk of the U.S., Mexico, and Canada using a common currency called the Amero. Today they would probably use a digital currency that may or may not be called the Amero. Some readers will remember that the globalists proposed a flag; 1/3 U.S., 1/3 Mexican, and 1/3 Canadian.)
Six, concerning the Ten Kings: I believe the Bible teaches that the world will be divided into ten regions at the end of the age, that there will be a leader over each region, that the Bible calls these ten leaders the Ten Kings, and that they are a prelude to the rise of the Antichrist.
Some of my other beliefs and past statements are:
>The UN’s 3-stage plan has long been: 1) to create trading blocks or regions of nations, 2) transform them into political blocks of nations with a leader over each one, and 3) eventually merge them into a world government.
>The process of creating regions is called regionalization (Google it).
>The ten toes on the statue in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream are toes of iron plus clay (the EU plus others; a world government), not toes of iron (not just a European government).
>The EU was selected to be the first region to rise, and its structure, laws and morals are the pattern for the other nine regions to follow (to make it easier to merge the ten politicized regions into a one-world government).
>One of the other nine regions will be the North American Union (NAU; the continent of North America) that Pres. George W. Bush talked about and is now called the U.S., Mexico, Canada (USMCA) region.
>The other eight regions include Russia and some of her neighbors; China and some of her neighbors; Latin America; the Arab nations; Australia and others; Japan and perhaps others; and two more.
>The transformation of the world from sovereign nations to a world government officially went into effect on Jan. 1, 2016, when the “Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” goals went into effect. UN Sec. Gen. Ban Ki-moon hailed it as the “start of a new era” and said there is now a “new universal agenda.”
>World leaders decided they would take 14 years (2016 to 2030) to transform every nation on earth and hopefully the masses won’t rise up and oppose them, that we are now a little more than halfway through the transformation period, and we can expect the transformation to pick up pace and severity.
On Jan. 10, 2023, U.S. Pres. Biden, Mexico’s Pres. Obrador, and Canada’s Prime Minister Trudeau met for the Tenth North American Leader’s Summit (NALS).
On Jan. 20, 2023, The New American posted an article that Bill Hahn wrote for the John Birch Society, and it is loaded with information on the meeting.
>Hahn said in the days of Pres. George W. Bush, Professor Robert Pastor “led the task force for the Council on Foreign Relations on how to build what he called the North American Community or the North American Idea. He said the work was leading toward “CONTINENTAL INTEGRATION” (emphasis added).
>Hahn said in 2002 that former Mexican Pres. Vicente Fox said, “Eventually, our long-range objective is to establish with the United States, but also with Canada, our other regional partner, an ensemble of connections and institutions SIMILAR TO THOSE CREATED BY THE EUROPEAN UNION” (the pattern for the other nine regions; emphasis added).
>Concerning Biden’s summit with Obrador and Trudeau: Hahn said Goldy Hyder, CEO of the Business Council of Canada, said, “It’s time for leaders in all three countries to think more in terms of North America as a SINGLE, SELF-CONTAINED UNIT than as separate entities” (emphasis added)
>During Biden’s summit with Obrador and Trudeau, Hahn reported that Mexican Pres. Obrador said, “We address as a priority the economic and commercial INTEGRATION OF THE ENTIRE AMERICAN CONTINENT” (merging all nations in North America; emphasis added).
>During Biden’s summit, Hahn reported that Canadian Prime Min. Trudeau said, “Let’s think like people did back when they signed the original NAFTA… They … knew that an INTEGRATED CONTINENTAL ECONOMY would bring any and all opportunities that much closer, including those they couldn’t even imagine yet” (emphasis added).
>Hahn said, “The New American perfectly summed up the summit in an online article, writing that the “agreement … overrides the U.S. Constitution and advances the long-standing globalist goal of ERASING THE NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY of [the] three [North American] nations” (erasing the borders between the three nations; emphasis added).
>Hahn said, “If the three counties do merge into REGIONAL GOVERNMENT, then we are but one small step away from these regional governments being merged under a WORLD GOVERNMENT, as envisioned by the likes of Klaus Schwab, Henry Kissinger, Karl Marx, and the rest of those supporting globalism. The U.S., as the great experiment of freedom, would cease to exist, and the “progress” of American society would have come full circle, back to being serfs and slaves to tyrannical government” (emphasis added).
Here is a link to the entire article:
thenewamerican.com/the-nwo-battle-for-north-america/?mc_cid=bbb220d975&mc_eid=551904ee4c
Seven, concerning the world being divided into ten regions of nations patterned after the EU that will be ruled by Ten Kings: on Jan. 23, 2023, it was reported that this week Brazil and Argentina will announce the creation of a common currency, and they intend to invite Uruguay and Paraguay to use the same currency.
The four nations are already in a trading block of nations called Mercosur.
When the time is right, they hope to be transformed into a REGIONAL GOVERNMENT LIKE THE EU (patterned after the EU; emphasis added).
The author of The New American article, Steve Bonta, said, “Mercosur may well be the next portion of the planet to go the way of Europe, RENOUNCING NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY in favor of SOCIALIST REGIONAL GOVERNMENT (emphasis added).
It was also reported that this week the 33-nation Latin America and Caribbean States are discussing greater REGIONAL INTEGRATION (emphasis added).
Here is a link to the article:
thenewamerican.com/brazil-and-argentina-to-announce-new-common-currency/?mc_cid=5c862535d0&mc_eid=551904ee4c
Eight, concerning world government: last week, I reported that two documents will be presented to the WHO for a vote in late May “that critics say will significantly strip nations of their sovereignty.”
