« C dans l'air » du 2 novembre France/ Angleterre : le retour des meilleurs ennemis Invités ANNE-ELISABETH MOUTET Éditorialiste - « The Daily Telegraph » PHILIP TURLE Journaliste britannique Chroniqueur international – « France 24 » CHRISTIAN ROUDAUT Journaliste Ancien correspondant en Grande-Bretagne pour Radio France CATHERINE MATHIEU Économiste à l'OFCE Spécialiste du Royaume-Uni et des questions européennes Le bras de fer entre la France et Royaume-Uni autour des licences de pêche continue, mais Paris veut « donner une chance » aux discussions. Les échanges sur ce dossier, qui oppose les deux pays depuis l'entrée en vigueur du Brexit, vont se poursuivre, a annoncé Emmanuel Macron, ce lundi 1er novembre, en marge de la COP26 qui se tient à Glasgow en Ecosse. La France a décidé de donner jusqu'à jeudi aux Anglais pour qu'ils accordent de nouvelles licences aux pêcheurs français. Une nouvelle réunion, à laquelle est conviée le secrétaire d'Etat britannique chargé du Brexit, David Frost, aura lieu à Paris. D'ici là, les mesures de rétorsion - qui devaient initialement être appliquées dès ce mardi 2 novembre - attendront car « ce n'est pas pendant qu'on négocie qu'on va mettre des sanctions ». « Les prochaines heures sont des heures importantes » et « j'ai compris que les Britanniques allaient revenir vers nous demain avec d'autres propositions », a assuré Emmanuel Macron. Le gouvernement britannique a de son côté « salué » le report des sanctions, disant se « féliciter que la France reconnaisse que des discussions approfondies sont nécessaires pour résoudre l'ensemble des difficultés de la relation entre le Royaume-Uni et l'UE». 48 heures, c'est donc le nouveau délais accordé aux Britanniques avant l'application des sanctions dans le conflit sur la pêche. Paris menace depuis plusieurs jours d'interdire aux navires de pêche britanniques de débarquer leurs cargaisons dans les ports français et de renforcer des contrôles douaniers de tous les camions si Londres n'accorde pas davantage de licences aux pêcheurs français. De son côté, le gouvernement britannique a indiqué que faute de solution dans les 48 heures, il s'appuierait sur le mécanisme de règlement des différends dans le cadre de l'accord commercial post-Brexit pour demander des « mesures compensatoires ». Londres a prévenu s'apprêter aussi à renforcer les contrôles des bateaux de pêche européens. Alors une désescalade est-elle possible ? Si des deux côtés de la Manche, l'heure est désormais à l'attente dans ce dossier, il est loin d'être le seul sujet de discorde entre les deux pays. Immigration illégale par la Manche, Brexit en Irlande du Nord…. Depuis le Brexit, le torchon brûle entre Paris et Londres. Pour Boris Johnson, tous les sujets sont bons pour une passe d'armes avec Emmanuel Macron. Confronté à de nombreuses difficultés intérieures, le Premier ministre britannique multiplie depuis des mois les attaques contre Paris, ce qui ravit la pesse populaire tabloïd de son pays. Emmanuel Macron accuse lui Boris Johnson d'avoir menti aux Britanniques sur le Brexit. L'Entente cordiale semble bien loin entre les deux nations alors que la situation se tend également en Irlande du Nord. Lundi, un bus a été attaqué et incendié par deux hommes masqués dans un quartier unioniste de Newtonards, une ville à l'est de Belfast. Des violences qui montrent une nouvelle fois que le feu couve dans la province britannique, où les conséquences du Brexit créent un sentiment de trahison chez les unionistes attachés à la couronne.

Chacun le constate au quotidien, les prix du carburant sont repartis à la hausse. Confrontés à un phénomène qui rogne leur pouvoir d'achat, les Français se demandent combien de temps il peut durer.Des prix qui s'envolentDurant la semaine du 11 octobre 2021, les principaux carburants ont encore connu une hausse à la pompe de 2 centimes. Ainsi, le prix du gazole continue de s'emballer : il a donc atteint, pendant cette semaine, le niveau record de 1,5583 euro le litre, contre 1,5354 la semaine précédente.Quand au prix de l'essence sans plomb, il se monte, pour la même période, à 1,62 euro le litre. Depuis le début de l'année, les prix des carburants ne cessent d'augmenter.En mai 2021, le prix du gazole affichait déjà une hausse de 20 % sur un an, et celui de l'essence sans plomb une augmentation de plus de 22 %, toujours sur un an.Une très forte demandeLa hausse continue des prix des carburants, depuis le début de l'année 2021, s'explique en grande partie par une forte augmentation de la demande mondiale de pétrole, dont le prix progresse rapidement. Or, le prix des carburants suit celui du pétrole.Cette hausse de la demande est due à la reprise économique consécutive à l'amélioration de la situation sanitaire. Les progrès notables de la vaccination, la mise en place du passe sanitaire et les mesures de confinement et de restriction de déplacement mises en place par les pouvoirs publics, ont permis de faire reculer l'épidémie de Covid-19.Après avoir connu, en 2020, une baisse drastique de leur activité, les entreprises veulent rattraper le temps perdu. C'est ce qui explique en partie une hausse de la demande que l'offre n'est pas encore en mesure de satisfaire.C'est pourquoi, d'après les spécialistes, cette hausse des prix des carburants devrait se poursuivre durant plusieurs mois. De toute façon, si on les en croit, ils devraient rester élevés dans les années à venir.Cette augmentation de la demande pourrait aussi s'expliquer par une tendance à remplacer le gaz, encore plus cher, par le pétrole, notamment pour les besoins en chauffage.

On this episode, we speak to Jonathon Porritt, author of ‘Hope in Hell: A Decade to Confront the Climate Emergency'. He discusses whether people can expect success or failure in an agreement being reached at COP26 that could turn the tide against climate change. He tackles fossil-fuel companies for lying about net zero targets, and addresses Boris Johnson's record on climate change, along with his recent comments rubbishing plastic recycling. Porritt also talks about the absence of Russia's Vladimir Putin and China's Xi Jinping from COP26, and much more. Finally, we speak to Changhua Wu, executive director of the Professional Association for China's Environment. She discusses the COP15 biodiversity conference and close cooperation between the UK and China on two issues. She assesses the significance of the COP26 summit being held in Glasgow, and looks at how China is being blamed for the climate crisis despite taking massive strides in renewable energy production for the world. She asks how seriously US envoy John Kerry is taken, why no country is doing enough to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees, and much more.

