Crashing Times of Crisis

By Ray Gano

Well we just past the 60 day mark for Obama as our president. I am amazed at everything he is doing, and not in a good way.

Many speculated, even myself that he would do the standard wait for his first four years to be over then push through what he wanted.

Nope, no waiting here.

Just in the last sixty days he has signed an Executive Order reversing Bush's stand on stem cell research.

He is spending this nation very quickly into a 4th world nation via his "stimulus" bill.

He and his democrat buds are trying to make gardening and raising livestock for one’s own use against the law HR 875, while all the time Michelle Obama plants her own little garden at the white house.

Create (reinstate with more regulation) a draconian gun ban; which almost outlaws everything except a black powder flint lock and musket.

Recanted the ban on abortions overseas and is now footed by the tax payer.

Sending millions to Israel’s enemies and helping them build a terrorist training camp.

This is just a short list, there is a lot more that could be covered.

He is doing a fine job of literally killing this nation. In fact I would be very surprised that this nation is still this nation by the end of his first four years and it is replaced with a Marxist socialist form of government.

Folks, I bring all of this up because most likely laws will be created to shut the mouths of Christians and in most cases make the Christian a second rate citizen.

On September 17 2003, Canada's House of Commons passed a bill that adds sexual orientation as a protected category in Canada's genocide and hate-crimes legislation. The bill criminalized public expression, including Sunday sermons, against homosexual behavior. Those convicted of violating the new law face up to five years in prison.

Canada has already been prosecuting pastors and Christians who are standing upon scripture.

Do you know that there was a time when the bible was banned and burned by none other than the Christian Church itself?

"Canon 14. We prohibit also that the laity should not be permitted to have the books of the Old or New Testament; we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books." - The Church Council of Toulouse 1229 AD Source: Heresy and Authority in Medieval Europe,Scolar Press, London, England copyright 1980 by Edward Peters, ISBN 0-85967-621-8, pp. 194-195

The Council of Tarragona of 1234, in its second canon, ruled that:

"No one may possess the books of the Old and New Testaments, and if anyone possesses them he must turn them over to the local bishop within eight days, so that they may be burned..." - The Church Council of Tarragona 1234 AD; 2nd Cannon - Source : D. Lortsch, Historie de la Bible en France, 1910, p.14.

Pope Pius IV had a list of the forbidden books compiled and officially prohibited them in the Index of Trent (Index Librorum Prohibitorum) of 1559.
This is an excerpt :

"Whoever reads or has such a translation in his possession... cannot be absolved from his sins until he has turned in these Bibles...Books in the vernacular dealing with the controversies between Catholics and the heretics of our time are not to be generally permitted, but are to be handled in the same way as Bible translations..." - Rule IV & Rule VI Die Indices Librorum Prohibitorum des sechzehnten Jahrhunderts (Tübingen, 1886), page 246f. Source: The Reformation, by Hans J. Hillerbrand, copyright 1964 by SCM Press Ltd and Harper and Row,Inc., Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 64-15480, pages 474, 475.

Can you imagine the seeker sensitive church today, which stands with Obama and the rest of this pluralistic world, turning against bible believing Christians?

I can and as I have pointed out above, it has happened before.

J. Vernon McGee, one of my favorite pastors and a student of Bible Prophecy stated that eventually the Christian church in America will have to go underground and that the attack against them will come from denominational churches.

With all the modern versions of the bible out there, I can honestly see the powers that be out law only one bible, the King James Version. The KJV is what I use and what I stand upon and I have many issues with modern versions. Some of you may disagree with me, but the way God’s word speaks to me through the KJV is like none other. There is power and conviction in the KJV that I do not see in any other version of the bible out there.

I do not know if you really realize something. The enemy has done a very good job of watering down the truth and has caused millions to say “hath God said” and even caused many to not even have the need to pick up God’s Word at all anymore.

It amazes me how many pastors no longer ask their congregation to “open God’s Word with me and go to___________”

Why should they when they have everything on an overhead projector.

What amazes me more is how many pastors use multiple versions to get their point across.

Want to make homosexuality ok, use the “gay bible.”

Want to make paganism and goddess worship ok, use the “gender neutral” bible

Got a pet sin, there is a bible out there that will help you condone that sin before man.

The church is in very bad shape, and they have forgotten their first love.

But those who have not forgotten their first love are now being persecuted and some are now giving their lives for the Lord all over the world.

How much longer do we have here in this nation before it is against the law to own and read God’s Word and be a bible believing Christian?

But what really stands out in my mind, how many people who claim the title will capitulate and go along with it?

