OUR EVER INCREASINGLY CHAOTIC WORLD PROVES THAT THE END OF THE AGE IS FAST APPROACHING!
Many people have been astounded and perplexed by the frequency of massive earthquakes that have been occurring in the past couple of months. In fact, today's massive 8.8 quake in Chile is being declared by experts as was "one of the strongest ever measured in the world".

During the time of the devastating 7.0 earthquake in Haiti last month there was an ongoing swarm of earthquakes in the Yellowstone caldera (super volcano) that was not widely reported. This "Yellowstone earthquake swarm that began on Jan. 17 and ended on Feb. 11 was the SECOND-LARGEST swarm ever at Yellowstone National Park, according to scientists at the University of Utah. During the swarm, there were 1,805 tremors of which 22 were felt by people in the park as well as adjacent communities in Montana and Idaho."
The Yellowstone caldera measures about 34 miles by 45 miles. "The loosely defined term 'super volcano' has been used to describe volcanic fields that produce exceptionally large volcanic eruptions. Thus defined, the Yellowstone Super volcano is the volcanic field which produced the latest three supereruptions from the Yellowstone hotspot.". According to scientists, the Yellowstone supervolcano is past due for an eruption.

In relation to the recent drastic increase in seismic activity, "Fox News quoted Stephen S. Gao, a geophysicist at Missouri University of Science and Technology, as saying. 'Relative to the 20-year period from the mid 1970's to the mid 1990's, the Earth has been more active over the past 15 or so years, We still do not know the reason for this yet''."

However, we can know the reason for the "earth being more active over the past 15 years or so" as well as what is behind the current huge spike in earthquake activity and intensity. The explanation for this increased seismic activity may be found in Matthew 24:7 in which Jesus warned that at the time of the end of the age that there would be "earthquakes in various places". Notable is that in the past 18 hours while documenting this, there have been 47 earthquakes of magnitude 5.0 or greater. There have been six earthquakes magnitude 6.0 or greater, one magnitude 7.0 and one 8.8 magnitude with locations ranging from Japan to Chile to Argentina. To my knowledge, this degree of such strong earthquakes within such a short period of time is unprecedented.

Astonishing evidence that the Lord is coming soon is we how we can actually see how He is putting things into place for His end time plan: NASA is saying “Quake Shifted Earth's Axis, Shortened Day”. As the earthquakes continue they will increase in intensity and more frequently as with labor pains. I perceive that these increasing earthquakes will continue to cause the axis to shift and thus, continue the days to be shortened.
Mark 12:20 Unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the sake of the chosen ones, whom he picked out, he shortened the days.
God’s chosen ones are the children of Israel and the upcoming Tribulation period is His method to finally bring them into reconciliation with Jesus Christ as their Messiah. It is for their benefit that the Lord has begun the shortening of the days.

Matthew 24:3 .the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" 4 Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,]' and will deceive many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and EARTHQUAKES IN VARIOUS PLACES. 8 All these are the beginning of BIRTH PAINS.
I have been avidly studying Bible Prophecy for 10 years now. Never, have I seen everything just falling so perfectly into place and there has arisen an urgency in my heart that makes me feel that God may be prompting me to share these many incredible signs of the times. The Lord put the desire and love of His prophecies in me for a reason. Perhaps it is "for such a time as this" as with Esther:
For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?" (Esther 4:14-15).
It may be just coincidence but Purim, which celebrates the salvation of the Jews because of Esther's obedience, happens to be this weekend.
There have been some recent developments in the realm of Biblical Prophecy that I feel obligated to share. Most of the general public is totally unaware of what is actually transpiring “behind the scenes” as the media at large is not sharing all the facts.
What is so mind boggling is that much of the new insight regarding this jaw-dropping information is contrary to what all Bible prophecy scholars and students have thought for all these years. I think that God may be revealing this right before the time these events will come to pass.
Please note that in Biblical times the cities were walled as the walls were needed as protective devices to hold enemies and siege armies at bay, and offered safety to the inhabitants of the city. However, most people did not live inside the protective city walls. The culture of that day was agrarian. Most people grew their own crops, ranched their own animals, and ran their own farms. The city was strictly a commerce center. It was large enough to house the palaces and courts of government, and provided a market center for the trade and sale of good and products. But most people lived outside the city on their local farms.
To extend a blanket of protection over those people living beyond the immediate safety of the city walls, the governing authorities would place watchmen to stand on the walls of the city and to keep a wary eye focused on the horizon in order to spot the dust cloud of an advancing army. Once they saw the dust cloud, they would sound the alarm. People, hearing the alarm, would quickly gather food and provisions and hurry to the city.
Ezekiel 33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.
Therefore, as a watchman for the prophetic fulfillment of the signs of the return of Jesus Christ for His Own, I would be not only remiss, but also held accountable if I did not share what is looming on the prophetic horizon for the all the inhabitants of planet Earth.
Jesus wants His people to be aware of and watch for the signs of His return as it gives us the urgency to ready not only ourselves but also reach out to the lost. The Lord gave us these signs of His coming not to scare or alarm us, but to the contrary, to prepare, encourage and comfort us.
In John 14: 1-3 our Lord told us to “not let your hearts be troubled” because He has gone to prepare a place for us and is coming back to get us so that we may be with Him. In verse 27 He reiterates to us to not “let your hearts be troubled” as well as “do not be afraid“ as He has given us His peace. The Lord is reassuring us that we need not be fearful regarding His return.
