CNN: The worst of inflation finally might be over ‘ COGwriter: No, the worst is yet to come
Large protests are taking place across Europe with thousands of people flooding the streets of national capitals. #Irishfreedom #inflation

Have we been having inflation?
Yes.
Many are upset about it and many thousands have protested about it.
Will it one day get much worse for places like the USA?
Yes.
The Bible warns:
5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.” (Revelation 6:5-6)
Either this horseman has begun to ride as we are seeing food price inflation in the USA, Europe, Africa, and other parts of the world OR the ride will begin in the future.
Either way, food price inflation has not peaked and will get worse.
Yes, the worst is yet to come.
CNN, however, published the following:
The worst of inflation finally might be over
September 11, 2022
Economists are currently forecasting that consumer prices for August will fall slightly from July and that prices were up 8.1% over the past 12 months. Of course, 8.1% is still incredibly high by historical standards but it would be a notable slowdown from the June’s 9.1% year-over-year spike in prices. “We probably have seen the peak on inflation. Food and energy prices are coming down. There is more room to the downside,” said Joe Kalish, chief global macro strategist with Ned Davis Research. https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/11/investing/stocks-week-ahead-inflation/index.html
No, we have not seen the peak on inflation, though there will be fluctuations in the rates, particularly monthly ones.
Furthermore, the way that inflation has been officially reported has understated what has been happening.
More inflation is coming–and with potentially devastating consequences.
Here is something from my 2021 book, Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction:
Joe Biden will have to deal with the fact that the U.S.A. is the most indebted nation in the history of humanity. Plus, he has pledged increasing it further [The Biden Emergency Action Plan to Save the Economy. JoeBiden.com, accessed 12/16/20].
Debt is a prophesied problem (cf. Habakkuk 2:6-8). But many in the media as well as politically-inclined economists do not see it that way—but that is too short sighted (cf. Ecclesiastes 8:11).
The time will come when the U.S.A. government will no longer be able to borrow at low interest rates and/or it will create more money electronically and/or via the printing press to try to continue.
Make no mistake about it — massive inflation is coming.
The U.S.A. dollar will ultimately crash and be worthless. That “pride” of American power will be broken (cf. Leviticus 26:19).
A Biden-Harris Administration has asserted it will take debt raising steps. …
The Economy
While pushing biblically immoral ideas is bad for the economy, it should be noted that economies vary. A modern reality is that being the world’s de facto reserve currency has helped prolong the U.S.A.’s dominance.
When the U.S. dollar is no longer the world’s reserve currency, this will hurt the U.S.A. financially. Increasing debt, including “quantitative easing,” is a form of dishonest profits that is not something that God approves of and will punish the U.S.A. for (cf. Ezekiel 22:13-16).
Inflation will eventually hit the U.S.A. extremely hard. As the world becomes less attached to the American dollar, many financial jobs and opportunities will be in places other than the U.S.A. Eventually, but not yet, the U.S.A. dollar will become worthless (worth no more than the scrap or sentimental value of the cotton-paper it is printed on).
Will it always be straight downhill for the economy of the U.S.A.?
No.
There are some reasons to have some temporary optimism. The longer there is some economic stagnation in parts of the economy that governmental COVID-19 policies contributed to, the more demand tends to build up, and an increase in demand may prolong the economy. In addition, technological and other developments may temporarily support the U.S. economy—as can reductions of regulatory burdens.
Some policies of the Biden-Harris Administration may help. Others see problems. The Biden-Harris team looks to increase various regulations and impact some industries negatively (such as the fossil fuel industry). Various ones see their proposed policies and cabinet selections as a refreshing change that they hope will fuel economic growth and shared prosperity.
Notice what was told to a king whose was prophesied to lose his kingdom:
27 Therefore, O king, let my advice be acceptable to you; break off your sins by being righteous, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor. Perhaps there may be a lengthening of your prosperity. (cf. Daniel 4:27)
Repentance can prolong prosperity, but promotion of sin leads to destruction. But, it is not expected that Joe Biden or Kamala Harris will push for scriptural national repentance. (Thiel B. Biden-Harris: Prophecies and Destruction. Nazarene Books, 2021)
The history of the US government increasing debt, which it has accelerated because of policies related to COVID-19, is setting the stage for more inflation.
That, combined with droughts, floods, soaring fertilizer costs, sanctions, and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine (both of which are significant suppliers of several of the foods that Revelation 6:5-6 will become more expensive) push food price inflation.
Sanctions are impacting many around the world. Here is some information from a couple of different sources related to Europe:
September 11, 2022
Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo warned that Europe needs to act immediately to address the energy crisis or risk the kind of fundamental economic shutdown that the bloc would struggle to recover from.
During an interview with Bloomberg News, De Croo warned:
“The risk of that is de-industrialization and severe risk of fundamental social unrest.”
Like a number of other EU leaders, who are rapidly diverging from Brussels bureaucrats on the path forward, the Belgium leader warns against unilateral action against Russia, urging
“I honestly do not see any other choice than doing market interventions,” De Croo said.
