Disciple: 1/3/16

This site is made in honor of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who gave His life for me and whose blood has covered over my transgressions and thus reconciled me with the Father to whom forever be the glory!

This site contains pictures, videos, commentary, links, posts, writings,etc. meant to in one way or another, directly or indirectly lift up the Name, the ONLY name, under heaven, given to men, by which we must be saved, Jesus Christ.

The postings on this site are meant to provide the believer with uplifting testimony from the Spirit. If you are a believer and feel there is anything which may be perceived as detrimental to the cause and/or advancement of the Gospel, please let me know.

My personal writings are meant to inspire, instruct, and instill a grateful spirit, for I believe it is only right to give thanks to the One responsible for all things and to stay in constant contact with Him.

In addition, this site will in many ways help us to stay awake, as we await THE DAY! It is my firm belief that it is our generation that will come to see the events foretold and pre-ordained before the foundation of the earth spoken of through the prophets and to John, the beloved apostle who "testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ" and whose unveiling declares that "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."

Like always, LET US REJOICE IN THE LORD, as we "await in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed."

AMEN.

Current Events-Wars and rumors of war

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/01/09/video-shows-iranian-rockets-launched-near-us-carrier/78562494/

The U.S. military released a video Saturday showing what it says is an Iranian military vesselfiring several unguided rockets near the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman and other warships and commercial craft.

Iran dismissed the U.S. claim as "psychological warfare" against the Islamic Republic.

And this after Saudi Arabia executed an Iranian shiite cleric.

A reminder...Saudi Arabia and the United States are close allies.

Current Events-Chinese markets sliding

http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/markets/2016/01/06/china-stocks/78390650/

The turmoil rocking global markets in the new year looked likely to continue Thursday, after trading in China was halted today following another huge stock plunge.

The halt was the second this week for China's stock market as worries continued over its economy -- the second biggest behind the U.S. -- and North Korea's reported hydrogen bomb test.

Chinese stock exchanges closed early Thursday after the CSI 300 Index dropped more than 7%. The slide came after China's central bank lowered the yuan's daily reference rate by the most since last summer.The news out of North Korea rattled investors around the globe. The latest geopolitical flare-up in an increasingly volatile world prompted investors to sell stocks and reduce risk.

"We are just three days into the year and already global event risk is dominating the financial market landscape everywhere," David Rosenberg, chief economist and stratetist at Gluskin Sheff said in a research note.

Will 2016 be the year where the world economy collapses? Will we have digital currency by year's end? What about a new reserve currency?

ONLY TIME WILL TELL...