That is what frightens me.

H.R. 875 Rides A Black Horse

By Ray Gano

United States Representative Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) has proposed legislation, H.R. 875, which would literally prohibit Americans from raising food for themselves, their families, or even for their animals, without the national government's permission!

H.R. 875, the so-called Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 (FSMA) sounds innocent enough at first blush, with language purporting to "protect the public health by preventing food-borne illness, ensuring the safety of food, improving research on contaminants leading to food-borne illness, and improving security of food from intentional contamination, and for other purposes." In reality, the FSMA is an extensive and all-controlling abomination that must be stopped!

The FSMA mandates registration of every "food production facility," which the bill defines as "any farm, ranch, orchard, vineyard, aquaculture facility, or confined animal-feeding operation;" and every "food establishment," which the bill defines as "a slaughterhouse..., factory, warehouse, or facility owned or operated by a person located in any State that processes food or a facility that holds, stores, or transports food or food ingredients."

In the last several months I have been seeing a drastic increase in the cost of food. Milk is sitting at $4.25 a gallon, Cheese has gone up $2.00 for a quarter pound block and butter is sitting at $4.65 a box.

Folks, we are coming to the end of the age. We are beginning to see the foundations that have been put in place, start to take effect.

During the tribulation we know that food will become scarce and the cost will sky rocket.

We read in Revelation 6:5-6…

Revelation 6:5 – 6 (KJV) And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Christ himself stated..

Matthew 24:8 (KJV) All these are the beginning of sorrows.

In this Christ was speaking of wars, rumors of wars, false Christ’s, earthquakes, famines, pestilences. He was speaking about now, the end of the age.

Matthew 24:7 (KJV) For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

When one does a study on this verse we learn that he is using verbiage which equates to that of a woman about to give birth, or the birth pangs as it is commonly stated.

Birth pangs do not slow down, ask any mother, she will attest to the fact that they increase in strength and timing. They get harder and more painful as well as coming more frequently.

That is exactly what we are seeing today, read on…

Forget Oil, the New Global Crisis is Food

BMO strategist Donald Coxe warns credit crunch and soaring oil prices will pale in comparison to looming catastrophe.

A new crisis is emerging, a global food catastrophe that will reach further and be more crippling than anything the world has ever seen. The credit crunch and the reverberations of soaring oil prices around the world will pale in comparison to what is about to transpire, Donald Coxe, global portfolio strategist at BMO Financial Group said at the Empire Club's 14th annual investment outlook in Toronto on Thursday.

"It's not a matter of if, but when," he warned investors. "It's going to hit this year hard."

Mr. Coxe said the sharp rise in raw food prices in the past year will intensify in the next few years amid increased demand for meat and dairy products from the growing middle classes of countries such as China and India as well as heavy demand from the biofuels industry.

"The greatest challenge to the world is not US$100 oil; it's getting enough food so that the new middle class can eat the way our middle class does, and that means we've got to expand food output dramatically," he said.

The impact of tighter food supply is already evident in raw food prices, which have risen 22% in the past year.

Source - http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=213343

In this article Mr.Coxe is pointing out the production of biofuel / biodiesel is one of his primary concerns. If you do not know, biofuel / biodiesels are produced by using corn, wheat, sugar beets, ect. Many of the grains and produce used to make biofuel / biodiesel is also the same thing we use to feed the livestock thus promoting a healthy food supply.

Living here on the Gano Ranch, we have seen this directly as well as having an effect on us as these prices go up. In fact this was my main topic for this week’s Prophezine’s This Week In Bible Prophecy Show.

Watch Now - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbDntNOq3G0

We have noticed the cost of our chicken feed going up and even our dog food, which is also predominately made from grains.

With the continued cost of rising livestock feed going up, the products such as meat, diary, poultry and eggs are also going up.

Soon the rule of supply and demand will impact us. But which demand will win out? Will the demand to run our machinery win or will the demand to feed our livestock win.

No matter what, in the end, we learn that food will become scarce.

Masonic Luciferianism

By Ray Gano

Recently I wrote a rather lengthy article titled “My Name is Lucifer.” You would not believe the emails I got from people believing that I was actually making that claim. Over the next month or two I want to start delving deeper into all the cults, organizations, religions, ect that I covered.

The followers of Lucifer have many names for their god and soon all of them will wake up and realize that they all worship their “one true god.” They will also realize that they have also worshipped him throughout the ages.

When the light bulb goes off, they will realize that their “one true god” is Lucifer, not Jehovah.