In fact, knowing the signs of His coming can help give us His peace as we see the world scene destabilizing because we know it is all in His perfect plan. We can be comforted as we see this chaotic, spinning out-of-control world, knowing that He will be soon coming for us as He promised. So, instead of fear, seeing the signs coming to pass should give us hope, excitement and joy knowing just how very close we are to seeing our Lord and what He has prepared for us!
1 Corinthians 2:9 Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
We are instructed in Hebrews to meet and encourage each other " all the more as you see the Day approaching". If we are not watching, we cannot see the Day approaching in order heed the dictates of this Scripture. Jesus gave us these instructions for us to gather together so that by our fellowshipping we can exhort one another to operate in the Spirit as it is only by His Spirit that we will be emboldened to proclaim His Gospel and the nearness of His return.
Hebrews 10:25 Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
We are told in Revelation 3:3 that if we do not watch, He WILL come upon us a thief and we WILL NOT know the hour when He is coming. To the converse, if we ARE watching, He WILL NOT come upon us a thief and we WILL know the hour of His coming:
Revelation 3:3 Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not WATCH, I will come upon you as a thief. and you will not what hour I will come upon you.
In 1st Thessalonians 1 5-6, we are reminded that "the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night." Next, we are given end time signs to watch for: "While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape." Then, we are told that we are "not in darkness" meaning that since the prophetic Word gives us so many end times signs to be on the watch for, that we are not being kept "in the dark" as to God's end time plans. Therefore, if we ARE watching, the Day of the Lord WILL NOT surprise us a thief in the night. Lastly, if were are NOT watching, it is as if we were asleep as in the virgins that were sleeping when the “bridegroom cometh” in the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins:
1 Thessalonians 5:1But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us WATCH and be sober.
Matthew 25:1 Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.6 “And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming ;go out to meet him!’ 7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. 11 “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ 12 But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’13 “WATCH therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
At this end of the age, we need be watching and operating in His spirit as the Spirit is the oil in our lamps that enables us to be ready for His return.
In Luke 21:28 we can see that If we are not watching for the fulfillment of the prophetic Scripture, then we will not be able to know "when these things come to pass" so that we would know when to "look up, and lift” our heads; for our “redemption draweth nigh."
Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
In Luke 21:36 we are commanded not only to watch but also to pray that we may be counted worthy to escape the wrath to come, and stand before the Lord, Jesus Christ:
Luke 21:36 Watch you therefore, and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Therefore we need to be diligently watching for the signs of our Lord's return as He instructed. This study that I am sharing is based on interconnected topics and purely on facts that provide clear evidence that His return as near, even at the door.

If any information presented appears to have any conspiracy theory flavor, it is evidently because not all conspiracy theories have been fabricated and imagined. The facts stand for themselves-I am just piecing them together and connecting the dots.
To begin with, I will give some background information that will lead up to the major new development in the end times interpretation of Bible prophecy. I want to reiterate that all the following information is factual as evidenced by the substantiating links to websites and videos. Any conjecture on my part regarding the sequence of these events is plainly noted.
The modern day nation of Israel is nothing short of a miracle. For 2000 years the Jews were scattered throughout the world, yet had retained their cultural identity and religion when God restored the Jewish people back to their ancient homeland just as was prophesied:
Ezekiel 11:16-17 Therefore say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.
Therefore say, Thus says the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
Amos 9:14-15 I will bring back the captives of My people Israel; they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them: they shall make gardens and eat fruit from them. I will plant them in their land, and no longer shall they be pulled up from the land I have given them," says the Lord your God.
On May 14, 1948 the Jews declared independence for Israel as a united and sovereign nation for the first time in 2,000 years. During that same day, the United States issued a statement recognizing Israel's sovereignty. And, only hours beforehand, a United Nations mandate expired, ending British control of the land. During a 24-hour span of time, foreign control of the land of Israel had formally ceased, and Israel had declared its independence, and its independence was acknowledged by other nations. Modern Israel was literally was born in a single day just as prophesied:
Isaiah 66:8 Who ever heard of such a thing, or saw the like? Can a country be brought forth in one day, or a nation be born in a single moment? Yet Zion is scarcely in labor when she gives birth to her children.
Only one day later after Israel became a nation, armies from Lebanon, Syria, Transjordan, Egypt and Iraq invaded. With only 600,000 people in the infant nation, the odds seemed overwhelming. Yet they not only survived, they triumphed, and by 1949 armistice negotiations began that would ensure the existence of the Jewish State.
Since their independence in May 1948, Israel has fought six wars, two intifadas, and a continuing terrorism threat and intermittent diplomatic isolation.
The nation of Israel has survived against all these odds as she is God's chosen people with whom He has established an eternal covenant.
Genesis 17:7 And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you.
Genesis 12:31 And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Just this month, Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu proclaimed that modern Israel was the fulfillment of the prophet Ezekiel's vision of the valley of dry bones:
Ezekiel 37:12 This is what the Sovereign LORD says: O my people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the LORD have spoken, and I have done it, declares the LORD.'
http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/insideisrael/2010/February/Netanyahu-Ezekiel-37-Fulfilled-in-Israel/
Please note it is this prophetic fulfillment of the formation of modern day Israel that began the prophetic time clock. All end time events and the seven year Tribulation itself are to reconcile God's chosen ones of Israel to their Savior, Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach. The generation that saw Israel, the fig tree, become a nation in 1948 is nearing its end as the 70 year Biblical generation that saw Israel's rebirth in 1948, will culminate in 2018. That, in itself, is key to show how very near we are to the end of the age.
