Greater Risk of Nuclear War

In listening to and watching the news, and as one studies the Bible, we are very much aware that we are in the last day, and that these, 'signs' are very real. We look at what is happening around the world and see how everything is fitting into place. The day we are living in is one of great expectation for us who are saved, and who are ready to fly when the trumphet is sounded, yet we also know, that it is not very good for our own nation in the direction that we are going. It is as though we have turned our backs on God, just as we can see in Deuternomy where God warns the people what would happen if they turned to other Gods.

Speaking at the Nuclear Security Conference Tuesday, U.S. President Barack Obama told epresentatives of 47 nations that the risk of nuclear war in the world was much higher now than it had been in the past. "Two decades after the end of the Cold War, we face a cruel irony of history - the risk of a nuclear confrontation between nations has gone down but the risk of a nuclear attack has gone up," Obama said, adding that it would be a “worldwide tragedy” if terror groups like Al-Qaida got hold of nuclear weapons.

And on another note, Iran said Tuesday that it expects to join the “world nuclear club” within a month. A report quoted Behzad Soltani, deputy head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, as saying that “No country would even think about attacking Iran after Iran's membership in the club.” A 360 megawatt nuclear power plant that will produce nuclear power is almost finished, he said.

But what really caught my attention was the next statement. Soltani added that Iran would use its nuclear power not just for energy. “Our next step would be expanding use of this technology for purposes other than energy and fuel production so that foodstuff, proteins and vegetables are preserved for a longer time and with a higher quality through radiation," he said.

Now if you truly believe that, I have a piece of 'prime ocean front property' for SALE in Utah.

And I saw this article concerning the temple.

The Temple Institute, engaged in education, research, and development towards the Holy Temple in accordance with Biblical law, recently held its 29th annual Temple Institute Passover Symposium, under the banner of "Integrating Modern Technology into the Holy Temple." Issues discussed included questions such as, “Will massive digital screens allow worshippers to observe the work of the High Priest from a great distance? Will computers be used to keep track of the sacrifices, public and private? Will special impurity-proof buses be used to transport Passover pilgrims and their Paschal offerings?” (IsraelNationalNews.com)

Now I can just imagine what those who are against overheads and power point presentations in worship services, will have to say about this one. I am laughing of course.

Well, tomorrow those going to the Holy Land will be flying out of Myrtle Beach, to walk in the paths where our Savior has walked. Be praying for the saftey and health of all going. Follow us on the blog each day.

It will be a 'Good Day To Fly.'