- The proposed International Pandemic Treaty (drafted in Dec. 2022; to be voted on at WHO Assembly meeting in late May 2023; to be reviewed and finalized at WHO meeting in May 2024).
- Recommendations from the International Health Regulations (IHR) that come from secretive discussions on Jan. 9-16, 2023.
On Jan. 20, 2023, LifeSiteNews carried an article by Frank Wright that said, “The World Health Organization is seeking powers to silence anyone who questions its narrative in [the] future. Its appalling track record in this regard is no impediment to its belief in its own mission to extinguish human rights for the greater good.”
(My opinion: Pope Francis refers to world government as the “greater good” and the “common good.” Empowering government or government agencies to override human rights – the freedom of religion, speech, the right to bear arms, etc. – will not be good for people. The late May 2023 WHO meeting could enslave the world.)
(More: On Jan. 20, 2023, Jonathan Brentner wrote, “The ‘Pandemic Treaty,’ if approved by member nations of the World Health Organization (WHO), would give the head of the WHO sovereign powers over ALL MEMBER NATIONS to declare health emergencies with restrictions and vaccinations that can be enforced with MILITARY MIGHT.”)
(Note: The Antichrist will come forth conquering, and to conquer; Rev. 6:1-2. He will use military might against three of the Ten Kings; Dan. 7:20.)
Nine, concerning world government: on Jan. 19, 2023, it was reported that Klaus Schwab has headed up the World Economic Forum (WEF) for 52 years, he is now 82 years old, and some WEF insiders are asking who they should get to succeed him.
Ten, concerning the coming world religion, on Jan. 20, 2023, it was reported that one of the speakers at this week’s WEF meeting said he was told not to use the words religion, faith, and God.
In the globalist mind, religion, faith and God are a threat to their agenda (this includes Jehovah, Jesus, the Bible, Christianity, etc.), and it will lead to the persecution of believers during the Tribulation Period.
Eleven, as Christians approach the Rapture, History (God’s Story) is looking forward to the rise and fall of globalization.
Following the Second Coming, History (God’s Story) will look back on the rise and fall of globalization.
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Thank you Cindy so so very very much. I am still in tears about the poor thing. I wonder if God, got our two cats to bring him to me, so that before he died, he felt someones love for him?
I really do not think he could survive... His eye was gone, he was wheezing ( I think he had broken ribs) one completely ear torn, tail and leg broken, etc. etc. etc.
I am having a hard time leaving him to God, but I don't think even a vet could have saved him... the eye gone by a tooth of a predator,was surely infected... he was in deep shock, shivering... but he kept looking at me...even if a homeless stray... I guess he knew I loved him and I was not scary.
I just wish I had not thought he was Clone...
I could have given him a tad more aspirin, to have helped with some of the terrible pain.... while he died. No, a vet would have put him to sleep so he wouldn't suffer anymore. I understand your feelings about having a hard time leaving it to the Lord. It's hard for us to understand why the Lord allows suffering - whether it's human or animals. What we can know for sure though, is that as much as we dislike seeing it, the Lord hates it even more. Sadly, it's because of Adam's sin that humans and animals suffer. Before his sin, no one and nothing suffered or died. So we really can't point a finger at God and say it's His fault, as much as we'd like to at times. In this world, little children get cancer, children are abused, and other children abuse people's pets, and all kinds of other abuse is done to people and animals by other people. We just have to remember the Holocaust to see how wicked humans are. But we also need to remember that God restrains evil and outright prevents a lot of it. Things would be much worse if He didn't. (and He does that for people and animals).
Does the Lord care about that cat? Of course He does! He loves everything He created! He gave us the animals to help us in this life. But like everything else, we tend to abuse His gifts. Perhaps, seeing that cat the way it was, will provoke another person to feel compassion for it, and maybe, just maybe, by opening their heart to feel that for the cat, it will allow God to begin to soften their heart so that they can finally be saved! It would be nice if people could be saved without going through something bad, but most of us have to get to the very end of ourselves before we'll seek the Lord for real. We can't understand a lot of things like this, but if we could understand, than we'd be God. God is so far above us and so beyond our understanding that it's really amazing that we can understand anything about Him. That He has gone out of His way to give us His Word so we can get to know Him better, shows how much love He has for us. Of course sending Jesus to save us shows that as well! Maybe these verses will help you:
“Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has he in anger withheld his compassion?” Selah Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years of the right hand of the Most High.” I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds. Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.” (Psalm 77:9–14)
“The LORD is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love. The LORD is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made. All you have made will praise you, O LORD; your saints will extol you.” (Psalm 145:8–10)

“For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.” (1 Peter 1:23) The Word of God is living, folks. It’s not just alive metaphorically, but it is living in reality. Every book of the Bible, all 66; every chapter, all 1,118; every verse, all 774,746; every word, all 3,500,034 are inspired. (Matthew 4:4). The phrase “incorruptible seed” is a Greek term that speaks of sperm. Any living thing has the capability to reproduce itself. The Word of God is no exception, for by it we are born again. “The words which I speak are spirit and life,” Jesus declared (John 6:63). Jesus said to Nicodemus one night. “Verily, I say unto you, you must be born again.” (see John 3:1–8). A teacher of Israel, Nicodemus should have understood the reference. Born again, wind blowing? His mind should have raced immediately to Ezekiel 37, a passage familiar to every rabbi and teacher in Israel. If Nicodemus had made the connection between this story and what Jesus was telling him that night, he would have understood that to be born again means to be made alive by the Spirit and the Word, just as the bones became