Wczoraj, pytanie została wysłana na mój Zapytaj Rich strony przez Tyrone Kaina. Dla mojej wygody czytelnika, mam dołączone jego pytania o:

Tak bogaty, jeśli ci faceci [Kenneth Copeland i jego kumple] są pozory, co w niej jest dla nich? Nie daje błogosławieństwo pochodzi z [czy] to [do] t dół lub kogoś innego? Czy masz lepsze środki udostępniania nadzieję, że ktoś? Biblia mówi, zagładą nędzarzy ich własne ubóstwo (Prz 10,15). Ubóstwo nie jest zła? Paweł mówi nam o uwolnienie od obecnego złego świata (Galatów 1:4). On mówi teraz lub gdy umieramy? Ewangelia nie jest dobrą wiadomością, w którym Paweł powiedział, że "nie jest wstyd za to jest moc Boga" i że prowadzi ona do zbawienia, a w greckim i hebrajskim nie ma zbawienia ponad ur. doświadczenie jeszcze raz? Nie jest "siła" jest słowo Boże? Czy Biblia nie stwierdza, że "Wszystko jest możliwe, aby ci, którzy uwierzyli" (Mk 9:23) i że "Bóg jest w stanie zrobić powyżej i obficie przede wszystkim, że można prosimy czy zgodnie z mocą, że wyrabia w nas "(Ef 3:20)? Jeśli Duch Święty we mnie świadczy to, co ci faceci mówią, według Pisma, to co jest problem? Prosze o pomoc brata-nie z bicia i badgering nauczycieli dobrobytu, ale z Pisma Świętego, który mnie wyzwoli z obecnym świecie [zła i] dają mi nadzieję. Jak [nie] Joe regularnie jak ja, zgodnie z Pisma Świętego, żywej obfite życie, że Jezus umarł za? Dziękuję bardzo panie. Czekam na odpowiedzi.

Należy pamiętać, że pozwoliłem sobie zrobić duże edytować jego komentarz na korzyść czytelników. Jednak nadal można zobaczyć jego oryginalny post bez edycji na Zapytaj Rich strona z linkiem do tej odpowiedzi. W tym czasie, tutaj jest moja odpowiedź:

_________________________________

Tyrone Brother,

Dziękujemy za opublikowanie pytań, choć muszę przyznać, że zrobiłeś to trochę trudne do rozszyfrowania dla mnie wyzwanie korzystanie z tekstu. Proszę wziąć to łatwe dla mnie kolejnym komentarz, dobrze Bro?: •)

Jak najbliżej mogę powiedzieć, musisz przeczytać mój post Jak wiem (i dlaczego skarcony) Kenneth Copeland i nieodebranych pełnego kontekstu mojej wypowiedzi. Pozwól mi spróbować wyjaśnić pokrótce o co w tym post, a ja tu również odniesienie innych stanowisk, gdzie można uzyskać jeszcze więcej informacji na temat tych zagadnień. Po drodze, postaram się odpowiedzieć na niektóre pytania, jakie w komentarzu.

Dobrobytu jest dobre:

Zacznę, wskazując, że wydaje się, myślisz, że jestem przeciwko biblijne przykazanie, że Bóg kocha prosperować własne dzieci, nie jestem. Jeśli rzut oka po tej stronie, można zobaczyć wiele innych artykułów napisanych przeze mnie w zakresie ekonomii i finansów, a nawet obraz animowany złotą monetę w prawej kolumnie. Byłbym przeciw dobrobytu i obejmowała wszystkie te na moim własnym blogu posługi?

Poświęć kilka chwil na zwrócenie szczególnej uwagi na co najmniej trzy z moich artykułów: Ekonomia, Gold, a Słowo Pana, część 1 i część 2 , i Proroków-Come-Ostatnio (i ich nieudolnych Counsel) . Przez te można uzyskać lepszy pomysł, gdzie idę w zakresie od tego, jak tak zwana "dobrobyt" jest nauczana obecnie przez niektórych, takich jak Copeland i wielu jego przyjaciół. Kilka innych stanowisk związanych na tym blogu ) pomoże zrozumieć bardziej pełny obraz tego, jak Biblia wyjaśnia osoba może rozwijać się fizycznie, nawet w dużych recesji lub depresji, takich jak światowa znajduje się teraz.

