TRAGEDY ON AMERICAN SOIL?

The following assessment was found on a message board and very accurately describes the current calamitous world events. Most of us here is America are totally unfazed by the Tribulation type events that are now happening to the millions of people on the opposite side of the globe.

Will it take such afflictions and tragedy on America's soil for American believers to wake up to the lateness of the hour??

 "20 MILLION HOMELESS IN PAKISTANI FLOODS-  "Look at those who are losing everything, including family members, in the flooding, earthquakes, and mudslides in Asia, and in the fires in Russia right now.  

The fires in Russia are spreading over vast areas of land, even into North China, and over areas where the Chernobyl nuclear disaster happened a few years back, the ground being full of radiation.  One third or more of Russia's wheat crop has been destroyed. The fires number in the hundreds, and they are not being put out. Russia estimates that about 700 a day are dying from the heat, the pollution, and the fires--heart attacks are up 30%, for example. 

 

The heat is incredible, the smog in the air is making breathing very difficult. The spread of the radiation from the Chernobyl by air to many areas of the world is very much a reality"

Eyes need to be opened to see that we are at the end of the age. Widespread famine and disease and economic collapse will be coming as a result of all these disasters. This is just as Jesus prophesied! It is time to take our eyes of the things of this world and prepare ourselves for eternity.

¹⁸ I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. ¹⁹ As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. ²⁰ Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. ²¹ To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
²² “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’”

THE OIL IS ENTERING THE WATER CYCLE AND THE SOON COMING HURRICANES MAY BE OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS!

The previous blog entry outlined the possibility that martial law may be declared as a result of the unfettered oil spill continuing to poison our waters:

However, there is an even worse case scenario than just the declaration of martial law that may soon be coming.

The below assessment by Stephanie Pasco is very credible from not only a scientific basis but also from the standpoint of Biblical prophecy:

 "I agree that this is a well laid plan to enforce Martial Law. But, it's even darker than that. The rain now contains oil. Hurricane season is almost on us. Oil is being spread via rain and ocean spray. Once fierce lightening storms flare up there will be unstoppable fires fed from the rain, rather than aide the battle. The fires will be everywhere where the chemical dispersant/oil rain has fallen. 

The hurricane season will be of biblical proportions due to the super heating of the air an water from the oil cover. The gulf is stagnating as we speak. It gets worse than that. The food crops are being contaminated by the dispersant/oil rain. The food will be poisoned.

Once the Mississippi River is compromised no ships will be able to sail through her waters. The Mississippi is the main waterway to ship in food and all manner of items we depend upon for daily life. This is likely going to cause a famine of unknown proportions. I hope people have food set up. This year will be the death of the dollar, and any prosperity America has ever known. Disease, famine, Martial Law, FEMA Camps. That is how I see it. God knows I hope I am wrong.."

We have now embarked on the road to where circumstances may so quickly deteriorate in America to where Christians will no longer choose to tightly grasp the things of this world as the world environment becomes undesirable.

The birth pains are steadily increasing just as Jesus forewarned they would.

It a shame that it will take bad times for the majority of the people of God to change their priorities. As things worsen and the allures of the world fade into chaos, Christians will then FINALLY DESIRE for the Lord Jesus Christ to return!! 

Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

 

SIX VOLCANOES THAT COULD SHUT DOWN THE WORLD AND THAT ARE PRONE FOR UPCOMING ACTIVITY

NOTICE THAT MOST OF THESE UNSTABLE VOLCANOES ARE PAST DUE FOR ERUPTIONS!

With the increasing seismic acitivty in all the divers places currently occuring and increasing as do birth pains, just as prophesied by Jesus, these treacherous volcanoes could be easily awakened. It is important to remember that earthquakes and volcanoes go hand in hand as volcanoes can cause earthquakes and earthquakes can precipitate volcanic eruptions.

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

Mark 13:8 "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

Luke 21:11"And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven."

"6 volcanoes that could shut down the world"

"Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull wreaked havoc on European air travel, but it could have been worse. Much, much,much worse!

