Conspiracies
do exist, but there are a lot more of them predicted than actually arrive and
bother us.
This
discussion came to me as a result of my growing burden over all the bad news which
has not happened according to latter day prophets inside of, and outside of, the
Lord's Church.
I
shall discuss a number of things, secular and sacred, which have not happened
as predicted. But first, here is an item which came in, honest, as I was
thinking about this.
So,
it seems the Lord wants it to lead the article, for these blathering fools have
not learned their lesson. After you later read my article of a series of
no-show prophecies, I shall delicately and right vigorously rub their noses in
it.
Charismania's
list of coming horrors and revivals--
(Naturally, they were gotten "by revelation" :-)

'Prophetic
Elders' Look to Youth Revival, Warn of Russian Invasion
Joint
statement calls churches to urgent prayer for new millennium
by Andy Butcher
A great youth revival, churches
so big they have to use stadiums to fit all their members and people being raised
from the dead are among dramatic developments Christians have to look forward
to in the new millennium, says a group of leaders widely accepted as modern-day
prophets.
But
there will also be more persecution of the Jews, a possible Russian invasion of
Alaska, the threat of a second Great Depression and an increase in the number
of natural disasters, warns the group in a "corporate prophetic word" just released
after a meeting at the World Prayer Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Called the Apostolic Council
of Prophetic Elders, the group gathered under the leadership of C. Peter Wagner,
an internationally recognized authority on prayer and spiritual warfare and one
of the founders of the prayer center. Among those present were Chuck Pierce, Dutch
Sheets, Cindy Jacobs, Mike Bickle and Tommy Tenney.
Schools
in America will be "shaken for the glory of God" by a great youth revival, they
agreed. But churches must be ready, or they will miss the move of God. Older Christians
must be prepared "not to criticize them if their hair is Technicolor and they
have body piercings or tattoos.
God
himself will change their hearts, we must not let false legalism drive them away."
Some churches will grow so big they will "fill stadiums for their celebration
worship services."
The
growth will come from a new signs and wonders movement that will be "significantly
greater" than that seen in the days of the post-World War II healing evangelists.
Healing centers will be built around the world, devoted to praying for the sick
and casting out demons. "One of the distinctives of this movement will be raising
the dead," said the group. "This will break barrenness off the church and such
great fruitfulness will result that whole cities will turn to Christ and be transformed."
The start
of a "great harvest" of Jews will be followed by their escalating persecution
in Russia late next year as part of "the devil's strategy to precipitate another
holocaust." It is vital Christians pray about this-- and for the breaking of famine
in Russia because "if we fail to do so, we can expect an invasion of Alaska by
Russia for the bounty of Alaska."
The
group also said that a fresh holiness movement will spring up in American churches.
"If this does not penetrate the entire fabric of American society, God will once
again shake the economy of this nation as in the Great Depression."
A special emphasis is being
placed on the Northeast for revival by the Holy Spirit. "It is God's desire for
a mighty move of the Holy Spirit to fall on Washington, D.C., and that true revival
will touch our government." The call to prayer also warns of physical, financial
and governmental shakings.
"Muslim
nations of Eurasia will form an alliance with the nations to their north for political
and military purposes. Pray that God will keep open the doors for harvest."
The group's statement was
released after they met in Colorado at the end of last month. The council formed
to provide a corporate forum for leaders with a recognized prophetic gift was
born out of a similar gathering at the prayer center in January.
At that time the group--
which included many of those who met last month-- warned of terrorist attacks
killing people on American soil if churches did not pray fervently.

Comments
on Prophecies which did NOT Come to Pass: By Steve Van Nattan
Since
we have now seen that these guys are not one bit self-conscious over their past
prophecies which did not come to pass, and since prophecy comes fast and furious
from all quarters, from Edgar Cayce to Benny Hinn-- It seems good to review
a number of prophecies which did not happen:
1.
The Russians (I.E. Communists) are coming. This
is perhaps the largest comedy of the past 50 years. Conservatives AND Liberals
used it whenever they needed to terrify people or justify a new Military build
up to give the economy a jolt upward. As it turns out, the Russians never
were a threat to the US and Europe. Many fearful legends exist of how the
Russians were just ten minutes from blowing up someone, mostly you and me, and
you should give me your tax money so I can protect you. According to Ezekiel
38-39, Russia has no interest in anything other than Israel as we come down to
the last days.
For
the exorbitant cost of the Cold War, and for practice diving under your desk in
third grade when the nuclear war siren went off, all we got for our money and
terror was a two hour movie from Hollywood.
The
movie is a hoot, and it is clean. You can boy it at Amazon Prime. You need to
show it to your grandkids when they ask you what the Cold War was about. I feel
like suing for my tax money back. All those missiles and B-52s we paid for, and
all we get is a flick. Do watch the movie..... the best comic relief of the whole
20th Century.
2.
The Chinese will take over the world. Other than
Genghis Khan, the Chinese conquered nothing in over 5000 years. They have
indeed had some terrible leaders, but these leaders punished and tortured the
Chinese-- mostly. And, nothing has changed. China has NEVER had the might
to make one dent in the US defense. Forget it. Furthermore; China
is destined to join the kings of the East and march against Israel, NOT the USA.