Duża liczba odpowiednio określone życia:

Jeśli chodzi o Twoje pytanie, "Jak regularne Joe, jak ja, zgodnie z Pisma Świętego, żywej obfite życie, że Jezus umarł?" Pozwól mi najpierw zwrócić uwagę na właściwe określenie "życie obfite", do którego Jezus miał na myśli. Wydaje się, że myślisz, że odwołanie się do "bogate życie" był materiał o dobrobyt. Jednak, że nie jest to, co Biblia określa ją jako:

Złodziej przychodzi tylko kraść, zabijać i niszczyć, a ja przyszedłem, aby miały życie i miały je w obfitości. ( Jan 10:10, nasb )

consist in the abundance of the things he possesses .” ( Luke 12:15, NKJV ) On [Jezus] rzekł do nich: "Uważajcie i strzeżcie się wszelkiej chciwości, bo całe życie nie polega na obfitości rzeczy posiada." ( Łukasza 12:15, NKJV )

Dla królestwa Bożego nie jest jedzenie i picie, ale to sprawiedliwość, pokój i radość w Duchu Świętym. ( Rzymian 14:17, nasb )

A gdy wymaga się od faryzeuszów, kiedy królestwo Boże powinno pochodzić, On im odpowiedział i rzekł: Królestwo Boże nie przyjdzie z obserwacji: Ani oni powiedzą: Oto tu! i oto jest! Bo oto królestwo Boże jest w was. ( Łukasza 17:20-21, KJV )

Mój drogi bracie, "bogate życie", że Jezus przyszedł, aby dać nam nie ma nic wspólnego z materiałem dobrobytu, z wyjątkiem prawdopodobnych skutków ubocznych, gdy sprawiedliwy spacery w zgodności ze Słowem Bożym w czasie. "Bogate życie" Jezus mówił o to królestwo Boże w wierzącego, który jest zdefiniowany jako "sprawiedliwość, pokój i radość w Duchu Świętym". "Bogate życie" jest taki sam, życie wieczne, że Jezus przyszedł, aby dać nas przez Jego śmierć, pogrzeb i zmartwychwstanie.

Czy Paweł apostoł ma "bogate życie"? Zaprawdę, zaprawdę, tak. Uważa jednak, że to, co jest napisane w Biblii o tym, co Paweł głosił:

[Paweł i Barnaba] głosił dobrą nowinę w tym mieście i zdobył wielu uczniów. Potem wrócili do Listry, Ikonium i do Antiochii, umacniając uczniów i zachęcanie ich do pozostania wiernym wiary. "Musimy przejść przez wiele trudności, aby wejść do królestwa Bożego", mówili. ( Dz 14:21-22, NIV )

Zauważ, że Paul "głosił dobrą nowinę" (tj. Ewangelię), ale także upominał nowych wierzących, że idą trudności występują także (np. prześladowania). Nie powiedział, "wszystkie problemy są ponad", ponieważ Paweł wiedział z pierwszej ręki, że z pewnością nie było przypadku:

Hebrajczykami są? Tak jestem ja Izraelitami są? Ja także ich potomstwem Abrahama? Ja także się sługami Chrystusa?-Mówię to jako głupi jestem bardziej: w trudach bardziej obfite, w paski powyżej środka, w więzieniach częściej, w wieku często. Od Żydów pięciokrotnie I otrzymała czterdzieści paski minus jeden. Trzy razy byłem bity rózgami, raz I został ukamienowany, trzy razy byłem rozbitkiem, dzień i noc byłem w głębokości, często w podróży, w niebezpieczeństwach wód, w niebezpieczeństwach od zbójców, w niebezpieczeństwach od własnego rodaków, w niebezpieczeństwach od pogan, w niebezpieczeństwach w mieście, w niebezpieczeństwach na pustkowiu, w niebezpieczeństwach na morzu, w niebezpieczeństwach od fałszywych braci; w zmęczenia i znoju, bezsenność często, w głodzie i pragnieniu, w postach często, w zimnie i nagości, oprócz innych rzeczy, co będzie na mnie codziennie: głęboką troskę o wszystkie Kościoły. ( 2 Koryntian 11:22-28, NKJV )

