The Tribulation begins when the Antichrist forges a seven year peace contract between Israel and the Arab nations of the Middle East (Daniel 9:27). But this will be a false peace for Israel, because the Jews will have made “a covenant with death and hell” (Isaiah 28:15). Because the Arab nations still want to eliminate Israel and Russia wants the oil from the Middle East, these nations will form a confederacy to come against Israel (Psalm 83:4-5). Russia is already assembling this coalition.
For this reason it is important to keep an eye on what Russia has to say about oil and energy concerns. Last month, Russian President Dimitry Medvedev said that his nation was “focused on getting hold of energy sources, including in the Middle East.” The chairman of the Russian energy group Gazprom, Alexei Miller, estimates that oil will hit $250 a barrel, providing even more incentive for Russia to find new supplies of oil, a goal Medvedev reiterated Tuesday.

A glance at some headlines from around the world over the last 24 hours shows a continuing tanking economy:
Globalization organizations, such as the Bilderbergs (who met in Greece this month), want to use the global financial mess to usher in one world government, commonly referred to as the New World Order. They will unknowingly use the Antichrist to acheive this goal.
Honestly, I used to think that people who were concerned about groups such as the Bilderbergs, Trilateral Commission, and the Illuminati had too much time on their hands. But when I started to learn more about these groups I was overwhelmed with amazement. The plans they have in place come directly from the Word of God.
- Global government (Daniel 7:23; Revelation 13:7)
- Global rule birthed in Europe (Daniel 9:26)
- Earth ruled by one man (Daniel 7:23; Revelation 13:7)
- Implanted computer chips to track people (Revelation 13:16-18; 14:11)
- Dividing the world into 10 sections (Daniel 7:23; 11:39)
The calls for a world government are coming in from leaders all over the Western hemisphere. This will open the door for the Antichrist to take power, and he will use socialism to gain his world-wide popularity (Daniel 11:24). Programs such as the one that provides free cars to welfare recipients in Massachusetts will become commonplace.

There are a lot of smaller stories in the news today, so instead of making several shorter postings, let’s combine some of the more appropriate stories into one post.
Lebanon wants to keep strong ties with Egypt while Jordan continues to push for Palestinian statehood. Lebanon (Psalm 83:7), Egypt (Daniel 11:40), Jordan (Psalm 83:7), and a Palestinian state (Psalm 83:7) are all part of the Russian confederation that tries to eliminate Israel (Psalm 83:4-5) halfway through the Tribulation (Daniel 9:26-27; Ezekiel 38:11).
North Korea proclaims it has restarted its nuclear facilities and is said to be harvesting plutonium. North Korea is also reprocessing fuel rods at a time when three of its national companies have been blacklisted by the UN for their role in developing ballistic missile technology. North Korea will be one of the Oriental nations to join with China in a march to the Middle East (Revelation 16:12). This follows the Russian led march against Israel mentioned above. In both instances nuclear weapons will be used (Revelation 8:7, 9:18; Isaiah 13:10-13; Joel 2:3, 30; 2 Peter 3:10-12).
Great Britain has announced a plan to monitor every email and listen to every internet phone call that comes through its borders. The Antichrist, who like Great Britain will be part of the EU (Daniel 7:20, 24; 9:26), will use similar technology to monitor and track every human on earth, but at an even deeper level (Revelation 13:16-18), enabling him to gain control over the whole earth (Daniel 7:23; Revelation 13:7). The technology exists for this now, and it is already in use in some instances.
