(Siegen, Germany) — For the last several days, I’ve been teaching at a pastors and ministry leaders conference in Germany, with each message translated into German. We’ve been focusing on the future of Europe, Israel and the Jews, looking at a number of key Bible prophecies, including the remarkable prophecies found in Ezekiel 36, 37, [...]
Greece is on the verge of economic collapse and civil war, according to top leaders inside Greece and the European Union. Decisions made by Greek leaders and the Greek public in the coming days and weeks could lead to catastrophic results. What’s more, experts are worried the economic and social contagion unleashed by a Greek implosion, should [...]
Please pray for the believers in Iran as persecution intensifies there. “Iran’s ayatollahs are showing frustration with Iranians leaving Islam for Christianity in large numbers despite the threat of execution for apostasy,” reports Reza Khalili on The Daily Caller website. “A former intelligence officer in the Guards, who has now defected to Europe, told The [...]
This is a note I read during the sermon last week. I want to share it to you. Please feel free to share it to whoever you would like. It is not about me, but God's Word. Share to as many as possible. Copy, paste, send links, whatever is on your heart. Bro. Brian
I know God has not changed.He promised me that He will never change, and His laws are forever etched in stone.He told me Adam and Eve were created so that we may know more about Him.Man would die for his wife as Christ died for us.A woman would serve her man as we serve Christ.Marriage, which is holy before God, is the foundation of our faith in Him.He also told me He loved me so much Jesus came down in a family of Joseph and Mary to live in perfectness, and He died so that I may live.Live in holiness and spreading that holiness to others is God's command to me.He told me He is love, and love I must be. Live as Jesus lives in my heart today.
However, my President has told me God does change, and His laws are not etched in stone.That makes my God a liar, so according to my President, God is not to be trusted.I do not follow my President's declaration that God has changed the institution of marriage, because my God's law never changes.My God is true, and His laws have always been true.My faith rests on an unchanging faith, even when all those around me tell me that I should change.
My politicians and my country tell me life is not important, marriage is not from God, and freedoms are not from a Creator but from government.My leaders may tell me how narrow minded I am, or how out of touch I am, and in a sense they are true.I want to shut myself off to sin, and I want to be out of touch in this world. I am in touch with God, and open to His Will.I know the world I live in is like the days of Noah, and I know that my life must not reflect the world around me, but the world I am living for, the eternal world.
I love you God, and I am so sorry that we in America have fallen so far.Help make me a parent who realizes that my children are not in the same country I grew up in, but in aworse place.America is a place that has lost hope because we no longer live for the Blessed Hope.I pray my children will always love you, and be the Light on a Hill.I pray my children will be more of a soldier in your army than I ever was.Their world will accept immorality, sin, and slavery, but I hope they will always accept morality, holiness, and freedom which is from You.
Yes, Mr. President and all the leaders in this world who are promoting a life without God, I do not follow you, sirs.I follow One who has promised me an everlasting life full of the Almighty's Glory.I honor you O Lord in what I do, and as a parent, I honor my awesome responsibility to raise my children not in the shadows of our leaders, but in the shadow of Jesus Christ.
From,
Your Servant Washed in the Blood of the Lamb, and parent of Your children.
The most dreaded fear among world leaders is the bank run.Not only did it happen in Greece, but more importantly there was a bank run on the Spanish bank Bankia, and its stock plunged 20%, which resulted in a halt in trading for the Bankia stock.This may have everything to do with prophecy as the EU Beast continues to die, and it will take a man with extraordinary capabilities to put this back together.However, if my prophetic calculations are correct, then this happens in the midst of the 70th week, and when it does happen we have 3 ½ years left.The wound cannot be healed before then, because the Antichrist is not revealed.Also, I believe a Middle East meltdown of some sort will happen at the same time to bring the Antichrist into Jerusalem.If this is the time for the wound to be healed, then maybe the European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) is more than meets the eye.Time will tell.