If China destroyed the USA they would lose their biggest market place, and they
are too smart to do that. As long as Chinese junk is flooding into Wal Mart, we
are safe.
3.
We ("we" applies to whoever tells it) are all going to be locked up in concentration
camps. This is the most novel and
absolutely insane of all modern panic tales. It just is NOT true. All
of the photos I have seen are easily debunked without even visiting the site.
AND, the site itself will destroy the myth if you just walk up and ask the
guys what they are doing. I know, I did so at Fort Huachuca, a major "concentration
camp" point on all the groupies' maps. I have been all over that Army post.
There is NO camp there, and they are busy right now tearing down a
whole lot of buildings which would make a great concentration camp.
4. The
Feds are everywhere and taking over the country. This
one is partly true. The Feds are everywhere, and you better be thankful.
Two things apply:
One,
most of you are too lazy and leisure-loving to do for yourself what the Feds are
doing for you. So, stop bellyaching and appreciate them.
Two, the world
"over there" is over here now. Bin Laden can blow up tall buildings at ease.
Mexicans and Central Americans by millions are trying to get into the USA
to find a better life. Criminals now come here from all over the world and
start all sorts of ethnic Mafia type trades and prey on you. So, the Feds
are busy trying to stem the tide.
Bad
lawmen have been a scourge ever since the USA existed. Wyatt and Virgil
Eerp drove southern Arizona mad as they terrorized both the bad guys and the good
guys. They were finally run off, and Arizona has been pretty peaceful ever
since. It all passes in time, in spite of what Texe Marrs may have told
you.
5.
UFOs will soon land and forces from Jupiter will invade the world. This
one has been around since the early 1950s. They have not here yet. There
are circles in wheat fields, steers mysteriously are castrated and left to die,
objects fall from the sky, and the loonies see alleged UFOs dive into the Bermuda
triangle and come back out dripping with blood. Help yourself. There
are even a bunch of preachers who have bought into this insanity. It remains
just as shadowy as ever, and the forces hiding on the posterior of Jupiter are
staying there as far as we can tell.
6.
A great revival is breaking out worldwide. There
have been dozens of Revival prophecies and reports. TBN hatches the majority
of them, but all Charismatic leaders try one now and then. The craziest
one was the report of millions of Muslims in North Africa being saved. Of
course, on one wanted to travel the Sahara Desert to prove them wrong, so the
myth prevailed. The alleged "prophetic elders" in the report at the beginning
of this article made such claims of course.
The
subtle factor in revival predictions is that these things give the prophet the
air of authenticity as a Gospel preacher. He is associated with the saving
of souls. The interesting thing is that these creeps don't go evangelize
anyone-- They predict someone else will go. The pain of you who let these
wolves cuddle you is that you get their fleas. Then you wonder why the rest
of us stand back. Go figure!
7.
Healings will soon happen everywhere. Benny
Hinn is the latest with his claims that the dead will be raised by being carried
to, and planted in front of, a TV while Benny is blowing off gas. This is
the kind of thing the masses in Charismania want to hear, so the Word of Faith
boys give them the legends to believe. This kind of claim is not the real
thing. The real thing will be seen as "signs and wonders" done by the Beast,
at the call of the False Prophet. Now, that will be prophetic fulfillment.
I sincerely hope you miss the real thing though.
8.
The Church will soon be destroyed. This
is the prophecy of those who want us to believe that the Church of Jesus Christ
is under siege so badly that it will simply go away. We will all be left
alone with no friends. Paranoia is the product, and there are a lot of lonely
Christians who are ready to believe it. Satan loves this message because
it makes believers give up and stop trying to find fellowship.
9. Christians
will soon be massacred. Jesus said
that this era would end like the days of Noah and Lot. Both men were delivered
from their day quite safely, and in Noah's case we read NOTHING about persecution.
In most areas of the world where the Church is found, there is no persecution.
Life is good for the ungodly, and the saints suffer only from loneliness
and the usual stress of living life in the world of sin.
10.
Christians will soon take over the world. This
is the Reconstructionist model of the End Times. There are a few, like Bob
Ross, who are trying to live in a Fundamental Baptist world and, at the same time,
they imagine they will soon take charge of the world. Dream on groupies.
11.
Sin is out of control. This
line prophecies that the whole world will fall into unrestrained sin. I
suggest that some of these boys WANT to have it that way. They secretly
lust for sin to be more visible to satisfy their own lusts. Well,
2 Thessalonians 2:7 tells
us, For the mystery of iniquity doth
already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
So, sin will not take full charge, and Satan will not have
it all his way, until the Holy Spirit is removed in the saints. Until we
are gone, things will not progress to the extreme.
12.
Earthquakes have increased. There
was a prophet named David Smith who put out a newsletter in which he had Tesla
coils in the Antarctic, manned by Russia and the USA jointly, which could pound
any part of the world with magnetic energy and change the weather and wreck havoc.
