Each must make a choice.....

"God declares through His servant John regarding this indefinable behemoth: Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.

(Revelation 17:5).

Renowned Encyclopedia Britannica describes this

political/ecclesiastical behemoth: “The papacy is the oldest continuing, absolute monarchy in the world. 

--To many the pope is the infallible interpreter of divine revelation and the vicar of Christ; 

--to others he is the fulfillment of the Biblical prophecies about the coming of the Antichrist” (Encyclopedia Britannica, page 877).

IN the NEWS - What Does A Catholic Halloween Party Look Like?

---Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing;...
---Abstain from all appearance of evil.
2 Corinthians 6:17/1 Thessalonians 5:22

"Guilherme Peixoto, also known as DJ Priest, is a Catholic priest

who led a dance party for 1.5 million young Catholics before Pope Francis’ Sunday morning mass at World Youth Day 2023. 

Now, the same Catholic priest played his dance music at the Monsterland Halloween Festival 2023, the largest Halloween party in Italy. Guilherme Peixoto has the Pope’s blessing , and this party priest participates in pagan festivals that glorify witchcraft and Satanism through dance music.

Q: How do Catholic priests transmit the faith through club music or minister to those who are dressed up like vampires, zombies, monsters, skeletons, and witches?
These representations and horrible music are designed to bring you to Satan, not Christ.

These Catholic priest-led Halloween events are aggressive marketing campaigns meant to immerse kids into spiritualism."

Creation Moment 11/4/2023 - Mental Illness of a Darwiniain Worldview

I have seen the foolish taking root: Job 5:3

"Should trees be given equal rights to people?

A dangerous trend is rooted in Darwinism.

‘Killing’ trees: How true environmental protection requires a revolution in how we talk about, and with, our forests (The Conversation, 30 Oct 2023). Sarah Abbott, an art professor at the University of Regina (not a scientist), gets the stage at this soapbox for academic nuts and flakes. Abbott loves trees (as most people do). But she thinks we need to talk to them:

Behind all discourse are systems of language, behavior and belief.

Contemporary discourse reflects and shapes people’s belief that trees are living community members or inanimate materials to be used for human well-being.

This binary gets complicated when people understand the aliveness of trees and their relations with non-human life while prioritizing human economic value and need of trees.

Beyond talking to our local trees, do we need to give them equal rights?

In 1972, American legal and environmental scholar Christopher Stone called for the rights and moral standing of trees, stating it is neither inevitable nor wise that beings of nature should have no rights, standing or voice in human society.

Rather than assume and impose that non-humans have no voice, we humans need to recognize the limitations in our capacity to listen. Discourse is not only human.

Trees have standing (they grow upright) but not in the legal sense. We don’t hear them making arguments for their existence. What motivates Abbott’s sermon to give rights to trees? Guess:

The ongoing controversy around plant intelligence links to the perception that “intelligence” cannot apply to organisms lacking organs responsible for intelligent functioning, or movement.

Conversely, renowned Italian botanist and scholar Stefano Mancuso argues that it is impossible and evolutionarily unrealistic to consider any form of life as lacking intelligence. This includes “plants, which being unable to move, must necessarily solve their problems.”

Ah yes, Darwin: the prophet for the modern pantheistic religion of emergence “gives rise to” another misanthropic Darwin Effect." CEH

Self-Ordained "Vicar" of God & Mysticism of the "Queen of Heaven"

The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. Jeremiah 7:18

"Let the reader now couple with the reference to the reformation under Wycliffe and Huss, the following which appeared in the Tablet of October 1, 1887. 

It was published beneath the Papal arms, and was entitled, “a letter

of our Holy Father Pope Leo XIII the Bishops of Italy, on the Rosary: 

--Since God has called us to govern His church on earth, 

--we have sought to use every possible means that we deemed suitable, 

--for the sanctification of souls, and the extension of the reign of Jesus Christ. 

None, however, can be surprised that we showed special care for the Italian people, for our Divine Master Jesus Christ chose, from out all the world, 

--Italy to be the seat of His Vicar on earth, and in His providential designs appointed Rome to be the capital of the Catholic world. 

 Above all, 

--in this city of Rome, where Christ’s Vicar has his See,......we feel a still greater desire to call upon the Mother of God, and to ask her

help. And our most lively and sure hope is placed in the Queen of the Rosary, who has shown herself, since she has been invoked by that title, so ready to help the church and Christian peoples in their necessities. 

