An
epidemic of Dengue fever has infected approximately 1200 people in
Hodeidah, Yemen, and 30 people have died. Local residents of Hodeidah
are demanding that the Minister of Health be dismissed for his total
disregard of the outbreak and his failure to take measures to contain
the disease. The disease is spread by mosquito bites.
Medical
teams that have been asked to assess the disease outbreak in Hodeidah
are threatening to suspend their activities for lack of payment.
Officials of the Health Ministry fear cases will mount in the poorest
neighborhoods of Hodeidah due to poor sanitation in that district and
malnutrition. The al-Thawra Hospital in Hodeidah registered over 50 new
cases in less than a week, demonstrating about 10 cases per day are
surfacing since last Monday.
There
are so many disease outbreaks throughout the world and within the
animal kingdom, I am weeks behind reporting the incidents. Jesus said
these events would signal His return, "Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places" Matthew 24:7.
Half of Africa is at war, Muslims attacking Christians; the Middle East
is at war - all the surrounding nations are against Israel; Barack
Obama has challenged China with his new adventure in Australia and the
Asian sea; Russia has threatened anyone who tries to stop Iran from
developing nuclear power (actually weapons); Syria has been gunning down
the citizens for protesting their oppressive dictatorial leader; Israel
is "backed against the wall" with Iran's nuclear capabilities and a
preemptive strike against Iran is imminent. This is just the tip of the
iceberg. Can the world be in much more chaos, other than all out
global warfare? Asia, Africa, China and North Korea are experiencing
famine, just to name a few. Major earthquakes are rocking the world on a
weekly basis (average) - unlike anything ever before in recorded
history.
If you aren't ready to face God and step into
eternity, my friend, now is the time to pray and read the Word of God.
It is all there, right before our eyes. The ancient prophets wrote
about the time we are living in right now and as you read the pages of
God's Holy Word, you can see prophecies given thousands of years ago
unfold before your eyes.
"The
earth will mourn and everyone in it will languish, with the bests of
the field, the fowls of heaven, yes, even the fishes will be taken away"
Hosea 4:3. Beasts, birds and fish are dying in mass numbers
throughout the earth unlike anything ever recorded throughout history,
and Hosea saw this happening over 2,700 years before our time. I
haven't even touched on the global economic crisis, which the Bible also
records (Ezekiel 7:19). If you aren't saved, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you.

A major 6.4 earthquake hit south of Panama on Monday, June 4, 2012, at 03:15:24 UTC, at a
depth of 5.9 km (3.7
mi). This is the third major (>5.9) earthquake to hit in the last two days.
Throughout
history, there have
never been as many major earthquakes with such frequency on record as
we are seeing right now and within the last year and a-half.
Jesus said these
signs would appear before He returns, "Nation
will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be
famines, pestilences and earthquakes in various places" Matthew 24:7.
You may have noticed that the frequent major earthquakes throughout the world are hitting various places. This
is exactly what Jesus said would happen. The
graph below shows the drastic
increase in earthquake activity
between 2010 and 2011 (look closely at the 2011 increase on the graph
near the right border, as opposed to the level of earthquakes recorded
in 2010 and prior). Major earthquakes continue to increase with great
frequency in 2012.

Kano,
Nigeria: A Muslim suicide bomber
tried to drive a car packed with explosives into a church in northern
Nigeria
on Sunday, killing at least 15 people, including himself, and injuring
40,
officials said. The attacker sped up his vehicle and hit a checkpoint
near the church, where Muslims in Bauchi State have attacked in the
past. This area was hit previously by a Muslim terrorist group, Boko
Haram.
"We
have a checkpoint not far from the church, which prevented the bomber from
gaining access to his target, so he rammed the car into a security gate and the
car exploded" said state police commissioner Mohammed Ladan.
Fifteen dead bodies were found at the blast site and 40 injured were evacuated to a
hospital. Witnesses said the force of the blast near the Harvest Field of
Christ Church on the outskirts of Bauchi City caused the building to collapse
on the worshipers inside.
The Bible says,
"They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time will come that
whoever kills you will think that he does God a service" John 16:2.
God knew millenniums ago that the Muslims would kill Christians and
non-Muslims, thinking they were doing God a service. The Word of God
has an answer for everything and God forewarned us of these events.
This
terrorism will continue and prevail, until the Antichrist rules and
reigns, but his reign will only be for a short time. It is all written
in the Word, "Let
no man deceive you, for that day will not come (the return of the
Lord), except there come a falling away first and that man of sin (the
Antichrist) be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposes and exalts
himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he
sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God" 2
Thessalonians 2:3-4.
The
Muslims are going about the world, some of them in the name of peace to
distract from the Caliphate agenda, and others are going about their
god's business of subjugating the world by terrorism. The new Caliphate
will come and you will either worship the Antichrist, or you will be
beheaded (Revelation 13:16-18; Revelation 20:4). Jesus said it will be a time of great tribulation, "There
will be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the
world to this time, no, nor ever shall be" Matthew 24:21. The Word of God says His people will be caught up and taken out of the great tribulation (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18).
If you are a child of God, you have nothing at all to worry about. If
you don't know the Lord, please receive Him as your Savior and escape
the wrath of God to come. If you aren't saved, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website.

