Weekly Update by Mark Armstrong – September 22, 2023

Greetings from Tyler,

The scenes from the border are unbelievable.  Here they come.  It was bad before, but now it’s even worse.  It’s not like a one time arrival of some group, it’s thousands of people waiting to be signed up for a court date two years out.  Who can stand to watch?  When, in world history, has any nation agreed to such a thing?  Reports come only once or twice a day, but this travesty goes on around the clock.  The pretender says it’s Trump’s fault.  Texas Governor Abbot has declared an invasion, for all the good it will do.  Even talking about the situation at the border is terribly depressing. 

Zelensky appeared at the United Nations this week.  Why, you ask?  To lecture us about global warming?  He’s fixing to start WWIII at our expense and he thinks we’re going to listen to him blather on about global warming?  Something about this whole Ukraine war thing doesn’t make sense.  Why are we contributing many times what the Europeans are?  And they want planes.  Everything we’ve got, military wise, Zelensky needs.  Does somebody think Ukraine is going to defeat Russia?  

He may have queered the whole deal.  It seems he’s irritated his benefactors in Poland, which had contributed money and arms.  Now Zelensky is suing them over a grain deal?  That might be a mistake.  

We knew when we saw the first example of a flash mob that there was going to be trouble.  Now they’re flash-mobbing department stores, high end stores, and stealing everything whether it’s locked down or not.  In some places stores are having to leave their expensive real estate and close.  It’s a trend.  The downtown districts of America are becoming dangerous, if they weren’t already. Big name merchandisers can’t make a go of it if their luxury items are walking out the door.  The thieves always get away.  Social justice, you know.

I don’t know how, but everyone seems to think the pretender is going to run for a second term.  They better cheat even better than last time.  They better hope they don’t win.  They’ve already put the U. S. in a downward spiral, economically and internationally.  With the national debt now at something like 32 trillion, and spending money that doesn’t exist on global warming and the war in Ukraine, it makes you wonder what’s next?  It’s like those in power are in a race to destroy everything.  The Constitution can just take a back seat, they’ve got problems to solve.  At our expense.

We’re going to leave to go to the Feast of Tabernacles next week. The day of Atonement, an annual High Day, begins at sundown Sunday night and we will be conducting a service on Monday.  We have Feast of Tabernacles sites in several wonderful locations and we are looking forward to the celebration of the time when we won’t have to worry about thievery and destruction. We won’t have to worry that we’re being spent into oblivion. It’s a wonderful break when God’s people get together, away from the nonsense. But some of us will still be paying attention. Have a great Feast!