Lisa is solo today and is joined by Marianne Larned to talk about COP26 in Glasgow where young climate activists from around the world prepare to confront world leaders with their demands.  #WorldisWatching  Young people from Argentina, Mexico, Nepal, the Philippines, Russia, Uganda, the US, and countries worldwide are traveling to Scotland as  youth delegates to the United Nations COP26 -- the most historic climate conference of their lifetime -- where they will present their demands to world leaders.  They are painfully aware that our world is at a crossroads - and COP26 is a watershed moment.  They've experienced firsthand the devastating impact of the climate crisis on their people, and on their countries.

Preserved From the Beast (16) (Audio) David Eells - 10/20/21 They Shall Not Prevail Against Thee David Eells - 10/16/21 On 10/16/21, I asked for a word by faith at random for what is happening NOW.  Jer 15:20-21  And I will make thee unto this people a fortified brazen wall; and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith Jehovah.  21  And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible. I had written, in brackets, a side note that I had received this on 3/17/19. This timing was in our last program already as a past delay that will end in these days. So the wicked faction will fail to catch the Davids for God is with them. And Cyrus/Trump will help them to rebuild the Kingdom. That same night, 10/16/21 I had a vivid dream. I saw several rag-tag disheveled looking people chasing me and in the dream I thought “for what?”. (The answer is because the dragon wants to devour the Davids) They were shooting at me with buckshot. (Scatter shot represents various slanders.) (Psalm 17:8-13 Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me under the shadow of thy wings, 9 From the wicked that oppress me, My deadly enemies, that compass me about. 10 They are inclosed in their own fat: With their mouth they speak proudly.  11 They have now compassed us in our steps; They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth. 12 He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, And as it were a young lion lurking in secret places. 13 Arise, O Jehovah, Confront him, cast him down: Deliver my soul from the wicked by thy sword. The Lord is coming in a garment stained with the blood of the factious Edomites. As the DS criminals are being executed after military tribunals, so will be the deep church criminals as our dreams and words have shown.) Their leader was shorter than the rest of them. (This represents the stunted maturity of the factious leadership.) To make up for this he had on a tall, 10 gallon hat (representing his inflated ego).  I was easily avoiding them as they ran around feverishly trying to kill me. (Our intel in dreams and visions and Words that the Father gives to us to warn us of their plans is far better than theirs. They plan a big slander attack and theft. His assistant spies on us everywhere but nothing will save them. Mat. 10:23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone through the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.) Then I saw that a ferocious Lion was chasing them.  Their guns were useless against him as he devoured them one by one. (Isa 62:11-63:3  Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.  12  And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah: and thou shalt be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.  63:1  Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? (Edoms sheepfold) this that is glorious in his apparel, marching in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.  2  Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat?  3  I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment. The Lord is coming in His Man-child body to fulfill Isa 61:2 to proclaim the year of Jehovah's favor, (Jesus quoted up to this point) and the day of vengeance of our God; (Jesus didn't speak this last phrase underlined when He came the first time as a Lamb, but this time He is coming as a Lion with vengeance against our enemies.) to comfort all that mourn; 3 to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; (The Bride will cease mourning and be full of joy when this comes.) that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified. 4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. (The Man-child and Bride will rebuild the Davidic Kingdom that was destroyed by the apostates.) (This dream is a confirmation of the faction and their little boss chasing me like the dragon trying to devour the Man-child but failing and being devoured by the Lion of Judah, Jesus Christ.)    Dealing with the Factious David Eells - 6/5/11 Though this happened in 2011 it fits a pattern ever since. Back then I had a very unusual and memorable vision early in the morning. I saw myself as a normal person in a cartoon. I was in a long, log cabin cartoon house. I heard a voice warning, "David, the dragon has sent the "ink-lies" against you”. (Meaning slander) I opened the door on one end of the cartoon cabin and looked to my left. (Where Jesus put the goats.)  I saw a cartoon dragon with his head stuck into a back window of the cabin all the way up to his shoulders. Most of what I saw outside was the tail of the dragon.  As I saw this, the dragon pulled his head out and faced me. I then saw cartoon, black letters, black characters, sneaking through the house from the back window.   As I came out of this vision, the Lord gave me the interpretation. The long, log cabin house is UBM in the wilderness. The dragon is the local part of the corporate beast inhabited by Satan, as in Revelation 12. The prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail (Isa.9:15). The mouth of the dragon was in the house speaking lies, which were turning into black text, the "ink-lies”.  The faction dragon is He who does not come through the door, which are these self appointed fakes, “but climbeth up some other way" coming into the back of the house, as Jesus said in John 10:1. He was coming through the window in the back as a thief who comes to steal, as Jesus also said: (10:10) The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.  These thieves, of course, are the ones who are not sent by the Lord; they speak lies to seek to steal a position of leadership and the people's hearts away from those who come through the door of Jesus.  How do they sneak in the back way? Matthew 18:15 tells them to first face the person they are accusing but they go first to the saints, which is the third step in verse 17. They are as a thief going to the saints first. They are called “Backstabbers” in the Word. They know their lies wont stand up to truth so they are told to avoid David.  We have had a parade of these people the last few years.  It is a cartoon because it is not a thing to be feared. It is God cleansing the church, because the wicked in heart listen to these people and separate from the righteous, for "an evil doer giveth heed to lying lips". It is also for the purpose of crucifying the true leaders, as was done with Jesus, the apostles, and the prophets throughout history. A brother shared a dream with us. He said, “I was in a long classroom with many UBM brethren. I was near the front of the class when I saw a person enter the rear of the room and begin to speak to each person from the back going toward the front.  I was apprehensive because this person is well-known to us as a lying, factious slanderer who sought a position of authority in UBM and was angry when David stood in his way. I tried to call David to warn him but couldn't get through.  Then David came into the room, as an 8-year-old man-child, and rebuked this slanderer. David said, "In the name of Jesus, get out of here!" and factious slanderer left the room. (The 8-year-old Man-child is the pre-anointed Man-child who is 30 years old when anointed. Little David kept his Father's flocks before He became king. He slew the beasts, the lion and bear, who sought to take the sheep by stealth.)   