Why in this hour of need should we not behold again such marvels of the power and goodness of the August Virgin, for the good of the church and its Head, and of the whole Christian world, if the faithful only revive on their part the magnificent examples of piety given by their forefathers under similar circumstances." E.J. Waggoner

Creation Moment 11/2/2023 - Linguist Charles Taylor Nails It

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form

and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. Genesis 1:1-5

"The first thing God tells us in the Bible is that there was a beginning. Not a beginning to God, but a beginning to time and to the Earth and to the space-time environment in which we live. 

These words assure us that, as linguist Charles Taylor says, ‘The universe was no accident, though many evolutionists think so, and some Eastern religions suggest so, with a near-eternal universe and gods emerging from it." AIG

Will this be the Last - Ultimate Crises Era?

One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh:

but the earth abideth for ever. 

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be;
Ecclesiastes 1:4,9

We have a Historical and Generational flow problem.
Q: How might this play out for the End Times?

Q: Will this Hiccup in our Historical Flow of Cycles be the Last Crises Era - the Ultimate One people have waited for?

(I was doing research papers on this topic about 3 decades ago at Ball State all the way back

to the Merovingian dynasty in France following the collapse of Rome. Also dabbled in some research on the topic in ancient Babylon and Persia. Have been watching History unfold since the 90's on this topic)

We are WAY, WAY Overdue for the climax of this Crises Era in this Historical Cycle. When it's later than its scheduled flow in History it's always worse than the last.

History comes in 4 Part Cycles:

I. Springlike High (In this cycle it was the post war boom of the late 40's to the early 60's--where people went about to rebuild the nation state such as the boom of suburbia and our interstate highway system--the "Leave it the Beaver Years" of one spouse working and able to pay for everything--crime rates drop).

II. Long Hot Summer of a Spiritual Awakening (In this cycle it was the Boomer Awakening of the 60's & 70's with the "Jesus People" on the streets, social protest and the rise of a spiritual/Religious Right looking for building a utopia and a secular Left looking for a secular utopia).

III. Cooling off of a Fall like Unraveling (In this cycle it was the 80's to around 9/11 with the rise of cynicism--as the utopia's are failed to be reached, and the nation crushed by the ending 70's inflation forcing the end to the "Leave it to Beaver" years. Voter participation plummeted and it culminated with the Perot movement reflecting the cynicism as well as the cynicism characterized by the "I didn't inhale" to "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" mentality).

IV. Cold Winter Crises (The spark was 9/11----still waiting for the rest--uh oh--not good).

The Crises Era has 4 sub-parts:

I. Spark (In the last Crises Era, WW2 and the Great Depression, the Spark was the Stock Market Crash of 1929 and the onset of the Great Depression. This time it was 9/11---the projected date was

around 2005. IF a Spark comes more than 3 years to soon or late it usually is a much worse Crises than the last one, 2001 was 4 years early).

II. Regenerance (In the last Crise Era the government restructured with the New Deal to deal with the Depression. This time the government restructured with Homeland Security to deal with the War on Terror in the aftermath of 9/11).

III. Climax (In the last Crises it was WW2---there is always a War where there is a Winner and Loser and where fate truly hangs in the balance. The projected should have been around 2012----we are WAT, WAY overdue--the most ever--NOT GOOD).

IV. Resolution (In the last Crises Era it was twofold: 1- the U.S. would be the Leader of the Free World as a result of the War and 2- we went from a Capitalist Economy to a Mixed Economy with both Capitalism and watered Socialism which is what a Welfare State is, as a result of the Depression. One can see God's hand in the unfolding of the outcome in the first as the U.S. was set up to fulfill its calling in Prophecy as the Land Beast of Revelation. -- But with this Crises Era taking WAY, WAY too long--uh oh--get ready).

*There are 4 Generational Types that repeat themselves--coming of Age during different parts of the bigger 4-part cycle and in turn are molded by a part they come of Age in and then impact another part when in public leadership in society.

*Each has 2 waves; a 1st wave that reflects their generational personality and bears marks of the previous and a 2nd wave that reflects their generational personality and bears marks the next.

*Each Generation has 3 sub-groups. The Leaders (who reflect in the Public Arena their Generational Image) The Followers (the majority who follow along) and the Rebels (the small group who go against their Generational Inage and try to act like a different generation).

I. Civic (Choleric type) like the GI generation of WW2 who become a powerful generation because they won the War you couldn't afford to lose. In their elder years began to demand senior citizen discounts and began their own retirement communities to cluster together---coming of Age during the War.

II. Adaptive (Phlegmatic type) that are shaped as a Compromise Generation as a result of being children during the Crises--a much more dutiful generation---coming of Age in the aftermath.

