Imagine--TEOTWAWKI

         "I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:". Psalms 78 vs 2,[KJV]. Imagine, the end of the world as we know it, or TEOTWAWKI,as it's referred to by those who are fervently preparing for the coming apocalypse. While I am a firm believer in being prepared for any God given calamity i.e. storms floods, earthquakes and the like, yet there must be a word of caution issued to those who insist on having everything possible to ensure their survival.                                                                                                                                            
          That word is found in Ecclesiastes 9 vs 12,"For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare: so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them." Or how about the parable Christ spoke of, of the man who had everything to his hearts content, said he would build a bigger and better warehouse to enjoy his wealth when God decided to call him up?                                                                                                                                    
          Now I have nothing against being prepared. Preparedness has always seemed to become a second instinct to survival dating back to the days after the flood . In the book of Genesis chapter 10 we find that the men of that era decided to build a tower up into heaven[the skies],for fear of being scattered, another underlying reason was to seek a way to escape future flood waters. We are all fascinated with survival stories that have occurred in real life, like the true story of a little boy by the name of Jason White, whose father fell off the fishing boat they were both on and drowned, leaving Jason adrift for over 22 days  a couple hundred miles away from shore until a German Liner fished him up out of the sea. Or of airplane wrecks in the Andes Mountains and the survivors having to turn cannibals and eat the dead flesh of those who perished in order to live. Even the fictional "Life of Pi seemed fascinating.                                                                                                                                                              
           What won't be mentioned are those who risk life and limb to climb rocks or mountains simply because they are there, after all, who feels sorry for the snake charmer who in enticing the Cobra snake makes a mistake and is bit? Is there a great confrontational, catastrophic, cataclysmic change ahead of mankind? Yes, and to have some semblance of preparedness is only common sense. How can we increase the odds for our surviving this earth shattering change? Begin to draw closer to God above. Who else can give you the power over fire? Did not the God of Daniel protect Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego from the power of fire in ancient Babylon? Imagine, some may say that was ancient man made fire not the present day heat of nuclear fission. The belief in God has always had man do the supernatural, because the God of Abraham.Isaac and Jacob is a supernatural being. With so many nations having nuclear capabilities, along with nations like Iran and Korea [north], it will only be a matter of time before the inevitable, thermonuclear war.                                                            
            Previously, in other blogs,we've shown that by using the imagination, it is very likely that most if not all the planets orbiting the sun in our solar system, were previously inhabited at some point in time or other. Now imagine, for all the preppers out there, that a thermonuclear event occurred what and where would you be? Do you think that you would get warning in time to protect yourself and family? One must also bear in mind that modern society with it's dependency upon nuclear energy, has major threats to it's stability,i.e. man made mistakes in the operating of these plants can lead to serious catastrophes like Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. So, would you happen to have an handy dandy radiation suit nearby to put on? and whatever gas mask you have or breathing apparatus, would it suffice for the untold amounts of toxic gasses in the air floating around? Personally, I don't think so. For instance consider the double rings of  the planet Saturn.Can it be a far fetched idea that these occurred from some sort of nuclear incidence in a bygone era?, leaving the planet uninhabited with those rings of toxic dust to circulate the planet by its own gravity?                                                
             Since the end of the world is the subject matter here, lets examine two of my pet peeves that are certainly contributing to the planets demise, and of which we all are guilty unless you live in middle earth with hobbits or are living on the moon, the pollution of the planets waters and the invention of Plastic. The residue of everything we use to exist and promote our own hygiene in today's world has toxins in them and eventually gets washed into streams, rivers, lakes and oceans.                                                                                                                                    
           This also includes plastic. At first glance it may seem to be a boon to mankind but upon further examination this thing called plastic is hastening our very demise. At first glance this thing seemed innocuous, passed of at it's first discovery and usage as a way to eliminate paper bags and save the trees. Years later we find that plastic is not bio degradable, that the various chemicals made to differentiate between hard and soft plastic is also detrimental to our health. Bear in mind that water is the great dissolver  and the most soluble of all liquids, and just where do we find 'spring water' sold every where? In plastic bottles. The insidious use of plastic has taken over practically every form of food handling , in the which may I remind you that these plastics leech out invisible toxins and gases that permeate the very foods they are wrapped up to protect. Want proof? leave fruit or escallions in plastic in the refrigerator for a day or two and see for yourself the rapid deterioration of them.                                                                                                                                  
            Plastic is now the norm for a whole lot of sodas, and with their high acid content rest assured that the recipients are also drinking minuscule parts of plastic with some soda pop.Plastic is now also standard for certain brands of cooking oil,certain types of liquor, bread, cakes,butter,all the meats purchased at the supermarket including cold cuts,the list is almost endless.For the complete list of chemicals that are poisoning our planet check out the book "Poisoned Profits-The Toxic Assault On Our Children".                                                                                                                                                    
           Yes indeed, a nuclear holocaust is near and very likely inevitable, my advise is to prepare best as you can, just make sure you get closer to the Creator of the heavens and this earth, it maybe you'll have a chance at surviving the coming day of Judgement. And for the skeptics that find it hard to believe that there are other intelligent life forms in the Universe, check this out, Hebrew chap 1 vs 1-2 "God,who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds. [KJV]. Please note the plural worlds as in more than one.The days of thinking that the earth[world] is flat, and that man is alone in the Universe is long gone, and I stand by my theories concerning the planets stars and other life forms that the Lord God has created.