This fellow also told us the whole Missouri River Valley was about to be
destroyed by the biggest earthquake in history, and so he move to Texas. The
earthquake didn't come. Now, I can see some virtue in moving from Missouri
to Texas, but find a better cover story, OK?
As
to the notion that earthquakes are on the increase, there are thousands of earthquakes
in the world every year, and the numbers are NOT going up according to Creation
Institute of Research in San Diego. Every point on earth could have an earthquake
according to scientists in the field. The earthquakes of the End Times,
like the other terrors, will not begin until the Bride of Christ has been removed.
So, you may experience an earthquake, but not a prophetic one.
13.
Israel is awakening to the Truth. True,
but the geniuses picked Rabbi Schneerson as their Messiah. He was very old
when they got onto this notion, and he soon died. They now imagine he will
be resurrected. Is this some sort of resorting to truth by Israel? Please
wake up and read your Bible. The Jews are in unbelief, and they will stay
that way until the two witnesses of the Great Tribulation preach their message.
You won't be here to see it unless you are not born again.
14.
Unity will be accomplished by next Friday. The
prophecies of the unifying of Christendom are just cheap and safe bets that the
Great Whore is coming together in our day. This mob is part of the Great
Whore, so it is classic damage control to spin a yarn about this unity being the
work of God. Nice try, but the Bride of Christ knows who the Whore is.
15.
The ungodly are greatly impacted by Christendom's antics. There
are many TBN and 700 Club stories about how many ungodly people are being restrained
by the Truth and by Charismatic frenzy. One of the first legends they patented
came to us in the 1970s when they started binding Satanic princes in various cities.
Now, they bind and exorcise devils and high classed demons all over the
globe. You cannot prove they don't really have this power because the demons
are invisible. So, they have their 15 minutes of fame.
16.
The Rapture will come soon. Is
the Rapture account in the Bible a blessed hope, or a frantic frenzy? To
a faithful Bible believer, the Rapture of the Lord's Church is not a thing to
date, and it is not the main point of our lives today. Being faithful to
the end is the main event. Those who major on the Rapture have traded preaching
the Gospel for Revelation conferences. Do you want to know why? I'll
tell you. The Rapture is in the future and not very convicting. Revival
is based on ME getting convicted for my sin and getting right and back to the
work of Christ and his Church. Which one do you think is most popular? :-)
17.
Money and Stock Market collapse is coming. You
have to understand this-- The Federal Reserve decides when and how we have
prosperity and economic collapse. If they vote for one or the other, you
may be sure it will happen. Until the Great Tribulation this will be the
status quo. Smart people will stop trying to soothsay the future of economics
and see if they can posture themselves so that they too can benefit from the designs
of the wicked. Watch the director of the Federal Reserve, and you will soon
be able to move to stocks, bonds, or Mutual Funds at the propitious moment, and
it won't have a diddly thing to do with prophecy.
18.
Executive Powers Act-- For
many years now we have been warned that soon the President will sign the Executive
Powers Act and turn America into a Socialist Dictatorship. Well, it has
not happened. Furthermore; if it ever happens, it will be the result of
a crisis, and many of you will CALL for this in order to get the nation back to
order. Mark this down and check me out in ten years. IF it happens,
it will be called for by the masses.
19.
Militia. We hear a lot about
the Militia taking over America soon. This is the prophetic word from Satan's
Liberal troops. They are trying to frighten all Conservatives into the middle,
if they won't go clear over to the left. This is not working out too well
either. The Militia is run through with drunks and bigots who cannot think
or plan ahead any further than their bulbous nose, nor can they form a united
front. There will be no revolution. People have to be made discontented
to revolt, and life is VERY good in the USA right now.
20.
Kahutec, Alignment of Planets, and Asteroids. We
are now hearing all the time about how an asteroid barely missed the earth. Why,
it passed a mere 9 million miles from us, and that is a near miss. Well,
I am not an astronomer, but as I see it, this asteroid nonsense is more astrology
than astronomy. There IS a "star" which falls into the sea in the Great
Tribulation, but until then you may count on God not allowing any celestial confusion
to take the glory away from His plan.
Do
you recall how Jack Van Impe told us Kahutec was going to trigger the Tribulation
events? He did it again when the planets all lined up a couple of years
ago. What a laugh. And some of you still buy his videos. Ugh!
21.
The Roman Catholic Church will take over the world. Are
you aware that the Roman Church is desperate to get enough priests to man all
their churches? Right, and they are disgraced all over the Catholic world
by corruption and pedophiles. Priests are doing all manner of maverick tricks
on the Pope. Some are almost acting like Protestants, while others are rank
Marxists. And, have you been told that this is by design? Yes? Well,
that is a lot of bunk. I have met a handful of these rebels, and they are
definitely on their own. The Whore simply has to look the other way, for
to sack them would make matters much worse. In fact, I expect the next Pope
to make celibacy optional. The actual Whore of the End Times is NOT just
the Roman Catholic Church. The Whore is united world religion, and that
is now stirring itself up.
22.
Destruction of America as a prophetic event. America
is not in Bible prophecy. If and when America collapses, it will be because
America will go the way of all nations as they become degenerate. It happened
to many cultures which were not mentioned in the Bible, and it will happen to
America. It is not the business of the Lord's Church to rescue America.
