But by taking bold measures, we aim to be the world’s first to come out of recession,” he said. <\/span><\/p>\n In Moscow, a top Kremlin economic aide said there would be a budget deficit in 2009 for the first time for a decade as Russia — the world’s second-biggest producer of crude oil after Saudi Arabia — reels from the global crisis…<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n In Asian stock markets, Tokyo tumbled 2.37 percent and Chinese shares closed down 1.76 percent. European stocks were also down, with the FTSE 100 in London down 1.03 percent and CAC 40 in Paris down 0.41 percent. <\/span><\/p>\n Newspaper reports in crisis-hit Germany, Europe’s biggest economy, said the government was planning a second stimulus programme for 2009 that could see the government pump 40 billion euros (56 billion dollars) into the economy. <\/span>http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/article.php?id=081224121657.nzbe1e1i&show_article=1<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n However, the end (meaning the Great Tribulation) is not yet and will not occur for at least 3 1\/2 more years.\u00a0 But there may rough times before it gets really bad.<\/p>\n But people should not wait until the Great Tribulation to do what is right.<\/p>\n This is one of the many reasons that I advise those who wish to be faithful to heed the call in Zephaniah:<\/p>\n 1 Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together<\/strong>, O undesirable nation,\u00a0 2 Before the decree is issued<\/strong>, Or the day passes like chaff, Before the LORD\u2019s fierce anger comes upon you, Before the day of the LORD\u2019s anger comes upon you!\u00a0 3 Seek the LORD, all you meek of the earth, Who have upheld His justice. Seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden In the day of the LORD\u2019s anger<\/strong> (Zephaniah 2:1-3).<\/p>\n It does make sense for those who wish to be faithful to check out my writings and compare them to the BIble.\u00a0 Notice:<\/p>\n 10 Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so <\/strong>(Acts 17:10-11).<\/p>\n It is my hope and prayer that those that do will support the Living Church of God<\/a> and \u201cgather together\u201d with us before it is too late.<\/p>\n Several articles of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n China, Its Biblical Past and Future, Part 1: Genesis and Chinese Characters<\/a> This article provides information showing that the Chinese peoples must have known about various accounts in the Book of Genesis up until their dispersion after the Tower of Babel.
