I haven't posted anything in many years only because many of the things that I "saw" happening never materialized. So I berated myself for my over active imagination and chalked it all up me being tired of the daily grind and even 'hoping' that something would happen to 'spice' things up.
So now it is four years after my last message of 'get ready'; but oddly my spirit still feels something is coming and it won't be fun.
The current events are causing my soul to stir again. The earthquakes have increase 10 fold in the last four years. Now all the volcanoes are beginning to vent around the ring of fire. Things are definitely starting to get interesting.
The USGS used to say that would could have a large earthquake in California in the next thirty years, however they now say it is "imminent". And yet life goes on in the SF Bay Area.
As I have mentioned before I follow a few Christian Prophets, who incidentally, had been relatively
firm on the eventual destruction of California by massive quakes. One of these has stated that the State of California will be ripped along the San Andreas like a sheet of paper.
But now scientists have been on the news discussing the potential for massive quakes along the San Andreas fault and the Hayward Fault.
I also watch a YouTube Channel called Dutchsinse. He has been mapping the earthquakes around the globe for years, to the point to where is able to predict (with a high degree of accuracy) quakes around the world. But of course the USGS says he is off base in his research.
So I am back on my bandwagon calling for everyone to have emergency supplies in their homes in their vehicles and a specific plan in place in case the events occur at home or on the go.
I speak to the people I work with about preparations for a disaster and you would think they might say, "That's a good idea" or " Yes, I been thinking about that". But instead I get looked at like I am telling them the moon is made out of cheese!
The best answer is; " They been saying that for years". Okay I tell them what about the Loma Prieta or the Northridge quakes? And they ceremoniously dismiss me with some off the wall comments.
It is like trying to tell a blind man about the color red. I might as speak to them in Swahili.
Now that we have a new Administration in place and the gaping divide between political parties widens by the minute. I would like to propose a couple of ideas that may or may not be popular with those who happen upon this message.
First, their is the potential for an honest to goodness civil war! The conflict between good and evil is now a major cold war. Worse than anything I have ever witnessed.
It is no longer possible to live a peaceable existence while the crime increases and the government tries to institute programs to mitigate it.
Second, the world is Bankrupt and the debt is unpayable. This alone could destroy the world, look at Venezuela and that debacle caused by the World Bank.
Thirdly, the earth is convulsing with major storms which intensify year after year, the quakes are more frequent and growing in intensity, the volcanoes are spewing.
And yet, life goes on like nothing is happening?
So I will conclude this message with a heart felt warning! Please begin to prepare, talk with your family about what to do in the event of a disaster, and utilize the available videos on the net to get ideas on how to prepare, train and purchase items for your household.
The most important things that you need are water filters: Seychelle, Sawyer, life straw & Katadyn.
The next is Freeze dried foods that store for long periods of time and only need some water to reconstitute.
Lastly is familiarization with means and methods of emergency survival: Shelter, fire and protection.
(If this message can help one person, their family, neighbors or friends, then my time is not misspent.)

The time is short.
Earthquakes are coming to Los Angeles, Seattle and again, Tokyo.
I did not just pull this out of the ether this is the culmination of research and study by former USGS Geologists and other scientific researchers.
The most interesting part of all this is the Christian prophets are saying the same things!
So if you live in or near these areas you should seek the Lord Jesus whether you should leave or prepare to be a help to those who will be affected by these disasters.
For those of you who don't know anything about preparing for a disaster I would suggest you either get a book on 'prepping' or look for prepping websites or videos on youtube.
The least you should have is a 72 hour kit in your vehicle and at your living quarters. No matter what the weather is you need space blankets, plush throws, coats, hats, gloves, boots and thick socks. You may work a ways from your home and after a major disaster it could literally take days to get back home.
You need a water filter like Seychelle, Sawyer or Katadyn with your Kit. Water is always questionable after a disaster! You need hi calorie food bars like Kind, Cliff or PowerBar in your kit. Dehydrated or freeze dried meals (which needs water from your filter).
I could ramble on for days but, You need to do the research and the gathering of gear and supplies if you are serious about surviving.
For the extremely motivated, once you have your main kit, you could start training in Aboriginal skills. Learn to use what the earth provides to survive and even flourish! Thousands have been seeking the 'original' ways to live in balance with the earth around you and to find all you need that way.
So if you serious about surviving the coming shake up. Turn off the stupidity on the TV and tune in to video training on youtube and get ready!
Ps. once L.A. hits there will be shock waves up the San Andreas all the way to Seattle destabilizing it causing its destruction. One thing I didn't mention is that these quakes are expected in the 9 to 10 range!
I am not immune to this issue. I currently abide one mile from the San Andrea fault.
May God have mercy on us all.

