Greetings from Tyler
There is so much news signaling the economic
demise of the United States that it is nearly
impossible to digest all of it. Our
representatives obviously have an insatiable
appetite for expensive social engineering and
are deeply committed to wealth redistribution.
If the high priests of global warming get their
way and the “climate change”
treaty is signed in Copenhagen, then the
United States will be obligated to pay a “climate
debt” to all the nations of the third
world. It’s a kind of “reparations plan” which
will transfer U.S. wealth to every backward
backwater you never heard of. Apparently, the
U.S. must be punished for its hard earned
prosperity.
A lengthening
list of states is in dire economic trouble.
New York may go under by the end of this year.
California has a chronic fiscal crisis of epic
proportions. But politicians continue to fund a
cornucopia of government programs, spending
nonexistent suns of other people’s money.
The problem is that the
United States is heading rapidly toward
bankruptcy. Some analysts say that the
nation is already bankrupt, and continuing to
operate in denial. I heard one CEO of finance
calmly predict the collapse of the dollar, the
advent of a
global currency and a “New
World Order” to run the new one world
system. Does that ring any bells with anyone?
It sounds eerily like a fulfillment of Bible
prophecies that coincide with the horrible
events at the end of the age.
Iran says that the U.S. President must
choose between Israel and Iran. You are all
aware of Iran’s forward progress on the nuclear
front, and the danger that Israel faces.
Actually, the U.S. is also vulnerable to the
prospect of an
E.M.P. attack from any terrorist entity that
might acquire the technology. But here at home,
our leaders and the leading voices in the
mainstream media are at a complete loss when it
comes to an appraisal of the risks, o even
identifying the enemies. The leading voices are
more interested in “diversity” and
political correctness than they are in
preserving our national integrity.
The U.S. born Army doctor
Muslim terrorist who shot up Fort Hood
killing and wounding so many is characterized as
a
troubled individual who snapped, in the
mainstream media and by the highest offices in
the land. But “diversity” is still the most
important “value” we must hold. We’re seeing
young lives, brave defenders of our Republic,
mowed down before the altar of diversity and
political correctness. And they say the
“shooter” had deep psychological problems. No
kidding! He believed in killing unarmed
infidels in a sneak attack to further the cause
of jihad. When you consider the worldwide
scope of those who “believe” exactly as he did,
you might wonder whether there will be enough
Zoloft to go around. Of course they won’t be
regarded as crazy, but rather, religiously
devout.
The recent adoption of the
Lisbon Treaty, creating a single European
super state under the dull and familiar moniker
of the EU still has not merited any mainstream
attention. This is something my grandfather
warned would happen since the end of World War
II. My Dad
made countless television programs, wrote scores
of articles and letters foretelling the advent
of a United States of Europe. Well, it’s
now a reality and seemingly no one has even
noticed.
The people of the United States are
relinquishing their freedoms and individual
rights at a breakneck pace, but most are too
busy with everyday cares to realize what’s
happening. Only a minority have any idea, or
care.
A couple of weeks ago we forwarded the news of
the Vatican working to
bring Anglicans back under the Catholic umbrella.
Since then we have heard that
plans to merge the Eastern Orthodox Church with
the Vatican are also under discussion. And
no one is alarmed. A new world currency is on
the horizon. Europe is now a single political
entity and the Vatican is working rapidly toward
bringing all “Christians” under its sway. These
are all major developments that the Church of
God has expected and pointed toward since before
I was born.
The Garner Ted Armstrong program this week dealt
with the false concept of “Heaven” [believed and
taught throughout all of mainstream
Christianity] and brought 378 requests with one
hundred forty six first time contacts. Thanks
for all your help in the field. We hope you’ll
all have a great Sabbath.