32"Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. 34I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.
Shockingly and completely out of the blue, in the past year or so it was divulged that not only the American economy but the whole world's economy was in dire straits with insurmountable debt that has been amassed. The amount of debt that continues to rise is unsustainable and will eventually lead to global economic collapse.
The total collapse of all international economies will eventually be the pathway to initiating a global economy and global government. A one world government would, of course, necessitate a one world leader. This appears to be setting up for the one world government of the prophesied antichrist, who would lead it.
The United Nations is now even advocating that the dollar should be replaced with a global currency. This proposal would be the biggest overhaul of the world's monetary system since the Second World War. One can only imagine what this would mean for America as we know her.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/currency/6152204/UN-wants-new-global-currency-to-replace-dollar.html
"Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the head of the International Monetary Fund, suggested this past Friday that the organization might one day be called on to provide countries with a global reserve currency that would serve as an alternative to the U.S. dollar." It is my opinion that the replacement of the dollar would indicate the coming of a one world currency.
This global currency would be the foundation for the Biblical mark of the beast to be implemented where "no man can buy nor sell, save he that had the mark." We need to keep our eyes on the above posturing towards the replacement of the dollar, which would lead into a global currency, the necessary ingredient for the mark of the beast.
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
http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory?id=9958995
As discussed, the dollar would have to devalued to warrant replacement with a global currency. It is my opinion that the current administration is purposefully indebting America with the goal to destroy us economically. That would culminate with the total devaluation of the dollar which would allow a global currency to replace it. Therefore, their spend, spend, spend and tax, tax, tax is intentional to cripple us financially.
Ultimately, this would also lead to where Americans would lose freedoms if we are devastated economically. We then would be rendered powerless and thus, dependant on the government.
Prophetically, it appears as though the Healthcare Reform Bill will be forced through and passed against the will of the people. The government would then control 1/6 of the American economy. It would then also be empowered to dictate how and if and when we can receive medical care. If they control our health care, they control us.
Included in the Healthcare Bill there is actually verbiage that could provide for the eventual mark of the beast, RFID microchipping of Americans: "The Obama Health care bill under Class II (Paragraph 1, Section B) specifically includes ''(ii) a class II device that is implantable."
http://animalsclubfreedom.typepad.com/animals-club--freedom-national-org-inc-non-profit/2009/11/coverage-under-obamacare-require-an-implantable-rfid-microchip.html
Explanations of the RFID microchip are elaborated upon here:
http://www.arewelivinginthelastdays.com/road/healthcare.html.
Verichip corporation is the maker of this "implantable device". "VeriChip is the last Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved human-implantable radio-frequency identification (RFID) microchip. It is marketed by VeriChip Corporation, a subsidiary of Applied Digital Solutions, and it received United States FDA approval in 2004. About twice the length of a dime, the device is typically implanted between the shoulder and elbow area of an individual's right hand.[1] Once scanned at the proper frequency, the VeriChip responds with a unique 16 digit number which could be then linked with information about the user held on a database for identity verification, medical records access and other uses. "
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VeriChip\
As noted in the above link. Verichip RFID's. have a 16 digit number to link it with databases for such uses as medical records access. During his presidential campaign, Obama campaigned with one of the programs that he was most vocal about, implementing being: " TO INVEST IN ELECTRONIC HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS" (a.k.a. electronic medical records).
www.barackobama.com/pdf/issues/HealthCareFullPlan.pdf
As alarming and surreal as it seems, there is even a commercial advertising for RFID microchipping of the populace:
http://industry.bnet.com/pharma/10004909/verichip-tv-ad-confirms-critics-fears-they-want-everyone-implanted/?tag=content;selector-perfector.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDhDrFrs7as
It is shown in the link to the above commercial for the RFID microchip that the Verichip is used for accessing medical records, electronically. The provisions for implantable RFID devices contained within the hotly contested Healthcare Reform Bill appear to indicate the method by which Obama plans to implement his proposed "electronic medical records” agenda.
In November 2009, the makers of the Verichip implantable RFID merged with Steel Vault, the premier provider of identity security products and services, including credit monitoring, credit reports, and other identity theft protection services." After this merger, in an apparent effort to portray a “positive” image, they renamed themselves. Their new company name is "Positive ID". This new use for the implantable microchip paves the way for it to be utilized for tracking of not only individuals but transactions. This enables the microchip implant to link our health records (as in Obama's proposed electronic medical records) credit history and social security.
http://www.blogger.com/goog_1269209650390
http://www.steelvaultcorp.com/press-release-october-08-2009.htmlp
Further expansion of the use of the implantable RFID microchip in the general population is elaborated in the below linked article, dated February 24, 2010. It relates how the embedded chip company, Positive ID ( Verichip) has just partnered with FIS.
FIS is "the world's largest provider of banking and payment technology servicing more than 14,000 financial institutions and businesses in over 100 countries worldwide. FIS provides financial institution core processing, and card issuer and transaction processing services. FIS maintains processing and technology with 40 of the top 50 global banks, including nine of the top 10." Thus, Positive ID can/will be used in all the above worldwide financial entities, that are the main brokers of global buying and selling (a.k.a. banking and payment).

