PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, January 11, 1980
Page 3
The European nations have relied on U.S. armed and nuclear strength
to protect them from the Russian satellites bordering them on the east.
Again, WHERE ARE WE, at this moment?
President Carter has been concentrating on 50 U.S. people in Iran.
Now Russia is employing MILITARY MIGHT. At least 100,000 troops are now
in Afghanistan, and more on the way. President Carter says he is trying
every option short of military force.
But the Kremlin, even after Mr. Carter called Mr. Brezhnev on the HOT
LINE, has USED MILITARY FORCE! They will not be deterred by anything
short of SUPERIOR MILITARY FORCE! The embargo on grain and fish may hurt
Russia A LITTLE--like a slap on the wrist--but their military forces will
keep marching on! Don't for a moment suppose the men at the Kremlin are
so stupid that they actually started this MILITARY intervention without
first calculating such meager retaliation as these embargos! The men at
the Kremlin figured that the stakes were WORTH IT!
Meanwhile, consider this from the viewpoint of London, Bonn, Paris
and Rome. Mr. Carter is indulging in wrist-slapping, while the Bear
lumbers right along--and EUROPE FEARS IT MAY BE NEXT! THAT IS THEIR FEAR!
I see in this a real fear in Western Europe, that will FORCE European
leaders and the Vatican to get their heads together in mutual DEFENSE-
European civil nations against nuclear military invasion, and the Roman
Curia and Papacy against atheism making inroads over all Europe! In their
eyes, President Carter is DOING NOTHING--and Russia is MOVING!
When we entered the decade of the '80s just eight days ago as I write,
the world entered an entirely NEW BALL GAME!
The WHOLE WORLD SITUATION HAS SUDDENLY CHANGED! But Washington is
BLINDED!
Jesus said, "O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky, but
can ye not discern the signs of the times?" (Matt. 16:3).
Prophecy says Ephraim and Manasseh would be stupid in worldly poli
tics, and they are!
But for US? Can WE discern the signs of the times? END-TIME EVENTS
are going to happen FAST from here on! The '80s well might see the END
of this present world; WAKE UP!
