Presents:
The Mother of all Conspiracies
Many Christians are saying:
A meltdown into
another Great Depression is not only possible, but likely
There is a conspiracy to bring on a depression
The Liberals/Socialists policies will cause an economic train wreck
How are Christians to prepare for the coming hard times?
An article by
Kenneth Uptegrove
WHAT THIS ARTICLE
IS ABOUT:
Many prominent economists and theologians tell us a depression is
coming to America. Is a conspiracy behind this coming depression?
Satan’s system is the mother of all conspiracies, and he is using them
to establish his anti-Christ system, wittingly or unwittingly. The
author describes a possible scenario of how Satan can accomplish this
feat, and how God is calling Christians to prepare for this depression
physically, mentally, and spiritually.
This article was written in 2004,
and gets remarkably more prophetic every year!
As of December 30, 2009 this page has been viewed 6,015
times.
When I wrote
this article in 2004 I had no idea how prophetic, how
accurate the descriptions would be as time went by. What I wondered
about for all these years is, what is the hierarchy of Satan's
daughters in the family tree of deceptions he has spawned. Keep in
mind that John 10:10 says,
"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy."
This is Satan's only
plan. See if you can see that hierarchy in Satan's master plan as
you read this article? On July 7, 2009 we updated this article for the first time in almost 5 years. The new material is easy to spot because it is all in this green color.

If you don't believe grandiose conspiracy theories can or will happen, then let me remind you that the Bible already teaches us of a conspiracy to destroy mankind, Christians and Jews, by a Devil and his fallen cohorts. Satan's diabolical scheme has to be the most preposterous conspiracy of all time because Satan isn't even a human living on earth! See, you already believe in this conspiracy theory, so seeing it come about on earth in these end times makes perfect Biblical sense. I always search for well documented and confirmed history that give us the names of the people and what they said and did before I will believe the existence and the plans of any so-called conspiracy. A lot of what we hear is NOT documented and confirmed, it is just hear-say that gives good research a bad name and serves as part of the deception ... misleading information that serves as a diversion to detract from the actual, factual conspiracy.
Satan is a
cunning tyrant whose whole existence is given over to hating,
deceiving, and destroying us. The sole
purpose of spawning these lies is to set in place his powerful
one-world antichrist system.
The best way to hide the source and intent of the mother
conspiracy (conspirator) is to spawn a dozen daughter conspiracies
that (unwittingly and unknowingly) front for, or create a diversion
for the mother conspiracy. The mother conspiracy can stay in the background, never showing her
hand, but forever manipulating all her daughters. Even speaking of
them as a mother and her daughters is deceptive. The truth is, these conspiracies are of their father—Satan
(John 8:44). These conspiracies are actually diverse groups that disagree with each other over many issues, and may not even be aware of the existence of some of their sisters, but they have one thing in common. They have more unity and more oneness in the antichrist spirit than the Church presently does in the Spirit of Christ; and they have had it for a long time. They are united in one common purpose, one powerful force against Christ and the Kingdom of God. Unity and Oneness are powerful words... Beware! When a politician or preacher (anyone in authority) authoritatively and compellingly says you must be in UNITY, you must be ONE ... with THEM if you want things to go well for you ... beware. They are not interested in being in unity or oneness with you or with the God head, but it is you who must be in unity with them. Beware! This is manipulation and control, a form of hypnotism, domination, witchcraft. We will talk about this more...

