WASHINGTON — President Obama will ask Congress for $1.8 billion in emergency funding to combat the Zika virus through mosquito control programs, vaccine research, education and improving health care for low-income pregnant women, the White House said Monday.

Asked how the government would pay for the $1.8 billion plan, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said, "Those are the kinds of things Congress will have to work out."

Tack another 1.8 bil to the bill. At least this is for a good cause.

Current Events-Babylonian Economy

http://www.usdebtclock.org/

17 million +is the US debt as of today, and counting. You don't need a degree to understand that this trend will lead to an economic collapse that most in the US have no idea is coming because of normalcy bias.

The US dollar is currently the reserve currency of the world and the means by which all oil is traded. Once this status is taken away-as a byproduct of other nations' lack faith in the United States' ability to repay debt-things will take a turn for the worse for Babylon. Indeed, ensuing chaos will lead Americans to beg the United Nations to restore order. The economic destruction of the world's only obstacle to a socialist new order, and its lone superpower, will have been methodically carried out by none other than the mahdi, or the enemy within.

The american populace isn't without fault though. Its worship of idols and black magic have reached levels of hypnosis which are obvious to those who refuse to adhere to babylonian norms.

CATONSVILLE, Md. (AP) — President Barack Obama sought Wednesday to correct what he called a "hugely distorted impression" of Muslim-Americans as he made his first visit to a U.S. mosque. 

For Obama, the visit reflected a willingness to wade into touchy social issues that often eluded him earlier in his presidency. For years, Obama has fought incorrect claims that he's actually a Muslim and was born in Kenya, beliefs that polls suggest remain prevalent among many Republicans. Obama, a Christian, was born in Hawaii.

ESCHATOLOGY

The 'end of days' is a time period of high importance for the monotheist. It marks the beginning of the end for many, and the beginning of forever for others.
The last days will be a time of chaos in which events will take place in an unprecedented form. Supernatural phenomena will abound, and the inhabitants of the earth will be tested. It is important to point out that islamic eschatology gets much of its endtime prophecy from the Bible. Islamic scholars are always quick to suggest that the Bible has been corrupted but yet they pick texts from this 'corrupt' source to formulate their own endtimes views.

It is simple. Jesus said 'you are the LIGHT of the world'. 'He that is not for us is against us'. Light and darkness have nothing in common. Light discloses EVERYTHING. Darkness CONCEALS everything. It is interesting to read literature that involves islam and substitute the term islam for darkness to see if and how the substance of these messages change.

The differences between the lie and the Truth is essential to the understanding of how climactic and dramatic the endtimes will be. It will truly be a time where faith will manifest itself for there will be such a strong delusion at the time, that no one will be able to FIGURE out what is the Truth and what is the lie. It will simply be a matter of what you believe. This is absolutely genial. Given that God has ordained things from the beginning, it is easy to see how only God could design such a plan with divine power/intelligence. In essence, God removes logic and reason for the purpose of faith revealing. Many times we act in certain ways because we can conclude what the outcome would be. We are calculators. However, in the end of days, trying to FIGURE out things may be what dooms people.


It all begins with the rise of satan's messiah(antichrist). Since satan's existence revolves around God, it is only expected that satan try and duplicate the work of God in an effort to deceive many. Just as God manifested Himself in the flesh, so also satan will do the same. Just as Christ was resurrected, satan too will try and duplicate that.

The plot thickens when it is realized that the seed of Ishmael has an endtimes manifestation in accordance to its scriptures that can also be found in the Bible. Whereas many Christians think that all other texts are worth discarding, one would be wise in examining the scriptures that originate from the seed of Ishmael to see how EXACTLY SIMILAR the two accounts are in terms of personas. Islam like Christianity has a messiah, or the MAHDI. The mahdi is the major sign that indicates endtimes. The mahdi will usher in a socialist revolution that will be backed by all. Socialism/communism removes God from the equation and gives people the false impression that an utopia has been achieved. Anytime you remove God from the equation, you remove Light. God /LIGHT HAS to be removed in order for people to remain unaware that this utopia is really a lie.

