NATO announced late Wednesday it will triple the capacity of its Response Force to 40,000 troops.
"We have just taken another step forward in adapting NATO to our changed and more challenging security environment," Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said in Brussels, Belgium.
In light of Russia's involvement in eastern Ukraine and Moscow's recent decision to upgrade its military, including its nuclear arsenal, NATO is "carefully assessing the implications of what Russia is doing, including its nuclear activities," Stoltenberg said.
Stoltenberg also said the alliance is "working on how to deal with hybrid threats, including through close cooperation with the European Union," the organization said.
The Response Force currently has 13,000 troops and a new Very High Readiness Joint Task Force -- also known as the Spearhead Force -- will have 5,000 troops.
NATO isn't engaging in Cold War-style tactics, Stoltenberg said.
"We do not seek confrontation, and we do not want a new arms race," he added.
The multinational alliance has been conducting several military exercises recently. One took place last week in Sweden, and Russia's foreign ministry on Monday accused NATO countries of "sliding into a new military confrontation with destructive consequences."
The Hidden Hand seeks power, everywhere. This vile evil attempts to influence and manipulate any organization that has the ear of the people. And it enslaves the minds of all who fall under its shadow. Satan created this evil and offers himself as an angel of enlightenment to all who seek understanding. I have seen many fall under his sway, as they seek to figure out his plans.
The Hidden Hand and Current Events
I had to cut things short yesterday, without giving you my update on the events of the week. That update is important, because you need to know some of the reasons why I am saying what I am saying. You also need a starting point for your own research, if you have the time for it.
I wish that I could give you the links to all of the research that I believe to be important. Although, I might be able to, in the near future. I’m thinking about how to do that.
But, I’m glad that I didn’t have time to show you some of my analysis of current events and a some of the research that I’ve been doing.
Why?
Because I missed an important piece in yesterday’s article:
The Freemasons
They are active in every center of power in the world. They seek access and control of every intelligence agency and every government. They have inserted themselves into every religious organization of any size. In fact, ANY organization of any size has been infiltrated by Freemasonry.
Where I come from, in Indiana, you could not succeed in business, unless you were a Freemason. There is a glass ceiling in the business world, and it was created by Freemasons. I’ve seen it myself.
Freemasons Worship Satan
And, whether they know it or not, every Freemason worships Lucifer. Every. Single. One.
If you are a Freemason, you are a Satanist.
And, like all such Satanic organizations, you don’t find that out, until you reach the higher levels of the organization. Satan LOVES wheels-within-wheels, and he invites you to try and figure out what he’s doing.
Please don’t.
Trying to plumb the depths of Satan’s depravity, would take all of your time and effort, and you would STILL not know everything. In fact, since Satan lies to his own followers, much of what you will learn would be a lie.
I’ve done research into some of these evil and secret societies. Anyone who wishes to understand what is going on in the world will run into them and will need some understanding of this vile and evil heart of darkness.
What The Bible Says About This
The Bible has something to say about this. In the final portion of his letter to the church at Ephesus, Paul said:
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
We think that our battle is with politicians and governments, but all of that is just smoke and mirrors. No, our struggle is with spiritual wickedness, and there is only ONE WAY to win that struggle:
The Whole Armor of Godhttps://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%206&version=KJV
There can be no victory without it.
So, as you spend time trying to understand who and what our enemies are, remember that the Bible is our first source. Discard ANY information that disagrees with the Bible.
Satan Will Beguile You With Knowledge
I have seen far too many foolish Christians duck down rabbit holes and get lost amid the warren of lies created by Satan. The lure of knowledge is hard to resist, and Satan has a history of successfully using that lure. After all, it’s why there is sin in the world.
When Satan beguiled Eve, he said:
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
That’s a pretty short video and is a good summary of the information. My own research indicates that he’s entirely correct. Even his comment about Mossad.
Although, I did laugh when he said it. In fact, I laugh every time that I hear some comment about the power of the Mossad. As intelligence agencies go, they are tiny. Furthermore, Arab intelligence agencies like to use Mossad as a secondary cover. They tell their agents that – should they ever be unmasked as an asset of a foreign power – to claim to be from Mossad.
They know that Americans can’t tell the difference.
Having said that, I am NOT a fan of Mossad, and I am willing to believe that they have been penetrated by the Freemasons. In fact, after many decades of trying, Freemasonry has finally made serious inroads into Israel. This distresses me greatly.
Did you know that Benyamin Netanyahu is a 33rd degree Freemason?
So was Yasser Arafat, the King of Jordan and Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin – who must have disobeyed his handlers in some way, and got assassinated for it.
Do Not Oppose God
Just don’t allow anti-Zionism and antisemitism – or, anti-anything – to get a hold on you. God is at work in Israel, with Israel. And, it is never safe to oppose God.
Sorry to go off on a tangent like that. Spend any time in research into ‘secret societies’, and you will run into antisemites who believe the Jews and/or Zionism (the desire of the Jewish people for a safe and secure homeland) are the source of all our troubles. Such bizarre stupidity is incomprehensible.
Okay… so …where was I?
Ah yes. Freemasons.
Freemasons Part Of The Beast
To my mind, Freemasonry is definitely a part of The Beast of Revelation. And, it appears that the Roman Catholic Church has sought to ride and direct this Beast, through its influence with Freemasonry and other secret societies.
The next question is whether the Catholic Church is a part of The Beast, or merely its rider. Time will tell.
Doing Research
So, put on the whole armor of God, and do your research. Hare are some places to start:
Unfortunately, I suspect that Walter Veith is right about Judaism. Followers of Judaism are not saved, and so therefore are in the hands of Satan. God will one day rescue them from idolatry, and I look forward to that day. For now, they are caught in a Satanic trap.
US Government Buildings Dedicated To Lucifer
Oh, and here’s a thought that might shake you a bit:
Did you know that every US government building has been dedicated to Lucifer by the Freemasons?
Yup. The Freemasons dedicate the cornerstone of government buildings everywhere, to Lucifer, with their own date format – Anno Lucis:
Oh, and when I titled this article and yesterday’s, I was using a bit of double entendre. One meaning points the evil and secret power operating in the shadows. But, there’s another meaning. This one:
The Masonic “Hidden Hand”
Have you noticed anyone with that hand sign?
Here are a few:
It’s da POPE!
These guys are VERY similar
The current King of Jordan and Putin
Karl Marx
Stalin and George Washington
Had enough?
Yeah. Me too.
Okay, enough about the Freemasons. Let’s talk about current events.
China
I’m a bit unsettled by what is happening right now in China. The Chinese stock markets are crashing through the floor, and it appears set to continue. When I first saw Chinese banana sellers, Chinese grandmothers and Chinese farmers jumping into the stock market, I knew that it would end badly.
Of course, I’m most concerned that a collapse of the Chinese financial system will act a ‘black swan’, and help to begin the collapse of the global financial system. I know that it will start soon. I’m just hoping for as long a delay as possible – to give you a chance to prepare for it.
Greece
Now, let’s look at Greece. That pot keeps boiling and refuses to go away:
Everyone, this is really, REALLY bad. China might be the first domino, and Greece looks like the second. If China doesn’t start the biggest financial collapse in world history, Greece certainly will.
President Obama on Friday hailed a Supreme Court decision legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide, saying justice has arrived “like a thunderbolt” for gay and lesbian couples.
“They’ve reaffirmed that all Americans are entitled to the equal protection of the law, that all people should be treated equally,” Obama said in the Rose Garden.
Obama said the ruling ends uncertainty for same-sex couples by ending the “patchwork” system of marriage laws in the United States.
“Sometimes there are days like this, when that slow, steady effort is rewarded with justice that arrives like a thunderbolt,” Obama said.
Obama opposed same-sex marriage when he was first elected president in 2008. He backed it before the 2012 election, saying his views had been “evolving” during his time in the White House.

