Voice of America<\/em> (VOA) reported the following:<\/p>\n

February 23, 2018<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n

U.S. President Donald Trump . . .<\/p>\n

“Today I am announcing that we are launching the LARGEST-EVER set of new sanctions on the North Korean regime,” Trump will say according to advance excerpts of his speech released by the White House. “The Treasury Department will soon be taking new action to further cut off sources of revenue and fuel that the regime uses to fund its nuclear program and sustain its military by targeting 56 vessels, shipping companies, and trade businesses that are assisting North Korea in evading sanctions.”<\/p>\n

Some experts believe the additional sanctions could jeopardize the recent easement in tensions between North and South Korea. The North is participating in the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang and the two countries are preparing for more talks after recent high-level discussions earlier this month in Pyeongchang. https:\/\/www.voanews.com\/a\/trump-set-to-announce-new-sanctions-against-north-korea-\/4267503.html<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

North Korea does not want more sanctions.<\/p>\n

North Korea may retaliate.<\/p>\n

We may see war.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump warned of consequences:<\/p>\n

February 23, 2018<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump said Friday it may be \u201cvery, very unfortunate\u201d for the world if U.S. sanctions fail to stop North Korea\u2019s nuclear weapons program, as he imposed the largest U.S. penalties package yet against the rogue regime.<\/p>\n

\u201cPhase 2 might be a very rough thing,\u201d if the sanctions don\u2019t succeed, Trump added at a joint press conference Friday with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. \u201cIf we can make a deal it will be a great thing and if we can\u2019t, something will have to happen. So we\u2019ll see.\u201d https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2018-02-23\/trump-to-announce-new-round-of-sanctions-against-north-korea<\/a><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He may be referring to US military action for his Phase 2.<\/p>\n

But what about reactions from North Korea?<\/p>\n

Could there really be any kind of threat from North Korea?<\/p>\n

Yes.<\/p>\n

Notice the following from last September:<\/p>\n

\n

September 20, 2017<\/p>\n

Everyone agrees: an EMP attack over or near U.S., Japanese, or South Korean territory is a physical attack that would wreak havoc with communications, the power grid, and civilian physical infrastructure. …<\/p>\n

An EMP attack would knock out a seizure victim’s cell phone, the county EMS communication center, and the communications on the EMS ambulance. It would likely fry all of the electronics on the vehicle. If the ambulance has an electronic microchip key and a fancy-superkeen electronic ignition button, it might not even start.<\/p>\n

EMS also relies on GPS, or Global Positioning Satellite location system. An electromagnetic pulse would damage GPS receivers. An EMP’s fritzing electrons in space could impede satellite to ground signals in the area for days, even though GPS satellites orbit 22,500 miles above the Earth.<\/p>\n

An EMP attack could damage the SCADA systems monitoring and controlling critical infrastructure such as dams, factories, water and sanitation systems, oil refineries, and natural gas pipelines.<\/p>\n

In short, an EMP attack destroys the electronic neurons and sinews of modern society.<\/p>\n

North Korea could choose another option for EMP, though. PJ Media contributor Charlie Martin asked me to consider the following “gray area” scenario:<\/p>\n

What if a North Korean EMP is intended as a “demonstration”? Suppose the nuke explodes over the North Pacific in an area that, say, the geography- and technology-ignorant cable news talking heads swear is open water, thousands of miles from U.S. and Japanese territory? And they claim that the only danger at that point is Trump’s response?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The answer: a blast virtually anywhere in the atmosphere above the North Pacific would harm us. …<\/p>\n

North Korea’s “demonstration” EMP over the North Pacific, from the Equator to the Aleutians, is actually a physical attack \u2014 potentially on inhabited islands, but definitely on critical trade and transportation routes in the sea space. Moreover, sensors and communication systems in a region critical to North American strategic defense could be temporarily dazzled or even damaged. https:\/\/pjmedia.com\/trending\/2017\/09\/20\/the-u-s-must-plan-to-counterstrike-a-north-korean-emp-attack\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As I have written for years, the USA is susceptible to an emp attack from North Korea. Over four years ago, I even warned about that over the radio (see also North Korea, Barack Obama, and EMP dangers<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Since then, the North Koreans have demonstrated that they can launch ICBMs into outer space. Yet, an emp attack could harm the USA and ultimately make it more susceptible to be taken over during World War III<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While the USA could obliterate North Korea, it is at risk of severe damage from North Korea.<\/p>\n

