Anti-Christ

After reading all these posts, one thing has become obvious to me, the Anti- Christ will easily come to power. The anxiety level we all feel from all spectrums of the political agenda is amazing. Truly, it will be from God that he will be able to fool the left and the right. Yet, it will truly be only the Christians who will be fooled because after he enters the temple, he will reveal himself to be a liar and an enemy of Christians. We all want peace but it won't come from man. John

- Anti Christian spirit
| Posted On: 03/29/08 03:06:47 PM | | Age 61, MO |
I think you have a misunderstanding of anti Christ. Believers will know from New Testament Scriptures that they are the temple of the Holy Spirit. The Scriptures speak of a beast that is on the rise (ever rising), that will "stand" in the "temple" and proclaim to be Christ. That beast is the anti-Christian spirit that takes over individual temples until a collective anti-Christian spirit permeates almost the entire world. Fortunately, God preserves a remnant from every generation. (See Romans 11:3-5). This could be the last generation, but we dare not give up. George Cancilla

George: Thanks for pointing that out to me. On my part, it's just one of those phrases one tosses around without thinking to denote the end times. Kinda like the words "Rapture" or "Baptism" are tossed around. The words themselves paint mental pictures dependent upon our experiences, yet my mental pictures would be different than a pre-trib adherent or a Catholic. So, anyway, thanks for keeping me straight. John

- THE COMING ECONOMIC COLLAPSE ?

Opec does not set the price of oil. It is set by the open market. You are correct when the price of oil has gone up the stock market goes down. Look at what happened in the 70's when opec shut off the oil to the US. But if you think $100/barrel is high you have not seen anything yet. There will be a shortage of oil in several years. The oil producers will not be able to increase production enough to keep up with the demand. This demand is going up at a alarming rate because China and India are using more and more oil. We have been spoiled by being being only a small % of the population of the earth but we use most of the earth's oil. Now "Chindia" which has a population of 2.5 billion people are building autos and highways at an amazing rate. ( China has over 100 cities of over a million people and they have more skyscrapers than we do, and over half the concrete being poured on this planet is being poured in China) This increase in the number of autos will mean the world will need more oil than it can produce. The price will probably go to over $200/barrel. This has the possibility of bringing our economy to a complete collapse. The people in this nation think that they have a right to most of the oil in the earth. Right now gasoline in about $8.00/gal. in Europe not $3.50. Gas is so CHEAP in the US because our government subsidizes the oil industry by the billions of dollars to keep the price down. Of course we pay for this in taxes. Europe has a right to complain about the US ( and does) for being such oil hogs and making the price so high. They drive cars that get 60 miles per gal. in Europe instead of driving SUV's that get 14 mi/gal. If I could afford a new car I would buy a diesel VW, I told my buddy to but one and he gets 60 miles/gal in his.- We not only have the rising price of oil but the 76 million baby boomers will start to retire very soon. They pay most of the taxes ( because they earn the high wages) and will be collecting SS instead. Put the enormous trade deficit on top of these factors and you have the makings of an economic collapse that could destroy our whole civilization. My hope is not in this nation but all my hope is in the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus has NOT promised to keep this nation but He has promised to keep those who trust in Him and no one and nothing else.

I don't believe Ron Paul had all the answers

I don't believe McCain does either, but I know a real kook when I see one and Hillary and Obama both qualify 100%.
I also do not believe that any politician plans to scrap the Federal Reserve Bank.
It will take a concerted effort by Americans to get the job done. We must vote out any pol who does not get it.
The sad part is we keep settling for the lesser of several evils.
We Americans must take back control of the Government by using our voting power. That means getting people to work together and I see little hope for that. We are so divided over political positions that we can't seem to get the right people elected.
We also elect people who promise the moon and deliver nothing. We can't even get people on board to support a Fair Tax!
I am not sure what it will take but like the Children of Israel, we have strayed from our roots, stopped depending on God and started depending on government. This is a very bad thing.

Of course, the only candidate who had any chance of stopping the federal reserve system was Ron Paul. But, just like all the other media outlets you took one glancing look at a bullet point and decided you wanted the style of the huckster instead of substance. Whatever, you had your chance to promote a government accountable to their people, you guys dropped the ball. Now, I've learned that the huckster's church is teaching Rick Warren's sermons, (source, www.sliceoflaodicea.com) it's funny how much you lambast Rick Warren when Huckabee (and his church) are buddy-buddy with him. Sad.