The mahdi will run a government for ALL. All for one and one for all. HUMANS are god! he will exclaim and proclaim. Since religion plays a major role in the world, the mahdi's solution to bring unity on that spectrum would be to appear muslim to the muslim, atheist to the atheist, agnostic to the agnostic, hindu to the hindu, buddhist to the buddhist, etc. The reason why I dont mention Christians with that list is because Christians, the LIGHT of the world, can not only see darkness but can also REVEAL or DISPLAY it thus spoiling the selfish party. It is ultimately a matter of self vs God. Wasn't it so with satan and God? PRIDE?

Religious or philosophical utopia would be achieved by means of 'tolerance'. This can be easily achieved because the 'minor' religions have no concrete truth about them in terms of deity. They are simply looking for someone who wants to do 'good' or further the advancement of the human race, for if you have no god or if you have many gods, God isn't God, YOU are god. In fact, it is no major thing to say to a buddhist Jesus is God because there is no god in buddhism. They just look at what you do. This helps us to further solidify that what you 'confess with your mouth and believe in your heart' is just as important if not more important than what you do. ESCHATOLOGY ASIDE, HERE IS AN IMPORTANT UNDERSTANDING:

For the believer, the importance of what I do is only important because of what I believe. If I didn't believe what i believe, then my deeds would testify to nothing thus making deeds pointless. I do what I do because it serves as evidence for what I know to be true. For the unbeliever, their deeds are only important because they lead to glory, since there is no reason that can serve as a precedent. Walking the walk only matters if talking the talk took place. The following illustration can help with cause and effect:

BELIEVER                  BELIEF -------> DEEDS ---------> GLORY---------> GOD
NON BELIEVER                                DEEDS--------->GLORY----------->SELF

The two main differences: The non believer lacks foundation/beginning which ultimately leads to glorification of self.



BACK TO ESCHATOLOGY...

The concept of blasphemy only arises when a deity is assumed. In hinduism, there are MANY gods, so the value ONE god has to them really is irrelevant since they have a choice to pick from. There is no such thing as blasphemy in the 'minor' religions. However, there is 'blasphemy' in islam. So in order for the mahdi to appeal to the muslims, HE HAS to appear muslim enough, even if he appears something else, in order to get darkness to accept darkness. But how does darkness know what it is when it can't see itself? Now, this is where the nature of islam comes into play because islam is a religion of darkness, hence its primary symbol being the moon(the light of the night). Islam advocates for deceit(altaqiya/kithman) when the reason to lie would further the dark cause/agenda. In essence, if you can lie to others, you can lie to anyone, including yourself. When you lie to yourself, depending how far you go with it, you can even think yourself god! Darkness revels in darkness because darkness never reveals anything. All darkness does is go around in circles. It doesn't stand for anything because it can't see itself standing. The only things it does is perpetuate deceit so that MORE deceit can be born. It is a vicious cycle. Now, are muslims the only seeds of darkness? By no means. Anyone who lies is a seed of darkness and anyone who encourages darkness hates the light. The danger in allowing for deceit is that you let yourself pave your own way or manipulate everything in order to reach your goal which you claim is allah's will. In essence, allah can be perceived as self since one is allowed to think that what one is doing, whatever it is, one is doing it for allah. If a person can lie himself to the top, he would do it. He would give allah the glory, but then in reality he would only be giving glory to himself. For if one lies for allah and becomes god, then who is allah? Was allah the tool he simply used to permit himself to do everything he wanted to do in the 1st place?

Since the mahdi can't fool christians and the Truth, he will persecute them because they refuse to dwell in darkness. He will appeal to the rest of the world by suggesting he can identify with everyone. He is whatever an individual wants him to be. He is everything an individual wants him to be.  Obviously, this is only accomplished via deception. However, since deception reigns in these days, deception is accepted.  Here is what I gather from both sets of eschatology...

The muslim mahdi/messiah is the christian antichrist.*

Current Events-The Mark

http://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/will-microchips-in-your-hand-replace-passports/ar-BBoSFZl?ocid=spartandhp

Travel technology has come a long way in the past few years. There are digital bag tags from Lufthansa, suitcases with built-in charging portals, and robots to bring you hotel snacks (and park your car). A biometric development, however, may be the most far-out of them all: the ability to travel without a ticket, boarding pass, or passport thanks to a small, rice-sized chip embedded beneath the skin.

