Judgment on America

Greetings from KookAmongUs!

Judgment on America by Jenifer Sides

“First of all I need to make something clear right from the get go. Any nation who goes up against Israel will be judged, period. With that said, in the past few months this great nation’s Godly heritage has been smeared through the blood of Christ more so during the Obamanation than any other presidency.”

The Holy City Jerusalem

“Now, to make things worse, our nation’s leaders are pressing Israel to divide their land. Thing is, it is the land of God’s chosen people. It is the center point of the whole world. It holds the holy city Jerusalem and most important it is the very place where heaven will come down and we will have peace once and for all. Amen!

Now, to make things worse, our nation’s leaders are pressing Israel to divide their land. Thing is, it is the land of God’s chosen people. It is the center point of the whole world. It holds the holy city Jerusalem and most important it is the very place where heaven will come down and we will have peace once and for all. Amen!”

Three Biblical Facts

“I am going to present you with three biblical facts as to why America and any other nation for that matter needs to befriend Israel and not seek to destroy or divide their freedoms. Bible facts – not Koran.

In 2nd Kings 19:10; King Hezekiah prayed to God that Jerusalem would not be given over to the King of Assyria. 2nd Kings 19:35-37 tells us that in the middle of the night the people of Assyria were about to attack Hezekiah and his people. Before they were able to do so an angel of the Lord killed 185,000 Assyrians. When Hezekiah and his people awoke the next morning they knew Hezekiah’s prayer had been answered when they saw the dead corpses.

If America does not assist in an attempted takeover directly, I still wonder, how much more the Lord would judge the nations who are accessories in warranting heinous crimes towards Israel’s humanity. In Ezekiel 38 & 39; speaking of this day and age; Russia, Persia, Ethiopia, Libya and several others will devise a plan to attack the people of Israel for their worldly goods. Those armies will be destroyed by flooding rain, great hailstones, fire, brimstone and various other disasters.

Finally, in Revelation 20:7-10, Russia attempts to surround the holy city Jerusalem and the Lord strikes again. This time they will ultimately be cast into the lake of fire once and for all. There are several more examples all throughout the Bible of how the Lord protects His people. But know this; those of us who have partaken of the gift of life which Jesus gave us by dying on the cross can be protected by this same holy and loving God.

Romans 11:11 proclaims salvation for the Gentiles; having been grafted into the vine of Israel. We also received power from on high in Acts 10:45-48 and were allowed water baptism. We can rest in these promises and know the Lord will deliver us from the evil one.”

The 10 Commandments

“In 1962 there was a ruling to take down public displays of The 10 Commandments. The 10 Commandments are God’s moral standard; given to us in Exodus Chapter 20 as a blueprint on how to conduct ourselves. Since the ruling was passed to disgrace this great nation, we have seen an outrageous rise in statistics such as violent crime, abortion rates, divorce, suicide and various other disturbing acts of disobedience. These days just when we think we have seen or heard it all, some sin we have never heard of takes root and a new fad begins. The blind drag the blind even deeper into the pit of darkness as the domino effect of sin rages on.

In removing His commandments we have become exceedingly and increasingly divided against ourselves with many religions pointing to many gods or no god at all. Matthew 12:25 says, “A house divided against itself will not stand.” I tend to believe the saying goes just as much for a nation.”

The Lord Made Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve

“I’m sorry; I have to use this old but true phrase. The Lord made Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve. Yes, I am now on the bandwagon of speaking out against homosexuality. The first fact about this topic can be found in the very first book of the Bible in Genesis Chapter 2. Just to set the record straight; I am not making fun of or judging the homosexual nor am I condemning you. John 3:18 says, “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. I am also not saying I am any better than the homosexual either.

To sum it up; 1st Corinthians 6:9-11 says, “We were all unrighteous at one time and to not forget where we came from.” Every since Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden we were all born of the sinful nature; but once we accept the Lord as our way of salvation we must put off the former self and become new. With that said; I have to list the most obvious scripture verse that speaks out against homosexuality.”

“The homosexual will not inherit the Kingdom of God.”