Revelation 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark
Cashless electronic financial transactions are integral to this new system (as in, buy or sell, via their implantable "Positive ID" microchip). The company's stock shot up 55% after the announcement of their recent merger with FIS, as the far-reaching uses for this implantable device continue to rapidly branch out in all directions.
http://www.rttnews.com/ArticleView.aspx?Id=1221026&SMap=1
The implantable RFID is also the method of implementation for the GS1 which is a not for profit organization sanctioned by the United Nations. The purpose of the GS1 is to execute their “’GS1 Global Traceability Standard’ which requires everything produced for any use be tagged and identifiable via varying means, from bar-coding to RFID chipping traceability standard that states the system must incorporate real time identification of PARTIES, items, and events that have had a relationship with the product within its life.“ According to the standards of the GS1, parties refers to any individual involved in production, shipping, sales, or purchasing of a product.
Thus, the GS1's Standards mandate that all parties/people involved in consumerism are required to be microchipped in order to adhere to the U.N.'s Global Traceability Standard
The "GS1 also claims 2010 as the year full implementation and operation is to begin, and again GS1 is ahead of schedule. The provisions within GS1 cover all aspects of business. There are still a couple of sectors where work needs to be done for this to be achieved. One of these is the healthcare industry." The highly debated Healthcare Reform Bill has provisions to make the healthcare industry in compliance with GS1 standards.

It is notable that this year, Virginia and Georgia have both enacted legislation banning forced chip implantation by employers or insurance companies to implant microchips in their bodies against their will.
"Mark L. Cole (R-Fredericksburg), the bill’s sponsor, said that privacy issues are the chief concern behind his attempt to criminalize the involuntary implantation of microchips. But he also said he shared concerns that the devices could someday be used as the “mark of the beast” described in the Book of Revelation."

Many Europeans are already starting to become desensitized regarding the concept of microchipping the populace. One out of every four Germans polled want embedded microchips for the benefits it would provide for “shopping” and “emergency services to rescue them more quickly in the event of a fire or accident.’ (a .k .a electronic medical records).
http://www.ioltechnology.co.za/article_page.php?iArticleId=5373851&iSectionId=2890
Dr. Carl W. Sanders is an electronics engineer, inventor, author and consultant to various government organizations as well as IBM, General Electric, Honeywell and Teledyne. He is also a winner of the Presidents and Governors Award for Design Excellence. He also happens to be the inventor of the implantable RFID microchip.
"Dr. Sanders, with a team of engineers behind him, with U.S. grant monies supplied by our tax dollars, took on this project and designed a microchip which is powered by a lithium battery rechargeable through the temperature changes in our skin. Without the knowledge of the Bible...these engineers spent one and a half million dollars doing research on the most effective and most convenient place to have the microchip inserted." After extensive research, it was concluded that the forehead and the back of the hand are not just the most convenient place but also the only viable place for rapid, consistent temperature changes in the skin to recharge the lithium battery. The microchip is approximately 7mm in length, .75 mm in diameter, about the size of a grain of rice. It is capable of storing pages upon pages of information about you. All your general history, work history, crime record, health history and financial data can be stored on this chip.”
http://www.angelfire.com/la2/prophet1/cstmny.html
Following is Dr. Sander's own explanation of this project: " This project culminated in the microchip that we talk about now a - microchip that I believe is going to be the positive identification and mark of the beast. This microchip is recharged by body temperature changes. Obviously you can't go in and have your battery changed every so often, so the microchip has a recharging circuit that charges based upon the body temperature changes. Over one and a half million dollars was spent finding out that the two places in the body that the temperature changes the most rapidly are in the FOREHEAD (primary position), right below the hairline, and the back of the HAND (alternative position). Working on the microchip, we had no idea about it ever being an identification chip".
Dr. Sanders has since become a Christian and now believes that "this microchip which he regretfully helped design is the 'mark' spoken about in Revelation 13:15-17"
Revelation 13:15And 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.

Just like the leaders of the world are now out in the open about plans for a global currency, they also are now actually openly speaking about a one world order as a "global alliance".
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/janetdaley/6845967/Therell-be-nowhere-to-run-from-the-new-world-government.html
There is a very real possibility that our Congress and president will forcibly pass the Healthcare Reform Bill even though it is in direct opposition to the will of the majority of Americans. A current CNN poll reports that only 18 percent of Americans want the current legislation passed into law. If this legislation is passed and the government controls our medical care, then it will control us.
The following is an excerpt from a review by a constitutional lawyer regarding the proposed Healthcare Reform and how it will further empower the White House.
"Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated. If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been destroyed." I submit that the reason that our president is so vehemently pushing his Healthcare Reform is because the legislation is actually designed to "transfer massive power" to the executive branch.
http://michaelconnelly.viviti.com/entries/general/the-truth-about-the-health-care-bills
Americans will never willingly give up our sovereignty and our freedoms and this is problematic for those working on instituting a one world order. Therefore, the freedoms and rights of Americans will have to be removed as they are an impediment to the goal of a one world government and in time, a one world leader (antichrist).
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/02/24/cnn-poll-health-care-provisions-popular-but-overall-bills-unpopular/?fbid=fxviJV7tMXN
I further deduce that this Healthcare Reform is mainly about removing our liberties in order to facilitate the transition to a one world government that will eventually be headed by the prophesied antichrist. Additionally, it will serve as a vehicle for eventual mandatory microchipping of the population initially under the guise of "electronic medical records" access.