It is our task to call men to Christ, and a collapsing America may well
provide us with many souls due to times of sorrow and trouble.
23.
The Islamic world is soon to be converted. During
the 70s, some yo yo from Melody Land prophesied that the Holy Spirit would soon
fall on the Muslim world. No mention was made of salvation. Hmmmmm-- Strange
Gospel and even more strange prophecy. Recently, "Jesus mosques" have popped
up all over North Africa and in Indonesia. They are Muslims, but they pray
to and read about Jesus at the mosque. They are NOT born again, but the
TBN gang imagines they are a great new wave of victory for the Lord. Bah!
Beware of wolves who make such claims.
24.
The Great Paradigm Shift is Coming. This
is a New Age term and concept. But, I am amazed at how often I hear it from
Evangelicals, and on rare occasions from Fundamentalists. New Paradigm speaks
of a shift in body, mind, and spirit for the whole human race. By most accounts
in New Age thought this will be accomplished by drastic physical events in the
earth and in human relations. While New Agers scream on behalf of the dear
horned owls and the rain forests, they speak in clipped clichés about people
being eliminated in the Paradigm Shift. And while some, like Ruth Montgomery,
will allow for Bible believers to receive some mercy, other more doctrinaire New
Agers, like Shirley McLaine, call for the massacre of the saints.
The transition to the year
2000 was widely expected to be the big moment. Well, it ain't necessarily
sooooooo :-) The Great Pyramid was to figure in, and George Bush Sr. was
to be the keynote speaker. A gold cap was to be put on the top of the Great
Pyramid to somehow radiate the cool vibrations better, and a zillion Hindus were
to come from all over the world to dedicate the next era to the gods. It
never happened folks. Old Georgie boy stayed in Houston as far as I know,
and the Hindus gathered around their various curry pots and broke chapati together--
back home in the courtyard in Bombay and Benares. Not to vorrie-- Ve got
plenty New Paradigms in the go down.
25.
This is the Dawning of the Age of Aquarius. This
is similar to the one above, but this is more an astrological event, as it was
called in a popular song about 20 years early. True blue, or violet, alchemists
and space cadets were furious that the song talked of the "dawning of the age
of Aquarius" too soon. The age should be on us now with the 2000 year landmark,
but I haven't noticed much happening in the groupies' Web sites. A new and
large minded guru is needed to fire the troops up, and Elizabeth Clare Prophet
might be the candidate. She has mastered the art of mixing the Roman Catholic
Mary cult with the earth gods and goddesses, and she has added a bit of old fashioned
blood and guts gun toting for the Militia side of the aisle. Watch for more
soon, but please don't worry much-- 2000 is here and Aquarius is out to lunch
it seems.
26.
Worldwide famine, including in the USA. Well,
I haven't noticed. India, a beggarly nation in the 50s and 60s, is now doing
a net export on cereal grains. Life is improving in all Middle Eastern countries
and many in Africa, at least between revolutions. The USA is still paying
farmers not to farm. The UK is pretty silly in the way they are trashing
more and more farm land, but they will not starve as long as the Germans and Hollanders
slip them a bit of butter and beef from time to time. South America is shipping
huge supplies of beef and cereals to the whole world. China is feeding its
people vastly better now than when I was a kid.
When
Johnny won't eat his turnips, and Daddy says, "Think of the starving children
in China," Johnny has a very hard time to keep a straight face. Those Chinese
kids are getting down right fat, and Japanese youth are monsters now beside their
parents due to McDonalds over yonder in Tokyo. World famine? Not lately.
Not until the Great Tribulation and Satan's planned famine. For the
time being, capitalism prevails worldwide, er well, except in Cuba. But,
old Fidel is busy trying to rewrite the definitions of socialism right now.
27.
One day you will see people living on the moon and at bottom of sea. Do
you remember back in the 50s and 60s when you went to the school library and the
Popular Mechanics and Popular Science showed the artist's representations of life
on the moon and at the bottom of the sea? HA HA!! Out here in Arizona
we have a cute high tech toy called "Biosphere." It cost millions of dollars.
It is a mini-world with seas, deserts, forests, and farms-- all within a
big sealed dome. People sealed themselves inside and were planning to live
there for several years as I recall. Well, in a very short time they were
having to have outside help to survive. Molds went wild, and the glorious
ideal atmosphere got rancid. Also, their social graces were taxed badly
as the men involved had a crisis deciding who would get to use the services of
the ladies involved.
Ah,
the glories of man made heaven. They finally had to abort the thing,
and now it is a tourist attraction where gullible space cadets can pay a fat fee
to wonder through a make believe nether world. But do buy your ticket to
the moon groupies. It may even happen one day.
28.
Longer life is here. And it
is true-- We do live longer. AND, as Moses said in the Psalms, with a lot
of trouble. But, those stories of stopping the aging process are still myths.
In fact Hillary and the gang are all trying their best to kill everyone
they can-- mostly unborn babies and the aged. What irony-- Give longer life,
then kill them early. The heart of man as far too deceitful and desperately
wicked to allow for any progress in long life.
