Disasters, Deep State, Depravity, & Doctrines of Devils

Disasters: Rescuers in Indonesia are trying to reach people calling for help from collapsed buildings after a 7.5 earthquake followed by a 20-foot tsunami left over 800 dead with the death toll expected to rise, possibly into the thousands. Over 150 aftershocks have followed the quake and tsunami. Thousands of homes, hotels, shopping malls and several mosques have collapsed. May those in this 90% Muslim nation turn to the only One who can save their eternal souls.

People in the Carolinas are still suffering aftereffects of Florence which made landfall in North Carolina as a category 1, killed 48 people and caused extensive damage. Florence became the wettest tropical cyclone on record in both North and South Carolina, dumping about 3 feet of rain. Now storm-battered North Carolinians are facing a new plague — millions of hungry mosquitoes, with some three times the normal size. “It’s like “a bad science fiction movie,” one resident said.

Hurricane Rosa has already brought heavy rain and flooding to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. It’s expected to weaken as it moves into the southwest US; but with all the heavy, dry soil from the severe, extreme and exceptional drought, the rain will just run off, creating flooding and mudslide concerns.

Typhoon Trami headed toward Japan’s mainland on Sept 30 after injuring dozens on southern islands.  Weather officials warned that fierce winds and torrential rain could trigger landslides and floods.

Tropical Storm Kirk brought heavy rain to the Windward Islands before weakening to a tropical depression.

In Canada, 6 tornadoes hit the Ottawa-Gatineau region on September 21, damaging or destroying hundreds of homes, knocking out power and sending people to the hospital.  A 46-year-old man was killed by a falling tree. The mayor of Ottawa said parts of the city looked like a war zone.

Extreme weather: Heavy snow brought Canada’s harvest to a standstill in September. Parts of Alberta recorded their snowiest September ever.

Persecution of Christians: An annual weekend gathering of evangelical activists concluded with a rallying cry, and a warning, from Vice President Mike Pence for Christians not to be complacent with the midterm elections coming up. Complacency is the greatest threat to Republicans in keeping control of Congress. “The other side is mobilized and some say they’re motivated as never before. But I say we must match — in fact, I say we must surpass — the energy of the American left and their enthusiasm. And if we do, we will win.”

Dr. James Dobson warned Christians that if they neglect their duty to vote in November’s midterm elections, they’ll likely lose their freedom – giving way to a socialist takeover sweeping America. “Socialism would replace freedom and free enterprise. God help us if you and I fail to fulfill our moral responsibility.”

Thankfully, under the Trump administration, Christians fleeing persecution are finally being allowed to take refuge in the US. 70.8% being admitted are now Christian.

A new report says Pastor Andrew Brunson could very soon be released from Turkish detention after months of immense pressure from President Trump has sent the Turkish lira into a nosedive.

A New Jersey court has agreed with atheists that fixing furnaces or repairing broken plumbing in historic church buildings is “religious;” therefore, they should be denied. This violates the First Amendment’s requirement that the government remain neutral on matters of religion.

A Muslim Brotherhood memo urged its Islamic supporters to burn churches down in Egypt, so why are they still not considered a terrorist group by the US?—The Democrat Party refuses to do so. Worse still, the Democrats advance the Muslim Brotherhood in America. The Muslim Brotherhood’s most powerful operative, DNC co-chair Hakim Muhammad (aka Keith Ellison), has a history of well-documented sexual assault and beatings of women, and the Democrats support his run for Attorney General in Minnesota.

The banishment of Christianity is on the rise in countries around the world, and the left would like nothing better than to see Christianity erased from the US too. The latest example is in Alabama. The Blount County School District ended prayer over the public address system before high school athletic events after a complaint was filed by an atheist group. The decision upset neighbors of the schools who had grown accustomed to the tradition of hearing prayers to God over the schools’ PA systems for years. Attendees of one football game wore “We Believe” T-shirts in response and recited the Lord’s Prayer.

In the face of an ongoing Communist crackdown, over 300 pastors in China have vowed to continue preaching the Gospel, even if it costs them their lives. The government is only approving only those individuals and groups who agree to a rigid, socialist version of religion tightly controlled by the atheist government. Pope Francis is under fire for agreeing to let the government appoint Catholic bishops.

In Kenya, a Muslim mob stoned three Christians to death. The three managed to flee into a nearby hotel, though badly injured. The Muslims relentlessly followed them and killed them.

Christians in the Central African Republic decided not to allow their country to be overrun by Muslim jihadist rebels who illegally grabbed the seat of power and have been slaughtering, raping, and persecuting the Christian majority. Not only have they retaken their government, they’ve obliterated 417 of the nation’s 436 mosques and forced tens of thousands of Muslims to flee. Still the danger exists from Muslim terrorists determined to take over and kill the Christians.

Persecution of Jews: Muslim activist Linda Sarsour is blaming Jews for policemen that shoot blacks. Islam and the Democrat left share similar agendas which reach new heights of insanity every day.

Attempts to delegitimize Israel are a form of anti-Semitism, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said at a high level forum to combat hatred against Jews. Of course it is. It is absolutely anti-Semitism.

A German appeals court on Tuesday ruled that it could not prevent Kuwait Airways from refusing service to Israeli passengers, even though it believed the policy amounted to discrimination.

Archaeologists believe they’ve found an ancient Israelite encampment in the desert, proving once again the biblical account of the Jewish exodus from Egypt. Jewish history in Israel is obvious to anyone, but those who belong to the father of lies willingly choose to ignore it.

2 Timothy 3; Last Days Corruption and Treachery: In another undercover video from Project Veritas exposing the Deep State, an IRS staffer says the agency should have been harder on conservatives during the 2012 election when applications for tax-exempt status were obstructed for political reasons. He said, “Yeah, I don’t give a s##+ if that is a crime for doing that because … you should give increased scrutiny to those groups….”