Not widely known is that there is bill, already overwhelmingly approved by the House, that would empower the president to have absolute control over the internet. "Early reports predicted the cyber security measure would allow the president to ‘declare a cyber security emergency,’ online privacy groups said they felt that would endow the White House with overly ambiguous and far-reaching powers to regulate the Internet.”
It has been revealed that “the bill will still contain most of those powers, and a ‘vast majority’ of its other components ‘remain unchanged,‘ an aide with knowledge of the legislation told The Hill. But both the aide and a handful of tech insiders who support the bill have nonetheless tried to dampen skeptics' concerns, reminding them the president already has vast — albeit lesser-known — powers to regulate the Internet during emergencies."
Therefore, at Obama's discretion, he could declare a "cyber security emergency” and have the entire internet shut down, thus shutting down the flow of information to we, the people.
My perception is that this would remove the American citizenry their ability to communicate with and to alert one another if need be as well as a violation of our free speech. This is just one more maneuver towards total control, advancing us towards the dictatorship role that the antichrist will assume.

Please note, I am not attempting to make any political statements with my preceding interpretation. Regardless of the political parties involved, the dots would still be connected the same way as it is solely the facts that I am connecting them by.
There are so many amazing details that I felt necessary to include to properly set the stage for where we are in God's end time plan. Please remember that I will this is strictly my interpretation from Biblical prophecy as it aligns with current events.
Now, I will delve into an astounding new insight that has just recently come out in regards to the Psalm 83 war against Israel. As I previously mentioned, I believe that God may actually allowed this to be revealed now, right before the time it will come to pass.
Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end, when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase.
Of course, we know that in today's world that many rush here and there with our modern transportation and technology. It is a well known fact that knowledge is increasing exponentially so we know that this has to pertain to the here and now of our modern era.
In order to fully understand the following information concerning the coming Mideast War please see the below detailed website that explains how it appears that there will be a Psalm 83 war in which Israel regains most of her original Covenant land after decimating Syria and the other members of the Psalm 83 coalition-
http://www.arewelivinginthelastdays.com/road/mewar.html
This war may also be the fulfillment of Isaiah 17:1 The burden against Damascus- Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, And it will be a ruinous heap.
Please note the Damascus is the oldest inhabited city in the history of the world.
It has been appearing for awhile as though Israel and Iran would to war because of Iran's nuclear development. According to previous understanding of end times events, the war of Gog of Magog (Ezekiel 38 and 39) would ensue as a result of this conflict somehow.
Ezekiel 38:11 "And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates"
Eschatologists (those who study Biblical prophecy regarding end time events) have long puzzled at how Gog -Magog War could occur however due to the Ezekiel 38:11 reference to Israel being at peace and without walls when they are attacked by Gog of Magog.
Realizing now that there may soon be a coming Psalm 83 war, it is all evident now what may transpire. As a result of the Psalm 83 War, victorious Israel will no longer be bordered by her enemies as she will own all the land. Israel will then finally be at peace which has never happened since her inception in 1948. Therefore, the 403 mile wall that Israel has built in recent years to keep out the Palestinian terrorists, will no longer be needed. Israel will finally be dwelling safely and at rest, without the need for walls.
The end result of this Psalm 83 War, wherein Israel is finally dwelling peacefully, makes way for the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38-39 War (Gog-Magog).
Please keep in mind the players in the Psalm 83 war in relation to current Mideast events:
Psalm 83 Coalition:
Tents of Edom = [decedents of Esau] Palestinian Refugees and Southern Jordanians
Ishmaelites = Saudi Arabians
Moab = Palestinian Refugees and Central Jordanians
Hagrites = Egyptians
Gebal = Northern Lebanese
Ammon = Palestinian Refugees and Northern Jordanians
Amalek = Arabs South of Israel
Philista = Palestinian Refugees and Hamas of Gaza Strip
Inhabitants of Tyre = Hezbollah and Southern Lebanese
Assyria = Syrians and perhaps Northern Iraqis included
Children of Lot = Moab and Ammon= Palestinian Refugees and Central and Northern Jordanians
Note that Syria and Israel have been spouting war rhetoric for weeks now. From my understanding, Syria and Iran made a pact to be allies against Israel in any military conflict around one year ago. The following link is of recent threats from Syria towards Israel as of February 22, 2010.
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/feb2010/mercer223-1.htm.
There are recent "reports that Lebanon was blasting large areas of rock near the Lebanese-Syrian border to build a staging area for the deployment of Syrian tanks, presumably in preparation of Syria getting involved in what we can be sure is on the horizon, another military conflict between Israel and her enemies." So, at present, there is great tension with both Lebanon and Syria, in alliance with Iran, toward Israel.
http://www.rapturealert.com/2010/022010ruinous.asp
As of February 26, 2010 Syrian President Bashar Assad hosted Hizbullah head Hassan Nasrallah as well as Iranian leader Ahmadinajad for dinner in Damascus on Thursday night. The trio of terror-supporting leaders denounced Israel and America and discussed ways to aid “resistance groups.” This said aid is intended to go to the Palestinian terrorist group, Hamas, who now controls the government of Gaza
.
As of February 21, 2010 It was reported that "Iran steps up training of Hamas retaliation force Iran has increased exponentially its training of Hamas gunmen both in the Gaza Strip and abroad, a senior Egyptian security official told WND."