“1st Corinthians 6:9 says, “The homosexual will not inherit the Kingdom of God.” Know this homosexual; this does not mean Jesus loves you less or does not love you at all. But just as Adam and Eve you have a choice. They were thrown out of the Garden. They had the good life as we have never known and they blew it. You will never even get a taste of the best He has in store for you in heaven much less here on earth if you do not repent of your sin. We have recently had a few states pass homosexual marriage laws and I feel it is only just the beginning. You can read about the following in the “Obama” section.

Obama stated, “America is now the largest Muslim nation.” Well guess what! It will not be too long from now that we will also be able to applaud ourselves as being the largest homosexual nation when voicing our groundbreaking list of accomplishments!” Now would be a good time to pause and give our selfish egos a big group hug while the going is still good! I say, “while the going is still good” because those groundbreaking events will eventually lead to the earth shattering when the Lord God Almighty comes down and splits the Mount of Olives. He will strike the nations who dishonored Him with His sword and rule them with a rod of iron as we are told in Revelation 19:11-16.

Recently a school district in California has approved a mandatory homosexual curriculum for children as young as 5 on up to the 5th grade level – and parents will not be allowed to remove their children from the lessons. Read about it in the “Current Events” section. This degradation is just one more dishonorable act of ignorance in our nations biblically uneducated and immoral human rights advocates. The following info can be viewed in the “Judgment on America” links.”

The United States Owes the People’s Republic of China $739 Billion Dollars

“Last but not least I present to you how indebted we are to China. The United States owes the People’s Republic of China $739 billion dollars, which breaks down to each and every man, woman and child in America owing the Chinese government about $2,500. That is not even counting how much we are out in all the bailouts in previous months. Why could it not have been some little country like Nepal who does not have enough manpower to obliterate us to smithereens? No, we have to go and pick a giant who can cripple us enough that we could become a nation that is almost nonexistent.”

The Bible Says Not to Owe Anything to Anyone

“The Bible says in Romans 13:8 not to owe anything to anyone. I would think that applies just as much to a country as it does an individual. It is such an important issue that Jesus made it a point to speak parables of wisdom as a warning not to get caught up in such affairs. I know you have to understand how crazy people can get over money that is owed to them. Banks foreclose homes over it. Recently people have lost their jobs in record numbers. How much more crazy can a country become over such a debt? China is already coming to America and buying us out of properties which have been foreclosed on. Anyway, I am about to get into subjects that probably have to do with my upcoming Global Economic Crisis article.”

The Topic of Impending Judgment upon America

“I must come to a close now. I am sure all of this information I have presented to you is just the tip of the iceberg. If I sat down and thought about it long enough and hard enough I have no doubt I could come up with a lengthy list of many more of America’s shortcomings.

The topic of impending judgment upon America is not something that I necessarily like to hear, think or talk about but I am not the one who makes the rules. The Lord Almighty is in charge of that. I am simply acting as the mouthpiece of a watchman; hoping that these words have spoken to your conscience in a way you will be forever changed for His glory. Amen! Amen and Amen! Peace to you.  Thanks for reading!”

EMPTY SEAT NUMBER 666 The Vacant Seat Number 666 in the European Parliament

Greetings from KookAmongUs!

The following is from the website http://www.jesus-is-savior.com

EMPTY SEAT NUMBER 666

The Vacant Seat Number 666 in the European Parliament

The Tower Building (named after the Tower of Babel) houses the Fifth Parliament of Europe. It is certainly a building of the Space Age. The seats are designed like the crew seats in the Star Trek space machines.

The legislative amphitheater is arranged in a massive hemicircle and has 679 seats, each assigned to a particular lawmaker. For example, Seat 663 is assigned to Rep Souchet, 664 to Thomas-Mauro, 665 to Zizzner and 667 to Rep Cappato.While these seats are allocated to Members, one seat remains unallocated and unoccupied. The number of that seat is 666.

The relevant section of the seating-plan provided to each Member reads as follows: 660 Marchiani661 Montfort662 Quiero663 Souchet664 Thomas-Mauro665 Zizzner666 ——-667 Cappato668 Turco669 Bonino670 Pannella671 Dupuis672 Della Vedova

Revelation 13:18 states: “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” That is 666. Today this Scripture is being fulfilled before our very eyes. The Antichrist’s seat will be occupied. The world awaits his full and final development. The Lord will destroy him by the spirit of His mouth (the Word of God) and by the brightness of His coming (2nd Thessalonians 2:8). The coming of the Lord draweth nigh. The Brussels EU Parliament Building The European Union (EU) parliament, consisting of 785 members, is in Brussels, Belgium. Quite magnificent, is it not?