Then David followed him out and he and another man-child began to fight with the slanderer. End of dream. (This all sounds very much like my vision. We never suspected this person would come back to fulfill this dream but that there were others with his same factious spirits who, through factious slander or divisive criticism, would seek to usurp authority in the assembly.) Of course, casting these people out is commanded to keep them from leavening the whole body. {1Co.5:7} Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, [even] Christ: {8} wherefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth …  {11} but as it is, I wrote unto you not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be ... a reviler (speaking against the brethren) ... with such a one no, not to eat. {12} For what have I to do with judging them that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within? {13} But them that are without God judgeth. Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.  {2Th.3:6} Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which they received of us ... {14} And if any man obeyeth not our word by this epistle, note that man, that ye have no company with him, to the end that he may be ashamed. In cases where there is rejection and factious criticism involved, you won't have to cast them out; they will leave because of their own demonic unforgiveness and bitterness. We also do this "that they may be ashamed" and repent, because if they do not, they will die like the murmurers and complainers did in the wilderness in Numbers 14. Also, in Numbers 16, the usurpers of Moses' authority in the Korah, Dathan and Abiram rebellion died in the wilderness. They forsook assembling together with the saints because of their offense and Moses called the assembly to separate from them or partake of their judgments, just as we should today. After this dream, Gerard received two dreams which he had received a week apart that torturers were sneaking into the body through the back way to torture the UBM brethren. In one of the dreams, we were running a huge ship to carry brethren to the refuge while this was happening. In the other, the brethren were seeking to hide in a large van and the torturers were sneaking in the back door as one of them held it open. All of this warning, in just a little over a week, lets you know the devil's plan of attack. The Bible tells you to report these sly actions to the elders and mark or make known such persons. Under the guise of concerned persons, they air their murmurings and complaining until the listener's heart is poisoned against others or often the leadership. {Rom.16:17} Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them that are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which ye learned: and turn away from them. {18} For they that are such serve not our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.  Jesus, speaking to the body, said that worldly members of the body who cause stumbling should be cut off so the whole body isn't cast into hell. {Mat.18:7} Woe unto the world because of occasions of stumbling! for it must needs be that the occasions come; but woe to that man through whom the occasion cometh!  {8} And if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed or halt, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire. {9} And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire. These factious, critical people were reported to the elders in the scriptures and must be reported today also, (just as in Lanita Sue Creech's dream.) {1Co.1:11} For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by them [that are of the household] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. {11:18} For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and I partly believe it. {19} For there must be also factions among you, that they that are approved may be made manifest among you.  Notice that the disobedient will be known when this happens because those who are approved will be manifested through their obedience. {1Jn.2:19} They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but [they went out], that they might be made manifest that they all are not of us. Since the primary reason is usually faction or division for the sake of lifting up 'self' to usurp authority. (Most of the people who led factions were never an elder. They ordained themselves; giving themselves titles.) You should admonish such a one twice -- the first and second time they speak factiously before separating from them, even if they have been a friend, because we must do it for the sake of the body. {Tit.3:10} A factious man after a first and second admonition refuse; {11} knowing that such a one is perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned. (We have found that people who don't obey this command are captured by the demons.) Notice we are told in these verses to turn away from them or refuse them. (In my experience, when a person disobeys this or receives an accusation against an elder without witnesses or doesn't turn the railer or reviler around by asking them if they have gone to the person's face, as Matthew 18:15 commands, the listener then gets the factious demons and is separated from the body. This cleanses the body. It is a trial from God to see who will obey and who should be separated because of their own sin. Why is God sending this trial now? Because many more souls are coming to take refuge among the saints as a safe place. When they come, the lion and bear shouldn't be there waiting for innocent souls. The shepherd who permits this leaves the back door of the fold open and is as guilty as the factious and may well get that spirit.) I have seen a consistent pattern over the years; a common scenario that happens when people suddenly rise up against our ministry. It is a common M.O. and trap that the devil has laid for them. It goes something like this: A person with rejection and fear of rejection is oppressed by these spirits for many years and so earnestly desires the opposite -- respect, admiration, being looked up to, feeling important, being a leader, etc.  Finally, one day the opportunity comes for them to be in the spotlight and they like the feeling. They get a rush when they are promoted by others or promote themselves to others. So they go after it by seeking the glory from men.  Sometimes they see a shepherd whom they think stands in their way and they begin to tear him down behind the scenes. It really doesn't matter to them that this minister has given their all to serve them and deliver them from darkness and that he is holy in the Lord's eyes.  Soon the persons whom they spoke to begin to withdraw from this shepherd because their hearts are poisoned with whispering, nitpicking and slander. When the shepherd searches for the source of all this and faces them with their sin, they feel once again the pain of these lying spirits who turn even kind correction into rejection and fear of rejection. So, in self-will they retaliate against the shepherd, their old friend, weirdly seeing him as the enemy when all he has done is good toward them and loved them. And he wonders what happened. Why have my good friends done this to me? Why have they deserted me? Hoping not to bring public and personal rebuke to those who already have rejection, the shepherd seeks to inoculate his flock with teaching so the disease doesn't spread, as shepherds must do. The offended bring up all kinds of things that are not sins against the shepherd because the devil is seeking to destroy him and his reputation through them. And they want to separate disciples unto themselves.  They are immature and puffed up and, contrary to the Biblical methods, acting as though God has ordained them to be elders and to take authority over the one who has been a shepherd for many years. They account this shepherd unworthy of forgiveness which they want for themselves but now have lost. In these cases, Matthew 18:15-17 has to be finally and painfully observed. They twist the scriptures to prove a point that doesn't account for anything but it is simply an excuse to seek their own glory. When one with rejection starts factious criticism, it is for the sake of self-glory. They sow a spirit of discord, which God says He hates.  They are like Esau, who was a son of Abraham/Isaac, and sold his birthright by following the flesh and persecuting the elect. They become unholy and unreliable before God and don't have the humility or conscience to repent and restore the damage they have done. "He that returneth evil for good, evil will not depart from his house”.  