The official said "Iran believes there will be a confrontation with Israel this year over Tehran's nuclear facilities and has thus stepped up training of Hamas, whose gunmen will be instrumental in carrying out retaliatory attacks against the Jewish state during any future war. "
http://www.blogger.com/goog_1269209650451
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/136220
Note that both Syria, Lebanon and the Palestinians (Hamas of Gaza) are in the Psalm 83 coalition. Egypt and Jordan who are also listed in the alliance would probably join into the fray once the conflict begins.
Notable is that Syria, who now has the pact with Iran to go against Israel is now saying: "If Israel Attacks Iran, Syria Is Likely to Fire Tens of Thousands of Missiles at Israel, Some with Chemical and Biological Warheads."
http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2457079/posts
So, according to this threat, Israel will be attacked with weapons of mass destruction (WMD) from Syria if Israel strikes any of Iran's nuclear sites. As named after Samson in the Bible wherein he killed himself in destroying his enemies, Israel has the "Samson Option". This is the military strategy wherein Israel would respond with massive retaliation according to the "alleged deterrence strategy of massive retaliation with nuclear weapons as a "last resort" against nations whose military attacks threaten its existence, and possibly against other targets as well"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samson_Option.
This means Syria would be utterly destroyed if they attack Israel with WMD's and Damascus, the oldest inhabited city in the history of the world would be a "ruinous heap". Damascus is the headquarters for the major terrorist organizations. That in itself is sufficient cause for the fulfillment of Isaiah 17.
Likely scenario- Israel does a pre-emptive strike against Iran in light of the fact of their recent admittance to being a "nuclear nation". As Iran's ally, Syria begins strikes against Israel as they are threatening to do above. Israel would then be forced into the Samson Option because of Syria's use of WMD.
In 2007, Israel had bombed Syria's nuclear plant in order to prevent Syria from gaining nuclear weapons. Israel knew Syria would use it against her as soon as the weapon was completed (as will Iran). Sometime in the last month there has been intelligence that North Korea has begun military shipments to Syria. So, Israel is also aware that Syria is probably restarting her nuclear program with the aid of North Korea.
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/181252
On February 24, 2010, an Iranian website threatened that "Iran's possession of nuclear weapons will threaten Israel's existence and lead to its elimination - even if they are 'never used" This is very ominous- is Iran indicating that Israel will be “eliminated”" but not by Iran's WMD, but by Iran's allies: Syria, Lebanon, the Palestinians and the other Psalm 83 members?
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/181252
Iran said on February 22, 2010 that "it plans to build two new uranium enrichment facilities deep inside mountains to protect them from attack" This may be Iran's attempt to incite Israel to take action while the nuclear targets are penetrable.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35520698/ns/world_news-mideastn_africa/
As of February 25, 2010, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Arab nations will usher in a new Middle East "without Zionists and without colonialists. He also said Iran, Syria, Iraq and Lebanon will stand against Israel. This sounds as if the Arab nations are in definite collusion to destroy Israel and are trying to prod her to initiate the first strike.
http://www.jpost.com/MiddleEast/Article.aspx?id=169632
From all the multiple intimidating threats it appears that Iran and her allies may be intentionally trying to goad Israel into a preemptive strike against Iran so that Syria and the other Psalm 83 allies can join in and attack Israel. As such, the world would blame only Israel. From Psalm 83:1-8 it is evident that these enemies of Israel have devised a plot against her in order to "cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
Psalm 83:1-8
1 Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, and do not be still, O God! 2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; and those who hate You have lifted up their head. 3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, and consulted together against Your sheltered ones. 4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” 5 For they have consulted together with one consent; they form a confederacy against You: 6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab and the Hagrites; 7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; 8 Assyria also has joined with them; they have helped the children of Lot. Selah
Shi'ite Muslim belief is that one day their Messiah, the Mahdi, will return during a very cataclysmic time in human history and will establish the rule of Islam around the world in the last days. The leader of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and "others among the Iranian leadership believe that they are setting up the great cataclysm which will bring about the return of the Mahdi", their Messiah.
During a speech in Tehran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reportedly stated that his primary purpose in life is to "pave the path for the glorious reappearance of Imam Mahdi, may Allah hasten his reappearance."
http://signsofthelastdays.com/archives/does-iran-actually-want-a-war-with-israel-so-that-the-mahdi-can-return
It thus appears as though Iran is deliberately taunting Israel in an effort to bring about the cataclysmic return of their Mahdi.
An article just now out on February 28, 2010, reports that "Iran recently moved almost its entire stockpile of low-enriched uranium to an above-ground facility" and that "Teheran's strange move is akin to painting bull's-eye on stockpile." There are several hypotheses raised by the New York Times such as "Iran may be taunting Israel to attack..."
Earlier, I speculated upon my personal theories that Iran is intentionally goading Israel to attack in order to: 1) Bring about the return of their Mahdi/Messiah 2) Open the door for Syria and Hezbollah of Lebanon and the Palestinians (Hamas) to attack Israel in Iran's defense as they all desire "to cut them off from being a nation." In this manner, Syria and Lebanon and the Palestinians can justify attacking Israel saying they have provocation as Iran's defenders.
http://www.jpost.com/IranianThreat/News/Article.aspx?id=169774
Today, on February 28th, the Knesset, the Israeli cabinet, is supposed to meet to decide whether or not to strike Iran.
http://www.larouchepac.com/node/13618
As such, the Psalm 83 war appears to be looming VERY CLOSE! We need to keep a close eye Israel as the “the wars and rumors of wars” in the Mideast seem to be gaining momentum daily.
