Summary: America is repeating Babylon's fall forecast in Daniel, including Obamacare, New World Order, Muslim aggression and defeat. These are seen in Daniel 1,3,8 plus this parallel from Daniel 5.
The cover story of Popular Science, Sept 1995 reported a little know Pentagon project, stating that bad weather is coming. If you can control your enemy by weather, that's good, but are we the enemy? The National Weather Service tweeted that snow, ice, strong winds, and flooding will plague the East Coast from Florida to New England with record-breaking cold and the worst weather in history (again!) USA Today, 1-3-18.
Summary: The Omnibus Budget Bill to be voted Friday, Dec 11, will provide $1.2 Billion for “nearly 700,000 green cards – or lifetime residency cards – to migrants from Muslim nations over the next five years (as we did over the last five years),” said Senator Sessions of AL, re Friday’s vote. Readers should email congressman.
Starbucks was ordered by a judge to pay a woman $100,000 because the lid to her coffee popped off and she got 1st and 2nd degree burns. A 1st degree burn means erythema or redness; a 2nd degree burn means a blister forms. Too bad we can’t all get a blister from Starbucks and collect $100,000.
Summary: God has given set times [mo'ed] as appointments for us. The pope's visit to Congress falls on one of them Happiness is based on relationships described in the 10 Commandments. People who break them—people who lie, steal, kill or commit adultery are not happy people and will not be in heaven.
$46 million was paid to 68,000 MDs for their opioid prescriptions as kick-backs, according to the CDC. “This is outrageous and just the latest example of how drug companies are killing people with their products,” says Dr. Richard Ruhling, a retired physician who once relieved a doctor for a week in a pain clinic where everyone who came in was addicted to opioids or xanax. Ruhling cites his own experiences to indicate this problem shouldn’t have to exist. His solution? Doctors should quit prescribing those drugs that are so addictive.
A World Health Organization International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) report has reversed a 25-year-old categorization of coffee from a “possible carcinogen” to “inadequate evidence” that it causes cancer. (Mercola.com) They should have looked back 35 years to the New England journal of Medicine report. “A strong association between coffee consumption and pancreatic cancer was evident in both sexes” in a study of 369 cases of pancreatic cancer with 644 controls. This association was not affected by controlling for cigarette use. NEJM, 3-12-1981.r
Summary: Many see trouble coming from government spending and then printing money non-stop. And the gov is preparing for the trouble by buying billions of bullets and armored vehicles. The Bible has warnings for what we see. Before Christ saves us in the sky, heeding His words could save us in the cities. Media mogul Matt Drudge has nearly a billion visitors to Drudge.com monthly, so when he tweeted , “Have an exit plan!” What did he mean?
Summary: God has given set times [mo'ed] as appointments for us. The pope's visit to Congress falls on one of them Happiness is based on relationships described in the 10 Commandments. People who break them—people who lie, steal, kill or commit adultery are not happy people and will not be in heaven.
War, famine, earthquake, pestilence, society chaos are seen, end-times in Matthew 24. Summary: Trump’s ok of Jerusalem as capital of Israel sets the stage for a papal-influenced United Nations to react with hostility. Jerusalem’s destruction would be a sign of impending judgment on the US because the Lion of Judah will ‘roar’ from Jerusalem, Joel 3:16. That’s an earthquake at 2nd Passover with high destiny potential for Christians who believe Christ’s clues, and observe it as explained.

Summary: The Bible uses political cartoons to represent nations. In the book of Daniel we find a ram in the Middle East pushing west, but it is stomped by a goat that flies from the west “at the time of the end.” That will be the end of militant Islam, but the ram is a more noble creature than a goat as suggested by Christ when he will separate the sheep from the goats. The Quran teaches militancy that will get its adherents killed. Bible has better information on current events as they unfold.
Summary: The 3rd Commandment (Exodus 20:7) was intended to protect God's name, but when translators removed His name and replaced the four letters called the tetragrammaton, with LORD in all caps, They took His name in vain (made it empty as they made it into a generic title). Elijah turned Israel back to the true God. His name by the best evidence dating to Josephus in 70 AD, says “it consists of four vowels.”
Summary: Hebrew prophets forecast an end-time destruction of Jerusalem. Five 'when-then' signs point to 2016 for apocalyptic events. History supports Passover as a time of impending Judgment. Bible believers should consider selling Jerusalem properties and keeping Passover elsewhere.
