Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!
Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!

Argentina’s Government Collapsing, People Refuse to Work Amid Major Subsidy Cuts

 

Argentina’s Government Collapsing, People Refuse to Work Amid Major Subsidy Cuts

Only 43 percent of adults have a job, as inflation soars above 60 percent

July 27, 2022 Updated: July 28, 2022

Protests have erupted in Buenos Aires over the past 90 days and continue to build inside the capital as residents battle with their center-left government over sizeable amendments to social programs.

Cuts to subsidies in the energy sector based on household income already began in June.

Other subsidies, including the country’s notorious welfare program, are also on the chopping block, triggering thousands of angry residents to take to the streets.

State-sponsored aid for civilians has soared in the past 20 years, leaving 22 million Argentinians dependent on some form of government assistance.

In the first quarter of 2022, the national employment rate was 43 percent, according to government figures.

The country’s state funded programs extend to nearly every aspect of the economy, from wages to utilities, education, and health care.

Argentina already spends an estimated 800 million pesos per day—a sum of more than US$6 million—on state benefit programs.

Concurrently, inflation in the South American nation hit 58 percent in May and soared above 60 percent in July. By comparison, national inflation was just over 14 percent in 2015.

Harry Lorenzo, chief finance officer of Income Based Research, told The Epoch Times the spending habits of Argentina’s government are at the root of the escalating problem.

“The Argentine government has been grappling with a collapsing economy for some time now. The main reason for this is the government’s unsustainable spending, which has been funded in part by generous welfare programs,” Lorenzo explained.

Deeper Into Economic Chaos

Cries for more state money, freedom from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and for President Alberto Fernandez to step down echoed within the angry crowds gathered near the president’s office—Casa Rosada —during the nation’s independence day celebration on July 9.

Since then, scheduled demonstrations have continued, led by professional protest organizers or “piqueteros” demanding the abolition of the proposed subsidy cuts and a wage increase.

“This is madness. What the piqueteros are asking for is madness,” Alvaro Gomez told The Epoch Times.

Gomez has lived and worked in Buenos Aires for more than 15 years and currently is a taxi driver. As the years have passed, he’s watched his country dive deeper into economic chaos.

“I’ve seen five presidents come and go in that time; nothing has improved. Half of our country doesn’t want a job, and the ones that do, don’t want to pay the taxes for the others,” he said.

Argentina’s minister of the economy and close ally of Fernandez, Martin Guzman, resigned from office on July 2 amid complaints that internal conflicts prevented him from doing his job.

Guzman was the driving force behind a critical new IMF deal. He also reportedly clashed with the current vice president and former two-term president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner over the handling of Argentina’s spiraling economic crisis.

Kirchner is a vehement subsidy supporter and has previously denounced Argentina’s dependence on the IMF.

In summary, half of the ruling coalition wants more foreign bailouts as a solution to bankrupted coffers and inflation.

The other half wants to maintain the existing social programs and be independent of foreign aid while raising taxes on an increasingly impoverished population.

Presently, some parts of Argentina have more than 40 percent of its population living below the poverty line.

Low Investor Confidence

Kirchner called the sudden resignation of Guzman “an immense act of political irresponsibility” during a press conference in the province of Santa Cruz.

Fernandez quickly appointed Silvina Batakis on July 3 to fill the gap in the pivotal office.

Wasting no time, Batakis met with IMF managing director Kristalina Georgieva on July 25 to discuss a potential new deal for the country’s outstanding $44 billion debt.

Robert Donnelly, the finance manager at Marketplace Fairness, told The Epoch Times that Argentina’s reliance on foreign bailouts isn’t a solution but more of a short-term economic pressure valve release.

“While this has been somewhat successful, it has not solved the underlying problem,” Donnelly said.

He explained that Fernandez’s administration could do several things to alleviate the country’s dependence on outside loans, like increasing exports and attracting more foreign investment.

Though with the collapse of the peso, high inflation, and no clear strategy for a path forward from the government, outside investor confidence remains very low.

