More Historical ParallelsPosted by Lorren on October 30, 2008
My daughter is learning about the early United States, and today we talked about an event that happened across the ocean at around the time that George Washington was being inaugurated as President… The French Revolution.
I’ve heard several people talk about how the police are gearing up to deal with the possibility of rioting on [...]
History Repeats Itself…Posted by Lorren on October 29, 2008
I found this on MSN’s message boards… this is an excerpt from Only Yesterday by Frederick Lewis Allen. They were discussing the article on the Great Depression written by Jim Jubak.
“Speculation was easy-and quick. No long delays while titles were being investigated and deeds recorded; such tiresome formalities were postponed. The prevalent method of [...]
The Government that God WantsPosted by Lorren on October 28, 2008
This election season is pretty hotly contested. A lot of people (on both sides of the political spectrum) are afraid of the outcome. I’m pretty concerned myself.
Today I was reading about the political conditions of Jesus’s day. The ancient Israelites were in a country ruled by pagan Romans. The Jewish people [...]
If It’s Close, Get Ready For A Long Court Battle…Posted by Lorren on October 27, 2008
Most people will say that it looks like Obama is ahead. Could be, but we also have the Bradley effect that is not taken into account in the polls. Nobody knows how high that will be.
Now it has been uncovered that there was widespread voter fraud in the primaries. Shocker! Newsmax [...]
Nero Fiddled While Rome Burned…Posted by Lorren on October 26, 2008
The other day I started reading Currency Wars: How Forged Money is the New Weapon of Mass Destruction. The book seems to be mostly about counterfeiting, although there is some information about the Weimar Republic in it, and that’s the main reason why I decided to check out the book. I figure, if [...]
End Times Headlines This WeekPosted by Lorren on October 24, 2008
Again, I’d like to thank Kalexa over at Homeschoolreviews.com for posting these. The commentary is mine, the headlines were gathered by her.
Police prepare for unrest on election day
~ The last days will be full of violence, as in the days of Noah. It says something about our country if we can’t even vote [...]
Thought Police Visit Obama CriticPosted by Lorren on October 23, 2008
‘Tis the time for campaign phone calls… be careful what you say, at least if you get called up by the Obama campaign. One lady called Barack Obama a socialist and criticized him for locking up babies in closets to die… and the Secret Service arrived on her doorstep accusing her of sending a [...]
What Lies Ahead?Posted by Lorren on
I just finished reading Amity Schlaes’ book, The Forgotten Man. Although it’s more than a year old, it’s a very hot item at our local library right now. I had to request that the library hold a copy for me, and I couldn’t renew it, because there were other people requesting to read [...]
Obama and Roosevelt: Just Ask Joe the PlumberPosted by Lorren on October 21, 2008
I’ve posted previously that our times share a lot of similarities between those of 1929. But there is another potential way that we might be history repeating itself as well… Obama seems to go after those who question him, just as Franklin Roosevelt did.
“Joe the Plumber,” the guy who had been saving up his money [...]
The Public Schools of BabylonPosted by Lorren on October 20, 2008
I love the book of Daniel. It’s got some great prophecy in it regarding the last days… a lot of what seems to be coming true now. It seems that God sent Daniel to live among the Gentiles, and he ended up writing many of the prophecies for the Gentiles.
But I noticed something [...]