Crazy? Maybe. But the technological development has its adherents. Created by a company called Dangerous Things, the near-field communication (NFC) chip allows passengers to load personal information that can be recognized by NFC-compliant devices—think tapping your iPhone at a checkout when using Apple Pay, or scanning digital boarding passes on smartphones at the airport. And while the development isn't necessarily new news (a 2013 Indiegogo campaign raised $30,619), a Dutch tech entrepreneur named Andreas Sjöström recently used the chip in an experiment with Scandinavian Airlines at Stockholm's Arlanda Airport. He sailed through without issue, becoming the first person to use an embedded chip to board a flight.

Wow...now that's convenient. I assume many would jump at the opportunity not realizing this is just part of the conditioning process.

Current Events-US/World Economy

http://www.cnbc.com/2016/01/15/a-recession-worse-than-2008-is-coming-commentary.html

The S&P 500 has begun 2016 with its worst performance ever. This has prompted Wall Street apologists to come out in full force and try to explain why the chaos in global currencies and equities will not be a repeat of 2008. Nor do they want investors to believe this environment is commensurate with the dot-com bubble bursting. They claim the current turmoil in China is not even comparable to the 1997 Asian debt crisis. 

Indeed, the unscrupulous individuals that dominate financial institutions and governments seldom predict a down-tick on Wall Street, so don't expect them to warn of the impending global recession and market mayhem.

But a recession has occurred in the U.S. about every five years, on average, since the end of WWII; and it has been seven years since the last one — we are overdue. 

Therefore, expect more stress on multinational corporate earnings as global growth continues to slow. But the debt debacle in China is not the primary catalyst for the next recession in the United States. It is the fact that equity prices and real estate values can no longer be supported by incomes and GDP. And now that the Federal Reserve'squantitative easing and zero interest-rate policy have ended, these asset prices are succumbing to the gravitational forces of deflation.

Last year, it spent a big chunk of the county’s foreign-exchange reserves to prop up the yuan. State-media have warned speculators, including billionaire investor George Soros, to back off and not short-sell the currency.

And yet the yuan keeps falling -- hitting a five-year low earlier this month and taking its drop over the past year to more than 5 percent. The PBOC doesn’t act with complete independence and sometimes bends to the will of the government, where some officials might be tempted to boost the export sector by guiding the currency down further.

What goes up....must come down.

Policy makers in developing countries can remember the last two times the dollar went through periods of sharp appreciation. There was the first half of the 1980s, when Latin America fell into what is remembered today as the “lost decade,” and the second half of the 1990s, when much of Asia ended up underwater. The memories aren’t pleasant.

I know...I was there.

Words of encouragement

I would like to share the following words of encouragement. And a big thanks to big Nate, the man who composed it...

Stay strong brother.

                                        
                                                              Seasonal Unrest
                                                                 

                                                              By Nate Peavy

Truly, the recent snowfall has been great and anxieties are understandably present

Caught in the windstorms of life too, can cause to be unpleasant..

Seasonal unrest, has made many of us unstable and topsy turvvy
And its a struggle getting recalibrated back on the road of our journey.

The roads are still being plowed, as snow is being removed.
And for those of us receiving this poem, I pray each of us be soothed.

Be wooed by the Presence of God, even in the midst of the storm and travail.
Even when we are confined to our homes, like being in jail

The blizzard of 2016, had a name and its name was called "Jonas"
But we are still here and in time, each of us will triumph over this.

Praying that in this sea-son, we not forget or ignore, but see, the Son
In His seasonal unrest he was not comforted but tasted death for everyone.

And He endured the blizzard of the cross so that we could taste the sunshine of Spring
And eventually this will all come to an End as Jesus reigns as Lord and REIGNS as King

Even so, come Lord Jesus Come, amen.

AND AMEN! COME LORD JESUS!

(NEWSER) – The mosquito-borne Zika virus, believed to be causing a dangerous neurological condition in babies born to mothers who were infected with the virus while pregnant, will likely spread to almost every country in the Americas, WHO warns in a new statement. "Aedes mosquitoes—the main vector for Zika transmission—are present in all the region's countries except Canada and continental Chile," the statement reads. It goes on to explain that many people in South, Central, and North America haven't been exposed to the virus before and thus don't have immunity, so the virus is spreading quickly, CNN reports.

