G20 Approves Currency Depreciation
"...making the ephah small and the shekel great, falsifying the balances by deceit."--Amos 8:5
The finance ministers of the G20 met in Istanbul. The world is in financial turmoil and the economic structure is tottering under the weight of unrelenting debt.
What did the finance ministers do? They held an extraordinary vote. They backed currency depreciation as a tool for promoting growth through an aggressive continuance--even an increase--in the current easy-money policy. All this is designed to boost the world economy.
There is a problem. By current fiat measurement, this depreciation will allow them to say they have a five, six even 7% growth rate come the end of 2014. It will allow them to pat themselves on the back and reassure each other they know what they are doing.
But it will all be a deception to maintain the status quo. It will devastate the purchasing power of the fiat you have in hand or will earn. It will, indeed, fulfill the prophesy foretold in Amos as recorded above. But it will allow the global currencies to continue their unwavering rush to self-destruction.
Besides a false measure of economic growth what else does the decision provide? For one thing it makes the monstrous debt burden these countries have racked up more manageable, at least in their eyes.
What is forgotten is this vote will impoverish even more people, putting greater demands on the entitlement programs in place and will ultimately and inevitably lead to even more debt. Debt that must be addressed quite soon.
The finance ministers are extremely worried that Greece will be the world's "Lehman Moment." It states quite clearly the world financial leaders know for certain that the current money-printing program is an abject failure. But like a desperate gambler unable to help himself, instead of backing down and admitting their gamble failed, they double down in a wild last effort to save something.
In actuality the ministers had been plotting this move since China announced consumer prices rose at an annual pace of .8% last month. This "accommodative monetary policy" was implemented as a tool to forestall global deflation, to pressure China's central bank to cut interest rates and expand credit with its brethren and, ultimately, achieve a solid economic growth rate--if only on paper.
It's a funny thing about a ruinous policy. It doesn't matter the scale on which it is undertaken, it always leads to ruin. The G20 ministers missed that aspect of their gambit.
Thus, instead of the short-term (six years in the U.S. case) spending and temporary stimulus programs, the G20 ministers will enact long-term, open ended stimulus programs. Simon Johnson, professor at MIT's Sloan School of Management and someone who should know the harmful effects of an unrestricted printing press since he surely studied the Weimar Republic's disastrous example noted, "the finance ministers appear to be trying to reduce tensions over perceived competitive devaluations by saying its for the collective good."
Golly! doesn't that sound like Mao, or Stalin, Hitler or Marie Antoinette, doing something for the common good even if it is destructive? What he and the rest of the learned, elitist economist class have missed is Amos recorded the results of this type of deception 2700 years ago.
This is a very tricky situation because nobody has figured out how to pull the over-printed fiat out of circulation that exists right now without crashing market values around the globe. Surely printing more will only add to the problem.
To paraphrase Sherlock Holmes, "the game is afoot. But methinks the game is about to end---very, very badly."
"I have sworn on the altar of God eternal hostility to every form of tyranny over the mind of man."--Thomas Jefferson

Krauthammer: Obama Trying ‘Regime Change’ in Israel
He said that’s Bush stuff, that is not — except in one place. The one place he’s actively trying to change the regime is in Israel. He’s doing everything he can to outmaneuver, to humiliate, to insult, to give the back of the hand to Bibi Netanyahu knowing that for any Israeli Prime Minister jeopardizing the US-Israeli relationship could be fatal at the polls, and that’s exactly what Obama is doing”

Recently, I received an email from one of your typical “Christian” bookstores. What struck me in this email, was they had a DVD for children asking the question about what was in the Bible, with a big fat obnoxious smiley faced “Jesus” on the front of it. If they really wanted to find out the truth of what is in the Bible, they would certainly not find a “Jesus” like that, but unfortunately, it didn’t stop there.