29.
Hate and war will be eliminated by the "Global Village." This
myth is being bolstered by the United Nations, Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, and other
One Worlders. Ironically, the same people who wail for more love and less
hate are the very ones who start most of the wars these days. Of course,
these are wars to stop war and hate :-)
Saddam
Hussein could have been snuffed long ago with a well planned and well financed
hit at him from within Iraq. But, that would not be a very good conditioning
experience. A big world uniting war is far more effective, and after the
war, there is still fearless leader to grab and try at the War Crimes Tribunal.
Media hype and hubris in large portions to all man. Thus there will
indeed be more wars and rumors of wars, as Jesus prophesied. That is one
prophecy that is coming true, and the Great Tribulation hasn't even started!
30.
Prepare for Global Warming, Global Ice Age, and the end of the rain forests.
This is a riot folks. The earth
is going on doing just what it has done since after the Flood of Noah. Winter
and summer, seed time and harvest-- cool winters and warm winters, and the planet
God called home to us humans is just as pleasant a place as it ever was. In
fact pollution is down, and the number of trees is greatly increased since a hundred
years ago. The rain forests, which added a net of zero oxygen to the atmosphere
in the past, are now actually ADDING oxygen to the atmosphere since they have
been replaced by managed forests. Things are really looking pretty good
if you don't listen to the prophets of doom inside and outside of the Lord's Church.
31.
Overpopulation is overtaking us. I
haven't noticed. Populations are shifting around, and Kenya is increasing.
But, Americans are killing their babies in the womb, killing hundreds of
thousands with tobacco and medical over drugging, and euthing them in old age.
So, the net gain is negligible. Did you ever wonder who is the authority
who counts the world's population? Well, there is NONE. The thing
is a guessing game, and the Liberal One World mob does the alleged counting. Each
Developing Nation wants to get more bucks for their folks, so they all over estimate
their population. Even in the US and Europe, counting of people is hampered
by social pressures to be either over or under accurate figures.
I wish to therefore enter
my estimate of the world's population. Why can't I be just as reliable
at this? I have been around a bit, and I have some pretty good contacts
around the world. So, here it is. There are now 2.6 billion people
on this earth. Prove me wrong if you can, but you must count them YOURSELF.
At the Blessed Quietness Earth Counting Institute here in Arizona, we do
not accept statistics from those who did not do the actual counting themselves.
Why do YOU believe them? :-)
32.
The World is being ravaged by disease. Well,
of course it is. That came with the curse bunky. But, as to apocalyptic
pestilence, there is no such thing. That day of run away disease will take
out two thirds of the earth's population before it is over, and we have seen nothing
like that. So, take an aspirin, go to bed, and see if you feel better when
you wake up. Oh yes, and BURN all those Texe Marrs books. The smoke
from them is poisonous too, so stay upwind as they burn.
33.
Terrorism is out of control. When
did you ever see an act of terrorism? I have seen a Marxist coup, but I
had to be in Ethiopia at the precise right moment to do so. Don't waste
your life trying to duplicate my experience. For $20 I will write it down
for you, and you can save a bundle on airline tickets. Even with old Ben
Laden paying the bills of the resident terrorists in the USA, when did you ever
run into the acts? This has not happened, and it won't until the second
horseman of the Apocalypse rides forth, and peace is taken away from the earth.
If you are so unblessed as to be here then, well I suppose you will get
your money's worth of terror if that is what turns you on. I for one will
be at the Marriage Feast of the Lamb.
34.
Grid lock. Back in the 50s
and 60s we heard from Walter Crockite that we were headed for gridlock, both on
the motorways and in the sky. Look up bunky! :-) Where is it?
And please notice that the highways are rather busy around the civilized
world, but nowhere near gridlock. Walter is a crock! Furthermore;
this prophecy is classic racist bilge. The assumption is that if there is
gridlock in Los Angeles, the world has come to a stop. Well, bunky, the
Pygmies in the Congo are doing just fine. The footpaths of the Ituri Rain
Forest have not come close to gridlock.
We
White Racist Anglos have the notion that if we have a serious problem in some
area of life, the rest of the world is supposed to stop and suffer in subservience
to our pains of the moment. This stupid emotion is childish in the extreme
and shows just how silly the White Race has become in the post colonial era. This
is also why more and more Whites are moving to the developing world to retire
and work. They have found out that there ARE problems associated with alleged
civilization which are optional if one is willing to move 10,000 miles east or
west. Hmmmmmmmm.
35.
Fuel will soon run out. Oh? What a fearful prophecy
that was when we heard the CBS and NBC stiff necked commentators tell it in the
60s and 70s. Ironically, the dried up continental shelf wells off the coast
of Louisiana are coming back in at nearly the same rate of flow as when they were
first drilled. HA HA HA!
There
is a prophetic myth, one hard to disprove by us flatlander laymen, which says
that consumption depletes resources which will never be replaced. Well,
take comfort, and tell Al Gore to shove off, for the primal resource, though it
is technically running out by the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics, is
in fact going to be producing for some time to come. You see, ALL resources
on earth depend on the sun for their first cause. Even atomic energy is
produced by machines which were manufactured by the resources of solar energy.