When they realize that, it will be open hunting season for Christians and Jews. We know that this is a fact because scripture tells us of the millions of martyrs during the tribulation. You know what I am pointing out is true, even today you see Lucifer’s name emerging everywhere in the world.

In my recent article "My Name is Lucifer I noted that Freemasons, one of the oldest secret societies whose origins can be dated back to Babylon, utilize the symbols of the crescent moon and morning star in many of their ceremonies and rituals.

Crescent Moon And Morning Star?

You keep talking about the crescent moon and morning star, what do you mean by that Ray?

Isaiah 14:12 (KJV) How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

The name Lucifer in Hebrew is HEYLEL (read : hay-lale'). According to Strong Dictionary it means (in the sense of brightness); the morning star: - Lucifer.

The word HEYLEL in Hebrew has the same meaning in Arabic, that being the word HILAL.

HILAL in Arabic is in fact associated with the crescent moon, first developed in pre- Islamic Arabia.

Here is a simple exercise, go to GOOGLE Images (http://images.google.com) and type in HILAL and MOON, see what you get.

What you will see in many of the pictures is a very slight crescent moon that is first visible after a new moon. Muslims look for the Hilal when determining the beginning and end of Islamic months.

In modern times, Hilal was connected with the later Monotheistic deity of Allah. The worshipping of Allah is always connected to the moon, and through the eye of the Scripture we all know that HEYLEL (Hebrew) or HILAL (Arabic) is in fact one in the same.

Heylel Ben Shachar is Lucifer or Satan. And from the Scripture we also know that the worshipping of Allah is the worshipping of the moon god and also the worshipping of Lucifer.

Freemasons implement the name of Lucifer, Crescent moon / Star in much of what they do. The Shriners, which to join you must attain the level of 32 degree Mason, is steeped in Islamic / Middle Eastern symbolism. Their crest or logo is an inverted crescent moon with a star inside of it. Now the Shriners claim that these are “claws” and not a crescent moon, but we need to remember who we are dealing with, Lucifer the great deceiver. He hides in plain site and yet no one sees him.

You will note above some famous Shriners, all 32 Degree Masons, with the Crescent Moon and Morning Star sitting upon their forehead; as the Fezz (their hat) being be properly worn.

Where have you seen the name of Lucifer? Keep an eye out for the symbol of his name… The Crescent Moon and the Morning Star.

The House of Cards Begins To Crumble

By Ray Gano

Investors' Business Daily reported that from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008, Americans lost $6.9 trillion in wealth in the stock markets.

President Barack “CHANGE Obama was elected; Americans have lost some $3 trillion in wealth.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average has dropped from 9,625.28 on November 4, 2008 to 6,647.49 on March 4, 2009. The DOW is now sitting at its lowest point in almost 20 years.

Just this morning, I sent news out to our PZ Insiders telling about Citibank stocks falling below $1 and GM shares are selling for less than $2.

But that is not all.

The FDIC has asked congress for a $500 Billion “loan. If you forget, FDIC stands for Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Theses are the guys who "insure" your bank deposits.

"How much insurance coverage does the FDIC provide?
The basic insurance amount is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank."

"Deposits in separate branches of an insured bank are not separately insured. Deposits in one insured bank are insured separately from deposits in another insured bank."

Source - http://www.fdic.gov

So we are having so many banks go belly up that the FDIC needs 500 Billion more?

This is not a good thing folks, but more than that, have you noticed that the press is keeping this very very quiet about this little fact? If the FDIC needs that much money and they are tapped out, that means there are a whole lot of banks out there going belly up than the press and powers that be are letting on.

While all this is going on millions of Americans have lost their jobs. Again, just today headlines tell us about the un-employment rates

Jobless rate bolts to 8.1 pct., 651,000 jobs lost

WASHINGTON – The nation's unemployment rate bolted to 8.1 percent in February, the highest since late 1983, as cost-cutting employers slashed 651,000 jobs amid a deepening recession.

Source - http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090306/ap_on_bi_go_ec_fi/economy

People are feeling the hurt all over and not just here in the US, but all over the world.

The EU along with the EURO are also going belly up. In fact if things continue and Germany is not able to rescue the close knit EU economy, then they are looking at the Euro dissolving into nothingness.

Get this, the head of market analysis for Schneider Foreign Exchange Stephen Gallo told CNBC on March 3^rd 2009 that…

“the financial crisis will lead to the creation of a global central bank and a global single currency within 15 years”

In fact top globalists world wide are pushing for a new world financial order.