Jesus said, {Joh.5:41} I receive not glory from men. {42} But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in yourselves. {43} I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. {44} How can ye believe, who receive glory one of another, and the glory that [cometh] from the only God ye seek not? …  {8:50} But I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. ... {54} Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God. ... {12:43} for they loved the glory [that is] of men more than the glory [that is] of God. They fail the test in the wilderness and accuse Moses, who gave his life for them and suffered much to bring them out of Egypt. And like in Korah's rebellion, God was angry and swallowed them up alive. Most of these people just become swallowed alive by the earth of their flesh, being darkened in their understanding as they wander further from the truth and are tormented by the tormentors. Some of them die by diseases, too.  God told me He would curse those who cursed me and He has always been true to that Word but I don't desire this for my brethren and pray for mercy for them. These people almost never confess their sins for fear of rejection and so they are never cleansed of unrighteousness (1Jn 1:9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.). They are factious, critical and they spread discord, dividing people unto themselves by self-willed opinions, which is the definition of the Greek word for "heresies". Important reading to avoid faction: Deliverance from Rejection and Its Fear   Separating the Factious from the Righteous Belinda - 10/04/2011 (David's notes in red) At 4:30 a.m. this morning, I had a vision: It was dark, but in the darkness I saw a house. The house was shining very brightly on the right side; it appeared to be glowing. I saw people gathered in a circle; they were very tall and they seemed at peace. They were praying and singing praises to the Lord. (This is the UBM house and in a larger type the house of God. They were on the right side because they were sheep which Jesus put on the right. That side was shining brightly because the glory of God is there. They were tall because they were big and mature in the ways of the Lord.) On the left side of the house it was very dark and smoke was coming out of the walls. The people looked like dwarves. They were angry and agitated, and they kept pacing back and forth. (The left is, of course, those who act as goats, which Jesus put on His left. It was very dark because they are walking in darkness. Smoke is coming out of the walls because their sanctification is being destroyed by the judgment of God that is upon them. They were dwarves because they have been stunted in their growth and are small even according to man's standards. They are angry and agitated because they are full of faction, anger, slander, wrath, etc. They are pacing back and forth because they are nervous and stirred up by these spirits.) There was a door that separated the two sides of the house. There were no handles on either side of this door. (God has made a separation between the righteous and the factious. They may not get at the truly righteous who obey His Word to separate from them and we may not minister to them, for God has given them over to this reprobation for now.) The people on the left were angry because they could not figure out how to get this door open to get at the people on the other side. (The goats have been bitter and angrily trying to get at the righteous with their slander.) They wanted to stop those people from singing and praising the Lord. (The demons hate peace and praise among the righteous.) There was a crack about 3/4 of the way down through the center of the house. It looked like at any time the house would split apart. (This is the spiritual earthquake we have seen that is separating those who walk in sin from the refuge and Bride. The separation will soon be physical and those who do not repent will leave our house as a purified house. The Lord said to me, as I meditated on this, that His foot is pushing down on the left side of the house. Looks like possibly there is a quarter of the way left to go but as the weight of their sin becomes greater they will break off. Father has been showing us for several years through dreams, visions and prophecy that an army of demons would make war with UBM and myself in an attempt to destroy our influence on Earth but at the same time we were shown we would become greater in holiness, power and ministry.) I noticed that the right side of the house was firmly on the foundation, whereas the left side of the house had no ground under it. I thought to myself, if that house splits all the way, the left side is going to fall and there's nothing to catch it! (They are not founded on the rock of God's Word but "on the sand" of the abyss and Jesus said, concerning the fall of that house, great was the fall thereof (Mat.7:24-27). Unforgiveness has taken away grace from them for which only Hell awaits without repentance. At that time, we were told by the factious leaders, in emails and in front of the assembly, that they would leave peaceably but they lied because they had their eye on carving up UBM for themselves from the cover of darkness, which failed. God also had His plan to separate those who could give in to these lusts and so He has. We pray constantly for our brethren that they would come to repentance and we know that some will.)    Lion/Iron Man VS. Predator Eve Brast - 9/22/21 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that UBM was located in an old house with dark blue, textured carpeting. We were all there waiting for something to happen. (The old house represents following the ancient paths and clinging to the Word that we heard from the beginning. I believe we were waiting for the anointing of the Man-child ministries and the 7 year tribulation to begin.) David (Representing the pre-anointed Man-child Davids) was there standing in the midst of us and I was holding a brown paper bag in my right hand. It was rolled down at the edges and had unshelled peanuts in it to eat. It was only a quarter full. (In the natural, the food supply is dwindling because of a DS engineered famine. This has been happening slowly over the past 1 1/2 years since the lockdowns began. Spiritually speaking, Our Deep Church has done what they could to destroy the food in the granaries for the 7 years of famine by taking down our website and videos but they have failed. As we will see later on in this dream, the Man-child Jesus is coming to expound on the revelations we've received at UBM and His Word. He will increase our spiritual food.) As I pulled out a peanut, I noticed that they looked like Brazil nuts but were white in color. I ate it and it tasted funny to me and different than a usual peanut. I offered some to one of the brethren standing near me and as I did this some of them fell on the floor. The peanuts began transforming into locusts and were crawling around slowly on the carpet. (In the natural, this could represent famine taking over our food supply. It didn't happen suddenly in the dream but more gradually. Spiriually speaking, the factious leadership in the Church has created a lack of the food of the kingdom; the good news of the Gospel. These locusts represent the Northern army of Joel 1 & 2.) Then I walked out to the front yard where there was a brown shed like the one in David's backyard at his house in real life; only this shed was older. I went inside the shed and climbed onto a large bed that  Anna Stewart was sitting on. (Anna means: grace or favor. And Stewart means: household guardian. She represents the first fruits Bride company.)  