Interestingly, the seat numbered 666 is never occupied. Perhaps they are leaving it open for someone special? … The Antichrist! Photo above: The Brussels, Belgium EU Parliament Building InteriorPhoto above: Known officially as the Tower Building and unofficially as the “Crystal Palace.” Here’s something really bizarre. The E.U.’s chosen symbol is a Woman Riding the Beast… The above statue is located outside the EU office in Brussels — A WOMAN RIDING A BEAST! “…and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.” —Revelation 17:3

The depiction of the same symbol was reproduced on the centenary stamp of the E.U. and in a huge painting in the Parliament’s Tower Building in Brussels. Photo below: Second Election European Parliament postage stamp issued in 1984 Below: European Poster promoting all the languages of Europe working on a modern Tower of Babel Photo below: European Currency: The Euro depicting a Woman Riding a Beast Photos below: Compare the Parliament building (top) in Strasbourg with the painting of the Tower of Babel (bottom)?

The Tower of Babel Here’s a photo below of Condoleezza Rice at the United Nations in 2005 with the numbers 666 behind her. Notice how the logo below was cleverly designed, celebrating the UN’s 60th anniversary, to appear as 666 above.UN 60 logohttp://www.un.org/un60/media_oct24.html RECOMMENDATION # 666The purpose of the European Union’s creation was and is, ultimately, to create a European super-state or “United States of Europe,” as some have suggested naming it, that would eventually rival the United States in influence and military might.

In 1999, Javier Solana became the High Representative for the European Union’s foreign and security policy, and through recommendation number 666, he was given emergency powers over the military wing of the European Union in 2000. All that currently remains to create a truly revived Roman Empire is the creation of a permanent executive branch of government and the full integration of the new Euro currency. With the introduction of the new European Union constitution, the groundwork is being laid for just such an executive branch and economic system.

CONCLUSION

Clearly, the European Union is preparing the way for the Man of Sin—The Antichrist! Few people realize just how saturated the United Nations and the European Union are with Satanism. The United Nations has all of their materials printed by The Lucis Trust, originally founded in 1922 as The Lucifer Trust. Please read Basic Understanding of the New World Order. Also, please read A comparison of Javier Solana and the Antichrist (very interesting). Ye Must Be Born Again! | You Need HIS Righteousness!

Reasons for Trusting the Bible as Being True

Reasons for Trusting
the Bible as Being True

It is incredible to think that even though the Bible is the worlds number one best seller it is probably the most neglected, abused, and criticized book in history. Some see it as nothing more than a fiction or piece of fantasy. Others have tried to literally rid the world of as many Bibles as possible, such as some satanic groups, for example, who engage in “Bible burning”. Others still, in the cults, twist the contents of this book for their own purposes. Despite this, the Bible remains as a remarkable book. It has changed the lives of millions throughout history.

But How do we know the Bible a reliable book? Can we examine any pointers that actually indicate that the Bible is truly what it even claims to be, the inspired Word of God? Let us take a look at the evidence:

Self-proclamation

The first fact is that the Bible itself claims to be the Word of God. Jesus Himself viewed the Old Testament as authoritative and quoted from it throughout his ministry, as did the apostles who came after Him. In 2 Peter 3:16 Peter considers all of the apostle Paul’s letters as Scripture. The early Christians knew they were writing the words of God, even though they often did not fully understand what they were writing. As 2 Timothy 3:16 states, “All scripture is inspired by God.” The words, “inspired by God” have the meaning of “that which is breathed out by God.”

Unity

Secondly, the Bible covers hundreds of topics, yet it does not contradict itself. It remains united in its theme. “Well, what’s so amazing about that?” some people may ask. Consider these facts:

* First, the Bible was written over a span of fifteen hundred years.
* Second, it was written by more than forty men from every walk of life. For example, Moses, very intelligent man, educated by the Egyptians. Peter was a simple fisherman, Solomon was a king, Luke was a doctor, Amos was a shepherd, and Matthew was a tax collector. All the writers were of vastly different occupations and backgrounds.
* In addition to this, many of these people also wrote in many different places. The Bible was written on three different continents: Asia, Africa, and Europe. Moses wrote in the desert of Sinai, Paul wrote in a prison in Rome, Daniel wrote in exile in Babylon, and Ezra wrote in the ruined city of Jerusalem.

