WORLD AFFAIRS

IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE:

I have come through a difficult year as a result of sickness. I have therefore missed out on the WA. 3, and combine it now with no. 4. I thank the Lord that I am getting better.

Here at the end of the year, it is today November 3, I have a great burden on my heart. You will all agree with me that the state of the world at the moment is a cause of great concern, It is difficult to put the finger on any particular spot. But there is a general feeling of uncertainty and fear for what the future might hold.

It is beginning to seem more and more that the U.S.A. is finding itself in Iraq in a kind of Vietnam situation. It is like someone who has a tiger by the tail: he cannot hold on any longer, but he dare not let go either. In the meantime the U.S.A. is getting exhausted; the population is getting dissatisfied and worn down. It could cost Mr George W Bush the next presidential election. That will mean that he will be the last American President who was elected by an Anglo-Saxon majority. The next president will come into power by the vote of a majority of a mixture of non-whites. They will determine the policy of the United States of America, both domestically and internationally. And it will be a policy founded upon non-Christian principles. A very well known person, whose name I have forgotten unfortunately, once said: “An America that is no longer good, will also no longer be great”.

It is also the same with the American economy. It has been hanging on a thread for a long time, it could snap any moment, and take the whole world with it. It is the same with American power that has been the guarantee of the security and peace of the Western World up till now. It was the technological superiority of the U.S.A. that has made her the military super power that she is.

But Russia and China are not far behind her. China has recently also sent a man into space. It has been known for a long time that she has submarines roaming the oceans of the world, capable of launching nuclear missiles from under the water at all the major cities of the West. So has Russia.

In addition to this the people of the East are fast flooding the West. The Moslem faith is almost the strongest faith in Great Britain, and in Western Europe. The Christian Faith that has been the strength of the Western Nations, is almost in the minority and very lukewarm at that. At the same time the coloured peoples are infiltrating the white nations to such and extent, that a large percentage of them are a mixed breed already. That is of course the aim of the enemy to make of us a completely bastard race. Even here in South Africa, the one time bastion of racial purity (segregation was entrenched in our Constitution), the walls are crumbling fast.

That will of course completely wipe out the original intent of God to fill this earth with His image. At the same time God Himself will be banished from this earth, because it is a fact of history that the true faith in the Living God has been carried by the White Race. Where the White Man disappeared, the pure faith in the Only True God also vanished and was replaced by idol worship and superstition. That is what happened in the days of Noah. Noah was the last pure offspring of Adam, he was “a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.” – (Genesis 6:9). The rest were so mixed with the seed of the fallen angels, that they had no desire to believe in God, and the earth was corrupt and filled with violence, and all their thoughts were only evil continually. Our Lord Jesus warned us that at the time of His second coming it would again be the same as it was in the days of Noah. We can see it today. Unless therefore, there is a drastic change, there is no hope for this world. We will either be condemned to everlasting slavery to darkness, or we will destroy ourselves. We are on the very verge of it, we can sense it without comprehending it. We are on the very edge of the greatest change that the world has ever seen.

WHAT SAYETH THE PROPHETS?

The prophet Amos wrote: “Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth His secret unto His servants the prophets.” – (Amos 3:7). That is, we will see this great revolution clearly spelt out in the prophets. When we face it, we stand in awe and trembling before what we read. This whole setup as we know it now, not only on earth, but even in heaven is about to be overturned on a scale far beyond our understanding. Those who believe the prophets, and act accordingly, will be preserved through this overturning, but those who do not believe, will be destroyed. It will be exactly as it was in the days of Noah. For 120 years Noah warned that the Flood was coming while he carried on building the ark. It was something that the people of that time had never seen before, they had to accept it by faith or reject it. The earth and the heavens were going to be changed on a scale far beyond their wildest imagination. The whole earth was going to be overflowed with water, and the heavens, as they knew it, would disappear. And because they could not comprehend it with their understanding, they rejected and ridiculed it and perished in the flood. They again rather believed the devil’s lie of “Hath God said?” and rejected the Word of God through His prophet Noah.

This is how it is written in Scripture: “Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper.” – (2 Chronicles 20:20).

Our Lord Jesus reproved His disciples because they did not believe the prophets:

“O fools and slow of heart to believe all the prophets have spoken: Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory. And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, He expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning Himself.” – (Luke 24:25-27).

LISTEN TO THE PROPHETS:

I can therefore on the authority of our Lord Jesus Himself earnestly exhort you to give heed to the prophets, even though it is far beyond your understanding. This world system of which you and I are the slaves already, is about to be overturned violently, in the dream which Daniel interpreted for Nebuchadnezzar, the kingdoms of this world and its money systems, political strangleholds and religious hierarchies are going to be shattered and ground to powder and the winds of heaven will blow them away like the chaff of the threshing floors. This is how Daniel put it:

“Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all there kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.” – (Daniel 2:35,44).

The Apostle Peter wrote:

“We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” – (2 Peter 1:19-21).

A little further on he wrote:

“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night: in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness. Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness!” – (2 Peter 3:10-13).

With the Flood all the water that was around the earth like a canopy, together with all the fountains of the earth that burst open, covered the earth and formed the sea, covering 70% of the surface of the earth. We are now living on the highlands of the earth that then was. Please read my pamphlet THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH.

Now with this judgment that according to the prophets and our Lord Jesus Himself, is at the very door, this whole process is going to be reversed. With this judgment by fire which is about to strike the earth, all the water of the sea will be sucked back up into the sky, to lay bare the earth as it was before. Just think of all the millions of people who are going to die. (Remember Noahs s warning sounded just as far fetched to the people of his time). The prophets say that the slain of the Lord will lie from one end of the earth to the other (Jeremiah 25:33). Please read my books THE BOOK OF JOEL, HIS PROPHETIC MESSAGE AND WARNING, and THE GREAT TRIBULATION.

The prophet Jeremiah put it this way:

“I beheld the earth, and, lo it was without form, and void: and the heavens, and they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I beheld, and lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. I beheld, and lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by His fierce anger. For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end. For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it!” – (Jeremiah 4:23-28).

The prophet Samuel put it this way:

“And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.” – (2 Samuel 22:16).

The Word says that this CHANGE will come SUDDENLY, like a thief in the night. All that I can say is, we are living now in the signs of those times.