Hear Ken
talks about this article at length on a three hour talk show The Scripture Reading For This Article 2 Timothy 3
2 Peter 3there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Psalms 12:8"The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men". Satan's ultimate goal is to disrupt and destroy Christendom and all social, political, and economic systems on Earth by putting into place dozens of competing systems. Out of the resulting chaos, fear, and mistrust, he plans to set in place a one-world social, economic, and political system that collectively will become his one-world system. This antichrist system will be brilliant! It will work wonders! And a vast majority of the world’s people will welcome it—for a while. It will not prevail!What I am about to show you comes out of my 2.5 years of training in church history, and as a computer professional since 1965.Though there may exist different streams within the Church, as long as each stream leads to the same River, we are joined in purpose. However, the antichrist system has also infiltrated some areas of Christian thought. (The word "Antichrist" means "in place of Christ" more so than "against Christ.") Even though I am a social and fiscal conservative and of the "religious right," I have observed that some "radical right" thought, especially amongst some "conspiracy theory" proponents, have crossed that line. What Will The One-World Religion Be? Now, let’s go another direction for a minute. The Bible speaks of a one-world religion that will deceive people of every religion on earth in the latter part of the last days. But I think this religion has ALWAYS been the world religion. What can that religion be? It is highly improbable, and seemingly inconceivable that any existing religion (Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Jewish or Christianity, etc.) could convert the whole world to its doctrine, but religions such as Islam would like to force all living humans into submission to their religion. That will be the goal of this false religion, not to convert, but force us to need them in order to survive. How can that be done? Most people of every religion on earth espouse one religion but live another, and the Bible identifies this religion as: The love of money, and the power it brings (to dominate and survive). In a word: Self. Christians whose subliminal God is money shows that they can be seduced and drawn from God. Since the love of money is the world religion, God will cast down this false God, this idol of worship. Therefore it should not surprise us that a worldwide depression is imminent. I think that Bill Clinton (when running for president) was a prophet to the antichrist system/religion when he said, “it is the economy, stupid!” I think the antichrist system is so subtle, so subversive, so wise, but so powerful —all at the same time— that very few are aware of it’s existence. This religion has been around since Adam and Eve were kicked out of the Garden of Eden. A religion is anything you love, admire, and devote most of your attention to. Self-preservation —the survival instinct— is so basic to human nature that we don't think about it, or write about it, or preach sermons on it. That is why the one-world religion can be described as a subliminal, subconscious religion—the perfect conspiracy. We treasure, and are driven, by the gratuitous instinct to survive; and that can be defined as a subliminal, invisible religion. Self preservation, self gratification, self centeredness, self love, self, lust of the flesh, spiritual luke warmness are other ways of describing our subconscious religion as little gods. That was Satan's message to Eve in the Garden; "be your own man, think for yourself, decide for yourself what is good and what is evil ... be your own god. That is what I (Satan) did!" Way too many Christians vote their pocketbook and for the power to dominate. Look at what is generally called Bible believing Christians. They appear to be zealous in their faith, yet way too many vote in diametric contradiction to the Word of God when they vote their pocketbook and forget that they are also voting for abortion, the homosexual agenda, anti-Americanism, and socialism (i.e., the most antichrist and liberal of political candidates). . In other words, when we lose our economic security, we also lose our freedom, and are forced to survive any way we can. I called Bill Clinton a prophet when he was running for president because his, “It’s the economy, stupid” prophecy was fulfilled. The nation believed him... and his subliminal, one-world religion message of self-preservation. I think a world leader is coming who will exploit this self-preservation instinct and will bring this religion to its logical conclusion. And if possible, even some of the very elect will be deceived by this appeal to their pocketbook and personal security. What I wondered about back in 2004 when I wrote this article is, what is the hierarchy of Satan's daughters in the family tree of deceptions he has spawned. Keep in mind that John 10:10 says, "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy." This is Satan's only plan. See if you can see that hierarchy in Satan's master plan as you read this article. This video (part 10 in a series of 12 videos) gives a very up-to-date look at what could not be anticipated in 2004 when I wrote this article. Of Jones' 12 videos (following) the 10th one is the most important one to watch, then the 11th and 12th. The others build the case (1-9) but 10 thru 12 bring it home. What they didn't say in these 12 videos is that New Age power is the force behind what you see in these 12 videos, but Constance Cumbey brings that point home for us in her book, Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow.
