Famed pastor predicts imminent catastrophe Best-selling author, Teen Challenge founder, sees 'earth-shattering calamity about to happen' © 2009 WorldNetDaily David Wilkerson A respected pastor, best-selling author and founder of a major ministry to teens predicts an imminent "an earth-shattering calamity" centered in New York City that will spread to major urban areas across the country and around the world – part of what he sees as a judgment from God. David Wilkerson, author of "The Cross and the Switchblade," a book about his ministry to troubled New York street kids that was later made into a movie starring Pat Boone, tells readers of his blog this weekend that he is "compelled by the Holy Spirit to send out an urgent message" about his prediction. "An earth-shattering calamity is about to happen," he writes. "It is going to be so frightening, we are all going to tremble – even the godliest among us." Wilkerson's vision is of fires raging through New York City. "It will engulf the whole megaplex, including areas of New Jersey and Connecticut. Major cities all across America will experience riots and blazing fires – such as we saw in Watts, Los Angeles, years ago," he explains. "There will be riots and fires in cities worldwide. There will be looting – including Times Square, New York City. What we are experiencing now is not a recession, not even a depression. We are under God’s wrath. In Psalm 11 it is written, "If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?" Wilkerson is the founding pastor of Times Square Church in New York City, where he launched a ministry to gang members and drug addicts in 1958. He is a highly regarded mentor to other pastors in evangelical circles and travels the world holding conference for other Christian ministers. In this age of evil, be a champion for God and stand up for the absolute truth of Scripture, not the misconceptions you've been led to believe. Get "Shocked by the Bible: The Most Astonishing Facts You've Never Been Told" personally autographed! His work in New York in the 1950s and 1960s led to the formation of Teen Challenge – a nationwide ministry to reach out to people with life-controlling habits. Teen Challenge has grown to include 173 residential programs and numerous evangelism outreach centers in the United States, and 241 centers in 77 other countries. The program claims a recovery rate of 86 percent. The story of Wilkerson's first five years of ministry in New York is told in "The Cross and the Switchblade," a book he co-authored in 1963. The book became a best-selling phenomenon and more than 15 million copies have been distributed in over 30 languages. "God is judging the raging sins of America and the nations," claims Wilkerson. "He is destroying the secular foundations." Wilkerson urges everyone to stockpile a 30-day supply of food and other necessities to deal with the catastrophe he foresees. "I do not know when these things will come to pass, but I know it is not far off," Wilkerson concluded in his message. "I have unburdened my soul to you. Do with the message as you choose." A past vice president of the Southern Baptist Convention is hoping believers pay attention to Wilkerson's message. "I have known David Wilkerson for more than 25 years as well as many of his friends and associates," said Pastor Wiley Drake. "He is a godly man and I believe he is listening to God. I encourage each Christian to read and heed what God is saying through our brother."

I'm not trying to 'prove' anything. You're a God-hating, European-Socialist scum bag and I wouldn't trust you with my children. You're the kind of DOUCHE BAG that every patriot Constitutionalist should keep their eyes on. (*)
Elliott did nothing to warrant your personal attack. Do you always attack somone who you disagree with? These words by Elliott weren't directed to you and yet you saw reason to make the ugly remarks about him. Elliott said: But the moment they start pushing that mind-wrenching, illogical irrational nonsense on me, I'm going to push it right back down their throats, and they're not going to like it. Do you have some kind of problem?
I'm not trying to 'prove' anything. Actually, yes, you are. If you weren't, you wouldn't be posting here. That's rather disingenuous of you right there. You're a God-hating, European-Socialist scum bag and I wouldn't trust you with my children. Wrong again, Sparky. I have nothing against "God", but I do have a lot against "religion". I'm personally of the opinion that there is more than this life, that we do, in fact, survive death, and that it is more likely than not that there is, in fact, a "great mind" behind this reality. However, I don't pretend to understand that mind, to know what it wants, or to say that I have the authority to speak on His behalf. And THAT is where I end up butting heads with the likes of the religious bigots, simpletons and Bible- thumpers here and elsewhere. As far as my being a "European-Socialist scum bag" is concerned, the reason I keep pointing out how they do things in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark is not because I'm enamored with their ideology or because I'm somehow "married" to the idea that "socialism" is, by definition, wonderful. The reason I keep pointing those countries and their way of doing things out is because of the fact that they get results. Period. If our system of rabid Darwinistic robber-baron winner-takes-all capitalism was producing good results for a majority of the population, then I'd be all for it. But it's NOT and therefore I question it. Gosh, what a fool I must be. How DARE I take a look at other systems that are actually working and then suggest that we might learn something from them? I must be a crazy person! You're the kind of DOUCHE BAG that every patriot Constitutionalist should keep their eyes on. And you're the kind of narrow-minded moron that typifies and exemplifies the stereotype of the "Ugly American" that makes every other nation on the planet roll their eyes at us and laugh behind our backs.

