:mdrmdr: Well ...he was a KGB spy .... so I reckon part of the requirement was intense Judo training! B-) Hey ... I heard through the grapevine he is a multi-talented James Bond. He can get out of any calamity really quickly ... Has awesome hunter skills ... And his homemade tea he serves ... is one of a kind ... its to die for ... God is still on the throne to orchestrate His glorious will! Though we aren't privy to what the Lord is basing his timing of the Rapture on, we can be certain His timing will be glorious! FYI, I'm 5 foot and six inches, and weigh 130 lbs. Does that mean I'm a small dude?! Sorry no Napoleonic complex here! TR Not at all T.R. you can discreetly add height with elevator shoes from Paris and nobody will ever know you are short stature. Even Napoleon would be proudly endorsing these! Here is Robert DeNiro wearing his elevator shoes Or how about these elegant ones for going out to eat ... there is even a special compartment to store your left over sushi fish to take home! Or ... if you love bike pedaling, there is always the original old faithful version ... Thanks but I'm afraid of heights. Hope I can bring my training wheels in the Rapture! TR After Saudi oil facilities was attacked, Trump may point finger at Iran. If Trump does order airstrike on Iran, Iran shall retaliate by ordering their proxies Hezbollah, Hamas, and 100,000 Shiite militants to attack Israel and the nearby US bases. This shall provoke the three shepherds war. God cuts them off in one month. Then bang, booms, God calls us home. But I doubt if Trump will go to war with Iran because of Saudi oil facilities. The consequence is too high for both sides to bear. 2020 election is coming. Trump doesn't want to see any soldiers casualty. But I won't rule out a massive airstrike on Houthi rebels. Are you saying we are 2/3 through the book of Revelation? If so, please back that up with scripture. At least 1/4 of the population would have been wiped out if that was the case - to date that would be almost 2 Billion people (that'd be a wake up sign)... I am hoping you are just referring to John talking about the 7 churches, but I would like clarification of what you mean by "2/3 of the way, through Revelation's narrative." 2ndcoming, Very good point about the 2020 election determining Trump's response. I am also very curious about how this attack is going to be handled. I am skeptical about it. If it was the Houthi rebels, where was the Saudi army/ air defense system to stop the missiles? If it was Iran proxy-ing (I know, not a word) in an attack, why would they bother Saudi Arabia when they constantly mention Israel and the US as their targets... something doesn't add up, but they are very good chess players so maybe they are 4 moves ahead of my brain... hmmm... I am praying that no US bases are attacked in the M.E. - my brother is deployed there. We pray for his safety every night. Holding my breath watching these things going on... Heather, On the Harpazo board this was Savedat33 opinion on the attack ... If you haven’t seen the news there was a major ‘attack’ on a major Saudi oil plant. The US is accusing Iran of it. I’m of the belief it was a false flag by the Saudi’s with America’s help to drive up oil prices from $45/barrel to they are estimating $100/barrel. Why do I say this? Saudi Arabia is bleeding money with how low oil prices are. If oil prices go up, the countries buying Iranian crude will probably stop because of cost. I’m not saying Iran is innocent but I doubt it was Iranian rebels behind the attack which was carried out with about a dozen drones (Iranian rebels don’t have a dozen drones and the tech capability to coordinate an attack like the one seen with said drones). Anyhow, this event did more to send us closer to Ezekiel 38 than any number of “attacks” against Syria did. -Fair Use- ————————— DUBAI (Reuters) - A Saudi-led coalition battling Yemen’s Houthi group said it was investigating drone attacks against Saudi oil plants on Saturday that were claimed by the Houthis, and would confront “terrorist” threats to global energy security. “Investigations are ongoing to determine the parties responsible for planning and executing these terrorist attacks,” coalition spokesman Colonel Turki al-Malki said in an English-language statement. He said the Western-backed, Sunni Muslim military alliance would take the necessary measures to “safeguard national assets, international energy security and ensure stability of world economy”. ••• - Fair Use - Oil is certainly key to our modern way of life. It is the lifeblood of all industrialized nations of the world. Oil is also the greatest single producer and reliable source of wealth. The adage of following the money still holds true. Indeed maintaining and improving of personal lifestyles is an uppermost directive which drives all of mankind. When this is threatened the threat becomes real and personal. Wherever oil, money markets, and availability of goods is threatened fear and chaos ensure! This is why the mark of the beast is so powerful, as it threatens to shut down all commerce on an individual level. The concerns of globalists is to ensure even more control over the wealth and resources of this planet, as well as a more manageable population base. All this to ensure even greater measure of wielding of power over the many. The point to all of this being is that we have seen that the world at large is willing to tolerate and ignore the many sins of man, except where wealth is involved. TR Yep ... even in the tribulation there will still be the wealthy class who will flee to their high tech luxury underground shelters with all their food prep supplies at their finger tips. But the majority of the population will be the poor class who will be struggling just to survive. I don’t believe there will be a middle class ... they will fall right into the poor category.