Lorenzo maintains reeling in government spending is paramount. “This would involve scaling back the welfare programs, which have been a major contributor to the country’s debt.”

However, for the 1.2 million members dependent on the social program Empower Work, which is an income subsidy that provides a living wage for an indefinite period of time, working a regular job is out of the question.

“The government expects us to work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for the same amount of money,” an outraged female Buenos Aires resident and piquetero lamented to reporters during a live news broadcast.

When asked where how she’d been earning income for her household, the woman replied, “the government.”

Anger at Having to Work

Another protester, an adult male, also decried the proposed welfare program changes telling local reporters, “Cristina [Kirchner] told us we have to go to work instead of receiving social benefits. Going to work, that’s the policy of a right winger.”

Protesters continue to ask for more subsidy money or for Fernandez to step down from office.

Meanwhile, the embattled head of state called for unity in the economically devastated nation during the 206th anniversary of the country’s independence. In the same speech, Fernandez lashed out at groups who were attacking the government and wanted to “keep all the income.”

Regarding the nation’s deepening economic crisis and resultant instability, Fernandez said, “Unity is always the fruit of the willingness of those involved to consolidate it.

“History teaches us that it’s a value that we must preserve in the most difficult moments.”

THE FIG TREE GENERATION IS NEAR ITS LIMIT!!!

 Fans Of Hal Lindsey And Prophecy

May be an image of 1 person, sky and text that says 'He's Coming Soon'
THE FIG TREE GENERATION IS NEAR ITS LIMIT!!!
JESUS SAID the 'generation' who sees the fig tree put forth leaves (Israel's rebirth as a nation - May 14th,1948) will see ALL the end-times events, including the Tribulation, come to pass. Matt.24:32-34
Scripture defines the upper limit of a generation as 80 years. Psalm 90:10
Seventy-four years ago, against incredible odds, Israel, after 2000 years in exile, was again declared a nation!
Jesus specifically said that THE GENERATION that witnessed this would be the FINAL GENERATION before His return!
Significantly, 73 years of age is now the average global lifespan.
Biblically a generation is 70 - 80 years. Psalm 90:10
When Jesus returns for His people (The Rapture) the worst, most unimaginable time this earth has ever seen will begin. Referred to clearly in scripture as the tribulation period; 21 JUDGEMENTS (YOU WILL NOT WANT TO BE HERE) lasting seven years.
All the signs of the last days are CONVERGING at the same time. Bible Prophecy is happening right before our eyes and like birth pains, the predicted events are happening more frequently and more intensely. Never, in the history throughout the world have so many forces, including economic, scientific, techno-logic, ecologic, cultural, geopolitical, moral, spiritual and religion, converged together to bring this world that's already teetering over the edge into the abyss, to a point of no return. Jesus said, "And when these things BEGIN to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh." Luke 21:28 MARANATHA!

What's REALLY behind today's youth transgender craze?

 

What's REALLY behind today's youth transgender craze?

'Child sexual abuse on a scale never seen, or even imagined, in America'

First of all, the forbidden truth has to be stated clearly and unequivocally: It is impossible for a male to become a female, or for a female to become a male. Period.

Virtually the entire human race recognized this obvious truth from the beginning of human life on earth until around 2013. That’s when the powerful LGBT lobby pressured and intimidated the notoriously weak-kneed American Psychiatric Association into de-pathologizing gender identity disorder in the fifth edition of its “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders” (so-called “DSM-5”), psychiatrists’ official “bible” for diagnosing mental illnesses.

Thus was transgenderism or transsexualism, until then a vexing mental disorder, suddenly declared to be perfectly normal, as virtually the entire “mainstream media” exuberantly reported at the time.

