Bible Prophecy with Hal Lindsey
Guests: Hal Lindsey, Pat Buchanan
Bible Prophecy:
Hal Lindsey's influential book The Late Great Planet Earth described the undeniable signs of the end times: the rebirth of Israel, war in the Middle East, natural disasters, and many others. On Monday's show, he discussed how current events are now lining up with Bible prophecy in an unprecedented manner. He listed a number of the signs or "birth pangs" that we are nearing the prophesied end times: wars, great earthquakes, revolution, ethnic fighting, plagues, and famine. Biblical prophecy points to all these signs appearing simultaneously, and occurring with increasing intensity, which Lindsey believes is happening now.
The Bible also warns of "terrors and great signs from the heavens," as a precursor to end times. Lindsey believes this is related to UFO activity, and the UFO occupants are "fallen angels that are developing a pattern of deception so that when the Antichrist appears he can explain away what happened to all the believers of Jesus Christ that suddenly disappeared" (in the Rapture). The Antichrist will be known as the most tremendous leader the world has ever seen "with supernatural intelligence from Satan," and be able to convince the world that he has the power to bring in peace and prosperity, he said. At that point the economy will be in such upheaval that everyone will agree there has to be a central power, and a cashless society, Lindsey continued.
Another Bible warning refers to "signs in the sun, and the moon, and the stars...and the roaring of the sea and the waves." Lindsey pointed to climate change being caused by an increase in solar activity. The Book of Revelation talks about "a heat wave to end all heat waves" that's going to occur during that final seven years before Christ returns, he noted. As the planet heats up, storms are going to get greater and greater, he added.
American Decline:
First hour guest, columnist Pat Buchanan talked about his new book, S uicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025? He foresees that in the years to come America will not exist as a country anymore except "as a collection of tribes who are basically at war with each other over riches and rewards." The US can't control its borders, balance its budget, or win its wars, and its "cradle faith" of Christianity is declining, he continued. Buchanan also cited the massive transfer of production out of the US into China as part of the American downfall
The Prison Industrial Complex in America
There are more prisoners in the United States than any other nation in the world. The country makes up five percent of the world population, but accounts for 25 percent of its prison population. And over the last three decades the number held in US federal prisons has jumped by nearly 80 percent. So, what is the impact of the high incarceration rate on the penal system and on poor communities? To discuss this, Inside Story Americas with presenter Shihab Rattansi is joined by guests: David Fathi, the director of the American Civil Liberties Union National Prison Project; Matthew Mangino, a former district attorney in Pennsylvania; and Marc Mauer, the executive director of The Sentencing Project, and author of the book Race to Incarcerate.
Max Keiser : Goodbye, German Gold?
"Rothschild was created by German your own fault." Not exactly, Rothschild got rich financing the war between UK and Napoleon, then basically took over the CIty of London and has built the corporate empire from there on. Fed is owned by or consists of Rothschild minion banks, too... Warburg Bank, Rothschild ( Chase Manhattan Bank ), Lehman Brothers, Lazard Brothers, Kuhn Loeb, Israel Moses Seif, Goldman Sachs...Germany's central bank is to bring back almost 700 tonnes of gold reserves it keeps in New York and Paris. This is scary.Wait until they realize their gold is gone. ....Germany has been shafted by the evil trinity, the USA, Britain, and Russia.
St. Malachy & Pope Prophecies ~ Coast To Coast AM - 02.18.2013
Coast To Coast AM - 02.18.2013 - St. Malachy & Pope Prophecies
Date: 02-18-13
Host: George Noory
Guests: John Hogue, Bruce Helmer
With the advent of Pope Benedict XVI's sudden resignation, author John Hogue discussed the prophecies of St. Malachy, the 12th century Irish bishop who predicted all the subsequent popes following a vision. Malachy was on a pilgrimage in Rome in 1140 and while situated on a hill at sunset, he "went into an ecstatic trance; his serving monks around him put out candles and paper and started writing down...his utterances of 2 or 3 word Latin mottoes," Hogue explained. This list was handed to Pope Celestine II, he continued, and was presented as a prophecy of the succession of the Popes with the mottoes representing the name or heraldry of the next 111 Popes, until the Catholic version of the Apocalypse occurs with the selection of the 112th Pope (the Pope after Benedict will be the 112th). Interestingly, Malachy's prophecy disappeared until it was rediscovered in 1595, and there was suspicion that it was a forgery.
The motto Malachy indicated for the 112th Pope referenced the name Petrus Romanus or Peter of Rome, and Hogue analyzed a number of possible candidates with Peter in their name, though he suspects the next Pope will likely be someone hailing from Italy. According to approved Catholic prophecy (which differs from Malachy's), there are several stages leading up to the Apocalypse, including a time of miracles, with mass healings, Marian apparitions, and signs in the heavens. Hogue wondered if the current spate of meteors and fireballs, as well as the coming of the bright comet ISON later this year might relate to this.
He also reviewed prophecies of Nostradamus that could relate to our current time frame, the Popes, and the Apocalypse. When Nostradamus wrote "when the great Pontiff will change lands," this could refer to how the next Pope could become a refugee after the destruction of Rome, Hogue said.

Financial Planning
First hour guest, finance advisor Bruce Helmer offered tips on financial planning. He suggesting that if people consistently invest 10% of their income (your 401K contribution counts toward this), they will probably have enough to retire comfortably when they choose. He believes the stock market is currently undervalued, even though it's near its all time high. "I think it's still under priced, but that doesn't meant there won't be some pullback and volatility...but I think the trend is going to continue up.