"Some worst-case volcanic scenarios could create mass destruction."


"The eruption of Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull caused billions of dollars in economic damage, and left millions of travelers stranded. But on the Volcanic Explosivity Index — volcanologists' tool for rating the severity of an eruption — the event rated only a two out of a possible eight. More severe eruptions cause "death and destruction" on a planetary basis, points out Simon Winchester in The Guardian. "They can darken skies and cause devastating changes in the weather. They can and do bring about the abrupt end to the existence of entire populations of animals and people" — not to mention economic damages that could run into the trillions. Here are six volcanoes worth fearing:


1. KATLA (Iceland)
Last erupted: 1918
Effects of a major eruption: If Katla goes off, its eruption will be 10 times stronger than Eyjafjallajokull's. Katla's larger ash plume would shoot higher in the air and spread over larger areas of Europe for a longer period, with much more devastating effects on air travel and economic trade. An eruption could tip Europe's economy — perhaps even the world's — back into severe recession or a depression.


Likelihood: Fairly high. The two volcanoes, only 12 miles apart, tend to erupt in tandem, and Katla is slightly overdue in its 80-year cycle."

Please see the following previous blog entries detailing the potential eruption of Katla:

http://theworldisshaking.blogspot.com/2010/04/katla-may-mean-end-of-world-as-we-know.html

"2. CUMBRE VIEJA (La Palma, Canary Islands)
Last erupted: 1971
Effects of a major eruption: In 2001, U.S. and British scientists warned that a major eruption of Cumbre Vieja could cause the enire western flank of the volcano to fall into the sea, creating a "mega-tsunami" in the Atlantic. Traveling at 500 miles per hour, it would wipe out Florida, coastal Brazil, and parts of Europe with waves up to 160-feet high.
Likelihood: The scientists say the "year to year probability" of a major eruption is low, but preparations should be taken anyway given the potentially cataclysmic damages.


3. MT. VESUVIUS (Italy)
Last erupted: 1944
Effects of major eruption: Famous for wiping out Pompeii and Herculaneum in 79 A.D., Vesuvius would do much greater damage today. About 3 million people live near the volcano, 600,000 of them in the "red zone." An eruption would kill at least 8,000 people and cause more than $24 billion worth of damage, according to Willis Research Network, which just named Vesuvius the most dangerous volcano in Europe. The ash would change weather patterns in Europe and leave the Naples area a "lifeless desert."


Likelihood: Scientists say Vesuvius is overdue for an explosion.


4. POPOCATÉPETL (Mexico)
Last erupted: 2000
Effects of a major eruption: The third-tallest active volcano in the Northern Hemisphere, Popocatépetl is only 40 miles west of Mexico City and its 18 million inhabitants, and 30 miles east of Puebla, a city of two million. A large eruption could send deadly mudslides into the populous valleys below, creating "catastrophic" loss of life.

Likelihood: After an 80-year dormant period, Popocatépetl is showing signs of activity.5. MT. TAMBORA (Sumbawa, Indonesia)
Last erupted: 1967
Effects of a major eruption: Tambora erupted in spectacular fashion in 1815 and changed weather patterns around the globe, causing "frosts in Italy in June and snows in Virginia in July, and the failure of crops in immense swaths across Europe and the America." The blow-up killed more than 71,000 people directly, and many more through famine and sickness.


Likelihood: Tambora is still active and, given its history and Indonesia's 222 million inhabitants, closely monitored.

6. YELLOWSTONE "SUPERVOLCANO" (U.S.)
Last erupted: 640,000 years ago
Effects of a major eruption: When the Yellowstone Caldera, or "supervolcano," in Yellowstone National erupts again, it will render a huge swath of North America, from Vancouver to Oklahoma City, uninhabitable. It would have incalculable human and economic consequences. The last eruption of similar magnitude — 73,000 years ago in Sumatra — plunged the entire planet into a decade-long volcanic winter and nearly wiped out the human race.


Likelihood: Geologists see signs that it could be preparing for another major blowout soon, although "soon" could mean thousands of years."
