A World On The Brink

After reviewing the daily news, it struck me that this world is just on the brink - on the brink of self-destruction. Of course we know that won't happen yet. But we are approaching that point. At the very end of the Tribulation, the world will actually be in the brink of total destruction - just as Jesus returns - according to Matthew 24.

We seem to be rapidly approaching that era:

10 tipping points which could potentially plunge the world into a horrific economic nightmare

The global economy has become so incredibly unstable at this point that it is not going to take much to plunge the world into a horrific economic nightmare.

The foundations of the world economic system are so decayed and so corrupted that even a stiff breeze could potentially topple the entire structure over.

So what "tipping point" will trigger the next global economic downturn? Nobody knows for sure, but potential tipping points are all around us.

Today, the global economic system is even more vulnerable than it was back in 2008. Virtually none of the systemic problems that contributed to the 2008 collapse have been fixed.


There is much more in this article and without listing each specific "tipping point" here, we see these general comments:

The world is drowning in a mountain of debt, the global financial system is packed to the gills with toxic derivatives, everyone is leveraged to the hilt and the dominoes could start falling at any time.

I am not the only one that is warning that another financial collapse is coming. In fact, a whole lot of people have been warning about the next financial collapse lately.

So what will the tipping point for the next collapse be?


And we look around the world at several other potential precipitating factors:

Japan Admits Total Meltdown of 3 Nuclear Reactors

As the Japan Times reports today, the Japanese Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency has "more than doubled its estimate of the radioactive material ejected into the air in the early days of the Fukushima nuclear crisi

While it is tempting to believe that the worst of the crisis is over, some of the reactors are more radioactive than ever, and nuclear chain reactions may still be occurring.

And it's not just the reactors themselves.

Remember that - when the spent fuel rods stored onsite within the reactor buildings are included - the amount of radioactive fuel at Fukushima dwarfs Chernobyl.


Greece scrambles to avert default

Mr. Barnier defended the eurozone as an entity, saying the current sovereign debt crisis hitting Greece and other nations “is not a crisis of the euro” currency. “It is a crisis of countries that have been poorly governed that are in the eurozone.”


European Central Bank risks being 'wiped out' by bail-outs

The European Central Bank is "looking increasingly vulnerable" and may face "hefty losses" as a result of propping up indebted eurozone countries, a leading think-tank has warned.

The International Monetary Fund's partner in the recent international bail-out missions is itself in danger of becoming a liability, Open Europe has argued.
In a report published on Monday entitled A House Built on Sand?, Open Europe has calculated that the ECB has a total exposure of about €444bn (£397bn) to "struggling eurozone economies".


Doctors Use Untested Medicine: "We Cannot Stand By and Watch Them Die"

There is no effective treatment for E. coli patients who are currently suffering from epileptic seizures, kidney failure or strokes. So far, doctors in Germany have primarily used dialysis in an attempt to remove the bacterial toxins from the body as they seek to treat the widespread outbreak of a particularly deadly version of the E. Coli bacteria.

For several days now, hospitals have been experimenting with a largely untested drug called Eculizumab, which has the brand name Soliris. It remains unclear whether it can help
.

Forensic evidence emerges that European e.coli superbug was bioengineered to produce human fatalities

Even as the veggie blame game is now under way across the EU, where a super resistant strain of e.coli is sickening patients and filling hospitals in Germany, virtually no one is talking about how e.coli could have magically become resistant to eight different classes of antibiotic drugs and then suddenly appeared in the food supply.

This particular e.coli variation is a member of the O104 strain, and O104 strains are almost never (normally) resistant to antibiotics. In order for them to acquire this resistance, they must be repeatedly exposed to antibiotics in order to provide the "mutation pressure" that nudges them toward complete drug immunity.

