The inebriated fellow in Hitchcock’s “The Birds” cracks me up with his “It’s the end of the world.” Keith Olbermann mimics this marvelously, and I wrote and told him so when I first heard him use it.

Nobel-winning physicist Michio Kaku in his book “Visions” expressed the thought that if other civilizations did exist elsewhere in the universe, the reason we have not heard from them is the possibility they reached our stage of nuclear “development” and destroyed themselves, a path of destruction not a few scientists and just plain ordinary people are concerned about right now with so many itchy fingers on nuclear triggers. But there is a thought that like Superman escaping his planet before it destructed, Atlantis might have been the home of space immigrants. Unfortunately for planet earth, the “monsters of the Id” as per “Forbidden Planet” would seem to have come with those who founded and built Atlantis if such were the case.

The beginning Chapters of Genesis are amenable to understanding many of the myths and legends surrounding the beginnings of life on earth, and further parts of the Bible give credence to “extraterrestrials.” But the Biblical prophecies, all the eschatological references concerning the End Times?

 Were it not for the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, who knows but Muslims right now would “eradicate” Israel and turn it into glass? But what if a bunker buster should “accidentally” hit the Dome of the Rock? A very interesting scenario for speculation.

Newt Gingrich did not invent WWIII; it has long been the stuff of apocalyptic preaching and a great number of books and films. But for those not familiar with the basic text here it is— Revelation 16:12-16: And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

WWIII was the thought in the minds of many of us who were Biblically knowledgeable, and we were anticipating it from the very moment the State of Israel came into existence. The prophetic scenario seemed plain enough to those of us who knew the Scriptures “able to make one wise unto salvation.” And with the otherwise unthinkable coming to pass, unthinkable to those who did not know or believe God intended to bring such a thing to pass, suddenly after so many centuries there it was: The State of Israel!

However, none can fail to understand that were it not for America the tiny nation of Israel would be doomed. But in order to understand the relationship of America and Israel one must understand the history of the development of Christian Western Civilization that resulted in America being absolutely essential to Israel becoming a nation, and the reason Israel can only continue to exist because of America.

All the university-bred revisionist “histories” cannot dispel the fact that were it not for America’s influence following WWII that vote would not have gone in favor of a “Homeland for Jews.” But were it not for America’s very roots in the Bible, virtually every document and person of note being grounded in the Bible and trusting its influence for good, whether Christian or Deist, an America that would become the one essential thing for Israel becoming a nation would never have happened.

Despite all the arguments against it, the truth of the matter is that America is a nation of the Book, the Bible, and everything leading up to the founding of America has its basis in the Bible. And despite the rocky beginnings of Christianity once all the witches were hung, drowned, or pressed and the heretics burned, for the better part notwithstanding those holdouts like Cotton Mather Christianity became a civilized religion that gave rise to the greatest advances in the arts and sciences the world had ever known. And America would become the preeminent world power as a result of the Bible’s influence throughout.

But at the same time, I am a believer that no good person wants power and authority over others, that those who seek wealth and power over others have made their deal with the Devil in order to attain such positions, that graft and corruption among those that attain power over others and abuse that power to their own ends is a given when you consider who they serve as master.

While the Roman Church long continued to persecute Jews, Protestant theologians eventually began to support the “Chosen People” idea as one in which God’s blessing or cursing would depend on how Christians treated Jews as the “Apple of God’s eye.” In this manner Protestant theologians began to favor Jews as “People of the Book,” though they would be “incomplete Jews” still in need of confessing Jesus as their Messiah.

But it would take another “People of the Book,” Christians with their influence throughout despite the dark motives of the children of the Devil in the process, to make the modern nation of Israel possible; and it would take the centuries dedicated to the progress of doctrine with its civilizing influence to bring into being an America that would make the new nation of Israel possible. And while Satan has a firm grip on education in America today, to deny the evidence of America having its beginnings in the Bible and its very foundation as a Christian nation is to deny the thousands of historic documents to the contrary.

The result of all of this is now playing out on the world scene, and the time will come when people’s hearts will be “failing them for fear,” that they will cry out for the rocks to fall upon them to hide them from the wrath of God to come! The advent of the “bomb” and “Israel,” the nuclear threat of making the “elements melt with a fervent heat,” of the nations of the world opposing America and Israel and gathering themselves together for WWIII, with the purpose of America in all of this now playing out on the world scene is inescapable to those who believe. And for those who do not? There is nothing they can possibly do to prevent what the Bible has declared will happen.

There is a fascinating study going on in Germany called the Neanderthal Genome Project. But scientists from Germany’s Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology engaged in the project admit “There are no firm answers yet about how humans picked up key traits such as walking upright and developing complex language.” Anthropologists believe Neanderthals were “relatively sophisticated” but did not have the higher reasoning functions of what is called “Modern Man.” One scientist speculated some years ago that Neanderthal may not have had the physical capability of intelligible speech, which of itself would have doomed any progress of the species, and as to the chimp genome it “led to literally too many questions, there were 35 million differences between us and chimpanzees — that’s too much to figure out,” Jonathan Rothberg, 454's chairman, said in a telephone interview…

Too much of what evolutionists have successfully propagandized without any scientific validity would have you believe Modern Man and civilization sprang from the mind of their version of Zeus. No, I believe it came about by God’s determinate action, an action that began with war in the heavens brought to earth. And the “end of all things” as the Bible has it and as many like Michio Kaku have cautioned may very well be at hand.

There is no fanaticism to being a child of God, a person to whom believing is as natural as breathing, a person who only wants to live in peace. The fanaticism is all in the Devil’s camp, a fanaticism playing itself out right now among those that preach a doctrine of appeasement leading to the destruction of America and Israel. But while God’s children would far rather live in peace, His children are not fools and God expects those who believe in Him to keep their powder dry, the Father of our country, George Washington proving the point.
