Celente has been very accurate in the past, and predicts a Revolution, food shortage, the USA becoming an undeveloped country, and even more depressing goodness. Being unbiased, and his record of accuracy makes this forecast frightening.
Oh boy. :^(
great....can’t wait!
I know. I started to add a warning on the effect of even watching the video. I am nauseous.
Uh oh, how soon do I need to start stocking up on groceries?
Is this The End?
and they still will blame Bush
Cash in the mattress might become the best investment.
When things go good, people predict Dow 20,000, when things go bad, people predict the end of civilization.
The only way those things could happen would involve a massive military attack on the US.
When you push God out of your nation you lose. Always happens that way.
On June 27th and 28th I attended a women's conference in Atlanta called Deeper Still. I was one of three speakers the others being Kay Art hur and Priscilla Shirer. I looked forward to a special time of worship and having God convict me of my sins and lead me to areas in my life where I need to change. I have been to similar conferences for years, although none this large and with so many well-known speakers. There were over 20,000 women in attendance at the Phillips Arena in Atlanta - they said it was the largest crowd ever.
I had an idea of what to expect from the conference, but nothing prepared me for what actually happened. I feel led to share my experience with family and friends. This is important, so stay with me!
When Kay Arthur took the stage you could just tell that her spirit was heavy and there was a certain 'heaviness' in the atmosphere even before she started to speak. She said that she had been literally physically sick to have to bring us this message and right out the gate she said, 'We are in grave danger.' She said that God had revealed to her that a literal famine is coming to Americ a.. Physical, not spiritual. She said that God is moving in judgment against our nation. I know I can't describe this well enough, but the atmosphere was ominous.
Kay is a seasoned speaker and she had to BATTLE to get through her message. She stumbled over scriptures and had an extremely difficult time. At times I was almost expecting her to collapse. At one point she just had to stop and pray.
There was no person, myself included, that I could see who did not have tears streaming down their faces. As you may know, Kay Arthur is normally a very confident, composed speaker, but she was literally in a spiritual battle and it was taking place right before my eyes. I have never seen anything like it.
She went on to give 7 things that Christians must do during this time and I am going to give those to you now:
1. Return to God. Jeremiah 4:3 - Break up the fallow ground - return to Me. Repent. Get on your face before God and ask him to break your heart with the things that break His heart.
2. Mourn. Jeremiah 9:17-18 and Ezekiel 9 - It is time to weep because our nation's sin is incredible.
3. Pray. Jeremiah 36:7 - Pray fervently, passionately for America.
4. Love God's Word. Jeremiah 20 - You MUST love the Word of God and be in the Word of God. I was particularly convicted here because I know I have not been as deeply in His Word as I need to be. She said we must get serious about this.
5. Love others as Jesus loved them. Jeremiah 31:3 and John 13:34.
6. Introduce people to Jesus Christ. It's time to get serious about this. This is no time for timidity. Jeremiah 31:31; Jeremiah 33:1-9, 15, 17.
7. Rest. If you will do these things, then rest in the fact that you have done God's will. She said that it is going to be vitally important for us to get enough physical rest. She went on to say that God has not given us a spirit of fear and tha t if we are obedient to Him, we will be protected. She said to read Ezekiel 14 over and over until you understand it. This is what God will do if a country turns against Him. She said that this is going to be a calamity (she used the word calamity in such a way that you knew this is going to be no small thing for our country), and gave many more scripture references, but what I have given you are the main points that she made.
I hope you know that I would not have sent this to you if I had not been profoundly affected by it and feel it is of great importance to share it. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you will do with this information what you feel led by God to do. Love in Christ Jesus, Beth
Barak Obama will save America. Yes we can. Change we can believe in. He has the audacity of hope. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
Actually if this happens, cash in the mattress could approach the value of zero.
Good news - the US has a more diverse abundance of natural resources than any other country. We may very well be de-civilized in that our banking industry has to be rebuilt from the ground up, but our bounty of natural resources aren’t going anywhere. Second, this is a global crisis, not an American one. When we get punched, our enemies get punched twice. Third, we’re going to be fine. You guys in the cities (and the Democrats) will have it harder than rural areas (and Republicans), but you’re not going to starve. Buy real assets and get out of stocks/bonds and intangibles for a while, be smart, be kind, work hard and we’ll be fine.
Welcome to Free Republic, since 10-13-08.
Many of us here put God first, and those of us who do need not worry. Whatever happens, His Hand is there. He is in the whirlwind.
If he judges America for abandoning her first love, then so be it. I am resigned to that possibility. We’ll still stand in the breach, pointing to Him and our First Principles.
This is the problem when government policy is predicated on an assumption of continual economic growth. Instead of letting the market work and allowing prices to adjust as market participants adjust, the government intervenes.
But the economy must always grow. How else are all of the goodies promised to the public going to be paid? Well, the government can always print money, but at some point inflation and interest rates will start to creep up.
At the end of the day, it may be fashionable to blame the politicians, but it’s the people in whom the fault lies. You wanted something for nothing. You believed you could get something for nothing. And in the end, you will be left with nothing.
Americans by and large like to celebrate our work ethic, our strength. But time and time again we are content to push the easy button at the polls.
“...attack on the US.”
There’s always those threats...some serious, some not.
Ditto.
Well, in all fairness, looking at all the programs The O wants to implement, this forecast is probably accurate. The good news: if it gets too bad, maybe all the poor will go to Mexico where the COL is cheaper than up here and we’ll change the mix between people voting for Capitalism and Socialism back to our side.
Yep, ditto.
