Remember when everything seemed rosy? The sun shone brightly after a fresh, cleansing rain. Flowers seemed to pop up everywhere. Good food on the table, a chicken in every pot. Football, baseball, golf, parties, booze, drugs, infidelity, adultery, corruption, homosexual activity, abortion on demand. Ahh, the good ole days – God is good -life was good. – (Except for the beginning of this statement, I’m being facetious, of course, but that’s the way it was just a few weeks ago.) Yes, life was sweet.

Many of us were wondering if God was still alive since everyone was doing as they pleased with no outward repercussions. But it’s not as if God was not aware. He (notice how I use the masculine description – just like the Bible does) knew what Hillary and Bill were doing all along. As a matter of fact, He knew what we were all up to as well.

We didn’t know how good we had it while God was letting us get away with murder, and seemingly turning a blind eye to our varied sins and indiscretions. Now here we are all cooped up in our homes quarantined and hoping the Covid19 virus somehow disappears.

In one fell swoop, the party was over. No more football idols to worship, no more golf to while the time away, no more movies, no more distractions from things that ‘really matter,’ no more anything. Now it’s life in the raw. Now it’s time for reflection, hand-wringing despair and prayer. The Covid 19 virus has us on our collective knees.

The way things are going, what with this virulent virus wreaking havoc throughout the world, we have much to be concerned about.

Along with that, there are swarms of locusts ravaging crops and vegetation throughout East Africa, and parts of the Middle East. Soon those people will be hurting for food, and a loaf of bread will cost twenty-five dollars and be a scarce as toilet paper.

Recently, in the USA, there were over 600 new earthquakes across the western states in one month’s time. On top of that, a strong earthquake has hit Idaho, with a magnitude 6.5 quake striking near the city of Boise in the Salmon-Challis National Forest. This is the first earthquake above magnitude 5 to hit anywhere in the region for over 50 years, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) said.

Times of joy and plans about what goodies the future holds are on hold for now, and it could be that we have entered the time of sorrows in earnest.

Granted, there are many who see these calamities as just a coincidence or manmade folly; I would say to them, “Isn’t it funny that all these things are happening incrementally as if all is planned this way to get people’s attention? He is instead giving us a chance to repent because of His goodness. Furthermore, He realizes that Satan has much to do with all the evil in the world and really wants to cut us some slack.

As new problems arise worldwide, we can’t help drawing a correlation between Old Testament plagues and the goings-on today. Pestilence, epidemics, storms, drought, tornadoes, floods and earthquakes are raging across the planet, and there is only one who can save us – Christ Jesus of the New Testament – our co-creator.

If these calamities are coincidental like some people think or hope – then there may be manmade answers that will buy us some more time on the planet to do what we wish.

But if you know your Bible – as you should – this was all bound was to happen sooner or later. Jesus is keeping his word – He cannot lie. Yes, the party could be over, and we could be entering the time of sorrows like Jesus said in Matthew 24:4-8.

If ever there was a time to reflect on the future, seek God’s face, repent and to prepare – it is now.

Books

My latest book was bought at the public library sale recently. With nothing to read besides the Bible, I bought this book for fifty cents. The title is The Miraculous Fever Tree by Fiammetta Rocco who was raised in Kenya. Her Grandfather, father and she herself all suffered with Malaria.

I bought this book about a month before the Covid19 virus began at the end of the year. I had lost interest in it and set it aside until I learned that the Food and Drug Administration approved an emergency authorization of the malaria drug (combined with azithromycin) for experimental treatments for patients hospitalized with COVID-19 or for use in clinical trials.

I began reading the book again and found it to be very informative. Quinine is indeed a miracle medicine from the Cinchona tree that is found in the highlands of Peru.

Since its discovery, quinine has been synthesized into Hydroxychloroquine. (Note: It will be used only under doctor’s supervision. Side effects can be serious if not used properly. And do not try over the counter chloroquine phosphate for cleaning fish tanks. It’s not the same thing and can kill you.)

The prologue of this wonderful book reads,

Quinine:

The Jesuits discovered it, the Protestants feared it, the British vied with the Dutch for it, and the Nazis seized it. Because of quinine, medicine, warfare and exploration were changed forever.

SCREENPLAY

My screenplay is going quite well, and scripture verses are finding their way into it without any effort on my part as God shows me what He wants people to know.