Genesis tells us that God thoroughly destroyed "the cities of the plain", including Sodom and Gomorrah. God said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know." And it says, "Then the LORD rained down burning sulphur on Sodom and Gomorrah - from the LORD out of the heavens." And, "... God destroyed the cities of the plain."
The five cities of the plain have been located and the evidence is staggering. For the first time in modern history we have found round balls of brimstone, or nearly pure sulfur, embedded in an ashen area near the Dead Sea, which show clear signs of having once been ancient building structures!

The Cities in Ancient History
The cities were located in the plain, so they should not be located in the low area now covered by the Dead Sea. These cities were well known in the first century, as Josephus said, "The traces or shadows of the five cities are still to be seen." If Josephus could see them, then we should be able to see them also. The water level of the Dead Sea has fallen since the time of Josephus, so the areas Josephus saw in his day are still visible today.

Biblical Warning For All
The cities of the plain were destroyed as a warning for all that this same event will happen again one day to the wicked. One would think God is capable of preserving this ancient lesson for us to see and to learn from.
"Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens" Genesis 19:24. "Turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly" II Peter 2:6. (The word for "example" means an exhibit for warning.)
Millions of Brimstone balls
Each of the cities of the plain contain evidence of brimstone which God rained down upon the cities to destroy them. We're talking about millions of brimstone balls. The brimstone is composed of 96-98 percent sulfur, with trace amounts of magnesium which create an extremely high temperature burn. This is the only place on earth where you can find 96 percent pure monoclinic sulfur in a round ball. This brimstone is NOT from any type of geo-thermal activity as there is no evidence of such in the area, and geo-thermal sulfur nodules are only 40 percent pure sulfur and are of the rhombic type.
Above at left is brimstone with a burned, hardened shell that has the unburnt sulfur inside, and next to it is brimstone without a burned shell. The photo at right is a shell or capsule with unburned sulfur inside. Tiny crystals are on its surface which were formed when the sulfur was burning and was in a liquid state, then it burned out.

