PRESCIENCE

The last prophet of God was the apostle John. Their aren't any more since.

So I'm not pretending. Some say they have a direct word; but don't listen. They're false prophets.

However, there are many things in God's written history that proclaim His character. And from those we gain information about what He does with all that is His. It's called prescience.

For example: He doesn't allow anyone to have dominion over all the world. There is only one King. Second example: He won't put up with insubordination for very long. His authority is indisputable. Third example: He judges wicked men and nations; and He proves His Church in order to manifest His Own glory.

I could go on.

But there are conclusions from all of this. One is that this country is under judgment. Second, He will preserve His Church through "proving" it in the midst of judgment. Third, we're very liable, right now, for some very hard times. And I'm not going to be surprised if we see a dollar crash in the very near future. Maybe the excitement and anticipation generated for the mid-term elections will put it off for a time. I certainly hope so.

In the meantime, those following this blog should think long and hard about putting cash into real estate now, while the money has some value left. It's been said that real estate isn't an investment. That's debatable in some circumstances. Not now.

REAL ESTATE ACTIVITY

Lots of activity in lower priced homes right now......along with short sales and foreclosures. Folks with some money are hunkered down until they see which way this thing is going.

What they don't see coming is hyperinflation; but they should see it, because that's what has to happen. And the expendable cash that they have available isn't going to be worth much. The time to buy is now, while paper money is still worth something. Then, when things get much worse, they'll have something of value.....Real Estate!
