The New Money

Show me the new money



Though few people--including many professing Christians--take the Bible literally these days, there are those who do and they realize that we're living in the period of time that the Bible describes as the last days.

In what way? In the way of money that biblical prophecy clearly reveals will become quite different in the days preceding the return of Jesus Christ. How will it be different? It will be fully electronic, meaning that cash, coins, checks, debit and credit cards will go the way of the dinosaur.

Nearly 1,900 years ago, the apostle John, who was an elderly man confined by Rome to the desolate island of Patmos for refusing to renounce Christ, received an incredible vision from God concerning the end times. That vision included a one-world government and its wicked leader who will institute a global cashless monetary system.

Though that sounds beneficial, the vision revealed that the ultimate motive for this new, global monetary system will be surveillance and control. Here's what John recorded: "He (Antichrist) also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name." (Revelation 13:16-17)

John's vision didn't make much sense in 90 A.D when he received it. It didn't make much sense for several centuries, prompting some biblical scholars to question whether the Revelation was a myth that should've been stricken from the Bible. Certainly, some ancient kingdoms instituted marking systems to identify their subjects. But on a global scale?

That was practically impossible to comprehend until the advent of the 20th century that saw an explosion of technology with inventions such as the automobile, airplanes, computers, television, satellites and smart-phones. Many folks forget that a lot of the things they depend on these days didn't exist 100 years ago. That's how quickly technology has advanced the world since the dawn of the previous century.

And the technology now exists to implement a cashless monetary system. Those who are promoting this system claim that it will do away with violent drug cartels and street gangs that accumulate most of their income from narcotics. They also claim that it will eliminate robberies and reduce financial scams that target the elderly.

Though smart-phones now transact a lot of the financial business that used to be transacted by paper money and credit cards, they can be lost, stolen or hacked by cyber-thieves. The ultimate system will feature an embedded computer chip or skin-patch containing a barcode that will be synced with a person's DNA to prevent the device from being used by someone else if it's stolen or removed from its host. Does the technology exist to implement such a system? Not yet, but it's not far away.

In the meantime, the world is preparing for this new economic system by making plans to discard the old system. And the first nation that could become fully cashless is Sweden. From cbsnews.com: Sweden was the first European country to introduce bank notes in 1661. Now it's come farther than most on the path toward getting rid of them. "I can't see why we should be printing bank notes at all anymore," says Bjoern Ulvaeus, former member of 1970's pop group ABBA, and a vocal proponent for a world without cash. The contours of such a society are starting to take shape in this high-tech nation, frustrating those who prefer coins and bills over digital money.  
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/sweden-moving-towards-cashless-economy

Since cash has become increasingly scarce in Sweden, crime has dropped. According to the AP: The number of bank robberies in Sweden plunged from 110 in 2008 to 16 in 2011 — the lowest level since it started keeping records 30 years ago. It says robberies of security transports are also down. "Less cash in circulation makes things safer, both for the staff that handle cash, but also of course for the public," says Par Karlsson, a security expert at the organization."

Indeed, that sounds like great news. But as they say: The road to hell is paved with good intentions. And the good intentions of a global cashless monetary system will ultimately become the yellow brick road that leads to the gates of hell.

Truth or Consequences

Dr. Ben Carson

Dr. Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon who possesses more intelligence in his ring finger than Barack Obama possesses in his entire cranium, has learned what he'll be up against if he decides to run for president.

Carson believes that homosexuality is a lifestyle of choice rather than genetic determination. During a recent interview with CNN, Carson stated that "a lot of people who go into prison, go into prison straight, and when they come out they're gay, so did something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question." www.msn.com

Carson speaks from experience. He's familiar with a lot of men who were introduced to the homosexual lifestyle while incarcerated, and then chose to remain in that lifestyle once they got out of prison. Though he made an observation that's been known for decades, Carson was excoriated by the leftist media for daring to suggest that homosexuality is a lifestyle of choice.

Typical of the reaction to Carson's comments was an MSN article that insinuated Carson was an ignorant man because science has long since "proven" that homosexuality is predetermined genetically. 