So if you're curious about the origins of such a strain, you can essentially reverse engineer the genetic code of the e.coli and determine fairly accurately which antibiotics it was exposed to during its development. This step has now been done (see below), and when you look at the genetic decoding of this O104 strain now threatening food consumers across the EU, a fascinating picture emerges of how it must have come into existence.


Iran sends submarines for reconnaissance in Red Sea

Iran has sent submarines to the Red Sea, the semi-official Fars news agency reported on Tuesday, citing an unidentified source, in a move that could anger Israel.

"Iranian military submarines entered the Red Sea waters with the goal of collecting information and identifying other countries' combat vessels," Fars said.

It did not specify the number or type of vessels involved but said they were sailing alongside warships of the Navy's 14th fleet.

State-run Press TV said in May the 14th fleet, comprised of two vessels, the Bandar Abbas warship and Shahid Naqdi destroyer, had been sent to combat piracy in the Gulf of Aden.


Anti-government rebels capture parts of NW Syria, kill 120 security officers

Thousands of paramilitary rebels wielding guns and explosives have seized an area of northwestern Syria between the towns of Homs, Hama and Latakiya. Syrian State TV interrupted its broadcasts for the second time Monday, June 6, to announce that "terrorist gangs" had killed at least 120 troops and security officers, most of them in the embattled town of Jisr al-Shughour.


Syrian newspaper: Naksa Day protests just the start

The events on Israel's Syrian border on "Naksa Day" are just the beginning, according to an article in the Syrian newspaper Tishreen.

According to the article, Israel should be ready for more than 600,000 refugees to march across the border, ostensibly to return to their homes in the Golan. "The Palestinian refugeeswho gathered at the border were part of a mass march of progress for the right of return," the article said.


IDF preparing for Al-Quds Day Riots

The IDF will be on high alert along the borders with Syria and Lebanon, as well as in the West Bank on Tuesday amid concern that Palestinians will launch large protests in conjunction with Al-Quds Day – Jerusalem Day – marking Israel’s capture of the capital in 1967.


Iran Says Its Submarines are in the Red Sea

According to Reuters, Iran announced last August it had expanded its fleet of domestically built 120-ton Ghadir-class submarines to 11. These, it said, would be used to patrol the Gulf and the Sea of Oman.


EU to hold crisis talks on E.coli outbreak

European Union agriculture ministers will today hold emergency talks in Luxembourg on the bacteria crisis that has left 23 dead, as the source of the outbreak remained a mystery.


Child's death from E.coli confirmed in SW Va

A child in SW Virginia has died of an E. coli infection, and another person “in close contact” with the child has been infected as well.

Virginia Department of Health spokesman Robert Parker said Monday afternoon that the E. coli that killed the child and infected a second person has been identified as the strain “0157H7.”


A world on the brink. A world who awaits a savior.

Hello all-e coli first. Very interesting article indeed! as a kid i always wanted to work for the CDC and search for the cause of those mysterious outbreaks. I still have that sleuth mentality and extreme curiosity and enough common sense to put 2 and 2 together. Its been pretty obvious from the get go that this was created by man, of course, with some ideas from satan's little helpers. I do believe it is a ploy to attack the organics movement and force that codex ali on us. The sw va e coli is also in eastern tenn and more people are getting sick. I am suspecting currently that these are more naturally occuring e coli from undercooked meat or possibly run off contamination from a farm. (i am guessing contaminated hamburger) However, weirdly enough there is a HUGE Islamic presence in the tricorner of NC, Va, and TN so I can't totally rule out deliberate contanimation. Its becoming obvious that Germany was a case of deliberate poisoning. Currently there is pretty much a war between the Muslims and all others in that nation.-ally

Scott, I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your dad. But I am very glad to hear that he is with the Lord. PTL!

Do you think that all these Arabs that are trying to cross Israel's borders could very well be the invasion spoken about in Ps. 83? I don't recall that it talks about an army, just people from the various countries that are listed.

hartdawg said...

The tipping point? I believe it's the rapture that will be the tipping point.