Problem is that the western countries are so far into debt they have nothing to leverage as a hard asset any longer. Even China, who Obama is now getting loans from, is demanding “guarantees” on their loans. The only thing the US has left is our land itself. Rumors have been going around on the internet about China gaining power to access to emanate domain land. Although the US Gov is saying no, what else do we have as a tangible asset?

Friends, it is common knowledge that history repeats itself.

We are in the same position as the early Weimar Republic Germany of the early 1900s. The outcome of that past event is what brought the dictator Adolf Hitler to power.

Do you know that by late 1923, the Weimar Republic of Germany was issuing fifty-million Mark banknotes and the post office had postage stamps with a face value of fifty billion Marks?

Folks, how much have you already lost? With what is left, how much do you have in your 401K?

If we were in the Weimar Republic right now, do you know that you wouldn’t even have enough to buy a stamp?

What took place during the Weimar Republic is taking place right now. The American’s savings is going up in smoke. In fact the current administration who is suppose to bring “CHANGE,” has added to that burden by TRILLIONS of dollars.

Ninety days ago your dollar had more worth, but due to the Monstrosity of a “bail out” the value of our dollar is sliding deeper and deeper into the abyss.

Sure you might have had a couple hundred thousand in the bank right then, but sad to say, it would not have even bought a simple postage stamp.

In fact many of the banks during the Weimar Republic just closed people’s accounts without notice because it cost more to purchase a stamp and send the folks a letter.

Do you see what I am pointing out here?

The highest value banknote issued by the Weimar government's Reichsbank had a face value of 100 trillion Mark (100,000,000,000,000; 100 billion on the long scale).

That is TRILLION!

How much do you have in your bank account?

It was the by product of the mass economic upheavel of the Weimar Republic that brought about Adolf Hitler.

It is clearly shown in history that only a highly charismatic leaders were be able to stabilize the currency from a FIAT system to a hard asset backed system, that being gold of silver of some other hard asset.

Folks, this is a historical fact and has been repeated over and over again since the first FIAT system in Greece 680 BC.

All the great leaders did that. They stabilized the “system,” it is what made them great. Thing is that they were dictators too. Caesar, Napoleon, Hitler, ect. It is through fascist means that they were able to come to power and the people helped them do it too.

Here are the primary elements of fascism, how many do we see happening today world wide?

Elements of Fascism include:

* Powerful idea of nationalism
* Powerful executive control in government
* Lower human rights outlook
* Military reigns supreme
* Corporations wield great power
* Idea that National Security is at great risk to some threat
* Identifying of enemies/scapegoats that unifies citizens in Patriotism
* Mass media controlled by State and Corporations
* Fixed elections
* Rampant corruption
* Unlimited power held by police force

When the US goes under, and I believe it will in one way or another, many of the other nations will follow due to the intertwined global economy.

Now, I have said all of this to make the following observation…

What caused the Weimar Republic to go under was the fact that the US was giving her huge loans to keep her afloat. When the depression hit here (the US); we called our loans in and Germany could not pay them back.

There were no other nations in the world that the Weimar Republic could borrow from, therefore their currency went belly up.

The world is currently in the same situation again, but this time it is a global issue and not one dealing with one country or another.

It would take huge sums of money backed by a solid asset to set the world strait again.

QUESTION…

Who has so much money right now that they could basically bankroll the world?

Is it the Catholic Church?

The EU?

The US?

Russia?

China?

No…even if Fort Knox was full of gold, it wouldn’t be enough to stabilize the world’s financial dilemma at this place in time.

So what is the stabilizing asset and who owns it?

Who is building man made islands off their coast?

Who has the highest building in the world with the project name “Babel”?

Who is building indoor ski resorts in the middle of the desert?

Who has so much money that in the real world dollars it can’t be truly counted?

The Answer - The oil rich nations of the Middle East.

Even with the price of oil selling at $45.00 per barrel, there is still so much oil in the ground that it is uncountable. Yea I have heard all the peak oil stories and all. I personally think it is wrong otherwise they would not be pumping fresh oil out of “dry wells” here in Texas. That is right, wells that were pumped dry all of a sudden have more oil in them. No matter what, even if oil is selling at $5.00 a barrel, it is oil that makes the world go round and those who have the oil will make the rules, that is a fact.\

I have had folks tell me that the middle east is backwards, no economic concept, ect. It does not matter. Sharia law has built into their system their own economic system and even if they choose not to go that route,which I find hard to believe, they will still have all the funds they need to put in place any system they wish to put in place and hire the people to make the system run.

Friends, it is all about power and they are leveraging the world to be the top player with all the power.