The bed had all white sheets and bedding (Representing resting in sanctification) and took up the entire space inside the shed except for about a 2 foot space between the foot of the bed and the entrance of the shed. (This represents a place of safety and rest which the Bride has learned to come into in all her trials and preparations to be able to minister the Gospel; The Real Good News, in the wilderness tribulation.) As we sat together ‘Indian style' near the foot of the bed talking, I looked down at the floor of the shed between the end of the bed and the front door and noticed the same dark blue textured carpeting that had been inside the old house. I was also still carrying the brown bag of peanuts in my right hand. I noticed a bunch of fire ants and 'peanut locusts' from the house crawling around on the carpet in the shed. (These represent the spiritual fiery darts of the enemy and the physical trials of famine and food shortages and also the locusts who have devoured God's people in Joel 1) I was wearing these bright white socks on my feet and complaining to Anna that every time I tried to put my left foot down onto the carpet, the fire ants would all swarm onto my white sock and try to bite me through the sock even though they couldn't bite me. She replied, “Well, why are you doing that? Just don't do it.” I then realized how ridiculous my complaining was and how unnecessary that trial was since I didn't have to set my foot down onto the carpet at all. We were supposed to stay on the bed anyway since it took up the entire space inside the shed and the fire ants and locusts couldn't come onto the bed even if they'd wanted to! (This represents getting out of the continual rest that we are commanded to stay in by faith. When we focus on what the enemy is trying to do or the problems around us, we are putting our feet down and walking on the earth. We are not walking in heavenly places with Christ. This causes us to blow the situations out of proportion in our minds and we end up in fear, doubt and complaining to God and putting ourselves through trials that we didn't have to go through to begin with.) I felt silly for looking for something to complain about and putting myself through a trial that I didn't have to go through and said, “Well, that's true! You're right. I don't have to put my foot down there.” After a bit I knew it was time to go back into the house and when I went out of the shed, I looked over where the house used to be and it had transformed into a cave on the side of a sheer precipice of a mountain that was made up of one giant gray rock. (The Rock is Christ that followed the Israelites through the wilderness. The cave represents the cleft in the Rock where God's people are hidden and take refuge like in AA Allen's end-time vision of the cleft of the Rock.) It didn't seem like a naturally occurring cave but one that had been blasted out of the side of the mountain with dynamite. (This protection will be supernatural and not natural by the works of man's hands.) It was shallow and only extended back into rock about 30 feet. I don't know how I got over to the cave but I must have walked on the air because it was located high up on the side of the sheer precipice. (The way to this place of safety is spiritual and not by our own efforts to save ourselves.) UBM was in the cave and we had lots of boxes and wooden crates stacked up all over inside of the cave. They were full UBM materials, books and food supplies. But, I didn't see David anywhere. The world around us had changed so much in a short period of time and was much more evil and dangerous now. (As we will see, I believe David was somewhere (in a phone booth, lol,) turning into Lion Man. :o) In the dream I was having trouble with my heart, as were many others of my brethren in the cave. (Heart troubles represent our struggle with death to self and chasing the crucified life and the human weaknesses that our flesh nature tries to control us with; fear, doubt, unbelief etc... Even Jesus experienced this and overcame it in John 12:23-28, And Jesus answereth them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it die, it beareth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life loseth it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will the Father honor. 27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour (?). But for this cause came I unto this hour. 28 Father, glorify thy name. There came therefore a voice out of heaven, saying , I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.) As I was experiencing this ‘heart trouble' in the dream a super hero (I'll call Lion Man) suddenly appeared in the cave with us. His head was the head of a Lion with golden spun hairs intermingled with the hairs of His mane. He talked with a deep rich voice that was very dignified and regal. (Like James Earl Jones' voice). He was wearing a dark grey body suit (representing the crucified life of death to self) It had a circular Arc Reactor where His heart used to be (Like Tony Stark from Iron Man) only Lion Man's Arc Reactor was golden all around the edges. (The golden Arc Reactor could be a play on words for ARK which was where the power and presence of God rested during the Israelites time in the wilderness and also the place of safety for Noah and his family as it lifted off of the earth when the flood waters of judgment were released on the rest of mankind.) This Arc Reactor was the source of His super powers and emitted a bright light. (This represents the latter reign anointing of the Man-child ministers to lead and teach God's people through the first 3 1/2 years of the tribulation. The Lion of Judah, Jesus, is their head. In the movie, Iron Man, the character, Tony Stark, was wounded in the chest by shrapnel from an enemy attack, so he invented an electromagnetic Arc Reactor to prevent the shards of metal going into his heart and killing him. He then built a powerful body armor suit that was powered by the Arc Reactor in order to escape from his enemies that were holding him captive. This represents the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus that provides us with the armor of God so that we can have His same power to escape our enemies that try to take us captive.) Lion Man began taking slightly smaller, thinner replicas of His Arc Reactor and installing them in each of our chests with speed and precision. After this we didn't have anymore heart problems and we all had superpowers like Him. We all felt a new, inner power and faith surging through us and nothing felt impossible for us anymore. It was like we had a new invincibility to take on the new evil world that we were now surrounded by. (The Man-child ministers will pass on their anointing to the Bride so that she can pass it on to the elect of God in the wilderness tribulation.) Lion Man had David's Bible and He opened it up as we all gathered around Him to hear what He had to say. The pages were super white and all the words were in large print. He began expounding on the Word of God to us and we were understanding it like never before! The revelations and truths that He shared with us had been hidden up until that point. We were all blown away by the understanding and the knowledge He imparted to us.  He then broke open the crates with the UBM materials and opened up one of the books and the pages appeared as they do in the texts of the Bible Studies with David's notes in red. Lion Man was also expounding on the books as well. He began improving on David's notes and explaining further the interpretations of the revelations that David had received and it's like our minds were opened up to really understand the things of God. (Lion man represents the latter reign anointed Man-child and He is explaining the David's former reign anointed teachings.) With the latter reign anointing will come deeper and greater understanding and application of the Word of God and bring us more power to increase the Kingdom of God.) After this, He told us that our mission was to go and bring food and the UBM materials to all the children that belonged to Him. Sometimes it would just be a delivery and other times we were there to rescue the children from their abusive parents or captors and bring them back to the cave with us. (Many of God's elect have been starved and or abused spiritually by the greedy apostate shepherds and will be set free to follow the Man-child and Bride bodies into the wilderness. Rev. 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days.) We began flying out of the cave on our perspective missions wearing the same dark grey body suits with the Arc Reactors like what Lion Man was wearing.  