FEDERAL RESERVE HAS TAKEN OUR FREEDOM

It is only common sense; that if you give someone control of your money, then you give that same person control over your life. Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln both fought against the few wealthy citizens taking control of the money. But Woodrow Wilson gave the freedom of the people away to the bankers when he signed the allowed the Central Reserve to come into being. His later regret changed nothing. Lou

Keep the wealth in the country

A government owned banking system with sovereignty held by individual State banks would put a stop to the predatory lending of private banks. Rather than being against free markets, as one might think it is socialistic, this system would actually enhance free market capitalism; because it would curb monopoly capitalism by giving all participants an equal playing field. Multinational corporations must be broken up. All businesses must be licensed in each State in which they operate. Each State can then prohibit certain companies from obtaining licenses in their State, or revoke existing licenses if foul play is indicated. Organized or collective lobbying, grassroots or otherwise, should be outlawed. At the national level, all trade agreements must be revoked and replaced with high import tariffs. The overall goal of this or any such economic/monetary policy is to keep the wealth of the U.S. internalized. George Cancilla

- THIS truly terrifies me

you said "Organized or collective lobbying, grassroots or otherwise, should be outlawed." you do understand that THIS is exactly what WE are CURRENTLY DOING - LOBBYING AT THE GRASSROOTS - and you want this outlawed? if WE don't stand up for what we believe in and work to have others stand up with us then we have stuff like prayer removed from schools, the ten commandments removed from anywhere, abortion on demand, homosexual teachings in school, homeschooling outlawed, etc. oh wait that's EXACTLY where we're at and to top it off now they want to make teaching and preaching from the bible "hate speech". we ARE grassroots and we ARE lobbying, even if only to other believers, to stand up and vote the way God wants us to vote AND to contact our duly elected congressional representatives on how we want them to represent us or to voice our displeasure at how they vote. no we do NOt want to outlaw grassroots lobbying.

Yes, Christians do need to wake up and we should have rallied behind the only presidential candidate running that has been pointing out these truths about the Federal Reserve and corporate fascism for thirty years. Ron Paul: Christian, pro-life, faithfully married to the same woman for over fifty years. But, instead, evangelicals fell for the socialist Huckabee who would have just continued the same old policies that have brought our nation to the brink of disaster.

- Ron Paul
| Posted On: 03/25/08 11:40:22 AM | | Age 46, IL |
Ron Paul could have gotten traction if he did not turn out to be a kook. As soon as he blamed the US for islamic terrorism instead of blaming the terrorists he showed he was a kook and all rational people could not consider him presidential material no matter if all his other views were dead on.
I liked Ron Paul and agreed with him on many things. But he is a kook and not fit to be president.

- Ron Paul is not a kook
| Posted On: 03/25/08 04:53:42 PM | | Age 65, WI |
I wouldn't be in such a hurry to call Ron Paul a kook. If he is a kook, I'd like more kooks like him around. While he may not have all the right answers I'm not so sure he's that far off on the Islamic hatred of us. Obviouly their religion plays a big part in what's happening, but put yourself in their place. If a foreign government was always sticking their nose in our affairs, how would you feel? George Washington warned us about sticking our nose in foreign affairs. I think George new what he was talking about. We've been sticking our noses in foreign affairs far too long and it contiues today. To spurn Ron Paul for this and call him a kook only shows ignorance of what this man has tried to do to save America over the years. That's being pretty short sighted.
I'd say it's sad that many Christians don't understand what George W. Bush and his policies are doing. Our freedoms are fast vanishing. Wise men like Ron Paul understand this and see it, but I think many Christians are being fooled from their lack of knowledge. No, Ron Paul is not a kook. The uninformed and the gullible and those who believe the propaganda in my estimation, and are the ones who have been led to believe that Ron is a kook.
The neocons now in charge of our government (followers of Strauss and Trotsky) are not opposed to lies or propaganda for what they perceive as the greater good(or to enhance their power). Much like when Mc Carthy was outing the communists, they ridiculed and made fun of Ron Paul. Guess what. Recent finding show that Mc Carthy was right.
Well, the only real threat to the neocon power came from Ron Paul. That's why they want you to think he is a kook. I wonder if the writer I am responding to has been deceived or does he undertand that Ron Paul is a threat to the neocon dynasty? That's the question I have.

He didn't necessary blame the US for Islamic terrorism. He blamed the bad US leaders and their policy makers for being so domineering over the Muslims and their politics. He gave an example about how would we feel if the Chinese came to our country and built 13 bases in our country because they knew how to manage our oil better than we could. That would make every single one of us so mad we would fight back and chase them off our land even if it costs our lives. Get the point?

Better Banking
| Posted On: 03/25/08 08:05:36 AM |
Age 61, MO |
The Federal Reserve Bank (a private corporation) was created out of the Federal Reserve Act in 1913. This Act was an unconstitutional piece of legislation engineered for the purpose of allowing big international banking cartels to manipulate the American economy. It has been a criminal enterprise from its conception, and every Congressman from that time forward has been aware of its illegality. Precious few of those representatives have stepped forward to speak the truth about it. The creation of monies to be used by citizens of a nation should be the responsibility ONLY of the government of that nation: as it was so designated in the Constitution for the U.S., where it was further designated that such monies would be gold or silver. The banking system in the U.S. should be controlled by the federal government with each State bank operating independently to issue money. This system would do away with privately owned banks, which in turn would severely curb capital flight. State banks would be authorized to monetize the production of real goods and services, creating supply and demand at the same time. There is substantial precedent for this approach, stretching as far back as the early American colonies: In the early eighteenth century, the colony of Pennsylvania issued money that was both lent and spent by the local government into the economy, producing an unprecedented period of prosperity. This was done not only without producing price inflation but without taxing the people. The crime of fractional reserve banking would be eliminated; and there would be no credit cards of any kind.