O n the one hand this is a gloom and doom message, but on the other hand this is the age (the days just prior to the Second Coming) when the church will come forth in her greatest power, glory, and victory. More on that in a minute…The Adolph Hitler Model The cruel, demented leadership of Adolph Hitler probably directly resulted in more death and destruction than any other single individual in history. The name Hitler will forever be one of the most ugly scars on human history. However, even Churchill acknowledged that if Hitler had died in 1938, he would have been considered one of the greatest leaders of all time.
When Hitler came to power, Germany was suffering under some of the worst economic and political conditions a nation has suffered during modern times. There was between fifty and seventy-five percent unemployment. The government was bankrupt, and the German Mark fell to an exchange rate of actually being worthless. Mobs ruled the streets, perversion was rampant, and the whole nation tottered on the brink of becoming a Soviet state. In just four years, Hitler not only balanced the budget; he paid off the national debt while building the most powerful economy in the world. He brought employment to near one hundred percent. He restored Germany’s national dignity, and built the most powerful army in the world. He also drove pornography and other forms of perversion from the land. There has never been such a transformation of a country in the history of the world. Most of the church in Germany was so fooled by Hitler that they helped establish his power base, with some church leaders actually calling him “a messiah.” But what kind of a messiah was he? What was his religion? The swastika, the main symbol of Nazism, is an age-old Hindu symbol that is still found on many temples throughout India. The word is not even German, but Sanskrit—Svastika—meaning "that which is excellent." A New Age book has described its meaning as representing "the final stage in which the chakra is active, developed, opened, and energized by awakened kundalini energy." Thus, the very banner of Nazism stood for the energy that underlies the whole New Age movement. New Agers even acknowledge this. David Spangler makes reference in one of his books to "...the Nazi movement, which had many roots in occultism." One can also, see the parallel between Nazism and the Ancient Wisdom in the Hindu caste system, with its Brahmin (aryan) caste and its lower untouchable caste. The Nazis also took the term Aryan—literally, the worthy race—from Hinduism. The word has nothing to do with ancient Germany as many believe, but is a Hindu word meaning noble or superior. [Excerpt from, For Many Shall Come In My Name, by Ray Yungen] Hitler was an occultist. Are we doomed to keep repeating history because we fail to learn from history? The Real Reason Why The Antichrist Will Kill Christians Christians know Lucifer to be Satan, the Adversary, and II Thessalonians 2:9 informs us that Satan is the one who will empower the Antichrist. Those defying the Antichrist will really be defying Satan—and they will suffer dearly for it. Persecution and death is predicted in the Bible for those who won't fall into line during the Antichrist's rule. The parallel between what the Bible says about this period and the statements above are striking. The following prophecies reveal what is in store for those who will preach the real Jesus Christ and the Gospel of the true kingdom during this time. Jesus said in Matthew 24:9:
"They" are the many who are coming in His name claiming to be "christs." Revelation says of this period:
The following verse lends credence that this will be on an individual spiritual basis:
This implies that a family member or a friend may be turned over to be dealt wither their aim good. It will be seen as an altruistic act. This view would most likely infuriate anyone involved with or attracted to New Age spirituality. After all, nowhere do you find New Agers saying they are going to kill anybody. It is left rather vague about how anyone will be removed. But the following channeled words by Neale Donald Walsch's "God" explain the rationale for what most people would consider outrageous and impossible. Listen to his "God":
This is a very revealing statement. Traditional morality has been virtually turned on its head here. In other words, according to the higher consciousness that Walsch is in tune with, killing people could actually be doing them a favor! But would Walsch think this is profound higher wisdom if he himself was shivering sick and starving in a cattle car bound for Auschwitz. Would he have a smile on his face if he were stripped naked and herded into a gas chamber to face a gruesome, agonizing death? I think not! [Excerpt from, For Many Shall Come In My Name, by Ray Yungen]
Three Related
Spiritual Groups That Number In The Billions
You may be surprised to hear that at least two other spiritual groups (besides the New Agers) that number in the billions also see a dire need to eventually kill/neutralize those who don't convert to their false god. You already know one of them ... Islam. The other spiritual group is the Dominionists. Most Evangelical Christians never heard that word, but there is over a billion of them alive today, and they are in your town and probably in your family and you didn't even know it. In fact they are growing in numbers faster than Christianity, so they can overcome us by sheer population growth. The shocking truth is, the number of true Christians are diminishing while these other three groups are growing in number ... rapidly. How can that be? Do you suppose that we are seeing Bible prophecy come to pass that says we will see a great falling away in the end time.All three groups teach that total unity in this unholy spirit must come to all mankind world wide in order to bring essential unity and oneness to the Antichrist's One World system. But Jesus will come and destroy this Antichrist and his system(s) in one day (at Armageddon) and bring His Saints with Him who are in unity with the Holy Spirit to form a one world government under King Jesus. I refer you to my article called The New Age Deception for more detailed information.