But we were met with heavy resistance by a new invading alien force that looked like the Predator Aliens from the movie, Aliens VS Predators. They also had a circular power source in their chests that emitted a greenish/yellow glow. It had what looked like green slimy veins all around the edges of it. (Bill Steinland had a dream that a Predator demon from this same movie was trying to kill David the night before he fell from a ladder and almost died in real life. I also had a dream that a Predator demon was working with the faction to destroy UBM and our materials.)  They would fight against us in mid-air by flinging greenish sticky discs at us that looked like the power sources in their chests. They were trying to keep us from saving the children and bringing them the food and materials that they needed to survive. (The factious and witchcraft demons have been doing this for years through attacks on our reputation, our contact people and workers, our materials and computers etc.) At one point I was training a young girl with long light brown hair, on the narrow ledge of the precipice, how to make it safely to the cave and one of the Predator enemies was suspended in mid-air behind us about 30 yards back. He was flinging the greenish sticky discs at us and most of them were sticking to the rock wall all around us as I drew her close to my side for protection. (This represents our little sister described in Song of Solomon. They are God's elect that are the second fruits of the end-time great revival and tribulation harvest.) I was grabbing the enemies disks off of the wall and flinging them back at him just as quickly. At one point, one of them landed on my right upper arm but without any effect. I pulled it off and flung it back at him hitting him in the chest with his own weapon. (Their devices will return upon their own heads.) He was mainly trying to interfere with our mission and get us to lose our balance on the ledge since that was the only power he really had. None of our enemies were able to harm us, they were only trying, desperately, to stop us or delay our missions to save the children. Then I woke up.   The Factious Lion Cannot Harm Those in the Cleft of the Rock Claire Pienaar - 9/22/21 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I watched a lion that looked like the lion character named ‘Scar' from the animated Disney movie, "Lion King.” (Scar is the weaker lion who is the brother of Mufasa (Meaning: King) the Lion King. He conspires with the Hyenas (Judas and the leaders) and succeeds in killing Mufasa (Jesus) and driving Simba, Mufasa's  son (Man-child in whom Jesus lives), who is the young lion cub heir to the kingdom out of the land. (Like Joseph in prison by the harlot until:) (Simba means: Courageous Warrior) Scar eventually fails to inherit the kingdom once Simba is fully grown and realizes his own strength and power to defeat his 'Judas' Uncle ‘Scar'. He then returns to Pride Rock and defeats Scar and his band of Hyenas (The Judas Faction) in an ultimate, final battle between good and evil and this restores justice and beauty back to the land in the movie. (Interestingly, According to Wikipedia, James Earl Jones was the voice-over for Mufasa, the Lion King, in this movie as Eve had described the voice of Lion-man in her dream above.)  In my dream the lion chased 5 young children into a cave. (The number 5 represents grace which Father gives to all those with child-like faith.) (I think there was one Middle-Eastern looking little boy, about 7 years in age, (Seven is the number of completion and of the churches. The boy represents the Man-child, Jesus, in His corporate body of ministers who will teach the Bride in the wilderness in the safety of the cleft in the Rock.) and the rest were little blonde girls that were younger versions of my own daughters who have blonde hair in real life. (The blonde haired girls represent the corporate body of the first fruits Bride who are submitted to Christ.)  This reminds me of Psalm 27:5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock.) (Here, again, we see a cartoon dragon character, in the from of a lion, seeking to devour and destroy the Man-child lion who is the rightful heir to the throne and the Kingdom of God. Rev.12:4-6 …the dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered, that when she is delivered he may devour her child. 5 And she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days.) As they made it into the mouth of the cave, these big strong metal bars... came over the mouth of the cave. The children squeezed through bars so they were now contained inside the cave. The lion could not get through, and he was growling and roaring and very desperate to get to these children. (1 Pe. 5:8 Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour,) The children went deeper into the cave. (God's elect press into abiding in Christ, the Rock, during times of tribulation.) There was a stream or river of water that ran through the cave, and they were playing and swimming in the water. (Jesus is the Word made flesh and He is the Living Water that we drink from in order to have eternal life. He is the Rock of our salvation. John 4:13-14 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again: 14 but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto eternal life.) I saw the lion gain entrance to the cave from another way. (The factious leaders in the Church were not anointed to shepherd God's people. They are liars, thieves and murderers. And they are doing their father, satan's, bidding; robbing God's people and killing them spiritually and physically through their witchcraft prayers. John 10:1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.) The lion was trying to get into the water to swim with the current to where the children were but there didn't seem to be a way for him to do it and he was getting angry. (The woman will be protected in the cleft of the Rock in the wilderness.) I received this verse by faith at random when I asked the Lord about this dream.  Psalm 55:3: Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked; For they cast iniquity upon me, And in anger they persecute me.   The Lion of Judah Will Fight for Us Merlene Laughlin - 7/26/21 (David's notes in red)  I was taking a nap on the couch and had nicely gotten to sleep when I had a vision. I saw myself suddenly go from a sideways lying position to a sitting position facing frontwards. (A frontward facing position represents facing the enemy and taking them head-on.) It wasn't as though an attack had come on me, but, I was ferociously praying in the Spirit, and shouting and commanding; staying seated with my feet planted on the floor. I could not get up!  Looking ahead, I could see the periphery on each side of me. I could see all around me for protection. There was a shield, two inches thick, in place about me that nothing could penetrate. It was made of a substance that I didn't know. (We have a Psalm 91 protection that is promised to us when we abide in Christ.) My hands and arms were in a fighting mode. (Psalm 18:24 He teacheth my hands to war; So that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.) I knew that there were other people in our UBM body that I was helping. I saw them only as shadowy figures that were standing together behind a wall, 2 inches thick by 6 feet high. The wall was made of the same material that my shield was made from and was about twelve feet away from me. (We are called to do spiritual warfare for our brethren in the kingdom.) I was still shouting in the Spirit as I noticed my hands. Sometimes they would make fists, then open and make a chop, chop motion. All of a sudden, as I watched my hands, they turned into the paws of a lion, tan in color, up to my forearms. (Isa. 40:10 Behold, the Lord Jehovah will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him: Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.) I was wondering how long this would continue on, but I could not stop fighting in the Spirit until the attack was over. From somewhere else came my strength. Then suddenly, the attack went away. It was defeated! (And the Lion of Judah, who is Christ in us our hope of glory, won the battle for us!