III. Idealistic (Sanguine type) like the Baby Boomers experimenting in their collective youth just wanting to have fun and something deeper--giving rise to the self-help nonsense---coming of Age at the apex of the materialistic boom.

IV. Reactive (Melancholy type) like my fellow Gen Xer's who want to be self-reliant and left alone as a generation. A mentality of Get-It-Done and move on---coming of Age during the cynical Unraveling.

Q: So, what happened to Millennials and GenZ?

A: Millennials (Gen Y technically) were to be our next Civic Generation--akin to the GI generation of WW2, they missed their calling. The Big War didn't happen during their coming of Age. 

They had nothing of substance to focus on. Sure, there was the War on Terror, but it didn't escalate into what people thought it could at the time and faded and fizzled. I noticed them in the early 2000's forming little villages among themselves--like the last Civic generation did with retirement communities--only this time they were doing it in their youth with Social Media Villages such as MySpace. etc.

As a result of having nothing to focus on, it seems to me 

----THEY WERE LEFT TO THEIR OWN DEVICES OF SOCIAL MEDIA and that is where are problems arise from. They were impacted by people with DISEASED IMAGINATIONS and POLITIOCAL AGENDAS by a few controlling Big-tech and now we see them living in a world in their own head--the rise of Woke

and SJW poison that has fractured the culture.

Now GenZ, that was supposed to be the next Adaptive generation, which has lived through a little turmoil as youth like COVID Lockdowns, have for the most part been impacted by Tik Tok and Big Tech. This is where we went from 10% of Millennials thinking their gay to 25% of GenZ. They are following in the path of Millennials as they have no societal calling and instead live in a Tik Tok world of their own making.

We can't win a WW3 when a whole generation was influenced to HATE their country--tearing down statues of Washington, Jefferson and even Lincoln--a generation brainwashed that their country is a White Supremacist nation, where they live in a world where there are more than 2 genders (a world that does not exist) and where, not more than a generation after 9/11 we see them shepherded into supporting Islamofascism in the Gaza-Israel conflict. 

****Sounds like someone behind the scenes has been trying to

thwart the Land Beast's rendezvous with Prophetic Destiny---but it will all work out.

Q: Will this overdue Crises Era be the Ultimate one? And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. Revelation 16:16

Q: Are the Generational and Historical Flow Patterns of History Designed to Lead to, and Culminate in the Gathering?

Most Like Their Sin

We often hear that many who are mired in sin are filling a void -- looking for God. Although that may be true for some, for most it is not, most like their sin -- as Scripture tells us.

I. The children of Israel longed for a return to slavery in Egypt: ....were it not better for us to return into Egypt? And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into

Egypt.
Numbers 14:3,4

II. It's like a dog returning to its vomit: As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly. 

Proverbs 26:11

III. They even like when others do it: ....who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. 

Romans 1:32

Creation Moment 11/2/2023 - Salt Everywhere -- Even Jupiter

Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Hebrews 1:2

"Two poisonous elements: an explosive solid and a toxic gas, when combined, make one of the most useful and ubiquitous substances we know: sodium chloride, or salt.

Just add salt: Researcher discovers a safe, simple way to make disinfectants work better (University of Alberta, 23 Oct 2023). This team found that disinfectants are more effective with salt.

Adding salt to the mix in quantities above 2.5 per cent weight per

volume can make a huge difference. But it has nothing to do with the chemical properties of the salt itself, says Choi. Rather, as the alcohol and water in the disinfectant evaporate, the salt recrystallizes and grows, physically destroying the cell walls of pathogens. By adding salt, we can add another mechanism — physical destruction — to the chemical destruction, and we can cause the rapid inactivation of pathogens faster and more efficiently, without any concern about mutations or structural difference.

The Solar System’s biggest moon is spattered with salt (Nature, 30 Oct 2023). Salts and Organics Observed on Ganymede’s Surface by NASA’s Juno (NASA, 31 Oct 2023). 

 The Juno spacecraft is discovering amazing things about Jupiter’s moons. Ganymede, Jupiter’s largest which beats Titan for size by a bit, is now found to have salt on its surface. Don’t be confused by

NASA’s term “organics” — it just means molecules containing carbon, not substances associated with life.

The JIRAM data of Ganymede obtained during the flyby achieved an unprecedented spatial resolution for infrared spectroscopy – better than 0.62 miles per pixel. With it, Juno scientists were able to detect and analyze the unique spectral features of non-water-ice materials, including hydrated sodium chloride, ammonium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and possibly aliphatic aldehydes."