The European Union has sided with the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism by announcing that it will implement a special payments channel to maintain economic ties with Iran in order to save the disastrous 2015 nuclear deal.

China’s communist government is conducting overt and covert influence operations aimed at swaying the upcoming November elections in a bid to undermine President Trump.

Republican Senator Ted Cruz and his wife went to dinner at a restaurant, but had to leave when they were accosted by a leftist mob.

Feminist writer Jill Filipovic called on her Twitter followers to divorce their Republican husbands.

Two members of the far-left extremist group, Serve The People – LA were arrested. This is the same group that recently threatened someone for supporting ICE, called for a “sea of armed masses” to rise up against ICE, and encouraged their social media followers to carry out “revolutionary violence against the local government.”

Armed Leftists are calling for mass violence if Brett Kavanaugh is confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Far left activists are already plotting their next move if Judge Kavanaugh is confirmed to the Supreme Court.

An unknown person located in the House of Representatives posted the personal information (cell phone numbers and addresses) of Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, as well as Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch of Utah. All three senators sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and their personal information was posted shortly after each questioned Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh during Thursday’s hearing. They appear to be targeting Republican members of the committee after they question Judge Kavanaugh.

Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford, who claims without any evidence that Kavanaugh attempted to have sexual relations with her at a drunken party while in high school, turns out to have ties to an abortion pill pharmaceutical company called Corcept Therapeutics.

Kavanaugh Strikes Back by Daniel Greenfield: When Brett Kavanaugh showed up for his confirmation hearing, he was affable and cheerful…He complimented senators from both parties. He was a non-controversial nominee looking to go through the process and then move on to the Supreme Court. He would have been a moderate. He’s replacing a moderate. But forged in the fires of a lefty hell, Democrats may have just created the most conservative justice on the Supreme Court. “I have been to hell and then some,” he said. Kavanaugh and his family have received threats from leftists.

New accuser walks back claims against Kavanaugh. A woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her when they attended Yale University in the 1980s called former classmates to back up her claims and told some of them that she couldn’t be certain Kavanaugh was the one who did it, The New York Times reported. Wow, the NYT actually posted this. I wonder if the writer if still with them for telling a truth.

Senator Lindsey Graham has been accused before now of being a RINO, but he is to be applauded for his speech at the Kavanaugh hearing. See at this link.

A left-wing political advocacy group that vowed to inject 5 million into the effort of stopping Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the US Supreme Court has significant ties to globalist George Soros.

Far-left Protestors gathered for the Senate Hearings, and many were bussed in to disrupt the event – Soros-sponsored entities!

Also, a spokesman for Soros is acknowledging that he indirectly funded Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier. Globalist George Soros has his dirty fingers in everything. He’s trying to keep Britain in the EU. The anti-Brexit campaign group, ‘Best for Britain’ that recently received £800,000 from Soros, has ramped up its efforts to revoke article 50 by targeting voters in ‘swing’ constituencies.

Rush Limbaugh explained why the left creates movements like Black Lives Matter and the out of control #MeToo, and why they attack Supreme Court nominees like Brett Kavanaugh. Read at this link. He says they have a mental disorder, but it’s much deeper than that (and more sinister) as we Christians are well aware.

Democrats have long since hit the bottom of the barrel in their attempts to smear Brett Kavanaugh. Now they’ve busted through the bottom and are furiously digging into the dirt. Last night, they presented the latest Kavanaugh scandal: his yearbook. Apparently Kavanaugh wrote something rude in his 12th grade yearbook. This is supposed to have some sort of significance, though nobody can quite explain why.

The diverse hatreds of the Democrats: The Human Rights Campaign, the country’s top gay rights lobby, held its 22nd annual dinner. Top speakers included Joe Biden, who bemoaned the lack of acceptance for gay people, Anne Hathaway, who shrieked, “Let’s tear this world apart and build a better one,” and Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder, who declared, “The age of bullies and bigots is not fully behind us.” Holder would know. He was last seen posing with Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin’s funeral. The leader of the Nation of Islam is both a bigot and a bully. He also loathes gay people. Hypocrisy from the left knows no bounds.

Former Massachusetts Democrat state senator Brian Joyce, who was awaiting trial on federal corruption charges, was found dead in his home. Foul play has been ruled out for now. In December 2017, Joyce was named in a 113-count indictment charging him with racketeering, extortion, wire fraud and money laundering.

Apostasy in the churches and 1 Timothy 4 doctrines of devils: In California, Grace Cathedral Episcopal church in San Francisco has been particularly controversial this year with its Beyoncé Mass, an LGBT forum and men cross-dressing as nuns. This month’s interfaith service focused on climate change, and features men and women dressed in tree-people costumes, accompanied by representatives of the Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist religions, among others.

Also in California, Evangelical College Azusa Pacific, which has 8 campus locations in the state, announced it will be allowing LGBT relationships for students on campus, after years of pressure.

Mega pastor Andy Stanley is attacking the Old Testament again, insisting that Jesus rendered the Ten Commandments null and void, issuing one new law “as a replacement for everything.” Stanley has adopted a virulent form of “replacement theology” that robs Abraham and his descendants of God’s eternal covenants with them. In fact, Stanley labels that covenant in his book as “temporary.” He claims that the idea of a loving God is a “uniquely Christian idea.”

The German progressive weekly Der Spiegel has ended its love affair with the pope, declaring that the Church’s sex abuse crisis is “increasingly about Pope Francis.” One Vatican cardinal, who spoke under the condition of anonymity, said of the pontiff: “He preaches mercy, but in reality he is an ice-cold, cunning Machiavellian, and, what is worse – he lies.”

A report leaked by two German media outlets, Der Spiegel and Die Zeit, on Sept. 12 found that the German Catholic Church covered up at least 3,677 alleged cases of child sexual abuse by at least 1,670 clergymen from 1946 to 2014.

