Countdown To The Apocalypse

11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

13And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Revelation 13: 11-18.

After analyzing all the current events, I come to the conclusion that this is the beginning of the end.

First there was the failure of Nationwide, the large mortgage lender.

Soon, Bear Stearns had liquidity problems during the sub prime mortgage crisis.

Then there was the bankruptcy of Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, the two major home lenders.

Afterwards, the demise of Lehman Bros. and Merril Lynch, two major investors in the NY Stock Exchange; Soon afterwards it was AIG, the huge international insurance conglomerate that had to be bailed out by the Federal Government.

Then a triage remedy was suggested by the White House, The Treasury, and the Federal Reserve: They suggested a $700 Billion bail-out (emergency cash injection) plan to resuscitate the failing economy.

Last week, the latest salvo to affect the long held tradition of the free-enterprise system that we have all come to accept as the American way of life. A plan to invest in major banks to ensure that they continue to thrive in the face of the current "global" credit crunch, was suggested by President Bush and his financial advisers (Paulson and Bernake). They followed up this week by pumping $250 BILLION into U.S. banks.1

Washington Mutual and Wachovia also became insolvent and were promptly bought-out.

Presently, Bank of America (The Jesuits own fifty one percent of Bank of America, the Vatican owns stock in hundreds of banks all over the world)2, and Citibank are among the few banks that are prospering and expanding under the current economic turmoil.

All these abrupt changes and major adjustments to the American economy, are indications that the restrictive laws that will deprive God's remnant people can not be too far behind.

The financial turmoil is leading us toward the beginning of the end.

The days in which we live are solemn and important. The Spirit of God is gradually but surely being withdrawn from the earth. Plagues and judgments are already falling upon the despisers of the grace of God. The calamities by land and sea, the unsettled state of society, the alarms of war, are portentous. They forecast approaching events of the greatest magnitude. The agencies of evil are combining their forces, and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.--Testimonies, vol. 9, p. 11.

We will not be able to buy or sell. God's faithful few will be deprived of sustenance; We will not be able to hold a job, have a bank account, or shop for food. We will only survive with the protection of God's mercy, and the help of His Holy angels. We will live by faith as Elijah once did.

Can we see how the framework for such a "global" embargo is being put in place right before our eyes? This global economic collapse may be the event that starts the end-times prophesied.

May the Lord allow us all to watch and pray, and remain true to His will.

Arsenio.

Maranatha,

The King is coming!
