 There are troubled days ahead for the Middle East and America. It is not like this nation really deserves anything less. The Marxists could never have taken over our educational system, the media, our government and even many of our churches if those that call themselves Christians in this nation really believed, lived a Christian lifestyle and kept a Christian worldview. Continue Reading… Its already August and time for my second monthly perspectives article. In case you got here by a search engine with a keyword search these perspectives are posted on the World Trends and Bible Prophecy Blog of Don Koenig. There is a category on the side bar and a tag on the bottom of this post that will bring you to prior monthly perspectives. Continue Reading… There are many parallels to the 1930′s today. History does repeat itself. It seems the socialists of the 1930′s have been reincarnated to play in the upcoming 2010′s world war games. In the 1930′s the world was heading into a decade of deep depression. All indicators are that in the 2010′s the world will see the same economic fate. In the 1930′s socialism was the big rising ideology. There were some differences between the various socialisms of the 1930′s but they all had many similarities as well, such as government having control over everyone and the redistributing wealth. There was the Hitler’s style, the Lenin/Stalin’s style, Mussolini’s Fascist style, Mao’s style and even FDR’s New Deal style. Continue Reading… Anyone else getting the feeling that any remaining sanity on earth is rapidly evaporating because of anthropic global warming? I am not talking about the global warming delusion produced by Al Gore. I am talking about the global warming reality that is produced by the hot heads and air heads of the world. Continue Reading… I know Immanuel Velikovsky used the same title for one of his books but most of this generation would not be aware of that. Immanuel Velikovsky wrote several books about catastrophism in Earth’s geological past. His theory of planets in collision gives natural causes for the flood and the other judgments in the Bible. If you reject evolution you might read his books because there is a lot of truth in what he wrote, but even geniuses like Velokosvsky do not get everything right. He certainly did not acknowledge that God also works through supernatural means. His theory of “planets in collision” most likely has some validity especially since his theories were rejected by most of the scientific world. Much of the scientific world could not find the truth of the earth’s true past if the truth came out of orbit and hit them over the head. That is why we get silly scientific support for shear nonsense like macro evolution and anthropic global warming. Continue Reading… After reading the latest news report on Fox News about Iran’s nuclear progress and the doubts that the Obama approach will stop Iran , I have come to the conclusion that Obama is not serious about sanctions. The facts are that Obama and his cronies continue to obstruct any meaningful sanctions on Iran. Obama may actually want Israel to attack Iran for reasons I will get into shortly. Continue Reading… The great Islamic world war between Sunni and Shiite Muslims could be God’s answer to the invasion of Psalm 83 Some think Islam is the primary danger to the Western world and even think that Islam will bring the Antichrist against the West. The flaw in their thinking goes beyond correct understanding of Bible prophecy. They gloss over the deep division that exists between the Sunni Muslims and the Shiite Muslims. A house divided will not stand. Continue Reading… I certainly am not a prophet but I believe we are in the final decades just before the Messianic age and Millennial Kingdom of Yeshua. In fact, I think there will only be three more decades. Sometime before the end of that third decade I think Yeshua (Jesus) will have returned to earth to set up His Millennial kingdom. Continue Reading… Like many fellow Bible prophecy students, for a couple of years I took the position that Israel or the United States will bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities “any day now” The bombing in my mind was imminent. If you remember many thought that Bush would do it before the election primaries and then before the election and then before leaving office. If anyone was going to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities the best time to have done so was before Iran acquired the nuclear know how. However, that did not happen. Continue Reading… I pray for the families of all who died as a result of the Fort Hood shootings may God comfort you in your time of great sorrow and loss. I also pray for the wounded. May God heal and and restore you. I also want to honor all the heroes that were involved in saving others at great risk to themselves. I hope they will be formally honored by our nation as the heroes that they proved to be. You can read about the story of some of the heroic acts at the Fort Hood shooting here. It really does not surprise me that a mass shooting at an Army base would bring out many heroes. Our military men and women are doing heroic acts every day. Continue Reading… Many in Islam and the Far left have fascism and hatred of Jews and Christians in