Lindsey Williams (friends with some of what he calls the "elite" and they "tell him things") Feb. 3, 2012 Timeout Radio Interview Highlights... Last fall I told you there wasn't going to be a crash in the next 3-4 months. I had been told the elite wanted to create massive debt in every individual, family, city, county, state and nation before they let things collapse. The elite have planned it, we are positively going to see a financial collapse. The collapse was planned 15-20 years ago along with the outsourcing of our industry, etc. The dollar is no longer the reserve currency of the world. There is going to be a bank holiday. They did not say when it will happen, although it could be in February or March, but you will have no warning in advance when they devalue the currency by 40 percent. Read Bernanke's speech from Congress where he talks about doing this. You have a window of opportunity right now to prepare your house...

"In their 1997 book The Fourth Turning, the authors expand the theory to focus on a fourfold cycle of generational types and recurring mood eras in American history.[2] The theory was developed to describe the history of the United States, including the 13 colonies and their Anglo antecedents, and this is where the most detailed research has been done. However, the authors have also examined generational trends elsewhere in the world and identified similar cycles in several developed countries..."

President Gordon B. Hinckley's Pharoah's Dream talks... 1999 - 2005 Seven Years of Plenty? 2006 - 2012 Seven Years of Lean? The first time President Hinckley mentioned Pharaoh’s dream was in 1998 when he said, “I wish to speak to you about temporal matters. As a backdrop for what I wish to say, I read to you a few verses from the 41st chapter of Genesis. Pharaoh, the ruler of Egypt, dreamed dreams which greatly troubled him...And I saw in my dream…seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good: And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.” Then Joseph’s interpretation, “Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine…And God will shortly bring it to pass (Gen. 41:20, 26, 30, 32). Now, brethren, I want to make it very clear that I am not prophesying, that I am not predicting years of famine in the future. But I am suggesting that the time has come to get our houses in order…There is a portent of stormy weather ahead to which we had better give heed...That’s all I have to say about it, but I wish to say it with all the emphasis of which I am capable.” A portent means something of prophetic or ominous significance. President Hinckley also spoke of the fragile economy, how people are living off of their borrowings instead of earnings and how paying interest is financial bondage. He said that he hoped that there wouldn’t be a depression…twice, but then said he was concerned about all the debt our members are carrying. He talked about how Elder Faust paid off his mortgage quickly, and how content that has made him.6 President Hinckley again referenced Pharaoh’s dream just weeks after the 9/11 terrorist attack in his talk, “The Times In Which We Live.” Pres. Hinckley said, “The economy is particularly vulnerable. We have been counseled again and again concerning self-reliance, concerning debt, concerning thrift. So many of our people are heavily in debt for things that are not entirely necessary.” Then he talked about getting a modest home and paying it off as quickly as possible. He said, “We cannot provide against every contingency. But we can provide against many contingencies. Let the present situation remind us that this we should do. As we have been continuously counseled for more than 60 years, let us have some food set aside that would sustain us for a time in case of need…” He referenced Pharaoh’s dream when he said, “I do not know what the future holds. I do not wish to sound negative, but I wish to remind you of the warnings of scripture and the teachings of the prophets which we have had constantly before us. I cannot forget the great lesson of Pharaoh’s dream of the fat and lean kine and of the full and withered stalks of corn. I cannot dismiss from my mind the grim warnings of the Lord as set forth in the 24th chapter of Matthew. I am familiar, as are you, with the declarations of modern revelation that the time will come when the earth will be cleansed and there will be indescribable distress, with weeping and mourning and lamentation (see D&C 112:24). Now, I do not wish to be an alarmist. I do not wish to be a prophet of doom.”7 Said President Hinckley in October Conference in 2005, “What [calamities] we have experienced in the past was all foretold, and the end is not yet. Just as there have been calamities in the past, we expect more in the future. What do we do? Someone has said it was not raining when Noah built the ark. But he built it, and the rains came…We can heed warnings…the best storehouse is the family storeroom. In words of revelation the Lord has said, ‘Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing’ (D&C 109:8 ). Our people for three-quarters of a century have been counseled and encouraged to make such preparation as will assure survival should a calamity come. We can set aside some water, basic food, medicine, and clothing to keep us warm. We ought to have a little money laid aside in case of a rainy day…” This talk was given exactly seven years from the date that President Hinckley first gave (as I call it) his “seven years of plenty talk.” In it he again mentioned the dream of Pharaoh when he said, “Let us never lose sight of the dream of Pharaoh concerning the fat cattle and the lean, the full ears of corn and the blasted ears, the meaning of which was interpreted by Joseph to indicate years of plenty and years of scarcity.”8 http://www.lds.net/forums/lds-gospel-discussion/42236-not-afraid-fall-2011-a.html