The last couple of weeks have been a roller coaster ride if you follow the events in the world.Most people just stick to their daily routines, and they will be shocked to see the world fall apart, but we, watchers, know it is coming so our ministry to comfort and direct those who need answers must be prepared in love.I still look for great volatility, but we may not have many answers until after May 18th-19th when the G8 world leaders convene.I suspect they will talk up the economy, promise liquidity, or money printing, and the stock market will go up, but who really knows at this point. The scary thing for world leaders is the bank run, and it is beginning.
We will follow events of the G8 summit through twitter and the website, and one leader missing is President Putin of Russia.There are rumors the West and Putin are at great odds over a number of things, so Putin is sending his surrogate Medvedev.The alliance between Iran, Russia, and Turkey is getting stronger from all accounts, and it will be interesting how the G8 summit plays out with the May 23rd Iranian nuclear meeting in Baghdad, which ironically is where the four angels are chained in Revelation even though their moment in prophecy is not here yet.Also, the Greek elections on June 17th may be a very important date to watch as the EU leaders nervously watch the results to see if the anti-EU bailout coalition is formed.At the end of June the EU will have their always important meeting on issues, and you have to wonder what meeting will spur the Antichrist in the days we live.

SCRIPTURE
Revelation 13: 3-6
"I saw one of his heads as if it had been [b]slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast;4 they worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, " Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?"5 There was given to him a mouth speaking [c]arrogant words and blasphemies, and authority to act for forty-two months was given to him.6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, those who [d]dwell in heaven."
NOTE:The Beast has seven heads, which are, in my opinion, Babylon, Assyria, Neo-Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Rome, and Revised Rome.My mind is not one hundred percent certain, but these empires have ruled over the earth as Israel was a nation.The British Empire, Ottoman Turks, Byzantines, and so forth cannot be counted because they did not rule over Israel while Israel was in their land.If one of the heads is slain, can that be the EU, Revised Roman Empire, collapsing?Also, the fatal wound the same as the head being slain.Put your thoughts below in the comment section.Bro.

Shares in Bankia, the recently nationalized Spanish bank, are plunging by more than 20 percent on a local report that customers have withdrawn more than (EURO)1 billion ($1.27 billion) since the state took it over last week.
The shares were off 16 percent Thursday at (EURO)1.39 after falling as much as 27 per cent during the morning.
Putin told Obama in a telephone call he "unfortunately cannot take part in the May 18-19 G8 summit as on those days the formation of the Russian government will -- evidently -- still not be completed," the Kremlin said.
"The American side received this information with understanding," it added.
It also confirmed that Putin would be represented by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, who until Monday served as president for the last four years and unlike Putin has a strong rapport with Obama after meeting him several times.
Putin's visit to the United States was to come at a prickly time in ties with Washington, which is pressing ahead with a European missile shield despite Russian complaints and has also slammed Russia's treatment of protesters.
The Kremlin said that the two presidents agreed to hold a bilateral meeting at the G20 summit in mid-June that is to be hosted by Mexico in the resort of Los Cabos.
Two important events that may shape the eternal lives of billions of people are coming up.First, let's tackle May 23rd where the world powers will decide to give Iran the nuclear capability to make a bomb, which Israel will then prepare for the eventuality of war.If, as I suspect, Iran gets a free pass, then the world will officially in public be against Israel.At that point we need to see the reaction of Netanyahu and the Israeli military.Israel does not want all out war, no one really wins in an ugly war, but the military may take measures to prepare for a possible Iranian attack or Israeli response. In either case, after May 23rd events may be put forward for a Middle East war very soon.
The second date is the G8 Summit in Maryland on May 18-19th.It will be not just a euro crisis meeting, but a currency crisis meeting.God shared in Revelation the mark of the beast is an end of the world currency.When all currencies fail, then the mark of the beast system will be instituted.A currency has to have a commodity to attach itself to, whether it is gold, or oil, or as it will be in the end of days, our very souls.The only commodity that can be stable in the end of days is our bodies.We have to watch to see how the financial markets, gold, and the currencies react after the G8 Summit.As volatile the markets and currencies are now, I don't think any systemic collapse will happen until after the G8 summit, if then.I believe the world will print more money, and then the system will survive for a short time until hyperinflation takes hold.Hyperinflation can take hold overnight.Time will tell.
