"There's A Giant Asteroid Headed Our Way!"

Though a possible collision between Earth and a giant asteroid on Friday the 13th sounds like a Hollywood blockbuster starring Bruce Willis...it is not.

On April 13, 2029, Asteroid 99972, aka Apophis (the 'Egyptian God of Chaos'), an asteroid that "appeared" to be on a collision course with Earth's orbital path (but now isn't) will come uncomfortably close to our planet. (Close, but no cigar, according to NASA).

Discovered in 2004, the initial calculations of this "Near Earth Object" (NEO) were that there was a small but very real possibility that it would strike Earth some where in the Atlantic Ocean with the explosive force of 880 million tons of TNT and be 65,000 times more destructive than Hiroshima or any tsnami ever recorded.

Since then, the expected trajectory has been recalculated, refigured, and retracted.

NASA now says it will fly harmlessly by.

Others say, "Not so fast NASA." Impact cannot be completly ruled out given:

1. How extremely close to the earth this asteroid comes, and
2. there are several years worth of unknown gravitational effects that could change its trajectory.

Apophis is projected to come within 19,400 miles of Earth-that puts it within range of satellites and space stations, and during the 2029 flyby, it will be close enough to be visible to the naked eye.

So, just because Apophis will be closer than any other sizeable asteroid in recorded history, and even a tiny change in trajectory could spell disaster-there's absolutely no reason for alarm.

NASA says everything's A-OK, and since a government agency would never lie to us-we need to believe them...after all, lying to avoid public panic only happens in the movies.

A wise man once said: "Jesus promises 'signs' in several places. And yet in some ways, we don't really need them. Would you act differently if you saw a sign today that the end was near? If so, repent and begin following Jesus with your whole life"-- ConnectUs, Editor-in-Chief

"And there shall be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring, men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens  will be shaken" (LUKE 21:25-27).

"DHS Warns of 'Mass Casualty Violence' This Summer"

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a 'heightened threat advisory' last week, warning of an increased risk of 'mass casualty violence' nationwide.

The reason? The Supreme Court decision that may overturn Roe v. Wade is expected to be released this month and while the mainstream media ignores the potential threat, law enforcement is quietly preparing.

Pro-abortion activists have promised a 'Summer of Rage' and to become 'ungovernable' if the Supreme Court fails to uphold Roe v. Wade. 

Last month, hundreds of thousands of pro-choice marchers took to the streets across the nation in what they called "the kick off to the Summer of Rage."

Since then, Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh's house has been the epicenter, where protesters regularly gather outside to scream into megaphones and beat on drums. One even made a clumsy attempt to assassinate him.

The irony? If Roe v. Wade is overturned, nothing really changes. The power to ban or allow abortion returns to state legislatures. It lets the people decide state by state.

Apparently, that's not good enough. The pro-abortion group Jane's Revenge is declaring it "open season on pro-life groups and crisis pregnancy centers". They encourage all with the "urge to paint, to burn, to cut, to jam" to join their cause "because it's fun and easy," they proclaim.

Fun? Hard to imagine. Easy? Sure seems like it.

One of the signs of the end times is that 'lawlessness' in society will become pervasive. Hear the words of Jesus as He mentions this fact in His message about end time events:

"And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold" (MATTHEW 24:12).

Lawlessness, a complete disregard for law, "will abound". In other words, it will be common, pervasive, on the news, in the streets, and in the governments worldwide, all at the same time.

Are we there yet? Let your Bible be your guide.

A wise man once said: "The prophecies in the Old Testament concerning Israel being dispersed throughout the whole earth, and then after 2,000 years, returning back to their land to be established once again as a nation were fulfilled in 1948. And so the fulfillment of prophecies concerning the End Times began." - Evidence to Believe

"And I will bring them (Israel) out from the peoples and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them into their own land" (EZEKIEL 34:13).

"Nobody's Perfect"

With the world racing from one crisis to another, people are beginning to wake up to the very real possibility that Bible prophecy is coming to pass.

Answers to the larger problems of the world and to the unprecedented conditions in our nation, seem elusive. 

 Some are even asking The Big Questions like: what will happen to me personally if what the Bible says turns out to be true...and what about the life to come...is there really an afterlife?

Our advice? Proceed with caution.

Google "The Afterlife" and you'll find hundreds of pages of mostly disinformation. Take "the Afterlife Conference", for instance, which offers:

"Expanded training in out-of-body exploration, where shamans break bread with scientists...And if you ever wondered what happens when our life on earth is over, The Afterlife Conference will answer all your questions...and more!" (or so the  Afterlife Conference claims).