Who are the Dominionists? Most denominations that are Postmillennial (Historists) or Amillennial (Preterists) are also Dominionists. I have several articles on this subject at http://www.arkhaven.org/apostolic_reformation_deception.htm. The largest Dominionist spiritual group is the Catholic church. History records the power and purpose of Dominionism during the Inquisition (It lasted from 1560 to 1812 though in Europe it ended by 1774. (briefly restarted in 1778)) when over 50 million Christians were killed for rejecting the Pope.
Lou Engle's Look At The Dark Side of Dominionism
Ever wondered where the ecumenical movement is going? The antichrist is Caesar, the leader of the revived ’Rome’. This new apostolic church, of course, with the false prophet mouthpiece and its signs and wonders is joined at the hip with Rome (beast one and beast two) – (ever wondered why so many of the new prophets are in the Roman Catholic illuminati Knights of Malta?), becomes the one world religion as so many have been apparently converted to the Latter Rain ’Christ’ and the new apostle’s religion in the revival – most won by signs and wonders they do not test done under the power of the antichrist, the others won over or threatened by persuasive force. It is essential to them for the church to be unified as one, under their apostles, or they think their corporate Christ cannot be fully incarnated (manifested) in the Church and give his power to conquer the whole world. So there will be more than pressure applied on those individuals and churches who will not join in with the apostles – but more on that later. They claim there will be a worldwide revival with amazing healings, signs and wonders and miracles by elite overcomers – winning an endtime harvest of billions of souls, where the majority of the world, they say will be won to Christ and the kingdom would be established or ready to be received by Christ. It does not seem to matter whether converts or won or forced. “It will be said of the apostles soon to be anointed that they have turned an upside down world right side up. Nations will tremble at the mention of their name.” (Rick Joyner, said in 1988, not that long before the new apostles under C Peter Wagner were ‘anointed’) The army – Joel’s Army – won’t just love people into the kingdom – they will be militant, thinking themselves the enforcers of God’s will on earth, ruling with their rod of iron. Spiritual warfare becomes literal, the church having become accustomed and softened to the militaristic and Dominionist talk through spiritual warfare and worship songs. They will say that as all those that oppose them are opposing God (as they as perfect god-men are God), and are permanently lost because of then, then killing them is no big deal anyway, or perhaps it will be viewed as God executing his ‘final’ judgment on unbelievers, as they are God remember. I am not making this up – this comes from their own writings. “They won’t be able to kill this army.” (Jack Deere) “Those in this army will have the kind of anointing … this kind of power … anyone who wants to harm them must die.” (John Wimber – yeah, I was shocked when I read ‘pussy-cat’ Wimber said this. As speaking against the new apostles is seen as harming – ‘touch not my anointed, nor do my prophets any harm’ as so frequently misquoted to keep dissenters quiet and in their place – all that oppose this Antichrist force even by speaking out ’must die’ by divine intervention – that is their intervention. The opposers, the remnant church will be killed. Nice! Still want to follow this wonderful revival of Todd Bentley, folks? Joel’s army in scripture far from being the Lord’s endtime army, are a devastating dark army that destroys and devours God’s people. It comes from the King of the North – that is Babylon – that is Rome. So Paul Cain yet again actually testifies with scripture what their schemes are – antichrist – for they testify that is what they are, this army. Even if we did not know it already by their blasphemies, heresies and ecumnicism, we know it here. (Elsewhere it is prophesied that Joel’s army has feet of mixed iron and clay – again this is Daniel’s vision of the antichrist ‘empire’ the persecutor comes from (Rome and the mixed nations, so yet again they testify against themselves!) And of course scripture does not predict an end time revival like this, it predicts an end time apostasy, a great falling away and a great persecution of the Saints. But the Latter Rain doesn’t mention the antichrist in their theology, it can’t – because they are the antichrist (if they get their way)!