Rick Wiles read a quote from a banker about a couple dates to watch for in the future. This banker also told them about the Lehman Brothers collapse before it happened in 2008. Here are his main points...financial turning points on Feb 21 and March 20. Could be bank holidays or martial law beginning with the Greek default. http://www.trunews.com/Audio/2_09_12_thursday_trunews2.mp3

Fitch ratings Managing Director Edward Parker says that Greece is likely to default on a 14.5 billion Euro bond payment due on March 20...So it won’t be a surprise when the Greek default actually happens and we expect it one way or the other to be relatively soon.

Inflation on essential goods and deflation on non-essentials seems to be prevalent right now. Baltic Dry Index (stuff being moved by shipping) is collapsing again...similar to like how it did in 2008-9 and this does not bode well for the economy in a couple of months. Deflation is big in the news today also.

Okay I collect predictions by people regarding dates...it is a hobby of mine but all of the dooms "dates" for March are unusual...so put on your tin hats because of a few of these predictions may belong in that category...others...not so much.

Every new year for years I have been updating and adding to my original collection of prophets quotes called "Be Not Afraid" as a gift to my friends and family and as a way to keep track of all the last-days quotes I like to collect. Originally, I wrote it as a talk that I wish that someone could have given to my area as my ward and stake do not have a preparedness specialist and many are confused about what we are actually supposed to be doing as instructed by the apostles and prophets. As this is again a collection of quotes gathered to clear up some of that confusion I do not feel "ownership" of it and would be delighted if it encouraged someone to become self-reliant so that should calamity come they would be in a position to survive and help others survive rather than being numbered among the poor and needy. As you know only a very few families in each ward are prepared to survive something like a pandemic or far-reaching earthquake. After the big Chilean earthquake there were very few that had any water or food to share with a missionary that had just arrived in the field 3 weeks before...I will always be grateful to that one family in that ward prepared to have sufficient to share with him and others. Since some have asked already you have my permission if you feel so inspired to e-mail this (parts or whole) to family, friends and those with stewardship for others, use it on faithful LDS blogs or your personal LDS social network, use it for LDS talks or lessons, or use it as a handout at LDS preparedness fairs. To save us all from reading something 20+ pages long this year, I decided to just include the most recent quotes from the apostles and prophets. My previous "collection" is also here with a similar title. While I did my best, if you noticed any inaccuracies from my copying or paraphrasing the prophets words or something that needs to be edited please let me know. I hope you like it.