So, take courage friends, Until the Lord Jesus shuts off the sun during
the Great Tribulation, you are safe and snug on the earth He created for you,
and you have my permission to ignore the talking heads on TV. Enjoy.
36.
Everyone is getting poorer. The
real problem is that we have re-defined poverty. We now mean this-- "I am
poor because I don't get to have all the things I want." All you silly children
who bellyache about your alleged poverty have microwave ovens, computers, two
or three automobiles, leisure time, two days off a week if you want it, and all
sorts of food right throughout the year. AND, your parents had none of these.
You have pensions and medical care which your grandparents could not have
gotten with any amount of money. AND, you complain.
There IS something prophetic
about your whining though. You sound like the folks in Sodom. Note
please-- Ezekiel 16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity
of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in
her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and
needy. Please think about Sodom the next time you join in a conversation
in the company break room (your grand daddy didn't get breaks on the WPA!!!).
And, stop this stupid prophetic talk regarding inflation. Inflation
is not prophetic, it is the result of greed, and that has been with us since Cain
thumped Able on the head because he was trying to devalue the sacrifice to God.
37.
Music is going to the dogs. Sure
it is, if you listen to the garbage on the radio. But, bunky, how about
the stuff YOU listened to in the 60s.
"I
told the witch doctor I fell in love with you-- I asked the witch doctor
to tell me what to do-- And then the witch doctor he told me what to do--
Well he said, 'Eeee, Ahhh, Uhhh, Ahhh, Ahhh, Ting, Tang, Awallah
wallah Bing Bang......"
Or
did you sing along to,
"Uuuuga
Uuuuga Mushka, which means that I love you. If you will be
my baby, I'll Uuuuga Uuuuga Mushka you..."
That
was supposed to be Eskimo. Well, you older folks sang more mature stuff,
right-- long before the prophetic slide into the abyss of rock music.
No,
friends, the prophetic end is not here yet. You see, blue grass, that music
of Irish and European origin, is on the rise. There have never been as many
banjos selling as there are today. Millions of kids are taking piano lessons,
which is on the increase, and classical music is selling by the box car. In
the USA? No, in China and Russian and the world in general. Again,
it is the White Race primarily which has its musical mind in its groin. The singer
of choice in Kenya is Jim Jones. Music is alive and well if you just turn
off the radio and find it elsewhere.
38.
Nakedness prevails. This assumes
that the USA and Europe are the only model for clothing. Well, all over
the world, naked pagans are getting dressed.
We
lived in the bush country of southern Ethiopia with the Arussi people. Foreign
embassy people would come down to camp out by the lake on which we lived. When
the Swedish embassy folks came camping, they took all their clothes off and ran
around naked. Swedes are beasts and jerks my friends, with few exceptions,
unless they are born again Christians. Well, our Arussi neighbors came around
and asked us, "What is wrong with these European people? They have all that
a person could want-- automobiles, many clothes, all manner of things for comfort.
Yet they run naked." Well, we used those Swedes to warn our Arussi
neighbors that modern people who have wealth are still sinners without Christ,
and we cautioned them to be very slow to adapt to modern ways.
Again, it is the White Race
primarily which is taking off their clothes and mating in the streets. Move
to Tonga. Life is still restrained there, and they dress the same way they
did long ago.
39.
People are getting more sinful. No
they aren't. People have ALWAYS been sinful. Nothing has changed.
The world will not really be more openly wicked until the Holy Ghost
is taken out of the world as the saints leave to go be with the Lord. Here
is God's comment on the human race in about 3500 BC. Genesis
6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
3000 years later, Jeremiah
turned in his report on the topic: Jeremiah 17:9 The heart
is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
So, there is NO prophetic moment under consideration when one of these
late great prophecy "experts" claims that man is getting more sinful. I
do wonder sometimes if this conclusion is being made by people who are trying
to make it sound like we just cannot avoid sinning. Hmmmmmmmmm.
40.
Sodomites will rule the world. Not
if you don't let them. It is assumed that sodomites prevail, and the decent
folks cannot stop it. Well, in Tombstone, Arizona if a sodomite outs himself,
he also risks getting a thumping. Some cities have caved in to sodomites,
and they have them running their lives. MOVE! Again, the White Anglos
of the Lord's Church assume that the whole world is giving way to sodomites. The
Cayman Islands are not. Tonga is not. Much of China is not. Uganda
is not. Prophecy was not written as if the USA would be the bellwether of all
life in the End Times. So, if the USA turns sodomite, and Sweden and the Netherlands
want a sodomite nation, so be it. Again, MOVE! There is nothing in the Bible
which says you have to stay in the USA and subject your kids to sodomites. This
is not prophetic. It is historic. As nations collapse, as the USA
is, they turn queer in many ways, not just sexually.
41.