Here's what the article said: "Most scientists would disagree (with Carson). Years of research suggest that people can't change their sexual orientation because they want to, and that trying can cause mental anguish. What's more, some studies suggest that being gay may have a genetic or biological basis."

Now, consider that. The article claims that "most scientists" believe that homosexuality is biologically determined. Who are some of these scientists? We aren't given any names. Secondly, the article states that "years of research suggest that people can't change their sexual orientation." What body of research says that? Who conducted the studies? When were they done? How long did they last? How many people were involved in this research? Again, the article makes several claims without citing any evidence or documentation to back up those claims.

Homosexuality is a third-rail topic that most political candidates--especially those on the right--must tread carefully around lest they say something that could either destroy their political careers or ruin their ambitions as in the case of Carson.

You can tell that Carson isn't a politician because he gives straight answers to difficult questions. And that could damage his chances to be taken seriously as a presidential candidate, even by his own party.

I hope Carson doesn't run for president because I believe that he could do far greater good for the culture wars by staying out of politics. He's a smart man who'd find out quickly that many politicians--especially those at the national and international levels--are puppets who've been bought by powerful globalists and financial oligarchs that are seeking a one-world government.

Indeed, as Carson believes, homosexuality is a lifestyle of choice. Because if it's biologically determined as gay activists claim, then what about pedophilia, adultery and bestiality? Why can't the folks who practice those forms of sexuality claim that they were born that way?

Once you open the door for a group of people who practice an aberrant lifestyle, then you have to let everyone else in. You can't pick and choose whose lifestyle is acceptable and whose isn't. Because if you do, then everyone else will eventually force their way in. Without clear biblical parameters concerning sexuality, anarchy will prevail and the civilization will implode.

Certainly, the Bible condemns the homosexual lifestyle. But it doesn't condemn those who practice it. Rather, it encourages those in that lifestyle and in other aberrant lifestyles to repent and get out of them.

Here's what the apostle Paul wrote to the early church in Corinth that was plagued by sexual sin: "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-11)

If Ben Carson decides to run for president, he'll be allowed to criticize many things and even many folks. But if he criticizes the gay lifestyle, he'll be toast. And he knows it. The Big Gay Enforcers will shut him down and the leftist media will paint him as an Uncle Tom who wandered off the Liberal Plantation to do the bidding of angry, bigoted rednecks.

Ben Carson certainly isn't a sellout. He's his own man and he's very intelligent. Unlike Obama who's a complete phony with a mythical resume, Carson's a genuine success story who beat the odds to become a successful doctor. He's a true role model for African-Americans because he succeeded in life without the aid of the federal government.

And I'd hate to see him tarnished by the sewer of American politics. He can do the nation much better by staying out of politics. Because if he decides to run for the presidency, he'll find out who the real racists and bigots are. Because they'll be coming for him.

Israel, the Jews and the World: Pt. III

The Bible and the Qu'ran

Why does the Islamic world despise Israel and the Jews? Because Muslims believe that the Jews perverted the Bible. In what way? By elevating Abraham's son Isaac over his firstborn son Ishmael.

Ishmael was the son born to an Egyptian maidservant named Hagar while Isaac was the son born to Abraham's wife Sarah that God had promised the couple in their advanced age. Through Isaac came the 12 tribes of Israel and the Jewish Messiah Jesus Christ.

Muslims believe that when God promised Abraham that He would provide a special land for Abraham's descendants, (Genesis 12:1-3, Genesis 15:18-21, Genesis 17) He was referring to Ishmael's descendants rather than Isaac's. Therefore, for nearly 1,300 years, the Islamic world has believed that the land known today as Israel was promised to Ishmael's descendants and not to Isaac's.

Thus, according to that reasoning, Israel has no right to exist and the Jews have no right to live in that land or in any land controlled by Muslims. It is that ageless belief--that the Jews perverted the Bible by replacing Ishmael with Isaac--that foments the venomous hatred of the Jews and Israel today.