Yes indeedy, friends and neighbors, according to the Afterlife Conference and their "skilled" facilitators, we too can have all the answers...(and more!). If "death-midwifery", after-death communication, or new and improved meditation practices are what you're looking for-then look no further-this conference has all that...(and more!).

But are their wild claims true? 

Not if we believe God's Word.

Christian website Got Answers.org puts it this way: "The existence of life after death is a universal question. Job speaks for all of us by stating: 

"Man born of woman is of few days and full of trouble. He springs up like a flower and withers away; Like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure...if a man dies, will he live again? (JOB 14:1-2,14)

Like Job, all of us have been challenged by these questions: Exactly what happens to us after we die? Do we simply cease to exist? Does everyone go to the same place, or do we go to different places?"

"According to the Bible, you have two options to choose from when it comes to deciding where you will spend your life after death," says Greg Laurie, Senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship.

1. Heaven
2. Hell

"Interestingly enough," says Laurie, "while there seems to be an increased belief in a place called hell, most people don't believe they are headed there. Instead, they believe that hell is reserved for only the most hardened of criminals and other "evil" elements of our society."

Not true and Laurie explains why: "God's Word judges people by a different set of criteria. You are not sent to hell for being a bad person any more than you are sent to heaven for being a good person.

"Only perfect people can go to heaven and there are no perfect people. Romans 3:23 says all have sinned and sin separates us from God. Clearly, people (all people) have a problem.

 "But God solved our problem by sending His Son to bridge the gap between sinful man and perfect God'" Laurie said.

"While God clearly says that those who reject the salvation offered through His Son will spend eternity separated from Him,  God repeatedly gives each person ample opportunity to choose life-abundant life on earth and eternal life in heaven. (see 2 Peter 3:9).

"No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love Him"   (1 CORINTHIANS 2:9).

So even as the world grows darker and more chaotic, the follower of Christ can have peace, knowing there's an unimaginably wonderful place prepared for all those who choose God's way.

A wise man once said: "Although we will all be eventually resurrected, not everyone will go to heaven. A  choice must be made by each person in this life, and this choice will determine one's eternal destination." -- quote taken from Got Questions.org: "Is There Life After Death?"

"And all who believe in God's Son have eternal life.. Those who don't obey the Son will never experience life, but the wrath of God remains upon them." (JOHN 4:36).

"Economic Forecast: 'Hurricane' Warning"

The wild stock market swings of recent days have left investors gasping and with good cause.

Does the age-old "Buy & Hold" mantra still apply?

Based on historical performance the answer is 'Yes'...however some see things differently:

Financial expert Bill Holter says the "ability to prevent a crash no longer exists."

"The system has gotten too big...there's too much debt. Too many sovereign governments have bumped up against debt saturation. In the U.S., we are over 100% debt to GDP."

"You can't fix debt with more debt-but that's what they keep trying to do," he said. "What we need is a complete reset."

Holter's advice? If we get a bounce in the market, use it to get out.

Chris Martenson, of Peak Prosperity, has these words of wisdom: "What goes up must come down-and that's especially true for the world's many poorly-constructed financial bubbles, built out of nothing more than gauzy narratives and inflated with "hopium".

"Markets are quite possibly in crash mode right now, although events are unfolding so quickly-currency spikes, equity sell-offs, emerging markets routs, dislocations and commodity swings-that it's hard to tell for sure. However, that's usually the case right before and during big market declines," say Martenson.

'Further, most of the gains in financial assets engineered by the central banks were false and destined to burst because they were based on bubble technology, not actual returns."

Reknown geopolitical and financial cycle expert, Charles Nenner says his analysis shows global conditions will go from bad to worse for many years to come. Wars will be up, stocks will be down, the price of oil will continue to escalate along with inflation. Nenner also expects food shortages and if that's not enough-civil unrest.

Meanwhile, Jamie Dimon says JPMorgan Bank is bracing for a financial "hurricane."  And he's not the only big banker worried.

So does that mean we should be worried too? 

No. It means we should be "anxious for nothing" (Phil. 4:5) and thank God for our 'umbrella' of faith.

A wise man once said: "Most of the world is now living through an especially tough period. Long ago, God told us how to flourish in dark times. His answer to our dilemma stands as a brilliant point of light especially right now...God's answer is to know Him. May all our hearts be enlightened to the breathtaking hope of His calling, the astounding riches of His glorious inheritance, and the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe." --