It is a fact that the world is looking for a leader that will set the world on its feet again. They are screaming for leadership. Just look at our current president when he was on the election trail. The world was wishing that he would be their president also.

Fact number two, the world needs to be stabilized. To do that, someone with huge assets; enough solid assets to stabilize the world’s economies will need to step up. This will Enable him to buy the world’s debt and re-establishing tangible assets and sound economic system.

It is history repeating itself and the FIAT currency model. What took place back in Greece 680 BC is taking place today. What took place during the Wiemar Republic is taking place today. They all have the same outcome because they are all based upon the same FIAT model.

Based upon the common belief out there, It will not come from the EU, US, Russia, China, ect.

It will be a charismatic leader who will step forward, the world will love him and then submit because they no longer want the current pain of being penniless.

Folks, scripture tells us that “HE” will come from the Roman Empire, but not the western leg as what many have been teaching. It will be the eastern leg that out lived the west by 1000 years.

Chuck Missler wrote the following in an article titled The Return Of Nimrod…

“All of us, I suspect, tend to equate the Roman Empire with Western Europe, and there have been many books suggesting conjectures involving Rome, the Vatican, and the rise of the European Union, etc.

We, too, have published numerous materials exploring these possibilities. However, all of us may have been subject to a myopia ("nearsightedness") by overlooking the fact that the Roman Empire had an eastern leg that, in fact, survived the western leg by a thousand years!”

Source - The Return of Nimrod! By Chuck Missler http://www.khouse.org/articles/2002/433/

"HE" the Antichrist is called by many names…

- The Assyrian, - Micah 5:5

- The King/Prince of Tyre - Eze 26:2

- The King of Babylon - Eze 26:7

- Pharaoh of Egypt. - Eze 29:3

These are not western names; and in fact these are known places in the Middle East.

We read scripture literally. Problem is that we have been allegorizing the literal and not standing on solid hermeneutics. We have been putting round pegs into square holes and forcing them to fit. God’s does not make thing convoluted to understand, His burden is light.

God’s does not make thing convoluted to understand, His burden is light.

Now I ask, who do they (The oil rich nations of the Middle East) worship and who are they awaiting?

They worship Lucifer.

Here is how scripture calls him…

Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

Ray, they worship Allah.

Read on…

The original name of Satan in Hebrew found in Isaiah 14 is Heylal Ben Shachar / Hilal ben Sahar

Literally translated... “Crescent Moon, son of the Morning Star” or “morning star / crescent moon,”

Who uses that symbol today?

Islam.

But more importantly, who do they await?

Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

We call him the Antichrist, they call him the Mahdi, the world will recognize him as GOD because they have been worshipping his name, The Star and Crescent Moon already for eons. Read my article “ My Name is Lucifer” at the Prophezine website for more on that.

So I ask this?

Out of all the kingdoms in the world, who else has the monetary assets that can right again a toppled world backed by a true asset and not a fiat currency?

The fact is that it is the Middle East and the asset is oil.

Scripture for told it…

Rev 17:2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

Rev 18:3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

Folks, the world is bowing to Islam.

Look at England today. They are being dominated by Islam. Just recently the British courts officially recognized Sharia law as the law of the land.

England has submitted to Islam and therefore Allah.

Africa is being dominated. East Asia has more Muslims than the Middle East. Even Russia and China are being dominated.

Look at our own nation…

On September 25, U.S. religious leaders hosted a dinner reception for one of the world’s most renowned terrorist supporters, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Who were they?

• American Friends Service Committee
• Mennonite Central Committee
• Quaker United Nations Office
• Religions for Peace
• World Council of Churches, United Nations Liaison Office

This right after his (Ahmadinejad) hate speech to the UN denouncing Israel’s right to exist. Instead of condemning the man for speaking against God’s people, so called “Christian leaders” throw a party in his favor.

It just does not stop there either.

President George Bush stated ‘That’s what I believe. I believe Islam is a great religion that preaches peace’

“President George Bush has repeated his belief all religions, “whether they be Muslim, Christian, or any other religion, prays to the same God” – an assertion that caused outrage among evangelical leaders when he said it in November 2003.”

Folks, we must be busy about the Lord’s work of sharing the gospel and the blessed hope of His soon return.

IN FACT… Muslim countries have put forth what is called, The Defamation of Religion resolution before the UN. I do not know if you realize this or not but it legitimizes the criminalization of free speech in violation of the UN's own Charter of Human Rights. It takes the human rights of an individual and transfers those rights to a system.