Why The World Will Accept
2 Kings 17:33, "They feared the Lord, but served their own gods." We have a nation where the overwhelming majority of the people declare the name of the Lord. Many even claim to be born again, and they actually may be, but the same ones give themselves to serving many other gods. When it comes down to choosing between death and survival, the survival instinct in all of us will compel many to overrule our social, economic, political, and religious belief system. Most people will choose to survive at any cost. If possible, even professing believers may choose survival over death, perhaps for the sake of their children. Look at the Joseph scenario. By the time the seven years of famine were over, ALL the people chose to sell themselves as slaves of Pharaoh for wheat to survive on. But fortunately, Joseph was benevolent. The coming world dictator will seem to be a benevolent messiah, but will ultimately show himself to be a malevolent dictator. The book of Revelation describes him as a credible and charismatic leader when he first comes on the world scene. He will most likely claim to be the expected messiah of every major religion on earth. Maitreya fits this description and is already on the scene, but is he actually the Antichrist? How might Satan accomplish this seemingly impossible goal of world domination? A Massive World-Wide Depression Is Coming (i.e., The Mother Of All Depressions) If you had asked an Amish man during the last depression how he and the Amish community was fairing, he would have asked, “What depression?” Many people lost everything during the last depression and some committed suicide, but others made a fortune. There is a way to not only survive and live well, but in past depressions you could actually make a fortune if you planned ahead properly. During the last depression a lot of people who lived off the land (farmers), and had no debt, came through with very little loss. But the federal government and some banks were able to file foreclosure on millions of houses and acres of land. After the depression was over they were then able to rent, lease, or sell all these holdings and made a vast fortune off of them. In recent years David Wilkerson has been warning us about this coming depression, and wrote two excellent books on the subject. They are titled:
Long before Wilkerson wrote those books I was teaching that a massive worldwide depression is coming. It could be so severe that there will be no paycheck for anyone, not even the military, police, or government officials.

