FACTS ABOUT THE FEDERAL RESERVE

For the next couple of days, I am going to post some information regarding the Federal Reserve System and how it is destroying our country and families! Next time you enter a new town, take note of two of the biggest buildings there. One is the bank and one is the Insurance Company. Interesting isn't it? Well they are all tied in together. It all goes back to a scam that was pulled over our parents and grandparents eyes when we just happened to suffer a Great Depression. That was when America was sold to Socialism by the way and it has been getting worse since that time.The section below is taken from a website whose link I will provide below for further reading. Why so many bankruptcies, divorces, financial distresses and suicides? Let me say here that it is not all the fault of the hard working people in this country. They were led into a matrix and only a dose of truth can set us free. So fasten you seat belts and get ready to learn about America's Monster, The Federal Reserve.

Billions for the Bankers - Debts for the People

The Real Story Of The Money-Control Over America
by Sheldon Emry



"Take no usury of him, or increase...thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury." Leviticus 25:36-67



In the early Church, any interest on debt was considered usury.



-- If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. -- Thomas Jefferson




How The People Lost Control To The Privately Owned Federal Reserve
Instead of the Constitutional method of creating our money and putting it into circulation, we now have an entirely unconstitutional system. This has resulted in almost disastrous conditions, as we shall see.
Since our money was handled both legally and illegally before 1913, we shall consider only the years following 1913, since from that year on, ALL of our money has been created and issued by an illegal method that will eventually destroy the United States if it is not changed.

Prior to 1913, America was a prosperous, powerful, and growing nation, at peace with its neighbors and the envy of the world. But, in December of 1913, Congress, with many members away for the Christmas holidays, passed what has since been known as the Federal Reserve Act. Omitting the burdensome details, it simply authorized the establishment of a privately owned national bank deceptively named The Federal Reserve Corporation. It had a Board of Directors (The Federal Reserve Board) to run it, and the United States was divided into 12 Federal Reserve "Districts." This simple, but terrible, law completely removed from Congress the right to "create" money or to have any control over its "creation," and gave that function to the Federal Reserve Corporation.

This was done with appropriate fanfare and propaganda that this would "remove money from politics" (they didn't say "and therefore from the people's control") and prevent "Boom and Bust" from hurting our citizens. The people were not told then, and most still do not know today, that the Federal Reserve Corporation is a private corporation controlled by bankers and operated for the financial gain of the bankers over the people rather than for the good of the people. The word "Federal" was used only to deceive the people.

More Disastrous Than Pearl Harbor
Since that "day of infamy," more disastrous to us than Pearl Harbor, the small group of "privileged" people who lend us "our" money have accrued to themselves all of the profits of printing our money - and more! Since 1913 they have "created" tens of billions of dollars in money and credit, which, as their own personal property, they then lend to our government and our people at interest.


They Print It - We Borrow It - And Pay Them Interest

We shall start with the need for money. The Federal Government, having spent more than it has taken from its citizens in taxes, needs, for the sake of illustration, $1,000,000,000. Since it does not have the money, and Congress has given away its authority to "create" it, the Government must go the "creators" for the $1 billion. But, the Federal Reserve, a private corporation, doesn't just give its money away! The Bankers are willing to deliver $1,000,000,000 in money or credit to the Federal Government in exchange for the Government's agreement to pay it back- with interest!

So Congress authorizes the Treasury Department to print $1,000,000,000 in U.S. Bonds, which are then delivered to the Federal Reserve Bankers. TheFederal Reserve then pays the cost of printing the $1,000,000,000 (about $1,000) and makes the exchange. The Government then uses the money to pay its obligations.

What are the results of this fantastic scam? Well, $1 billion in Government bills are paid all right, but the Government has now indebted the citizens to the Bankers for $1 billion on which the taxpayers must pay interest! Tens of thousands of such transactions have taken place since 1913 so that by the 1980's, the U.S. Government is indebted to the Bankers for over $1,000,000,000,000 (trillion) on which the people pay over $100 billion a year just in interest alone with no hope of ever paying off the principal.
Unless we repent of this sin, our children and following generations will pay forever and forever!

NOW DO YOU SEE WHY OUR TAXES ARE GOING UP EVERY YEAR INSPITE OF THE PROMISE TO LOWER THEM?

War Drums Are Sounding!

Thanks to Chris Davis for this email.

Prayer wheel for our servicemen and women

Please send this on after a short prayer.

Prayer Wheel

"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them
as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask
this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen."