The UN has passed this law and it is before the different countries to sign.

So, mot only has it passed the UN General Assembly, it is a central plank in the up coming Durban II conference.

The defamation of religion resolution is no less than a…

UN-IMPOSED GLOBAL RELIGIOUS SYSTEM

AND

THAT SYSTEM IS ISLAM!!

For all you out there who keep looking at the Catholic Church to be the last days religion, you might want to rethink what is going on out there.

The foundations of the Tribulation spoken about in Daniel, Revelation and in other books of the bible are being laid at an astounding rate.

We do not know how long this will take and how long the Lord might tarry.

Do you realize that the research shows that despite the extraordinary missions efforts of the Church, three out of four people alive on the earth today still have not heard the Gospel?

If you take all the people in Canada all the way down to the tip of South America, that is how many people globally who still do not know who Jesus is, nor have EVER heard about Him!

Folks, we have our work cut out for us and we need to be busy sharing the Gospel.

Scripture says “until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.” (Luke 21:24)

How long is that? How long will the Lord tarry?

The facts are that people are going to start hurting, when people hurt, they have the ear to hear about God.

1 Peter 3:15 (KJV) But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

Being ready means just that; being in a position to share the gospel. When we are running around like chickens with our heads cut off, will we be ready?

In a time like that who are we more worried about, us or the unsaved?

Be a good steward and prepare for that day when you might make a difference in someone’s life. Joseph of Egypt did it and saved not only Egypt, but also Israel too.

It will be our acts of kindness, our standing on the truth that will make a difference. We can still position ourselves to be ready. We will have doors open to us that were not open before. People who blew us off will then listen, but we have to be ready like God's Word tells us in 1 Peter 3:15 says.

Think about it, in times of hardship that extra can of beans; the cup of flour, that fist full of rice could make the difference in an unbeliever’s life.

If mass economic hardship hits, which the symptoms are surly there, it will only be the true assets that God has put in place that will be of value.

Man’s assets loose value, God’s always gains. God’s assets were Gold, Silver, Livestock, Land, working the land, having a means to provide even if one was not employed IE a trade, home based business, ect.

NEWSWEEK - Learning to Live With Radical Islam

I find it interesting that here Newsweek is saying "You know what the west needs to do? Accept Radical Islam....." Ok this is Ray paraphrased, but start looking for more of these sort of dumbing down the masses articles painting Islam as really not that bad as we first thought. You see according to those from a liberal mindset , the real problem is ours, we just need to learn to accept these murderous thugs. Once we accept them, things will be honky-dory. That is what they want us to believe. Folks, England went that route and look at what is happening there. These pictures are from a pro-Muslim protest in England.

Why are we going to see more of these articles like Newsweek is coming out in the magazine issue dated Mar 9, 2009 ? If you did not know, the UN is getting ready to hold their Durban II conference on racism to be held April 20-24 in Geneva.

This UN meeting really has nothing to do with racism at all, but forcing the nations of the world to accept Islam under the guise of racism. Oh yea, also on the slate, the need to annihilate Israel any way they can. That is what took place at the Durban I conference, doubt the topics of discussion will change much looking at who will be attending.

If you have not noticed, what is happening today is the face of the UN is changing from a dominate western face, to a soon to be dominate Muslim face. More and more countries are either Muslim in the UN or siding with Muslim countries. The Muslim voting block within the UN is becoming a ruling force, soon they will have the majority and then will rule the UN.

There has been reports about the UN moving to Babylon once Iraq, US, UN and other countries work to rebuild her. With a Muslim dominate UN, I can see just such a thing taking place.

People keep pointing to a strawman EU and yet they are ignoring what is taking place right before them. A global one world government headed by Islam is forming right before them. They got the oil, the money, and the masses willing to kill (be-head). I believe people need to start looking towards the eastern leg of Daniel's statue, which out lived the western by 1000+ years. We need to also keep an eye on the UN again and see the eastern direction that she is going. Islam wants to bring back the glory days of the Caliphate. The UN would be a good place to start.

A Question To All Takers

I have a question to all that are willing to take this on. This is one of the many reasons I have been looking and researching Daniel's Eastern Leg vs. his Western for the past year.

Scripturally to fulfill the Biblical criteria for the fourth kingdom AKA Rome per Daniel 2:40, Rome had to have crushed the prior three kingdoms.

Here is the verse I am pointing too...

Daniel 2:40 (KJV) And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.

Like many of you, I am one who stands on the literal interpretation of scripture, therefore note the word ALL.