The Temple Mount Faithful, an organization whose main objective is the rebuilding of Israel's 3rd temple, has just issued this:
"An Urgent Call From Gershon Salomon, Chairman of the Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement, to All the Nations and to Everyone in the World:
The pressures on Israel at this time that are coming from the East and the West indicate that the end-time war of the nations against the G-d and people of Israel, which was prophesied by the prophets of Israel to be the ultimate judgment upon the nations, is behind the door."
http://www.templemountfaithful.org/News/the_coming_end-time_war_against_israel.htm
There have never been any such alerts or warnings by this group so, they are apparently seeing this end-time war coming.
The Temple Mount Faithful recently completed the altar needed for Temple sacrifices. They have succeeded in duplicating all the vessels and items needed in the Temple. Please see this video that elaborates on the 3rd Temple preparation:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Txly6SHt7Y
They have even built a school where the future temple priests are now being trained to conduct the Temple services and sacrifices.
The Sanhedrin (Jewish religious authorities) have announced an Initiative calling upon the Jewish people in Israel and throughout the world to participate in the Korban Pesachis (sacrifices). They are planning on resuming them next month (March 2010).
http://todayperhaps.ning.com/forum/topics/sacrifice-on-temple-mount-this?commentId=3830723%3AComment%3A6612
Keep in mind that there was no Sanhedrin for 1600 years until 2005, when they were reestablished. This is further proof of the end times that we are in.
To my knowledge, the red heifer( a red heifer without blemish) was the only item that was still needed for Temple worship. That, of course, could not be duplicated by human hand. It had to be birthed on God's time frame. So, this was all that is still needed for the 3rd Temple.
Since they are ready to initiate the daily sacrifices, it would appear that they have everything completed for the Temple and Temple worship-including the red heifer. They have not announced that they have a pure red heifer, but this may possibly for protection of the animal.
However, the mere fact that they are planning the resumption of sacrifices next month appears as though they would have to have the red heifer as its ashes are needed for purification for service in the Temple. If that is the case, the 3rd Temple would be completely ready to go!
Back to Psalm 83 war-after the Psalm 83 war, the anti-Zionist countries of the world would probably be reeling with hatred towards Israel at the carnage. They hate Israel anyway so this would really inflame them especially if Israel was to take the land of her conquered enemies (especially Saudi Arabia's oil rich land).
No longer is it acceptable to seize and own land after military defeats as in the days of the "empires". The world would be livid about Israel's occupation of the land of her defeated enemies.
This is where the "confirm a covenant with many" of Daniel 9:27 comes to play-.
Daniel 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.
Everyone has always thought that the "covenant with many" would be a peace plan between Israel and the Palestinians. The Palestinians would never agree to anything less than ALL of Israel and it’s total destruction and tiny Israel cannot afford to give away much more land.
There will never be any peace plan acceptable. Many have tried through the years but all have failed at their "peace plans". After the Psalm 83 war, a Mideast peace plan would be a moot point.
Israel has never been more alone than with Obama as president with his anti-Israeli policies. It is clear from current government policies that America is headed toward becoming a socialist nation and thus will remain against Israel.
God cannot and will not allow Israel to be destroyed and will not allow His land to be given away. We are now at the precipice of the entire world and Obama strong-arming Israel to give away more land and divide Jerusalem. Up to this point, America has enjoyed God’s blessings because of our support for Israel.
The current administration’s anti-Israel stance does not bode well for America as God warned that He would curse whoever would curse Israel:
Genesis 12:3 And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse. And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed."
God cannot stand for His Holy city to be divided. That is another reason why everything is coming to a head as the world (including America) is pressuring Israel to divide Jerusalem with the Palestinians. He will not allow this and that is why I am convinced that we are on the advent of the Psalm 83 War.
The antichrist’s “covenant with many” has to be an agreement already in place as it is going to be "confirmed". It cannot be the Oslo Accords (which really only favored the Palestinians anyway).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oslo_Accords
It will not be a covenant of men, but of God, as His covenant is all that is important-God does not care about mere men's agreements!
The covenant in question will be God's covenant with Abraham giving His land to Abraham and his descendants!
Genesis 15:18 In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
19The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
20And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
21And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites .
It is my perception that after the Psalm 83 war, the antichrist will stand up for Israel's right to keep her God-given land from the Psalm 83 war. He may even acknowledge the fact that this extra land is actually God's covenant land given to Israel.
Since the antichrist figure would be instrumental in Israel being able to retain and redeem her covenant land it will thought that he is their long awaited Messiah.
As per the preceding Temple Mount Faithful link: "The complete redemption of Israel, the rebuilding of the Temple, and the coming of Messiah Ben David are the next stages in G-d's end-time plans with Israel and the entire world."
In Judaism, they believe their coming Messiah is mandated to bring the world into alignment with the word of God so if/when the antichrist protects Israel's right to redeem God's covenant land, he would be viewed as their long-awaited Messiah.
Also, since Israel would then own the land, then the 3rd Temple can be rebuilt as they are completely ready to do so.
According to the below, the revealing of the antichrist which I project it would be evident who he is, by his role in confirming the ”covenant“” with many", will be after the Rapture.
