A rainbow Pride flag could start flying in front of Arroyo Grande City Hall next month if the City Council approves a new policy on commemorative flags at its meeting Tuesday.<\/p>\n

According to a staff report released Friday<\/a>, the Arroyo Grande City Council is considering adopting a policy that would allow the city to fly commemorative flags at City Hall and Heritage Square Park, including the rainbow flag also known as the Pride flag.<\/p>\n

Traditionally the city has flown only the U.S. flag, the California state flag and the Arroyo Grande city flag, according to the staff report. https:\/\/www.sanluisobispo.com\/news\/local\/article251591873.html#storylink=cpy<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Promoting abominations is becoming the “New Normal.” Instead of condemning sexual immorality, more and more in society are celebrating and\/or approving of it. This will end in destruction according to the Bible (cf. Romans 1:18-32).<\/p>\n

Michael Snyder posted the following about his views of the “New Normal” and where this is heading:<\/p>\n

Thoughts On The \u201cNew Normal\u201d And The Things That We Are Losing As A Society\u2026<\/h2>\n

The last two years have greatly shaken America, and our country will never be the same as a result. If you would have told someone two years ago that in 2021 millions of people would run around wearing masks all day and that the federal government would be relentlessly pushing a large scale mass injection campaign, that person probably would have thought that you were nuts. But now this is the \u201cnew normal\u201d. Our freedoms and liberties have been permanently eroded, and now that they have gotten away with pushing the envelope so dramatically, government entities on all levels will be ready to flex their muscles again once the next major crisis comes along. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The last couple of years have been extremely painful for our economy as well. More than 70 million Americans filed new claims for unemployment benefits last year, homeless encampments started popping up like mushrooms all over the country, and countless numbers of small businesses shut down permanently….<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We are also losing the peace on our streets. Murder rates were way up in major cities all over America in 2020, and in most of those cities they are even higher this year. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These days, we seem to be losing control of just about everything, and that even includes the technology that we have become so dependent upon. Hackers are causing nightmares for large entities all over the U.S. …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

America no longer resembles the nation that our founders sacrificed so much to establish, and if we stay on the path that we are currently on there is no future ahead for us<\/a>. 05\/20\/21 http:\/\/theeconomiccollapseblog.com\/thoughts-on-the-new-normal-and-the-things-that-we-are-losing-as-a-society\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yes, the USA will have no future as it will be gone, likely within the next decade. Michael Snyder did not mention the LGBTQ+ agenda, abortion, males competing as females, nor the acceptance of the massive deficits as part of the “New Normal” that will contribute to the end of the USA–but biblically they are factors (cf. Jude 7, 2 Peter 2:6, Habakkuk 2:6-8).<\/p>\n

A combination of factors will cause its end. Notice some items from my book Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Like many politicians, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, do not meet the following leadership criteria:<\/p>\n

21<\/sup> Moreover you shall select from all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; (Exodus 18:19)<\/p>\n

3 <\/sup>The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: \u2018He who rules over men must be just, Ruling in the fear of God. (2 Samuel 23:3)<\/p>\n

This does not bode well for the U.S.A.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the Bible warns against the type of moral decline that is occurring in the U.S.A.:<\/p>\n

12<\/sup> Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel: \u201cBecause you despise this word, And trust in oppression and perversity, And rely on them, 13 <\/sup>Therefore this iniquity shall be to you<\/strong> Like a breach ready to fall, A bulge in a high wall, Whose breaking comes suddenly, in an instant<\/strong>. (Isaiah 30:12-13)<\/p>\n

But how can this happen to the U.S.A.? It will likely happen with a combination of events. Notice:<\/p>\n

5<\/sup> \u201cMoreover the multitude of your foes Shall be like fine dust, And the multitude of the terrible ones Like chaff that passes away; Yes, it shall be in an instant, suddenly. 6<\/sup> You will be punished by the Lord of hosts with thunder and earthquake and great noise, With storm and tempest and the flame of devouring fire. (Isaiah 29:5-6)<\/p>\n