According to the latest count by the Chilean national prosecutor’s office, some 221 Catholic priests and 8 bishops are being investigated up and down the country on charges of sexual abuse and cover-up, all due to allegations made from the year 2000 to date.

The former Vatican ambassador, who accused three popes and their advisers of covering up for an American ex-cardinal accused of sexual abuse, has denounced Pope Francis’ refusal to directly respond to his claims and challenged the Vatican to say what it knows about the scandal. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano penned a new missive a month after his initial 11-page bombshell sent shockwaves through the Catholic Church. It was uploaded to a document-sharing site late Thursday.

In Chicago, the controversial Cardinal Cupich fired Reverend Paul Kalchik from the gay-friendly Resurrection Parrish for burning a gay pride flag that showed a rainbow and a Christian Cross intertwined. Kalchik admitted to burning the flag with assistance from a few congregation members despite orders not to, but said he did so a quiet manner. The flag used to be at another parish that caught fire in 1990. The pastor of that parish, Fr. Daniel Montalbano, had brought this flag with him when he transferred to Resurrection Parrish after a fire at his parish in 1990.

Fr. Montalbano was found dead in his rectory bedroom hooked up to a sex machine in 1997. Kalchik said Montalbano’s room in Resurrection’s rectory also had body-sized mirrors lining one of the walls, and two closets full of homosexual porn materials. Cupich sent two controversial priests to supposedly send Kalchik to a pastoral mental facility for burning the gay flag. Kalchik, who sensed danger to his life, took off and is supposedly in hiding. Kalchik was a victim of sex abuse as a boy and was raped by a Catholic priest when he was a teen. He and the others were tired of the gay sex abuse scandal in the church and decided to burn the flag.

Returned days of Noah and Lot: Children’s Hospital in Colorado has removed naming the gender from patient wristbands to support the many flavors of gender diversity.

A new law recently passed in California allows children as young as 12 years old to receive taxpayer-funded transgender treatments and services, without parental consent. The law gives children in foster care the right to transgender treatments as well as former youths up to 26 years of age.

A student petition that criticizes a Texas high school’s dress code as “outdated” and “gender biased” wants administrators to change the rules and allow boys to wear makeup on campus so they may express themselves.

Planned Parenthood convinced a hotel in Austin, Texas, to cancel a screening of a new movie about convicted abortionist Kermit Gosnell.

On July 25, the Food and Drug Administration signed a contract to acquire “fresh” tissue from aborted babies so it could transplant that tissue into mice. On Monday, the Trump administration canceled that contract. This is an unambiguous victory for the sanctity of human life. The underlying question now is: Will the federal government follow up on the cancellation of this one contract and completely and finally terminate its practice of spending approximately $100 million per year on research that creates a market for tissue taken from aborted babies? Not if the Democrat left has its way.

Pestilence/diseases: Gay and bisexual men under 30 make up nearly half of all new HIV diagnoses in the US, and they’re the only age group whose rate of infection is getting worse, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention. The number of gay and bisexual men in Georgia living with HIV jumped 70% between 2008-2015, making it the state with the fifth-highest number of gay and bisexual men living with HIV.

China announced a 14% jump in the number of its citizens living with HIV and Aids. Over 820,000 people are affected. About 40,000 new cases were reported in the second quarter of 2018 alone.

The number of babies born with syphilis has more than doubled since 2013, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

A portion of a water system in Louisiana has tested positive for a brain-eating amoeba.

The World Health Organization warned this week that the fight against Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo is facing a “perfect storm” that could help an outbreak spin out of control.

Monkeypox has now affected a third person in the UK, in Blackpool. A healthcare worker has been quarantined in an effort to prevent the potentially deadly virus from spreading. The UK’s first case was a Nigerian citizen and naval officer staying at a base in Cornwall. PHE said it was working to trace people who may have shared their flight to the UK. The second case was diagnosed in Blackpool in a person who had independently visited Nigeria.

Despair: The principal deputy director of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) warned that “Suicide – in all ages except for young children and the elderly – is one of the few conditions that are getting worse instead of better around the country.”

Wars and rumors of wars: Despite two groups claiming responsibility for the attack on a military parade in Iran (one: the terrorist group ISIS, and another: a group wanting freedom from the brutal regime), Iran still blames Israel and the US for the attack. The deputy head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Hossein Salami warned Israeli and US leaders to expect a “devastating” response from Iran.

An Iran video threatens missile strikes on Israel and the Gulf states. Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu warned the UN this week that Israel has uncovered what they believe is a “secret atomic warehouse” in Iran.

Russia’s Vlad Putin tested his new missiles by blowing up a fleet of warships in a training exercise.

The Pentagon is removing four U.S. missile systems from the Middle East next month as the military steps up its focus on threats from China and Russia. The US will also close its consulate in the southern Iraqi city of Basra, blaming increasing threats from Iran and Iranian-backed forces.

Russia blames Israel for the Syrian regime’s accidental downing of a Russian military plane in Syria, and is responding by delivering an advanced missile defense system to Syria. This action has serious implications. Israel cannot stand by and allow Iran to move weapons of mass destruction from Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon. Add to this the other signs and the failing economies in Russia, Iran and Turkey (the evil big three), and we can see Isaiah 17 and Ezekiel 38-39 looming ahead.

Gaza’s Hamas terrorist rulers say ceasefire talks have halted, and they promise more border violence against Israel. The Gaza economy is also collapsing, and it’s the fault of Hamas, the terrorist regime that runs the region. This will surely cause them to wreak more havoc. The Middle East is a hotbed of tension right now, more than ever.

Islam’s agenda of world domination and jihad: At the ValleyFair amusement park in Minnesota, police and emergency responders evacuated all the guests after a mob of Somali teenagers and men rushed through security and caused several violent fights to break out inside the park.

In the USA, 650 Bangladeshi nationals were arrested in a single Texas border sector so far this year. Bangladesh is almost totally Muslim.