2 Thessalonians 2:6-8a".. now you know what is restraining him from being revealed at this time; it is so that he may be manifested (revealed) in his own appointed time. For the mystery of lawlessness (that hidden principle of rebellion against constituted authority) is already at work in the world, but it is restrained only until he who restrains is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one (the antichrist) will be revealed "
Once the Rapture of the Church occurs, the normal restraining power of the Holy Spirit is "taken out of the way". Notice that this Scripture does not say the Holy Spirit is removed from this world, only that His restraining power is "taken out of the way".
Therefore, it would appear that the Rapture of the Church will be sometime after Psalm 83 war, if not before. If we are still here after this war, then the Rapture would not be far off according to the above interpretation of 2 Thessalonians 2:6-8.
Many reputable Christians have validated their reasoning and are of the mindset that Obama may possibly be THE antichrist (or at least a forerunner). Even though Obama is presently anti-Israel and pro-Arab-Muslim he could flip-flop (as is his method of operation).
After there is no Palestinian presence to give Israel's land away to, Obama could change his tune and instead advocate in favor of Israel regaining her covenant land.
If not Obama, there will be someone who could come and broker and confirm this covenant allowing Israel to redeem the rest of her covenant land. So, the antichrist should be revealed after the Psalm 83 war, whoever he may be.
I theorize that after Iran recovers and regroups from any strikes from Israel that they will, in retaliation, join with Russia and the other countries of the Gog-Magog alliance who are coming "to take a spOIL!". Israel would have the land and the oil! Also, Israel will then be at peace when they are invaded by Gog of Magog due to her victory in the Psalm 83 War.
Gog Magog Coalition:
Magog, Rosh = Russia and the former Soviet republics
Persia = Iran
Cush = Sudan, Ethiopia, and Possibly Eritrea
Put = Libya, Algeria, and Tunisa
Gomer, Meshech, and Tubal = Turkey (and possibly Germany and Austria)
Beth-togarmah = Turkey, Armenia, and the Turkish-speaking people of Asia Minor and Central Asia
Prophecy about Gog and Future Invasion of Israel
1 And the word of the LORD came to me saying, 2 "Son of man, set your face toward Gog of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him 3 and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal. 4 "I will turn you about and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, and all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them splendidly attired, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them wielding swords; 5 Persia, Ethiopia and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet; 6 Gomer with all its troops; Beth-togarmah from the remote parts of the north with all its troops-many peoples with you.
7 "Be prepared, and prepare yourself, you and all your companies that are assembled about you, and be a guard for them. 8 "After many days you will be summoned; in the latter years you will come into the land that is restored from the sword, whose inhabitants have been gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel which had been a continual waste; but its people were brought out from the nations, and they are living securely, all of them. 9 "You will go up, you will come like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, and many peoples with you."
10 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "It will come about on that day, that thoughts will come into your mind and you will devise an evil plan, 11 and you will say, 'I will go up against the land of UNWALLED VILLAGES. I will go against those who are at rest, that live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates, 12 to capture spoil and to seize plunder, to turn your hand against the waste places which are now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the nations, who have acquired cattle and goods, who live at the center of the world.' 13 "Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its villages will say to you, 'Have you come to capture spoil? Have you assembled your company to seize plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to capture great spoil?'"'
Of course, I am not certain that these presumptions are 100% correct but I feel confident that at least some will come to pass as all the puzzle pieces seem to be fitting so perfectly in place. The Middle East bears watching as at this point, it appears headed in this direction.
If these events that I have proposed start coming to pass then their prophetic fulfillment can be used to lead others to Christ. Biblical prophecy is simply history written in advance and fulfilled prophecy is one of the best evidences that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. God gave us His prophetic Word so that all would know He is God!
Isaiah 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
Israel, supposedly will be deciding in the next week whether or not to strike Iran, which the affirmative would begin the Psalm 83 war! So, time may be growing short!
Luke 21:36 Watch you therefore, and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
We can see more evidence that we are in the last days by the beginning of the exhilarating fulfillment of God pouring out His Spirit. In a nation previously strangled by voodoo, there have been over 40,000 Haitians that have professed Jesus as Savior since the quake.
:17And it shall come to pass in the last days, God declares, that I will pour out of My Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy [[a]telling forth the divine counsels] and your young men shall see visions ([b]divinely granted appearances), and your old men shall dream [[c]divinely suggested] dreams.
18Yes, and on My menservants also and on My maidservants in those days I will pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy [[d]telling forth the divine counsels and [e]predicting future events pertaining especially to God's kingdom].
19And I will show wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth beneath, blood and fire and smoking vapor;
20The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the obvious day of the Lord comes--that great and notable and conspicuous and renowned [day].
21And it shall be that whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord [[f]invoking, adoring, and worshiping the Lord--Christ] shall be saved.,

It is exciting to see God's Spirit moving and His prophetic Word coming to fruition, possibly in the near future, with the Rapture as our ultimate goal!
However, we need to remember to be praying for the multitude of souls that will pass into eternity as a result of this war. Most are Muslims and Jews who will face eternal punishment if they leave this world without Jesus as their Savior.
We need to pray for the peace of Jerusalem as we are instructed and pray for the many who do not know Jesus as Lord and Savior.
Psalm 122:6 Pray for peace in Jerusalem. May all who love this city prosper.
Please share this study with other Christ followers as you are led, so as many of us as possible can be “sounding the alarm” that the King of Kings is coming!
Reach out to unsaved loved ones and friends and let us spread the Gospel while we can as our time to do so appears to be drawing short-
John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
MARANATHA!
