M&M: What’s ahead for Europe and the US dollar? War in 2020?


“I will break the pride of your power” (Leviticus 26:19)

COGwriter

What is ahead? Notice the following claims by Larry Edelson of Money and Markets:

January 28, 2015

Why is income inequality worsening, despite slow global economic growth and despite government efforts to redistribute wealth?It has to do with what I call the “granddaddy of all cycles,” the major war cycle of 53.5 years in duration, a cycle that has pinpointed every major war since the beginning of time. … It’s pointing up into 2020, the earliest date it can peak. …

Make no mistake: It is this war cycle that is now driving — consciously or unconsciously — nearly every government decision that is being made.

 It is why we are seeing attacks on the rich in Europe and the United States, not to mention China.

 It is why we are seeing governments in Europe and the United States tax the rich, to allegedly redistribute wealth, but in reality, is backfiring, sending the rich fleeing, causing income inequality to worsen, and killing business formation.

 It is why we are seeing battles between religions, between civilizations, between groups within nations and between nations.

 It is why we are seeing rampant cyber espionage, between nations as well as governments spying on their own people.

 It is why we are now seeing the world in such a mess that even Pope Francis has recognized that the world is already in World War III, an acknowledgement he made last September at a speech in Italy.

Make no mistake: The world is indeed a mess, but it’s also about to get a whole lot worse.

Markets will continue to gyrate wildly. Europe will go down the tubes. Japan will default as well in the years ahead, and the biggest of them all, our own government, will also succumb to the forces I describe above.

You will see gold plunge on further deflation, then suddenly turn around and soar to over $5,000 an ounce.

You will see the U.S. stock markets similarly plunge, but then soar like an eagle as they become the last bastion of capitalism, as frightened money from all over the place, including sovereign bond markets, pours into equities like never before.

You will see bond markets lose 30 percent, 40 percent, even 60 percent on the dollar, wiping out pensions and untold millions of unsuspecting investors.

You will see the value of the dollar soar, as investors from other areas of the world, run for cover … and then, when the process is complete and everyone realizes the Emperors of Washington also have no clothes …

You will see the dollar crash and burn, forcing the world’s leaders to convene a new Bretton Woods, a new monetary system, a new reserve currency.

Mark my words: All of the above, and more, is coming.  http://www.moneyandmarkets.com/get-ready-granddaddy-cycles-69619#.VMjwbC64J34

Larry Edelson is correct that we are seeing attacks on the rich in Europe and the USA.

Larry Edelson is correct that governments in Europe and the USA are claiming that they need taxes on the rich for some forms of income redistribution.

Larry Edelson is correct that we are seeing battles between religions, civilizations, and groups of nations.  However, an ecumenical and interfaith movement is going forward (see United Nations: Humankind’s Last Hope or New World Order? and Will the Interfaith Movement Lead to Peace or Sudden Destruction?) and the time will come when there will be a temporary false peace (some details are in the article about the ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27).  There will also be more official groupings of nations, with a reorganized power block in Europe (Revelation 17:12) and a confederation in the Middle East and North Africa (Daniel 11:40-43; see also Is the Future King of the South Rising Up).  While secular sources can sometimes see ‘the handwriting on the wall’ (see Can those in the USA/UK see the Handwriting on the Wall?) they also do not always understand what God means without assistance.  Europe, despite problems it will face, will rise up and become the dominant financial power in the world for a time after the USA loses its place.

Larry Edelson is correct that governments are engaging in more cyber espionage.  That is expected to continue (cf. Revelation 13:15-18; see also The Snowden Leaks are Leading to the Destruction of the USA).

Larry Edelson is correct that Pope Francis made comments about WWIII in September 2014, though Pope Francis said “A “piecemeal” World War III may have already begun” (see Pope Francis objecting to current ‘piecemeal’ World War III; Vatican radio reports bishops blasting Russia for blood in Ukraine).  Steps are being taken to prepare for WWIII, but not quite as it seems that Larry Edelson envisions it (see World War III: Steps in Progress).

