Examine 2015 before our New Years Resolutions

king-david-in-prayerKing David in Prayer

It is always prudent to examine our past as we start off the New Year.

Were we judgmental before knowing all of the facts?
Were you aware that foolishness is sinful?
How much gossip were we involved in?
Were we honest with ourselves in 2015?
How much charity did we express among the Brethren.
Did we show our love for the truth?
Did we put private revelations above the deposit of Faith?
What did we do to help the Faithful foster Unity last year?
Did we check the reliability of a story before forwarding it to others?

As 2015 ends remember we are one year closer to Our Death and one year closer to Christ’s return on  that last Pentecost Sunday or Saturday depending what part of the world that your in at the time. One must remember that the Lord cannot return until those 4 prophecies that I recently sent out come to a conclusion.

Grace be with you, In Christ, Joseph

Boubakeur relented: “This is a delicate issue, but why not,” he said. MORE

Battered, bruised and jumpy — the whole world is on edge

EDGEIn 2015, a sense of unease and foreboding seemed to settle on all the world’s major power centres. From Beijing to Washington, Berlin to Brasília, Moscow to Tokyo — governments, media and citizens were jumpy and embattled.

This kind of globalised anxiety is unusual. For the past 30 years and more, there has been at least one world power that was bullishly optimistic. In the late 1980s the Japanese were still enjoying a decades-long boom — and confidently buying up assets all over the world. In the 1990s America basked in victory in the cold war and a long economic expansion. In the early 2000s the EU was in a buoyant mood, launching a single currency and nearly doubling its membership. And for most of the past decade, the growing political and economic power of China has inspired respect all over the world. MORE