Nie, że jestem co oznacza, że byłem w żadnych osobistych chce, bo nauczyli się, jak być treści (spełnione do momentu, kiedy nie jestem zaniepokojony lub niepokoił) w jakich jestem. Wiem, jak się upokorzony i żyję w trudnych warunkach, i wiem również jak korzystać z życia w obfitości i bogactwa. Dowiedziałem się w wszelkie okoliczności sekret stoi każdej sytuacji, czy dobrze karmione i głoduje, o tyle wystarczające i będzie zamiennych lub bez i jest w potrzebie. Mam siły na wszystkie rzeczy w Chrystusie, który upoważnia mnie [ Jestem gotowy na wszystko i nic równa przez Tego, który zaszczepia wewnętrznej siły do mnie, jestem samowystarczalna w wystarczalność] w Chrystusie. ( Filipian 4:11-13, AMP )

Mój drogi bracie, jeśli Paweł nie uważa ziemskiego komfort i dobra materialne, które mają być "życia w obfitości", że Jezus miał na myśli, dlaczego my? Pan na pewno chce błogosławić Jego dzieci, On "pragnie ponad wszystko, że będziemy szczęśliwi, i być w służbie zdrowia, tak jak nasze dusze prosperować", tak jak John zrobił dla Gaius ( 3 Jana 2 ). material prosperity, because wealth will ruin the fools ( Proverbs 1:32 ). On również obiecuje dostarczyć tych, którzy będą patrzeć na Niego zbawienia (np. Psalm 91 ). Jednakże kluczem jest to, że wierzący muszą pomyślnie pierwszy w duszy, z prawdziwego życia obfite. Powinno to nastąpić przed materialnego dobrobytu, bogactwa, ponieważ będzie ruiny głupców ( Przysłów 01:32 ). Bóg jest zbyt dobry Ojca Niech jego dzieci stają się "zniszczony" ze względu na brak duchowej dojrzałości w zakresie spraw materialnych.

Tak, Tyrone, Twoja definicja musi być zdefiniowane Biblii ... i nie Copeland określone. Ten ostatni będzie Ci w kłopoty doktrynalnie i w inny sposób. To prowadzi mnie do dyskusji / biblijne analizy kilka błędów doktrynalnych Copeland jest ...

Błędy teologiczne Copeland:

Na początek chciałbym zauważyć, po pierwsze, że jak wiem (i dlaczego skarcony) Kenneth Copeland post przeczytać na RichVermillion.com miał zrobić dwie rzeczy:

1 - Aby wyjaśnić sprawę o współpracy z moich byłych Copeland. (I znowu, gdybym był anty-dobrobyt, nigdy bym z nim w pierwszej kolejności?)

2 - Aby zwrócić uwagę na KennethCopelandBlog.com projektu. nich, I am (w czasie) z wyszczególnieniem coraz więcej grzechów, z których Kenneth Copeland i jego rodzina potrzebują nawrócenia.

Odwiedź KennethCopelandBlog.com stronie kontekstu i dodatkowych informacji i zwrócenia szczególnej uwagi na prawo po niej, Rev Poprzednia nagana Hagin z dnia Kenneth Copeland . nich, znajdziesz w nim, że sam "ojciec" Słowa ruchu Wiara się wcześniej rozkazał Kenneth Copeland (i inne) popychając ich "dobrobyt" nauczania w skrajności, że naruszone Pisma Świętego. Innymi słowy, nawet "założyciel" z tak zwanych "wiadomości dobrobytu", powiedział, że Kenneth Copeland i wiele innych "kaznodzieje dobrobytu" posunął się za daleko i miał zdobyć w błąd w wyniku. Tak, jestem po prostu powtarzając Hagin punktu w tym zakresie.

Czy istnieje "Ewangelii Prosperity"?:

Teraz, w odniesieniu do samej Ewangelii, polecam przeczytać mój post pt, REAL Ewangelii , tutaj na tym samym blogu. I w nim uwagę na istotne elementy prawdziwego prezentacji Ewangelii, które wyłożyli Paul King Agryppa w Dz 26:20 , kiedy powiedział, "że wszyscy ludzie powinni żałować, zwrócić się do Boga, i dzieło przystało pokuty." Można zauważyć, Paweł, nie wspomina nic o "Bóg sprawi, że bogate !!!!" jako kluczowy element do przesłania Ewangelii. Dlatego, nie wystarczy zwrócić uwagę na "nawrócenie" części prawdą Ewangelii, a przez włączenie ich do wiadomości "bawełnę-candy" diety słodki puch, tak zwane "kaznodzieje dobrobytu" (takich jak Copeland) mają błądził gdzieś w herezję. Ponownie, przeczytaj REAL Ewangelii i widać lepiej, co mówię.