Except it’s not. “The science” regarding gender couldn’t be more clear and incontrovertible: Almost all of the 30-40 trillion cells in an adult male’s body are permanently encoded with XY – that means MALE – chromosomes. So changing one’s first name and pronouns, wearing women’s clothing, growing one’s hair long and taking estrogen – even having one’s private parts surgically mutilated – does not transform a man into a woman. Likewise, though a woman cuts her hair, has her breasts amputated and receives testosterone injections, she does not magically morph into a man.

TRENDING: The left wants to abolish everything, even this column

Nevertheless, America is a free country, and if an adult decides to change his or her name, amputate body parts and claim to be the opposite gender, or a brand-new gender that never existed until a few months ago, he or she is probably not breaking any laws.

However, during the Biden era of rapidly metastasizing madness in every area of life, what once was a realm wherein a relatively few troubled adults made sad and often catastrophically irreversible personal choices to medically “transition” to a different gender, has morphed into a depraved and shockingly widespread campaign to indoctrinate, seduce, groom and flat-out recruit America’s children into the world of transgenderism.

Incredibly, countless LGBT activists, including many public school teachers, have taken to proselytizing this new transgender salvation to America’s children, resulting in untold numbers of school kids being led into lives of not just unending conflict, confusion, suffering and disability, but far too often – as multiple studies prove – suicide.

And yet, according to no fewer than 11 different research studies, 80% of children who are drawn into the “trans” lifestyle would have totally outgrown their youthful gender dysphoria by the time they emerged from adolescence, had they simply been left alone.

So, why are so many public-school teachers and others with access to America’s children intent on pushing them to identify as transgender?

One obvious factor, of course, is that in today’s increasingly godless, immoral and “postmodern” culture, there are simply lots of broken and deeply disturbed adults who are, right now, “teaching” America’s children. This is not speculation; they publicly advertise this reality on social media sites like Tumblr and TikTok, as the Twitter account “Libs of TikTok” amply documents.

Other factors include powerful LGBT nonprofits like the Human Rights Campaign, which raises tens of millions of dollars off promoting and championing the issue. Mega-corporations like Disney have profit motives intertwined with their radical support for the left’s entire “woke” agenda, however deranged. Liberal suburban parents who fear being labeled bigots, homophobes and transphobes more than death itself are easy recruitment prey for attending – with their children in tow – all manner of “pride parades,” “drag-queen story hours,” “kid-friendly” drag shows in gay bars, and other events featuring transgender activists.

Then there’s the leftist elite’s “1984”-ish obsession with compelling normal people to believe absurd things as a means of controlling their minds. As the history of totalitarianism demonstrates, it’s easier for would-be tyrants to rule a once-free people if, having been pressured to embrace absurdities (in “1984” it was “2+2=5”), they are degraded and intimidated into a more broken, conflicted, polarized and confused version of their former selves.

Furthermore – and critically – LGBT issues serve as the “sharp point of the spear” which the left uses to attack America’s foundational Judeo-Christian culture, which it loathes and fears. No other issue, not even abortion, serves so well as a direct attack on Christians and religious Jews as the LGBT agenda, which enthusiastically wars against the Bible’s clear moral standards.

No wonder the Biden administration, totally controlled by the radical left, is so deeply invested in transgender grooming and recruitment of the nation’s youth, with Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra fully supporting taxpayer-funded amputations of healthy body parts of these vulnerable children. Or as Becerra put it so ghoulishly, “We should help those have the life-affirming care that they need.”

But beyond all these factors, there are still deeper, more profound and truly mind-blowing core reasons for this sudden preoccupation, this rabid insistence on grooming America’s children – its most precious resource, the only hope for the nation’s future – to enter the ultra-dark world of transgenderism.

Why, after all, would children with absolutely typical youthful confusion and growing-up pains be deliberately channeled in such an utterly catastrophic direction?

Here’s a hint: Why do you suppose pedophiles are obsessed with sex with pre-pubescent children? There’s absolutely nothing sexually attractive about little children – quite the contrary. But the pleasure derived from sexually violating little children is not so much sexual, as it is the relief and satisfaction derived from corrupting and destroying their innocence. The experience of “putting out the light” of innocence in a child is cathartic, fulfilling and psychically and spiritually relieving to the abuser, who has already lost his or her own innocence.

