Joseph Farah, the Christian founder of World Net Daily, has an article today encouraging people to take a stand and vote None of the Above in the presidential election.

I'm not sure that's a stand, but perhaps a non-stand. But I can't judge his motives. It's just like when Dr. James Dobson said this might be the first election he may have to sit out, I didn't really agree, but knowing his heart, I couldn't call him out as wrong. It seems now he may go ahead and vote for McCain because not doing so could give a vote for the alternative and that is unthinkable! But Joseph Farah says both options are unthinkable. I tended to agree for awhile. Then one day I thought about prioritizing what were truly the most important issues facing us and decided they were life first, the homosexual agenda second, and our borders and sovereignty third. Well, as the guy said in a song, two out of three ain't bad. Well, it still feels bad, but perhaps it shouldn't be. Those may be the only two issues McCain has going for him, but they are the most important. And the fact that there's no guarantee who he'll appoint for the Supreme Court. NO guarantee is a GOOD thing?? I'm not one of these naive enough to think he will give us conservative constitutionalist judges. Why would someone with liberal views choose conservative judges, no matter what he says!! BUT it's a guarantee you will get an evil Ruth Bader Ginsburg if you vote for Obama; at least we have a chance with McCain. But McCain's a wimp; he doesn't really take a strong stand on anything. Although they try to tell us he is solidly pro-life, he can make exceptions for junk science! :-( Although he says he won't support homosexual marriage, he won't support a federal marriage amendment, so it will happen, and plus, there's his stunt on the Ellen Degeneres Show, so he still panders to the left. So there you have it, I believe in voting for the lesser of two evils, but that means we still get evil. We lost the election when John McCain became our candidate! It will be bad whoever becomes our President, so I can't judge these people who don't want to vote for bad McCain. I WOULD however judge anyone who voted for Obama!! We are told to use a righteous judgment on issues like that, and when he so blatantly tramples God's laws, we gotta choose God over Obama!! And I still feel like we have to do whatever we can to keep Obama out of office. So many things are at stake now, I don't think we will ever recover from an Obama presidency. Think of how long and hard we have fought Clinton's veto of the partial birth abortion ban and it's STILL being fought!! And the bad unconstitutional ruling of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton can't be reversed after 35 years!! No, there's far too much at stake now that will take us completely and irreversibly over the edge. But God says He puts into power who He wants, and we definitely deserve whoever we get. It seems to be a matter of whether we race into destruction or take it a bit slower! And since God says He will shorten the end times for His elect's sake, I'm afraid we are doomed for Obama! :-(

Where is the US in End Time Prophecy?
I had been hopeful and prayerful we didn't have to go the route of the world and the one-world order. After all, the anti-Christ does appear to have opposition in the Bible. Couldn't the United States, that Christian nation, founded on God's moral laws, oppose the anti-Christ and not be a part of the one-world system and the mark of the beast? It's the main reason why I wanted to work with organizations like Concerned Women for America and be a Christian political activist and try to shine light on bad laws, to bring us back to our foundation. But it has never felt more like fingers in the dike, barely holding back a flood of destruction, than it does right now. Especially if we have an Obama presidency! Oh, McCain's not a lot better when you consider his UN views and open borders and shame-on-us-we-torture-prisoners mentality, but at least he doesn't stand for the pure evil that Obama does. This land is full of the blood of the most innocent sacrificed to idols of selfishness and convenience so that people can engage in lustful behaviors with no consequences, no "punishment with a baby" as Obama puts it. This guy not only believes in killing that innocent baby right up until the moment of birth, but if a baby is fully born because of a failed abortion attempt, he believes that baby should be left on a shelf to die! How do you get more evil than that? He claims to be a Christian, but he twists the words of the Sermon on the Mount to claim they advocate homosexuality???? Actually, he didn't actually use scripture to advocate it. He just created the illusion that it was there by referring people to the Sermon on the Mount if they had any problems with it. And people who don't read their Bibles and don't know scripture are in awe because Obama is a Christian who can make them feel better about their sinful choices! Well, what scripture does say is that we are to use the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah as an example to those who AFTERWARD live ungodly! Live ungodly how? Well, I would venture to guess as the Sodomites did!! But this country boldly presses onward with its "enlightened" tolerant views and wants to elevate homosexual behavior, what God called an abomination, to the status of God-ordained marriage! This country is bringing destruction on itself and doesn't see it.
Recently, I came across these verses in Revelation 18:9-11:
And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
Since there is no Babylon now, we have to assume this is a symbolic name for a place in existence now. For the first time, I saw the possibility of the US in that prophetic statement. What place on earth would cause all the world leaders to mourn at her demise? I have never given that a lot of thought. But it doesn't seem there would be too many. A few scriptures later in Rev. 18, it speaks of what a rich city she was and of the merchants who were made rich by her. Her own merchants were the great men on earth but by her sorceries all the nations were deceived. ALL the nations were deceived? What place has that much influence? I'm not sure I know the answer, but it certainly gives me pause for serious thought. The prophetic scriptures speak of a city, Babylon, but as Babylon may be symbolic, I wonder if "city" is, too. What about the home of the U.N., the place that Mayor Bloomberg called the "capital of the free world"? It makes me uneasy, especially knowing the audacity this country has in trouncing all over God's moral laws. "How much she has glorified herself...." says Rev. 18:7. She is so wicked and she doesn't even see it. *sigh*