CHINE / ÉTATS-UNIS : VERS LA GUERRE DE TAÏWAN ? – 19/10/21 Invités ANTOINE BONDAZ Chercheur spécialiste de la Chine Fondation pour la recherche stratégique PIERRE HASKI Chroniqueur international - « France Inter » et « L'Obs » ARMELLE CHARRIER Éditorialiste en politique internationale - « France 24 » ALICE EKMAN Sinologue Auteure de « Rouge vif, l'idéal communiste » Après être sortie vite et fort de la crise liée au Covid-19, la deuxième puissance économique mondiale connaît un sérieux coup de frein. Le PIB de la Chine a progressé de 4,9 % au troisième trimestre sur un an, selon les données publiées lundi à Pékin. Une performance que beaucoup de pays rêveraient d'égaler mais qui pour l'Empire du Milieu est la plus faible depuis le rebond post-Covid19. Surtout par rapport au trimestre précédent, la croissance chinoise est quasi nulle, progressant de 0,2 %, soit le deuxième trimestre le plus faible jamais enregistré depuis 2010 au moins, relève Capital Economics. Alors pourquoi l'économie chinoise s'est-elle enrayée ? Avec la reprise économique mondiale, le géant asiatique fait face à des problèmes d'approvisionnement : outre les pénuries de composants et la flambée des coûts des matières premières qui impactent l'ensemble des économies du globe, « l'atelier du monde » est confronté à des coupures d'électricité massives, liées principalement à une pénurie de charbon. Un phénomène qui s'est étendu ces dernières semaines dans le pays, contraignant des usines à arrêter ou à réduire leur production dans une vingtaine de provinces. A cela viennent s'ajouter les difficultés connues par l'immobilier et la construction, deux secteurs qui tiennent une place considérable dans l'économie chinoise. (BNS). En cause : un resserrement des conditions de crédit et les déboires du géant Evergrande. En septembre, le promoteur a reconnu qu'il ne pourrait peut-être pas honorer tous ses engagements. Il traîne une ardoise estimée à près de 260 milliards d'euros, qui menace par effet de domino le reste de l'économie. Malgré une tempête sur les marchés financiers en septembre, Pékin n'a toujours pas dit s'il se porterait ou non au secours de l'entreprise au bord de la faillite. Confrontée à une série de chocs, la croissance chinoise connait un net ralentissement qui inquiète le reste du monde, jusqu'en Europe - pour des raisons économiques, mais aussi de tensions géopolitiques. Car la situation est extrêmement préoccupante en mer de Chine. Depuis maintenant plusieurs semaines, les relations diplomatiques entre la Chine et Taïwan sont au plus mal, en particulier à cause du survol de plus de 150 avions de l'Armée populaire de libération au-dessus de la zone aérienne de défense de l'île, événement vécu comme une provocation à la suite des propos du président chinois. Xi Jinping avait début octobre, à l'occasion des commémorations du 110e anniversaire de la révolution de 1911, promis une « réunification » pacifique avec Taïwan et avait mis en garde les États-Unis et les pays européens sur les risques d'apporter leur appui à la jeune démocratie taïwanaise. « La question de Taïwan est une affaire purement interne à la Chine », avait-il martelé. Depuis la tension est loin d'être redescendue : l'armée chinoise a condamné ce dimanche 17 octobre les Etats-Unis et le Canada qui ont envoyé en fin de semaine des navires de guerre dans le détroit de Taïwan, estimant que ces initiatives représentaient une menace pour la paix et la stabilité dans la région. De leur côté, les États-Unis se sont dit « très inquiets », après un article du Financial Times affirmant que la Chine a lancé un missile hypersonique en août dernier. Une affirmation démentie par l'Empire du Milieu. Alors jusqu'où peut aller l'escalade entre Pékin et Washington ? La question taïwanaise peut-elle déclencher la Troisième Guerre mondiale ? Pourquoi le net ralentissement de la croissance chinoise inquiète-t-il l'Europe ? Depuis plusieurs mois le régime chinois opère un retour en force dans la sphère économique et consolide son emprise sur la société. Que signifie cette reprise en main du régime ?

Proper 23 First Psalm: Psalms 16–17 Psalms 16–17 (Listen) You Will Not Abandon My Soul A Miktam1 of David. 16   Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.2   I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord;    I have no good apart from you.” 3   As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,    in whom is all my delight.2 4   The sorrows of those who run after3 another god shall multiply;    their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out    or take their names on my lips. 5   The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup;    you hold my lot.6   The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;    indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. 7   I bless the LORD who gives me counsel;    in the night also my heart instructs me.48   I have set the LORD always before me;    because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. 9   Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being5 rejoices;    my flesh also dwells secure.10   For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,    or let your holy one see corruption.6 11   You make known to me the path of life;    in your presence there is fullness of joy;    at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. In the Shadow of Your Wings A Prayer of David. 17   Hear a just cause, O LORD; attend to my cry!    Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit!2   From your presence let my vindication come!    Let your eyes behold the right! 3   You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night,    you have tested me, and you will find nothing;    I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.4   With regard to the works of man, by the word of your lips    I have avoided the ways of the violent.5   My steps have held fast to your paths;    my feet have not slipped. 6   I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;    incline your ear to me; hear my words.7   Wondrously show7 your steadfast love,    O Savior of those who seek refuge    from their adversaries at your right hand. 8   Keep me as the apple of your eye;    hide me in the shadow of your wings,9   from the wicked who do me violence,    my deadly enemies who surround me. 10   They close their hearts to pity;    with their mouths they speak arrogantly.11   They have now surrounded our steps;    they set their eyes to cast us to the ground.12   He is like a lion eager to tear,    as a young lion lurking in ambush. 13   Arise, O LORD! Confront him, subdue him!    Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,14   from men by your hand, O LORD,    from men of the world whose portion is in this life.8  You fill their womb with treasure;9    they are satisfied with children,    and they leave their abundance to their infants. 15   As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness;    when I awake, I shall be satisfied with your likeness.