James said...

All of this is just scratching the surface of what is yet to come. it can't be very much longer.

Caver said...

Scott, the article on the man made e-coli complete with extra genes spliced in is hair raising. Just another extension of what we've discussed before.

Interesting that the Club of Rome's vision of the 10 trading regions in the world AND its vision of the maximum world population seems to be in play. So many stories about strange and weird resistant diseases and food plagues developing right in step with the world financial crisis. And all that right in step with so much political turmoil.....and all revolving around little old Israel.

Wheeeee Dogggie!

The dark side is having a hay day....but we read The Book. We Win....and win big. God is still on the throne.

Scott-
I'd like to add my condolences to those of others regarding your dad's passing. I'm impressed that you haven't skipped a beat with this blog which tells me how at peace you are with your dad's passing. He truly is in a better place.

I know that these are very familiar passages, but feel that the Lord wanted me to share them with you and with whomever else has recently lost a loved one in Christ, or like Hardawg, has someone dear to them who is getting ready to pass:

PS 116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

I Thes 4:16-18 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage each other with these words.

Along the topic of so much prophetically happening recently, I have been wondering if the declaration of a Palestinian state through the U.N. or otherwise this Sept., or later (earlier?) will be that which triggers God's hot anger? Since the Lord gathers the nations for battle at Armageddon because they "parted his land and scattered his people", what would/will His reaction be to this? I guess time will tell. The rapture is seemingly more imminent than ever.

(Numbers 6:24-26)
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.

I had a feeling it would come to this......There are WAY too many

But I DO KNOW they better get back

I believe the EU is being cursed
due to their INCESSANT demands

Get ready for a big STOCK CRASH.

Scott,

Thank you so much for continuing with your blog throughout this time period. I would also like to add my condolences on the passing of your father. It must be so reassuring knowing he was saved and you'll be together again. :)

I came across a thread on a Christian message board that had links to these video's, and I've been listening to them a lot and singing along, as the personal attacks are coming hot and heavy in my life now. (The attacks don't have the effect the enemy wants, though. I tend to go running TO the Lord in times of trouble!)

Hi Ally~

I couldn't remember if it was you, Alice or Paula that lives in MO.? I apologize that I can't remember who the two of you were. I just wondered if everything is OK from this morning's quake?

James...I am impressed :) That was a nice overview. You are tracking things nicely.

I hope everyone has a great evening. Ellis..I will say some extra prayers for you. Knowing my luck he will target me. (ha ha). Well if he is doing that I guess he is leaving someone else alone.

Alice said...

Hi GG! Yes, I'm from downstate (as we like to say) Illinois, very close to St. Louis, MO. But someone else here is in St. Louis... I should remember... Paula?

I heard about the earthquake last night, but I was sound asleep at the time and didn't feel a thing. :)

also, Scott, John talked about
the beast with the feet of a bear.
WHY IS IT that when I looked up
what a bear's feet looked like,
it looks almost EXACTLY like the
UFM flag ??

do a search on Google for the
image of a bears feet and compare
to their flag at UFM ok ??

Why is that ??

I think you know the answer.

I mean, how could Daniel have known
about the four wings of a bird

Just add up the evidence.

U can see where I am going with this.

Paula said...

Hey Alice, I'm in OH. :-)

And while I'm here, I just read an article about digital currency called (Bitcoin. Meanwhile, "cloud computing" is about to go on steroids, which I've long believed is the next step toward removing all computers and data out of our control and leaving us with iPads. (Not the worst thing in the world, but you have to trust the Cloud Masters.) It all makes sense from a human standpoint, but it all depends on trusting some intangible entity. All of this is very one-worldly.

Bring it! Beam us up, Jesus!

Dylan said...

Iran will have a nuclear warhead within two months, right? That's September. So could Iran use the nuclear warhead as a threat to get a Palestine based on the pre-1967 borders?

Dylan said...