alive when Ezekiel preached the Spirit and the Word. Perhaps, like me, you have known for years that when the seed of the Word and the Spirit of God penetrate our being, we “dry bones” come to life. I want you to see that the same dynamic that caused us to be born again can continually impact us in any arena where there are dry bones in our lives. “Our marriage is as dry as a bone,” you might be saying. Or, “I respect him immensely, but my dad is spiritually as dry as a bone.” Or, “My seventh-grade daughter is not walking with the Lord as closely as she could be.” I have great news for you. The Word of God has the unique ability to impact and change your teenage son or daughter, your grandchildren, your mother, your co-worker, your friend, your husband, your neighbor. How? (See Isaiah 55:10-11) God is saying, “Just as rain coming down causes growth to take place on a barren hillside, so My Word will accomplish the purpose I sent it to do.” When you’re driving in your car; when you’re having breakfast together; when you tuck your kids into bed, don’t talk to them about your ideas on dating or your philosophy on politics. Talk to them about Scripture. Share Bible verses with them over and over again. You see, the verse itself has power. It is the incorruptible seed that has the power to produce spiritual life. The power is in the Word itself. It is a seed that will not return void but will permanently impact and powerfully affect anyone who hears it. If we really believed this, folks, we would be sharing Bible verses constantly—as we drive, as we have a meal, as we go on vacation, in the office, on the ball field, in the neighborhood. There would be a steady stream not of our thoughts, but of the living Word of God. Now, we may not see its effect immediately, but, according to Isaiah 55:11, it will take root and blossom ultimately.
I challenge you today, Mom, Dad, Friend, Teenager, Grandfather, Neighbor—to take a verse—any verse—and plant it in the ear of your granddaughter. Use it in your conversation as you talk on the phone. Say it in passing to the guy at the gas station. The impact will be huge because God honors His Word even above His name.
“That may be true,” you sigh. “but you must understand. It’s not just that I am surrounded by dry bones; I myself am dry.” If you feel this way, turn to 2 Kings 13.… During an invasion in Israel, a Moabite soldier died. Midway in the process of burying him, his fellow soldiers caught sight of their enemies headed right at them. To save time, they tossed their dead buddy into a grave that was already occupied by the body of the prophet Elisha. When the corpse hit the bones of Elisha, it immediately came back to life—revived, resurrected, born again!
This story never ceases to amaze me. It tells me that if our lives have been permeated with the Word of God, even when we go through dry days or dark nights, life will come from us as the Word of God flows through us to those around us. It’s not how we’re doing or how we’re feeling that matters. Whether we feel high or dry is irrelevant. It’s the power of the Word that works.

SCRIPTURE READING:1 Peter 1:18–23 “For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God. Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart. For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.”
KEY VERSE: John 17:17 “Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.” (John 17:17)
A formidable enemy of the truth of Christ is feelings. You feel unworthy—even though God says you are made in His image (Gen. 1:26–27) and called by His name (Acts 2:21). You feel insignificant—even though everything you do can be done to the glory of God and used by Him to accomplish His sovereign purposes (Col. 3:17). You feel unloved—even though God says He cares for you as a shepherd cares for his sheep (John 10:11). You must learn sooner or later to move past your feelings and instead lean on the indisputable fact of God’s Word. The best way is to compile a list of Scriptures dealing with the troubling emotions that beset you. If you are depressed, you should take a week or so to find Scripture passages dealing with God’s joy and His comfort. When these feelings assault you, you should turn to the Scriptures and read them aloud. You should tell the Lord Jesus Christ that you choose to believe His truth rather than your emotions. Then you should praise Him for His answer. Refuse to budge. Your feelings may linger, but they eventually will crumble under the weight of God’s mighty truth.
Enter His gates

So that would have been about 25 years ago. What kind of arthritis do you have? Cold can definitely make several different kinds of arthritis hurt more, but it doesn't actually cause it.
here's some pictures from the storm: The trees you see bent over are taller than our house
This last picture is of our propane tank (you can see the writing on it where Bruce cleared the snow off of it). As you can see, a tree broke and landed on it too. (I've never seen so many trees down at one time!

I'd like to add to this article a little bit, if I may:
Jesus said that we'd have more and worse things like earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, ice storms, flooding, and other so called "natural disasters", or just plain horrible weather that causes injuries and death. We just went through a bad storm that dumped a bunch of heavy wet snow on us that broke a lot of trees, bringing them down and causing a lot of people to lose their electricity. It ended yesterday and today another one that's supposed to be worse is going to start up! When looking at our weather, I was shocked to see that this is going on all over the US:
Severe storms continue to rumble across southern US Severe storms prompted tornado watches early Wednesday in Florida one day after damaging storms ripped through Texas. Elsewhere, accumulating snow led to school closures and travel problems. More than a dozen schools closed as snowstorm takes aim at Michigan
Tornado watch issued for Florida’s Panhandle The watch says damaging wind gusts up to 70 mph and a couple of tornadoes are possible. In addition to the tornado threat, severe storms could also feature frequent lightning and flash flooding.
Severe thunderstorm threat to continue farther east on Wednesday
By Kevin Byrne, AccuWeather senior editor
Tuesday’s severe weather risk covered a number of states along the Gulf Coast region, but by Wednesday, the threat will shift closer to the Atlantic coast, and extend from northern Florida to southern Virginia. The I-95 corridor has been included in the risk area outlined by AccuWeather meteorologists. “The most significant threat from the storms will stem from powerful wind gusts that can reach hurricane force (75 mph) in some cases,” AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski stated.
