The American Revolution was unique from every other revolution in history in one profound way: it was not begun by the poor or oppressed, but rather by the wealthy and successful. Those who signed the Declaration of Independence had the most to lose by a revolution. Nothing like this can be found in recorded history. 

         What kind of vision could fire the souls of the most accomplished and comfortable to face such an impossible task of challenging the most powerful empire in the world? When they declared that they would sacrifice...

         We live in a remarkable world in remarkable times. Advances in every field are coming at warp speed, except for one area: our sense of well-being. Depression and anxiety are increasing while happiness is decreasing. Why? 

         The increasing psychological instability is not the fault of technological advances as much as it is the powerful and systematic attack on our moral and cultural foundations. The fastest way to kill a plant is to cut it off from its roots, and the fastest way to destroy a nation is to cut it off...

Before this event, the food needed to sustain the population required 90% of the people to be engaged in food production....

         The world is being brought to the “Valley of Decision.” All will have to choose between the light and darkness, good and evil, truth and lies. We are in the times that will separate the wheat from the chaff, and the nations as sheep or goats.

         One of the most memorable statements to ever open a book was, “It was the best of times, and the worst of times.” This could be said of all times, and it is true today.

         The day of The Lord is called “The great and terrible day of The Lord.” It will be great for some, and terrible for others. The 2016 Presidential election could have been a preview of this. There was about an equal number thanking God for the outcome as there was those cursing. 2020 is likely to be a repeat of this,...