There is a lot of fear in the world, but take heart, Jesus has conquered all fears.In the world there is no hope, but despair, but in Jesus Christ there is hope, love, and faith in One who created us for His pleasure.Don't ever forget Jesus knows what you are feeling at this very moment, and He is ready to help you.

Dashed hopes that Europe may be escaping its debt crisis will darken the mood Friday as President Barack Obama welcomes leaders of the G8 rich nations club to a summit at his Camp David retreat, reports AFP.
Greece and Spain are again stoking speculation that financial woes in Europe could leap across the Atlantic and slow the already stuttering US economy and directly impact Obama's chances of winning reelection in November.
As he welcomes his guests to the secluded collection of cabins in the Catoctin Mountains in Maryland, Obama will get a first-hand look at the consequences facing politicians who get blamed for economic woes.
Since the last G8 summit a year ago in Deauville, France's Nicolas Sarkozy and Italy's Silvio Berlusconi have both paid for the economic woes gripping their nations with their jobs.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel meanwhile just suffered what she admitted was a "bitter, painful" defeat in regional elections attributed partly to her insistence that austerity policies remain the best route out of crisis.
The summit will be the first major international gathering attended by France's new president Francois Hollande and will mark the G8 debut of Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti and Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda.
But one eagerly awaited "new" face will not be coming. Russia's once and current President Vladimir Putin decided to stay at home to pilot his new cabinet through the fast shifting sands of Russian politics.
It basically goes like this: Greece leaves the euro "very possibly next month." That would lead to a massive run on Italian and Spanish banks. There would be massive borrowing from the ECB to prevent a banking collapse. At which point Germany has to decide: Shoulder a major burden for the debts of Spain/Italy, etc., or let it all go.
He concludes: "And we're talking about months, not years, for this to play out."
The United States FAA Department, upon order of the government, is sending drones throughout the country.The purpose is to stop illegal activity.Drones are unmanned aircraft which specialize in collecting data, and also can be used to carry missiles.Even though the drones will be unarmed, the idea is alarming.In the end of days the Antichrist will search out those who go against the Beast system.I believe drones will be used to search out those who do not believe in the world's system.One more step in the direction of Antichrist.
Europe is still collapsing, and will continue to lose money as capital flow exits Europe.The EU will continue to disintegrate, and when it does, the Antichrist will come in and put it back together subduing three.Interestingly, as the new French President was meeting German Chancellor Merkel, his plane was struck by lightning and had to turn back.Maybe God is trying to say something, or push back the Beast's outreach.I believe the satanic system before us is going to get much more evil very quickly.
Spanish ten year bond yields continue to climb, and stock equities are losing their worth.As this accelerates look for money printing to be put into hyper drive.As the money printing continues, inflation will turn into hyperinflation.Deflation will not destroy the world's economies, but hyperinflation.It is time for all of us to study the Word, keep ourselves true to His teachings, and always remember God is in control amidst the chaos we see.

Unmanned drones could soon be buzzing in the skies above many U.S. cities, as the federal government green-lights the technology for local law enforcement amid widespread privacy concerns.
The Federal Aviation Administration on Monday began to explain the rules of the sky for these newly licensed drones at potentially dozens of sites across the country. The agency, on its website, said that government "entities" will have to obtain a special certificate in order to fly the aircraft, adding that the FAA is "streamlining the process for public agencies to safely fly (drones) in the nation's airspace."
In doing so, the government is taking a tool that has become synonymous with U.S. counterterror warfare in countries like Pakistan and Yemen -- and putting it in the hands of U.S. law enforcement.
Unlike some of the drones used overseas, these will not be equipped with missiles. They are to be used purely for surveillance. But that alone has raised serious privacy concerns on Capitol Hill and beyond.