The end of business as usual. Now comes the tough part.
Disclaimer: If you read this post you will have no excuse not to be prepared!
The recent bombing in Boston should be a wake up call to everyone! We as Americans have an enemy which desires, works tirelessly towards and celebrates the destruction of this nation.
It is now time to wake out of our slumber and stand vigilant against these attacks.
We can no longer wander through our day with our faces stuck in our smart phones, tablets, laptops and any other screens.
We should be discussing an emergency plan with everyone we live with, live near, work with, and work for.
It is time for an action plan. A premeditated, thought through and agreed upon agenda.
At work, what would you do in the event of terrorist attack? Do you have emergency supplies in your office? Does your office have an emergency action plan? Is there emergency supplies in your vehicle for your drive home or to the predetermined "Bug out" location? Do you have dust mask close at hand in case your building is damaged and you need to leave through a cloud of dust? Do you have 'escape shoes' you can slip into for a run to safety?
Do you have a 'bug out' bag in your vehicle?
At commute, have you studied alternate routes should an event occur that blocks your normal way?
Is you vehicle allowed to get under a half tank, knowing you have need to 'bug out'?
At home, have you discussed with family members what is to be done in specific events?
Do you have emergency water and food set aside for 'anything' that might occur.
At home, have you discussed a meeting point outside of your home while everyone is about their daily movements?
Do you have trusted neighbors who can help if you can't make it home?
What knowledge, experience or training do you have if there is an emergency?
What, if any, assistance are you willing to lend to victims of an emergency? Can you afford to stop or do you go straight home to your family?
What time can you make available to learn what is necessary in order to survive and see to the survival of your family?
Most of us spend a lot of time on entertainment in many different forms. Could this time be better spent?
How would you feel if tomorrow there was another event and it affected your town or neighborhood and you were helpless and didn't know what to do?
Well, enough questions! Let's talk about actions!
How to get started:
I. Mental prep:
1. Write down you current living situation:
a. type of home
b. number of occupants,
c. ages and physical abilities.
d. any known emergency supplies (first aid, food in pantry, freezer or fridge)
2. How will you be separated from them on a daily basis.
a. who is closest to home
b. who is furthest from home
c. who needs the most help
3. What finances can I channel toward emergency supplies
a. emergency water filtration
b. bottled water supplies
c. canned goods or freeze dried (long shelf life meals)
4. What house hold supplies can do double duty as emergency supplies
a. clothing
b. Bedding
c. furniture
5. Do you or any member of you household have any emergency training
a. first aid
b. CPR (w/AED)
c. advanced first aid
II. Emotional prep:
1. Discussing potential emergencies
a. action plans for multiple scenarios
b. age related 'what to do' discussions
c. 'Bug-In' vs. "Bug-Out" action plans
d. Who job is it to do what.
e. what to do if no one comes home.
f. what to do if I am injured and I am supposed to be the leader.
III. Physical prep:
1. What supplies can we carry with us.
a. clothing
b. water
c. space blanket/poncho
d. fire starting tools/supplies lighter, ferrocerrium rod, magnesium block with striker.
e. knife(s) and multi-tool(s)
f. cordage; braided strings, twine or rope.
2. What expedient materials do we know how to utilize.
a. insulation from heat loss to the elements
b. insulation from heat loss to ground
c. isolation from danger (camouflage)
3. Do you know how to find food and water.
a. are you familiar with the local animals and plants
b. do you know how to purify questionable water sources
c. do you know where to obtain water in an urban environment.
4. Can we handle the rigors of survival
a. Do you give up easy
b. Do you want to quit when it gets hard
c. would you give up if you were injured
d. would you 'fall apart' if you loved one is injured or killed
(more to follow, but only if you are interested)
Survival should be defined as: when emergency meets preparation.
This is only the beginners outline. There is a wide range of preparedness subjects that run the gambit from the basic band-aid to the full blown bunker. Never-the-less, you have to start somewhere and YOU HAVE TO START NOW!
I wish you well,
Ed

