Something is coming (Editorial)
Flashtrafficblog Joel C. Rosenberg Blog ^ | 20 Jun 15 | Joel Rosenberg

Something is coming. I don’t know what. But we must be ready. Here’s the key question: Is America heading towards a terrible implosion or a great awakening?

I feel a tremendous sense of urgency about this column.

The United States is hurtling towards severe trouble, and the events of the past few months — and what may be coming over the next few months — grieves me a great deal.

Something is coming. I don’t know what. But we all must be ready in every possible way.

Consider where we are in the summer of 2015:

•Violence is exploding in our cities, schools and churches. The horrific mass murder inside the church in Charleston would be bad enough if it wasn’t just one of innumerable mass killings that have become epidemic in America.

•Racism is tearing us apart, and it appears things are getting worse, not better.

•The Supreme Court is poised to rule any day now on the definition and future of marriage — and if the Court rules against Biblical marriage I believe this could cause the Lord’s hand to turn against our country in a severe and profound way according to the moral laws found in Romans chapter one.

•Abortions are occurring at more than one million in year and have put America on the fast track to judgment. Since 1973, Americans have murdered 57 million children through abortions. The blood of 57 million babies is crying out for justice, and they will get it in God’s sovereign timing. Could that be soon?

•If all this wasn’t bad enough, marriages and families are imploding all around us. Poverty is growing. Drug and alcohol use is epidemic. And that’s just here at home.

•Abroad, Iran is closing in on The Bomb.

More people are killed by chickens than by mass murderers (lung diseases).

The author describes a set of BIG Problems - then pronounces that the solution is building a bunch of new churches ... Really now!?

Build a bunch of new churches to house tens of thousands of NON INVOLVED Christians who refuse to take any action against the Evils of the obama government. The Rapture is coming - I can’t stand up to be counted to counter the evils of obama .. I have to go to church and DO NOTHING but put my head in the sand and BELIEVE.

The biggest ally obama has is millions of modern Christians who will do NOTHING on a broad scale to fight the greatest symbol of Evil in America in our lifetimes. It is easier to cop-out and go pray

Personally - I think God wants Christians to do something besides PRAY. I think God wants people to take action against obama...

The Christian movement of the 2008 to 2015 is NON INVOLVEMENT... wait for someone to show me the way... shut my eyes - shut my ears - shut up and pray...

I am not impressed with this class of Americans.... obama’s passive sheep allies.

You might want to look at the history of the dark ages. The cloistered and isolated churches flourished. Civil society, notsomuch.

I do, too. I have enjoyed this spring and summer immensely, because it somehow feels like the eye of a hurricane.

If I am a "daughter"--I am prophesying. Something is coming, and it is coming in September.

America would not have Obama had Christians voted in the 208 and the 2014 elections. We Americans are, sadly, responsible for the evils done by our government.

Actually, lots of places are not mentioned.

It doesn’t mean a complete dissolution is inevitable.

We could just become completely irrelevant because we have so neutered ourselves as a nation with these anti-Biblical social issues that we are of no heavenly good in the final battle.

And millions of people demanding free handouts.

And millions of liberals who have been so brainwashed they have no clue what is happening...and been raised to be so arrogant that they are incapable of learning.

I agree. America plays no significant role (worth of mention) in End Times Bible Prophecy.

Shocking. That’s why so many attempt to twist is as “Babylon”. We have pretty similar qualities. But Mystery Babylon is a city, referenced as such multiple times in Revelation.

I also feel something is about to happen. The other night I wrote this article: ______________________________________________________ Barack Obama's Third Term? ‎6‎/‎21‎/‎2015‎ ‎10‎:‎47‎:‎21‎ ‎AM · 17 of 61 HarleyLady27 to PROCON Could this be what “Jade Helm” is all about? To get us used to seeing military combat walking in our streets, stores, churches, driving military vehicles, hearing over head helicopters? And then Martial Law being imposed, and what do we have, a take over of our Freedom Government to Muslim Brotherhood....ISIS???? Could that be why all the immigration being moved in, is that why certain high ranking military officials being reduced or retired? Could that be why all the fuss about internet takeover??? __________________________________________________ So, with the information I have studied: http://theamericanreport.org/ history behind the Confederate Flag; The Bible; I fully believe that there is nothing but evil about to happen, whether it's the stock market, the take over of our Government as we know it, what ever is about to happen, there is a feel in the air.... This has been planned, and none other than by 'slob boy' in the Oval Office..... Sorry if you feel this isn't what you feel, but as the 70 years I have been alive, have read, heard, witnessed, I can say that I am afraid...for America, for my family and for me...I take the Bible very seriously and have a very firm footing of faith, so whatever it is, or isn't, I am with God all the way....

What is a facade is the strength of the US dollar and all of the financial institutions.

There are those who are reaping huge profits from all of this QE and deficit spending.

While their profits may be legal, they are not moral or ethical because they are profiting from the borrowing of counterfeit money, and they certainly have nothing to do with free enterprise or Capitalism (big C capitalism, with its rules and risks, though all of those scumbags are small “c” capitalists, like hyenas capitalizing on the lions’ kill). Our monetary and financial industries are closer to economic fascism than any other system.

What remains to be seen is how long the central bankers and socialist government can float this country through a painful stagnation before it completely unravels.

Many pundits compare us to Japan and how they have been floating their economy on QE and BS for 20 years.

What those pundits fail to realize is that Japan had the growing economies (and strong monetary units) of China and the US to float them.

China is beginning to unravel (I predicted this over 10 years ago when it was evident that they were lying about their macro measurements).

The US has run over the cliff and is momentarily suspended above the canyon like Wile E Coyote before he drops.

My tagline here used to be “Prepare for survival.”
I still hold that belief, but the most important aspect of that prepping is to have a location far away from the masses (especially the animals in the cities) and to have a small group of people all working together, prepping, stockpiling, and committed to one another’s survival. You simply won’t survive on your own.

If you look at a map (or Joel Skousen’s “Strategic Relocation”), there aren’t many places that are far enough away from the masses.

If there is a total collapse, tens of millions will starve and be murdered in a very short time.

Truly a bleak scenario.

And it seems that evil is running around like a lunatic causing as much insanity in this country as possible.

Who can doubt that this is the plan that is the culmination of 100 years of Marxist/Communist planning and indoctrination and agitating and suing to so completely rot our heart from within that the body dies?

“Something is always ‘coming’.”

Agent K: There’s always an alien battle cruiser, or a Corellian death ray, or an intergalactic plague intended to wipe out life on this miserable little planet. The only way these people can get on with their happy lives is that they DO NOT KNOW ABOUT IT!

A We The People Republic with a strong military is a nuisance to the globalist agenda, so America must be destroyed from within. L4B was placed in the White Hut to get that done, asap.
