Obama is due to arrive in Jerusalem on March 20, according to local Israeli newspapers. At the top of the President's agenda is to convince (confirm?) Prime Minister Netanyahu that the US is serious about preventing Iran from developing a nuclear bomb. Is this "And he will confirm a covenant with many." - Daniel 9:27?
On the second day of Obama's visit, at precisely noon time, Obama will visit a model of Jerusalem during the Second Temple period.
Israel is also featuring an Ice Festival during the months of March and April. Although it is unclear if Obama will visit, a sculpture has been constructed in his image. Revelation 13:15 - "The second beast (the Pope?) was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed."
According to the prophecy of Saint Malachy written in 1138 A.D. St. Malachy stated there would be 112 popes of the Roman Catholic Church. St. Malachy did not assign names to these popes, but rather he described them in a descriptive manner. Pope number 111 he described as being of the olives or somehow being connected to olives. To some of his friends, Pope Benedict - who has recently resigned - was known as the Olivet Pope. Pope Benedict was also pope number 111.
Saint Malachy did make one exception in his descriptions of the future Popes of the Catholic Church. He said the final Pope, Pope number 112, would be a black man whom he named Peter of Rome.
Revelation 8:1, "When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour." On February 3, 2013, the Superbowl was played between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49er's. About a minute and a half into the third quarter following a 109 yard punt return by Jacoby Jones, the lights went out in the stadium. After about half an hour (34 minutes) the lights came on again. I have heard, and I tend to agree, that this period of about half an hour is symbolic of Revelation 8:1.
The second half of this game was also totally different than the first half. Although the Ravens held off the attack by San Francisco, the game was a much different game in the second half than it was during the first half. I believe this is also God's way of saying that the next three and a half years will be totally different than the last three and a half years.
A couple of years ago while sitting in church on a Sunday morning, I suddenly felt the impression to write something. I grabbed a church bulletin and on the back of it I wrote, "Within the next five days, the world will have changed." Five days later, the Arab Spring began.
I have that sane feeling again. But this time, I have this feeling: Within the next ten days, the world will have changed.
God is coming, Jesus will be here soon, I am ready to meet my maker (can;t wait in fact) are you ready?

the 2nd Amendment Limits the Government, Not the People
The Bill of Rights was put into place to limit the government, not to limit the people.
There is no such thing as gun control, call it for what it is - people control.

North Korean Threats Warrant Response
North Korea's bellicose rhetoric warrants a response. With tensions as high as they are, the traditional avenues of sending in the 101st Airborne or deploying an aircraft carrier to the region would only heighten tensions further. Military action of any type is the wrong way to go, but the severity of Kim Jung Un's statements require that the United States make a firm, but reasonable reply.
The United States could establish a Radio Free Korea in Seoul. This would broadcast actual news - not the fiction broadcast by North Korean media - to the North Korean people. Although this broadcast could be conducted by shortwave, there is probably no one in North Korea who has a shortwave receiver therefore Radio Free Korea would need to broadcast over existing channels, perhaps even overriding existing North Korean broadcasts.
In addition, I would create a TV station, based aboard a U.S. Navy ship. This would be positioned in international waters off the coast of North Korea and broadcast into North Korea, most likely also overriding existing North Korean TV.
Next, I would let the North Korean people know, perhaps through the above two media, that any North Korean citizen escaping the country into China, may ask for asylum in the United States and be granted asylum. They would be provided food, medical care, clothes, a home and education up to and including any college or university in the United States.
Finally, I would inform the North Korean leadership that their bellicose rhetoric is taken seriously, and that, as a result, the United States and its allies are considering extending NATO to include South Korea.
Prior to the implementation of these measures, I would send a message to the North Korean leadership that the United States will implement the first three of these measures unless an immediate toning down and cessation of North Korea's scaremongering is undertaken. Failing that, these first three measures will be implemented within 90 days. If North Korea should continue its dangerous war threats beyond this period, the inclusion of South Korea to the NATO alliance will be brought before the NATO members. All of this must be made clear to North Korea in order that they may make a reasoned reply by curtailing their saber rattling.
In no way would I escalate tensions in a military dimension at this time, except for certain naval assets and Patriot missile batteries. Planned redeployments of naval assets to the Western Pacific would continue as planned while ships and aircraft capable of spotting and shooting down a North Korean missile barrage, as well as Patriot missile batteries, would be positioned in and about South Korea.
I believe this is a fair but firm, and measured response to the North Korean threats and that this response sends the message to North Korea that the United States takes these threats seriously, will respond appropriately and has the means and the will to defend the people of the United States as well as friends and allies.
