According to the United Nations Refugee Agency, more than 200,000 people have fled Syria due to ongoing civil war. At least 70 people were killed, 21 on Friday, as Assad's troops bombarded Daraya with artillery, tanks, mortars, rockets and helicopter gunships, pushing back the opposition.
The fear now is that Assad's forces will round up young men and begin more executions, as they search for rebels among the population. The Syrian army has killed 40 such young men in the last week due to uprisings. An activist in Daraya told Reuters that a lot of people are trapped in the rubble of destroyed buildings.
UPDATE (1 day ago): Syrian forces have killed 320 in Daraya; Daraya is in ruins. Rebels posted videos of mass burials after the weekend slaughter. In one of the videos a woman was heard yelling, "God is greater," as soldiers raided her home. A member of the opposition reported that, "Soldiers arrested the woman and five men in her family and executed them."
The world is outraged, with exception to all of those nations who draw innocent blood themselves, Russia, China and the surrounding Muslim nations. The UN issued a statement from the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon, "Whoever is responsible, needs to be accountable." Oh, how very nice of him to say so!
While Assad's regime is basically slaughtering the nation around them, the UN is "helpless" to do anything at all, because of the weighty votes against intervention by Russia and China - major slaughterhouses themselves! Amidst the mayhem committed by Assad, Obama and Britain have basically said they won't lift a finger to stop the slaughter, unless Assad uses chemical weapons. In essence the message from Obama and Britain is, "Kill them anyway you can with fire, knifes, bullets, torture, just don't use any chemicals. I have one thing to say to Obama and Britain - COWARDS!
The Bible tells us that Damascus, one of the oldest cities in the world, will be a ruinous heap in the last days. "The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city and it shall be a ruinous heap" Isaiah 17:1. Well, here it is folks, prophecy being fulfilled right before our eyes.
The Lord's return is imminent, at the door. Are you ready to stand before Him and give an account of the life you have lived here on earth? If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you and may you be ready on that day.

President Obama declared a state of emergency in Louisiana yesterday, after Louisiana's Governor Bobby Jindal requested the declaration and financial assistance to Louisiana in the wake of hurricane Isaac. The White House informed Jindal of the decision by phone. The state of emergency makes federal help available to save lives, and protect the health, safety and property of citizens. This is something FEMA is supposed to do in such an emergency anyway.
After the phone call, Jindal sent a letter to Obama late Monday to thank him for his declaration, "however, the state's original request for federal assistance...included a request for reimbursement for all emergency protective measures. The federal declaration of emergency only provides for direct federal assistance," reported Fox News.
This afternoon, Obama made a public speech to residents of Louisiana to heed warnings issued by government officials, to evacuate and take all precaution; "this is not a time to tempt fate." It sounded like a "damage control" statement to me.
If Jindal wants the federal help the state of Louisiana really needs, he should get a few Muslims in the neighborhood to make public pleas to Obama, or possibly tell Obama that several mosques and Muslim families are in the path of hurricane Isaac. Those announcements are sure to get Obama's attention, but I'm afraid nothing else will, unless he relents because of the upcoming elections.
In the event you aren't aware of it, hurricane Isaac is slated to hit the Louisiana coast on exactly the seven-year anniversary of hurricane Katrina, which hit the Louisiana coast on August 28, 2005, exactly seven years ago to the day. From a prophetic standpoint, that doesn't sound good at all, for such a storm that is. For Christians, it is a great number. It is important to be on the right side, God's side, of that number 7!
The prophets wrote thousands of years ago about destructive storms hitting the earth in the last days. Isaiah wrote, "Behold, the Lord has a mighty strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand" Isaiah 28:2
The Word of God tells us that, "The thing that has been is that which shall be, and that which is done is that which shall be done, and there is no new thing under the sun" Ecclesiastes 1:9. History tends to repeat itself, at least until the Lord returns. On top of that, seven is the perfect number of completion. Isaac is a massive hurricane.
Louisiana has spent $8 million on some protective measures, but the critical factor is, have they prayed? Certainly it isn't going to be how much money they have spent on security alone, which is good, but not "all inclusive." Isaac should be hitting Louisiana about now and I hope they are praying. They need our prayers too for the safety of God's people there, and for the salvation and safety of those who don't know the Lord, the base source of our help in the time of need.