The debt situation of the U.S.A. is putting it at risk of being unable to recover should it be hit by weather problems, terrorist acts, war, riots, solar flares, severe earthquakes, civil unrest, devastation of their genetically-modified food supplies, food shortages, and\/or various pestilences\u2013an intensity of \u201csorrows\u201d such as Jesus discussed in Matthew 24:4-8 leading up to the time of the Great Tribulation. Political issues, climate change, trade policies, communication\u2019s deals, and other events are pushing the U.S.A. to a position that will encourage its takeover someday. Disasters, especially if there is an ElectroMagnetic Pulse (EMP) attack, a severe solar flare storm, devastating hurricane (s) something like a massive volcanic eruption and\/or massive earthquake could be part of a so-called \u201cperfect storm\u201d of events that could set up the U.S.A. for destruction.<\/p>\n

Consider the devastation of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina. Multiply that by other disasters. The U.S.A. is at risk. Notice, also, the following related to Dr. Michio Kaku\u2019s assessment of Yellowstone:<\/p>\n

Scientists assure us that one day the absolutely massive Yellowstone supervolcano will once again experience a Category 8 eruption, and if it happened today it would \u201cliterally tear the guts out of the United States of America\u201d … \u201cInstead of having 50 states of the Union, we would have 30 states of the Union.\u201d (Snyder M. As Yellowstone Awakens, Dr. Michio Kaku Warns That It Could \u201cLiterally Tear The Guts Out Of The United States Of America\u201d. Economic Collapse Blog, February 2019)<\/p>\n

A \u2018perfect storm\u2019 of disasters, internal strife, and misplaced confidences will make the U.S.A. a nation that can be defeated.<\/p>\n

Many sorrows that the U.S.A. will face, like severe weather problems, diseases and earthquakes, will happen in the future, irrespective of who is in the White House (Amos 4:7-10; Luke 21:11). Joe Biden and Kamala Harris look to hasten the day of destruction. (Thiel B. Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction<\/a>. Nazarene Books, January 2021)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While we are not to that point yet, there are prophecies that point to the USA being gone by 2028. Related to that, we put out the following video:<\/p>\n

Is the USA prophesied to be destroyed by 2028?<\/a><\/h3>\n

Are there prophetic reasons to believe that the USA will not last two complete presidential terms? Yes. There is a tradition attributed to the Hebrew prophet Elijah that humanity had 6,000 years to live before being replaced by God\u2019s Kingdom. There are scriptures, writings in the Talmud, early Christian teachings that support this. Also, even certain Hindu writings support it. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here is a summary of ten items to consider: <\/span><\/p>\n

1. If as the School of Elijah taught, that God inspired Elijah to state that the world as we have known it would last 6,000 years, to be followed by a thousand year sabbatical time, which Jewish tradition (Talmud, Tractate Sanhedrin [97a]) and early Christian traditions records (e.g. Irenaeus, a hearer of Polycarp. Adversus haereses, Book V, Chapter 30:4), then we are getting close to the end of that time. <\/span><\/p>\n

2. And if, consistent with scriptures in both the Old and New Testaments, we can apply the concept that a thousand years is as a day to God (Psalm 90:4; 2 Peter 3:8). <\/span><\/p>\n

3. And if, as generally understood in the Church of God that Jesus was killed and resurrected no later than the Spring of 31 A.D. on Passover. <\/span><\/p>\n

4. And if we can presume that the \u201clast days\u201d of a 7,000 year prophetic week began AFTER the middle day (day 4), then the last days prior to the \u201csabbatical\u201d time which some would refer to as the millennial Kingdom of God, would last two thousand years. <\/span><\/p>\n

5. And if when Peter referred to being in the last days (Acts <\/span>2:17-18) and since Hebrews 1:1-12 teaches that \u201cGod \u2026 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

6. Then adding 2,000 years to a period of time leads to the end of the 6,000 years no later than 2031 (and it could be earlier than that). <\/span><\/p>\n

7. Since the Great Tribulation is expected to start 3 1\/2 years prior to that (cf. Revelation <\/span>12:14; 13:5) subtracting 3 1\/2 years from the Spring of 2031 would be late in 2027. <\/span><\/p>\n