Some years ago I received a thrilling call from my doctor saying that in some months I could expect a long awaited and longed for first-born child. Eventually the thrill I felt in this wonderful news turned to trepidation as I realized that there was no way around some unpleasant days ahead. As it turned out there were some trials, yet as I held my baby for the first time I knew that all that I had recently suffered was totally and completely worth him. I look at what lies ahead for us in much the same way. I wish that there were a way around some difficult days but realize that the only way to the glorious promises of the future is through. Yet some day we will be able to look back with joy and know that any trials faced were totally and completely worth Him...His return to Earth! I love the vision of the future…can you imagine when there will be no sick or afflicted, poor or needy, unemployed or homeless, or fear of those who would harm or take advantage? Jesus admonished us to “be not troubled.” I believe the best way to do that is to keep the vision of the new Jerusalem, the redemption of the old, the return of Enoch’s Zion and Christ’s millennial reign continually before our minds…now that vision is truly thrilling!1 Yet many of my friends tell me that this last-days stuff is too scary to contemplate…I think Elder Bednar understood such feelings when he said, "Now brothers and sisters, these teachings from modern and ancient prophets about latter-day tests and trials are sobering and solemn. But they should not be discouraging, and we should not be afraid. For those with eyes to see and ears to hear, spiritual warnings lead to increasingly vigilant watching. You and I live in ‘a day of warning.’ And because we have been and will be warned, we need to be, as the Apostle Paul admonished, ‘watching …with all perseverance.’ As we watch and prepare, truly we have no need to fear.”2 President Packer gave wonderful hope and promises to the youth this past conference. He said we shouldn’t think that, “The way things are going, the world’s going to be over with. The end of the world is going to come before I get to where I should be.” He then promised, “You can look forward to doing it right—getting married, having a family, seeing your children and grandchildren, maybe even great-grandchildren. If you will follow these principles, you will be watched over and protected and you yourself will know by the promptings of the Holy Ghost which way to go..." Oops…did you get the IF there, I didn’t the first time I heard it. President Packer had shared how his peaceful youth was interrupted by a world war. After joining the military he wondered if he would survive it to see his family again. He was promised in a blessing that if he obeyed the commandments and followed the guidance of the spirit he would be warned of danger so that he “might again be united with your loved ones.” He wanted that blessing very much so he diligently sought to learn how to “listen” to the Holy Ghost so he could feel the “warnings” he was promised. President Packer promised us that we too can hear and listen to the promptings of the Spirit and as we live righteous principles we can also be “watched over and protected.”3 A few years ago President Packer speaking again to younger members said, “We move from a generation of ease and entertainment to a generation of hard work and responsibility. We do not know how long that will last...the future will hold trials and difficulties for you...However, fear is the opposite of faith. Do not be afraid! I do not fear.”4 Elder Nelson’s message in the Ensign last month was equally courageous, he said that “difficult days lie ahead” as we expect the prophecies of Paul concerning the persecution of members of the Church to be fulfilled. He gives us assurances, “Yoked with Him, each of us can rise above all of our challenges, no matter how difficult they may be.” He also promised if we “keep ourselves unspotted from the world, worthy to attend His holy temple” we can have “the peace of knowing that we are prepared to meet Him.”5 In the August Ensign, President Packer’s son Elder Allan F. Packer wrote, "To gain courage for what lies ahead, we need to be connected to the gospel of Jesus Christ....This is not a time to be naive, unprepared, or unaware...We need to have the Spirit and look to the prophets and our priesthood leaders for guidance."6 I decided to “look to the prophets” and went to the last conference messages from the First Presidency. All I can say is WOW! For the Saints who snoozed through their messages it is a great time to wake up! Snoozing reminds me of what I heard Elder Bednar say a year or two ago, “The Lord has on the earth some potential spiritual giants whom He saved for some six thousand years to help bear off the Kingdom triumphantly, and the devil is trying to put them to sleep…what good is a sleepy, neutralized, lukewarm giant...?”7 So what did the First Presidency say while we were sleeping?...specific counsel and direction for what lies ahead. President Uchtdorf was the first to speak saying, "Like two sides of a coin, the temporal and spiritual are inseparable...The Giver of all life has proclaimed, ‘All things unto me are spiritual, and not at any time have I given unto you a law which was temporal.’