Summary: With mounting hostility to Israel, the return of Jewish people to the land of Israel is seen a premature. This is seen from a biblical perspective that needs further consideration… As Israelites whose ancestors were conquered by the Assyrians and later scattered among the nations, we look forward to returning, but not before a serious impending event. Here’s why?
“The sun shall be darkened and the moon turned to blood before the day of the Lord,” Joel 2:31. The Bible says we “know the times and seasons perfectly,” 1Thessalonians 5:1. This suggests we should at least know the year for when "the day of the Lord" comes with “sudden destruction,” verse 2.
#1. Trump’s Making Jerusalem the capital of Israel was opposed by the pope and 126 countries in the United Nations in spite of several previous presidents agreeing to the idea but not doing it. #2. Trump’s plan to pull out of the Obama-era Iran Nuclear Treaty if Iran doesn’t make significant changes. #3. Plans to cut money given to Palestinians due to their disinterest in peace with Israel. All of these favor Turkey’s appeal to 57 Muslim nations to besiege Jerusalem, http://www.wnd.com/2018/03/57-muslim-nations-urged-to-besiege-israel/rn
Summary: The pope with more gold than anyone, is not like Donald Trump, wanting to help America to do the same. Those who don't learn from history are destined to repeat it. Trouble for America is impending as money and freedom fade. As a college student, I spent a summer in Colombia and Venezuela where I saw Communist demonstrations. Half the people couldn't read or write. They lived in poverty so that promises made by Communism found fertile soil in the hearts of poor, illiterate people.
Olimpic winners didn't get there by moderation. Moderation isn't the key to anything except mediocrity. We are under-utilizing the benefits of pure air, sunlight, absteemiousness, rest, exercise, proper diet and use of water. While a lukewarm tub-bath is relaxing example, but the extremes of hot and cold offer more health benefits as they open and close blood vessels and can even double the white blood count to aid immunity, etc.
Summary: History tends to repeat. With militant extremists who don't honor truces or peace-fires, their call for a 3rd Intifada is serious. August 7 is the 10th of Av, counting from the new moon crescent. “In the 5th month [counting from spring, Exodus 12:2] in the 10th day...Nebuchadnezzar burned the house of the LORD,” Jeremiah 52:12,13. It was the end of an era, even as it was in 70 AD when Herod's Temple was also burned on the same date according to Jewish historian, Josephus.
Summary: A complex of astronomical signs, economic conditions and sabbatical cycles point to this fall and next spring for the biblical end-times. Biblical information indicates the religious year begins in the spring, (Exod 12:2) six months after the civil year begins as currently observed in the fall, starting with Rosh Hashanah—the Feast of Trumpets on the new moon of the 7th month. Admittedly, biblical chronologies are like a land-mine that often have been blown apart by events that don't fit, but here's a view that could fit with the latter part of September being huge.
Summary: Five 'when-then' signs from 2015 signal the 'day of the Lord,' and suggest this spring. Multiple Bible texts support an earthquake as initiating the end-times. 1. “The day of the Lord” begins with an earthquake (Joel 2:10,11; Zeph 1:7,10, 1Thess 5:2,3) and it was signaled by the rare solar eclipse and blood moon at the beginning of the biblical year, March 20, 2015. “The sun shall be darkened and the moon turned to blood [paniym, facing] the day of the Lord.” Events marked 2015 as facing 2016 when we may expect “the day of the Lord” this spring.r
Summary: Governments world-wide are in a crisis that will widen and deepen till they crumble like the image in the 2nd chapter of Daniel. The US Constitution was a gift of freedom by godly men who honored the biblical model of self-gove ment. If people will not govern themselves well, there are not enough inspectors or police to control the sheeple and there will be a rebellion to the growing tyranny. The easiest example is the government healthcare plan. “Devil-in-the-details” Bureaucracy: A sample of 1%--the first 200 of 20,000 pages--
Summary: All the Protestant reformers saw the papacy as the “little horn” power claiming the title of God while persecuting the saints and changing the Commandments, Daniel 7:25. In Revelation 13, we see the beast [political cartoon] as an amalgamation of a lion, bear, leopard and dragon representing the papacy as it assimilated the customs and paganism of Babylon, Persia, Grecia and Rome that it outlived. The beast had a wound that healed and the world worships the beast.
Summary: Latin America is proof that the pope's US/UN agenda for “common good” and a New World Order has little value. South America, colonized by Catholic priests, have had Catholic government for centuries and they are still in poverty.