Everyone knows and agrees that the three prior kingdoms were Babylon, Greece and Persia.

Now, if Rome was the fourth kingdom as many have taught for the last 200 years, and they were to crush ALL like Daniel stated; why is it that Rome never crushed Persia?

Please understand, this is a historical fact. Also, please, don't take my word on this, check this out for yourself on a map.

So, if Rome never crushed Persia, then who is in error and why are we looking to the EU?

The Bible is absolute truth. According to what I have asked here, Rome did not fulfill Daniel 2:40.

If that is the case, how many people are looking to the West and possibly being deceived by the East today?

If you have an answer for me, please contact me, I am all ears. To date no one has been able to maintain a Western Leg Theory and answer this question.

A lot is going on in the world and we live in exciting times. As with us and I assume with you too, there is never a dull moment.

I am looking forward to the spring and being able to get out in the garden again.

I pray the Lord’s blessing and favor upon all of you.

My Name is Lucifer

By Ray Gano

My name is Lucifer.

I am the son of the morning.

I am the bringer of light and knowledge.

Bow down and worship ME!

In the last days we know that a one world religion will rise as a mighty phoenix. We see that taking place right before our eyes, and yet, no one is aware of it rising.

Yes, many watchmen on the wall point to the Catholic Church, New Age and even secular humanism. I did so myself, that is until I went back to read what scripture really says.

Everywhere people are pointing here and there, but they are not seeing the picture as a whole. Instead they have compartmentalized what they know into nice neat boxes with cute pat answers. People shake their heads walking off not really understanding what the Bible says.

Because of this we see many books pointing to all these different sects, different religions and movements, but no one see's the "mother of all harlots."

Here is what scripture says…

Revelation 17:5 (KJV) And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

Please read that verse again before we go on.

I want conduct a short exercise and point out what this verses really says vs. what we have been taught. Modern Christians today seems to have forgotten how to read and understand what is really there. No longer do they see what scripture really states but instead "THINK" / Interpret for themselves what it says based upon the common teachings we have all been taught. They filter what is written and see what they want to see, and not what is really written there.

When someone reads Rev 17:5, they say

"oh, that verse is talking about ____________."

The common answer many people imply for the blank is the Catholic Church, the New Age movement or some other false religion.

But they are not reading what the verse really says.

Let's really read verse 5 as it is written…

"And upon her forehead was a name written," NOTE THE COMMA at the end of this statement.

Noting the comma, it should be read "And upon her forehead was a name written… PAUSE"

Next we see MYSTERY, again note the comma…PAUSE

Continuing… BABYLON THE GREAT, … Comma… PAUSE.

THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

That is how that verse is read, so lets read it again with those things in mind.

And upon her forehead was a name written, (PAUSE)_ MYSTERY (PAUSE)_ BABYLON THE GREAT (PAUSE)_ THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

Do you see that when you read what is really there and maintain the proper context, the verse states something completely different?

I don't see the Catholic Church there, do you?

Now I know some of you are having a hard time with this because I am going against the "common thought" grain we have all been taught, but is what we have been taught what scripture really states? I have to say no.

I point this out because when ever I have asked people to read this verse and then tell me what comes after the word "Mystery," they often say Babylon. I used to do the same thing.

I ask them, are they sure? And I have them read it again.

Again they repeat the word Babylon.

I tell them a third time to look again and that they are wrong.

It is usually at this point where they see the comma and then the bells and light bulbs go off in their head.

Israel Elections – A Very Tight Race

By Ray Gano

Netanyahu, Livni declare win in Israeli election

By STEVENGUTKIN – 02-10-09 7:34 PM CST

JERUSALEM (AP) — Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and hard-line rival Benjamin Netanyahu both claimed victory in Israel's parliamentary election Tuesday, which early returns suggested was too close to call. With 67 percent of the votes counted, Livni's centrist Kadima Party had 29 seats in the 120-seat parliament while Netanyahu's hawkish Likud Party was right behind with 28, Israel's Channel 1 television said.

However, soldiers' votes on bases across the country weren't being tallied until Thursday evening, which could shift the results by a seat or two.

---

Regardless of who gets the most votes, Netanyahu's Likud Party appeared to have the upper hand in forming a ruling coalition thanks to strong showing by other right-wing parties.

---

Early this morning, many people were showing up to the polls in Israel. I get word that PZ Insiders are voting for Likud because it is the only chance in forming a conservative coalition.

It is now 8:25 PM CST and the race is still neck in neck, but the one who is winning is Bibi Netanyahu.

Why?

Because the Likud Party, which Netanyahu is head of, already is the ruling coalition.