DailyMail.co.uk
(excerpts): The head of the World Bank yesterday warned that financial
markets face a rerun of the Great Panic of 2008. On the bleakest day
for the global economy this year, Robert Zoellick said crisis-torn
Europe was heading toward the "danger zone."
He alluded to the looming catastrophe amid fears of a Greek exit from the single currency and meltdown in Spain.
The
flow of money into so-called "safe havens," such as UK, German and US
government debt turned into a stampede yesterday. In Berlin, the
two-year government bond yield fell below zero for the first time, with
the bizarre result that jittery international investors are now paying -
rather than being paid - for lending to Germany. Not only did the
German two-year bond yield fall below zero for the first time, but the
yield on ten-year UK gilts - the benchmark borrowing cost for the
British government - hit a record low of 1.44 percent. The yield on the
equivalent US treasuries fell to 1.46 percent, the lowest in over 200
years of records.
There was a raft of dismal economic news from
around the world, with manufacturing output falling in Britain and
Europe, unemployment jumping in the eurozone and America, and fast
emerging economies, such as Brazil and China showing signs of running
out of steam.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed more than 200 points in New York, wiping out all its gains this year.
Desperate:
European leaders scrambled to stop the financial crisis in Spain
spiraling out of control and infecting other countries such as Italy.
Zoellick said, "Events in Greece could trigger financial fright in Spain, Italy and across the eurozone."
The Bible says concerning the last days, "They will cast their silver in
the streets and their gold will be removed; their silver and their gold
shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord.
They shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels, because
it (money) is the stumblingblock of their iniquity" Ezekiel 7:19. There
is coming a day soon when gold will be confiscated by the government,
as it was during Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidency in 1933, and silver
will be worthless due to the collapsed economy. Jesus said,
"There will be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning
of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be" Matthew 24:21.
Nevertheless, the Lord will return for His people, and they will be spared from the wrath of God to come, "Wait
for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus, who
delivered us from the wrath to come" 1Thessalonians 1:10. Are you prepared for the return of the Lord? If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you.

Chagas
disease, an illness transmitted by biting insects, has been compared to
HIV/AIDS in some respects, according to a report published in the
journal PLoS. The editorial, authored by specialists in tropical
diseases from Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, states, "Endemic
Chagas disease has emerged as an important health disparity in the
Americas. As a result, we face a situation in both Latin America and
the US that bears a resemblance to the early years of the HIV/AIDS
pandemic."
Chagas disease is already prevalent in South
America. Like AIDS, "it has a long incubation time and is hard or
impossible to cure," the New York Times reports. Both are chronic
diseases and require prolonged treatment. There are, however, strong
distinctions. Unlike HIV, a sexually transmitted disease, Chagas
disease is caused by a parasite, spread through bites of reduviid
insects, commonly known as "kissing bugs." Chagas afflicts the heart
and digestive organs, while HIV/AIDS attacks the body's immune system.
According
to the National Institutes of Health, complications from Chagas disease
can include inflammation of the heart, esophagus and colon, as well as
irregular heart beat and heart failure. According to the New York
Times, one quarter of people who contract Chagas disease eventually
develop large organs that can potentially burst, causing sudden death.
The
disease can also spread from mother to child and from blood
transfusions, according to the NIH. The disease already afflicts about
10 million people in Central and South America. The globalization of
Chagas translates up to 1 million cases in the US alone, although other
estimates place the count to about 300,000 cases in the US.
Jesus said that this would be one of the signs which signals His return, "Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places" Matthew 24:7.
We are already seeing these signs increasing consistently throughout
the globe now. Are you prepared to stand before the Lord to give an
account of your decision about Him, and step into eternity? If not,