A Most Sobering Email
I received the following email today from Irvin Baxter's Endtime Ministries:
Wow! I can't deny it; I do believe we are living in the end times, but these are some rather sobering facts. But the MOST sobering fact is not mentioned here. In Jesus's own words, He said in Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." FEW will find the way to eternal life! FEW, not many! These people who believe we have to open our hearts and minds and broaden our way of thinking to encompass all religions and all paths to God (which is an oxymoron; there's only ONE way) can't see they are advocating the wide gate that leads to death! And if we are indeed in the final 7 years, there is not much time for these people to come to truth and repentance and acceptance of Jesus Christ, and only Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior! These become urgent times!
President Bush:
Final 7 years will begin this year!
President Bush has said that he believes the final seven years to the Battle of Armageddon will begin yet this year!
He didn’t say it in exactly those words. What he said was that he believed a final peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians would be concluded before the end of this year.
The Bible says, when this happens, the final seven years to Armageddon and to the Second Coming of Jesus will begin.
2008—Greatest year of prophetic fulfillment in 2,000 years
Major prophetic fulfillments normally happen once in a century. There are presently FOUR MAJOR prophetic fulfillments converging in one year! That’s the reason I believe 2008 will probably be the greatest year of prophetic fulfillment since the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The 4 prophecies that are converging right now?
Two Billion to Die
The Bible specifically prophesies a war for the near future that will kill one-third of mankind—two billion human beings. This war will start from the area of the Euphrates River (the area of Iraq and Iran), and will escalate into the worst war the world has ever known. This will happen at about the same time as the signing of the Middle East peace treaty.
Mark of the Beast
Three and one-half years after the Middle East peace treaty, the mark of the beast will be implemented on earth. All who take the number of the Antichrist (666) will be eternally lost! The UN has asked all nations to implement a number system for all of their citizens by 2010, and almost every nation is doing it right now! In America, it’s called the Real ID.
Antichrist will come from re-born Holy Roman Empire
The Bible prophesies that the Antichrist and the False Prophet will come to power out of a re-born Holy Roman Empire. The Holy Roman Empire is being recreated right now! On December 13, 2007, the 27 member nations of the European Union, the area of the old Holy Roman Empire, signed a constitution. The constitution is presently in the ratification process. The new Holy Roman Empire is expected to be complete by the end of this year or by early next year.
Mideast Peace—A prophecy with a date on it
Most prophecies in the Bible do not have a time attached to their fulfillments. However, the prophecy about the coming Middle East peace treaty does. President Bush believes it will happen yet this year!
Wow! I can't deny it; I do believe we are living in the end times, but these are some rather sobering facts. But the MOST sobering fact is not mentioned here. In Jesus's own words, He said in Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." FEW will find the way to eternal life! FEW, not many!

You Were Born for Such a Time As This!
Can any born-again Christian deny that we are in the end-times? The wars, famines, earthquakes, and other disasters; the Godlessness in the last days, the falling away from the faith, and the false prophets and anti-Christs; the gospel preached around the world, the coming one-world government, technology for the mark of the beast, and Jews coming to Christ in record numbers; the increased persecution and tribulations of Christians. Well, consider the fact that our Father knew us and called us before we were born and determined when and where we would be born. Then were we not all who are living now, born for such a time as this? Wow! An awesome thought, isn't it?

