Intermission is over, and the actors have taken their places. The first notes of the orchestra have begun to play. So, as I look through the program notes, I have a question:
Is this the last act?
The one before Gog and Magog?
It’s hard to know, but there is one thing happening right now, that you need to pay attention to:
Oil
Unless we can paper over the cracks again, the next few months are going to be a problem.

For the past nine years, I have been dreading the moment when the average person realizes that we have entered permanent decline – because that is when World War III starts. Governments have been trying to avoid this by investing in ‘green energy’, but it hasn’t worked. And, unless an extraordinary breakthrough happens soon, the future of our civilization is toast.
Burnt toast. Extra black.
We’ve spent a lot of money on fusion reactor research, but nothing has really worked. We still have good ol’ fission, which we call nuclear, but there are limits to how far we can go with that. Wind energy isn’t cost-effective, and solar only works when the sun is out.
Oh, and fracking?
Yeah. Big failure. Oil and natural gas fracking companies are almost universally bankrupt. And, it has become more and more clear that they will stay bankrupt. Governments might throw money at these companies, to keep the flow of oil coming, but that’s the only way that we’ll be able to maintain any viable level of oil production.
For more on the failures of Green Energy, see this:
The Myths of Green Energy
https://dailyreckoning.com/the-myths-of-green-energy/
All of that leaves us with an increasingly bitter future of less energy, less manufacturing, less wealth and less food. It will be the death of big cities and private transportation. You will also make less money, while everything becomes more and more expensive. Governments will get less money in taxes, so they’ll either try to take more of what you earn or try to print the money that they need.
Unfortunately, there’s a limit to how much of that they can do before something breaks, and everything falls apart. This is when governments send their people to war, and I was hoping that we could avoid that for a little longer.
This graph seems to indicate that the inevitable is almost here:
That graph is from this ZeroHedge article:
Towards $100 Oil
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/towards-100-oil
The direction of that graph is unsettling – especially, when you realize that we haven’t even hit the ‘Summer Driving Season’ yet. And, we’ve only just now started to see a reopening of the economy from the ‘lock down’ imposed on us by hysterical governments.
Once the economy takes off again, the price of oil will shoot through the roof. The rise in oil prices will fuel (pun intended) a rise in the cost of everything. This ‘cost-push inflation’ will cause another collapse, a lot like the financial crisis of 2007. This will lead to more and more unrest.
And, just like World War I and World War II, someone, somewhere will start a war that will drag us all into the abyss. Both world wars were about oil, and we came very close to a third world war in 1973.
For half a year, OPEC punished The West for helping save Israel from annihilation. That’s when people started talking about an invasion of Saudi Arabia. I remember some of that. And, the threat of invasion was probably why OPEC eventually stopped their oil embargo.
This time, OPEC will be producing and selling as much oil as it can, but it won’t be enough. Europe, North America and East Asia will be left with a painful choice:
Go to war, or watch their power collapse.
Europe has already chosen the path of military weakness, having trusted the American military industrial complex to defend them. But, America is on its own path of military decline, and this has everyone in Asia worried. Everyone.
From the Middle East to Japan, Asia is preparing for the worst. And, they’re all worried about China. And while we watch China, Gog and Magog will be coming. And, with that fulfillment of Ezekiel 38 and 39, Ezekiel’s Fire will come and knock everything flat.
Civilization as we know it today, will cease to exist.
That’s why the acceleration in the price of oil concerns me so much. It will eventually lead to world war and the death of a large percentage of our world’s population. World War II was the most destructive war in world history. This next war will be like nothing that we have ever seen in human history.
It’s only a question of WHEN.

Hi John,
indeed, this is the last act.
You have probably noticed this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHBDF_3Dk_k
It’s mostly about science, but we can hear Ben saying: “…the best bet is we have 10-20 years until the next age of Earth begins”. He’s talking about Micronova. Seal six. And, thanks to the Bible, we know what happens before. 20 years from now I will be 68. It could be much faster though, and we can see where are we now. So, we are going to see all of that, definitely (assuming we are still alive, of course).
Personally, the message of the Bible is (for me) the most precise, and enough by far. God loves us, and we have been warned and informed. With extreme, incomparable precision. It’s so sad that so many tend to ignore it. Even atheists have a lot to ignore. Apart from what Ben says, yesterday I was cleaning my bookshelf. By so-called accident I opened “Timaeus” (by Plato). Guess what, even there is something for those who decide to ignore things. I’ll leave it below, with no comment.
Yours in Christ
Chris
“O Solon, Solon, you Hellenes are never anything but children, and there is not an old man among you. Solon in return asked him what he meant. I mean to say, he replied, that in mind you are all young; there is no old opinion handed down among you by ancient tradition, nor any science which is hoary with age. And I will tell you why. There have been, and will be again, many destructions of mankind arising out of many causes; the greatest have been brought about by the agencies of fire and water, and other lesser ones by innumerable other causes. There is a story, which even you have preserved, that once upon a time Paethon, the son of Helios, having yoked the steeds in his father’s chariot, because he was not able to drive them in the path of his father, burnt up all that was upon the earth, and was himself destroyed by a thunderbolt. Now this has the form of a myth, but really signifies a declination of the bodies moving in the heavens around the earth, and a great conflagration of things upon the earth, which recurs after long intervals…”
Ah yes, the haters. (And, Plato) How ironic that we never learn. I am amazed at how short-sighted we all are. Tomorrow will be as today, except better. My hope is that you and your wife have those 20 years, Chris. We’ll see what happens. – JL