I have to keep an eye on the Enemy Within, thus I have to watch sleeze bags like you as though my life depended. So I'm the "Enemy Within"? Wow... that's quite a statement. Allow me to take a moment to explain something to you. One of the hallmarks of adult thought is the ability to understand that most things are not binary in nature. For example, "Beavis and Butthead" were funny largely because of the fact that the two primary characters were simpletons, who's entire scope of understanding of the world around them was limited to "awesome" and "sucks". Everything they encountered was either "awesome" or "totally sucked". It was funny because it exemplified an extremely immature, unsophisticated, reactionary and ultimately moronic level of comprehension. The idea that you feel compelled to "watch me as though your life depended" is not only unfortunate, it's reflective of your woefully undeveloped worldview. Not everyone who agrees with you is your friend, and not everyone who disagrees with you is your enemy. I know this is an advanced concept requiring some willingness to consider sophisticated ideas and concepts, so take your time, take a deep breath, and think on it a while before firing off another reflexive, reactionary comment. You're smart enough to fool a lot of stoooooopid sheeple. I'm not looking to fool anyone... I don't claim to have all the answers, and I don't ever demand that others agree with me. What I do have is a lot of questions, and if I can get people to actually think about things then I consider that a win. As far as "fooling sheeple" goes, why would I bother? I find people who can't think for themselves boring and can't stand to be around them. Why would I bother to want to fool them? Let them drink their beer and watch their ball games and pray to some guy because someone else told them to. Fine by me, so long as I don't have to be around them or live like they do.

Allow me to share a few quotes with you and others on this board. “Patriotism is fierce as a fever, pitiless as the grave, blind as a stone and as irrational as a headless hen.” - Ambrose Bierce “Patriotism is a pernicious, psychopathic form of idiocy.” - George Bernard Shaw “A patriot sets himself apart in his own country under his own flag, sneers at other nations and keeps an army of uniformed assassins on hand at heavy expense to grab slices of other people’s countries and keep them from grabbing slices of his. In the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for ‘the universal brotherhood of man’ - with his mouth.” - Mark Twain, "The Lowest Animal" “Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all others because you were born in it.” - William Shakespeare “If the test of patriotism comes only by reflexively falling into lockstep behind the leader whenever the flag is waved, then what we have is a formula for dictatorship, not democracy... But the American way is to criticize and debate openly, not to accept unthinkingly the doings of government officials of this or any other country.” - Michael Parenti I've got some bad news for you Sparky, if anyone here is "The Enemy Within", it's you...

"The essential principles of our Government... form the bright constellation which has gone before us and guided our steps through an age of revolution and reformation. The wisdom of our sages and blood of our heroes have been devoted to their attainment. They should be the creed of our political faith, the text of civic instruction, the touchstone by which to try the services of those we trust; and should we wander from them in moments of error or of alarm, let us hasten to retrace our steps and to regain the road which alone leads to peace, liberty and safety." --1st Inaugural Address, 1801.

"When [the moral sense] is wanting, we endeavor to supply the defect by education, by appeals to reason and calculation, by presenting to the being so unhappily conformed, other motives to do good and to eschew evil, such as the love, or the hatred, or the rejection of those among whom he lives, and whose society is necessary to his happiness and even existence; demonstrations by sound calculation that honesty promotes interest in the long run; the rewards and penalties established by the laws; and ultimately the prospects of a future state of retribution for the evil as well as the good done while here. These are the correctives which are supplied by education, and which exercise the functions of the moralist, the preacher, and legislator; and they lead into a course of correct action all those whose depravity is not too profound to be eradicated." --Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Law, 1814.