Pastor Rod Parsley digs into the evil created by the international bankers We have posted a video that contains an amazing sermon given in Sept 2003 by Pastor Rod Parsley at Breakthrough Church in Columbus Ohio. This powerful presentation by Pastor Parsley digs into the evil that surrounds the American landscape as created by the international bankers. View the video presentation at http://www.pacinlaw.org/media/conquering_debt.php Consider This Scenario In my lifetime, America has gone through a depression and several wars. Three of those wars were on this continent. And even as you read this message, millions of Christians in China and other nations are under terrible tribulation, persecution, and martyrdom this very day. In my lifetime around fifty million Christians have been martyred. To say another war or depression can't happen in America is not being realistic. But to say we should prepare for such an eventuality ... as best we can ... is realistic. Consider this scenario. Let’s say that the foolishness of the world system causes a major depression that the Antichrist can take advantage of. But let’s say God complicates Satan’s plans and makes the depression much worse by bringing on several “natural disasters.” Look at the damage Katrina and Mt. St. Helen did to our economy. Deadly flue epidemics, hurricanes, volcanoes, earthquakes, droughts, floods, tsunamis, terrorist attacks, and wars can cause an economic disaster. National debt and unemployment due to manufacturing going to other countries, or a combination of all the above could cause an economic collapse. Put the domino effect into play with enough dominos falling—tink-tink-tink—and we have the potential to bring down the world economy…the worst depression in history. Under such conditions there would be little to no money for food or gas. Total anarchy can potentially reign in many areas for a few months until local (National Guard, Para-military groups?) leaders can bring order to their areas, and then begin to rebuild the nation. Millions could possibly die pitiful deaths in the USA and the world because they were not ready for such a disaster, and felt like they had no warning whatsoever. The warning signs were ignored. How could a worldwide economic depression further Satan’s plans for planet Earth? Consider these possibilities:
If God complicates their plans and makes the depression much worse by bringing on several “natural disasters,” that could thwart the Antichrist's ability to:
On a more positive note, here are some other things that might be brought to an end during this depression. We haven't been able to close the abortion clinics through government and the legal system, but watch this depression close the lucrative abortion mills. And watch other abominable things cease overnight ... TV ... movies ... magazines, and on and on. Not only will the grocery stores close, but so will the courts and the military posts, and everything else you can think of that takes money to operate. This is all speculation, and a lot of writers will disagree with me. The point I hope to make is, we need to know how to pray, how to vote, and how to prepare physically, mentally, and spiritually for the age we are coming into. In short, Americans needs to turn to God. A New Monetary System I believe this is the time a false savior will come on the scene to restore the economy with a new monetary system. I predict that this monetary system will be digital money (accessed by computer or an ID card with a chip in it?) in individual bank accounts that can be accessed on the world-wide-web (WWW). Since this digital money is not backed up with anything but faith in the system (much like our paper money today), a huge amount of credits in these personal accounts can be provided to every household on earth. For a while we can all buy, sell, and trade using this miraculous monetary system…until the world economy is stable again. As with any Internet provider, a contract and password will be needed. And after the economy is restored, the password can evolve into "the mark of the beast" (spoken of in the book of Revelation). My wife told me recently that Chuck Missler said years before I did that American banks will convert to using digital money some day. We are reading a new book on the market (summer of 2010), Aftershock ... Protect Yourself and Profit in the Next Global Financial Meltdown, by David Wiedemer, Robert Wiedemer, and Cindy Spitzer. On page 185 they say "...The next step in the evolution of money will be the development of an international agency (the global equivalent of a international central bank) that manages a single international currency that is entirely electronic." The whole 8th is on this subject. These authors predicted all the bubble meltdowns in the past few years, so their credibility is established, and their warnings should be heeded. In the Babylon 5 TV series (and movies) planet earth had a World President and the world monetary system was called credits. I think I have observed that the Beast system feels compelled to tell who they are and what they are going to do, and they often reveal themselves in movies and TV series. The Star Gate TV series is another example of this. David Eells says in the second paragraph in his article found at http://www.unleavenedbreadministries.org/?page=citiesrefuge, “I believe that before the middle of the tribulation when the mark is imposed many will have escaped to places of refuge.” Obviously Eells is not pre tribulation rapture, but mid or post. His comments on places of refuge are in agreement with my articles and below comments on Christian Community. The point being, if Eells is correct, then we can buy and sell up until the time of the catching away. And by his thinking we can expect the economy to start to recover just prior to this time. Also, we can see a possible model for this in Hitler's seeming miracle in their German economy before WWII (as described above).
I Say it is Time to Prepare For Hard Times Wisdom says, get off the grid before the grid goes off.
