Historian Who Predicted Fall of Soviet Union Makes Startling ‘World War III’ Remarks – It’s Already Begun The Western Journal, February 15, 2023

worldwar 3

French historian, political scientist and sociologist Emmanuel Todd believes a third world war began last year when Russia invaded Ukraine and the conflict is already on its way to escalating.

At age 25, Todd predicted the collapse of the Soviet Union based on data points such as infant mortality rates.

The 1976 prognostication came to fruition 15 years later when the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. Todd has been taken seriously globally since.His latest comments about a global conflict of an unimaginable scale are getting plenty of attention.

Todd recently told the French publication Le Figaro that Russian President Vladimir Putin underestimated the will of the people of Ukraine when he invaded that country. The result, the historian said, set off what has already become a global conflict.

“It’s obvious that the [Ukraine] conflict, which started as a limited territorial war and escalated to a global economic confrontation between the whole of the West on the one hand and Russia and China on the other hand, has become a world war,” Todd said.

Satanists hold ‘gender affirming ritual’ to protest Idaho’s proposed ban on child sex changes The Post Millennial, February 14, 2023

satanic_ritual

On Monday, members of the Satanic Temple gathered in the Idaho state capitol to protest a bill that would ban child sex changes, performing a “gender affirmation ritual” in the building’s Rotunda.

Video taken by TPUSA Frontlines’ Rebecca Brannon showed one blue-haired member of the temple stating, “we will continue to be light bringers to our community. We will continue to be adversaries against injustice. We will continue to be heard, even when those around us mean to silence us.”

“Bodily autonomy is sacred,” she added, to which one man in the audience hit a bell.

“We will fight against our oppressors for this value, as it is a deeply held religious belief. Take a moment to observe and listen around you,” she continued, with the man hitting the bell again.

Counter-protestors gathered around the upper level of the rotunda, carrying signs and American flags.

One sign read, “Idaho is God’s Country,” while another stated, “You are not a mistake,” citing the book of Genesis.

“We have just as much right to be here as they do,” the woman added, gesturing towards the people on the upper level. “Religious plurality is a value that we uphold and we seek to serve that.”

“So thank you for attending our Satanic gender affirmation ritual, everyone on the other corresponding floors,” she said, holding up the sign of the horns hand gesture and adding, “hail Satan to that.”

Speaking to the small crowd assembled in front of her, she instructed them to write down their “dead names,” “dead pronouns,” “false identities,” and “whatever doesn’t serve you anymore.”

Telling the crowd to close their eyes and “reflect on this act,” adding, “an identity that is forced on you, even though it is unauthentic to who you are, no institution or church may force a false identity on you.”

“We are forged in hellfire, and come out tempered with the blade of wisdom. You are reclaiming yourselves,” she added, instructing the crowd to rip up the piece of paper and place it into a glass jar.

“I take all of these forced false identities and watch them dissipate into the waters of self-compassion,” she said, pouring water into the glass jar, later shaking it with dirt added in.

“Many will see this as a blasphemy. Blasphemy should be seen as a reexamination of the supposed sacred. We fall outside of prescribed binaries and delusions of old. This should not be demonized or othered. You are your own master,” she said.

As we open our eyes to the unfiltered news, we realize we are in a full-on war, and we don’t send ourselves out to war without being dressed right.

We need to have our armor.

.

Armor of God - 1

.

We need to have our heavy-duty boots. We need to have our sword, our shield, our helmet.

Armor of God - 3

.

We need all of that. And we need the blood of Jesus.

Our struggle is ultimately against “spiritual forces of evil,” meaning the real battle is the spiritual warfare of good versus evil. There is a spiritual war ongoing for the hearts of man, as the forces of evil want to turn us away from God and separate us from Him.

.

Ephesians 6 includes a description of the spiritual armor God gives us. What do these pieces of spiritual armor represent in spiritual warfare? We are to know the truth, believe the truth, and speak the truth. We are to rest in the fact that we are declared righteous because of Christ’s sacrifice for us. We are to proclaim the gospel no matter how much resistance we face. We are not to waver in our faith, trusting God’s promises no matter how strongly we are attacked. Our ultimate defense is the assurance we have of our salvation, an assurance that no spiritual force can take away. Our offensive weapon is the Word of God, not our own opinions and feelings.

donna - psalm 91

Psalm 91 is a real Sword-of-the-Spirit scripture. When you look at Psalm 91, it is full of promise. The promise made to you is in verse one. The confession that you should make is in verse two. The promise of deliverance is in verse three, and the promise of protection is in four. The promises of courage and safety are in verses seven and eight. The promises of security is in verses nine and ten. The promises of help is in eleven and twelve. The promises of victory is in 13, and the promises of honor is in 14 and 15, and the promises of life is in 16. These promises bolster our Shield of Faith.

So do you think Psalm 91 covers a lot of ground, by the way? God’s good at that.

The one who lives under the protection of the Most High
dwells in the shadow of the Almighty.

.psalm 91-16

.

Psalm 91 speaks of those who “dwell in the shelter of the Most High” (v. 1), making their home with God. The Hebrew word for dwells here means “to remain, to stay permanently.” As we remain in Him, He helps us live according to His wisdom and to love Him above all (v. 14; John 15:10). God promises us the comfort of being with Him for eternity, as well as the security of His being with us through earthly hardship. Although trouble may come, we can rest in His sovereignty, wisdom, and love, and in His promises to protect and deliver us.

When we make God our refuge, we live “in the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1). No trouble can touch us except that which His infinite wisdom and love allow. This is the safety of God as our home.

Psalm 91:11–12 is among the many Old Testament psalms quoted in the New Testament. When Jesus was tempted in Jerusalem, the devil said to Him, “If you are the Son of God, . . . throw yourself down from here. For it is written: ‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone’” (Luke 4:9–11).

tempted in the wilderness

Psalm 91 is indeed a song about God’s protection, but the verses Satan quoted were misapplied. What the devil did amounted to abuse of Scripture. His quote was meant to tempt Jesus to test God by putting Himself in harm’s way. But rather than foolishly test God, Jesus would trust the One who declared Him to be the “Son, whom I love” (Luke 3:22) all the way to the cross.

This psalm is a powerful chapter when a believer is in a time of crisis.  The ending of all of this is the most powerful of all as God says He will “show him [or her], His salvation.”  If you have salvation, all of these other serious circumstances of One World Government, World War 3, the rise of Satan, or any other threat are only temporary because ultimately, God is our refuge, our fortress, our shield, our buckler, and His love overshadows us and will bring us safely into the kingdom someday.  God truly is our fortress and our refuge.

.

If you are not sure that you are a member of the family of God, you can accept Christ into your life right now, by praying:

“Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins.  Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life.  I ask you in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior.”
