Here is a link to a great video. Mr. Gerald Celente is the best known trends forecaster in the world and his forecast for this year is massive economic collapse and lawlessness in the US that rivals Mexico City. There will be a taxpayer revolt as people with no hope resist the system and the entire house of cards comes tumbling down. This guy is not a Christian but pulls no punches.

The end is coming, the battle lines are being drawn up, and it is time to get our spiritual houses in order, beginning with ourselves. We are told that the name of the Lord is a strong and mighty tower, the righteous runs in and is safe. We had best discover the full ramifications of exactly what that means.

We need to be honest with ourselves as well, in regards to our physcial preparation. No job, no income, no church to drive to becasue the doors are closed becasue the mortgage was not paid, and of course, we cannot afford gasoline....what exactly will we do? This is not a game but a case where preparation must begin now. Do we trust God? If we have not truly learned how up til this point, then we must let Him trach us, quickly. Does it mean that in trusting, we will not see hardship? No. But no matter how heated the trial we are about to endure, He promised that He is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless before the Father with great glory. That is the God we serve.

My dear friends, whether you have often agreeing or vehemently withstanding my message of finding Christ to be an all-sufficient savior from sin, the fact remains that each of our faiths is about to be tested. Everything that can be shaken, will be shaken.

We are witnessing a storm far off on the horizon gathering strength, and it is indeed a scary thing to observe. None will escape its power or destructiveness. We are told mens hearts will fail them for fear of what the next day is going to hold. This is not the time for bickering about religious things. It is time for a thorough soul searching that leaves no doubt that we have left nothing "on the table" in our efforts to seek his face, to walk pleasing to Him.

There is a popular song...Jeremy Camp, I think, called "Going Thru the Motions". God help us to not have to admit that at the end, that we simply did what was required, the bare minimums, in order to walk our our Christian walks. He must become our single minded priority, we simply cannot afford having our hearts split any longer with various other affections, no matter how nice they sound to our reasoning.

To those who tearfully admit that perhaps they have not sought the face of God like they should, listen. We have a forgiving God,one who longers to cast our sins from us, if we but confess them and turn from them. Let us remember the parable of the man with two sons, and the Father asked both to go work in His fields. The one said yes but never did. The other flat our refused, but in the end, felt badly about His dicision and went to go work as the Father had asked. When Jesus tld this, He then asked, which one did the work of the father, and the disciples replied, the latter one. He answered and said that they had told the truth. Saints, it is not how long you run, it is what direction you are running when the end arrives!

However you believe, well, it is what you believe. Only God can bring us to change if He finds us missing the mark in our beliefs or the way we approach our Christianity. But we must be thoroughly convinced we are walking 100% where God desires us to walk with Him. We must make sure He has full 100% access to every area of our heart, allowing satan not one area to still reside in, and possibly bring deception to our hearts.

The next few years are going to test our mettle like none others, and my prayer is that with the rough times, comes a renewed seeking of His face by all of us, a wake-up call to what life is all about, a return to our first love and the zeal and excitement we found when we first found the Lord Himself.

There will be those who say this is a message of fear, not faith. I want you to know, if you are found in that camp, that I love you regardless, and understand why you might feel that way. It will not change, however, what is coming down the pike at us, and I will take no pleasure in being "right" or in saying "I told you so". My fear is that for many who name the name of the Lord now, when push comes to shove and the grocery stores are empty and lawlessness is all around, what litle faith is left will wilt in the heat of battle. God takes no pleasure in those that draw back, nor do I. My prayers are with all. God bless you and may God be with all of us. It is time, I think, to officially buckle our seatbelts....there is turbulence ahead.

Bruce, I first heard about Mr. Celente from one of the programs of Hal Lindsey ( author of Late Great Planet Earth) early this year. I think what was said would likely come true, but I am hoping it will not, nevertheless I no doubt will prepare for the worst but I will look up too , for our redemption draws near.