He who says I will be a rogue when I act in company with a hundred others, but an honest man when I act alone, will be believed in the former assertion, but not in the latter." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1789.

I have attempted to discuss and debate with you evenhandedly, fairly and with a sense of decency and fair play. You have responded with ad hominem attacks and insults. As of now I wash my hands of you. You're a bully, a simpleton and a bore, there is nothing to be gained by debating with you, and I refuse to be dragged down to your level. Find someone else to dump your venom on, you certainly do seem to have an astonishing excess of it available.

"The human character, we believe, requires in general constant and immediate control to prevent its being biased from right by the seductions of self-love." --Thomas Jefferson to Pierre Samuel Dupont de Nemours, 1816. ME 14:489 "Self-love... is the sole antagonist of virtue, leading us constantly by our propensities to self-gratification in violation of our moral duties to others. Accordingly, it is against this enemy that are erected the batteries of moralists and religionists, as the only obstacle to the practice of morality. Take from man his selfish propensities, and he can have nothing to seduce him from the practice of virtue. Or subdue those propensities by education, instruction or restraint, and virtue remains without a competitor." --Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Law, 1814. ME 14:140 "A regard for reputation and the judgment of the world may sometimes be felt where conscience is dormant." --Thomas Jefferson to Edward Livingston, 1825.

ME 16:303 "I do not believe with the Rochefoucaults and the Montaignes that fourteen out of fifteen men are rogues. I believe a great abatement from that proportion may be made in favor of general honesty. But I have always found that rogues would be uppermost, and I do not know that the proportion is too strong for the higher orders and for those who, rising above the swinish multitude, always contrive to nestle themselves into the places of power and profit. These rogues set out with stealing the people's good opinion, and then steal from them the right of withdrawing it, by contriving laws and associations against the power of the people themselves." --Thomas Jefferson to Mann Page, 1795. ME 9:306 "Such is the moral construction of the world, that no national crime passes unpunished in the long run... Were your present oppressors to reflect on the same truth, they would spare to their own countries the penalties on their present wrongs which will be inflicted on them in future times. The seeds of hatred and revenge which they [sow] with a large hand will not fail to produce their fruits in time. Like their brother robbers on the highway, they suppose the escape of the moment a final escape and deem infamy and future risk countervailed by present gain." --Thomas Jefferson to Francois de Marbois, 1817. ME 15:130 "Crooked schemes will end by overwhelming their authors and coadjutors in disgrace, and... he alone who walks strict and upright, and who, in matters of opinion, will be contented that others should be as free as himself, and acquiesce when his opinion is fairly overruled, will attain his object in the end." --Thomas Jefferson to Gideon Granger, 1804. ME 11:25 "If pride of character be of worth at any time, it is when it disarms the efforts of malice." --Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Nelson, 1781. ME 4:364, Papers 4:677 "There are various ways of keeping truth out of sight." --Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.VI, 1782. ME 2:95 "Truths necessary for our own character must not be suppressed out of tenderness to its calumniators." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1815. ME 14:291 "In truth, I do not recollect in all the animal kingdom a single species but man which is eternally and systematically engaged in the destruction of its own species. What is called civilization seems to have no other effect on him than to teach him to pursue the principle of bellum omnium in omnia [war of all against all] on a larger scale, and in place of the little contests of tribe against tribe, to engage all the quarters of the earth in the same work of destruction. When we add to this that as to the other species of animals, the lions and tigers are mere lambs compared with man as a destroyer, we must conclude that it is in man alone that nature has been able to find a sufficient barrier against the too great multiplication of other animals and of man himself, an equilibrating power against the fecundity of generation." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1797. ME 9:360 "When great evils happen, I am in the habit of looking out for what good may arise from them as consolations to us, and Providence has in fact so established the order of things, as that most evils are the means of producing some good." --Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Rush, 1800.

I have a problem with those definitions, even if they are written by "famous" people. I believe those are definitions of nationalism, not patriotism. Patriots, IMO, are loyal to the people (of like mind, admittedly), not to the government. I'm not so loyal to the people that want to loot this country. If I am wrong about that, then I'm an anarchist of some sort and not a patriot.

Isn't that what you Zionists want to do to Iranians, Palestinians, and anyone else on Israel's enemy list?

