YOU TELL ME


George Offerman

Catholics cannot help but feel somewhat overwhelmed or at least wonder what is going on concerning the resignation of Pope Benedict, the first one in over 600 years.  Of course, there is a lot of speculation on this matter, and in many senses of the word, it doesn’t really matter what the reasons are, because it is what is currently going on behind the scenes that seems to be taking on a life of its own.  Regardless of Pope Benedict’s health, the odds were that had he continued on in the Papacy, his time may have been very short lived anyway.  This is in no way an attempt to disparage the Pope, but merely to point out how the times have changed, and even matters that appeared to be written in stone are subject to change in these strange times.
I’ve been a follower of the prophecies of St. Malachy since I first was introduced to them by my pastor while in high school.  I was in the beginning stages of studies in Revelation, and my pastor told me about these prophecies when I told him that I believed I would live to see the fulfillment of Revelation in my lifetime (such youthful foolishness).  I found them intriguing, but remember thinking that someone had made them up recently to make them look accurate and then credited them to some guy that lived over 700 years ago.  I was most intrigued with the last Pope, who would be known as “Peter the Roman”.  I thought that there would be a good possibility that I would be alive to see this, given John Paul II had just taken the Seat of Peter, and we only needed two more popes after that.  But more importantly, I remember thinking this is a fairly specific prophecy, and St. Malachy would have to nail this one perfectly before I would believe in this.
Fast forward 35 years.  We now have a cardinal from Ghana named Peter Kowodo Applah Turkson who appears to be the ‘frontrunner’ in the upcoming conclave to elect a new Supreme Pontiff.  Despite being from Ghana, Turkson studied in the United States, and finished his Theological Studies in Rome, earning the nickname “Peter the Roman” from his native Ghanaians. On top of that, Cardinal Turkson has come out with a comprehensive plan on how to deal with the many dissenting factions and social problems that many in the church are looking for.  However, all is not rosy concerning Cardinal Turkson, as noted in this Wikipedia entry:
In October 2011 Cardinal Turkson called for the establishment of a “global public authority” and a “central world bank” to rule over financial institutions that have become outdated and often ineffective in dealing fairly with crises. The document, Towards Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of a Global Public Authority was very specific, calling for taxation measures on financial transactions. It notes that “The economic and financial crisis which the world is going through calls everyone, individuals and peoples, to examine in depth the principles and the cultural and moral values at the basis of social coexistence,” it said. The document condemned what it called “the idolatry of the market” as well as a “neo-liberal thinking” that it said looked exclusively at technical solutions to economic problems. “In fact, the crisis has revealed behaviors like selfishness, collective greed and hoarding of goods on a great scale,” it said, adding that world economics needed an “ethic of solidarity” among rich and poor nations.[11][12]   Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Turkson 
Read below St Malachy’s prediction for the last pope:
The prediction in full is "In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Peter the Roman, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations, after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people.  The end”

We have the potential for a major conflict as Pope Benedict abdicates the Seat of Peter in about 2 weeks.  Soon, we will know if those in the Vatican, that have been trying to warn the laity and other clergy that dark forces have infiltrated and are on the verge of total control over the church are right.  Either way, we are entering a very dark period of time in world history, and it is way past time to remain vigilant and in constant prayer asking the Lord to reveal his will to us.

"DON'T LET YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED"



George Offerman

There is no question we live in very dark times, and there is also no question that pessimism reigns.  While both observations are valid, there is a glaring omission in those who simply like to ‘hang out’ in the darkness.  Those who simply look at the view from a pragmatical or human perspective do not take into account who is really running the show, and are too caught up in the current drama to see what the end result will be.  So this post will cover some ground and discuss the current matters in a much different light than what many expositors and commentators are doing.  It is time to live by faith and not by sight, as this battle and its outcome have been pre-determined from the beginning of time.
Many have asked me if I believe the incompetent, inbred idiots known as the money powers will succeed in creating a one world order.  My answer has been consistent and staunch: it will not happen outside of Revelation and there is nothing they can do about it.  If a person, who wants to call himself a Christian lets his sight determine what he believes, he cannot help but become afraid and worry about the future.    We have been told over and over again that true Christians walk by faith and not by sight and to not concern themselves about the future if they are doing what they are supposed to be doing.   From a human perspective, it in fact, does look like the money powers finally have the world in a position to institute its one world order.  But that is from a human perspective and not God’s perspective. 
Throughout the Bible, God has empowered the weak and few in numbers to confound the strong and many, and tends to do this when all looks lost.  We have many of the same conditions currently, and the outcome will be no different here as in many other times of old.  However, there can be tremendous suffering and purging and purifying before restoration occurs, and most likely it will be the case for us.  There is much wrong that needs to be made right and whole, and we need to deal with the consequences of our choices as a society, and no one will be exempt from the pain and suffering ready to bear down upon us.  But does this mean it will be the end?
A Christian, coming from a theocentric point of view will find that despite the times of trouble, there can be an inner peace and tranquility because Jesus promised us that he has overcome the world, and has made clear through Revelation that man will not be successful in enslaving the whole world under one dictator until Revelation.  And we are not in Revelation at this time.  So, things will get worse and much scarier without a doubt, but God will have a surprise for his nemesis and his army; they will be taken out by a source that will humiliate them, and they will not see it coming.
We are in very rough times in our nation, and we have a very rogue and evil government that is openly at war with the Catholic Church concerning abortion, homosexual marriage and the contraception debate.  This very rogue and evil government is also at war with all patriots and producers to take more, and attempt to control all behaviors by wanting to outlaw anything that can be hidden from their view.  As Christians, we are called to be the light of the world, and that means exposing these evil people for what they really are and what they are about.  It is a very uncomfortable task, but one we are mandated to do by virtue of the great commission; spreading the word of God to a fallen world.  If we believe this and take it seriously, there is no way we can lose and we very well may convert multitudes before all is said and done.
This evil government is doomed.  They are doomed because they openly mock the Living God and His Ways.  I cannot tell any of you what their downfall will look like, or when it will happen, and what the condition of the world will be, but it is a certainty that it will happen.  This evil government, along with the incompetent, inbred idiots known as the money powers, are on the wrong side of history, and by extension, eternity.   We ought to be doing everything in our power in getting this message out to a darkened and pain filled world.  We ought to be the beacon light and hope for many who feel hopeless, and helpless in these times.  We are assured of victory, and we need to start acting like it.
So, do not worry about speaking out when seeing evil.  Do not worry about being put on some insane list this evil government makes.  Do not worry about what others may think or say about you.  Stay focused on the prize, and all will be made right by the king, creator and RIGHTFUL OWNER of the universe.  These people are not gods; they are ‘wanna be’ goof balls that think because they were born into the lucky sperm club, that they are the masters of the universe.  Well, I can assure them as much as I can assure you; the true Owner of the universe will make sure they are clear on what is really up and who really owns who.  “I shall not be mocked: whatsoever a man soweth, shall he reap”.  Words given by the Owner of all things to the wayward and rebellious.  Who do you think will win?