Prayer Wheel: When you receive this, please stop for a
moment and say a prayer for our ground troops in
Afghanistan. There is nothing attached.... This can be
very powerful.... Just send this to all the people in your
address book. Do not stop the wheel, please....
Of all the gifts you could give a US Soldier,
Prayer is the very best one.


THE WAR DRUMS ARE SOUNDING
Well today the Congress has spoken. Our men and women are going to be sent to war against Iraq. When and how, we do not know but it is coming. America at war again. I don't know what your feelings are about the situation but I believe we had to do something. The interesting thing is that as this unfolds, we see Bible Prophecy unfolding as well. It is amazing to me to see little Israel still standing in that region. Her enemies have vowed to wipe her out and yet she still stands! God promised that when he brought the Jews back into their own land in the last days, that they would never be uprooted again. I am proud that America still supports Israel in this conflict. I pray we never turn our back on the "apple of God's eye". His promise to, "Bless those that bless them and curse those that curse them",in the book of Genesis, is still true today just as it was to Abraham when our Father made the promise. Take time today to pray for America and little Israel as they stand almost alone against the evil one and his forces. Of course anyone who has read the last book in the Bible knows we win in the end!
God Bless
Elaine

A WORD FROM BILL KOENING!

Think About It!

Israel Perspective – Bill Koenig
October 8, 2002

Below are some thoughts and reflections from my recent trip to Israel. This is the first part of a two-part commentary.

Israel’s Suffering

We continue to encourage people to stand with Israel and the Jewish people, as we have through our news service for years.

Should we continue to stand with Israel with great passion? Absolutely! Now like never before is the time to show our love and support.

In reflection, and in all due respect to our Jewish brothers and sisters, there are reasons Israel is experiencing their challenges and hardships: for one, they have rejected Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. That is what our Bible states.

Additionally, Israel's leaders have been persuaded by American presidents to participate in the “land for peace” talks on God’s covenant land, which has worsened things for Israelis at home. But none of this should be a surprise, because it is part of God’s end-time plan spelled out in the Old and New Testament. Our Lord said all this would happen; it is especially significant today as we watch Bible Prophecy play out rapidly.

In a biblical perspective we are rapidly moving towards the times spoken of Isaiah 13, 17, 19; Joel 1-3; Ezekiel 38-39; Zechariah 12-14; and many others.

Furthermore, our Bible says there will not be lasting peace until Jesus Christ returns to the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. The Jews are looking for lasting peace and security today, but Christians know that will only happen when Jesus Christ begins His reign in the New Jerusalem.

Let’s also not forget: if the United States continues to push on Israel or leaves Israel’s side, we will feel major repercussions. We have shown in “Israel: The Blessing or the Curse” many examples of same-day events when US Presidents apply pressure on Israel to give up her covenant land. They are enormous in size and magnitude. The three largest insurance events in US history all have same-day Israel components. Seven of the top ten FEMA events in US history all have same-day tie-ins to Israel’s covenant land. When Israel’s land is put at risk, the United States’ land and property suffers the consequences.

US leaders don’t realize it, but our survival is dependant on our role in Israel. The United States is coming into a direct collision course with God over His land, and we know who will win if we continue this course.

President Bush

May I respectfully suggest, President Bush, that the UN Resolutions don’t have priority over the covenants of the Bible? Moreover, the God of Israel does not care about UN Resolutions 242 and 338. Also, if you continue to attempt to parcel God’s covenant land and plan on negotiating over the status of Jerusalem, you will be held accountable and there will be a dear price.

Furthermore, President Bush, I doubt the God of Israel appreciates US voters being told the US Embassy will be moved to Jerusalem after you are elected, only to have it continually postponed to appease the Arabs.

Respectfully, Secretary Powell, may I suggest that Jerusalem is not to be part of final negotiations? The City of the King’s borders are not negotiable.

We also know the Lord is using the decisions of our world leaders, including our president, to bring things to completion. Yes, we becomes disappointed at times by their actions, but we must not forget these decisions and efforts are also being used by the Lord to bring His redemptive plan for the world to completion.

Jews looking to Christians

Many Jews right now are looking to Christians to help improve the situation in Israel. Yes, those who bless Israel will be blessed (Gen. 12:3), but the only one who will permanently bless Israel is Jesus Christ.

