But all the doom on this site is getting to me. I'm more awake than ever, I see and hear things coming out of peoples mouths and I just wonder WTF are they thinking. Quoting: Hwy380 For instance just this morning I was telling my wife that we may be at war with Russia and China by week's end, without hesitation her response was "I don't think that can happen". I spent the next two hours showing her things and trying to get her to understand if she has to make a choice on who to trust take me over MSM since I have a degree in GLP!!! I'm in the North Texas area (north DFW) if there are any friendly Texans here from GLP and have some kick ass survival skills or just overly full of DOOM wisdom would pay for the first drink for your time. She's right....it's not going to happen....not over this. ...a proxy war maybe.....but not WWIII. OP....get away from GLP. Take a breather, you are becoming indoctrinated. I have tried a few times, I agree with you though, I almost feel I have to just prepare than shut it off completely. I hope you are right about the proxy war, my gut though is saying this is going to be bad. Stop letting this place wind you up so much. Whatever is going to happen will happen....but it won't be a global war. It's just going to be some kind of proxy war...and the Russians know Obama is the problem....not the USA itself. They are not stupid. Also... Preparing yourself will help much. It will will give you peace of mind that you ARE covered if anything happens. At minimum you should have 3 months reserves....3 years is preferable IMHO. |

I would advise you spend your time wisely by drawing closer to the Creator (James 4:8) during this time of the end. Study the Bible especially in these areas: - What will happen to the earth? - Who will survive the coming "great tribulation" spoken of by Jesus at Matt 24:21 - What really is Armageddon? (hint: it's not a nuclear conflagration brought on by men) God's Kingdom, the subject of the model prayer taught by Jesus long ago (Matt 6:9,10), is a real government that will remove current wicked governments (Dan 2:44). Learn what you and your family must do to become citizens of that government... salvation and taking in knowledge of God go hand in hand (John 17:3). |

Amen to that prayer. Psalm 91 1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a] 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” 3 Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. 4 He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. 5 You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, 6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. 7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. 8 You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. 9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, 10 no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. 11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; 12 they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. 13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. 14 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. 15 He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. 16 With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” thiswayorthatway |

I think it's smart to prepare and have supplies at home for you and your family.... Just always remember the GLP disclaimer and the fact that 99.99% of the 'doom' predictions/claims never materialize or play out the way that people want to believe.... It's easy to be influenced by the types of things that are posted here and we've all experienced this at one time or another. Your family may not echo the same sentiments as the types of individuals who frequent this site - but that's not necessarily a bad thing in many cases.... |

Do you or anyone else believe we will be called by God to be soldiers at the end or is that for the angels only? Regarding being soldiers, can only tell you that what I've learned is: The Bible teaches that Christians aren't to take up weapons "for all those who take the sword will perish by the sword" (Matt 26:52). And, for all who will surely ridicule that stance: No, I'm not advocating abandoning your family to lawless people; of course you should be smart about taking basic precautions and doing whatever you can to protect them/yourself. Nobody knows for sure how things will play out during this "great tribulation" period. Become detached to material things including your home, etc. - your life will be way more important. And, even if you should die (likely that a lot of people will), there's a resurrection hope. That's why I say, build your faith and strengthen that of your family. It's because of having such strong faith many early Christians were integrity keepers and fearless in the face of death. |

After that it's a good knife/machete, A fire starter, plastic tarp, and cordage, cordage cordage! (fishing line, rope, cloths line, twine, you name it).