Canada is bowing to Islam, becoming more Sharia-compliant by the day. CBC, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, described the suspects of armed robberies as “26-year-old from Brampton” and “25-year-old from Toronto,” ignoring the information provided by the Peel Police who identified the suspects by their namesm “Aynla Mustafa Hassan” and “Mossab Abdelrahim.”

The executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) was invited by Turkey’s President Erdogan and Iranian President Rouhani to meet with them in New York during the UN General Assembly meeting. CAIR is a Washington DC-based group designated a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates due to alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Cologne, Germany is bracing for protests as Turkey’s President Erdogan opens a mega mosque there.
A Syrian national recently arrested in Germany was part of an apparent plot to attack Israeli targets with chemical weapons.

Police in the Netherlands arrested seven men over an alleged plot to carry out a major terrorist attack. Three had been arrested previously for trying to travel abroad to join foreign militants. The man at the center of the group is of Iraqi origin, who was convicted in 2017 for trying to travel to fight for ISIS.

Japan doesn’t want the chaos that has hit Europe due to the Muslim invasion, so they only let in 27 Muslim “refugees.” Two of them have already been arrested for rape.

End of days technology: Is the rise of the robot the demise of the restaurant server, chef and bartender? Restaurants like Spyce are leading the way with robots that cook complex meals on-demand. Companies such as OTG reimagined the restaurant airport experience and replaced servers who take customer orders with self-ordering tablets. A study by the Center for an Urban Future found that the automation potential for waiters and waitresses is 77%. That figure increases to 87% when you factor in workers that prep food.

Surveillance society: A survey of the percentages of search traffic received by 36 U.S. news sites, including many of the biggest, provides stark evidence that Google, representing nearly 90% of the market share of U.S. searches, is playing ideological favorites with those leaning left and most antagonistic to President Trump and the Republican Party near the last stretch of the 2018 mid-term elections that could change the balance of power in Congress.

A number of Google employees are very concerned about Google’s “disturbing” plans in China. One resigned and 1,400 others signed the letter he sent to US lawmakers. Google’s work on a Chinese product – codenamed Dragonfly – would aid Beijing’s efforts to censor and monitor its citizens online.

The coming one-world government: President Trump is trying to stop the globalists from taking over. In his address before the UN General Assembly, he rejected “global governance, control, and domination” and honored the right of every nation to pursue its own customs, beliefs, and traditions, adding that the US will never tell other nations how to live, work, or worship.

If Europeanize were not a word, we would have to invent it, because that is what many are doing to America. Obama and his friends think America should not be exceptional. So they do everything they can to end its exceptional nature, and to make it resemble other nations. They are Europeanizing America. Yes, the “elite” want to Europeanize America. But in view of what has happened in Europe in the last century, and what is happening there now, this seems like a really abysmal idea. Keep that in mind when you vote.

Rothschild, Soros, Corbyn and One Europe – the Road to Global Governance. Corbyn is totally committed to mass migration into the United Kingdom and Europe, employing the Soros strategies of moral blackmail and name-calling in order to intimidate and silence any opposition.

The forerunner “Peace” Proposal: President Trump said he recommends a two-state solution and would like “peace” in his first term, but the actual proposal has still not been revealed. Egyptian President Al-Sisi said the two-state solution should be part of any American peace plan and that the plan should include principles from previous negotiations between Israel and the “Palestinians.” It would appear Sisi could be referring to the Oslo Accords that have yet to be “confirmed.” God’s will will be done, and Daniel 9:27 awaits to bring Israel to repentance and acceptance of their Messiah Jesus in the “time of Jacob’s trouble” otherwise known as the Tribulation.

Interesting tidbit: A 2,000 foot wide asteroid that looks like a human skull that was discovered in October 2015 and passed Earth on Halloween of that year fairly close, all things considered, will pass further away just five days after midterm elections in the US.

“The Rankest Compound of Villainous Smell That Ever Offended Nostril”…and more

“Seas and waves roaring.” Extreme weather:

For days, Hurricane Florence dumped relentless rain on the Carolinas. Rivers continue to rise as all that water continues to make its way downstream into this coming week. Floodwaters have breached a dam that contains a manmade lake connected to a Duke Energy power plant in North Carolina, possibly causing coal ash to flow into the nearby Cape Fear River. People are wondering when will it end? The storm’s death toll is up to 44 people (32 in North Carolina, nine in South Carolina and three in Virginia). Eight tornadoes wreaked havoc in Virginia where tornadoes are rare. Seven were in the Richmond metro area.

Typhoon Mangkhut (the most powerful storm of 2018 so far) left at least 81 people dead and dozens of others missing before striking Hong Kong and southern China, where it caused four more deaths and plenty of damage and flooding.

Over 100 people died in floods after Nigeria’s two major rivers burst their banks due to heavy rains.

National Hurricane Center forecasters are keeping an eye on four areas of disturbed weather in the Atlantic and Caribbean, including Tropical Storm Kirk.

Long dormant eruptions: A thermal spring near Old Faithful in Yellowstone National Park has erupted for the fourth time in the last 60 years. The eruption is among the new thermal activity seen over the last several days on Geyser Hill.

“There shall be… earthquakes in diverse places.” In Denmark, a rare 3.4 earthquake struck West Jutland, an area not usually associated with seismic activity. There were several earthquakes in the ocean this week that registered over 5.0.

Wildfires: In California, the Charlie Fire in Castaic grew from 1,200 acres to 3,000 acres in just one hour on Saturday from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. The Delta Fire is at this point 94% contained with 60,702 acres burned. There are a number of other wildfires burning in California. See at this link.

In Utah, crews are gradually gaining control of two massive wildfires in Utah County that have been raging and threatening homes for several weeks.

In Australia, authorities have issued a bushfire emergency warning for the Kununurra suburb of Lakelands in Western Australia’s north. People are warned to act immediately to survive as there was a threat to lives and homes. For some it’s too late to leave and people must shelter in their homes.