...Unfortunately, there are those who overlook the temporal because they consider it less important. They treasure the spiritual while minimizing the temporal...The one complements the other. The one without the other is a counterfeit of God’s plan of happiness...This work of providing in the Lord’s way is not simply another item in the catalog of programs of the Church. It cannot be neglected or set aside. It is central to our doctrine; it is the essence of our religion. We must not turn aside our hearts or our heads from becoming more self-reliant...The temporal is intertwined with the spiritual. God has given us this mortal experience and the temporal challenges that attend it as a laboratory where we can grow into the beings Heavenly Father wants us to become." President Uchtdorf went on to say that we must not assume that we know what the Lord wants us to know and do…he instructed us to learn what is meant by “providing in the Lord’s way” by searching out its meaning in Provident Living, in the June Ensign and Church handbooks. He said, "It will take all of us working together to successfully apply the principles of welfare and self-reliance.”8 After reading President Uchtdorf’s counsel I went to Providentliving.org and was shocked to find that it is now a whole NEW SITE featuring President Uchtdorf’s message and what the Lord wants us to know about providing in His way.9 Next President Eyring warned, "We are being prepared for…service that will become more challenging with time" and we must "form a habit of pushing on through the fatigue and fear that might make you think of quitting...staying power comes from working past the point when others would have taken a rest."10 Perhaps there was significance for us in President Monson’s titles for his conference addresses, “Stand in Holy Places”11 and “Dare to Stand Alone?”12 In his talks he assured us “you will be entitled to His inspiration and guidance in your life—necessities for each of us if we are to survive spiritually during our sojourn here on earth…it is essential that we are able to face-with courage-whatever challenges come our way…Lest we at any time feel inadequate for the tasks ahead for us….we represent some of His strongest children,” and we must live worthily to have blessings through the ministering of angels. President Eyring has said a few years ago,13 as well in his conference address7 that when the brethren quote other prophets or repeat themselves we should give particular heed to their messages. So I paid special attention when President Monson quoted another prophet, "Said President Benson: ‘In all ages, prophets have looked down through the corridors of time to our day. Billions of the deceased and those yet to be born have their eyes on us. Make no mistake about it—you are a marked generation…For nearly six thousand years, God has held you in reserve to make your appearance in the final days before the second coming of the Lord. Some individuals will fall away, but the kingdom of God will remain intact to welcome the return of its Head—even Jesus Christ…While this generation will be comparable in wickedness to the days of Noah, when the Lord cleansed the earth by flood, there is a major difference this time: [it is that] God has saved for the final inning some of His strongest…children, who will help bear off the kingdom triumphantly.’”11 President Benson finished off that paragraph with this prophetic statement, “And that is where you come in, for you are the generation that must be prepared to meet your God."14 In rereading this talk I found it interesting where President Benson talked of “our generation” and then talked to the young adults specifically saying “your generation.” So how are we to prepare? President Monson said in October Conference of 2009, “I am reminded of the words of the Lord found in the book of Ether in the Book of Mormon. Said the Lord, ‘Ye cannot cross this great deep save I prepare you against the waves of the sea, and the winds which have gone forth, and the floods which shall come.’ My brothers and sisters, He has prepared us. If we heed His words and live the commandments, we will survive…”15 While President Monson was talking of spiritual survival, the example he used was of how the Lord prepared a way for the physical survival of his people. Regardless, we are assured that if we heed His words and live the commandments we will be blessed. What are His words we should “heed?" Several years ago the First Presidency sent a “Message” to the Church which they wanted all members to read…at least I believe this was their intent as they gave it to the Bishop’s for distribution to all ward members and then sent it to all of us again in the Ensign a few months later. It said, “Our Heavenly Father created this beautiful earth, with all its abundance, for our benefit and use. His purpose is to provide for our needs as we walk in faith and obedience. He has lovingly commanded us to ‘prepare every needful thing’ so that, should adversity come, we may care for ourselves and our neighbors and support bishops as they care for others. We encourage members worldwide to prepare for adversity in life by having a basic supply of food and water and some money in savings.” (This publication is also where they introduced the new guidelines of a 3-month supply of foods we eat, water storage, a financial reserve and longer-term home storage.)16 The First Presidency recently sent the Church a letter in their special section of the June Ensign. Their letter said we should, "become more self-reliant…and help people help themselves. As you review this special section, we encourage you and your family to prayerfully consider and act upon self-reliance and other welfare principles.”17 Later in this section they repeated this counsel, “To provide in the Lord’s way, we must develop our own self-reliance and then seek to help others become self-reliant.”18 Also they define what that means, ”Self-reliance involves several facets of a balanced life, including (1) education, (2) health, (3) employment, (4) family home production and storage, (5) family finances, and (6) spiritual strength.”19 This was the final message from President Monson, “Living welfare principles is about putting our faith in Jesus Christ into action—by eliminating unnecessary debt, living within our means, and establishing family home storage and financial reserves…Our faith leads us to educate our minds and our hands and to work every day of our lives to be self-reliant. Having taken care of our own needs, we are better able to provide for ourselves and serve others. May we follow the counsel not only to do good but strive to be good, not just to do better but to be better. Obedience to the Lord’s counsel brings temporal and spiritual blessings. It allows us to face the challenges of life armed with courage and confidence rather than fear and doubt.”20 May we be courageous and confident as we follow this counsel to have faith and be obedient to His counsel...is my prayer for all of us as we look towards the difficult days in the future as well as the "triumphant" times ahead. __________________ 1 Elder Marion G.