8. Understand that the U.S.A. is prophesied to be taken over near the rise of the Beast and start of the Great Tribulation (cf. Daniel <\/span>11:39; Jeremiah 30:7; Matthew <\/span>24:21-22). <\/span><\/p>\n

9. Therefore, since the end of two full U.S.A. presidential terms would end in January of 2029, these prophetic understandings point to the end of the U.S.A. prior to two full presidential terms. <\/span><\/p>\n

10. This is also consistent with certain Hindu and Roman Catholic prophetic writings as well. This video gives more details and quotes which point to the destruction of the United States of America by 2028.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The USA is pushing immorality, notice something else from my book Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Here is what the Biden-Harris Administration\u2019s top priority is:<\/p>\n

The Equality Act is the best vehicle for ensuring equal rights under the law for LGBTQ+ Americans, and will guarantee that LGBTQ+ individuals are protected under existing civil rights laws. Biden will make enactment of the Equality Act during his first 100 days as President a top legislative priority<\/strong>. Biden will also direct his Cabinet to ensure immediate and full enforcement of the Equality Act across all federal departments and agencies. \u2026 End the misuse of broad exemptions to discriminate. <\/strong>Religious freedom is a fundamental American value. But states have inappropriately used broad exemptions to allow businesses, medical providers, social service agencies, state and local government officials, and others to discriminate against LGBTQ+ people. Guaranteeing transgender students have access to facilities based on their gender identity\u2026 <\/strong>Biden will reverse Trump\u2019s policies misusing these broad exemptions and fight so that no one is turned away from a business or refused service by a government official just because of who they are or who they love. [The Biden Plan to Advance LGBTQ+ Equality in America and Around the World. JoeBiden.com accessed 10\/16\/20]<\/p>\n

The above is a concern to many people who believe that they will be discriminated against if they hold to various religious and\/or biblical beliefs on sexuality. Claiming religious freedom is \u201ca fundamental American value\u201d (which is clearly stated in the U.S. Constitution) while at the same time saying it must be not allowed for certain matters is wrong, insincere, and hypocritical.<\/p>\n

The Bible, KJV translation, predicts the end of \u201can hypocritical nation\u201d (Isaiah 10:5-11).<\/p>\n

That being said, despite the Biden-Harris priorities and what has so far happened with matters like COVID-19, I can state with biblical assurance that the time that the Bible calls the \u201cGreat Tribulation\u201d (Matthew 24:21) will NOT begin until sometime after the first presidential term of Joe Biden ends.<\/p>\n

However, the end of the 6,000 years God has granted humanity to rule itself will likely be over within the next decade or so (some details are in Chapter 6 and a more detailed discussion of this is in an article at the website www.cogwriter.com). Thus, simply by the virtue of timing, Joe Biden is destined to take steps that ultimately will aid in the fulfillment of end-time biblical prophecies. Furthermore, several of the stated policies for the Biden-Harris Administration have biblical ramifications.<\/p>\n

For example, as president, Joe Biden will have to deal with the fact that the U.S.A. is the most indebted nation in the history of humanity. Plus, he has pledged increasing it further. (Thiel B. Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction<\/a>. Nazarene Books, January 2021)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here is what Joe Biden officially released about the ‘Equality Act’:<\/p>\n

I applaud Congressman David Cicilline and the entire Congressional Equality Caucus for introducing the Equality Act in the House of Representatives yesterday, and I urge Congress to swiftly pass this historic legislation. Every person should be treated with dignity and respect, and this bill represents a critical step toward ensuring that America lives up to our foundational values of equality and freedom for all.<\/p>\n

Full equality has been denied to LGBTQ+ Americans and their families for far too long. Despite the extraordinary progress the LGBTQ+ community has made to secure their basic civil rights, discrimination is still rampant in many areas of our society. The Equality Act provides long overdue federal civil rights protections on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, locking in critical safeguards in our housing, education, public services, and lending systems \u2014 and codifying the courage and resilience of the LGBTQ+ movement into enduring law.<\/p>\n