Israelis are very appreciative of the Christians who are standing with Israel. Many of us who have traveled to Israel recently have experienced the outpouring of their love and appreciation. They have been very appreciative of the outpouring of our love, too. It is ironic that some Israelis and Jews around the world believe the main reason Christians are standing with Israel is for the blessings that are mentioned in Genesis 12:3. “No, it is much more than that; it is the Jesus Christ in us through the Holy Spirit that gives us this passion and love for you.” We must remember no one else in the world is standing with Israel and the Jews but Christians. What is the reason? It is Jesus Christ!

The strong feelings and the willingness to stand in the gap for Israel and Jews is from Jesus Christ, too, and it will continue to grow in us as times get more challenging. This isn’t a natural love; it is a supernatural love for Israel and the Jewish people through the Jesus Christ in us.

Israel is not the only one being tested right now. The Lord is also looking for leaders and people to stand with Israel in the United States and around the world. President Bush, and Secretary of State Colin Powell, too, will be accountable for their positions pertaining to Israel. If a man professes to be a Christian, he, too, must side with Israel and not attempt to appease the enemy of Jews and Christians. The decisions on Israel should not be made in the natural; these are decisions that should be made with the Bible in one’s hand.

During our trip to Israel we heard many times from government leaders and citizens their appreciation for President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. However, if President Bush continues to push on Israel to give up their covenant land, our nation and Israel will experience the repercussions. The leaders of Israel will also face further repercussions if they continue to go along the “land for peace” road.

We have been blessed by our leaders in some ways, such as their commitment to making things more secure for Israel. But Jerusalem, the settlements, and the boundaries of God’s covenant land are not negotiable.

Lord’s Plan

The Lord will even use President Bush’s plan to democratize the Middle East. In the natural it sounds like one of the better reasons they are using to substantiate the US battle against terrorism, but the Bible says it will never happen.

The United States is also being used by the Lord to single-handedly battle against radical Islam. And, He plans to use circumstances to bring many more to Him. He is in active pursuit of the lost. It is about souls.

The Lord will also use the improved relations between Jews and Christians for His benefit. He will use the “land for peace” debacle for His purpose of fulfilling Bible prophecy and His redemptive plan.

The passionate Christians will continue to stand with Israel It might not influence policy, but it will be used by the Lord to improve our relations with Jews.

There is also a part of the Christian church that needs to be awakened, for it is almost totally oblivious to what is transpiring in the Middle East.

Another reminder: we see a glimpse of what the Lord is doing, yet he is has multiple (perhaps hundreds, thousands, or millions) of reasons for everything He does. He knows where we will be in 30, 90, 120 days or more. He knows where He is taking things, and He will maneuver them accordingly.

As we move forward, yes, there will be things that happen that bother us, but they, too, have a place and purpose in God’s redemptive plan for the world. Yes, He is still in control and has circumstances well in hand.

IDOLS IN THE HOUSE

IDOLS IN THE HOUSE

Once in a while a book comes along that catches my attention. This book has and I am going to order it myself. It is called Idols In The House and you can order it at World Net Daily simply by going to the shopping area of the website and searching for that name. I will provide a link directly to the order site but if you have not signed up to purchase there you will have to do so and it is free to sign up. Here is an exerpt from the book:

"Ted Flynn’s new book, Idols in the House, delves into these very matters. Using the history in the Bible, particularly regarding Israel, Flynn shows how God dealt with nations in the past that have turned their backs on Him. For what sins has God judged past civilizations? The United States claims to be “one nation under God,” yet its laws and people have almost wholeheartedly embraced pagan idolatry and even barbaric practices. There is ample documented evidence in the book to support these claims. America is moving quickly toward the complete legalization of homosexual “unions” and cloning, the fruits of the “Culture of Death.” Scandal and corruption abound among priests, ministers, seminarians and church hierarchy. These situations are directly opposed to the laws of God. How can a nation claim to be “under God,” yet behave in ways so separated from His will? Would God allow such a country to carry on indefinitely which mocks Him by ignoring His precepts? Reading this book, one can only conclude that America is a post-Christian nation. "

Thoughts From Patrick Henry! Think About It...

Patrick Henry Once Said!


They tell us, Sir, that we are weak - unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed?…

Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs, and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?…

Sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of Nations… This battle, Sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave … There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged!…

Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace! - but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! … Why stand we here idle? What is it that Gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased as the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

National ID'S Anyone? Think About It!