2 Interesting Quotes in the News This Weekend
Bill Clinton: Americans "are in fact hunkering down in communities of like-mindedness, and it affects our ability to manage difference."
Robert Redford: IF Barack Obama doesn't win November's presidential election in the United States, "you can kiss the Democratic Party goodbye".
Bill Clinton's comments sound a lot like Obama's earlier comments about us clinging to our guns and religion. The news took it as him warning about the country becoming increasingly polarized. I find it interesting that any time Bill Clinton complains about others, it is the exact same thing HE does or has done! When did the real polarization begin? Was it not with the Clintons and their battle with the "vast right-wing conspiracy"?? But I say, yes, indeed, we should be polarizing, as more and more the Democrats stand for evil and everything against the Bible and truth. They call good evil, and evil good. It's good to kill babies and evil to speak against homosexuality. It's good to worship "Mother Earth" and Allah and evil to even speak of Jesus in the public square. It's good to protect the rights of pornographers and child molesters and those on death row. It's evil to protect speech rights of Christians in the public square. You name it, and they're on the wrong side of it!
I have hope that God may be using his servant Robert Redford (sort of like his servant Nebuchadnezzar or his servant the donkey) to speak a prophetic word! I hope Obama doesn't win and I hope it destroys the Democrat Party! THEN we'll have to work on the Republican Party that is quickly losing its conservative basis. Christians must come out of the woodwork to take an unwavering stand against the evil and uphold God's laws upon which this country was founded!

The Insanity of the Global Warming and Environmental Movements
I have long felt the man-made global warming hysteria was based on a lie, but I heard something today I just couldn't believe, something that takes us beyond stupid; it's just insane! The information has actually been out there for a couple of years, but I didn't know it. We are having this debate right now about drilling off our coasts. They are talking about drilling 50 miles off our coasts, but still the environmentalists say NO. But today I find out China and Cuba are drilling 50 miles OFF OUR COASTS, but we can't?? How exactly are we saving our seas from man if everyone else can still use them, only we can't? Just like the insanity of the US perhaps having more reserves than ALL of the Middle East, but we prefer to be dependent on them. WE could be suppliers to the world, perhaps even get out of debt, and be a real sovereign independent nation, but NO, that's exactly the opposite of what the insane environmentalist movement wants. I don't believe that THEY even fully realize what they want or WHY they want it. Oh, they can say because it's a WORLD problem, we have to work with the world, be a part of the world, and quit being the arrogant bully of the world. Seems to me if we just left the U. N. and the world to itself and just took care of ourselves, we couldn't be accused of bullying. But anyway, anyone who knows his Bible and the TRUTH knows that we are not to be of the world, not to be conformed to this world, and especially not to a one-world government! I have become convinced that when these things just don't make sense, it's obvious it's spiritual! People are blinded into thinking they are doing what's good and right and cannot see otherwise. But Bible-believing Christians know the truth even though those wise in their own eyes do not.
More of the insanity that proves it's really not about saving our planet - If Al Gore and the like really believed that the world is going to burn up in 10 years, would he continue to fly private jets and burn 20 times more energy in his home than the average Americans do? And don't give me the "carbon credits" garbage. If this really were a crisis, would waving money at the jet give us more time? How about the insanity of burning our food for fuel? Once again don't give me the garbage about it being a different kind of corn or the part we don't eat or whatever else they say. Even IF that were completely true, and I'm not at all convinced it is, it's still a fact that if farmers are using their fields to grow more corn for ethanol, then they aren't growing food and what will that do to our food supply? Then they are making us use light bulbs that will save the environment because they last longer and use less energy, BUT they have dangerous mercury in them and just where do environmentalists think those old broken light bulbs will go, but to landfills polluting our environment. If it's really our beautiful pristine lands that the environmentalists are concerned with, then why aren't they screaming about what illegal aliens are doing to our beautiful deserts in the Southwest? Maybe nothing because keeping open borders plays into the one-world agenda. The insanity of the movement's actions proves it must be based on lies. This is about something much bigger!! And Christians need to wake up to what is happening! There doesn't appear to be much time left when you consider how quickly events are unfolding.