The Vatican strategized through Mohammed’s wife, Khadijah, a wealthy Catholic who arranged for her Catholic cousin, Waraquah, to mentor young Mohammed. (Google) more information in video link below. Both religions have Mary, Fatima and war to force conversions in common. Islam’s Quran is militant against infidels, but they learned it from Rome’s crusades to drive infidels from Jerusalem because the Vatican wanted it and still does, to be in charge of the ‘holy places.’ (Video linked below)
Summary: This topic is like a minefield with many hazardous conclusions drawn from texts taken without context. This article offers a broader spectrum of ideas and contexts than most Christians have considered. If you Google “Rapture September,” more than a million results suggest this is on people's minds. Some are even having dreams about it. Others ask, Does not knowing the day or hour apply to the 2nd coming or to the rapture?
“Like a frog that doesn't know when to jump from slowly heating water,” we are coming to the boiling point, based on biblical signs of the apocalypse. Six news items from this past year suggest that trouble is impending.
Summary: Which is the antichrist--the pope or the coming Imam Mahdi of Islam? Pat Robertson seems to be questioning the historic Protestant view of the papacy as the antichrist power, impressed with the work of Joel Richardson and a “MidEast Beast.” Before we throw the baby out with the bath water, let's consider an update to CS Lewis' Screwtape Letters, which was about the devil's strategies to deceive us. The devil has something for everyone and in the modern version, Christians can easily see how militant Islam is anti-Christ.
Summary: God has given set times [mo'ed] as appointments for us. The pope's visit to Congress falls on one of them Happiness is based on relationships described in the 10 Commandments. People who break them—people who lie, steal, kill or commit adultery are not happy people and will not be in heaven.
Science has been in the news because of the discovery of gravitational waves that Einstein, a century ago, said existed. Are we brilliant--or maybe retarded because of our unwillingness to admit something else Einstein said—that God is not a magician?
Summary: The Harbinger was about a series of events that needed explanation in Cahn's best-selling book that warns of impending judgment. Harbinger II needs little explanation except to note that the Supreme Court decision for same-sex marriage came on a date that resonates with biblical meaning for what's happening and may be confirmed within weeks.
Summary: Human wisdom tends to centralization and building big government. The European Union isn't working well, and it's an omen for what's coming under UN control. There's better information that could help us avoid serious trouble. Wisdom is looking at life from a biblical perspective. The European Union poster suggests their intent to rebuild the Tower of Babel culturally for Europe to become "one voice."
“’Muslim demonstrations’ are nothing new. Googling that phrase gives 1,300,000 results. But if one adds the word ‘violent,’ there are 2,450,000 results, suggesting that violence occurs nearly twice as often. If this happens with the result of destruction in Jerusalem, the biblical end-times are signaled,” says Richard Ruhling, author on current events and Bible prophecy, offering the following view.

Pat Robertson seems to be questioning the historic Protestant view of the papacy as the antichrist power, impressed with the work of Joel Richardson and a “MidEast Beast.” Before we throw the baby out with the bath water, let's consider an update to CS Lewis' Screwtape Letters, which was about the devil's strategies to deceive us.

Dr. Lester Breslow, Dean of UCLA’s School of Public Health, discovered that 7 Simple Health Habits make a difference in 30 years of life between the person who broke those Golden Rules compared to those who observed them. So what are they? They are best remembered by this picture and acronym– Dr. Breslow discovered the healthy people 1. Ate breakfast 2. Were not overweight. 3. Drank 5-6 glasses of water a day. 4. Got 30 minutes of exercise at least 3 times a week. 5. Got 7-8 hours of sleep at night. 6. Did not smoke. 7. Did not drink, or only in strict moderation.r
“Give me your tired, your poor…yearning to breathe free.” The Statue of Liberty has welcomed “the huddled masses” from every continent since 1865, but immigration has transformed the US. Early Americans took huge risks of death at sea and from Indians or starvation in the New World because they also faced death when the Holy Roman Empire ruled Europe.
The greatest discoveries that we can make are not those of technology, but how to have health, happiness and purposeful living that brings a better destiny, says Richard Ruhling, MD. At 75, Ruhling is enjoying all of the above better than when he was 35 and had headaches that helped him realize a basic truth, that our bodies are built from what we put in our mouths and how important it is to eat a well-balanced diet rather than what seems most appealing.