So what does this mean?

In the US we vote for the person and then the party.

For example we like Joe Conservative of the Republican Party. So the odds are that when Joe wins, the Republicans gain another seat.

Well, in Israel it is the other way around. There they vote for the party and it is the party who votes who will be the leader of the party. How they come to that conclusion is by holding party elections much like we hold primaries.

When one votes in Israel, they vote for the party and it is the leader who then is put in charge. But to be put fully in charge of the country, they must form a majority coalition of parties and then they will rule.

No matter what happens, it looks like Netanyahu will be able to form the coalition and thus gain the power of the Knesset. He gains the power and in forming a coalition, he will become the Prime Minister, even if Livini wins the election.

See in Israel, it is the strongest coalition that wins and Likud has that already wrapped up. Livini pretty much lost even before the elections started.

Now, if all of this falls through and Netanyahu is NOT able to form a majority government coalition, then it is up to the President “Shimon Peres”. If he believes the winner of the election cannot form a coalition of 61 MK’s he will chose someone who he believes can.

Now, just to let you know, Netanyahu will be given, I believe, 45 – 60 days to form his coalition, but he will not need that long because as reported, he has already got that one in the bag.

Right now Likud has all the ducks in a row and Presidnet Peres will choose the winning coalition party to lead Israel for the next four years.

As things stand right now and as most believe it will be Likud who rules.

With almost of the world wanting Israel to disappear, Iran working to finish a full fledged nuke as fast as possible... AND the rest of Arab Block just droowling to destroy Israel, Netanyahu is the much needed choice.

He has said that he will not sit around and wait for Iran to destroy Israel. He has also stated that the days of Hamas are short.

So the Middle East will ratchet it up quiet a few notches.

The Real Crosshairs are on Turkey

We need to keep the eye on is Turkey. I say that due to the following.

Kyrgyz Committee Passes Bill to Shut Key U.S. Base

The Kyrgyz parliament's defense committee has approved a bill to close a U.S. air base that is important for coalition operations in Afghanistan.

The committee's support Monday brought Kyrgyzstan a step closer to evicting U.S. forces from the Manas base.

So why is this important you may ask.

We have only TWO air force facilities in Central Asia that being the Manas base in Kyrgyzstan and the other one located in Karshi-Khanabad AB in southern Uzbekistan to the north east. The American grasp on these bases are waining.

That will leave us only two air bases in Central Asia Minor and both of these bases are in Turkey.

Now the bases in Manas and in Uzbekistans are currently leased from their respective governments, along with some hefty aid packages, benefits, etc. In fact Kyrgyzstan’s contract with the US says they have to give us 6 months to vacate. 6 months is not very long.

Another obvious point, both of these areas are also Muslim strong holds.

If things continue upon the current path, tensions will rise and we will be asked to leave these two bases. Fact is that Muslims do not like Americans, even if we have tons of cash and Wal-marts. Soon that will not matter anymore, they will no longer tolerate our western mindset any longer and demand that we leave. Folks, the writing is on the wall.

These countries are to the North East of Turkey and when these are closed to America, Turkey will be the only strategic air bases we have.

The Turkish government gave us a lot of heat about using Incirlik AB for staging and refueling for the Iraqi campaigns. Adana AB, the second of the two is located in southern Turkey. These will be the last two strong holds America will control, the our hand around these bases are slowly slipping away.

With our hand slipping away, our presence will no longer be there.

Since our presence is no longer there, we will no longer have any real strategic points in the Asia Minor / Middle East Theater.

This does not bode well with Israel, our strongest ally in the Asia Minor / Middle East Theater. This leaves Israel exposed to Turkey, Iran and the rest of the Middle East.

Since Israel’s war in Gaza, relations with Turkey, Israel’s closest Muslim ally, have become extremely strained.

With Netanyahu gaining the PM Office, it will likely escalate.

Turkey has been rejected by the EU, they are also playing the middle man in many of the Middle East “peace” talks. It will not take much more pressure for Turkey to finally embrace their past and once again seek out their Muslim allies and push for a global Caliphate which once ruled from Turkey and the Ottoman Empire. The cherished glory days of old are being remembered and Turkey is turning her face to Mecca and not the West.

Netanyahu will not cut deals. If he does, he is out. If he is forced to go to war, he will also not have the full US capability that the US once had if the bases are forced to close. Israel will be basically standing alone with slim support from the US and possibly England. But with England going Sharia Law, hope from that front is waning.

I feel the out come of all of this may surprise many.

More to follow.
