Prophetic tree trimming, which occurs on the 33rd anniversity of it's planting. Jesus Christ lived to the exact same age before He was crucified and returned to the Father.

Perhaps, this is another sign that the Church age has ended and the 70 week of Daniel has already begun. Don't be surprised if God's making a statement about the true nature of the current occupant of the White House!

Bambi might say, quoting the little ditty we all learned as children about George Washington and the cherry tree...”With my little ax...”

Actually, Bambi would never admit to it because he’s a liar since the day of his birth and lying is his nature.

The tree committed suicide because it couldn’t stand the thought of having to go through one more Christmas tree lighting event with the Obamas.

God is NOT happy with Obama and the U.S. in general.

We have been kicking Him out of our culture and churches for YEARS. Just read the Bible and SEE what He consistently does when He is pissed off.

US rebukes Israel and suddenly this????
I can't help but think that God is not pleased!!! This is not the first time He has sent a proverbial shot across the bow...so to speak when it comes to the heinous actions aginst Israel.