Total power outages top 100,000
By Ryan Adamson, AccuWeather meteorologist
Severe weather and snow have wreaked havoc on the power grid in several states. As of 4 a.m. CST Wednesday, Arkansas tops the list with more than 80,000 customers without power according to PowerOutage.US. This is largely due to heavy, wet snow which has caused tree branches to come down and fall onto power lines. Some of those power outages extend into Missouri, where more than 30,000 are in the dark. Farther south, over 45,000 customers are still without electricity in Texas in the wake of Tuesday's tornadoes. More than 10,000 customers are being affected into Louisiana.

The Houston suburb of Deer Park has suffered significant damage as result of an afternoon tornado, but no injuries or fatalities were suffered due to the severe weather.
Damage reports continue in Houston area
Storms begin to track into Louisiana including a possible tornado in Beauregard Parish.
Strong winds reported around New Orleans. Overall, more than 36 million people were under a wind advisory, high wind watch or warning in the Southern states.

Sorry I've been AWOL, but our electricity has been out due to a blizzard that dumped a bunch of wet heavy snow on us, breaking down a bunch of trees. Our yard looks like a bomb went off! We got our electricity on now, but another similar but worse storm is due to start in a few hours and last through tomorrow, so it may go out again. Thankfully Bruce was able to get our generator working again, so if we do lose power, we'll at least have enough to keep our food cold and have some lights and heat.
Kelly, I've been meaning to ask you if you've seen the TV series called The Edge of Alaska, about the town of McCarthy? We've been enjoying watching it.

By Daymond Duck
I was recently speaking on current events related to Bible prophecy, and it occurred to me to ask the congregation if God is wrong to tell us bad things are going to happen.
Was God wrong to tell people,
- He intended to destroy the world with a flood?
- He intended to send 10 plagues in Egypt?
- He intended to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah?
- He intended to use Babylon to destroy Judah?
- He would allow the Messiah to be killed.
- He intends to send the Tribulation Period?
- He intends to destroy the world with fire?
God was not wrong.
He does not make mistakes, and He does not lie.
He told us to watch for all the bad things that we see shaping up today because He wants us to know that He has not been caught by surprise, to trust Him, to not worry, to know that He is in control, to know where all these bad things are headed, to be sure we are saved, and to reach as many of the lost as we can.
Jesus said, “fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matt. 10:28).
God is going to take care of His people, and even if some of us are killed, He will receive our soul and spirit into heaven and raise us from the dead in the Rapture.
To be honest about it, some prophecy teachers believe our generation is blessed to see end-of-the-age prophecies shaping up because it means the Rapture is close.
Here are some recent events that seem to confirm that this is true:
One, concerning world government: according to Dr. Francis Boyle (J.D., Ph.D., Professor of Law at the Univ. of Ill., a man who has argued cases before the International Court of Justice), every nation on earth could lose their national sovereignty at the World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) World Health Assembly on May 21-30 of this year.
The details (that everyone needs to know) are in an article written by Michael Nevradakis (PhD), published by The Defender, and then published by Life Site News on Jan. 16, 2023.
It is too long for me to cover in detail, but here is a link:
www.lifesitenews.com/news/who-proposals-could-strip-nations-of-their-sovereignty-create-worldwide-totalitarian-state-expert-warns/?
As I understand it, two documents will be presented to the WHO for a vote in May “that critics say will significantly strip nations of their sovereignty.”
- The proposed International Pandemic Treaty (drafted in Dec. 2022; to be voted on at WHO meeting in May 2023; to be reviewed and finalized at a WHO meeting in May 2024).
- Recommendations from the International Health Regulations (IHR) that come from secretive discussions on Jan. 9-16, 2023.
The article says, “According to author and researcher James Roguski, these two proposals would transform the WHO from an advisory organization to a global governing body whose policies would be legally binding.”
Boyle, who has read through both documents, said, “Either one or both will set up a worldwide totalitarian medical and scientific police state under the control of Tedros (Director-General of the WHO) and the WHO, which are basically a front organization for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Tony Fauci, Bill Gates, Big Pharma, the biowarfare industry and the Chinese Communist government that pays a good chunk of their bills. Either they’ll get the regulations, or they’ll get the treaty, but both are existentially dangerous. These are truly dangerous, existentially dangerous and insidious documents.”
Other things that Boyle said include the following:
- “Both the IHR regulations and the WHO treaty, as far as I can tell from reading them, are specifically designed to circumvent national, state and local government authorities when it comes to pandemics, the treatment for pandemics and also including in there, vaccines.”
- “The WHO, which is a rotten, corrupt, criminal, despicable organization, will be able to issue orders going down the pike to your primary care physician on how you should be treated in the event they proclaim a pandemic.”
- “It’s clear to me they are preparing both the regulations and the treaty for adoption by the World Health Assembly in May of 2023.”
- “If you read the WHO Treaty, at the very end, it says quite clearly that it will come into effect immediately upon signature.”
- “Assuming the World Health Assembly adopts the treaty in May, Biden can just order Fauci or whoever his representative is there to sign the treaty, and it will immediately come into effect on a provisional basis.”
According to the article, Roguski said:
- “The proposed amendments (to the IHR) would seek to remove 3 very important aspects of the existing regulations,” including “removing respect for dignity, human rights and fundamental freedoms” from the text of the IHR, changing the IHR from “non-binding” to “legally binding” and obligating nations to “assist” other nations.