Yahoo’s report of the Met Gala had photos of numerous women wearing crowns with commentary on the crowns of kings, popes and Catholicism, mentioning the crown of thorns that Christ wore, but with no comment on the disparity. Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination (5-8-18) Maybe it’s significant that the world’s #1 best-selling book includes crowns in identifying the sea beast of Revelation 13 and early Americans saw the beast as representing the papacy. says Dr. Richard Ruhling, author on current events and The Alpha & Omega Bible Code. He explains…
What we’re seeing is a damnable practice of prescribing drugs for almost any symptoms when most problems are not serious and will get better without any treatment, or a simple change in diet. The oft-quoted JAMA figure of 106,000 Adverse Drug Reaction deaths (4-15-1998) were in hospitals, but 199,000 outpatient deaths (Western journal of Medicine, June, 2000) brought the total to 305,000 and for every death, 550 were sick enough to see their doctor, 40 were sick enough to be admitted to the hospital and 15 were admitted to long term care--messed up for life?
Summary: Christmas originated as a pagan holiday, blessed by the pope in the 4th century. Hanukkah commemorates a miraculous victory of Jews fighting for freedom ~175 BC. The birth of Christ was most likely on the Feast of Tabe acles, 500 years before the birth of Christ, the prophet Jeremiah wrote in the 10th chapter of his book not to learn the ways of the heathen who cut a tree from the forest and deck it with gold; it sounds like Christmas.
Christ implies that we don’t understand the parables—we are asleep with lights out in Matthew 25:5. The next verse says ‘midnight.’ It’s dark, and hence a need of oil in the lamps to find the way to the wedding. There is parallel imagery in the Song of Solomon representing Israel’s wisest king, the Messiah where His name is as ointment. Ointment is an oily preparation and the anointing oil used for priests had sweet spices (Exodus 30:30-34) that would be fragrant.
An email from a friend cites some guru who says next week’s eclipse means “the end of the world!” This is baloney, and probably nothing huge will happe August 21 to endorse the significance of the eclipse. “Signs of the times” should be taken in their context and it is interesting that another solar eclipse will occur in seven years with a path that marks a big ‘X’ across the US with path of August 21.
The Good News is that God is the Judge and the biblical concept of judges is that they were deliverers as seen in the book of Judges where Gideon, Samson and others delivered Israel. Daniel means ‘God is my Judge’ and we see that Daniel or his friends were delivered from potentially life or death situations in chapters 1-6 of his book. And God has a plan for us, but like Daniel, we have to be willing to go to the lion’s den to experience His deliverance.
Psychologist Wm James said, We can alter our lives by altering our attitudes. Why not start with gratitude? Dr. Hans Selye said it’s the most healing of all emotions. At its core, gratitude is being grateful that we have something and maybe also being grateful that we don’t have some other things--like thanking God for answering our prayer yes or maybe thanking Him for saying no because not everything we want is for our best good.
Summary: Jack Darnall dreamed of an African-American president with Obama's description, well-liked at first, but he became a 'terrible dictator.' The dream was not shared widely because it seemed impossible in the 1980's.
A third intifada is likely this spring (Zechariah 14:1,2) and a US megaquake in May ('as the days of Noah') because 'the day of the LORD' was signaled by the solar and lunar eclipse and Iran Nuke Treaty last year,” The view is like our connecting dots for pictures we drew as kids. In this case, various passages are connected by similar phrases, and coincidences are amazing.
Summary: America's border problem is prophetic. Rome has conquered US, and a growing majority will vote the pope as leader of a New World Order as rapid changes continue. “At the time of the end” the king of the north “overflows” the king of the south in Daniel 11:40. In Bible times, Egypt was the king of the south—south of the holy land, but in the time of the end, the US has a dozen parallels to Egypt as the greatest nation, also murdering infants or unbo as suggested by a Kindle ebook, Exodus 2. Who is the king of the north?r

Pat Robertson seems to be questioning the historic Protestant view of the papacy as the antichrist power, impressed with the work of Joel Richardson and a “MidEast Beast.” Before we throw the baby out with the bath water, let's consider an update to CS Lewis' Screwtape Letters, which was about the devil's strategies to deceive us. The devil has something for everyone and in the modern version, Christians can easily see how militant Islam is anti-Christ.
Summary: College isn't needed for most jobs. College costs too much and has too much we don't need or want. Wikipedia lists many trades for which training costs less, takes less time and has a higher likelihood for a job.