A vengeful North Korea may have operatives try to detonate nuclear bombs and\/or dirty bombs in the USA. North Korea may attempt to unleash chemical and\/or biological weapons against the USA, South Korea, Japan, and\/or Guam. Steps to prepare for some or all of this may have been begun by the North Koreans. North Korea\u2019s leaders may well decide that if they are attacked that they should attempt to cause the most damage possible. An electromagnetic pulse weapon attack may well be involved and if North Korea detonates a hydrogen bomb above the Pacific ocean, that would seem to be a step in that direction.<\/p>\n

Jesus spoke of a time of wars, rumors of war, and troubles prior to the Great Tribulation (Mark 13:8). North Korea already is causing troubles and rumors of war.<\/p>\n

For at least three years, my article, Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse<\/a>, contained the following:<\/p>\n

There may also be wars in parts of the world that have rarely had them (perhaps, for example, even between some South American nations), as well as wars in areas that have long been especially tense (like Korea, possibly involving other Asian nations). Damascus ultimately will be destroyed and could be a signal for destruction to come for Jacob (Isaiah 17:1-4). There will likely be civil unrest and perhaps rioting on scales not seen before, including within some Western nations (such as in Europe and North America). This will lead to military leaders rising up in various parts of the world. And one European<\/a> (the final King of the North<\/a>) will, after making one or more false peace deals\/pronouncements (e.g. Daniel 9:26-27; 11:27; 1 Thessalonians 5:3), become the final Beast leader (Revelation 13:4) and he will take over many nations (Daniel 11:39-43).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

North Korea, and US President Trump’s reactions to it, are a threat to peace and seem to be related to the ride of the red horseman of war (Revelation 6:3-4).<\/p>\n

Consider watching the following:<\/p>\n

Various Europeans believe that Donald Trump has been \u2018warmongering\u2019 related to North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. They believe that Europe must lead and that the US President must learn from Europe. Jesus spoke of a time called the \u201cbeginning of sorrows\u201d that included wars and rumors of war. Are we in the time of sorrows now? Could the red horse of the apocalypse be about to ride? Did the old WCG teach this was a future event in 1985? Does this ride start before or after the start of the \u201cgreat tribulation\u201d? What does the Bible show? Is Satan involved in this? What about Armageddon? How will all of this end? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.<\/div>\n

Electrical End of the USA? <\/a><\/h3>\n

Could problems with the electrical power grid caused by one or more electo-magnetic pulse bombs, solar flares, and\/or other phenomena help weaken the USA to the point of allowing it to be taken over? Does such potential exist? If so, is this consistent with any biblical prophecies? What are some of the severe consequences that the USA would face in the event of an electrical power grid failure? Is there evidence in scripture that the USA will be taken over in the 21st century? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

North Korea poses a variety of threats to the USA. EMP matters are one of them.<\/p>\n

The USA is subject to being greatly damaged PRIOR to the start of the Great Tribulation.<\/p>\n

Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n

Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse<\/a> What do each of the four horseman of the Apocalypse represent? Have they began their ride? Did Jesus discuss the any of this? Might their rides coincide with the “beginning of sorrows? Do they start their ride prior to the Great Tribulation? Did Nostradamus or any other ‘private prophets’ write predictions that may mislead people so that they may not understand the truth of one or more of the four horseman? There is also a related YouTube video titled The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse<\/span><\/a>.
\nSyria, North Korea, and Prophecy<\/a> On April 7, 2017, 59 US Tomahawk missiles hit a military installation in Syria. While praised by NATO nations, Israel, and Saudi Arabia, this was denounced by Syria, Russia, and North Korea. Is this the start of World War III? Will the Bashar al-Assad regime remain as it is? What about North Korea? What does the Bible show will happen? Dr. Thiel answers these questions and more. This is a video.

A related video would be Is The Eurasian Union Rising?
\n<\/a>USA in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses<\/a> Can you point to scriptures, like Daniel 11:39, that point to the USA in the 21st century? This article does. A related sermon is titled: Do these 7 prophesies point to the end of the USA?<\/a>
\nWhen Will the Great Tribulation Begin? 2018, 2019, or 2020?<\/a> Can the Great Tribulation begin today? What happens before the Great Tribulation in the “beginning of sorrows”?

\nTrump Presidency Magic 8 Ball or Bible Prophecy?<\/a> BBC<\/em> reported that one might as well use a ‘Magic Eight-Ball’ to try to predict what will happen in the remaining time of Donald Trump’s presidency. What is a ‘Magic Eight-Ball’? Dr. Thiel not only explains that, but also briefly goes over 10 biblically-based warnings he wrote would happen if Donald Trump were elected that have already began to come to pass. He also goes over something he wrote back in 2008 that the Trump presidency is also helping lead to fulfillment. Should you trust Bible prophecy or not? Dr. Thiel says that Bible prophecy can be trusted, despite the view of skeptics and others that either overlook or despise the Bible. This is a video.