- “The WHO will no longer need to consult any sovereign nation in which an event may or may not be occurring within that nation before declaring that there is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern within the borders of that nation.”
- During such real or “potential” (public health) emergencies, the amendments would empower the WHO to mandate a variety of policies globally, which would be legally binding on member nations.
Readers need to understand that God is not wrong: An Antichrist world government is coming, and it is on the horizon now.
(Note: As a prophecy teacher and writer, I am often asked if Christians will go through hard times before the Rapture. I cannot predict what anyone will go through before the Rapture – some people are going through hard times now – but it is my unwavering opinion that the Rapture will occur before the rise of the Antichrist.)
Two, concerning the Ten Kings, world religion, and world government: I believe the Bible teaches that:
- There will be ten regions in the world at the end of the age.
- There will be a leader over each region, and it calls them the Ten Kings.
- The Ten Kings will appear before the Antichrist and surrender their power to the Antichrist after he rises and forces three of them to submit to him.
- The Ten Kings and the Antichrist will be against Jehovah, Jesus, the Bible, etc.
I have long taught that one of the ten regions would be the North American Union (NAU) that Pres. George W. Bush talked about and is now called the U.S., Mexico, Canada (USMCA) region.
On Jan. 10, 2023, U.S. Pres. Biden, Mexico’s Pres. Obrador, and Canada’s Prime Minister Trudeau met for the Tenth North American Leader’s Summit (NALS).
John-Henry Westen (LifeSiteNews) said:
- Christ-centered values are the new security threat for these globalists, and they have declared a war on the one True God.’
- “They outlined joint commitments for a WOKE new North America to be imposed on its citizens.”
According to the article, Pres. Biden talked about fundamental change in the world, something Pres. Obama talked about: “The fundamental transformation of America” and something the UN has approved: The “Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” goals.
Why are the leaders of the U.S., Mexico, and Canada agreeing to establish common goals in a WOKE new North America if they are not planning on merging the three nations into a region called the USMCA?
God said Ten Kings are coming, and it does not look like He was wrong.
In a different article, it was reported that highly respected author and journalist, Leo Hohmann, said:
- The three leaders signed onto a document that looks like a prelude to a North American Union.
- It looks like the push toward a merger of the U.S., Canada and Mexico may be back on the front burner if this document is any indication.
In a video on Jan. 17, 2023, Dave Hodges said on The Commonsense Show:
- The old North American Union is not dead.
- Why do you think that Biden doesn’t care that last month 200,000 people came through Laredo and were just given papers and told to march on?
- It’s globalism.
- It’s the erasure of national borders.
- Now Biden is talking about a digital currency, executive order 14067.
- It’s not going to just be here.
- Are we going to see a revisiting of the North American Union?
- I believe we are already seeing it.
Three, concerning the Abraham Accords and a normalization agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel: in last week’s article, I wrote that on Jan. 10, 2023, Joel Rosenberg, well-known author and editor-in-chief of All Israel News and All Arab News, said he believes there is just one thing preventing a normalization agreement between the two nations: Saudi Arabia wants Pres. Biden and the U.S. to treat the Saudis better, but they don’t trust the U.S. anymore.
It is the opinion of the Saudis that the U.S. is not doing enough to help them in their struggle against Iran and its nation’s radical terrorist proxies and allies.
The next day, Rosenberg reported that the U.S. doesn’t need to broker a deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel because the Saudis want an agreement with Israel.
According to Rosenberg, Netanyahu needs to broker a deal between the Saudis and the U.S. with security guarantees in writing that the Saudis think they can trust.
It is a sad day in American history when major nations have concluded that the U.S. can no longer be trusted.
(More: On Jan. 16, 2023, it was reported that the U.S. State Dept. said it is unacceptable for Jews to pray on the Temple Mount. Judging by this and other actions of the Biden administration, Israel can no longer trust the U.S. either. Sen. Ted Cruz said Biden has a “pathological obsession with undermining Israel and is endangering the National Security of America and our allies.” If I understand the Bible, those that harm Israel at the end of the age will be harmed by God. Nations that oppose Israel will be opposed by God.)
Four, concerning the growing movement toward peace in the Middle East (know that it will be a false peace): on Jan. 11, 2023, Azerbaijan appointed its first-ever ambassador to Israel and announced that it will open an Embassy in Tel Aviv.
Five, concerning the Temple Mount: on Jan. 10, 2023, it was reported that Dr. Jonathan Schanzer (author, editor, expert on the Middle East, and more) said in a recent speech at the Washington-based Jewish Policy Center that Jordan’s relationship with Israel has deteriorated significantly in the last 10 years, and “if Jordan’s antagonism against Israel regarding the Mount becomes too great, Israel may ultimately find another ‘custodian’ for the holy site and could offer Saudi Arabia that role.”
Those that believe Psa. 83 refers to a war between Israel and her neighbors before the Battle of Gog and Magog know that Jordan is one of those nations (Vs. 6-8).
Six, concerning Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria: on Jan. 13, 2023, it was reported that the U.S. Ambassador to Israel visited the Jewish nation to demand that Israel stop building settlements in Judea and Samaria and to stop expanding its sovereignty over those settlements.
He was told that Jewish construction in Judea and Samaria will continue.
Seven, concerning wars and rumors of wars: the Jerusalem Post reported that retired U.S. Army Brig-Gen. Kevin Ryan said on Jan. 10, 2023, that he believes Russia’s war with Ukraine will end in a stalemate this year.
