ENGAGE

On Thanksgiving Day 2008, Mark propose to me and I said "yes". We were both visiting his sister Monique and her family down in Jasper, Georgia. He sat me down in front of the fire place with red wine and candy. Then he got down one knee and said "will you marry me?" I said, "yes, yes ,yes"

What We Must Do To Survive Revelations

Since, we are living in the times of Revelations, there is very little we can depend on. We can't depend on government to rescue us or bail us out. During these times government agencies will be so overwhelmed or so dysfunctional that we will be with out even the basics services. The only people we can depend on are our family, friends and neighbors.
We must put aside our differences and work together if we want to survive Revelation. We must put aside our differences in Religion. All religion is good because all religions believe in a God. I'm in the opinion that praying 5 times a day and giving away all your worldly positions are only for monks & nuns. Individuals will have enough problems feeding and clothing themselves and their love one; let along others. The average person won't have time to spend all day in Church, Temple or Mosque. There will be too much to do. Everything will be local meaning that there will be no such thing as a global economy. It will be as though the whole world was send back 100 years. There will be no super markets, large department stores, or chain stores of any kind. Gas will either be so expensive that the average person can't afford it or non existence. This shortage was caused by serve weather & wars. The summers will get hotter and the winters will get colder. Areas where we now have hot tempters like Nevada (Les Vegas) and the American Southwest will have triple digit tempters for longer periods of time. The middle of the country will experience another Dust Bowl but this one will last longer and cover a larger area then the one that happen in the 1930's. The South and Southeast of the U.S. will be battered by Hurricanes. Where will all these people go? To the Northwest, Northeast or North, I don't think so (although many will try). The North will have there own problems to deal with. Starting with bitter cold winters, the high price of heat is going to make many people sick and many of the old and young will not survive the freezing winter. What about farther North or South? Canada is going to be even colder then the Northeastern U.S. South America is going to be under the control of drug Lords and there will be even more chaos in South American then in the U.S. or Canada. Civilization as we know it will start to unravel! Who will feed the people? We must once again learn to feed ourselves! We won't have the convince of getting into our car and going to the supermarket once a week and stocking up on grocery's and candy. We will be depending on each other for our food, clothing and security. In the summer months, we can plan a garden and when harvest time comes; we must share with our neighbors! A bushel of Tomatoes in exchange for a bag of Potatoes. This is what Revelations 6:5-6[1] ”…And lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say; a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny, and see thou hurt not the oil and wine…” means. Our society is going to depend less and less on a currency economy and more on a barter economy. Instead of spending the night clubbing, drinking and sinning in the City, we are going to have to spend out night fishing for food if we want to survive Revelations. We have to learn to share with thy neighbor. If we catch 4 fish and can only eat 2, then we should give not sell the 2 extra fish to our neighbor. There is going to be enough fish in the seas and oceans for all those who fish because just as Jesus feed the thousand of people. God is going to stock the seas and oceans with enough fish for all those who are hunger. Welfare, Medic-care, Medic-aid and Social Security are all going to be a thing of the past. The government is going to be bankrupt! The dollar is going to get de-valued. So, if a person has $1,000.00 in the bank before the de-valuing of the dollar, he will only have $10.00 in the bank after devolution. All the greedy, corrupt bankers, stock brokers, billionaires, millionaires and politician are going to be jumping out of the windows again because their house was build on sand and not rock. The sinners will be living the parable Jesus told in Matthew 7:24-27; the meek will be watching them. The meek are going to be the witness to the events that will lead up to the final battle because they will be the ones that will inherit the Earth. Halleluiah! They are the ones who will give testimony to future generations. They are the ones who will document and record the events that change the world. Halleluiah! What about their personal security and safety? This shortage of food and gas will cause riots and people will be fighting with there family and friends. Gangs, Organize Crime and Drug Lords will control the resources that are not already under government control. I think this is what’s meant in Revelations 6:4 “… And there went out another horse that was red; and power was give to him that sat there to take peace from the Earth and that they should kill one another; and there was given unto him a great sword…” It is these groups of people that out of necessary we will look toward to for our security and safety.

Extremist will have control of the Middle East oil and the military will busy securing our boarders in an afforded to keep invaders & looters from other countries out. As a Nation, our attention will be turned in word to try to solve our own problems. We won't have the time, money or resources to interfere with the peoples of other nations. In Revelations 6:2, a different kind of figure is describe from that which is describe in Revelations 6:4 ” …and I saw, and behold a white horse; and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him; and he went forth conquering, and to conquer…” This passage points to one man (or woman) not a group of people. What kind of individual will this be? I believe that he or she will come from a democratic country and will be elected. This is because any King, Dictator or Fascist would divide the country from the very being. It won't be like a Hitler type of character (now lesson before you tell me to go to hell) because Hitler brought the different segments of the population together to unite against him. People realize that in order to stop the devil they must unite. So, blacks and whites worked together. Christens and Jews united. And, Jews and Muslims united. Family members worked together to provide food, shelter and security for each other. It didn't happen over night but Hitler was defeated. The different segments of the population united against him after he took power and were able to divide his house. In Matthew, is says a house divided against its’ self cannot stand. History has tough was that a corrupt King, Dictator or Fascist house will start to crumble as almost soon as it is put up. What country will he or she come from? It would have to be from a country that has a pretty good military academy. This leaves out Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and South America. It will most likely be someone who has an excellent understanding of military tactics and is very poplar with his people like a very evil Eisenhower. The good news is that this kind of person has not showed up here on Earth yet.
When is this going to happen? The Bible says in Matthew 24:36, “but of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father”.
