Personal update and some news

It has now been 2 weeks since I was moved to the 7^th floor of the hospital to receive physical therapy and occupational therapy. The therapists were wonderful, friendly, and helpful in every way. I was tested today on a number of issues and proved to be much better and stronger than when I first arrived. I am encouraged at the progress, even though it is somewhat slow.

Nonetheless, I still need more time to gain strength in my legs. My home has too many stairs in it, and so I really do not want to go home until I have gained more strength. So we inquired around and found another facility where we can do up to 20 days of physical therapy that is covered by Medicare insurance. Tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. I will transfer directly to the new facility.

None of this affects the ministry work, of course. My boys continue to handle the office work, and I can easily instruct them by phone when necessary. As you can see, with my laptop I can continue to write weblogs and updates from wherever I am. My only restriction is that I do not have access to my library, so it is not yet feasible to do any Bible commentaries.

Meanwhile, much progress is being made in South Africa. This week there are 5 big issues/projects that are all culminating at the same time. The size and scope of these are of such magnitude that they each take time. Yet it is interesting they have all converged in Cape Town, the main place where I visited in 2008. It appears that my presence there in 2008 somehow set the stage for what is happening now.

The “black swan” landed in China earlier this week about two days after I posted a warning. A black swan event is an unexpected and seemingly impossible event, usually of a financial nature. The term was coined centuries ago before men discovered that black swans actually do exist in Australia. I saw them some years ago during my visits to Australia.

At any rate, the collapse of China’s huge real estate giant, Evergrande, is causing ripple effects around the world, as many banks, hedge funds, and pension funds were invested in Evergrande. These will probably see their investment down to zero or near zero.

Watch also King Charles, who has cancer. It is not likely that he will return to his royal functions. This too will have far-reaching implications as chaos takes hold of the House of Windsor.

Watch Joe Biden, too. My sources say that he has cancer and will probably not fulfill his current term of office. Think of how this could affect the scheduled election in November.

RFK, Jr is about to make a startling move in his run for president as an Independent candidate.

A high-level rabbinical source tells us that our book on Zionism has made its way to virtually all of the world leaders around the world. This rabbi is himself non-Zionist, and he says that this book in emboldening many other groups of non-Zionist Jews to challenge the Zionist narrative.

Netanyahu’s genocidal war on the Palestinian people is forcing the issue to the surface in a way that no one else could have done. He has awakened the whole world as to the need for a Palestinian state—as the UN resolution in 1947 called for. Netanyahu accepts only half of that resolution, the half that calls for a homeland for Jews. But now he wants it all and is already making plans to invade the West Bank as well, leaving the Palestinians with no place to live.

The world is objecting to this more than ever before. Netanyahu is desperately trying to get the US to attack Iran/Persia on their behalf. But Iran is half way around the world from the USA. All we could do is send a few missiles their way. We have no way of actually defeating Iran with ground troops. Worse yet, US forces are now bombing places in Iraq, including Baghdad itself. Iraq has demanded that US troops leave Iraq, but the US won’t do so. The US is becoming the pariah state of the world, along with Israel.

You know, of course, how I believe this will all end. The prophets make it clear that Jerusalem will be destroyed and never be rebuilt again (Jeremiah 19:10, 11). Zionism is the great rival of the Kingdom of God. It is the harlot pretending to be the bride. Our mission is to track the progress of prophecy so that we will be ready to establish God’s Kingdom in the earth as He enables us.