A
major 7.4 earthquake hit just off shore of El Salvador on Monday, August 27, 2012,
at 04:37:20 UTC, at a depth of 20.3 km (12.6 mi). A tsunami warning was issued at approximately 04:45 UTC. Two major (>6.5)
earthquakes have hit in less than 24 hours and the frequency of major
quakes continues to climb exponentially throughout the world.
Jesus said these
signs would appear before He returns, "Nation
will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be
famines, pestilences and earthquakes in various places" Matthew 24:7. "There will be great earthquakes in various places, famines and pestilences and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven" Luke21:11.
Jesus also said, "When you see these things, know that it is near (His return), even at the doors" Matthew 24:33.
The graph below shows the drastic
increase in earthquake activity
between 2010 and 2011 (look closely at the 2011 increase on the graph
near the border). Since 2011, the stats continue to soar, especially for "great" earthquakes.

I live with it continuously, the "get me out of here" looks, the "let's change the subject" friends, the "how dare you say that" acquaintances; people call the truth "fearmongering." How about this for fearmongering:
"When he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said to them, 'O generation of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth fruit of repentance" Matthew 3:7-8. John the Baptist was speaking here to the religious leaders of his day, who came to his baptism. All of Jerusalem, Judea and Jordan came to him to be baptized, confessing their sins (verse 6); so here came the religious leaders, who were "haughty, pious, self righteous, hypocrites," but John called them snakes and asked them who warned them of the wrath to come. He basically told them to repent and live a life demonstrative of repentance. You won't hear that message from the likes of Joel Osteen today, with his membership of about 40K. If he did preach the truth, his 40,000 congregation would dwindle to possibly about 40!
"If your hand offends you (causes you to sin), cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life (eternal life) maimed, than having two hands and go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched, where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched" Mark 9:43-44. Jesus taught this fact about resisting sin and the penalty of eternal hell fire to his disciples, yet you will probably never hear a sermon preached like this one from Rick Warren, with approximately 20K attending his church. I imagine if he preached sermons after the manner of Christ, he might end up with a membership of 20! Jesus only had a membership of 12, but of course, he wasn't preaching for money or gain; He was delivering the message of truth. He said, "Foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of man has nowhere to lay His head" Matthew 8:20. After Jesus was crucified, He was buried in a borrowed tomb (Matthew 27:58-60). No, not every preacher who preaches the truth is poor, but in those few cases, God gives the increase, it isn't because they compromise the truth for gain.
Jesus told His disciples, "You will be hated of all men for My name's sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved" Matthew 10:22. Now why do you suppose Jesus said "You will be hated of all men for my name's sake," when, in fact, people just flock to the popular preachers today? I'll give you a little hint. They don't preach the same sermons Jesus preached! He also said, "Fear not them who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul, but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" Matthew 10:28. Is this fearmongering?
Is there anyone out there who is inclined to call Jesus, the Son of the living God, our Lord and Savior, a fearmonger? No? I suppose some think they will simply get away with accusing those of us who speak the truth, as Jesus's disciples. That won't happen, for Jesus also said, "I say unto you that every idle word that men speak, they will give an account of it on the day of judgment" Matthew 12:36.
If you are one of those who hate to hear the Word of God which condemns sin, possibly you should consider why you hate it so much. The truth is the truth. Jesus also said, "You will know the truth and the truth will make you free" John 8:32. Hearing the truth should shed light into our hearts about where we stand with God and if "sin lies at the door," it will either bring us to our knees in repentance, or cause resentment and bitterness against the living Word of God - not the messenger. Some people think they resent the messengers for speaking or writing truth, for relaying the Word of God as Jesus spoke it; but truly, if you are in that frame of mind, you don't resent the messengers, you resent GOD Himself! The Bible says, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; but fools despise wisdom and instruction" Proverbs 1:7.
If you find yourself in that condition, it is amazing how the peace of God will overwhelm you if you will only surrender to His truth and repent of hateful thoughts against it. Indeed, the truth sets souls free. God bless you.