The scriptures tell us that in the last days a man/devil is going to come on the scene. He is the Anti-Christ and I am sure all of you have heard about this person and you know that he is not such a good fellow. The scriptures tell us that he is going to cause both small and great to receive his mark on their forehead or hand and without that mark they can neither buy nor sell. Also at that time those who refuse the mark will surely be tribulation saints and they will immediately be sent to the guillotine (Revelation 13:16-18)! There is an article in the Washington Times this morning that really is a wakeup call for us all. . Now I am not saying that the National ID card is the Mark Of The Beast but it is a forerunner and it is going to have all of our personal data for all to see encrypted into the card. Big Brother will have all the information he needs to control even our daily activities. I personally do not know if I will be able to apply for this card. I got upset when the bank wanted to fingerprint me in order to cash a check. I politely told them no thanks and went to my own bank.

To Read The Article Click Here: Big Brother and The National ID Card

This article once again reinforces my belief that the Rapture of the church is very near and this world scene is winding down. The only hope for us all is Jesus and He is coming back to stop all of the insanity. I pray everyone reading this article knows him as Savior. If you do not, you can today! John 3:16 tells us that God loved us so much that he sent his Son to die in our place for our sins. Romans 3:23 tells us that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. How can one be saved? Romans 10:8-10 states, that if we confess with our mouth the Lord Jesus Christ and believe in our heart that God raised Him from the dead, thou Shalt be saved. If you do not know my Jesus then pray that prayer today and settle the question of where you will spend eternity once and for all.

Right now you can pray:
Dear Lord I know that I am a sinner and I believe that Jesus Christ came and died for my sins. You said in your word that, “If I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead”, that I could be saved. Lord I know I have sinned and I ask you to please forgive me of my sins and Lord I ask you to come into my heart and save me. Help me to live for you from this day forward. Amen!

If you prayed that prayer then I would like to welcome you into God’s family. Also, please email me of your decision so we all can rejoice with you and I can send you some literature to read.

God Bless
Elaine

"God Hath Not Given Us A Spirit Of Fear"!

When I begin talking to people about what is happening in our country, many times I hear words of fear expressed. I cannot blame people for having fear because the government has made sure that the people have heard the horror stories. The controlled media makes sure the people do not hear of the victories that have been won. Fear can be a great motivator. However most in America (because they haven't been taught the truth), now fear their government. This includes the churches, Boy Scouts and many other good organizations. I truly believe that the battle for America is the Lord's battle. He is the one who led a tiny band of Puritans to this country's shores to establish a nation under God. They were persecuted in Europe and I am sure with fear and trepidation they loaded up the boats and sailed to the future America.

Devvy Kid a great American has posted an article about fear at her site and it is awesome! Here is a quote:

"What if everyone who ever felt fear, simply took the easy way out? What if everyone who ever felt fear, just gave up and said, "I can live on my knees. At least I will be alive and comfortable." That reminds me of the movie, The Magnificent Seven. After Eli Wallach, the bad bandito, comes in and shoots up the village and kills one of the peons, the village men stand around looking at each other. One man sheepishly and in a cowardly fashion says, "It's not so bad. They do leave us a little to eat."
Is that what we've reduced our great nation down to? So what if the government is raining tyranny against her people? As long as we are left a few crumbs, we should get on our knees and accept it - we the people of the once great and mighty United States of America? This is cowardice.

What is it you are protecting? The continued destruction of our natural born rights? Our guns are the last thing between us and them and anyone who doubts that lives in a state of blind stupidity. We know that all these gun laws are unconstitutional, yet it will continue until the shadow government finally reaches the point where they have orchestrated a situation in this country where full confiscation will take place. Without our guns, we will be toast. Deep in your heart, you know this.

Their ability to buy politicians and special interest groups comes from money. Their ability to enslave us, keep us working two and three jobs just to make ends meet,their ability to instill fear in US through all these draconian federal junk laws - it all comes from money. The continuation of this assault on our freedom will mushroom unchecked because it is being protected by your fear."

Devvy has been in the battle for truth a long time and I hope you enjoy the article. What can I do? I have been asked that question. First and foremost I recommend you go to the We The People site and sign up as a member. When enough people are informed of the truth they will go to the ballot box to make their voices heard. That is one thing that shakes these politicians up. Next pray for America. She is in trouble and only with the help of God, will we be able to lead her out of this mess. Then go to church. Be faithful to the house of God for it is there you will get wisdom through His word. If your church is playing church and not holding the Word up as Truth, then get out and find one that will.

Hope you enjoy Devvy's words they are truly powerful. Go to: Devvy Kidd Writes On Fear

God Bless America