Analysis of the Brimstone
These sulfur balls are mostly golf ball sized, and some have burn marks all around them! Webster's Dictionary says that "brimstone" = sulfur. Accordingly, we have found the absolute proof that we have finally located Sodom and Gomorrah - the cities of the plain.

Analysis of the Ash
Everything in these cities burned and turned into ash, including the buildings themselves as the Bible says that the cities were to be destroyed also. The Bible told us that God rained down "fire and brimstone" When God rains down fire, it is a consuming fire, just like the time of Elijah when God sent down fire to destroy the stone altar, the limestone buildings here were totally destroyed and turned into ash.
The extremely high burning temperatures created a multi-shaded layering of ash that was formed by thermal ionization, caused by electrons repelling and attracting, creating a swirling effect in the remains. The intense fire which God rained down upon these cities was so hot that it burned the limestone blocks that were used in the construction of the cities. The ash there today is composed of Calcium Sulfate and Calcium Carbonate which are by-products of the limestone and sulfur burning.
Franklin Graham, the president of Samaritan's Purse and Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, said that the Supreme Court did not define marriage and therefore cannot re-define it, according to a Twitter post.
"God gave us marriage. Period. And God doesn't change his mind," Graham told Fox Nation. "If pastors are going to be forced to provide marriage services for gay couples, I'm not going to do it," Graham declared.
However, Graham notes that "Long before our government came into existence, marriage was created by the One who created man and woman — Almighty God — and His decisions are not subject to review or revision by any manmade court.
"God is clear about the definition of marriage in His Holy Word: "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh” (Genesis 2:24)," Graham released in a statement on his Facebook page.
“Six years you may sow your land and gather in its produce. But in the seventh [year] you shall release it and abandon it; the poor of your people shall eat [it], and what they leave over, the beasts of the field shall eat. So shall you do to your vineyard [and] to your olive tree[s].” (Exodus 23:10-11)
This year, the world is witness to several blood moons. (Photo: Wikipedia)
Jewish, Christian and secular writers are all focusing their attention on this coming September. Those whose eyes and ears are open understand that the time is pregnant with possibilities for a dramatic End of Days scenario. The end of the current Shemitah cycle, the final blood moon of the current series and worldwide economic instability are all set to converge in the coming months.
A Pattern of Economic Disruption
September 13, 2015 is the last day of the current seven-year agricultural cycle in Israel known as Shemitah. As Rabbi Lazer Brody points out in a recent article, the US economy has suffered from a collapse or crash at the end of at least the past seven Shemitah cycles.
For example, at the end of the previous Shemitah cycle in 2008, the subprime mortgage crisis in the US caused major financial markets to lose nearly a third of their value. At the close of the Shemitah cycle before that, the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 completely shut down Wall Street for a week. When the New York Stock Exchange reopened on September 17, 2001, the market fell 684 points in one day. At the end of the first week of trading following September 11, approximately $1.4 trillion in value was lost.
“The fact that the American economy has nose-dived at the termination of the Shemitta year is more than an established pattern,” Brody asserts. Will we see it again this coming September?
The last day of the current Shemitah year falls on a Sunday, when the US stock market is closed. Nevertheless, based on previous Shemitah cycles, a stock market crash could happen in the weeks just before or after September 13.
More doomsday financial predictions are being seen in Greece, where the country has until June 30 to decide whether or not to exit the European Central Bank. If Greece pulls out, the whole country would uncouple itself economically from the rest of Europe, stop using euro currency and return to using the drachma. Whatever happens on June 30, the economic crisis in Greece, many believe, will likely lead to some sort of ripple effect throughout Europe. Dramatic Historical Events in Israel Connected to Blood Moons
Making the case that the end of the current Shemitah cycle in September 2015 is likely to have adverse effects on the world economy, especially in the US, leads to an important question: How does this connect to the blood moons?
The final blood moon of the current lunar tetrad (when four blood moons in a row occur six months apart) is set for September 28, 2015, very soon after the end of the Shemitah year on September 13. This date corresponds with the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, also known as the Feast of Tabernacles. Unlike the previous three, the fourth blood moon is expected to be visible in Jerusalem.
Recent lunar tetrads have coincided with events of tremendous historical significance for Israel. Four blood moons followed the reestablishment of the State of Israel in 1948. In 1967, there was one blood moon before the Six Day War when the divided city of Jerusalem was reunited and three following.
Said another way, during the blood moon tetrad of 1948, the Land of Israel was restored to the Jewish people. During the blood moon tetrad of 1967, the reunited city of Jerusalem was restored to the Jewish people. During the blood moon tetrad of 2015, will Israel will regain dominion over the Temple Mount and be able to restore God’s presence there after 2,000 years?
One indication that that Temple Mount might soon revert to Jewish hands is found in the story Breaking Israel News reported on June 15, 2015. Billions of dollars worth of gold exists in the mountains near Eilat. Its excavators, Temple Mount activist Rabbi Yehudah Glick and his partner Yehoshua Friedman, plan to mine the gold and use it towards the rebuilding of the Third Holy Temple.