It seems like you and your allies also want to murder people, and that the only time you have any beef with mass murder is when Jews are victims. And like it or not, the United States never had a single real conflict with the Muslim world until we allowed our government to become Israel's poodle.

THE STAINED GLASS WINDOW FROM THE FABIAN SOCIETY, Updated 2006 August 22: This is the stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England, former headquarters of the Fabian Society. It was designed by George Bernard Shaw and depicts Sidney Webb and Shaw striking the Earth with hammers to “REMOULD IT NEARER TO THE HEART’S DESIRE,” a line from Omar Khayyam. Note the wolf in sheep’s clothing in the Fabian crest above the globe. The window is now on display at the London School of Economics (LSE), which was founded by Sydney and Beatrice Webb. (Freedom Force International). THE STAINED GLASS WINDOW FROM THE FABIAN SOCIETY This is the stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England, former headquarters of the Fabian Society. It was designed by George Bernard Shaw and depicts Sidney Webb and Shaw striking the Earth with hammers to "REMOULD IT NEARER TO THE HEART'S DESIRE," a line from Omar Khayyam. Note the wolf in sheep's clothing in the Fabian crest above the globe. The window is now on display at the London School of Economics (LSE), which was founded by Sydney and Beatrice Webb. "The window was subsequently stolen from the house in 1978," says LSE's archivist, Sue Donnelly. "It surfaced in Phoenix, Arizona, soon after, but then disappeared again until it suddenly resurfaced at a sale at Sotheby's in July 2005." The window was purchased by the Webb Memorial Trust and now is on loan to the LSE where it is displayed in the schools Shaw Library. In April of 2006, the window was officially unvieled by a ceremony attended by British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who is a member of the Fabian Society. [1] The Fabians originally were an elite group of intellectuals who formed a semi-secret society for the purpose of bringing socialism to the world. Whereas Communists wanted to establish socialism quickly through violence and revolution, the Fabians preferred to do it slowly through propaganda and legislation. The word socialism was not to be used. Instead, they would speak of benefits for the people such as welfare, medical care, higher wages, and better working conditions. In this way, they planned to accomplish their objective without bloodshed and even without serious opposition. They scorned the Communists, not because they disliked their goals, but because they disagreed with their methods. To emphasize the importance of gradualism, they adopted the turtle as the symbol of their movement. The three most prominent leaders in the early days were Sidney and Beatrice Webb and George Bernard Shaw. [2] A stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England is especially enlightening. Across the top appears the last line from Omar Khayyam: Dear love, couldst thou and I with fate conspire To grasp this sorry scheme of things entire, Would we not shatter it to bits, and then Remould it nearer to the heart's desire!

Wells who, after quitting the Fabians, denounced them as "the new machiavellians." The most revealing component, however, is the Fabian crest which appears Between Shaw and Webb. It is a wolf in sheep's clothing!

Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”—Samuel Adams

Thomas Jefferson's views of religion were probably closer to Jackalope's than to yours, even though his view of government is closer to yours than to Jackalope's. The notion that America's founders were religious fundamentalists is nonsense. Jefferson even edited a version of the Bible with all references to prophecy, magic, and the supernatural removed. Franklin was a deist. Paine was an atheist. Most of the other big names (Maddison, Adams, and so on) were Anglicans or Unitarians, who aren't exactly known for Biblical literalism. People like Jerry Falwell or this Wilkerson street preacher would have been very uncomfortable in Thomas Jefferson's company, especially if they started talking abour religion.

I saw that somewhere else. Thanks for the reminder! It does give Shaw a good reason to confuse patriotism with nationalism. He wants to get rid of patriotism by smearing it with HIS fraudulent definition. Psyops. Plain and simple. .

You're welcome buddy. You can see clearly (people paying attention like us anyway) what the European Socialist moles are up to when they quote GBS.

Cimoli's baseball card in 1958 (No. 286, Topps) in which the background was painted out, shows him swinging a bat, without the bat--which was also painted out! (Source: Baseball Hall of Shame 4, Nash & Zullo) I guess we're it as far as the Gino Cimoli fan club.

I never heard of the guy, so much for his fame. But you don't have to be a rocket scientist to see that riots are not too far away. You can't continue to widen the gap between the very rich and the very poor while shrinking the middle class and not have problems. Globalists goons are about to realize they are no longer welcome in America.
God is always good!