And so, do Muslims have a legitimate argument? No, they do not. But why not? Because no genealogy exists beyond the Bible's Book of Genesis that can adequately trace Ishmael's descendants. Those who claim to be Ishmael's descendants have no way to prove that. And remember that many modern Muslims are the descendants of ancient tribes that existed during and before the time of Abraham. 

However, Isaac's descendants can be traced all the way to Jesus Christ, and those who find that incredulous are encouraged to read the very first chapter of Matthew's gospel that lists the genealogy from Abraham to Christ.

Remember that the Jews rejected Christ as their Messiah 2,000 years ago, so if they acknowledge the genealogy in order to disprove the Islamic world's claims concerning Ishmael, then they're forced to either acknowledge Christ as the Messiah or they're forced to admit that they rejected Christ because they ignored God's prophets. 

If they refuse to recognize the genealogy because it leads to Christ, then they have no rational argument against Islam's claims. The genealogy recorded in Matthew's gospel settles the argument once and for all and it also proves Islam a false religion because God indeed blessed all the nations of the world through Christ who was descended from Isaac rather than from Ishmael.

Certainly, the Islamic world will claim that the genealogy listed in Matthew's gospel has been fabricated. But why would the Jews fabricate a genealogy that would lead to a messiah that they rejected? That makes no sense. If Christ isn't the Jewish Messiah, then Muslims have a legitimate argument because the world hasn't been blessed through Christ.  

But the world has indeed been blessed through Christ's death on the cross for the sins of mankind and His resurrection from the dead. And whether they admit it or not--and most Jews today still don't--Jesus Christ provides the ultimate proof that the world has been blessed through Isaac's descendants.

Thus, the land of Israel belongs to the Jews and to no one else. Still, the much of the world refuses to accept that. Those who reject the truth are under the power and influence of Satan who seeks to destroy Israel and annihilate the Jews. 

Why? Because without Israel, Jesus Christ cannot return and establish His eternal kingdom on earth. Satan knows that. And he knows that if he can destroy Israel, he can prevent his eternal doom. Satan knows that God's integrity is tied to Israel's existence.

And Satan also knows that God has promised to preserve and protect Israel. To the ancient prophet Amos (2,700 B.C.), God said this: "I will bring back my exiled people Israel; they will rebuild ruined cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit. I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them." (Amos 9:14-15)

The Lord fulfilled his promise in 1948 when Israel became a sovereign nation once again after 1,800 years. But Satan seeks Israel's destruction so he can prove God a liar. 

However, Israel isn't going to be destroyed. Rather, the day is coming when those nations that seek Israel's destruction will be destroyed. (Zechariah 14) And in spectacular fashion.

Israel, the Jews and the World: Pt. II

What the world desires

It was Joseph Goebbels, the minister of propaganda for Adolf Hitler's Nazi Party who said it best: "The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over." goodreads.com

Goebbels understood that a lie will never be embraced unless it's kept simple and repeated often. It's unclear whether Yasser Arafat studied Goebbels. But what is clear is that the master terrorist and founder of the PLO certainly practiced what Goebbels preached. And so effectively that the majority of the world today embraces the lie that Israel unlawfully occupies land that it stole from the Palestinians in 1948.

For the record, Arafat was an Egyptian who was born in the city of Cairo in 1929. He founded the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization) on June 2, 1964 for the specific purpose of destroying Israel and removing all the Jews from their homeland. While he was a gruff and crude man, Arafat knew how to charm those who he sought to deceive. And like Goebbels, he was a master liar who knew how to sell his lies to ignorant people.

Arafat's lie only works because there are too many ignorant people in the world who know nothing about history and possess their own latent anti-Semitism. Thus, when they're told that the evil Jews collaborated with the United Nations in 1948 to seize Palestine and rename it Israel, they willingly embrace that lie. 

But Palestine was created by the ancient Roman Empire in 130 A.D. when Emperor Hadrian renamed the land Syria Palaestina after he crushed the Bar Kochba rebellion that sought to win Israel's independence from Rome. That land continued to be known as Palestine until 1948 when the United Nations voted to declare Israel a sovereign world nation once again.