Pick a side!
The time has come for everyone to chose a side. We all have to align ourselves with one side or the other! You say; "what do you mean by 'sides'?" Well, let me explain.
I am a Christian. That is, I believe that Jesus Christ who is the physical representation of God on earth gave himself as a sacrifice to break the hold that Satan had on all mankind.
Now there are two responses to the above comment. Either it will be "Praise God in all blessings flow" or it will be; "Oh, you're one of those".
Do you see it? The line is drawn in the sand, maybe not physically, but the line is there none-the-less.
You can say "Well I'm not religious, but I am not against you". Trust me if you were told that Christians are the new 'enemy' of the state, you would add my name to the list!
Everyone picks a side. When the citizens of Germany ransacked the Jewish establishments during "Kristallnacht" either they were perpetrating the attacks or they were standing by watching the action. Both groups were complicit! Only people like Dietrich Bonhoeffer spoke out against the attacks. You see, even by choosing not to stop the attacks was a choice for 'that' side.
So when the current Islamo-fascist regime attacks the Christians of America you will have to choose a side!
Why should you care if you are not a Christian? Because unless your group, ethnicity, demographic or culture is 'acceptable' to this tyrannical regime you too will find yourself as a target.
Lastly, if the regime accepts you that doesn't guarantee your safety!
You see God is sovereign and will judge this regime and destroy it and all complicit parties!
So avoid the rejection and eternal judgment of Almighty God and chose the right side!
Pray, right now! Ask Jesus Christ to be your personal Lord and Savior and he will seal you with the Spirit of the Living God and you will have fellowship with the Father!
Then let me know so I can help you find the truth about our Savior and Lord in God Holy Word!

Can you share your beliefs?
I have been thinking about how difficult it is to discuss our beliefs with 'unbelievers'. There is so much at stake if we inadvertently offend the person we are sharing with. There are those of us who try to live out our beliefs on a daily basis, but are we ready to explain to people what we believe if we are asked? Now, let me clarify what I mean by my beliefs. If you have read any of my previous writings you would know that I am a believer in the Lordship of Jesus Christ or more commonly known as a Christian. However there are additional 'earthly' beliefs that I have as well. My understanding of the biblical prophecies through out the scriptures warns all believers that tough times have been planned for a long time for this earth. Part of my 'earthly' beliefs is that I should make the necessary preparations for unforeseen if not 'foretold' situations. I need to put in place the tools, food or emergency training so I can react to these 'conditions'.
There are a lot of smart people who have set up financial instruments to care for themselves and their loved ones but have they set up physical instruments, spiritual instruments for times when the money runs out or the banks close or the electronic systems that we all live on cease to function?
Everyone wants to believe that they are in a safe position based on the current 'system'. However few have accepted the 'signs' that are grossly evident in everyday news programs. The media tells everyone that 'all is well' but in reality it is a lie that they are told to tell and if they disagree with the 'party line' they are not scene on TV.
But, alas, I digress. Back at the precipice we are looking at the chasm and asking the question, why didn't anyone tell us about this? Some of us did, however we are small voices in a sea of "Babel" or should I say "Babble"?
Finally, what do we believe?