“There shall be… pestilences.” For the first time since 2016, a Michigan resident was diagnosed with Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), a mosquito-borne virus that can lead to lasting brain damage and even death.

97 people have died from the latest Ebola outbreak with nearly 50 more infected with the fatal disease; It has now sprung up almost 125 miles away from the previous epidemic.

“There shall be signs in the sun.” Some scientists believe that Earth is due for a severe space weather event. We are heading into a solar minimum when sunspots and solar flares generally subside; however, Dean Pesnell of NASA warned, “during a solar minimum, we can see development of long-lived coronal holes” which allow streams of solar particles known as coronal mass ejection (CMEs) to escape the sun as fast solar wind. If the coronal hole is Earth-facing, electrically charged particles from the Sun slam into Earth’s magnetic field and cause intense electromagnetic storms around the planet. The impact on the electronic infrastructure can be devastating.

“All those who will live godly in Christ shall be persecuted.”

Many Christians in the western world don’t realize that the persecution of the end times has already started. All over the world, Christians are being attacked, Bibles are being burned and churches are being shut down. This persecution has been escalating for some time, but there’s a dramatic change in China this year. New religious regulations are brutally enforced, causing some to point out frightening parallels between Communist China and Nazi Germany.

“Many shall be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”

The Emmy awards were what we’ve come to expect these days of award shows. All award show ratings are down, but despite this, they continue to promote the leftist political agenda. Host Michael Che took a jab at white people, Republicans and even Jesus, saying, “The only white people that thank Jesus are Republicans and ex-crackheads.” Actress Thandie Newton said she didn’t believe in God but would thank her anyway. During a song and dance routine, a straight white man asked to be included in their celebration of diversity only to be told his kind was not welcome. Tracy Morgan declared, “I’m only rooting for the black people.” Such as these have bought into the “useful idiot” communist agenda.

Fox Nation host Britt McHenry said, “Most Republicans have stopped watching awards shows or know that, even if they can stomach it, the White House and their core values will be attacked…Reverence for God is something to cherish and uphold, not ridicule.”

Islam and the globalist left use each other to achieve their agendas of world domination. Both are, to quote Shakespeare, “the rankest compound of villainous smell that ever offended nostril.”

Six Flags in New Jersey held the ‘Great Muslim Adventure Day’ just days after the anniversary of 9/11. ICNA, the event organizer, is a terror-linked Muslim group whose leader was sentenced to death for war crimes, sells books on jihad, and literally promotes “Shariah For America.”

The US Dept. of Homeland Security reissued for the seventh time a National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin, which makes note of terrorists’ potential to use drones and chemical attacks outside of the groups’ occupied territory and conflict zones, exploiting the Internet to inspire, enable, or direct individuals already here in the homeland to commit terrorist acts.

The terrorist group Boko Haram released a video, saying if they’re not given ransoms within the next month, they will execute those they’ve kidnapped, which includes Red Cross aid workers and Leah Sharibu, a Christian 16-year-old schoolgirl.

“Mankind shall be traitors.” Hence, the leftist global agenda:

Project Veritas is releasing a series of videos exposing the Deep State and their dirty deeds. See at this link. There may be more to come. Keep alert to what’s going on.

Many Tentacles of George Soros in America in One Eye-Opening Chart: In President Trump’s first year in office, George Soros has spent more on lobbying than during any previous year.

Former Utah Congressman Jason Chaffetz published a book exposing the Secret Government in Washington entitled “The Deep State: How an Army of Bureaucrats Protected Barack Obama and Is Working to Destroy the Trump Agenda.” He said, “When I went to Congress, I didn’t really know what the Deep State was or if it was real or not real, but I left knowing that it is very real…It is an abrasion approach that many federal bureaucrats do to wait out administrations.

Bob Woodward, the Watergate reporter whose word is gospel for liberals, drew one important conclusion after investigating the Trump Administration for two years to write his latest book, Fear: Trump in the White House. He found no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia to rig the election. But being the liberal leftist that he is, he’s still hopeful something will turn up.

Devin Nunes says he doesn’t understand why FISA documents haven’t been released, noting Trump ordered these so-called Russia docs be declassified immediately without redactions. Nunes said the people “running around” saying there are national security concerns are the culprits themselves. “They are either covering up for their agency, or they are involved.” No doubt.

Leftists are angry that the Trump administration will cap the number of supposed refugees allowed into the US at 30,000 for the fiscal year 2019, a drop from a limit of 45,000 it set for 2018. The new limit reflected the administration’s preference for settling refugees closer to their home countries. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said, “We must continue to responsibly vet applicants to prevent the entry of those who might do harm to our country.”

A St. Clair, Illinois, Democrat leader told a crowd during a rally to “vote early, vote often, whatever you can get away with.” He followed that remark with, “I shouldn’t say that, but I really don’t care.”

Debra Katz, the Democrat activist attorney representing Democrat activist Christine Blasey Ford (who’s suddenly come out of the woodwork at such a convenient time, accusing Brett Kavanaugh of a high school era sexual assault attempt), is the vice chair of the Project on Government Oversight — a group funded in large part by George Soros and his Open Society Foundation. Kavanaugh’s accuser is also getting advice from Democratic super-activist Ricki Seidman who’s worked for the Clinton campaigns.

Ford may or may not be a no-show at this week’s Kavanaugh hearings. She and the left say they want a full investigation first – aka a Democrat ploy to wait till midterm elections are over, thinking they’ll win and put their man in?  The left does not want Kavanaugh to be a Supreme Court Justice and is doing all it can to stop it. This is a significant mid-term election coming up. Don’t stay home. Vote, brethren.

