Peace and Security, Great Tribulation, Armageddon


Recommended Posts

Most of the people in the world outside the Western world kinda accept that the KoTS is the lesser evil. But some people living like some part of Africa or the middle east find that difference insignificant.

 

There's a quote that goes like this;

"To an African, the two major world powers are like two killers pitching to him on how he'd like to be killed. The East want to cut off his head with a bread knife, The West on the other hand wants to cut his head with a butter knife but they'll first put him on anesthesia and then sing to him about how good of a deal he's got by not getting killed by the other guy" 😂😂😂

but where was the information that we couldn’t have beards. I didn’t know we couldn’t have them until we were told we could now have them

I know brothers and sisters who were told by elders in their congregation that they couldn't partipate in certain aspects of services or privileges if they wore the hair on their face or hair n their head a certain way including beards and natural hair (for black men and women). So it wasn't written, but it was def enforced if you wanted to participate in anything theocratic

Not far off how I think. In regards to Israel and Gaza, that is a tougher problem. Remember the coin Trump had minted in 2017? On the back it had an interesting inscription with "70 years" mentioned. What will he do now? This could get really scary!!

The articles I read say that Trump didn't have this coin minted, it was "The Mikdash Educational Center" in Israel to honor his recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

I believe it originated in the 60s with all the student trouble and the beard was somehow seen as a common feature of those causing trouble. It just seemed safer to be seen as cleaner shaven. Hard to put your finger on it though.

One way to think about it ~  Are tens of thousands rushing the border of Russia to get in?

 

Well, there are supposedly 10,000 North Korean soldiers goimg through Russia to assist them with the war in Ukraine.

 

Perhaps getting a bowl of beef stroganoff is better than the half a cup of rice these soldiers were getting back home.

That is true?

 

They say this is the Trump effect—just 48 hours after his election victory:

 

Appoints the first woman as chief of staff.

 

The Taliban signals a desire to be removed from the list of terrorist organizations.

 

Putin announces that the West is no longer seen as the enemy.

 

Mexico discourages large caravans heading toward the U.S. border.

 

New York halts food vouchers for illegal immigrants.

 

China expresses a desire for peaceful coexistence with the U.S.

 

European Union leaders announce plans to prioritize American gas over Russian supply.

 

Hamas calls for an end to the war.

 

Bitcoin reaches a historic record high.

 

The stock market

hits new record highs.

I think the only reason the KoTS seems less evil than the KoTN is because they are not actively persecuting us like Russia is. But because the United States has been identified as the KoTS, we know they’ve persecuted us in the past and will do it again, according to Revelation 16:13,14.

The Hebrew word cushi or kushi is an affectionate term generally used in the Bible to refer to a dark-skinned person of African descent.

"Assist with the war" .   .    .    When a nation goes outside of its own population to get help, the help are either allies (the  enemy of my enemy is my friend) or mercenaries (paid fighters).

 

Yeah, the N. Koreans sent to "assist" with the war are probably eating better.  Reports say they are also gorging on porn with unrestricted Internet for the first time in their lives.

 

No one to my knowledge, except maybe Steven Seagal, has decided they would rather live in Russia than in the USA.

Meanwhile, people from all over the world are traveling to Mexico with the goal of entering the USA and getting all sorts of goodies.

 

Both KotN and KotS are evil. 

KotN is known for having one President for Life strong man, KGB secret state police, and censorship.

KotS is known for personal rights, hedonism and materialism.

From a worldly perspective, KotS wins the PR war.  Lesser evil.

I think so

all seems accurate to what I have been reading

things can change in a glimpse can’t they?

Eph. 3:20 “Now to the one who can, according to his power that is operating in us, do more than superabundantly beyond all the things we ask or conceive”