The stimulus package was finally voted on, and we may be able to surmount the Covid19 fiasco. I say fiasco because, although it is a deadly flu, we’ve had others just as deadly and managed to survive.

In fact, President Obama let H1N1 runs its course for six months before declaring a national emergency. By that time, millions of people in the US had been infected, at least 20,000 had been hospitalized, and over 1,000 had died while we prayed the prayer of 2^nd Chronicles 7:14; but that’s because God wasn’t in any hurry to give us our just desserts yet, and He let Obama have the victory in subverting us while we gave him license.

On top of that, more unborn infants are sacrificed on the altar of Moloch every day than people dying from that or any other influenza daily.

This man took to the floor twice as a Junior Senator to advocate for abortions on demand. The two times were the only times he took to the floor.

While people were only mouthing the words from Colossians… our country was practicing Islam worship, infanticide, and Satan worship with the blessings of our once great institutions and churches during his tenure.

After those times and until recently, we Christians were still praying, “If my people will humble themselves and pray, then I will hear from heaven and heal their land,” but halfhearted prayers don’t work without earnest conviction and action.

After 9-11 and a time of mourning and reflection, we went back to life as usual. Abortion mills were cranked up, and we all but forgot our promises to God.

Even so, maybe – even with his hardheaded idiosyncrasies – President Trump was the answer to those prayers, and he began dismantling all the craziness that Obama had instituted to our ruin. Today, he is still battling the residual harm and subversive holdovers still in government – placed there by the previous president.

If this is true, then we could be looking at a short respite from totalitarianism, a time for us to get our act together – and quickly – before things like life-threatening epidemics continue to spiral out of control, during which we can expect there to be more and more violence. Some of this violence will be due to the deep frustrations and anxiety people around the globe will begin to feel as they lose jobs, housing and sustenance.

Many will continue to live under a rock and try to go on with life as usual, but it just won’t work. The police and, eventually, the military may have to intervene if things get any worse.

After a time, “Cabin fever” will take hold, and marauders will begin robbing things that they feel are necessary. People are already lining up in droves to buy guns. Anarchy and random killings will ensue.

If you stop to think about it for a moment, this catastrophe could usher in a new monetary system, one- world religion and the New World Order.

I know this news isn’t very encouraging, but we must face the fact that all the things that are happening today were prophesied many years ago in the holy Bible, and you can check it out for yourselves.

Today, 3/26/2020, the news headlines read, “The United States leads the countries of the world with Covid19, and why shouldn’t it, it being the number one nation of abortions, in distribution of pornography and promoter of homosexuality, murder and political corruption.

With people fighting for food because of shortages and high prices and no work to be had, we can expect civil disobedience and an imposed police state with the military eventually stepping in. That could lead to the UN stepping in as well, and they – just happy to be here – will rape and pillage as well, which would lead to total chaos and anarchy.

The only people who will be able to endure such pressure are Christians; and the closer they are to God, the more internal peace they will have. Many others will lose all reason as Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders are doing. The hubris of these people is beyond understanding.

My friend, the best that you can do is pray for yourself, family and friends and draw closer to God.

We really can’t ask God to help us without repentance on our part; in fact, He demands it.

NOTE:

Many of you don’t know I wrote a screenplay (movie) several years ago that became a blockbuster. It was stolen (plagiarized). Thinking I would never pass around a screenplay for possible production again, I have been waiting to be able to produce and direct my own material; but that requires money I don’t have – namely 3 mil. minimum for a theatrical release.

Right now, I am writing the most timely, informative and evangelical screenplay (movie) I ever have. It is based on the very things we are experiencing today, and I’m writing in all the spiritual implications surrounding our present situation as well. It will be heavy-hitting with nothing held back. Repentance and Salvation will be at the core of the movie with Bible verses scattered throughout.

Books:

My latest reading was from the book Profiles in Corruption by Peter Schweizer, and although I knew all the corruption that has and continues to take place in high office, this man laid it all out with names, dates and places. It was staggering the lengths these people will go through to take advantage of us, the Taxpayers.

Worse still, is the way they are handling the Covid19 so-called stimulus package. It’s as if they were doing us a favor in giving our tax money back to us while they slip in a clause to give themselves raises! The hubris of these people is beyond understanding.