God's Eschatological Chessboard: World War 3, America and Prophecy

Glimpse of God's Eschatological Chessboard (pardon the phraseology) and how it functions behind the veil of the seen and unseen in this Great Controversy between God and His opponent played out on the Space Fabric of Time.

But the prince of the kingdom of Persia (Persia ruled the known world at the time--hence

Lucifer, the ruler of this world) withstood me (tried to thwart God's plans behind the scenes) one and twenty days: (21 years) but, lo, Michael, (Christ) one of the chief princes, (of the Triune Godhead) came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia (trying to influence them to take moves to guide the flow of history)...Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: (the struggle continues behind the veil of the seen and unseen).

Daniel 10:13,20

IF a WW III erupts on earth will the U.S. fall?

On the surface it would seem likely we would be defeated...we are Weak, Woke and Broke.

Our Politics are Divided. 

The Republicans in a Civil War over Ukraine (between those

"Putin is bad doesn't mean Ukraine is good"
 says G.O.P. candidate Ramaswamy

supporting Ukraine fully and those saying "pox on both their houses" of Russia and Ukraine).

The Democrats in a Civil War over Israel (between those supporting Israel and those supporting the Palestinians and thereby by extension Hamas whom they put and keep in power with their votes in Gaza).

"Biden Walks a Tightrope on Israel-Gaza
as Democratic Tensions Smolder" NYT's Headline

From one extreme of those calling for "regime change" in Russia of

a duly elected President in a Democracy to the other extreme of those aligning themselves on the streets in a movement that in recent days has had people on camera chanting "gas the Jews".,,,and in the midst of all this comes reports that the U.S. is meddling in Ukraine's affairs trying to find a way to replace Zelensky with another candidate in Ukraine's 2024 elections because the Biden Administration backed war is floundering.

Q: But what about Prophecy?

The U.S. (Land Beast of Revelation) has a role to play---to remain the most powerful nation on earth in order to pressure the world into the Mark of the Beast.

So the apparent moves on God's Eschatological Chessboard could include:

1) War is avoided and American hegemony, though weakened, remains intact.

2) WW III breaks out, a time of trouble like never before seen hits

the earth, and the Little Horn of Daniel (Sea Beast of Revelation whose Mark is implemented on the world) cries Peace, Peace....then Peace comes, the Mark of the Beast is pushed at Global peace talks as part of the solution as natural disasters heat up and Laudato Si' is whipped out. (*perhaps natural calamities are what causes a pause in the devastating war in the first place)....the world would also have pushed at the spiritually Ecumenical - Little Horn sponsored Peace Talks a Global

Programmable Digital Currency to address the collapsed Global Economy (and thereby control buying and selling) then after the cries of Peace, Peace sudden Destruction comes (as a result of the Mark of the Beast) as Probation Closes a short time after and the 7 Last Plagues pour out.

3) WW III does break out, but the U.S. and its Allies win a surprising quick Victory and set the table for the Beast Power anyway.

4) God comes up with another move no man on earth has thought of.

IN the NEWS - Tik Tok Narco Queen and the Lesson of Proverbs 4

Enter not into the path of the wicked, 

and go not in the way of evil men. 

Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. 

For they eat the bread of wickedness, 

and drink the wine of violence. 

The way of the wicked is as darkness: 

they know not at what they stumble.
Proverbs 4:14,15,17,19

"News broke in late October 2023 that Sabrina Durán Montero, a "narco influencer" who had hundreds of thousands of followers on TikTok, had died. Sabrina, who was just 24 years old, died under pretty horrific circumstances, and reporting suggests that she earned her "narco" reputation. She attracted a lot of attention on TikTok because she was the Narco Queen.

Sabrina was apparently shot in broad daylight in her car in Chile, and now, many want to better understand what happened to her, and why

she was killed. 

Durán, a mother-of-one, was on her way to a nail salon when she was stopped by three men in the Santiago town of Padre Hurtado. Chilling video recorded by a bystander showed Sabrina Durán, 24, lying face down in the middle of a street in Santiago on Tuesday morning after being shot by a masked assailant. 

In the footage Durán is already seen laying on the ground trying to get up when a gunman steps forward and fires multiple shots before using her vehicle to escape. The killers stole her vehicle following the hit, and it was found burnt about a half-hour away from the scene of the crime. Sabrina was rushed to a local hospital following the shooting with eight gunshot wounds, but doctors were unable to save her.