If we put these factors together, the Bible was written over fifteen hundred years, by forty different authors, at different places, and under various circumstances, addressing a multitude of issues. It is amazing that with such diversity, there is so much agreement in the Bible. This unity is organised around one theme: God’s redemption of humanity and all of creation. Hundreds of controversial subjects are addressed and yet the writers present a harmonious theme. It seems that the only way to explain this incredible unity of the Bible by so many different writers is that one author guided these writers through the whole process: the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:21 states, “No prophecy was ever made by an act of human will but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.”

Transforming Ability

Thirdly, we have evidence concerning the transforming ability of the Bible. Hebrews 4:12 says, “The word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit.” The Word of God and the Holy Spirit of God actually transforms the lives of people. William Wilberforce (1759-1833) became a member of parliament in England when the country was in a state of moral and spiritual decline. People were making a mockery of marriage, the poor were abused and the slave trade was booming, and for a time Wilberforce also went along with these evils. But when he was 25, he travelled to France with one of his former teachers, Isaac Milner. During this trip Wilberforce read and studied the Bible with one of his former teachers, Isaac Milner, and before long surrendered his life over to Christ and was transformed. The things that he had previously been involved in now seemed immoral. The plight of the poor now troubled him; and he soon became the leader in the battle against slavery, which was abolished in England in 1833, primarily due to his efforts. Wilberforce was transformed because he read and then obeyed the Bible.

The Bible has changed the lives of all sorts of people. On the one hand, murderers and drug addicts; and on the other hand, top government officials, business men, and students. No other book can make such a claim. This is because the Bible is not a mere book on good living, but is literally packed with Divine power. It is the Word of God with the power to change lives (see the following link on this site for stories of changed lives: Stories of Freedom).

The Indestructibility of the Bible

The Bible is the most well-known book in the history of the world, but its familiarity has not stopped it from being the most attacked book in the world as well. Throughout history, Bibles have been burned and torn to pieces; Communist regimes have banned it from their country’s and skeptics have tried to destroy its authority.

At seventeen, Voltaire, the famous French opponent of the Bible stood in a crowded auditorium and said of Christ’s first disciples, “It took twelve ignorant fishermen to build Christianity, but I will show you how one Frenchman can destroy it.” He spent a lifetime trying to do just that. But what happened? Voltaire has passed into history and the Bible is more popular than ever. Interestingly, only 50 years after Voltaire’s death the Geneva Bible society used his printing press and his house to produce stacks of Bibles.

The prophet Isaiah recognized the indestructibility of the Word of God when he declared: “The grass withers the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever” (Isaiah 40:8).

Archaeology

Another source of evidence well worth considering comes from discoveries in the field of archaeology. A good example of the historical accuracy of the Bible is found in the person of King Solomon. For years critics of the Bible doubted the description of King Solomon’s wealth as some sort of fairy tale. But between the years 1925-1943 archaeologists unearthed the remains of some of Solomon’s garrisons at Megiddo, in northern Palestine. It was here that archaeologists discovered the remains of horse stables capable of holding hundreds of horses, and the remains of the barracks for Solomon’s chariot riders.

A New Testament example is found in the account where Jesus was brought before the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate, who sentenced him to death. However, the name Pontius Pilate was known only from Jewish and Christian sources; there was never any mention of him from Roman sources. This in itself did not necessarily mean that the Bible was wrong, but it did seem to appear that there was a certain lack of credibility when the Bible spoke of a Roman ruler whose name did not appear anywhere in Roman history. However, during later excavation at Caesarea archaeologists found a stone plaque (recording the dedication of a building) with a Latin inscription naming `Pontius Pilate, Praefect of Judaea.’