Prior to 1948, only the Jews were recognized as Palestinians because they and their ancestors had lived in that land for over 3,000 years. In fact, the 1939 Larousse French Dictionary contains an image of the Palestinian flag and it features a yellow--gasp!!--Jewish star over the name Palestine. How quickly the world forgets. http://www.factualisrael.com/1939-palestinian-flag

For Muslims, the mere presence of the Jews and Israel in the midst of the Islamic world represents a supreme insult to Allah. The Qu'ran clearly states that once Muslims acquire land from "infidels," that land belongs to Allah forever and can never be given back. This is what drives the Islamic world to seek Israel's destruction.

Concerning the land of Israel, the Qu'ran says this: "He made you heirs to their [Jewish] land and their dwellings and their property, and (to) a land which you have not yet trodden." (Surah 33:27) While Palestine actually didn't become property of the Islamic world until about 1451 under Ottoman ruler Mehmed the Conqueror, it became the property of Great Britain in about 1922 with the fall of the Ottoman Empire. 

The land of Israel belongs to the Jews and to no one else. It was given to them by God, fulfilling a promise He made to Abraham centuries before the Jews took possession of the land. (Genesis 12:1-3, Genesis 15:16-20, Genesis 17)

Why does Israel even matter to the world? Most people would like to see Israel go away because they believe that if the Jewish nation can be eliminated once and for all, peace will come to the world and terrorism will cease. Thus, those who call themselves Palestinians today have actually become human pawns in a desperate battle that traces to the dawn of history and transcends the physical realm.

The real battle for the land of Israel is about good and evil; heaven and hell. The mere existence of Israel signals the end of the road for a rogue archangel named Lucifer who's more popularly known as Satan. If Israel remains, he's doomed. He knows what his fate is. But he still believes that he can prevent it. And the only way he can do that is to destroy Israel.

In Part III, the ancient roots of the modern battle between good and evil.

Israel, the Jews and the World: Pt. I

The New Anti-Semitism

Nearly 2,500 years ago, the Lord spoke these words to the prophet Zechariah: "I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves." (Zechariah 12:2-3)

While the prophecy describes the future event called Armageddon when the armies of the world will gather together and attempt to annihilate Israel, it also reveals the world's increasing hostility toward the Jewish nation in the last days preceding the return of Jesus Christ.

The world has indeed grown so hostile toward Israel these days that "Never Again", the promise the world made to the Jews at the end of World War II that it would never again remain silent and allow them to be persecuted by evil tyrants such as Adolf Hitler, is indeed happening again.

Why have the Jews been maligned and persecuted throughout the world for centuries? Because they're under a powerful curse that traces back to the time of the prophet Jeremiah who lived during the 6th century B.C.

These are the words the Lord spoke to Jeremiah: "I will make them abhorrent and an offense to all the kingdoms of the earth, a reproach and a byword, a curse and an object of ridicule, wherever I banish them. I will send the sword, famine and plague against them until they are destroyed from the land I gave to them and their ancestors." (Jeremiah 24:9-10)

But why? What did the ancient Jews do that so angered the Lord that He pronounced judgment upon them? They continually broke His laws and violated His covenant He established with them through Moses. And the Lord sent numerous prophets to warn the Jews to repent or face the consequences. Those warnings occurred over a span of several centuries, so it wasn't as though the curse came as a surprise. 

Some folks claim that the Jews came under a curse after they rejected Christ as their Messiah. But the Jews had already rejected God centuries before Christ came into the world. 

During the time of the ancient prophet Samuel, the Jews asked for a human king to rule over them, prompting the Lord to tell Samuel this: "Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king. As they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you. Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will claim as his rights." (1 Samuel 8:7-9)

Thus, the Jews have lived in rebellion against God for over 3,000 years. And yet, despite their chronic rebellion, the Lord has preserved a remnant of them throughout history. Just as the world's ageless persecution of the Jews defies logic, so does the fact that the Jews continue to exist today despite the numerous attempts to destroy them throughout the ages.