If and when she does show up, an article from Canada Free Press says, “Code Pink and the same screeching activists who had to be led out of last week’s hearings will be there to stump for her cause. It only takes $20-an-hour to bring activists out to protest with George Soros’ ‘non-profits’ handing out the cash…Only non-Democrats lose their jobs, families and integrity when #MeToo comes to take them down…The Democrats give a pass to gropers like Senator Cory Booker and protects the names of seated members—at least two of them outed last December by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and House Rep Jackie Speier for flashing their private parts right on the house floor.

And let’s not forget about Obama’s sexual display on a plane to giggling female reporters when he was president.

Senator Cory Booker didn’t just confine his attack to Kavanaugh (who is a mild-mannered man widely beloved by Democrats and Republicans who worked with him). Booker attacked the founding fathers and the Constitution, etc. – the same man who has said terrible things about the Jewish people. For example, he has said, “The only good Zionist is a dead Zionist; we must take a lesson from Hitler” (of whom he has said was “the greatest white man”).

Democrat Selective Outrage: A medical document from 2017 details the physical and verbal abuse allegedly done by deputy chair of the Democratic National Committee, Keith Ellison, to his former girlfriend, Karen Monahan (a Democrat). Her son posted on social media about it in August, and afterwards she agreed it was true. Just days after Monahan’s allegations came to light, Ellison won the Democratic primary for Minnesota’s attorney general.

Monahan claims to have been smeared, threatened and isolated from her own Democratic Party. And she wonders why Kavanaugh is being suddenly being accused of something he allegedly did in high school 40 years ago with no substantiated proof, yet there is proof of what Ellison did that the Democrats ignore.

Kavanaugh’s accuser says a drunken 17-year-old Brett corralled her at a party and attempted to remove her bathing suit. She says a friend witnessed this, but that friend denies the incident. He is the fourth witness that claims no knowledge of this incident occurring.

Brett Kavanaugh and his wife and children are receiving vicious threats. Kavanaugh’s accuser claims she’s receiving threats too.

John Kerry is undermining the US yet again, working with her enemies, this time the Iranian mullahs, trying to salvage his deeply flawed Iran nuclear deal.

Former federal employee Jessica Schubel told an undercover reporter that there’s a “resistance movement” inside the federal establishment that’s trying to undermine the administration of President Trump. To that end, she says former colleagues provided her with insider information, including confidential documents which she acknowledges is probably illegal.

Democrats have vowed massive tax hikes if they win. Alexander Hendrie, tax-policy director at Americans for Tax Reform, cites vows by Democratic Party leaders to undo the Trump tax cuts as soon as they can, the very tax cuts that economists believe have been the major catalyst for the current economic resurgence. He said Democrats are proposing new, trillion-dollar-a-year tax hikes. Globalists can’t stand for the US to prosper.

The claimed coming “blue wave” isn’t working to plan for “dem.” Republican Peter Flores, a retired game warden, pulled an upset win in a special election for Texas’s 19th Senate District over the Democrat nominee. The district spans 35,000 square miles. This was for a very long time Democrat territory. More people are waking up to the leftist agenda.

A rumor went out that President Trump through FEMA was going to text all Americans on their mobile phones in order to test the Emergency system; and some liberal leftists went ballistic. Even if that rumor were true, why would one not want to be notified immediately if a disaster is imminent?

“False prophets shall arise and shall deceive many.”

Rachel Treweek, the Church of England’s first female diocesan bishop, said: “I don’t want young girls or young boys to hear us constantly refer to God as he,” adding that it was important to be “mindful of our language.” Other Church of England leaders say the tendency to describe God as “he” is a growing problem, some going so far as to argue calling God a man is heresy.

Wall Street Journal columnist Scott G. Bruce of Fordham University argued that mankind will be better off once it dispels the notion of Hell. He said, “In some distant, better future, the foreclosure of Hell will be an important step in the maturation of human communities.” He agreed with Pope Francis’ alleged statement that Hell is not a real place. Yet the Bible refers to it in quite a number of Scriptures as a real place, indeed.

Pope Francis was just given a book about the former pope John Paul II. Upon receiving it he said, “[Pope John Paul II] was a saint, I am the devil,” supposedly alluding to the criticism he is under. An article from the Catholic website Novus Ordo Watch (that exposes what it calls the Modernist Vatican II church) said, “For once he tells the truth.” The article also states, “They’re both devils.” But don’t take anyone’s word for it. See 1 Timothy 4:1-3 to see what the Bible says.

The Vatican has made an announcement that they have worked out a deal for the Chinese government to control how Catholic bishops are chosen, thus ensuring that the government is able to monitor and control everything.

We mustn’t leave out Islam when speaking of false prophets. An Indonesian city ordered its top civil servants to go to a mosque for dawn prayers or risk being fired, and they’ve been warned that a smartphone app was in the works to seek out the less-than-devout. Religious minorities in this mostly Muslim nation have been targeted, including Christian congregations targeted by suicide bombers. Authorities have also subjected homosexuals to whippings. Christians may not support homosexuality, but they certainly don’t advocate such things. We’re called instead to warn people in order to try and save them from the sins that defile them (Jude 1:22).

“Inquity (wickedness; lawlessness) shall abound.” In London, stabbings are through the roof, so to speak. A glut of cocaine flooding the country has been partly blamed for the violent crime. In England and Wales, there are 21,000 fewer police officers now than in 2010. Also, there has been a decrease in “stop and search” which emboldens offenders. No wonder these attacks are getting worse.

In New Jersey, Maria Teresa Venegas, a 25-year-old deli owner, pleaded guilty to bilking the federal government out of $888,000 in a more than six-year food stamp fraud scheme

Works of darkness: (Ephesians 5:11-16):

Derek Sheehan of Massachusetts, a married father and football coach, has been charged with raping dozens of young boys and filming himself committing the horrific acts.

In New Mexico, a federal search warrant revealed that Sunspot Solar Observatory was shut down as FBI agents conducted computer searches for child pornography. An investigation claims that a janitor is the main suspect, yet he has not been charged with a crime even though his name is on the warrant.