So here are just two examples of archaeology authenticating the historical reliability of the Bible. And what is all the more amazing is that in most cases, archaeological digs are often not sponsored by Christian groups seeking to prove the Bible. Most are sponsored by governmental agencies or educational institutions, many of them Jewish or Muslim. Critics of the Bible would be quick to publicize discrepancies if they could find any.

Prophecy

The final evidence for the authenticity of the Bible is from the area of prophecy. The Bible contains hundreds of prophecies which have come to pass. No book in history has even come close to the Bible when it comes to fulfillment of prophecy.

Here are just some examples: More than two centuries before it happened, the prophet Isaiah said that Babylon would be overthrown by the Medes (Isaiah 13:17) and that the conqueror’s name would be Cyrus (Isaiah 44:28).

The Prophet Ezekiel said that the large Babylonian city of Tyre would be scraped away so that only bare rock would remain (Ezekiel 26:4-5). About 60 years later, Alexander the Great tore down its walls and buildings, and with the rubble built a causeway to a nearby island. The city was literally scraped away. Today fishermen dry their nets on the bare rock site of the old city, never rebuilt, exactly as the Bible foretold in the book of Bible Ezekiel (26:14).

One more brief example to illustrate prophetic accuracy in the Bible is that there are over three hundred prophecies made about Jesus in the Old Testament. Prophecies such as His place of birth, how he would die, His rejection by the nation of Israel, and so on. All these prophecies were made hundreds of years before Jesus ever came to earth, and fulfilled in His life and ministry.

This article has only scratched the surface on the subject of the Bible’s reliability. For those wanting to pursue this issue further I would highly recommend the following books, some of which I have used in the writing of this article:

Is Obama the Antichrist? — What Holly Thinks

http://www.fulfilledprophecy.com/page/

Barack Obama — he’s got dazzling charm, a liberal agenda, and a name that suspiciously rhymes with “Osama.” And he’s gearing up to take the reins of the most powerful country in the world.

So, some Christians are wondering: could he be the Antichrist?

No. Obama doesn’t fit the Bible’s descriptions of the evil end-time ruler. He isn’t from the European Union. The prophet Daniel revealed that the Antichrist will lead a 10-nation military alliance in a reunified Roman Empire (the geographical region of the European Union). See Daniel 7:7-8 and Revelation 17:12-13.

But, that doesn’t mean he won’t be an end-time player. If elected president, Obama’s foreign policy plans will work hand-in-hand with the Antichrist’s agendas — to bring peace to the Middle East and create a new global order.

In an article Obama wrote for the July/August 2007 issue of Foreign Affairs magazine, he revealed that his first priority as president — after ending the war in Iraq — will be to bring peace to the Middle East. In the article, titled Renewing American Leadership , Obama said:

“For more than three decades, Israelis, Palestinians, Arab leaders, and the rest of the world have looked to America to lead the effort to build the road to a lasting peace. In recent years, they have all too often looked in vain. … Sustained American leadership for peace and security will require patient effort and the personal commitment of the president of the United States. That is a commitment I will make.”

And Obama said the creation of international law — enforced by the United Nations — is the key to fighting global threats like terrorism and climate change. In response to a questionnaire sent to him by the United Nations Association of the USA, Obama said:

“It [achieving the United States’ goals] means recognizing international law as an asset that serves great and small alike. We cannot renew America’s global leadership so long as our leaders act as though the United Nations is irrelevant or mainly counterproductive and view active diplomacy as a sign of weakness.”

He has many plans to strengthen the United Nations, which he outlines in his replies to the questionnaire. One of his plans is to support the implementation of the U.N.‘s 2006 Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy. Among its far-reaching measures, the U.N. resolution calls for the prevention of “the defamation of religions, religious values, beliefs and cultures.” It lists the work of the Alliance of Civilizations as key in this regard. Read here why the Alliance of Civilizations may become the mechanism the Antichrist uses to wage war against Jews and Christians.

And given Obama’s religious views, it’s likely he will make America a member of the Alliance of Civilizations. Obama-supporter Charles Penny noted the affinity between Obama’s views and those of the AoC here, saying, “The Alliance of Civilizations fits hand-in-glove with Barack Obama’s goals to fundamentally change the approach of American foreign policy.”

No, Obama isn’t the Antichrist, But an Obama presidency will help pave a path for the Antichrist.
