The Great Reset Perhaps the most telling indicator today of the rapidly approaching tribulation is the fast-rising world government that the Bible says will dominate the world during the tribulation period. The globalists openly discuss their plans for world domination, yet so many believers, as well as their pastors, remain oblivious to the sinister agenda of these elite power brokers. Daymond Duck, in his March 20, 2021, article on the Rapture Ready website, Apocalypse Approaching, wrote this in regard to the coming New World Order of the antichrist: The Bible clearly teaches that the Antichrist and False Prophet will be...

As he fell further behind in polls and battled allegations of sexual misconduct in recent days, Donald Trump moved to darker corners. He sketched out conspiracies involving global bankers, casually threatened to jail his political opponent, and warned in increasingly specific terms that a loss by him would spell the end of civilization. The distrust of U.S. institutions that Trump has nurtured among his core supporters is readily apparent. One North Carolina man predicted in an interview that the military would probably assassinate Hillary Clinton if she’s elected president. A woman at an Iowa town hall for Trump’s running mate,...

In news terms, it has been a quieter summer than usual, and not remotely reminiscent of invincible summers that presaged a global descent into terrible times, such as 1929 or 1939. There has not even been the sort of flash crisis that brought us all in from the verandas or off the water early to follow president Dwight D. Eisenhower’s brilliant invasion of Lebanon in 1958 or the Soviet Bloc’s brutal suppression of the Czech pursuit of the chimera of “Communism with a human face” in 1968. This summer, we really only had the clangorous American presidential campaign to divert...

United Nations (United States) (AFP) - Robert Redford told the United Nations on Monday that negotiations on a global deal to tackle climate change could be the world's "last chance" to save the planet. "This December, the world must unite behind a common goal," said the American actor and producer. "Because look, this is it. This is our only planet, our only life source. "This may be our last chance." World governments will try to forge a new global accord to address climate change at a UN climate conference in Paris in December, with both developed and developing countries committing...

Just heard, just announced. GOP House to the rescue, will send a final CR to Senate to avoid government shutdown.

I went to Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Monday to find out. Out of 1,189,530 votes cast the next day in bellwether Ohio, Mr. Santorum lost to Mitt Romney by only 10,288, at last count. He's doing something right, and what one learned in Cuyahoga Falls, an Akron suburb, is that it doesn't have much to do with the famous Santorum controversies over social issues. It's about ObamaCare. And it's about the idea of freedom. ....Rick Santorum should stay in the race, repeating from now till summer the perverse link between the ObamaCare mandate and the American idea of freedom. It looks...

This week at a tele-town hall hosted by Ralph Reed’s Faith and Freedom Coalition, a caller asked Newt Gingrich if he would consider choosing former half-term Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate. Gingrich responded by saying that Palin “is certainly one of the people you would look at” and told the caller that he is “a great admirer of hers.” "She is certainly one of the people you would look at. I am a great admirer of hers and she was a remarkable reform governor of Alaska, she’s somebody who I think brings a great deal to the...

My brother wrote, and sent to me, the following: I believe if you look closely at corruption you will decide that it stems from a concentration of power. That’s the way the mafia operates and all of the financial boys that are caught up in scandal as well as the Nazi’s, and every other corrupt government in today’s modern world. While we may not be able to stop some of the current legislation before Congress, we can disrupt or equalize the concentration of power in government in the 2010 elections. This may be our last chance. We have fallen into...

...The amnesty compromise has been reached (at least 95% of it, anyway). Sen. Kennedy (D-Mass.), Sen. Kyl (R-Ariz.) and Pres. Bush have negotiated a grand compromise between those who wanted a massive increase in foreign workers and those who wanted a blanket amnesty for illegal aliens and virtually unlimited family chain migration. Nobody involved represented the American people's interest in immigration reductions. The first key vote will be next Monday night. Senators are admitting privately that the bill will increase the number of greencards (for permanent settlement) by 20 million over the next 13 years. Added to the number that...

A Hinge of History August 9th, 2006 As I recline in my virtual hammock this lovely Midwestern midsummer’s day, feeling the warm, gentle breezes as they waft across my face (“God’s air conditioning” we call it out here), my thoughts turn to the currents and eddies of history that are churning just below the placid surface of the mundane, the day to day happenings in the world. Another war here. Some kind of dust-up in Africa. Is there no end to Asian “economic miracles”? And Old Man Europe, grown senile and oblivious to all but his ever growing number of...

If Democrats win back the Congress in the 2006 midterm elections, they could make President Bush's last two years in office so miserable it would be impossible for any Republican to win the 2008 presidential election - thus ensuring that Hillary Clinton becomes president. So says Dick Morris, the only political strategist to engineer a successful presidential reelection campaign for Democrats since the days of FDR. If the GOP doesn't reconnect with the American people on key issues like border enforcement, "they will lose the House and they will lose the Senate," Morris told ABC Radio's Sean Hannity on Thursday....

URGENTRight now, we are only able to afford to air ads in two states. We need to at least get into Pennsylvania. If all of our email contributors simply repeat 75% of their first contribution, we can do it. And if you have thought about giving but have yet to do so, this is it. We need your help now. Most of us survived on Navy pay, so we know how difficult this might be. But, we also know how important it is. Help us get into Pennsylvania. Without your help, we will have to abandon any advertising in...

<p>PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - The NASA rover Opportunity turned a camera skyward to photograph Mars' moon Deimos eclipsing the sun and also carried out the most complex movements yet of its robotic arm to record microscopic images of a rock, Jet Propulsion Laboratory said Thursday.</p>

White House: Saddam Missed 'Last Chance' In a series of meetings, the president and his advisers swung back and forth on the question of whether Iraq is in "material breach" of the United Nations (news - web sites), which would provide what Bush considers legal justification for war. Senior administration officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Wednesday afternoon that Bush had decided to strongly condemn Iraq's weapons disclosure as full of omissions and deceptions but would not immediately assert that Saddam is in "material breach." Later, those same officials and others involved in the talks said the issue...

Source: NASA/Jet Propulsion Laboratory Date: 11/15/2002 NASA Prepares For "Last Chance" Meteor Shower The early morning hours of Nov. 19 may be your last chance to see the spectacular Leonid meteor shower in its full glory, according to astronomers. "Even with the full Moon, this year's Leonids will probably be better than any other for the next hundred years," said Dr. Don Yeomans, an astronomer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. "If you're ever going to see them, this might be the year to try." NASA is taking advantage of the event for several research efforts around the world....

RALEIGH, N.C. - North Carolina House rejected a state lottery advisory referendum for November. Lottery supporters pushed the referendum this week as time wound down to get it on the Nov. 5 ballot. Election officials have said they needed the question approved this week to be able to print it on absentee ballots. It wasn't immediately clear whether the lottery issue was dead for the rest of the year or whether it would be revived for another year. The proposed legislation asked voters Nov. 5 to check yes or no to the question on whether to have an "Education Lottery."...