The Catholic church in Brooklyn, New York, has reached a record $27.5 million settlement with four men who were sexually abused as children when they were between the ages of 8 to 12.

The Florence Project describes itself as a free service for unaccompanied migrant children entering the US. Hillary Clinton tweeted from her official Twitter account that she was working with the Arizona based charity. However, some people pointed out that the Florence Project logo looks an awful lot like the pedophile symbol for those who prefer little boys. Who knew they had symbols for their preferences? Here are some more.

Kimberly Thompson, former drummer of singer Beyonce, in court documents accused Beyonce of a campaign of harassment against her that included the practice of ‘dark magic’ and ‘magic spells of sexual molestation.’ Thompson also claimed Beyonce murdered her kitten.

The Indiana Chapter of the Satanic Temple has adopted a highway in a rural stretch of Zionsville. The sign says, “Adopt a Highway: The Satanic Temple Indiana Chapter.”  An NDOT spokesperson stated that the department respects freedom of speech and that there are no restrictions on what groups can adopt a sign. Those who do are required to clean up the highway of litter 4 times a year.

In England, student editor Angelos Sofocleous of Durham University’s philosophy journal Critique, has been fired after he tweeted that “women don’t have penises.”

In the UK, there has been a 4,000 per cent rise in children wanting to change their sex. The UK’s Government Equalities Office suspects the influence of social media and teaching of transgender philosophy by the educational system has fueled the striking increase in transgender children.

“Sesame Street” writer Mark Saltzman decided that such as time as this would be the perfect time to admit that muppets Bert and Ernie are more than just friends. His admission didn’t go over well with producers of the show, so now he’s suddenly backing down from his gay reveal.

Twitter approved of ads in favor of Female Genital Mutilation after blacklisting Pro-Lifers. Twitter allowed a group to “promote” the paid advertisement which enhances reach of the post and placed it on timelines of users who don’t even follow the account or seek the content out themselves. A Twitter spokesman claimed the promoted post “was approved in error.” However, though Twitter ended the promotion, the post in its non-promoted state remains on the platform, and the group’s Twitter account features dozens of other videos which also advocate for FGM.

Near Oklahoma City, where Christianity runs strong, eight new billboards have been plastered with messages about abortion that are patently insane. Statements on the billboards include “People of faith love those who have abortions” and “God loves those who have abortions.”

In Ireland, a new law states women won’t have to pay for abortion services in the country. The goal is to ensure access and make sure women aren’t forced to travel for the procedure. Ireland’s President Michael Higgins hailed it as “an extraordinarily historic day.”

A feature film ‘Unplanned’ tells the story of Abby Johnson, who was a clinic director at Planned Parenthood and says she helped facilitate 22,000 abortions before quitting the organization in 2009 after watching via ultrasound as one was performed. The film is critical of Planned Parenthood.

Young Americans are dying in rising numbers because of drugs, alcohol, and suicide, according to new federal data. The average lifespan in the US has declined because of these issues.

“Holding to a form of godliness but denying the power thereof.”

In the first of its five affirmations, the so-called Christian Transhumanist Association members say, “We believe that God’s mission involves the transformation and renewal of creation including humanity….” From Gotquestions.org: “The ultimate redemption of mankind is something that will be accomplished by God alone (Revelation 21:1), not by technology.”

Orwellian global society nightmare:

California’s assisted suicide law allows ‘interested’ witnesses, which include beneficiaries, to sign a person’s request for assisted suicide drugs. The new law allows an individual to aid, advise, and encourage a person to commit suicide-AND sign off on the method of suicide-while financially benefitting from the person’s death. Family members who “encourage” the terminally ill into killing themselves will be granted full legal immunity, regardless of their motives for doing so. The patient would have to explicitly state in their will that any family member who encourages assisted suicide is to receive nothing.

Bill Gates, nature worshiper extraordinaire, described the projected birth rates in the poorest parts of Africa as “mind-blowing” and pressed the need for action. If you haven’t heard of the Georgia Guidestones’ ten commands, it includes decreasing earth’s population from 7 billion down to 500 million “in perpetual balance with nature.”

An orientation packet handed out to freshmen at Cornell University this year shows (according to them) an efficient way to determine whether or not a student is “privileged” or “oppressed.” The packet lists gender, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, age, class, educational level, religion, nationality, childhood family structure, disability, ethnicity, size, use of English, and marital/parental status. For example, the packet says that you are “oppressed” if you are a person “of size.” The packet makes no mention of the fact that you’re privileged if you attend an institution like Cornell University.

According to a report, Amazon is considering opening 3,000 of its cashierless stores by 2021.

Researchers claim to have developed a simulator which can feed information directly into a person’s brain and teach them new skills in a short amount of time. They believe it could be the first steps in developing advanced software that will make Matrix-style instant learning a reality. (Instant learning aka instant programming/indoctrination.)

Apple is now giving people “trust scores” based on their calls and emails. This information will likely not be a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to Big Tech’s increasing propensity to violate the privacy of users and use their data for questionable reasons, but here we are.

A Soros-funded organization called “Data & Society” group is lobbying YouTube to censor conservative voices.

Internal emails show conversations between Google employees desiring to manipulate search results to boost left-leaning political views on immigration.

Google bosses had employees delete a confidential memo circulating inside the company that revealed explosive details about a plan to launch a censored search engine in China. The memo, authored by a Google engineer disclosed that the search system, codenamed Dragonfly, would require users to log in to perform searches, track their location — and share the resulting history with a Chinese partner who would have “unilateral access” to the data.

In the UK,  Home secretary Sajid Javid and culture secretary Jeremy Wright are considering the introduction of a mandatory code of practice for social media platforms and strict new rules such as “takedown times” forcing websites to remove what it considers illegal hate speech within a set timeframe or face penalties. The government is looking at legislation passed in Germany last year requiring social media platforms to remove so-called illegal hate speech within 24 hours or face fines of up to 50 million euros. We can see where this is leading.