Ryan also said he believes that there are only two reasons why Putin would carry out his threat to use nuclear weapons:
- If it looks like the Ukrainian military will defeat Russia, and
- If it looks like the Ukrainian military is about to retake Crimea.
Ryan estimated that both sides have lost more than 100,000 forces each.
(Note: Several NATO nations are still sending weapons and money to Ukraine to prevent Russia from winning the war.)
(Note: On Jan. 16, 2023, Amir Tsarfati reported that Putin has announced that he is putting stealth, underwater, unmanned vehicles with a nuclear warhead on one of Russia’s intercontinental submarines. These vehicles carry warheads that are 3,300 times more powerful than the bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima. Tsarfati believes Putin is warning NATO, the EU, the U.S., and others about helping Ukraine. It is my opinion that God revealed that nuclear weapons will be used during the Tribulation Period, and He is not wrong; Zech. 14:12.)
Eight, concerning God causing the Jews to return to Israel and prosper at the end of the age: on Jan. 15, 2023, Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu told the Israeli cabinet:
- Israel will have a massive return of Jews from Western nations, including the U.S., in the future.
- Israel’s economy is getting stronger: it has outpaced Europe and will outpace the U.S.
Believe this: God is never wrong.
Nine, concerning famine: here is a link to a list of at least 98 food plants in the U.S. that have been destroyed, damaged, or impacted by “accidental fires,” disease, or other causes since the beginning of 2021.
www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/06/updated-list-us-based-food-manufacturing-plants-destroyed-biden-administration/
Ten, concerning famine at the end of the age: on Jan. 16, 2023, it was reported that a French biotech company called Ynsect has set up a pilot plant to determine ideal growing conditions (food, temperature, humidity, etc.) and is planning a global network of plants that will produce Beetleburgers from insect larvae (mealworms).
Ynsect’s plans include nurseries and slaughterhouses for raising and killing the worms.
Researchers say Beetleburgers will taste like real beef, and in the future, the company may be able to produce products to replace sausage and chicken nuggets.
A larger plant that can produce about 200,000 tons of insect-based foods per year will open later this year.
Jesus (God) was not wrong when He said the Great Tribulation will be unlike anything that has ever happened or ever will happen on earth, and except those days be shortened, no flesh shall be saved (Matt. 24:21-22).
Comfort one another with the message of the Rapture (I Thess. 4:18).
“Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord’s own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage each other with these words.” (1 Thessalonians 4:13–18)
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

That sounds like a good book Marlene. I haven't read that one, but have enjoyed several others by him.
I wanted to let you all know that it's about to start snowing here and it's supposed to be a heavy wet snow that is likely to knock out our electricity, it could last through tomorrow. So if you don't see me, that's why!

By Daymond Duck
About 700 years before Christ, Hezekiah built a 2,000-foot-long tunnel through solid rock to secretly carry water from the Gihon Spring in Jerusalem to the Pool of Siloam (also called the Pool of Siloah) just outside the wall around ancient Jerusalem and at the base of the Temple Mount (II Kings 20:20).
Hezekiah built the tunnel and Pool of Siloam (a water reservoir like a swimming pool that was about 53 ft long, 18 ft wide, and 19 ft deep) to ensure that Jerusalem had water if the Assyrians surrounded Jerusalem and tried to capture the city.
The pool was located on a stone path (called the Pilgrimage Road) that led to the Southern Gate of the Temple (about 70 yards).
According to Josephus, about one million Jews would visit Jerusalem three times a year (spring, summer, and fall) to celebrate Jewish Feast Days (Lev. 23).
Many Jews would stop at the Pool of Siloam to take a required ritual bath before they went to the Temple.
Scholars believe Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the Pool of Siloam when Babylon invaded Israel (about 605-586 B.C.).
Nehemiah repaired it when he rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem (Neh. 3:15), Herod the Great enlarged it and built an Arcade around it during his reign, and Titus destroyed it again when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in 70 A.D.
Before the Romans destroyed it, Jesus encountered the man born blind and healed him at the Pool of Siloam (Jn. 9:1-41).
Jesus declared that He is the Light of the World at the Pool of Siloam (Jn. 9:5).
Some (Got Questions) say Jesus was at the Pool of Siloam when he said, “if any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink” (Jn. 7:37-38).
After the Romans destroyed it, the Jews scattered, and it was not rediscovered until about 150 years ago.
Not much happened until 2004 when the water company accidentally broke a water pipe near the site.
This created an interest in developing the site, but a 14-year court battle over ownership of the site prevented any development from taking place.
The court battle has now been resolved, and on Dec. 27, 2022, the Israeli Antiquities Authority announced that work will begin in Jan. 2023 and be completed (and the site will be opened to the public) in about a year.
It is one of the most important discoveries ever, it has global significance, it is evidence of the accuracy of the Bible, it is evidence of a Jewish presence in the Promised Land (and in Jerusalem) for thousands of years, it is believed that millions of visitors will soon be going there every year, and those that visit a rebuilt Temple will need a place to take a ritual bath.
Restoring the Pool of Siloam could be a sign that a rebuilt Temple is not far behind.
Here are more things that could have global significance (could be signs of the approaching Tribulation Period).
One, concerning the division of Israel: in my article two weeks ago, I wrote that on Dec. 22, 2022, it was reported that the EU has confirmed that it is actively working with and for the PA to protect the rights of the Palestinians and to ensure that Judea and Samaria are part of a future Palestinian state.