There is much more, of course, but the question of what is really behind the shocking and frankly evil campaign to recruit beautiful, undefiled but highly impressionable children into “identifying” as transgender is, along with other vital questions, powerfully illuminated in ways not seen or heard in other media – all in the July issue of WND’s critically acclaimed Whistleblower magazine, headlined “WHAT’S REALLY BEHIND THE TRANSGENDER CRAZE?”


As this groundbreaking Whistleblower issue makes clear, today’s epidemic of encouraging and enabling America’s children to “transition” to the opposite sex is not only child abuse – it is child sexual abuse.

The recent case of California teenager Chloe Cole makes this painfully clear: Chloe recently testified to a Florida legislative committee about how, having become convinced she was transgender at age 12 due to the influence of LGBT activists on social media, Chloe started getting injections of testosterone at 14, and at the tender age of 15 underwent a double mastectomy. Immediately, she says, she regretted her decision.

“I really didn’t understand all of the ramifications of any of the medical decisions that I was making,” said Cole at the hearing. “I was unknowingly physically cutting off my true self from my body, irreversibly and painfully.”

In heartbreaking testimony, the teen, now 17, reflected on what having been seduced into “changing genders” means for her life now: “I don’t know if I’ll be able to fully carry a child, and I might be at increased risk for certain cancers, mainly cervical cancer. And because I do not have my breasts – I no longer have breasts – I’m not able to breastfeed whatever future children I have.” After a long pause, Chloe continued: “That realization actually was one of the biggest things that led to me realizing that this was not the path that I should have taken,” adding that “No child should have to experience what I have.”

Although she would like to have children one day, Chloe said she isn’t sure that’s even possible anymore, since her eggs’ viability was compromised by the testosterone injections she received.

“Convincing a 14-year-old girl to get testosterone injections,” said Whistleblower Editor David Kupelian, “and the following year to have her breasts surgically removed – or for that matter, encouraging the castration of teenage boys in an impossible quest to turn them into females – is child sexual abuse. Same with compelling 2- and 3-year-old toddlers to sit at the feet of drag queens – many of whom, it turns out, have criminal records for pedophilia and child porn. This is child sexual abuse on a scale never seen, or even imagined, in the United States of America.”

July’s Whistleblower issue also includes a powerful article by Walt Heyer, perhaps the most influential former transgender, who now labors fulltime to help the massive and growing number of people who regret their transgender “transition” and want to be restored to the person God made them. The issue also features renowned journalist Christopher Rufo on the only way good people can take back America – by what he calls, “Laying siege to the institutions.”

* “Laying siege to the institutions: From Disney to public schools, a strategy for going on offense to reclaim America” by Christopher F. Rufo.

Concludes Kupelian: “Those on the radical left are angry, obsessed – and arguably possessed – and have little regard for the innocence of children. Their abortion messaging has gone from ‘safe, legal and rare’ to ‘we demand the right to terminate our unborn children at any age, for any reason or no reason.’ They indoctrinate America’s kids with toxic doctrines like Marxist ‘critical race theory’ and corrupt them with pornographic books and explicit ‘sex education’ at absurdly immature ages. Yet, exceeding all of this is the left’s insistence on grooming and recruiting innocent young children into the dark transgender world. This goes beyond their usual blindness, callousness and selfishness – and into full-blown madness and evil.”

With such genuine wickedness openly manifesting in “the land of the free,” what can good Americans do about the precarious state of their country? During this time of genuine tribulation and even persecution, how should moral, right-thinking Americans, who work hard, love their country, honor its history and obey its laws – and who don’t pretend there are dozens of new genders and that America is a despicable racist hellhole – now respond? That’s the all-important question answered in “TRIBULATION AND REDEMPTION IN AMERICA.”

It’s all in Whistleblower’s “THE GREAT RESET.”