Another alternative (for now) to the social media minions: USA.Life is America’s new social network. 1776Free is the nation’s new search engine. USA.Life and 1776Free are the answer to Facebook, Google and Twitter censoring Christians, conservatives, patriotic speech.

“Nation shall rise against nation.”

In Iran, a senior spokesman for Iran’s armed forces used Islam’s practice of lying (taqiyya) by blaming Israel and the US for an attack that killed 24 people wounded over 60 when gunmen opened fire on a military parade. A local Arab group that describes itself as devoted to protecting the rights of (Iran’s) Khuzestan province’s ethnic Arab minority claimed responsibility. Their statement: “This action was part of our legitimate resistance and no civilians were targeted in the attack.”

“Ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars.”

China told the US to withdraw sanctions on its military over purchases of Russian jets and missiles or “bear the consequences.”

Japan carried out its first submarine drill in the South China Sea, a move that could provoke China which claims most of the disputed waters.

Tensions between Russia and Ukraine are heightening. UK Defense Secretary Gavin Williamson committed more British troops in the Ukraine to stop Russia “reversing the Cold War outcome.” “Our commitment remains unwavering,” Williamson said. “As long as the danger lasts we will continue to stand by your side. The safer you are here, the safer we are in the UK.”

The Iranian Revolutionary Guards and army carried out a joint aerial military drill in the Gulf. The Iranian government says it could take military action in the Gulf to block other countries’ oil exports in retaliation for U.S. sanctions.

US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley said that in recent months Iran’s aggression has escalated. Iranian proxies are in Iraq operating openly with funding, training, and weapons supplied by Iran.

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape” (1 Thessalonians 5:3).

The leaders of the two Koreas signed an agreement that includes missile site shutdown and a joint Olympic bid, agreeing to turn the peninsula into a “land of peace without nuclear weapons.” It’s hard to believe Kim Jong Un has suddenly changed his leopard spots. He no doubt has his own agenda; he just wants sanctions lifted. And we know that true peace will not be achieved in these last days – not until Jesus returns and restores it.

The UN General Assembly is in session in New York. The theme is “Making the United Nations relevant to all people: global leadership and shared responsibilities for peaceful, equitable and sustainable societies”

President Trump will present his requested peace proposal to the nations at the UN General Assembly in New York on September 25. When the real deal comes along in the near future, it will be the Antichrist (from Europe) who “will confirm a covenant with many” (Daniel 9:27). God’s will will be done. He will use it to turn Israel back to Him when the Antichrist breaks this covenant and comes after the Jews in Israel (Matthew 24:15).

The Tribulation temple (Daniel 9:27; Matthew 24:15):

The number of Jews ascending the Temple Mount has more than doubled since two years ago, and almost tripled since 2014. Over 100 rabbinic leaders ascended the Temple Mount for the first time this year, which signifies a change in their policy concerning the holy site. “It is a new phenomenon to have rabbinic authoritative rabbis ruling that not only is it permitted to go up to the Temple Mount, but that we are required to go up,” said Yaakov Hayman, the head of Yishai, an NGO dedicated to reinstating Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount.

Israeli law mandates freedom of religion and universal prayer at holy sites, but Israeli police have chosen to abide by restrictions that prohibit Jews from praying in the Temple Mount so as to avoid a violent Muslim backlash. Hayman said, “There is no way the police can prevent thousands, or even hundreds of Jews from praying on the Temple Mount. We haven’t yet achieved that critical mass, but it is clear to everyone that we are well on our way to get there. When the Nation of Israel decides they want to pray to God on the Temple Mount, there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that will be able to stop us.”

Heathen raging against Israel:

“Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us” (Psalm 2:1-3).

At the University of Michigan, John Cheney-Lippold, an associate professor in the university’s Department of American Culture refused to write a letter of recommendation for a student to study abroad in Israel, saying “many university departments have pledged an academic boycott against Israel.”

Previous administrations have resisted allowing Jerusalem-born Americans to list “Israel” as their birth country, saying that it would be de facto recognition of Israel’s claim to the city. Now, 55 US House Republicans have sent a letter to President Trump asking him to direct the State Department to allow US citizens born in Jerusalem to list Israel as their birth country on their passport.

For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them (judge them) there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land…Now what have you against me, Tyre and Sidon (Lebanon—Hezbollah) and all you regions of Philistia (Gaza—Hamas)? Are you repaying me for something I have done? If you are paying me back, I will swiftly and speedily return on your own heads what you have done” (Joel 3:1-2, 4).

The terror group Hamas is encouraging Gaza residents to escalate its weekly protests along Israel’s border in their so-called March of Return.

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah claimed that the balance of power between his Lebanese Shi’ite terror group and Israel has “changed,” and that the group has accurate missiles which would be used in the next conflict. A prominent Iranian cleric said, “Mr. Netanyahu, you and your intelligence services know well that the time to say goodbye has arrived and what position of strength the resistance of Hezbollah and the people of Gaza are in.” Netanyahu said if Hezbollah dares confront Israel it will receive an unimaginable response.

“The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap” (Isaiah 17:1).

On September 15, the Israel military launched a missile strike in the vicinity of the Damascus International Airport, hitting an arms depot that supplied Hezbollah. Then on Monday, a munitions warehouse in a military facility in Syria was obliterated in an Israeli airstrike. While fighting back, Syrian forces accidentally shot down a Russian military reconnaissance plane. Russia falsely blamed Israel, claiming its jets got in the way deliberately so the Syrian regime wouldn’t see that it was a Russian plane. However, we know that God can and does intervene in such a way.

On the eve of the 45th anniversary of the Yom Kippur War, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will never repeat the mistake it made in 1973 by not preempting an enemy attack.

“Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about. Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great. Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision… So shall ye know that I am the Lord your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more” (Joel 3:12-14, 17).