In fact, the Jews are currently celebrating Purim, a festival dedicated to their triumph over the evil Haman the Agagite who sought to annihilate them about 2,500 years ago while they were living in captivity under the Persians.

Concerning the remnant of the Jews, the apostle Paul wrote this: "I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew. Don’t you know what Scripture says in the passage about Elijah—how he appealed to God against Israel: 'Lord, they have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying to kill me.' And what was God’s answer to him? 'I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.' So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace." (Romans 11:1-5)

That remnant has been preserved by God throughout the centuries. The existence of the Jews today isn't a coincidence, despite the incredible hostility they've endured wherever they've gone in the world throughout history. They've been preserved by the hand of God. 

And the return of Israel as a sovereign world nation in 1948 after 1,800 years also fulfilled God's promises He made to His ancient prophets. However, the world--including a significant portion of the Christian church--refuses to believe that Israel's reestablishment 67 years ago had anything to do with God.

To the contrary, much of the world and part of the church are determined to eliminate Israel. They'll fail, but they'll keep trying. In Part II, why the Islamic world is determined to destroy Israel and eliminate the Jews.

The Road to Fascism

Another freedom gone

Many folks believe that the FCC's recent decision to regulate the internet was just about creating another revenue stream for the U.S. government. Certainly, that's true. But money wasn't the government's only objective.

The U.S. government wants to regulate the internet the way it regulates public utility companies. And it wants to establish policies that will make it practically impossible for conservative websites and bloggers to expose its agendas.

Though the FCC vehemently denies this, that was the proverbial Trojan Horse in its 3-2 decision. How can we be sure that restricting free speech was one of the main goals in the FCC's decision? Because the decision was praised by Barack Obama who's become the ultimate enemy of conservatives in America. And if Obama praises something, then you know it's bad for those who embrace freedom and limited government.

Here's what he said: "Earlier today (Thursday, Feb. 26), the FCC voted to protect a free and open Internet -- the kind of Internet that allows entrepreneurs to thrive and debates over duck-sized horses and horse-sized ducks to persist. This would not have happened without the activism and engagement of millions of Americans like you. And that was a direct result of communities like reddit. (Reddit.com) So to all the redditors who participated in this movement, I have a simple message: Thank you."  

Entrepreneurs certainly won't thrive under government regulations. They'll be stifled while small startup companies with marginal capital will be crushed. The internet will be controlled by giant monoliths such as Comcast, Time Warner and Cox. And these companies will be subordinate to the authority of the U.S. government.

The government will decide what folks can publish and what they can't. For example, a Christian website that attempts to publish scripture verses that are considered offensive to Muslims or gays will either be blocked from publishing the material; fined or even removed from the internet. 

And certainly, anyone who attempts to expose government corruption will be thwarted and condemned. For now, the government, i.e. Obama administration, has had to rely on its media lackeys to protect it from scrutiny. But in the future, that won't be necessary if the government succeeds in regulating the internet.

It will probably take several years for that to happen. There will be the inevitable court battles that will challenge the legality of a government-regulated internet. Given the tortoise-like pace of the U.S. judicial system, these challenges could take years. But eventually, the government will win out because it always does. Unlike its challengers, it has the time and it has the money. 

Though the internet has a lot of garbage, it also has a lot of serious investigative journalists who've been able to expose the type of political and financial corruption that the big white elephant newspapers and TV networks no longer cover because they've gotten too cozy with the White House and Wall Street. 

Anyone who's been around long enough remembers how a small website at the time named the Drudge Report revealed the sordid sexual affair President Bill Clinton had with an intern named Monica Lewinsky during the 1990s. Though Clinton's philandering was legendary, no traditional media outlet wanted to write about it. Only Drudge did and the rest is history. 

Lewinsky said this: "Thanks to the internet and a website that at the time was scarcely known outside of Washington D.C. but a website we all know today: the Drudge Report, within 24 hours I became a public figure, not just in the United States but around the entire globe. As far as major news stories were concerned this was the very first time that the traditional media was usurped by the internet."

