The amount of bad news is shocking. We saw this coming years ago, but it was always on the horizon. Years away, not weeks. But now, the world has gone insane, and that leaves us with an important question:
Are you ready for the worst?
The collapse of America and Europe has already begun. All that we are arguing about now, is how fast the collapse will be.
Are you going to bet that this disaster will not affect you very much?
I hope not. Smart people prepare for the worst and pray that it never hits them.

The Top Ten Videos for July 17th
————————————
I got a bit of a jolt yesterday. I was out with my wife, when she told me that she had ordered NT$6000 in vouchers.
I thought, “Vouchers? Vouchers for what?”
Oblivious to my confusion, she went on to say that the cost will be NT$2000 to participate in this program and that there were certain limitations to what we could use them for. As she went on describing the details of what these vouchers were, I realized that The Greatest Depression had arrived in Taiwan.
Now, NT$6000 isn’t all that much. It’s about US$200, since one dollar is worth NT$29.49, which can be a bit intimidating when you see a McDonald’s hamburger listed for $100. (YIKES! Oh, wait… ) Since everyone assumes that you know the price of everything is in ‘NT$’, they leave off the ‘NT’.
I’ve been here for ten years, and I still get a bit of a shock at times.
However, this voucher program is a big deal here. The Taiwanese are extremely frugal, and their government has reflected that by keeping the national debt to around a third of its GDP. So, when they come out with a voucher program like this, it’s serious.
That was the final wake up call for me.
Over the past few years, we’ve been pretty careful to have extra everything. So, we’ve been prepared for any short term disruption. But, I think that we need to up our game a bit, now that Taiwan is being affected by the global depression.
How about you?
Taiwan is a pretty stable country, with a society that doesn’t expect much from their government. Also, the Taiwanese still have a social memory of what times were like before her meteoric rise in affluence. So, when things get really bad, they’ll tighten their belts and keep going without falling apart.
Of course, if China invades this island, all bets are off. Having said that, Mrs. Little and I didn’t come here to ‘play it safe’.
So, what about your situation?
Will your society fall apart when the economy collapses?
Will the food distribution networks keep running?
Are you ready for food prices to increase?
That last one is probably the most immediate issue. Food prices WILL increase. In fact, the price of everything is going to increase, or disappear from store shelves completely. We’re already starting to see some of that, here in Taiwan. And, I’m betting that you are going to see that as well.
More importantly…
Are you in a safe place?
If not…
Do you have a safe place that you can get to?
And, do you have friends and family that you can depend on?
I cannot tell you with certainty that Pastor Coverstone is right, that his dreams are from God. But, I can tell you that what he foresees is a lot like what has happened before, under similar circumstances. Only this time, we live in a high tech society that can destroy itself far more quickly than ever before in human history.
The Roman Empire went from business-as-usual to complete collapse in under nine years. If an iron age culture can fall that quickly…
…how fast will America and Europe fall?
Are you prepared for the worst?
If not, now is the time to start.
THE MADNESS THEY STARTED
I believe that the madness that we see right now is a foretaste of the same kind of madness that the Antichrist will use to gain control.
When Will the Madness End? – AIER
The writer, Jeffrey A. Tucker, was in New York City, in March, when he met a psychiatrist, who said this:
“Madness is all around us. The public is adopting a personality disorder I’ve been treating my whole career.”
“What is it that you do?” I asked.
“I’m a practicing psychiatrist who specializes in anxiety disorders, paranoid delusions, and irrational fear. I’ve been treating this in individuals as a specialist. It’s hard enough to contain these problems in normal times. What’s happening now is a spread of this serious medical condition to the whole population. It can happen with anything but here we see a primal fear of disease turning into mass panic. It seems almost deliberate. It is tragic. Once this starts, it could take years to repair the psychological damage.”
The writer then said:
It took weeks however even for me to realize that he was right: the main threat society faced was a psychological condition.
The writer then quotes Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds by Charles Mackay (1841):
In reading the history of nations, we find that, like individuals, they have their whims and their peculiarities; their seasons of excitement and recklessness, when they care not what they do. We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first. We see one nation suddenly seized, from its highest to its lowest members, with a fierce desire of military glory; another as suddenly becoming crazed upon a religious scruple; and neither of them recovering its senses until it has shed rivers of blood and sowed a harvest of groans and tears, to be reaped by its posterity…. Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.
The writer goes on to issue a mea culpa, talking about how his expectations of a return to normalcy were deeply incorrect.
I was preposterously wrong, along with my four-month-old feeling that all of this stuff would stop on Monday. The psychiatrist I met in New York was correct: the drug of fear had already invaded the public mind. Once there, it takes a very long time to recover. This is made far worse by politics, which has only fed the beast of fear. This is the most politicized disease in history, and doing so has done nothing to help manage it and much to make it all vastly worse.
We’ve learned throughout this ordeal that despite our technology, our knowledge, our history of building prosperity and peace, we are no smarter than our ancestors and, by some measures, not as smart as our parents and grandparents. The experience with COVID has caused a mass reversion to the superstitions and panics that sporadically defined the human experience of ages past.
As Charles Mackay said about people:
…they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.
That, brothers and sisters, is our future. Madness… madness, everywhere.
EVIL THAT WE HAVE DONE
And, the evil isn’t just fornication. It’s also the evil that we’ve done to other countries and ourselves.
We sent out our soldiers to kill others, and it has destroyed them.
This is a big part of why I am against America’s wars. In addition to the evil that we have done to others, we are forcing our own soldiers to commit these evils. They joined the army and marines to fight for freedom. And, the price that they paid was more than they could bear. The weight that these men carry, is beyond comprehension. And, I am so, so sorry. And, we were the ones who did it to them.
Army’s ‘Captain America’ who served nearly 12 combat tours dies by suicide after moving to DC
I look at the picture of this poor guy who took his own life, and I can only say that I’m so sorry for what we forced him to do. For what we tricked him into doing.
CIA HEROIN TRADE
And then, there’s the Central Intelligence Agency and the evil of their heroin trade.
“I Could Live With That”: How the CIA Made Afghanistan Safe for the Opium Trade – CounterPunch.org
One of the greatest evils committed by the CIA, is the global trade in heroin. What they have done is so foul, that I can hardly believe it. For this alone, they should be smashed into a thousand pieces and scattered to the winds.
But, they’ve become far too strong, too wealthy, too powerful.
JACOBINS
The Jacobins were the ones who led the charge during the French Revolution. And now, an American version is attempting to do the same thing.
You do not want this.
I truly hope that you’ll be ready for this
A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. – Proverbs 22:3