In light of current events 12.22.12
I am writing this post due to the "undercurrents" of media 'hate speak' against the conservatives and anyone who doesn't march to their tune!
Now that another horrible massacre has occurred the 'disarmers' are out in force and it there is talk of an executive order to confiscate so called assault rifles.
The January inauguration will prove to be a downward economic spiral that will burst the current economic bubble and chaos will ensue.
I have posted multiple times about food storage (www.foodforhealthinternational) plus [see site]
[Wise food supply is another American made long term storage].
I have posted about water purification systems (www.seychelle.com).
I have posted about the need to watch YouTube videos to familiarize yourself with survival issues from Basic to advanced survival gear and usage.
I have posted about 'prepping' for disasters, storms and the onset of economic chaos.
Now I have to say that everything I have been warning about is upon us.
So I want to talk about 'last resort' survival issues.
First and foremost I am a Christian! I can never align myself with this God-less One World Government so I am forced into a 'defensive' position.
For anyone who doesn't agree with this position is invited to delete this post and forget about it.
Now that we have distilled the audience down to the 'listeners' I would like to share some important information about the future.
There are trusted Christian 'prophets' (Okay, I trust them) out there who are saying:
1. There will be an economic collapse due to the Judgement that is coming to the USA.
(check out "The Harbinger" by Jonathan Cahn.)
2. Major devastating earthquakes are predicted for Los Angeles 1st, then the Seattle/Vancouver area, then it is supposed to 'rattle' up and down the San Andrea Fault between the two other major quakes.
3. This administration will sign devastating treaties with the United Nations that will dissolve the
sovereignty of this nation.
4. Finally, Israel will have to attack Iran's nuclear infrastructure to curtail Iran's attack on them. Thus plunging the world into WWIII. (See Ezekiel 38 & 39)
Finally, it is extremely important to change our 'business as usual' approach to life and start taking our preparations serious.
This message, though scary, is designed to break through the 'deception' that the media has provided to keep the sheep moving toward the slaughter house 'quietly' and in order.
I understand the hesitance, it is like the movie Matrix; take the red pill to wake up or the blue pill to stay is La La land.
If you are not a Christian, I would encourage you receive Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. This salvation is but a heartfelt prayer away.
God Bless you all.

Economic collapse avalanche?
I have been watching Europe go through the financial upheavals of late and am getting that "here we go" feeling! The US is printing money and borrowing money at a record rate. The 'financial cliff' that our government is facing in January along with the current lack of economic growth leads to a very negative outlook.
So in keeping with the previous posts and my concern for the future I would like to encourage you to get ready for a real roller coaster ride.
Let's add the uncertainty of the food supply since we have had a drought in the Midwest for a year with floods that also destroyed crops, farms and moved river paths in the North.
Overall their are quite a lot of reasons to gather a few items that might make the future little more palatable.
If you have never researched this subject I would suggest that you look on the internet for subjects like "Beginning to prep" or Urban preparedness or on YouTube for Preparedness videos.
Even if you just 'copy-can' when you go to the store that would be a beginning. Copy-can is the act of buying two cans of your normal can goods instead of just one. That way you have some stand-by in the case of a supply issue or prolonged storm and you can't get to the store.
Dependent on your geographical location having back up clothing on hand or additional water stored up may be of some comfort during an event outside of 'normal'.
All that preparation consists of is: Thinking about what you might need, could use or should have in case "something" happens out of the ordinary or the storm lasts longer or is more powerful than 'normal'.
Here are current big "IFs": If the European crisis ricochets from country to country this 'avalanche' will affect world markets which will affect the american market as well. So our current poor economical outlook could turn into a complete economic collapse.
So all I am saying is maybe us 'preppers' aren't as crazy as some imagine? Maybe we have seen what has occurred in the Balkans, Beirut and Africa when social order disintegrates, civility turns in to aggression and its the survival of the meanest. nastiest and toughest.
Alright, so now that I have painted such a dismal picture. There are ways in which to prepare for just about everything else that could happen. Of course the truth of the matter is survival is a multi-layered field of study that is as simple as carrying a few items with you in case of an emergency to gathering an entire community of like minded folk to prepare against the possible collapse of society into WROL or Without rule of law.
Never the less, you should at least have a few basic items on hand, just in case.

Of course the truth of the matter is survival is a multi-layered field of study that is as simple as carrying a few items with you in case of an emergency to gathering an entire community of like minded folk to prepare against the possible collapse of society into WROL or Without rule of law.
Never the less, you should at least have a few basic items on hand, just in case.