Since Brazil reported its first local cases in May, 21 countries and territories in the Americas have seen cases of Zika, and the CDC is recommending that pregnant women avoid traveling to Bolivia, Brazil, Cape Verde, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Martinique, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Saint Martin, Suriname, Samoa, Venezuela, and Puerto Rico. Three British travelers to Colombia, Suriname, and Guyana have recently been infected with the virus, and a baby born in Hawaii has brain damage related to the virus.

Stronger downside risks, including China’s change of growth model, lower commodity prices, and “asynchronous” monetary policy around the world prompted the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to lower its global growth outlook, IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde told Yahoo Finance editor-in-chief Andy Serwer at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

The IMF pared its global growth forecast to 3.4% in 2016, a decline of 0.2% from the agency’s prior estimate in October. Lagarde warned of consequences as the world faces weaker growth.

“There will be fewer jobs created around the world, and there will be countries that will struggle, particularly those suffering from the double downside risks, which is the trade relationship with China slowing down a bit and lower commodity prices,” said Lagarde. “This will affect some of the emerging market economies and low income countries that are vastly commodity export dependent.”

A collapse of the world economy wouldn't signal the end of the world. It would just mean that there would be a new world economy. What this new world economy would consist of, is the question...

Investors face a “cataclysmic year” where stock markets could fall by up to 20% and oil could slump to $16 a barrel, economists at the Royal Bank of Scotland have warned.

In a note to its clients the bank said: “Sell everything except high quality bonds. This is about return of capital, not return on capital. In a crowded hall, exit doors are small.” It said the current situation was reminiscent of 2008, when the collapse of the Lehman Brothers investment bank led to the global financial crisis. This time China could be the crisis point.

Oil prices have also fallen sharply on fears of lower demand and a supply glut, especially with Iran due to start exporting once more when sanctions are lifted. Tensions between Iran and Saudia Arabia make it less likely that Opec can agree to cut production to halt the slide in prices. Brent crude is down another 1% at $31.18, its lowest level since April 2004.

CLEARLY....THERE IS AN OIL/ENERGY CRISIS WORLDWIDE.

What event....

...or combination of events, will propel BO to a third term or new world order presidency?

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...

Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, cut diplomatic ties with Iran on Sunday in response to the storming of its embassy in Tehran. The protest followed Saudi Arabia's execution of a prominent Shiite cleric.

Will 2016 be the year when the world economy crashes? The markets won't tell the whole story....but this is not a good start.

Current Events-BO

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2015/12/28/obama-donald-trump-gallup-poll-most-admired-man/77967868/

Once again, President Obama tops the annual Gallup Poll for most admired man, although this year an intriguing pair is tied for second.

Donald Trump and Pope Francis both finished with 5% of respondents who named them their most admired man, well behind Obama's 17%.

LOL....BO? The most admired man? 2016 is gonna be an interesting year...to say the least. Will something extraordinary take place that would give him a third term?

Current Events-National Debt

http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/markets/2015/12/28/debt-distress-level-recession/77882786/

The Federal Reserve this month took interest rates up for the first time in nearly a decade - ending the days of free money. It might take a few years for higher rates to hit companies - as they look to refinance debt. But the troubling part is many companies aren't in great shape to eat the higher costs.

Many are actually putting a date on the beginning of the end for the Dollar...

Current Events-China beef

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2015/12/19/china-us-pentagon-b-52-flights/77623774/

China called on the United States to end "provocative" military actions Saturday after two B-52 bombers flew near islands in the South China Sea that Beijing claims it owns.

Just a thought....

So If BO is indeed the Mahdi...would he not bring muslims to where hes at?

A massive asteroid will hurtle by Earth on Oct. 31, at "unusually" high speeds, according to scientists.

Not wormwood...but something like that can always disrupt the powergrid.

God says...

Here. I have an offer.

Worship me.

Then man, takes a lifetime to decipher whether to accept such an Offer.

And some never even ponder the mere "possibility."

Current Events-Israeli violence

Palestinians late Thursday set fire to a religious site in the West Bank revered by some Jews as the tomb of biblical patriarch Joseph.

Stuff is heating up...how soon before it boils over?

Meanwhile, Russia is in Syria.

Current Events-Surrounding Israel

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2015/10/07/us-plane-syria-forced-avoid-russian-aircraft/73545664/

So Russia is now in Syria....and thus closer to Israel. If Russia, which is an Iranian ally, attacks Israel, then what??
