“And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” (Rev. 13:17) One of the main tenants of the World Economic Forum’s statements is “You will own nothing, and be happy.” I do not see how this organization can complete their desired goal in relation to the verse above, those who own nothing, purchase and sell nothing.
This does not mean that their intentions are thereby annulled, they are playing their part well, so to speak, but they are not the power that many presume them to be. “Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.” (Prov. 11:4) Those few thousands who have aligned themselves with this organization are “deceiving, and being deceived,” (2 Tim. 3:13) as is the majority of the world today, in fact, all those who have not been blessed with Spiritual discernment about the days that we live in are in one way or another either deceived or being deceived.
It is the time of conjecture, voiced or otherwise, the time of false prophets, of heathen raging, of the lion roaring, and in the midst of these are a few who are being still and knowing that He is God. (Psalm 46:10)
No wise man moves toward any conflict unless he knows the enemy’s position and intent, “A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.” (Prov. 22:3) This is not fleeing from the battle though, this is not pretending that nothing is going on, or even jumping headlong into something else to attempt to cause diversion ourselves, this is the wise man who sees and hears, tests the spirits, (1 John 4:1) and then does as he is commanded.
Neither those who are attempting this world domination nor those who are protesting against it are spiritually discerning the current days, they are deceived, there is only one who is doing the deceiving, there has always only been one father of lies.
I have often wondered where Jeremiah sat on the day that Nebuchadnezzar’s army finally breached the walls and entered into the city, how many of the invading horde simply ran past him, how many even noticed the one man of God watching his beloved home being destroyed. This is where, I believe, the born-again believers are today, in a sense we are information gatherers, we are looking at the army outside of the gates, and we are the only ones who can see them for what they are.
Our responsibility is to warn of what is going to occur soon, for we know that it cannot be stopped, “But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.” (Acts 5:39) Whether we do this as a group or as an individual, whether or not they listen is immaterial to us, we are to warn, we are to be on the wall, we know the future and we are supposed to tell all that we can all that we know.
There is much conjecture out there right now, everything from nuclear war to alien invasion, we may within ourselves contemplate these many and varied ideas, and may use them as a starting point with those we are speaking to only if we remember one thing, the known truths of the Word of God are what we are to expound upon, not only the sure signs of the Scriptures that we are being shown each day, but the truths of what will happen during the tribulation period to those who may be alive after we are taken out. (1 Thess. 4:17) Our priority though has never changed, not once down through the ages of man, we are to glorify God, we are to lift up the name of Jesus, every conversation, whether it be with the lost or those who know Him as Savior must always lead to the same conclusion, the glory of God.
The traps of Satan are becoming nearly invisible, he has, in a sense, saved the best for last, and there are many who are going to find out that their faith was not real, that they were only chaff. As impossible as it seems, you must be aware at all times of everything around you, always. “For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.” (Mark 13:22) Pray for each other, pray for yourself, pray that God will be glorified through us as we begin our walk through this valley.

On Palm Sunday our bishop started an old age home and took great pride announcing about it and gave the details, asked for donations, also said how children of those elderly can visit them on weekends….
I really wonder what happened of…
1 Timothy 5:4, 8
…., and is worse than an infidel.
“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.” Frustrating at times, isn’t it my friend, this crucified life that we live for the glory of God.