World religion is all consuming. Not
until "strong delusion" sets in. 2 Thessalonians
2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should
believe a lie: I
have met Catholics who are not impressed with ecumenism. I have customers
who don't give a fig about ANY religion. They will need to be given "strong
delusion" by God to convince them to even take an interest in religion and a world
religious leader. People all over the world often have a token god of some
variety within their strategy of life. But note the End Times religious
atmosphere. Romans 1:28 And even as they did not
like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind,
to do those things which are not convenient; We
are not there yet.... close I admit, but not enough to welcome in a One World
religious savior. So, you are wasting your time trying to figure out who
the Antichrist is.
42.
We are all being poisoned and used in experiments. Who
do you know that has been poisoned by the Feds? The only one I ever heard
of was a loonie Baptist preacher who also thought that Yannis and Greys were after
him. He got thumped on the head in a car accident, and the Feds have been
after him ever since.
I
have read dozens of accounts of Federal and Military attempts to poison and disease
Americans. Well, if this were a plot happening, pray tell me, what kind
of idiot Military officer would participate? He would make absolutely certain
of his destiny in shame, and possibly in prison, if he helped. Also, what
Federal agent would think he was helping the cause by killing off and diseasing
the tax payer who paid his salary. Some whistle blower would eventually
speak up. These prophets of doom come up with a plot every time some researcher
spills a cup of coffee. Some things are NOT planned. Some eggs are
laid cracked. People DO make mistakes. Even YOU do, right?
43.
The Military is corrupt. It
always was. Then again, it always was NOT. There have always been
God fearing men in the Military. They are given orders to kill and conquer,
and often the orders are motivated by wicked thoughts in high places, but the
men who carry them out are not always willfully given to that mind set. Are
they responsible for their actions? Napoleon, who demanded blind obedience,
still insisted that an immoral order MUST be disobeyed, even when the consequences
were not nice. So, the Military is corrupt in this regard, yet these men
are often not nearly as encumbered with evil as their counterparts in civilian
life. For one thing, their show runs with or without a net profit. This
means they are not as driven by the almighty dollar as are other men. They
also are expected to retain some honor as they carry out their task.
The lower the rank, the
more degraded the person in the Military. So, the potential for great evil
is much greater amongst politicians and bankers then Military leaders. It
was Colin Powell who finally convinced Bill Clinton not to queer the Military.
No one else could convince Billy Boy. So, when the prophets tell you
that the Military will soon be turned on us, be very skeptical. It would
take a very great crisis to convince the Army to leave the barracks and take Walmart.
44.
Taxes are out of control and too great a burden. That
is true in many nations, but in most of the Western world, the way of life of
the average man and woman is patently comfortable. Would life be better
if corrupt money grubbers were not in power? Yes, but please note-- the
taxed people elect the tax collectors. Also, taxation is the way the good
life comes your way. How do you imagine the great highways and autobahns
would be built if you didn't have "public servants" in your place to build them.
It really gets old to have to listen to the groaning of the upper middle
class about taxes.
In
Kenya the average man pays very little tax, and many of the nomads of the Northern
Frontier and Masaii land pay no tax. But, I wonder if you Western wonders
would care to live the life those people live. Not likely. Taxation is not
prophetic, nor is it a harbinger of anything. It is just there. If
you want to make a net gain on taxes, go to Las Vegas, gamble away all your wealth
but $100, go around to a pawn shop and buy a cheap revolver, blow your brains
out, and the state of Nevada will bury you-- probably even with a grave marker.
There is a sure fired net gain! (Not a bad pun I trust :-)
45.
Capitalism is being destroyed. Well,
you might think so in the USA and the UK, but it is mostly because the populace
is trying to figure out how to get a free lunch from the tax base. Even
farmers in the USA are on the dole with payments not to farm and produce milk.
But capitalism is alive and well in Eastern Europe and China. Russia
is coming along well, and the Ukraine and Georgia are roaring with capital gains.
You see, when the bankers want to make a profit and encourage deposits,
they turn people loose, and they give us a capitalist to vote for like George
Bush and George Bush. After Dukakis dragged Massachusetts into rank socialism,
the people hired a Republican capitalist, and the state leaped forward. The
same happened in Michigan, and even Liberals are guardedly speaking well of Governor
Engler. Then, when the higher powers see us having too much fun, the Fed
raises the prime interest rate, and we all run and get food stamps, or the equivalent
of that.
There
are still thousands of capitalist schemes available to anyone who is willing to
venture forth and work hard at it. The Internet is a late new marketplace
of unbelievable potential, and there will be others by and by. The prophets
are mostly socialists at heart and want to live on the offering plate. If
you sent the average prophecy conference speaking out to do a little venture capitalism,
he would be on welfare in 60 days. Mark it down. So his perspective
on capitalism is to denigrate its future so as to ease his lazy bones on down
the road to the next collection plate.
46.
Russia will one day rise up and rule the world again. How
is it going so far :-) Ezekiel 38 and 39 says they come down against
Israel with horses and hand weapons. Pretty advanced, eh? I really don't
care to labor this one. If your favorite prophet says this, and if you believe
him friend, well then, I have this really nice bridge in Brooklyn that I can sell
you for a real bargain.
47.