Jesus said, "As the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be; for as in the days that were before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came and took them all away, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be" Matthew 24:37-39. Throughout Matthew chapter 24, Jesus described to His disciples the signs that would prevail in the last days and signal His return.
Many of the same signs detailed in Matthew 24, were also described by Luke. In Luke's account, he quoted Jesus as saying, "When these things begin to come to pass, then look up and lift up your heads, for your redemption draws near" Luke 21:28.
Both Apostles described perils in the last days, such as earthquakes, famines, pestilences, signs in heaven and on the earth. It is very noteworthy that Jesus said, "...they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark..." Matthew 38. By looking at these chapters, Matthew 24 and Luke 21, it appears that the world is in great distress and perplexity before the Lord's return, and in fact, it is in such a state when the Lord returns with His saints.
Jesus said, "When these things BEGIN to come to pass, look up...your redemption draws near" Luke 21:28. This is indicative of the fact that we, the saints of God, will be redeemed when the signs of the tribulation begin. People will be eating, drinking and marrying, because the full scale of the great tribulation and wrath of God has not yet fallen upon the earth when we, God's children, are raptured, or "caught up" (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18). When we see the perils begin to come upon the earth, as we do right now, with record-breaking earthquakes, record-breaking storms, famines throughout Asia, Africa and other parts of the world, we are to look up, because our redemption is near - His return for the saints is imminent, not His return to the earth with the saints after the seven-year tribulation period.
It will only be the wicked who are left here to endure the wrath of God and the great tribulation period, not the saints of God. We will return with Christ at the end of the seven years of great tribulation (Revelation 19:11-14) - Amen! Are you prepared to escape what is coming, or will you be left behind?

Tungurahua Volcano
Ecuador's Tungurahua volcano erupted, forcing evacuations as ash falls.
The volcano first erupted over the weekend and vapor and ash ascended
2.5 miles high, which grades a moderate to strong eruption, according to
Ecuador's Geophysics Institute. The ash damaged miles of vegetation, which has affected about 2,000 families in the area.
Mount Tongariro Volcano
New Zealand's Mount Tongariro erupted two weeks ago and is still active. The last time the volcano erupted was 115 years ago. Streets were closed and flights have been disrupted. Gas measurements show there is magma underneath and the alert level is 1 at this time. Experts said they were caught by surprise and didn't know Tongariro was going to erupt.
The Word of God tells us that the world is going to languish during the last days and that there will be signs in the earth and in heaven which signal the Lord's return. Jesus said, "There will be great earthquakes in various places, famines, pestilences, and fearful sights and there will be great signs from heaven" Luke 21:11. "I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath, blood, fire and vapor of smoke" Acts 2:9.
Signs are appearing throughout the earth, with record-breaking great earthquakes, volcano eruptions, record breaking storms and floods, and mass bird, fish and animal deaths. It is all happening before our eyes and the Lord is no slack concerning His promise to return (2 Peter 3:9). Are you ready to stand before Him and give an account of the life you have lived here on earth? If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you.

The Word of God says, "There is a way which seems right unto a man, but the end of it is the way of death" Proverbs 14:12
Many Christians have become so liberal that they have come to imagine that because Jesus died for our sins, we have a free ticket to sin and a "get out of jail free" card from God.
It behooves us to remember that, "If God did not spare the natural branches (Jews under the old covenant), take heed that He may also not spare you" Romans 11:21. "Be not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. He who sows to the flesh, will because of his flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap life everlasting" Galatians 6:7,8.
These are both New Testament scriptures, written after the death of Christ on the cross; they are not Old Testament, under the law, teachings, and there are plenty more where that came from, which teach God's people to live a holy life. Please don't deceive yourself into thinking you can live like the devil and act like the devil, but enter heaven because you said a "sinners prayer" one day - ain't gonna happen, folks.
Jesus said, "Truly, truly I say to you, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" John 3:3. Born again = new life, not the old one we were saved out of. "Therefore, if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature, old things have passed away, behold, all things are new" 2 Corinthians 5:17.
What Christ's death on the cross meant was that He successfully lived a holy life in this world, having arrived in the flesh and having been tempted the same as we are, but He overcame. He came and suffered in the flesh, not only to pay the price for every man's sins, but also to give us the power to overcome. This is what it's all about - not free tickets to get out of jail. If you have that mentality, you are trampling the blood of Jesus and you will not be excused; "How much sorer punishment, do you suppose, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, whereby he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done despite to the Spirit of grace?" Hebrews 10:29. You may be asking, "Sorer punishment than who?"
The answer to that is, the Jews, God's chosen people, those referred to above as the natural branches. What Hebrews 10:29 is saying is that if God sorely punished the Jews for their disobedience and idolatry under the Old Covenant, how much sorer punishment will we receive, if once we have been washed by the blood of the Holy Son of God, we deliberately return to sinful lifestyles and tread under foot the blood of the Son of God? Of course, we are capable of sin and error after we get saved, of course we are not perfect all the time. ** It is one thing to sin on occasion and repent, but it is another thing entirely to allow sin to rule and reign in our bodies after we have been delivered and cleansed by the blood of Christ. ** The Word says, "Let not sin, therefore, reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in lust" Romans 6:12.
If you have a liberal viewpoint on Christianity, please read the book of Romans prayerfully and you will have to either deny the Word of Truth, or come to the conclusion that God not only saved us through the sacrificial blood of His Son, but He also called us out of sin to live sanctified, holy lives in His presence.
Through Christ, God has empowered us to live holy, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" Philippians 4:13. "Therefore, come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you" 2 Corinthians 6:17. This is New Testament, friends. Let's consecrate ourselves to God and be the royal priesthood, which God has called us to be, "You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, that you should show forth the praises of Him, who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light" 1 Peter 2:9. Again, New Testament - God bless you.