What do you think of Celeste Solum?
https://thecommonsenseshow.com/united-nations-united-states-war/weapons-formed-against-you-you-are-playing-eternal-fire-celeste-solum
Hi BJ Bouchard,
Unfortunately, looking at her site, it’s clear that she should be avoided like the plague. She is deeply in error.
Furthermore, ANYONE who appears on a ’roundtable’ discussion with Steven DeNoon, should be avoided.
And, I’m betting that ‘Celeste Bishop Solum’ is not her real name. If someone isn’t prepared to be honest about WHO they are, you should not trust what they say.
I hope that helps, BJ. We live in an age of deception, so we must be very, very careful about who we listen to.
Yours in Christ,
John Little

Brother John
I followed Steven Denoons information youtube movies for quite a while but had to stop it lot of is sensation also to get money from you and he is in contact with questionable People
You are good in evaluating People
Although it’s not always easy after a while it get into me it’s not right
Sister Nadine
Sorry i dont have the scripture but a short period of time is sort of equal to a longer period. For instance a day is like a year or a year is like a day. The Word tells us babylon will be destroyed in an hour. So, if a day can be a year, can a year be divided by 24, hours in a day, so that we are destroyed or brought down in a two and a half week period, or one hour when a day equals a year. That would be a good estimate on how long it would take to bring the economy to a crash and get a war started up.
We have to be careful about throwing too much ‘mathematics’ into a question like this, but yes… it really can be a very short period of time. Thanks, Steven. – JL
Brother John
Will you take thé Vaccine covid 19 ?
Sister nadine
To clarify, this effort to create a vaccine IS NOT THE MARK OF THE BEAST. The Antichrist comes first. So, having said that… If the situation was serious enough (it isn’t)… and if the vaccine seemed to work (it doesn’t)… then yes, I would take it. I hope that helps, Nadine. – JL
Hi John,
So much to know, so little time ( no pun intended) . But have you noticed that
if a country has a neighboring country, they are always at each other?
I propose that all countries be Islands to solve the problem .
Also, you have a lot on Mo-Ham Ed and cheese , have you ever looked at TROP
“the religion of peace” web site ,
they feature Myths of Mo mam Mad and
a daily death count around the world. Sad.
And “X-22 Reports ” on you tube. I hope it’s true that the deep state is getting exposed.
And little satan is attacking statues of St.Mary, worldwide. I never worship any statue ,
but I have a picture of my wife in my wallet , Is that idol worship ?
No, I just like being reminded of a very good woman. And Mary was just that too.
We humans certainly are a violent bunch of morons. That’s for sure. Thanks, Rick! – JL
Time To Step Up Support For Taiwan
https://medium.com/@nikkihaley/time-to-step-up-support-for-taiwan-c0205225577e
AMEN! For far too long, America has ignored the plight of the Taiwanese. If China is allowed to invade Taiwan, the world will be in great peril. Thank you for sharing that, Paul. – JL
John,
I’ve been hearing a lot lately from various sources about Jupiter and a comet debris field on course for Earth around September. Supposedly there is a debris field that “may have been” a planet destroyed in times past. And perhaps a comet from this debris field has struck Jupiter, affecting it’s axis.
Additionally, this debris field passes Earth every so many thousands of years (I don’t remember the exact number given) and that it is going to pass by and affect Earth (mainly North and South America) around September-October. And furthermore, NASA is preparing for the worst, hence COVID lockdowns as pretext to control population movements and mass chaos.
I normally don’t pay attention to this kind of thing but I have recently heard mention of Jupiter and meteor fields from 3 unrelated sources over the last week. The end result of said meteors hitting this area of the world would be the break up of what is left of the US is 3 distinct areas. Have you heard of any of this and what are your thoughts?
Dan B.
Hi Dan B.,
What has been going on in space is important, and I’ve been paying attention to what astronomers are telling us. And, there is little truth to rumors about this debris field. Yes, there are objects in near Earth orbit that we are off-and-on concerned about, but not like this.
NASA is NOT concealing dangers from outer space. They couldn’t if they tried, since there are far too many telescopes looking out into the sky. For instance, most astronomical discoveries have been made by amateurs with their own telescopes.
So, please ignore this ‘debris field’ thing. It’s just another hoax.
I hope that helps, Dan.
Yours in Christ,
John Little

John,
And another theory I listened to attached to the supposed destroyed planet was that it was Lucifer’s planet, destroyed prior to the fall and prior to the Garden (Pre-Adamic).
Dan B.
Do not believe anything that Dan Quayle says, unless you heard it from another reliable source, first. Quayle has been producing one hoax after another since the ’80s. And, he never, ever apologizes when he’s proven wrong. Ever. – JL
Steve, not Dan?
Wait… oh, right. Yes. I meant Steve. Ouch. (No one ever listens to Dan.) Thanks. – JL