On my first day in office, I was proud to sign an Executive Order on Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation<\/a>. I directed agencies to implement the Supreme Court\u2019s Bostock <\/em>ruling, and fully enforce Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other laws that prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation. Now, it\u2019s time for Congress to secure these protections once and for all by passing the Equality Act \u2014 because no one should ever face discrimination or live in fear because of who they are or whom they love. https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2021\/02\/19\/statement-by-president-joseph-r-biden-jr-on-the-introduction-of-the-equality-act-in-congress\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As far as “whom they love” goes, the Bible clearly condemns sexual sins (and many as abominable–e.g. Deuteronomy 22:5; Leviticus 20:13)–which is something the Biden-Harris Administration should do, but instead promotes as “moral.” Related to that we put out the following video:<\/p>\n

USA pushing (im)\u2019moral leadership\u2019?<\/a><\/h3>\n

he Biden-Harris Administration has issues memorandums in order to provide funding and other support for abortions and the LGBTQI+ agenda in the USA and around the world. This funding will also increase USA debt\u2013this is in addition to something that Kamala Harris also did when she voted to add an additional $1.9 trillion in debt. The Biden-Harris Administration wants to punish foreign nations not onboard with its LGBTQI+ policies. Joe Biden said his Administration was doing this to help repair the USA\u2019s \u201cmoral leadership\u201d internationally. Is this promotion of immoral sins going to lead to destruction of the USA, perhaps by 2028? Can the strongest military in the world be taken over? Is the USA prophesied to repent or be take over if it does not repent? Dr. Thiel covers these topics and reveals biblical answers to these questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Joe Biden\u2019s \u2018War on Women\u2019: Equality Act to End Legal Recognition of Biological Sex<\/h2>\n

February 19, 2021<\/p>\n

President Joe Biden released a statement Friday urging Congress to \u201cswiftly pass\u201d the Equality Act, a bill that would eliminate the legal recognition of male and female sex, cater to gender ideology, and designate protection for the unborn as \u201cpregnancy\u201d discrimination.<\/p>\n

The House is expected to vote on the Equality Act, H.R. 5<\/a>, next week. The legislation, which would rewrite civil rights law to include \u201csexual orientation and gender identity\u201d as protected classes, would likely upend the national culture as Americans have known it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe so-called Equality Act is legislative malpractice that turns equality on its head,\u201d said <\/a>Ryan Anderson, president of Ethics & Public Policy Center (EPPC), in a statement. \u201cIt isn\u2019t drafted as a shield to protect vulnerable minorities from unjust discrimination, but as a sword to persecute those who do not embrace new sexual and gender ideologies.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anderson underscored the tremendous impact the legislation will have on the privacy of women and girls, as well as the punitive consequences to which faith-based institutions and organizations will be exposed at its hands:<\/p>\n

It sacrifices the equality, safety, and privacy of women, while privileging men who identify as women: If this bill becomes law, they\u2019d have a civil right to spend the night in a battered women\u2019s shelter, disrobe in a women\u2019s locker room, and compete on a women\u2019s sports team\u2014even children at K-12 public schools.<\/p>\n

Religious institutions fare no better. Religious schools, adoption agencies, and other charities would face federal sanction for operating according to basic biology and mainstream Biblical teaching on sex and marriage. Outrageously, this act exempts itself from the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Pope Francis would be treated as the legal equivalent of a Jim Crow segregationist.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Anderson noted that any questioning of transgender medical treatments and surgeries would be labeled \u201cdiscrimination\u201d if the Equality Act becomes law.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd any refusal to support or provide abortions would now be treated as \u2018pregnancy\u2019 discrimination,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd no one\u2014not even the act\u2019s sponsors\u2014can tell us what would be required under the act to avoid committing \u2018discrimination\u2019 in the case of \u2018non-binary\u2019 gender identities.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

A new study that examined students who claim to have gender identity issues found that, compared with 45% of students who are comfortable with their biological sex, 78% of gender-disturbed students met the criteria for at least one mental health problem. https:\/\/t.co\/VzNAYJFNs5<\/a><\/p>\n