Donald Trump interviewed with Fox News journalist Greta Van Susteren recently. He said our nation is "teetering on financial ruin." Trump said our national debt is now $16 trillion dollars and our country is no longer a rich nation and went on to say, "The way Obama is running the country is stupid."
The Word of God says, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools" Romans 1:22.
Ballooning debt and a credit downgrade aren't Trump's only worries for this country. He says that the official unemployment rate of 8.2 percent "isn't a real number" and that the real figure is closer to 15 to 16 percent. He mentioned that some believe the unemployment rate is as high as 21 percent, reported MoneyNews.com.
Trump's concerns and statements are niceties compared to what Robert Wiedemer has to say about the impending US economic collapse. He accurately predicated the housing market collapse in 2008 and he has written an "eye-opening" book Aftershock. Wiedemer predicts that starting this year and into next year, unemployment rate will begin to soar to 50 percent. The US dollar has already lost 16 percent of its value since the book was written.
Robert Wiedemer also predicts that the worst of the financial catastrophe is still ahead and we are "past the point of no return." We are headed for a second Great Depression, according to Wiedemer. He said the data is clear, 50 percent unemployment, a 90 percent stock market drop and 100 percent annual inflation starting in 2012!
This will all lead to one planned event, a New World Order. Obama knows about it and this is why he is deliberately imploding the economy. The Bilderbergs know about it and that's why they made sure "Obama nobody" suddenly became "Obama somebody" and made the presidency. The UUN, who I can't help but refer to as the Useless United Nations, knew about it and their plans are coming to fruition. The elitists can't get American citizens to give up their sovereignty and buckle under the control of the UUN, unless we are financially destitute a---------nd that's where Obama comes in. He is decisively and deliberately leading America down the path to economic destruction.
In order to make certain people can't make too much of a fuss during the US subjugation, he has already given himself dictatorial power, by way of the National Defense Authorization Act he signed on New Year's Eve. This gives him, only the president, the dictatorial power to arrest and detain US citizens indefinitely and without a trial!
We have always heard of such dictators in China, Russia, North Korea and the like, but guess what America? It's here! If you knew about all of the plans they have for America, you would want to pack up your bags and exit out of here to a "safe haven" somewhere, which is what many of the wealthy are doing right now. There really isn't a safe haven anywhere, outside of God's divine protection over His people. This "end game" plan is going to come crashing down over the entire world, and this is exactly why you see England, Greece, Spain, Italy and other nations suffering financial collapse.
A New World Order under a one world dictator, is prophesied in the Bible and this dictator is referred to as the Antichrist. He will take control and regulate everything, even your ability to buy and sell, according to Revelation 13:16-18, "He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, bond and free to receive a mark in their right hand or in their foreheads, that no man might buy or sell, except he who has the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. and his number is six hundred, sixty-six."
The rapture of the saints and the great tribulation is just ahead of us, folks. If you haven't received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page, before it's too late. "Today is the day of salvation" 2 Corinthians 6:2. God bless you.
