CNN and other major US news outlets continue to ignore massive demonstrations in Catalan, as they seek independence from Spain. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-24052713) Perhaps it is time for Believers to start a similar movement in Texas or other states. While it may seem to be a Quixotic endeavor, it would give a chance for Believers to band together … Continue reading “Catalan Independence”
Children of the Beast
I have often referred to the children of the Beast. Who am I referring to with this phrase? When the Beast, the Anti-Christ, rises to power, he will not do so as a lone agent. Prophecy interpretation is that he will gain dominion over a reconstituted Roman Empire, controlling 10 nations. Given that the former … Continue reading “Children of the Beast”
Extreme Medicine
In the past, I have referred to the monetary stimulus programs of the Federal Reserve as heroine. The Federal Reserve has not done anything to make the US economy healthier, but rather has made the economy seem better — similar to giving heroine to a junky. The heroine makes the junky feel better, but the … Continue reading “Extreme Medicine”

Many Believers must still worship in private and can only gather together in secrecy. The Book of Revelation indicates that in the End of Days, Believers will be persecuted in the countries that fall under the … Continue reading “The Coming Persecution”
The growing Christian minority and the coming persecution
The Supreme Court ruling establishing the legality of marriage between homosexual couples may prove to be a powerful force in causing Christians to become a small minority of the US (and Europe as well as countries there move to legalize gay marriage). The Bible has clearly stated its teaching that homosexual acts are abhorrent to God. Given … Continue reading “The growing Christian minority and the coming persecution”
More smoke circling Italy’s government finances
On a number of occasions, we have referred to allegations that the Italian government used derivatives to allow it to meet the requirements for joining the Euro zone in the 1999. Given recent market reports of large unrealized losses on derivative contracts held by the Italian government, it was announced that there would be a … Continue reading “More smoke circling Italy’s government finances”
Erosion of Democracy and the Rise of the Beast
I have put the section, Erosion of Democracy, into the archive section for now. It is not dated, but I am wrestling with my rewrite. It is a nuanced argument, and I am not the best writer. In the end, I will probably end up simplifying it, and then go into depth on different aspects … Continue reading “Erosion of Democracy and the Rise of the Beast”