Sabrina and two of her brothers were apparently arrested at the beginning of 2023 because they were suspected of supplying, distributing and trafficking cannabis, cocaine, MDMA, and magic mushrooms.

While she was incarcerated, Sabrina apparently began a relationship with Antonella Marchant, the leader of the Los Marchant gang who was arrested in 2021 and is currently spending 15 years in prison.
She attempted to escape prison by jumping from the third floor with other inmates before they were all captured.

Sabrina was apparently on parole at the time of her death. Sabrina

posted on TikTok under the handle @katrinagusman, and has more than 600,000 followers....Sabrina was a famed local drug trafficker who went by the alias “La Ina." Police believe that her killing may have been a move to settle scores by a rival drug gang. Local police chief Leonel Muñoz said that Sabrina “had a criminal record, specifically for receiving stolen vehicles and drug trafficking, and had been released from serving a sentence approximately a month ago."

Scary Harari

They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth. Psalm 73:9

"Yuval Noah Harari, is an atheist gay Israeli author with an Oxford PhD in Philosophy who practices buddhist vipassana meditation two hours a day.....Harari published Homo Deus: A brief history of tomorrow....How does he define religion?

"Religion is any all-encompassing story that confers superhuman

legitimacy on human laws, norms, and values. It legitimizes human social structures by arguing that they reflect superhuman laws. More than a century after Nietzsche pronounced him dead, God seems to be making a comeback. But this is a Mirage. God is dead. It’s just taking a while to get rid of the body."

Harari says humans replaced one religion with another, replaced God-centered belief with a new belief in humanity. That is, that humans shifted from the worship of God to the worship of self. 

Who then is the greatest threat to this worship of self? Harari’s words:

"Throughout history, prophets and philosophers have argued that if

humans stopped believing in a great cosmic plan, all law and order would vanish. Yet today, those who pose the greatest threat to global law and order are precisely those people who continue to believe in God and his all-encompassing plans."

Harari subdivides humanism into three branches: liberal humanism (LH), socialist humanism (SH), and evolutionary humanism (EH), corresponding loosely to what we might call liberalistic, socialistic, and evolutionistic ways of thinking.

In socialist humanism the party makes the decisions that matter; think USSR. Wisdom resides with the leaders of the collective.

Then there is evolutionary humanism. Harari says:

"Hitler and the Nazis represent only one extreme version of evolution or humanism. Just as Stalin’s gulags do not automatically nullify every socialist idea and argument, so too the horrors of Nazism should not blind us to whatever insights evolutionary humanism might offer…. Auschwitz should serve as a blood-red warning sign rather than as a black curtain that hides entire sections of the human horizon. Evolutionary humanism played an important part in the shaping of modern culture, and is likely to play an even greater role in the shaping of the twenty-first century."

Harari sees the future as evolutionary humanism, or more accurately, transhumanism.

In the final section of his book Harari sets out to deconstruct the value, even the concept, of the individual. According to Harari, man is not an individual, he is a bundle of algorithms.

And so he states the superiority of the new religion.

"When you read the Bible you are getting advice from a few priests

and rabbis who lived in ancient Jerusalem . In contrast, when you listen to your feelings, you follow an algorithm that evolution has developed for millions of years, and that withstood the harshest quality-control tests of natural selection. Your feelings are the voice of millions of ancestors, each of whom managed to survive and reproduce in an unforgiving environment. Your feelings are not infallible, of course, but they are better than most other sources of guidance.”

We didn’t ask for the changes Harari predicts to happen, and we won’t be asked. 

We are being directed onward as rats in a maze. Powerful persons who literally do not understand reality are bent on changing the world right underneath our feet."

Creation Moment 11/1/2023 - The External Context

These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,.. Genesis 2:4

"The external context for the Creation and Flood is as follows:

The chronology that places these events in an absolute position on an

overall Biblical time scale, i.e. 4004 BC for the Creation week, 2348 BC for the Flood event, etc. 
The sequence, or order of occurrence of the separate events, i.e., the Flood occurred after the Creation, and
The duration, consisting of the elapsed time of 1656 years between the two events (Genesis 5:3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 25, 28; 7:6 and 11) wherein the ‘days and years’ of Genesis 5, are defined in the time-measuring system, the astronomical clock, set up on Day 4 of the creation week (Genesis 1:14)."

Puritan Corner - Inverse Relationship of Wounds vs. Kisses

"God's wounds cure — sin's kisses kill!"

by (William Gurnall) 1616-1679

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.---But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.
Romans 6:23/Isaiah 53:5
