FIRES IN CALIFORNIA NOW CLAIM MORE THAN A THOUSAND HOMES IN PROPHETIC 'ALARM'

Sent to Earth (Michael Brown) Throughout the centuries, since Noah, there have been strange times: periods when floods, earthquakes, tidal waves, storms, droughts, plagues, volcanoes, and even asteroid or comet activity have haunted the earth. The hints are right there in the nightly news. It's about to happen again. God is poised to send major events, and it's for a simple reason. Like the people in ancient times, we've allowed evil to build up, and as a result we face happenings everywhere. This is the book Mother Angelica has featured and calls  'awesome.' CLICK HERE

FIRES IN CALIFORNIA NOW CLAIM MORE THAN A THOUSAND HOMES IN PROPHETIC 'ALARM'

There is probably no single event more emblematic of chastisement than fire. Think of it: fire and brimstone, Sodom and Gomorrah. We see fire represented in both natural and man-made events (from forests fires to Hiroshima). Of course, it is also the symbol of hell itself -- and this is what is so often mentioned now with the intense California blazes: that it is a "hellish" scene, propelled by the Santa Ana winds, which long have been nicknamed the "winds of Satan."

Day by day, month by month, it gets increasingly difficult to be skeptical about the signs around us. The main question is what will follow. We must recall that the last horrific California fire emergency occurred in Oakland in 1991, in that case destroying 2,449 single-family homes and marking the upswing in prophetic events -- followed swiftly as it was by blizzards, earthquakes, record northeasters, and Hurricane Andrew.

Now, in the very backdrop of Los Angeles -- the single most imperiled city in the U.S. -- there are the red licks of flame as background for the Hollywood lots that are cranking out movies like Kill Bill (the most violent movie ever) and Scary Movie 3 (in which a picture of Mother Teresa is blown away by a gunshot) and just constant pornography. In fact, it would do Californians well to heed that the last major disaster in the L.A. area, the quake in 1994, had its epicenter in North Ridge -- where 80 percent of the nation's x-rated videos are made.

Now we will look at the fires and see what they reach. We already note that against all odds the fire has spared the Ronald Reagan Library. An official statement extends prayers for those who have fallen victim. Let us do the same. There is special danger to upscale communities that have built in tinder-dry exurbs.

In the prophecies of mystics, fire is frequently mentioned. In 2 Peter 3:7  it tells us, "By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men." In the alleged secret of LaSalette it was said that "the moon will reflect a faint reddish glow. Water and fire will give the earth's globe convulsions." It added later on that "water and fire will purge the earth and consume all the works of human pride." 

It now seems like we have entered a deeper phase of an hour of fire. In Yugoslavia a reputed seer named Julka saw "the whole atmosphere of the earth, from the ground to the sky, as a gigantic sheet of flame." Many are those who have seen an inferno, and of course the third secret of Fatima has an angel poised with a flaming sword. "The day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat," says 2 Peter 39:10.

Where will the current fires end? Will they soon die down?  And whatever happens this year, are they harbingers for greater fires in the coming years, fires that will not just incinerate a million acres of forest but also cities and towns unless we convert?

They are signs of the times and they tell us not only that seasons are changing -- that the climate is altering. A few short years ago a chunk of forest the size of England burned in South America, and in Australia fires have thrice raged to the very city limits of Sydney, a city known for its gay and liberal lifestyle.

In Isaiah it says the Lord will come "like a whirlwind, to render His anger and fury, and His rebuke with flames of fire."

In Joel 2:28-31 there are "blood and fire and pillars of smoke."

In 2 Peter 3:7  it tells us, "By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men."

And then there was St. Padre Pio. 

Once, when asked what the future held, the great priest replied simply: "Can't you see that the world is catching on fire?"

This is quite a stretch, and smacks of religious opportunism.

You are bad. ;-)

"there have been strange times: periods when floods, earthquakes, tidal waves, storms, droughts, plagues, volcanoes, and even asteroid or comet activity"

The "strange times" would be if none of those things were happening. Ever hear the well known espression:
Shiite happens?

[narses]

"Can't you see that the world is catching on fire?"

[narses]

Sunni rather than later shiite always happens.

[NeoCaveman]

This was fortold by Midnight Oil


Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty five degrees

The time has come
To say fair's fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share

The time has come
A fact's a fact
It belongs to them
Let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep while our beds are burning
Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore East to Yuendemu
The western desert lives and breathes
In forty five degrees

[NeoCaveman]

Or perhaps it was Billy Joel

We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it

[Land of the Irish]

Sunni rather than later shiite always happens.

Took me a half second, LOL.

[narses]

That should have been sunni or later....

[ahadams2]

naah, that wasn't bad - if he'd given it a Jimmy Swagart bump, now that would have been bad....:-)

And then we have these words of encouragement today in the first reading:

Reading I
Rom 8:31b-39

Brothers and sisters:
If God is for us, who can be against us?
He did not spare his own Son
but handed him over for us all,
how will he not also give us everything else along with him?
Who will bring a charge against God's chosen ones?
It is God who acquits us.
Who will condemn?
It is Christ Jesus who died, rather, was raised,
who also is at the right hand of God,
who indeed intercedes for us.
What will separate us from the love of Christ?
Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine,
or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?
As it is written:

For your sake we are being slain all the day;
we are looked upon as sheep to be slaughtered.

No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly
through him who loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities,
nor present things, nor future things,
nor powers, nor height, nor depth,
nor any other creature will be able to separate us
from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Perhaps if the fires were an Act of God and not the act of out of work contractors exercising entrepeneurial initiatives.
