Obviously all this is happening at the same time, not by the hand of men or even an idependant demonic force. God is using both and nature to bring about His good and perfect will, judgement of this present age. Jesus said my kingdom is not of this world (cosmos) but a cosmos to come. Our hope is not in this age but the one that comes when Christ returns to establish His kingdom.
"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him." [1 John 2: 15]
For those who are waiting for the Return of Jesus Christ as King of kings it is not a stretch to label the USA as “Mystery Babylon”. Mystery Babylon is a phrase that appears only once in the Bible, in Revelation 17:5. It refers to a woman who is described as the "mother of harlots and of the abominations of the earth." Many interpretations have been derived from this one vague passage, made by an angel of YHVH describing the prostitute in Revelation 17 verse 18. The narrative of the Whore of Babylon follows many of the same patterns of the women who commit "prostitution/whoredom" and/or "adultery" in the prophetic books of the Hebrew/Christian Bible. The whore of Babylon, whoever it is, is closely affiliated with the end-times Antichrist. The passage does give us some clues, but we cannot be completely certain as to her identity. Mystery Babylon is an in-depth look at the prophecy of Revelation 17 and 18.
I am pretty much convinced that Mystery Babylon is the Catholic Church! Christianity joined itself to Roman Paganism and the Apostate Church was the result!
"... cities are being absolutely overwhelmed by endless waves of new migrants...."
Hello Michael, 'new migrants"??
Is that what they are? I thought they were an endless wave of invaders, mostly men of military age, intentionally & deliberately allowed to enter, facilitated & succored, by the Democrats and widely dispersed throughout the USA ready for..... well, who knows what?
C'mon Michael, you've never been afraid of calling a spade a shovel when necessary, so surprinting to see this ambivalent language now. They ae invaders, pure & simple.
With the inmates running the asylum, is anyone surprised? I kinda like the saying the blind leading the blind. I think preppers are missing the point, the warning signs should make us see that the show is in the final scene, and we need to be ready to exit this world for the next. If you're in a bunker somewhere, you can't do Gods work.
"And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, 'Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.'" "And strong is the Lord who judges her"
Michael Snyder dies not believe in a pre-tribulation rapture. Let’s hope he’s wrong. It will not matter much how well you prep. They will find you and take your preps away.
"destructive natural disasters are becoming more frequent . . . "
No, the real data shows that events such as storms, earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity are all quite within normal levels. All the hype about things, including wildfires, getting worse is nothing but Climate Alarmist made-up fear mongering propaganda! Why? To further their carbon credit and carbon tax scams, and to get people to believe in the religion of Global Warming with its absolutions of "Green Energy" to get the world into "sustainability" heaven! The problem is that, like all made-up religions ("Heaven's Gate" or Jim Jones, anyone?), it is pure unrealistic fantasy. There IS NO "climate crisis", and the ONLY PLACE IT EXISTS is inside of the Alarmists' General Circulation Climate Models! And guess what? Somebody can write a computer model to come up with ANY result they want. And that's exactly what the frauds with the IPCC and East Anglia and Michael Mann and cohort did! They didn't even make it remotely reflect reality (actual observations) by including any of the acknowledged main drivers (forcings) of climate ("IT'S THE SUN, STUPID"!!!!). They faked the data, arbitrarily changed records to match their narrative, lied through their teeth repeatedly, and conned the scientifically-illierate into swallowing their B.S. power-grabbing scam!
Any one of those three things will lead to your death. Rationally, from that list, oxygen (breathing air) and water are the most critical.
- Air is pretty much taken for granted, but is an easy and common means of polluting us. Contrived viruses and chemtrails are the most common threats, but radioactive nuclei are absolutely effective and could be all around you without your knowledge. A good half-face respirator is essential for airborne contaminants, and a full-face respirator (gas mask) will protect your vision as well. Many cartridges for respirators are rated to combat radiation as well as chemical agents.
- Water is the point of this post. Clean, potable water will become increasingly difficult to locate as the apocalypse extends. It will be the ultimate decider of who lives. Even at the outset, with grids down and water treatment facilities non-functional, truly healthy water may be like the holy grail.
Prepare accordingly. A deep water well with a dependable pump and an energy source to keep it functional in a grid-down scenario may be your best bet. I keep IV administration kits and saline IV solution on-board to help those who have ingested foul water, since they will be unable to re-hydrate themselves orally.
- Food, at least in my mind, is an obstacle but is generally negotiable with preparation. Securing seeds, nutrients, possibly hydroponic supplies and or a greenhouse to get one through the Geo-engineered arctic blasts may help to ensure harvests. Fertilizers and even soil may be difficult to obtain.
Hope this helps a bit....I've been doing the above for nearly 20 years, "Hope and Change" meant many different things to different people, but it screamed "STOP! CAUTION! CHANGE TO WHAT? since it was emanating from a commie jihadist who just happened to be a world-class perv. and dope fiend.
Guido, thank you for your comment. Only recently I learned how well Barack Hussein Obama and Michelle Obama hid from We the People the fact of BHO's homosexuality.
"Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them." [Romans 1: 28-32]
I believe the hussein o'blome "first family" was intentionally meant as the most offensive, anti-God and equality stunt they were able to visualize, then actually make into reality. A flaming 'mo dopester, a transformer man as a wife, and a couple of non-descript bastard young'ns from unknown origins to round-out the scam.
There was nothing about that resident select's "family" that was/is the slightest bit good, right, true, or anything else of any sanctity. Or, even an actual family.
