From Amir Tsarfati: Seizure of two oil tankers in the Persian Gulf: Iran - Greece In response, Iranian Revolutionary Guards took control of two Greek tankers in the Persian Gulf today. I wonder if the Greeks will get help from the USA on the subject ... Pictured are the two Greek tankers that the Iranians took over. churchgal- i definitely plan to watch that, thanks for the post...sad and scary...if covid etc hasn't done it yet, knowing more of their plans and seeing more and more evil sure will quickly loosen the grip of hope in a world without Christ...Maranatha indeed!! geri9- i'd seen a clip of that about the carbon footprint tracking...we've heard all about this stuff (well, many who aren't on places like this probably still haven't) but to hear it spoken publicly and clearly...wow...we gotta get outta here soon...i thought maybe we should plan a certain time and day to all jump up and ask the Lord to take us before our feet could come back down??!! hee hee...just kidding...i do trust and want His graceful timing...oh, and i love the donkeycar pic!! ...the heat under the pot of water is getting cranked up little by little and we are getting so close to needing a snatching up event...however, His grace is sufficient for whatever trial and tribulations (little "t") we will face if necessary to save more souls prior to the Big T... i made myself go thru some messes in my house and came across a receipt for gas from May 2017...it was $2.199 per gallon...and so much else has changed for the worse since then in the world in general..."But God..." ....He is saving souls!....i'm a big chicken, but have handed out some tracts lately and couldn't believe 2 or 3 being so excited and thankful...i'm hoping they didn't really think it was a real trillion dollar bill...(tract from livingwaters ray comfort)...i think i said- was super nervous- that there is really good news on the back worth more than all the money in the world...they hadn't read it yet and just kept saying thank you...maybe people are just that desperate for a little kindness or in person attention?? anyway, i hope they are excited and thankful to read and accept The Good News! Democratic congressman questions the use of the word 'Latinx' when responding to a Yankees tweet that used the term: In response to the post by the Yankees, Torres wrote, "I represent the South Bronx, home to the Yankees. Never heard anyone locally use the term 'Latinx.' Does a majority of Hispanics actually use the term 'Latinx'? If the answer is 'no', how did 'Latinx' come to be the term to use in government and Corporate America?" . . . "if you are referring to the Hispanic community in general, why not use the term that the majority itself predominantly uses?" he [U.S. Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.)] added. "Every community should have the right to label itself, rather than have a label imposed on them by others." The word "Latinx" is used by some as a gender-neutral version of the words Latino and Latina, but polling indicates that very few Hispanics actually prefer the word "Latinx." A Bendixen & Amandi International survey of registered Hispanic voters living in the U.S. found that just 2% indicated that Latinx best characterized their ethnic background, while 68% picked Hispanic, and 21% picked Latina/Latino. The poll found that 40% were bothered or offended by the term "LatinX" at least to some degree — 20% were significantly offended or bothered by the term. Leaked audio from a top-secret meeting confirms the Chinese military is preparing to invade Taiwan: According to leaked audio from a top-secret meeting of Chinese military officials, China may soon launch an invasion of Taiwan. The Times of India reported that an audio clip revealing dialogue between officials from China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), surfaced on YouTube marking the first time since the formation of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 that a recording of a top-secret meeting of China’s military command has leaked. The Times reported that the video containing the meeting’s conversation, along with English translations of what is being discussed, “appears authentic.” Some of the leaked audio from the top-secret meeting confirmed that the invasion would be a massive operation. The leaked audio confirms that the meeting was held to discuss pre-war preparation and that the meeting was held to discuss orderly transition from peacetime to war and to discuss military mobilization and planning. "It’s Too Dull to be Disinformation…They’re Calling This the Final War”: The first question about this tape was whether it was legit or not. Nyquist said that he believed it was. Nyquist is an expert on China as well. It’s too boring to be disinformation. It’s a 56 minute meeting with high-level communist and military officials in Guangdong. It’s just too dull. But there are these little bits in it. Like the fact that they’re mobilizing. And they’re calling this the final war. [Video at the link.] churchgal- actually i think i'm not going to watch that after reading the comments there and other posts by that channel...i think i need to just do like Phil.4:8 says...the kind of stuff it sounds like those videos talk about scares me - lots of people commenting on there would be/or have been it sounds like diagnosed as having schizophrenia...true brain disorders (parts of the brain's structure & functioning are abnormal like other diseased organs of the body) coupled with, i believe, demonic oppression...i know Satan is "the prince of the power of the air" Ephesians 2:1-2, and technologies (all sorts of things using waves traveling in the air) are used for both good and evil...i don't want to know more details...(i'm just sharing my personal thoughts etc. not saying it's bad for others to watch etc.) i know for me and my family we need to focus on the Lord and His good work in our world in order to stay mentally, emotionally and spiritually healthy...i am learning to hate evil more and more each day we remain (and most of it is out of our control)...but also to trust the power of the one true God Who loves us and has given us His Spirit...greater is He Who is in me than he who is in the world * 1 John 4:4*...i'm coming to the conclusion more and more that we don't have to know and understand everything Satan is up to...yes, know your enemy, but we aren't meant to dwell on all the evil...the best things we can do are to grow our faith by intimacy with our Lord in prayer and studying His Word and let Him reach out to others in word and deed as He leads - let Him shine through us...the world desperately needs us to be ready to give an answer for our hope *1 Peter 3:15 *and i can't keep hopeful and ready if i focus on the hopelessness of this world without Him... gratefulforgrace.....I certainly understand, I have often turned off the TV and gotten off of the computer for a few days for much needed encouragement and rest in the Lord's word. I actually do that more and more lately myself. I posted that video only because I have had such a difficult time with this most recent school shooting and the two before them. Two of the shooters, this one in Texas and the one at Sandy Hook were killed by law enforcement so we will never get to hear if they had a motive or even find out if they were sane. I did see the early interviews with the shooter in Lakeland Fla after that one happened and they haven't shown it since then; that guy was also young, 18 I believe. In the interview, he appeared devastated at what he was told that he had done, sobbing and asking why would he do such a thing? I have wondered for a long time if the govt had capabilities to control the minds of these young men and cause them to do these things. This video explains to me that this could be possible. I don't think we have to fear as the Lord resides in us and gives us discernment about all that we come in contact with. Sometimes I post these things for the future left behind folks if they come across it so they can beware. I know that we will likely never know exactly the way that the people who released covid have poisoned us or what kind of mutant virus that we are dealing with and as a healthcare person this has been difficult for me to come to terms with. I have decided to trust the Lord in all the ways that He leads and not worry about the rest.....sometimes it's difficult but hoping we won't have to worry about it much longer :prayer-hands: Forest Service says it started all of New Mexico's largest wildfire: TAOS, N.M., May 27 (Reuters) - Two blazes that grew into New Mexico's largest-ever wildfire were both started by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the agency said on Friday, prompting the state's governor to demand the federal government take full responsibility for the disaster. Forest Service investigators determined the Calf Canyon Fire was caused by a "burn pile" of branches that the agency thought was out but reignited on April 19, the Santa Fe National Forest said in a statement. That blaze on April 22 merged with the Hermits Peak Fire, which the USFS started with a controlled burn that went out of control on April 6, the agency previously reported. The combined blaze has so far torched over 312,320 acres (126,319 hectares) of mountain forests and valleys, an area approaching the size of greater London, and destroyed hundreds of homes. "The pain and suffering of New Mexicans caused by the actions of the U.S. Forest Service – an agency that is intended to be a steward of our lands – is unfathomable," New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham said in a statement.