Shortly after that, I received another email from the same place advertising a Bible sale they had going on, where you could get the ESV “Action” Study Bible or if that didn’t suit your taste then there was the NIV “First-Century” Study Bible. Hey, and if that was not to your fancy either, then you could get the “Woman’s (Coffee Cup on the front cover) Devotional Bible” or the (Manly covered) “Every Man’s Bible.” Then of course there was the “Sportsman’s Bible” for all you “sports lovers” out there and if that still was not to your liking, then you could pick the “Guys Life Application Study Bible” to better suit your desires. This may sound like a bad joke, but I am not kidding, all of these Bibles are on their website and actually exist.
How about if you’re a teen? If you’re a teen then there is the “Teen Life Application Study Bible.” And kids don’t worry, if the “Action” Bible just didn’t cut it for you, we’ve got you covered with the “Adventure” Bible instead. We’ve got a “Jesus” for everybody. Whether you’re a man, woman, kid, Adventurer or prefer a bouquet of tulips on the front cover, there is a “Jesus” waiting for you exactly how you would prefer him to be, specifically for you! How sick!
The true Christ in the Bible did not suit Himself to be as we would like Him to be. He was as He IS. And as He is, so are we in this world (I John 4:17). He is as the Bible describes Him: The Alpha, the Omega, the Beginning and the End (Revelation 1:8). The Bright and Morning Star, the Prince of Peace, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah and the Man of WAR (For more see Isaiah 9: 6-7).
Jesus was not a pansy proclaiming some “cheesy” version of a false fluffy “love” and “peace” that does not exist except in the mind of (in truth) worldly “professed Christians” who are not true Christians at all. These “professed” believers are looking for their own style of “Jesus.” For the most part, the “Professed Christian Church” has the God of the Bible all wrong because they fail to read the Bible (in its context) for who Jesus is and what He really commanded.
The typical “church goer” goes to church every Sunday, hears a warm and cozy message about a false “love, peace & joy.” This comes from a pastor, who is really a hireling, who fails to mention that the God of the Bible demands holiness (Hebrews 12:14), obedience, perseverance, courage, strength, faith in Christ, and your own sense of nothingness and unworthiness within yourself.
I’ll bet the Lord is just sick and tired of people misrepresenting Him on a daily basis. Pretty much everyone, when you ask them, says they’re a “Christian.” However, the truth is that they don’t have the slightest inkling of who Christ truly is.
Well, “My pastor says that Christ is soft and gently like a lamb who loves me no matter what I do and that all who just try their best go to heaven.” Well, just because your pastor says it, doesn’t’ mean that it’s true.
Did your pastor also mention that the Lord is a Man of War, who will by no means acquit the wicked (Nahum 1:3)? Did he tell you that God is angry with the wicked everyday (Psalms 7:11)? Did he tell you that nowhere in the Bible did Christ ever tell his disciples that He “loved” them? No, Christ demonstrated His love for them and us by His actions (I John 3:18) when He died on the cross for sin! And when Jesus asked Peter in John 21:17 if he loved Him and Peter said, “Lord, You know everything! You know that I love You,” Jesus then told him to “Feed My sheep.” The Lord was asking Peter to demonstrate his love for Him by Peter obeying His commands (John 14:15).
For the most part, the American church has got it all wrong. They have created a “Jesus” that suits everybody. They have formed a god to suit everyone’s own sin and broken the Second Commandment in the process that says, “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image” (Exodus 20). That means, do not create a God to suit your sin.
Well you say, “I like my own version of Christianity.” Yes, well that is exactly what it is… your own and not Christ’s. “The Jesus that I believe in (Or rather that I have created in my mind) suits me.” I bet he does because he is your own homemade “Jesus” that suits your lawless lifestyle and does not exist.
Do not profess Christ to be any other way than how He is in the Bible. Do not take some pastor’s word for who Christ is – read the Bible for yourself. Wouldn’t that be the right thing to do if you really wanted to get the facts straight from the source? I am sick and tired of people misrepresenting the Christ of the Bible and I’m sure Jesus is too.
So, the next time you or someone you know tries to fashion an idol image of Jesus in your mind that does not exist, remember this, There ain’t no such thing as a homemade “Jesus.” If you cling to your own version of Christ, you will be sadly mistaken on Judgment Day!