Most blessings in the gospel come in an If/Then format. This promise of President Packer's is no different, there were a LOT of IFs to that promise.

Supposedly that is what the elite say they are going to do...the guy who is supposedly a friend of one of them also said that they are both going down within weeks of each other. But my crystal ball isn't working so I have no idea or stake in which goes down first, but I do believe they will go down around the same time. FWIW which may not be much...

...:)

What I do know is that it won't be the Second Coming or the end of the world for the wicked as that is still many years away. Even after Armageddon there are years of cleanup that would be unnecessary if it were Christ's return in glory. We know he will visit at least three times to New Jerusalem, to rescue the more righteous Jews in Jerusalem, and then when he comes in Glory. Eventually the Saints will be gathered for refuge from God's wrath on the Earth. But before that happens I expect the end of the Euro, and then the dollar...and so the end of the world as we have known it. Most of us cannot even imagine a world where the government and the Church won't be able to provide for us in the event of unemployment or a greater calamity. But the Brethren have told us that we must be self-reliant and we ourselves should provide help to the poor and the needy through the calamities of the last days. The plan of most to be numbered among the poor and the needy could be a really bad plan...the parable of the prodigal son comes to mind (not the harlot part I don't want to offend anyone here...but perhaps the spending of his abundance/inheritance part.) In conference the First Presidency talked of some of the men having to work past their endurance, the members of the Church needing to be self-reliant and "Welfare in the Lord's Way" (which we were told to study on the new Provident Living site.) On the new site they tell us that "preparing every needful thing" is a commandment from Heavenly Father (which tells me the Saints are most likely going to NEED these things in the future, perhaps even our future...it isn't just a test of obedience.) Elder Nelson told us in this month's Ensign that there will be difficult days ahead for the Saints. So while I don't expect to be alive when Jesus Christ comes in glory, I do think that I might be alive when the Saints or many of the Saints are tested, are persecuted to varying degrees (see December Ensign), and where many will be gathered for refuge from the storm...at some point, some or all who have sufficient to make the trip will be asked to go to start building the New Jerusalem in preparation for His return. So as far as 2012 is concerned I don't think it will be the end of the world...but perhaps the end of the financial world as we have known it. Just today the news is about Iran possibly stopping the flow of mid-Eastern (cheap) oil to the US, European nations defaulting, Japan and China dumping the dollar (huge), gun sales at record levels, housing prices are down nationwide, new layoffs announced, many K-marts closing, massive seal deaths most likely due to radiation poisoning, the Japanese debris making it to US shores, new missile tests from Russia, a new aircraft carrier from China, etc. etc. etc. So whether we will still be reading similar posts a year from now or there will have been a life changing event between now and then, or even just a continued gradual decline...or good news instead...I cannot say. All we can do is be spiritually and temporally prepared in these last days and stay close to each other and the Lord. Best wishes my friends in 2012! Char .

Whatever that will or won't mean...

Our Gift to Him

Hope you have a great day!
