WHAT DOES THE BLOG NAME MEAN?


2 Timothy 2:1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

We cannot avoid the affairs of life mentioned in Verse 4. But, we must be very sure that we do not become entangled in them. We must, through Christ and uncommon sense, master the affairs of life.

Hardness in Verse 3 is what we today call "hard times". So, good soldiers simply endure. Millions of saints and sinners have survived hard times before us. Have we learned from them, or will we repeat all the dumb choices? Hmmmmmmm

OLD TIMERS AND NEW TIMERS


What can we learn from those that roughed long ago AND now?






So, how are YOU getting prepared? We are facing total collapse by the end of 2014. You have one pretty good year in 2012. In 2013, if we elect a rational President, he will cut spending fiercely, and he will disengage the Federal Government from much of its Big Nanny role in the states. If we elect a mad man, he will go mad with frenzy and trash the nation totally. We may have our first dictator.

You may well become a lot more free when the central government is flat broke, but YOU WILL END UP HAVING TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Are you able to do that? When all the goodies you think you are entitled to are gone, then what?

Remember, you saw those old timers in Bakersfield, California in a pretty upbeat mood. They were obviously survivors. If you have no skills or will to take care of yourself, I suggest you go find some really old folks to tell you how they did it. You just might learn something.

How can you tell you are NOT ready for hard times? Answer: If you could not finish the video on the tent city, my friend, you are NOT ready to face your destiny.

What will you do when it is just you and Jesus?