A
heavy hailstorm hit southeastern France last Sunday destroying the
vineyards of Cotes-de-Provence and Coteaux-Varios, around the villages
of Pignans, Carnoules, Flassans-sur-Issole, Carces, Besse-sur-Issole,
Brignoles, Correns, Cotignac, and Le Val et Montfort-sur-Argens. The
hail was so violent that it destroyed entire harvests for this year,
next year and possibly into 2014. Local mayors have asked for a state
of natural catastrophe to be declared.According to Bible prophecy, there will be more severe storms with hail, as we near the return of the Lord. "Behold, the Lord has a mighty strong tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall He cast down to earth with His hand" Isaiah 28:2. When the Lord is angry because of man's rebellion and sinfulness, He brings storms upon the earth.
"The Lord shall cause His glorious voice to be heard and will show the
lightning of his arm, with the indignation of His anger and with the
flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, tempest and hailstones"
Isaiah 30:30 Jesus said these would be signs of His return, "There
will be great earthquakes in various places, famines, pestilences and
there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven" Luke 21:11. Are you prepared to step into eternity and be judged by the Lord when He returns? If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you.

New
Mexico: Crews battling a massive wildfire in southwestern New Mexico's
Gila National Forest were unable to stop the blaze that has raged
across more than 190 square miles of mountainous forest lands since last
week. The White-Water Baldy Complex fire grew to more than 122,000
acres and was about two miles away from the privately owned ghost town
of Mogollon. Residents in the area were evacuated over the weekend.
The fire destroyed a dozen homes and several outbuildings on Wednesday
in the community of Willow Creek.
Arizona: Arizona fire
officials said the Gladiator Fire, a blaze that has charred 16,000
acres, is now 40% contained and electricity has been restored to some
areas.
Southern California: Crews were fighting a stubborn
wildfire that burned through 4,100 acres of grass and bush in rural San
Diego County. They had it 90% contained by Sunday evening.
Utah: Firefighters expect to bring a 2,200 acre fire under control 290 miles south of Salt Lake City.
Colorado:
Crews battled two wildfires in Colorado that burned 12 square miles.
The larger fire burned public land about four miles north of Paradox and
220 miles west of Denver near the Colorado-Utah border.
The Word of God says, "I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath, blood, fire and vapor of smoke" Acts 2:19.
It appears this may allude to many fires in the last days. In fact,
last year and in 2010, nations throughout the world experienced
record-breaking fires. Several hundred fires broke out in Russia in
July 2010, due to record temperatures (the hottest recorded summer in
Russian history) and drought in the region. An estimated 56,000 people
died that year alone. The Bible also says more of those scorching
temperatures will occur during the tribulation period (last 7 years
before the Lord returns), "The fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire" Revelation 16:8. Very
dark and horrifying times are coming upon the earth, as we draw nearer
to the return of the Lord. This will be a period during which the wrath
of God will be poured out upon the wicked for their evil works; the
people of God will not be here. Jesus will catch up His people before
the 7-year tribulation period begins, "The
Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of
the archangel, and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ will
rise first; then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up
together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so
shall we ever be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with
these words" 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18. Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Savior? Are you ready for eternity? If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you.

Nevado del Ruiz vocanoResidents
in western Colombia woke to find their cities and towns covered in
volcanic ash Wednesday, May 29, after an area volcano with a deadly past
began spewing an ash cloud as high as 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) into
the atmosphere. Local authorities raised the alert for Colombia's
Nevado del Ruiz from yellow to orange, indicating an eruption was likely
in the coming days or weeks, though not imminent. When the volcano
erupted suddenly on November 13, 1985, at least 23,000 people were
killed, reported NASA's Earth Observatory.
The Word of God says, "I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath, blood, fire and vapor of smoke" Acts 2:19.
As we advance closer to the return of the Lord and the great
tribulation period, there will be more volcanic eruptions and fires
throughout the world, as we are
beginning to see now, according to Bible prophecy. Jesus will return,
just as He promised in His
Word, and many who have not received Him as their Savior will be left
behind to face the tribulation. Jesus said,
"There will be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of
the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be" Matthew 24:21. Are you saved? If not, please visit the How Can I Be Saved page of this website. God bless you.