On Jan. 4, 2023, it was reported that the powerless Jewish Sanhedrin warned the EU that their actions are in opposition to the Scriptures.
They warned the EU that the Scriptures say God gave the land of Israel to the Jews and He will punish the EU countries in the Valley of Judgment by God (the valley of Jehoshaphat at the Battle Armageddon) for dividing the Promised Land.
(More: On Jan. 4, 2023, it was reported that former member of the Israeli Knesset, rabbi Yehuda Glick, said, “We should condemn violence on the Temple Mount, and not condemn people who are visiting and people who are praying.”)
Two, concerning the entire world being against Israel during the Tribulation Period: on Jan. 5, 2023, the UN Security Council (UNSC) met to discuss and condemn Itamar Ben-Gvir’s 15-minute visit to the Temple Mt in the early morning of Jan. 3, 2023.
With all the wars, economic problems, famine, persecution of Christians, China invading Taiwan’s air space, Russia threatening to use nuclear missiles, Iran trying to build nuclear missiles, etc., going on in the world, the UNSC held a special meeting to condemn one Jewish official for going on the Temple Mount for 15 min. in the early morning when there was only a handful of people present.
For whatever it is worth, the U.S. is a powerful member of the UNSC and could have vetoed this UNSC condemnation, but the U.S. participated in it.
(More: Ben-Gvir is a conservative. He believes the Temple is the House of God on earth, and he wants all faiths to be allowed to worship on the Temple Mount. One well-known prophecy teacher believes Ben-Gvir’s visit to the Temple Mount will eventually lead to a partition and sharing of the Temple Mount. I have read several articles about Gen-Gvir’s visit, but I have not read anything about this leading to the partition and sharing of the Temple Mount. However, we know that the Temple will be rebuilt, and the Temple Mount will be shared by Jews and Gentiles (Rev. 11:1-2).
Also, it is common knowledge that some scholars believe the Temple can be rebuilt next to the Dome of the Rock and a wall or partition can be erected to separate the two. The Jews and the Temple would be on one side of the wall or partition, and the Muslims and the Dome of the Rock would be on the other side of the wall. The outer court of the Temple would have to be left out because it would go around the Dome of the Rock, the Arabs would have to go through it to get to the Dome of the Rock, and that would not work. If the outer court is left out, there will be room for the Temple and the Dome of the Rock. The Jews and Muslims could go up on the Temple Mount through different gates, and the wall would separate them, but they could both use the Temple Mount. This could be important and have prophetic and global significance. It could also be a sign that we are close to the arrival of the Two Witnesses.)
(More: The day after Israel’s Defense Minister Ben-Gvir visited the Temple Mount, a group called Return to the Mount said they hope Ben-Gvir will agree to let them carry out a sacrifice at a small altar in an open space on the Temple Mount this Passover, Apr. 5-6, 2023. Ben-Gvir has supported Return to the Mount in the past, but he must get the approval of Prime Min. Netanyahu before he authorizes an animal sacrifice on the Temple Mount this year. It will be interesting to see what Mr. Netanyahu does. Netanyahu’s heart is in God’s hands, and God’s Word will be fulfilled at the time of His choosing.)
Three, concerning the rise of the Antichrist and the coming one world religion: on Jan. 6, 2023, there was an incredible article on Koenig’s Eye View by William Koenig (former White House correspondent, author, and prophecy conference speaker) and Emily Jordan that has global significance.
Here are two important quotes from the article:
- “If the Globalists have their way, God will be removed entirely from everyday life. The people of the planet will live under forced control by elite humans who think they are God. Our great nation will be usurped by a global tyrannical power. Political freedom will be obsolete, and Americans will no longer enjoy religious freedom under the God of the Bible, who allows all people to have free will and worship Him only if they so choose.”
- “It is the Globalists who seek to conquer humankind and are themselves enemies of the United States. It is they who seek to destroy, they who are exclusionary, fascist, and sexist, and they who are committed entirely to anything and everything that makes a mockery of God and the world He has created, as outlined in the Bible.”
Here is a link to the entire article.
www.watch.org/subscribers/koenigs-eye-view/98748
Four, concerning world government (global significance): on Jan. 10, 2023, The Expose posted an article that said a secret committee in the World Health Organization called the International Health Regulations Review Committee (IHRRC) was meeting from Jan. 9-13 to finalize proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHRs).
The schedule calls:
- For the IHRRC to submit their final proposed amendments to the WHO by Jan. 15, 2023
- For the WHO to submit the proposed amendments to the 76th World Health Assembly the required 4 months before their meeting on May 21-30, 2023
- For a simple majority of the 194 members (nations) to approve the amendments which will make them global law.
Here is just a sample of the proposed amendments (in my words):
- Make WHO recommendations legally binding all over the world.
- In addition to letting the WHO regulate things that endanger public health, empower the WHO to regulate things that could potentially endanger public health.
- Empower the WHO to require medical exams, treatments, quarantines, and more.
- Create a global system (digital or paper) to track tests, vaccinations, recovery, travel, etc.
- Allow the WHO to release citizens’ personal data.
- Empower the WHO to censor misinformation and disinformation (reports and opinions that disagree with them).
Since these are amendments to already existing IHR’s, if passed, it will not be necessary to submit them to world leaders (the U.S. Pres., U.S. Senate, etc.) for approval, and they will automatically become global law at the set date.
