Revelation 6:5,6 NCV When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse, and its rider held a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard something that sounded like a voice coming from the middle of the four living creatures. The voice said, "A quart of wheat for a day's pay, and three quarts of barley for a day's pay, and do not damage the olive oil and wine!"
Major rallies are being scheduled in Greece today ahead of a referendum Sunday on a proposal for the country’s debt that is not even on the table.
The country has already defaulted on a loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and European Union (EU) officials are warning that a no vote from the Greek citizens on Sunday could mean the country’s exit from the Euro. Economists say such a result would cause ripple effects throughout the world economy.
Greek voters, however, are very confused by the referendum.
“No one is really telling us what it means,” said Erika Papamichalopoulou, 27, a resident of Athens, told the New York Times. “No one is saying what will happen to us if we say yes, or what will happen to us if we say no.”
Banks in the nation remain closed ahead of the Sunday vote.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras appeared to take steps Wednesday to accept many of the demands of the nation’s creditors but has also been telling citizens to vote down the referendum on the deal.
European leaders are pointing out that Sunday’s vote is revolving around a deal that is no longer on the table because the framework was built around a bailout package that was revoked on Tuesday.
The IMF surprised many on Thursday when it called for more aid and debt relief for Greece. The IMF says the Greek situation has significantly deteriorated because of conflict with creditors and calls for European leaders to be more generous financially toward Greece.
Hey All!
And Happy Birthday to my country, the US of America.
Yep, been watching this since 09 or 010.
What the bankers did some time back in Cypress was very interesting –locking down all accounts & later going into these accounts & removing individual’s (& businesses’) money. Kind of like the old school Russian hackers, yet it was called “legal”. And yes, I do believe that what happened in Cypress was a “test” to find out what could be gotten away with without the people revolting –how far could the envelope be pushed.
And now in 2015, I believe that the envelope is about to be pushed further.
The 5 hour old story @ { http://news.yahoo.com/crying-greek-pensioner-story-behind-poignant-photo-003339650.html} is very telling. Perhaps the Bakker Ranch Gang, the NOW gang could use some of the photos @ this said web address. To think of this on a mass scale causes my mind to go tilt.
A few thoughts with all of this:
• The “crying greek pensioner” article tells of suicide gone up due to bank lock downs &/or confiscation of monies. How much more so if / when such takes place within America? The world?
• Curious if those who had the electronic automatic bill pay, if their bills get paid –I wonder? I have not seen anything telling me either way.
• And what if this is “planned” from the very beginning. And to “not let a crisis go to waste” by someone coming up with the answer. Perhaps something like “cashless” & thereby all financial transactions are to be electronic? Could fit end time, yes?
Because of Jesus,