Offending the sensibilities of any God-fearing "Murican was their goal, and they sure succeeded in their goals with me!
I know it sounds defeatist, but as I close in on 70 years old, I don't think that I want to survive a societal collapse. If I can't go to Church or outside, go shopping, turn on a TV or meet a friend for lunch, I would just as soon meet my maker. I have watched too many series (The Walking Dead) and movies (Mad Max) to think survival in that climate would be anything but a nightmare. You would need more than food and shelter. You would have to be willing to kill many other people who are trying to take your supplies. I just don't have it in me.
Alanna, I know what you mean about killing others over food and supplies. The idea of killing another for food is abhorrent. Revelation 3:10 reads: "Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth."
I am prepared to take care of self and family.... I just believe God is not going to allow believers to get to the point where we have to live in bunkers and use the survival food we have to survive for several years. If I’m wrong, then I welcome a quick exit with a 9mm to the back of my head as I know I will go to heaven. To live is Christ but to die is gain.
Micheal is not addressing that if you are a Christian God will provide and protect in supernatural ways. I am prepared as much as I can be but my source of peace is Christ. I believe in a pre-trib rapture in which case I and all other believers will not suffer what we see coming. God has not appointed his bride, the church, to wrath. In a weird way, the crazier I see things getting, the happier I am because I know my redemption draws nigh. Maranatha!
<"In fact, one recent survey discovered that a whopping 71.2 percent of all Americans “have no faith in the U.S. government to save them or prevent a doomsday event”…>
The above is a description of "CoG" (Continuity of Government) one of those very bittersweet gems placed in the Patriot Act by our noble gubmint lackeys "Da Bushies".
In essence, the existence and protection of government is their one and only goal in an apocalyptic situation. The existence and protection of "their constituents" is absolutely irrelevant.
Why do we require a government when we have no rule of law or societal norms any more? Or even existing citizens who "require gubmint oversight?" Because THEY MAKE THE LAWS! And for the most part, we as "participatory citizens" are not only uninformed, but also unconcerned.
So, these elitist sphincters matter enormously, we minions are simply here to do their bidding.
In "Preparing For The Collapse Of Society" take care in with whom you discuss the current political environment and the collapsing American empire. I live in deep blue Colorado and I have noticed how defensive many people are when confronted with the political reality that the Biden Administration and the Democrat Party are intentionally destroying the USA.
"Be wise as a serpent and innocent as a dove" and keep your mouths shut around strangers.
Prepare. If you are waiting for God to rapture you then you will get raptured. Not just in the way you think. But then again, when a pre-trib rapture lunatic takes a 9mm to the back of the skull they will probably reason that that was the method that God chose to rapture them. Which is fine as there won't be enough food to go around anyway. I intend to go down swinging as it's our duty to life to be as hard as possible to kill.
There is no need to insult people who believe that they are going to be raptured out of this coming chaos that is at our doors.
After all they have scriptures to back up what they believe. Here are several of them if you care to read them. Jeremiah 4:6-7, Isaiah 26:19-21, Psalms 50:1-6, Zephaniah 2:1-3, Malachi 3:16-17, Matthew 3:11-12, John 14:1-3, Corinthians 15:51-52, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18, 1 Thessalonians 5:9, Revelation 3:10 etc.
It is much easier for me to believe this than it is to have no hope or go into denial. No one is going to be able to prep for is coming upon this nation and the world, If you try to resist, a drone is coming to your address. The hope for me is the Lord Jesus Christ and His words.
Every man is entitled to believe whatever they choose to believe.
No one should call you a lunatic for not believing. There are people such as myself that believe that hundreds of millions of people are on their way into the flames of hell.
In fact Jeremiah the Prophet and John the Prophet of the Apocalypse indicates that it will be close to 2 billion or more. Jeremiah 25:33, Revelation 6:8.
This why it is imperative that we try to reach as many people as possible with the truth.
Pride among believers is one of the prime reasons why the Spirit of the Lord can't move like He wants to.
I have missed it at times when it came to my understanding of what the Word of God says.
I simply humbled myself and said I see what the Spirit of the Lord had given to someone else.
We have all missed it in our understanding of some things in the Word of God.
I don't know and understand it all.
The Spirit of the Lord is the Spirit who gives understanding. Job 32:8, Isaiah 11:1-2.
It’s kind of foolish to tell people about your doomsday preparations…. In the Daily Mail!
This truly the end of the world as we know it.
Obviously all this is happening at the same time, not by the hand of men or even an idependant demonic force. God is using both and nature to bring about His good and perfect will, judgement of this present age. Jesus said my kingdom is not of this world (cosmos) but a cosmos to come.

Amen and amen brother. I just saw a note from Worthy brief, Biden may ban Christian people from adopting, due to their faith.
Michael Snyder dies not believe in a pre-tribulation rapture. Let’s hope he’s wrong. It will not matter much how well you prep. They will find you and take your preps away.
Neither do I believe in a "pre-tribulation rapture".
Speak for yourself. As for me, I'm going down swinging.
Me too... I’ll get some of them before they get me.
If they look for me and find me, I'm a goner anyway. Why else would they look for me?
Prep's allow me to set the stage somewhat, not to be at their mercy. I can only resist as I am alive.
Onward, Christian soldiers!

Well said Faith.
The "three 3's":
1) - 3 minutes without O2
2) - 3 days without H2O
3) - 3 weeks without nutrients (food)
Any one of those three things will lead to your death. Rationally, from that list, oxygen (breathing air) and water are the most critical.
