    Banks Are In Trouble

    Here is the latest video from Gregory Mannarino, who I believe is a voice crying in the wilderness calling on people to “unbank themselves” because the banks are in severe trouble — still. He is continually warning people about the financial trouble we are in — not just our US economy, but the world’s economy. It is serious. I believe it is wise for all of us to acknowledge the truth, align ourselves with it (in other words stand under it, which is what it means to “understand” something) and adjust our behavior to reflect what we’ve come to know & understand. I hate the thought of anyone having their…

    Free Books at the Homestead Stand

    Years ago, when we first built our Homestead Stand, I had toyed with the idea of putting a Little Free Library at the front edge of our property. (I was trying to think how we could better serve our neighborhood and get folks in the local area to come around.) But, with all the other things going on around here, that thought got put onto the back, back burner.

    The Great Taking

    Yesterday I came across a book that was published earlier this year called, The Great Taking by David Rogers Webb. (It’s available for free online as a .pdf. And there’s a documentary available to watch addressing some of what’s covered in the book.) I read it all in one sitting and found the information very enlightening. (I also appreciated learning more about the author’s backstory, found in the prologue of the book.) The opening paragraph of the first chapter states: What is this book about? It is about the taking of collateral, all of it,the end game of this globally synchronous debt accumulation supercycle. This is being executed by long-planned,…

    Preserving Food for the Long Haul

    With the gardens being put to bed, the days getting shorter and the temperatures getting colder, I’ve been turning more of my attention indoors. It is time for me to fire up the freeze dryer again. 🙂 We acquired this machine last year when we needed to free up a bunch of space in our chest freezers to make room for the next batch of cows we were having processed. And I must say, I have found that purchase to be one of our best investments ever made.

    Christians, Test Your Worldview

    For all the Christians out there, how well do you really know what the Bible says? Have you studied to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth? Or have you trusted your leaders to teach you the truth and then leaned on their understanding of the Bible to shape your worldview? In Whom Have You Put Your Trust? I’m afraid there are a lot of lost sheep in the world who believe they have found their way because they are in the company of other sheep who all follow a shepherd, showing them which way to go,…

    Bye-Bye Travel As We’ve Known It

    The Great Travel Reset is currently underway, and I’m afraid most people are unaware. Several years ago now, I heard of “net zero” through Ice Age Farmer and came to understand the PTSB’s plans to transform transportation worldwide — by eliminating carbon emissions to net zero. Essentially, they want to destroy our modern transportation system. And I’m not just talking about restricted air travel. They want to take away our cars. Whether or not they are able to pull off their net zero agenda, the fact remains… Life as we’ve always known it (& currently experience) is going to change drastically. And I have to ask, Are we prepared to…

    It Can’t Stay the Same

    I understand there are many who would like things to return to normal — to go back to the way it was before 2020, or even before 9/11/01. However, we can’t go back. Too much has been set in motion that has triggered too much to undo. So, we have to face the reality of our situation. We’re never going back to that way of life. And then, there are those who want to hold onto what exists today – to want to continue to use cash in commerce and freely move about without being surveilled and having to “identify yourself” and/or “show your papers”. However, it can’t stay the…

    The System Doesn’t Care

    I think it’s important for us all to realize that the System doesn’t care about us or for us — it just does for us. Whether we’re talking economics, politics, justice or religion — they all don’t care. The Economic System Our economic system enables us to get things as long as we continually feed it with our life force by exchanging our time & energy for dollars. But it doesn’t value our time & energy because look what we get in exchange for it: worthless dollars (or digits on a screen). And then, look at the value of the various systems within our economic system. Do any of them…

    Save Yourself & Potentially Others

    We have to develop a way out for people — a way for people to live outside the System — to live and not need the Banksters’ money to do so. And it starts with having our own way to live without the need for their money. Exit & Build Unbank yourself and pull out of their System. Prepare for the halting of society when either banks close or the banking system locks up. Because the time is coming when you will no longer be able to use your credit cards, debit cards & checks, and savings held in those institutions have the potential to go “poof” (disappear) overnight. (“FDIC-insured”…

    Not A Holy War

    No. No. No. It is not a holy war. It is an unholy war. A banker’s war. Profiteer war. They play chess while your sons and innocent civilians bleed out on the checkers board. This war is not justified. It was started with a false flag by a wicked government sacrificing it’s own citizens. Mere checkers of citizens. There are humans on both sides of the board. Good humans. Humans with awesome capacity to take after our Father. Remove the hate from your heart. Keep the thoughts of murder far from you. Mind your own gates. Do not believe what they are feeding you. Wars are contrivances of your controllers. Do…