Had the internet been under the control of the federal government in the 1990s, it's possible that the Lewinsky affair would have gone unreported and Bill Clinton would've avoided an embarrassing scandal that led to his impeachment. But that was then and this is now.

And the future promises to be even dimmer because a world government is coming that will possess the power to regulate and control everything from the internet to speech to freedom of movement to who lives and who doesn't on planet earth. The apostle John revealed this concerning the coming dreaded Antichrist and his world government: "And he was given power to make war against the saints (Christians) and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation." (Revelation 13:7)

Thus, the road to fascism--like hell--is usually paved with good intentions. A government controlled internet? That's a very bad idea.

Bibi and Bobo

Benjamin Netanyahu and Barack Obama

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu is scheduled to deliver a critical speech this week (March 3) before a joint session of Congress. He'll use his speech to outline the threat that a nuclear Iran poses not only to his nation, but to the entire world.

It's no secret that the Obama Administration doesn't want Bibi to deliver that speech. The administration has been sharply critical of Netanyahu ever since he had the audacity to accept an invitation from House Speaker John Boehner to speak to Congress without first getting Obama's approval.

Of course, Obama would never have approved Bibi's appearance. He doesn't want the leader of the only democratic nation in the Middle East to tell the Congress and the world that the Iranian mullahs have absolutely no intention of honoring a recent agreement they made with the P5+1 nations (The U.S., China, France, the United Kingdom, Russia and Germany) concerning their nuclear program.

The agreement is a terrible one that requires the Islamic nation to limit its nuclear centrifuges (6,500) for a period of 10 years before it can go full throttle and produce as many as it wants. According to the agreement, the limitations placed upon Iran's nuclear program will supposedly prevent the nation from building nuclear weapons.

Netanyahu doesn't believe the Iranians have any intention of honoring the agreement. And neither does anyone else with a functioning brain. The Iranians practice something called "al Taqiyya" that's often used in the Islamic world to deceive non-Muslims. What's al Taqiyya? It's means the lie and Muslims believe that Allah encourages them to use it against their enemies to deceive and defeat them. 

The Israeli PM is very familiar with al Taqiyya, and after he read the terms of the recent agreement, he said this: "The leader (Ayatollah Ali Khamenei)  of this country that is depicted by some as moderate, the Islamic State of Iran, has said in the last 48 hours: 1) that he calls for the annihilation of Israel — his words, not mine; 2) he gives nine ways and reasons of how and why Israel should be annihilated — his words, not mine...He's publicly calling for the annihilation of Israel as he is negotiating a nuclear deal with the P5+1 countries, This terrorist regime in Iran must not be allowed to become a nuclear threshold power.

Netanyahu certainly isn't the only one who recognizes the extreme danger that a nuclear Iran poses to the world. Saudi Arabia also recognizes it and the Saudis, who've given up on Obama, are making plans to purchase nukes from Pakistan in anticipation of a nuclear Iran. 

Does Obama truly understand what he's dealing with concerning Iran? He surely does. But he doesn't care. He's all about himself and expanding his phony legacy. He wants his legacy to portray him as a great man of peace who ended wars and brought the world together as one. Remember that he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 even though he did absolutely nothing to deserve it.

This may sound harsh, but so be it. Barack Obama is a clown who's undeserving of the dignity of the most powerful office in the world. He's the poster-boy for a narcissistic culture that gorges on self-accolades like a starving man consumes food. And his true legacy will define him as absolutely the worst president in the history of the republic. I can't even begin to imagine anyone worse than him.

The leader of the world's greatest superpower has a responsibility to protect Israel and all the nations on earth from murderous regimes rather than to imperil their safety for the sake of his own delusional fantasies. 

In his own mind, Barack Obama thinks he's a great man. And he has an army of throne sniffers to feed his ravenous ego. But he's just another puffed up politician who's setting himself up for a big fall. As Jesus Christ once said: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." (Matthew 23:12)

God will protect Israel, even if Obama refuses to. And woe to those who imperil Israel's safety. As the Lord said to Abraham a long time ago concerning his offspring: "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." (Genesis 12:3)