The Arabs are buying up America. Really now? Or,
is the UK the biggest investor in US land? Answer: Yes! Arabs have
NOT bought up America like we were told in the 70s. They just don't need
the pain of White Anglo Saxons who refer to them as "sand niggers." I had
a preacher in the Detroit area who claimed to be a KJV Fundamental Baptist use
that term on the Arabs. Now, why would any Arab want to invest in a country
where he will be treated that way? Furthermore; if the Arabs did buy up
the USA, it would have nothing to do with Bible prophecy. If you think so,
what proof text would you use? Huh? Huh? Hey, I can't hear you.

Everything is moving from lower to higher forms of existence. This
is Darwinian of course. The Second Law of Thermodynamics, which is NOT based
on blind speculation like Evolution, states the opposite. This prophecy
is hatched by scum like Jaques Monad and BF Skinner. It has NOT worked out.
Everything still runs down. No matter how hard we try to make things
better and better, the garbage man comes around twice a week and hauls away the
rubbish generated by our latest efforts, right? Go see a municipal garbage
dump. These monuments to entropy ARE getting a bit too prevalent I think.
And, the fact that we cannot escape them is instructional. In fact,
the paleontologists and Leakeys of the world dig where? In very old graves
and garbage dumps (Read that again please :-) Yet they tell us that we are
beating the cosmic system. Not lately.
50.
We are the master of our fate, the captain of our soul... So,
why all the suicides by the cream of society? Why all the crime? Why
all the killing and war? Why all the rat hole religion? I'll tell
you why. Man, as his own master, is an abject disaster, and that is how
it has always been.
A
classic example is Bill and Hillary Clinton. Hillary called for the village
to raise our children. She would have queers and pedophiles contribute to
the process, as well as you, the biological parents. How has her program
been going? Well, Bill and Hillary are perhaps the most filthy and depraved
family in America. No woman I have ever seen, who was so photographed by
the press, has more cold and cobra-like eyes then Hillary. Bill is a sexual
dog. These are the pinnacle of the "masters" of America's fate, AND you
picked them TWICE. But guess what? In the Bible Bill and Hillary had
predecessors-- Ahab and Jezebel were perfect carbon copies of Bill and Hillary.
And, they were just as hopeless as Billary at mastering their souls.
Then there is Jesse Ventura...........
Oh, that is enough, don't you think?
And,
did you hear Heidi Cruz is suing Ted for a divorce?
Conclusion:
Please
do not think I am unaware that there HAVE been conspiracies throughout the years.
There have been many. But, the real plots that fizzled are many also. This leaves
a handful of real ones, but you will not have the sense to distinguish a real
conspiracy from an imagined one if you let yourself be suckered into chasing every
alleged story that that terrorist of the Internet, Alex Jones, screams in your
face.
The
sun came up this morning, warmed the soil, sent the bees flying, and set in peace.
And, it was a good day here at our house in the Hill Country in Texas. I realize
that there were people today who suffered, and some were badly used by evil men.
But, there was no trend in it which was prophetic my friends. Prophecy is ONLY
fulfilled if, and only IF, it lines up 100% with biblical prophetic forecasts
which have not yet been unfulfilled. As in, "It came to pass..."
The
1948 return of the Jews to make Israel a nation again, and the 1967 war of Israel
and the Arabs, were classic prophetic events. The gradual rise of world religion
is setting the stage for the Whore system, but no one day yet signals a great
event in this march to the future. That landmark prophetic day of doom will only
come when God allows one evil man to be filled with Satan and take over the world.
And
look here now, the true Bride of Christ will be GONE when that happens. So,
your task is that of Philadelphia in Revelation 3. Keep the Word of God. Stop
lusting for a day of great events and terror.
Do
you know the last time "peace" is used in the Bible? Watch this: Revelation 6:4 And there went out
another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take
peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given
unto him a great sword.
So
keep your eyes open for the PRINCE of peace. Stop trying to figure out who
is the Beast!

WEIRD
AL YANKOVIC ON CONSPIRACIES
LETTER
FROM A READER:
Subject:
ME AGAIN From: Jay Crosby To: steve
Reading
the excellent summary on false prophecies, the problem as I see it is one of accountability.
Rev.
Hairspray predicts the end of the world. There isn't much time left, so to make
sure the word gets out he writes a book.
The
predicted date comes and goes, a la "88 REASONS," "1994," etc. Then what?
Editor:
Steve Van Nattan-- I have to add: The preacher in Las Vegas called for 1988 as
the date. He apologized for not counting right, forgetting the zero between BC
and AD in his calculation. His second booklet predicted the world would end in
1989. After 1989 passed, he closed shop and crawled away into a hole somewhere,
probably a mansion in Malibu.
And
he answers to NOBODY on this earth for what he has done. And the people "love
to have it so."
I
remember in the late 1970's when Hal Lindsey was all the rage for his book in
which he describes a "generation" as being 30 years. Ergo, since Israel was re-established
in 1948, 1978 would be the time of the end.
When
that failed, Lindsey merely revised his conjectures, declaring that a generation
could be 40 years. Now, it could be 100 years.
I ask What is the difference between the prophecies of the poor, blind Jehovah's
Witness and the prophecies of Hal Lindsey? Only a false church produces false
prophets. You ma quote me on that one.