“We don’t get a second chance to prove as 450 million Europeans that we take things in our hands. What you are seeing today is a massive drainage of prosperity out of the European Union.” https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/no-choice-intervention-belgium-pm-fears-severe-risk-social-unrest
September 11, 2022
Here are the developments Europe will see in the near term:
Rolling Blackouts
Further Price Inflation In Energy
Business Shutdowns Due To Operating Costs
Energy Fascism – Informants And Government Monitoring Of Usage
Continued Price Inflation In General Goods Including Food
More Government Price Controls
Governments Pushing The Idea Of Universal Basic Income
Rationing Of All Necessities
Severe Economic Decline And Job Losses
Large Numbers Of People Freezing In The Winter
Civil Unrest
I could continue on with this list but I think you get the idea. It’s not going to be pretty. For those of us in the US this seems like a scenario out of sight and out of mind, but this will not be the case. Europe is going to be scouring markets for energy supplies, anywhere they can find them. Case in point, the US is ALREADY sending 75% of its liquid natural gas exports to Europe. There is very little resource backstop for the EU to dip into.
This means less oil, less gas, less coal, less of everything for purchase in America. Sure, we could be producing most of these resources in-house and cut exports to the EU, but the Biden Administration will never allow that to happen. …
European agriculture will also be hit hard. Food production will fall as energy supplies and fertilizer supplies falter. This means they will be buying up more grains and foods from other nations, causing prices to jump for everyone else including the US.
Civil unrest in Europe is assured. Similar conditions are already brewing in the states, but it’s hard to say if Europe’s problems will trigger public anger here. More price inflation might be the straw that breaks the camel’s back, but this is unlikely until mass layoffs start later this year and into 2023. https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/europe-facing-energy-disaster-and-its-going-bleed-over-us
Yes, there will civil unrest in Europe. Yes, there will be civil unrest in the USA.
Notice something else from the old Worldwide Church of God 47 years ago:
The black horseman’s future ride will reduce the proud faces of white America, Europe, and the British Commonwealth into the blackened skin of starvation such as now afflicts the vast majority of mankind. (Alexander G. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Ambassador College Press, Pasadena (CA), 1973, p. 31)
Sadly, since many leading so-called ‘economists’ are political hacks and/or have a political agenda, do not expect too many prominent ones to have sufficient influence to resolve the problems in the USA.
The truth is that the USA is setting itself up for massive inflation as well as food shortages.
The time will come when the USA dollar will be worthless.
As far as inflation and money goes, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) put together the following Bible News Prophecy video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel, the audio portion of which was sent for broadcast on the European Gospel Radio station AM 1323 kHz last Monday 21:30-21:45 (9:30-9:45 PM) European Central Time:
Inflation: When Money Fails
Inflation has been higher in 2022 than it has been for decades in the USA, Europe, and many other lands. What are some of the disruptions that inflation can cause? What about hyperinflation affecting places like Venezuela? Did the Book of Haggai predict inflation? Is food price inflation associated with the ride of the third horseman of the Apocalypse? Does sin and government mismanagement cause inflation? Are there physical things one can do about inflation? What about storing food or buying gold? Will gold outlast the USA dollar? Why might some throw their gold in the street as Ezekiel prophesied? What should God’s people do about inflation? What did Jesus teach about food worries? What about seeking the Kingdom of God? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel cover these matters.
Here is a link to our video: Inflation: When Money Fails.
Hyperinflation will hit the USA and its results will be worse than almost anyone realizes.
As far as signs consistent with the rides of the horsemen of the Apocalypse, the Continuing Church of God put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
These Signs of the 4 Horsemen Have Begun
Are we at the time of the ride of at least some of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse? If so, are many prophecy watchers missing signs associated with them? History shows that authoritarian totalitarian regimes tend to arise after famines and/or pestilences. Those are events associated with three of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. Could the beginning of sorrows, and the associated ride of the first horseman of false ecumenical religion, have started in the Fall of 2009? What is the significance of this rider having a bow? Is Satan the prince of the power of the air? Did Dr. Thiel warn of a prophetic threat of a “novel” coronavirus back in 2013? Could COVID-19 been related to the taking away the peace from the earth that is associated with the ride of the red horse, the second horsemen of war? What are some of the ramifications of the Russia-Ukraine military conflict and the opening of the second seal? Was Amos inspired to write that God does nothing without revealing it to his servants the prophets? Who warned of these matters? The ride of the third horse, the black horse of famine and food price inflation–specifically wheat, barley, edible oils, and wine. Since Ukraine is a major exporter of the first three, could this, as well as fertilizer shortages, have anything to do with the ride of that horseman? The pale horse of the fourth seal mentions one-quarter of humankind being subject to being killed by the sword, hunger, and pestilence–will this be a factor in the rise of the Beast of Revelation 13? Is persecution associated with the start of the Great tribulation and the rise of the Beast? Why is the Beast going to be in charge of a European-based empire? Will the opening of the first four seals and the starts of the rides of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse get Europe to reorganize such as is prophesied in Revelation 17:12-13? What does Jesus say you should do? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more in this video.
Here is a link to our video: These Signs of the 4 Horsemen Have Begun.
Food price inflation has not peaked.