To the choirmaster: according to The Doe of the Dawn. A Psalm of David. 22   My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?    Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning?2   O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer,    and by night, but I find no rest. 3   Yet you are holy,    enthroned on the praises1 of Israel.4   In you our fathers trusted;    they trusted, and you delivered them.5   To you they cried and were rescued;    in you they trusted and were not put to shame. 6   But I am a worm and not a man,    scorned by mankind and despised by the people.7   All who see me mock me;    they make mouths at me; they wag their heads;8   “He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him;    let him rescue him, for he delights in him!” 9   Yet you are he who took me from the womb;    you made me trust you at my mother's breasts.10   On you was I cast from my birth,    and from my mother's womb you have been my God.11   Be not far from me,    for trouble is near,    and there is none to help. 12   Many bulls encompass me;    strong bulls of Bashan surround me;13   they open wide their mouths at me,    like a ravening and roaring lion. 14   I am poured out like water,    and all my bones are out of joint;  my heart is like wax;    it is melted within my breast;15   my strength is dried up like a potsherd,    and my tongue sticks to my jaws;    you lay me in the dust of death. 16   For dogs encompass me;    a company of evildoers encircles me;  they have pierced my hands and feet2—17   I can count all my bones—  they stare and gloat over me;18   they divide my garments among them,    and for my clothing they cast lots. 19   But you, O LORD, do not be far off!    O you my help, come quickly to my aid!20   Deliver my soul from the sword,    my precious life from the power of the dog!21     Save me from the mouth of the lion!  You have rescued3 me from the horns of the wild oxen! 22   I will tell of your name to my brothers;    in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:23   You who fear the LORD, praise him!    All you offspring of Jacob, glorify him,    and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!24   For he has not despised or abhorred    the affliction of the afflicted,  and he has not hidden his face from him,    but has heard, when he cried to him. 25   From you comes my praise in the great congregation;    my vows I will perform before those who fear him.26   The afflicted4 shall eat and be satisfied;    those who seek him shall praise the LORD!    May your hearts live forever! 27   All the ends of the earth shall remember    and turn to the LORD,  and all the families of the nations    shall worship before you.28   For kingship belongs to the LORD,    and he rules over the nations. 29   All the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;    before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,    even the one who could not keep himself alive.30   Posterity shall serve him;    it shall be told of the Lord to the coming generation;31   they shall come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn,    that he has done it.

The king said to Jeremiah, “I will ask you a question; hide nothing from me.” 15 Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “If I tell you, will you not surely put me to death? And if I give you counsel, you will not listen to me.” 16 Then King Zedekiah swore secretly to Jeremiah, “As the LORD lives, who made our souls, I will not put you to death or deliver you into the hand of these men who seek your life.” 17 Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “Thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: If you will surrender to the officials of the king of Babylon, then your life shall be spared, and this city shall not be burned with fire, and you and your house shall live. 18 But if you do not surrender to the officials of the king of Babylon, then this city shall be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and you shall not escape from their hand.” 19 King Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, “I am afraid of the Judeans who have deserted to the Chaldeans, lest I be handed over to them and they deal cruelly with me.” 20 Jeremiah said, “You shall not be given to them. Obey now the voice of the LORD in what I say to you, and it shall be well with you, and your life shall be spared. 21 But if you refuse to surrender, this is the vision which the LORD has shown to me: 22 Behold, all the women left in the house of the king of Judah were being led out to the officials of the king of Babylon and were saying,   “‘Your trusted friends have deceived you    and prevailed against you;  now that your feet are sunk in the mud,    they turn away from you.' 23 All your wives and your sons shall be led out to the Chaldeans, and you yourself shall not escape from their hand, but shall be seized by the king of Babylon, and this city shall be burned with fire.” 24 Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, “Let no one know of these words, and you shall not die. 25 If the officials hear that I have spoken with you and come to you and say to you, ‘Tell us what you said to the king and what the king said to you; hide nothing from us and we will not put you to death,' 26 then you shall say to them, ‘I made a humble plea to the king that he would not send me back to the house of Jonathan to die there.'” 27 Then all the officials came to Jeremiah and asked him, and he answered them as the king had instructed him. So they stopped speaking with him, for the conversation had not been overheard. 28 And Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken. (ESV) New Testament: 1 Corinthians 15:1–11 1 Corinthians 15:1–11 (Listen) The Resurrection of Christ 15 Now I would remind you, brothers,1 of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 6 Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. 7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. 8 Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. 11 Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed. Footnotes [1] 15:1 Or brothers and sisters; also verses 6, 31, 50, 58 (ESV) Gospel: Matthew 11:1–6 Matthew 11:1–6 (Listen) Messengers from John the Baptist 11 When Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in their cities. 2 Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples 3 and said to him, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?” 4 And Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John what you hear and see: 5 the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers1 are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. 6 And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.” Footnotes [1] 11:5 Leprosy was a term for several skin diseases; see Leviticus 13 (ESV)

In his recent article, "America's Fate: Oligarchy or Autocracy," Chris Hedges writes that bankrupt liberals have sold out to the oligarchic class to try to prevent an autocracy from rising but that is actually creating the conditions for autocracy. Hedges speaks with Clearing the FOG about the lessons from the Occupy movement - he was involved in the Occupy Wall Street movement in New York City and the occupation of Freedom Plaza in Washington, DC in 2011 - and why we must build a militant movement now to confront and hold power accountable. He explains how power works, including the role of politicians such as Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden in protecting the interests of the wealthy classes.

The world today seem to prefer politics to morality, a personal brand to inner character, resume virtues that achieve success over eulogy virtues that reveal who you truly are... and it like this from the news to Instagram, at PTA meetings and little league fields, from the grocery store line to the protest front lines. David Brooks thinks we need to find our way back on the road to character.Today, New York Times columnist David Brooks joins Miroslav Volf for a conversation about his 2015 book The Road to Character. Together, they reflect on the central virtues in a life of flourishing that leads to joy, the importance of reintroducing the concept of sin back into public conversation, and the challenge of finding the resolve to pursue the commitments to vocation, faith, community, and family in a culture that tempts us toward individualism and idolatry of the self.This is part 2 of a 2-part conversation on Flourishing, Character, and the Good Life.