common. You might wonder how that might be, since some of the top leaders of the Far Left are Jews. Ever heard of Judas? There seems to be a Judas tribe among the Jews. I think this was foretold in a Bible prophecy about the tribe of Dan. Continue Reading… It is interesting times in Iran these days. When 1 in 6 of all Iranians take part in the demonstrations in the streets of Tehran in rage against the fraudulent election results you know things are a changing in Iran. The Iranian people are taking to the streets knowing that they will be in danger from the Islamofascists running the nation. Their Islamic taskmasters are even using foreign hired Arab thugs to put fear in the people. You can be sure when city streets are totally filled with people that things are soon likely to change. Read Joel Rosenbergs take on these Iranian events. Continue Reading… Frontpage did a great interview with Fr. Zakaria Botros on the teachings of Muhammad. For those wondering why Islam will collapse and will not be the Beast of Revelation I think this article indirectly gives us part of the answer. The whole foundations of Islam are built on the babblings of a mentally ill demon possessed person. Sooner or later Muslims are going to come to know what their own scriptures say and see that much of Muhammad said is contradictory and demented. The main reasons why Islam is spreading now and is a threat to the world is due to four factors: Continue Reading… Things are getting pretty crazy out there to say the least so I think I will give you my world trends forecast for 2010-2020 AD. I think the next decade will be the most violent decade since the days of Noah. The only decade that will exceed it in violence will be decade of Jacob’s trouble which will probably begin sometime in the 20′s. Here is a glimpse of some of the things I think we can expect in 2010-2020. I am not a prophet. They certainly do not have to occur just because I think they might. They are not in any specific sequence. Continue Reading… Pakistan is probably going to become the catalyst for the next world war and it will take place within the next decade. The leadership of Pakistan is corrupt and has little popular support. There is now no political remedy that will prevent Islamic radicals from taking over the nation. Islamic militants are now taking over more and more of the countryside and there will be no stopping them by the Pakistani military because the military is already infiltrated and also obsessed with India. Continue Reading… Dr. David Reagan is presenting a series on the truth about Islam. This series should do away with the misconceptions and false statements about Islam coming from our political leaders and even many who call themselves Christians. The God of Islam is not the God of Christianity nor is Allah the God of the Bible. You will find out why in these articles. Continue Reading… I think the Quran would be more accurately described as a satanically inspired book rather than a fascist book although Muslim nations are fascist. Anyway, so much for free speech in the Netherlands. I think the best thing for Mr Wilders is that they dare to prosecute him and give people a hero and national leader to vent there frustrations against Muslims. Geert Wilders will then build a huge following of people who are fed up with Muslims subverting their nation and their way of life and then a European fascist backlash will begin against Muslims. What will make this backlash even more likely is the inevitable future terrorist attacks against the West. Continue Reading… Hal Lindsay points out the scenario that time and time again plays out against Israel. The U.S. has once again been bullied by world opinion and the press into not voting in the UN security council. Now a 14 – 0 vote calls for an Israeli cease fire. Time and time again this game is played out in favor of the terrorists so Israel can never destroy their enemies. Thus, you can be sure that it will be played out again but next time under the new U.S. administration the U.S. will side with the enemies of Israel. Then Israel will have to either commit suicide or ignore the U.N. and risk world action against them. Continue Reading… This article probably has plenty of Bible prophecy significance. Iraq is trying to set up a group of nations like the EU in the Middle East. Many who study Bible prophecy have been saying that Iraq will rise again as a great world center of prosperity in the last days and fulfill the prophecies of Babylon and Babylon the Great. This most likely is the first major step in building the foundation for that entity. Continue Reading… A very interesting article. What if Muhammad never really existed and Islam is a Gnostic spiritual teaching masquerading in the Muhammad myth? I do not think that is totally out the question. A man named Muhammad may have existed but the story attributed to him may be a total myth. Imagine the impact that might have on Islam if this view became more widely accepted. To me these types of critical self evaluations will continue and it does not even matter if they are true. They will gain popularity after the defeat of radical Islam opens the door for a more moderate Islam that will fit within the mode of the universal religious pluralism that some elitists are planing.
