2023: A Year When Everything Is Suddenly Breaking Loose All At Once
If it seems to you like everything is breaking loose all at once, it isn’t just your imagination. At the beginning of January, I warned that the overall theme of this year would be “here we go”, and global events have certainly been accelerating … we are in the midst of the worst banking crisis since 2008. … 186 more banks are now at risk of failing, and if large numbers of banks do collapse in the months ahead that could push us over the edge into a severe economic depression. So it is the perfect time for the elite to distract us with a major political stunt so that we will all take our eyes off of the financial disaster that is rapidly unfolding all around us… criminals … are “allowed to roam the streets”, a CNN crew in San Francisco … got robbed again even though they had actually brought along a security guard to protect their vehicles…
In Portland, addicts literally smoke fentanyl right in front of children in broad daylight and the authorities do nothing…
This is our country now.
We are a complete and total mess, and our problems just get worse with each passing month.
For example, our proxy war with Russia is getting dangerously close to becoming a shooting war. …
We are definitely living during a time of wars and rumors of wars.
And we are also witnessing major earthquakes in diverse places. …
back on March 12th the sun released an absolutely gigantic coronal mass ejection…
Meanwhile, people continue to mysteriously collapse all around us. …
Each one of us is ingesting quite a bit of plastic each week, and all of that plastic is literally ripping up our insides…
All of human history has been building up to a grand crescendo, and we get to be here for it.
Personally, there is no other time in human history that I would have rather lived than right now.
So don’t get down about all of the bad things that are happening.
Instead, focus on what you can do to make a difference for good. 03/19/23 http://endoftheamericandream.com/2023-a-year-when-everything-is-suddenly-breaking-loose-all-at-once/
As far as signs of the end go, the Continuing Church of God put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
These Signs of the 4 Horsemen Have Begun
Are we at the time of the ride of at least some of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse? If so, are many prophecy watchers missing signs associated with them? History shows that authoritarian totalitarian regimes tend to arise after famines and/or pestilences. Those are events associated with three of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. Could the beginning of sorrows, and the associated ride of the first horseman of false ecumenical religion, have started in the Fall of 2009? What is the significance of this rider having a bow? Is Satan the prince of the power of the air? Did Dr. Thiel warn of a prophetic threat of a “novel” coronavirus back in 2013? Could COVID-19 been related to the taking away the peace from the earth that is associated with the ride of the red horse, the second horsemen of war? What are some of the ramifications of the Russia-Ukraine military conflict and the opening of the second seal? Was Amos inspired to write that God does nothing without revealing it to his servants the prophets? Who warned of these matters? The ride of the third horse, the black horse of famine and food price inflation–specifically wheat, barley, edible oils, and wine. Since Ukraine is a major exporter of the first three, could this, as well as fertilizer shortages, have anything to do with the ride of that horseman? The pale horse of the fourth seal mentions one-quarter of humankind being subject to being killed by the sword, hunger, and pestilence–will this be a factor in the rise of the Beast of Revelation 13? Is persecution associated with the start of the Great tribulation and the rise of the Beast? Why is the Beast going to be in charge of a European-based empire? Will the opening of the first four seals and the starts of the rides of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse get Europe to reorganize such as is prophesied in Revelation 17:12-13? What does Jesus say you should do? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more in this video.
Here is a link to our video: These Signs of the 4 Horsemen Have Begun.
Now, Michael Snyder wrote that we should focus on doing good. Christians are to seek first the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33).
As far as being ready to do things in these times, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) put together the following video for our Bible News Prophecy program:
‘Get Ready: The World is About to Need You’
According to a secular source, related to COVID-19, Matt Smith wrote, “We could have been better prepared.” He also went over many issues, including lockdowns, illness, and deaths that should be anticipated related to COVID-19. But he then said, “Get ready. The world is about to need you.” Are you willing to step up spiritually and support the Philadelphian work? Most end time Christians are prophesied not to do so. Do the words the Mordecai passed on to Queen Esther have meaning for you today? Could you have been called into the Kingdom of God for a time such as this? What are the plans that God might have for you? Are you one who may have been prophesied to “instruct many” in the end time? Are you watching and praying? Are you cold or lukewarm when it comes to God’s work? Are you mainly a hearer of the word of a doer? Dr. Thiel goes over these subjects.
Here is a link to our video: ‘Get Ready: The World is About to Need You’.
And for Philadelphian Christians, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) put out the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
Will YOU Instruct Many?
Christians are always supposed to be able to give ‘an answer’ (KJV) ‘a defense’ (NKJV) according to the Apostle Peter. There are prophecies concerning witnesses in the end times that will “instruct many.” Will you be among them? Are there materials that you can study now which may increase the chance that God will use YOU as one of His witnesses to instruct many in these end times.
Here is a link to the video: Will YOU Instruct Many?
God’s plan is a mystery to most.
God’s purpose for His creation is for eternity to be better.
Because God exists, yes, it makes perfect sense that He has a purpose for EACH and EVERY human life.
The Apostle Paul wrote:
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)
What is His purpose?
His purpose for individual human beings is for them to be able to give love in a unique way to make eternity better for themselves and everyone else.
More scriptural and other details are in the free online book: The MYSTERY of GOD’s PLAN Why Did God Create Anything? Why did God make you?
Regarding why this world needs you, you might find the following Continuing Church of God sermon helpful:
Why did God make YOU? What is the biblical meaning pf life? Are you supposed to do good? Is there a place for works? What will you be rewarded for? What about love and the commandments? Does God have a specific role for you personally? Do you really trust God? Will you be able to give love in a unique manner in order to make eternity better for yourself and others? What about character and deification? Why did God create anything? This is third part of a three-part sermon series by Dr. Thiel.
This sermon series is based on the following free online book: The MYSTERY of GOD’s PLAN Why Did God Create Anything? Why did God make you?
Here is a link to the sermon: The Mystery of YOU.
Yes, life has a purpose!
And if you are willing, you can make eternity better for yourself and all who will later hear God’s call.
That is beautiful!
We also have the following new video:
Could God be Creating Something Beautiful in You?
A report based on CDC data showed a massive increase in hopelessness and sadness in American teenage females. Plus, 30% reported considering suicide. Does God have a plan for you? Jared Dyson asserted that God is creating something beautiful in you.” Is that possible? Is there really a God? Can you prove if God exists? If so, does His purpose for you involve something beautiful? Do all the tests, sufferings, and trials you have been through in this life have any eternal purpose? Could they be preparing you to give love in a unique manner in order for you to make eternity better for yourself and everyone else? Does God actually consider all the works and issues you have faced? Do you, as an individual, have a unique role that God knows? Can Jesus help you when you are facing difficulties? Could your purpose in this life be to build character so that you can maximize your potential and increase how much you can make eternity better? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel address these issues.
Here is a link to our video: Could God be Creating Something Beautiful in You?