So, what can we do to prepare ourselves (physically, mentally, and spiritually) for such a time? One of the basic characteristics of those whose lives have been established on the Kingdom of God, is that they will have peace and come alive, even thriving during times of trouble. This is because they have been prepared to live in the greatest time of trouble the world has ever known. They prepared by building their lives on the Kingdom, not on the things of this world that are so easily shaken.Many Christians are being called to prepare for such a time by way of a self-sufficient Christian community that does not need to buy, sell, or trade to live comfortably. And most importantly, such communities can serve as a refugee camp. The Amish have lived a self-sufficient (outside the system) lifestyle for centuries, and we can expand upon their model (even though we are not Amish) to receive hurting people. CLICK HERE to read about my wife (Lora) and my plans to set up our Christian community—the ArkHaven Community of Intentional Neighbors. WHY: The Lord disciplines those whom He loves, and great discipline will come upon the United States because of God's love for our nation. The ArkHaven Christian community anticipates the coming of troubled times happening BEFORE the official "Great Tribulation" comes. As I said earlier, millions of Christians in China and other nations are under terrible tribulation and persecution and martyrdom on this very day. To say it can't happen in America is not being realistic. But to say we should prepare for such an eventuality as best we can is realistic. It will take a lot of Godly wisdom to know what to prepare for, and how to prepare for it. Understanding how to prepare will take Christians like you receiving a revelatory word from God, and then being obedient to move on the direction God has given you. I (Kenneth Uptegrove) am reporting on what my wife (Lora) and I feel God has shown us, and many others. HOW: Providing our own food, water, power and septic system, such as....
WHERE: In the North West corner of Arkansas, preferably in either Washington or Benton county. To read more about this concept and plan for Christian Community go to www.arkhaven.org/arkhaven_christian_community.htm . This website shows a map that locates other ideal areas in the continental USA to establish a community like ours, and to find a lot more information than this article contains. PROTECTION: The first question that always comes up is, how do we intend to protect our campus from marauders. We will depend upon the Lord for His divine protection and provision as He promised Moses, Joseph, Noah, and many others. There will be no barbwire fences, and gun towers, or armed guards in uniform. No David Koresh compound stuff. And since we are solidly main stream Evangelical, there will be no Jim Jones stuff. We will welcome all who come needing help, therefore there will be no need for anyone to feel like they need to kill us and take over the campus. BIBLE PRECEDENT: These precedents need little introduction. · Moses showed us that we must accept the possibility that we may eventually and ultimately be living by miracles alone as his people did in the wilderness. God provided them with physical protection, provision, and promise. · Joseph is another model for us. He had seven good years to prepare Egypt and his family for seven bad years. Whatever time we have left we need to be preparing for the eventuality of the coming bad years, however many years that may be in the future. · Noah was instructed by God to prepare a place (Ark) that was totally self-sufficient, so he and his family could survive the flood. The Ark was God's place of promise, provision and protection. ArkHaven was named after the Ark model, but incorporates the insight these three models give us. You can read more about our name and vision at www.arkhaven.org/the_arkhaven_story.htm.· 2 Timothy 3:1 “But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.” IN CONCLUSION: No matter what your or my eschatology is, the scenario I have presented to you today, will prove to be accurate—but not exact. As always, we will need to hear from God, and be obedient to His instructions on a daily basis, rather than depending on an eschatological teaching or some leader we look up to. Not all Christians will be called to join a Christian community. David Wilkerson talks about other callings in the two books I mentioned earlier. But we all must ask God if what was said in this article is from Him or not. And if you sense that God is telling you, “Yes, it is,” then you need to ask Him what He would have you do to prepare for this coming time. I always search for well documented and confirmed history that give us the names of the people and what they said and did before I will believe the existence and the plans of any so-called conspiracy. A lot of what we hear is NOT documented and confirmed, it is just hear-say that gives good research a bad name and serves as part of the deception ... false, misleading information that serves as a diversion to detract from the actual, factual conspiracy. I recommend this well documented history lesson video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2134284036772812990&hl=en