Oops I mean august (silly me) but still, could they use it to get the Palestine they want?

Oh, I second that! :)

Scott said...

Its great to be back on here, and thanks so so so much for all of the kind words. The funeral was today and the pastor actually used John 14:1-3 (without my asking!). It was a wonderful service. I have had my 'moments' over this, but when I am able to focus on my Dad (and not myself or my family) - its abundant joy. In fact, my tears today were really tears of joy when the pastor cited the various scriptures about heaven and being with the Lord.

My dad loved this site and he loved reading it every day. he would have insisted that I keep this up and would have been tremendously disappointed if I were to stop it this week, so in a way, its a tribute to him.

Thanks again for your kind thoughts and prayers. I can't wait to see him again. Thank God for giving us the gift of salvation and the hope that we all have...We know that our life here on this earth is just a brief moment as compared to eternity in paradise.

Now, on to the comments above :)

Scott said...

Responding:

James - is that ALL you have? (just kidding :) - thanks for that overall perspective, which is very important from time to time.

Ally, keep us updated if there are more e.coli stories from those parts (BTW, I used to live in that area)

WV - sadly, I do believe man is that evil. And as you say, "take me home"...Indeed.

Hart, I go back and forth on the tipping point. Until the various "tipping points" that have formed over the last 1-2 years, I used to believe that the rapture would be that "ignition" of subsequent events, and it still may be - but it seems that there are so many possible tipping points now.

Tas - thanks...I believe what we are seeing now, on the borders is just a preliminary move - and it kind of like a "prep" of what is to come. As far as Psalm 83, I see this as part of the forming coalitions and an ongoing process leading into the actual battles

Caver - (besides the point that you always give me a laugh) - I am watching to see what Jane Burgermeister comes up with...she is usually pretty good about getting to the bottom of these things, bt usually assembles her facts, and gets all of her "ducks in a row" before publishing her commentary. She has been quiet so far, but I am expecting to see her weigh in soon. That should be interesting. She is an investigative reporter and she'll be all over this as soon as the facts get assembled.

Susan - thanks SO much for those scriptures - especially the Psalm 116 - wow, I love that. Very nice of you to post that. You could be right about Sept. God will not be happy with the outcome of this, or the effort by these countries...

More...

Scott said...

Ellis - I'm going to check out those videos as soon as I am done here (I'm also working on some interesting Bilderberg stuff, and of course, my old 'friend' Soros :)

As far as spiritual attacks, as some folks say, if satan is leaving you alone, then you probably aren't doing much for the Kingdom - so take some comfort in that - and I love that you have the strength to take it directly to the Lord - but expect more attacks. I have said this before but every time I 'preach' prophecy to a group or a church, or do a bible study, the attacks come fast and furious...we have come to expect this.

Stephen - thats very interesting...I want to brush up on those scriptures - do you have a link or a pic of that flag you are discussing?

Dylan, NICE pick-up...I hadn't correlated the Sept date and Iran's nukes...And to make the connection to a forceful means of making Israel concede...Now that IS food for thought....Hmmmm....That is worth pondering. Very interesting.

Paula - Digital currency? OK, I need to look at that as well - I hadn't heard about that. Scary. Beam me up - yes indeed.

Thanks again everybody - God Bless.

Now I need to check out some of these links!

Scott-wow, I am glad you like Jane Burgermeister. I dont really follow her but for a girl she sure has a set of brass you know whats! She suing Big Pharma, the WHO, Baxter Pharm, Obama etc over the purposeful contamination of the swine flu vaccine with the Spanish Flu. Im sure the NWO dudes were really mad their entire plan to wipe out millions and usher in marshall law was foiled by a minimum wage lackey and a bunch of ferrets in the czech republic-ally

In the spirit of sharing links, I wanted to share this with you. It's regarding the Nibiru and Elenin Dwarf Star Warning for 9-26-11. My friend shared this with me about a month ago.