Here is a link to The Expose article:
expose-news.com/2023/01/09/secretive-committee-to-amend-intnl-health-regs/
Five, concerning the relationship between globalists and corrupt individuals in the Roman Catholic Church: in his message on Epiphany (Jan. 6, 2023), conservative Archbishop Vigano said,
“Today, we see the simple and the leaders of distant nations recognizing the Saviour and conforming their private and public lives to Him while world leaders prefer to gather in Davos for their globalist agenda, and the prelates of the Bergoglian (Pope Francis, whose real name is Jorge Bergoglio) sect think only of hiding their scandals, propagating synodality (partnerships and agreements), and encouraging the most unmentionable vices. Both support each other and recognize each other’s legitimacy. Both see Jesus Christ as an uncomfortable obstacle to the pursuit of their plans for power and domination.”
Vigano quoted Jer. 5:26-31:
“For among my people there are wicked people who spy like lurking hunters, they set traps for men. Like a cage full of birds, so their houses are full of deceit; therefore, they become great and rich. They are fat and wicked, they go beyond the limits of evil; they do not defend justice, they do not care for the cause of the orphan, they do not do justice to the poor. Should I not punish these sins? Oracle of the Lord. Should I not take revenge on a people like this? Terrifying and horrible things take place in the land. The prophets foretell in the name of lies, and the priests rule at their behest; yet my people are pleased with this. What will you do when the end comes?”
Vigano answered his own question:
“What will you do when the end comes? the Lord asks. Will you create new emergencies, new crises, new pandemics, new wars with which to keep the people subjugated? Will you continue to exterminate innocent children, to render fathers and mothers sterile, to defraud the worker of his reward, to corrupt the young, to kill the sick and the elderly because they are considered useless for your own vile interests? Will you barricade yourselves in your fortresses, hoping to escape God’s wrath and your just chastisement? What will you do, servants of the Great Reset, when your masters have to flee into their lairs and hide in the bowels of the earth? Do you think you can sell yourself to a new owner as you have done so far? Poor, miserable, deluded ones. The terrible day of the Lord will come for everyone, and also for you: first with the particular Judgment, and then with the universal Judgment.”
Vigano is warning that a godless world government, godless world religion, and the Tribulation Period are on the horizon, and apart from Jesus, everyone on earth, great and small, will face the judgment of God.
Here is a link to Vigano’s entire message (posted on LifeSiteNews, Jan. 9, 2023):
www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/abp-vigano-everyone-will-face-gods-judgement-even-the-architects-of-the-great-reset/?
Six, concerning a normalization agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel based on a meeting between Saudis, Jews, and Americans in Nov. 2022: on Jan. 10, 2023, Joel Rosenberg, well-known author and editor-in-chief of All Israel News and All Arab News, said he believes a breakthrough is close at hand, and there is just one thing preventing a normalization agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
That one thing is better relations between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia.
The Saudis are reluctant to make peace with Israel because they see Pres. Biden as an unreliable and unpredictable ally. (Biden called Saudi Arabia a pariah, called the Saudi crown prince a murderer, withdrew some U.S. defense missiles from Saudi Arabia, refuses to sell certain weapons to the Saudis, did not respond when Iran attacked Saudi Arabia with drones and cruise missiles, and more.)
According to Rosenberg, Saudi Arabia has signaled a readiness to sign a peace agreement with Israel, and the only thing that is stopping it is in the White House, not Israel or Gaza. (The obstacle is Biden, not Netanyahu or the PA.)
Seven, concerning deceit, corruption, and treason by the Deep State in their quest to weaken America and surrender U.S. sovereignty to a world government: on Jan. 10, 2023, Dave Hodges (The Common Sense Show) reported that some Democrats are telling the Republicans they cannot investigate the Deep State.
If at least some Deep State members are not immediately held accountable for what they are doing, they will not cease to control elections, weaken America, and submit the U.S. to a world government by 2030 or sooner.
The Republicans in the House must put the U.S. first, stand strong, and expect well-financed opposition from high places.
Be sure you are Rapture Ready.
Eight, concerning corruption in the FBI: on Jan. 10, 2023, it was reported that a confidential list of everyone that will be attending the invite-only WEF meeting next week has been leaked, and FBI Director Chris Wray is on the list.
These people are planning to take over the world, establish a godless world government, cause people to own nothing, and Chris Wray would not have an invitation if they did not consider him to be one of them.
This may explain why FBI agents spied on Trump, lied to courts, arrested patriots, refused to prosecute Hillary Clinton and Hunter Biden, etc.
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

I'm glad I could be of some help to you. Whenever you feel down though, just go back and read through your thread called "Barbara's Plan". I bumped it up for you, but here's the link:fresh-hope.com/thread/3686/barbaras-plan After all it's only 28 pages long , so by the time you're done reading it, you'll never let yourself get depressed again, if only to prevent yourself from having to read it again!
Again your posts have been right on and very helpful!
That reminds me of something I read in a book last night that I thought was really good. A man asked another man, "what if you had a teenager you were worried about, who was going out with his friends, and before he left, you warned him of all kinds of things you didn't want him to do because they'd hurt him. Then he goes out with his friends and does every single one of the things you warned him not to do. Will he then blame his father for ruining his life when he has to deal with the consequences his father warned him about?" The obvious answer is "of course not, that would be foolish of him!" and yet that's exactly what people do to their heavenly father. He warns us over and over in His Word of what can happen if we disobey Him, yet we do it anyway and then blame him when our life is miserable.
More and more I've come to realize that Jesus really came to save us from ourselves!