Larry Edelson is correct that “world is indeed a mess, but it’s also about to get a whole lot worse.”  However, there will be a time when many will believe it is getting better when there is a temporary peace deal (see also ‘The ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27).  Jesus talked about the time we are now in:

6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. (Matthew 24:6-8)

I believe that we are in what Jesus referred to as ‘the beginning of sorrows.’   Jesus said that after the gospel of the kingdom was preached to the world as a witness (Matthew 24:14), things would get a lot worse and His most faithful followers would flee (see also There is a Place of Safety for the Philadelphians. Why it May Be Petra):

15 “Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), 16 “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.  17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house.  18 And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.  19 But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!  20 And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath.  21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.  22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.  (Matthew 24:15-22)

The end, as various Christians tend to define it, begins with the fulfillment of Matthew 24:15 and the start of the Great Tribulation as mentioned in Matthew 24:21.

The Great Tribulation, also known as the time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), is further described in Revelation 6:9-11 (the fifth seal, that seems to occur because the faithful church has suffered martyrdom, cf. Daniel 11:31-35; Matthew 24:9-10), Lamentations, Daniel, and other parts of the Bible. It starts with Matthew 24:21 and Daniel 11:39. Some would call this World War III (WWIII), though the battle to takeover the USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies will be much, much briefer than most would believe–but it will happen and the Europeans will win (Daniel 11:39; cf. Revelation 13:4).

The fact is that the 6000 years God gave humankind to rule itself is about to come to an end, which means we are nearer to the start of the Great Tribulation, WWIII, and even WWIV (related to the staging at Armageddon and involving a confederation known as the “kings from the east” Revelation 16:12). But there still is at least 3 1/2 years to go (and likely more than 3 1/2 years).  Yet, Larry Edelson is correct that WWIII could start in 2020–but there are events we need to see first, that we all should watch for (see also When Will the Great Tribulation Begin?).

Because of the proximity to the end of 6000 years for humanity to rule itself mainly cut off from God, we are to expect wars, rumors of wars, and various sorrows (Matthew 24:4-8). And then the end of the nations of USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies once the time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), the great tribulation (Matthew 24:21) begins.

Ultimately of course, there is good news as ultimately, Jesus will return, God’s kingdom will come, and those issues will be gone (Revelation 7:16).

Getting back to Larry Edelson, he is correct that we will see “Markets will continue to gyrate wildly.”

Larry Edelson is correct that gold prices will fluctuate and ultimately be worth over $5000 per ounce.  But the time will also come, near the end of the time known as the ‘Day of the Lord’ when gold will be worthless (see also The Plain Truth About Gold in Prophecy. How Should a Christian View Gold?).

Larry Edelson is correct that the time will come when “everyone realizes the Emperors of Washington also have no clothes …You will see the dollar crash and burn.”  However, he seems a bit optimistic as he claims that “the world’s leaders to convene a new Bretton Woods, a new monetary system, a new reserve currency.”

Why is that optimistic?

Because Larry Edelson seems to believe that there will be a future for the USA dollar.  But, while there could be a new reserve world currency that the USA dollar is part of, the when the USA dollar truly crashes and burns, it will be no more per Habakkuk 2:6-8 (see also Anglo – America in Prophecy).

We are nearing the time of great distress. WWIII will come, and actions by the Europeans, the USA, and others are leading to it.

Market Collapse then New World Order in 2015?  A long-time financial adviser named Harvey Organ claims that claims that because of insufficient gold in the central banks of USA and UK, that Shanghai would bring about exposing this and that this would lead to a massive, overnight, rise in the price of gold and silver, diminished value of their currencies. He states a market collapse will occur before the end of 2014, that the petroyuan will replace the petrodollar, and that a Chinese led New World Order will be in place for 2015. Is this possible?