W odniesieniu do greckiej i hebrajskiej znaczenia słowa "zbawienie" i "zbawienie", jesteś częściowo prawidłowe (tj. w zakresie prawidłowego ich znaczenie, ale nie w odniesieniu do ich stosowania). Można oczywiście zwrócić uwagę na fakt, że słowa te oznaczają "pełne zbawienie, nawet z choroby i ubóstwa" (co prawda), zwłaszcza, kiedy ludzie nauki, którzy są już chrześcijanami. Jednakże, z niewierzącymi, kaznodzieją powinna utrzymać Ewangelii, prezentacji kontekście "po żałować, zwrócić się do Boga, i dzieło godny nawrócenia, to tylko niektóre z korzyści można się spodziewać, a także ....". Peter to zrobił w swojej prezentacji Ewangelii w Dz 2:14-46 , na przykład. Tak, aby zilustrować z metaforą:

"Deser" ma się po głównych "mączki" prawdziwego rdzeń ewangelicznego orędzia.

Ponownie przeczytać Dzieje Apostolskie i porównać to, co głosił wierzących pierwotnie z tych ludzi co propagują dziś, a znajdziesz tam jest istotna różnica. Jeśli chcesz się połączyć, to "doktryna" (jak to jest błędny), że jest jedna rzecz. To nazwać "Ewangelii" to coś zupełnie innego. , Aby połączyć się oszukani, głosząc "dobrobytu", Copeland i jego współpracownicy "formą Ewangelii" jest tak samo jak herezja cokolwiek innego, do którego odnosił się Paweł w Ga rozdział 1 , gdy powiedział, że takie flaki, "nie jest Ewangelią" i że ludzie będą "przeklętego" za stwierdzenie, że jest. W związku z tym jest jednym z grzechów, za które wzywam do nawrócenia Copeland (I naprawdę nie chcesz tego faceta iść do piekła, i jestem pewny, że zgadzasz się).

"Dobrobyt" jako doktryna:

Do nauczania dobrobytu skierowane do wiernych biblijnych (nie nazywając ją "Ewangelii" wiadomość per se, ale po prostu doktryna dla chrześcijan, aby dowiedzieć się i stosuje w życiu), to również wymaga odpowiedniego włączenie nauczania o posłuszeństwo Bogu , ciężkiej pracy, poświęcenia, dyscypliny, inwestycje, oszczędności pieniężne teologii, ekonomii, jak "przetrwać trudności, jako dobry żołnierz Chrystusa Jezusa" ( 2 Tymoteusza 2:03 ), itd.

Tzw "nauczyciele dobrobytu" nie udało marnie do tego, co było jednym z głównych punktów Kenneth Hagin się, gdy On je gromił lat temu sam się zbyt ekstremalne w ich nauczaniu. (Znowu, zobacz artykuł Hagin na KennethCopelandBlog.com wzmiankowanej powyżej stronie internetowej.) Tak więc ich błędne nauczanie jest zbyt odizolowany nawet od niektórych innych związanych z nauczaniem Biblii na temat zarabiania pieniędzy, nie mówiąc już od tematów związanych z właściwego Christian służby dla Pana.

Ponieważ wspomniane doktryny dając w Zapytaj komentarz Rich, pozwól mi również, że doktryna jest tylko jedna część pism bloków do biblijnej dobrobytu. Ponadto takie doktryny, które mają być biblijny, to z konieczności obejmować dając biednym, dając lokalnym ministerstw, a nawet dając do innych wierzących w potrzebie, które doktrynalne aspekty są zazwyczaj ignorowane przez Copeland i jego przyjaciół. (Częściej tylko podkreślić, dając im i / lub innych na ich kumpel-group-co zdarza się coś innego Rev Kenneth E. Hagin starał się o ich poprawiania).

Jednak nawet, gdy jest właściwie nauczane w pełen zakres jego stosowania, doktryna daje z pewnością nie jest najbardziej "całe enchilada" w celu uzyskania biblijnych dobrobytu, jak te błędne ministrów często prowadzić innych do wiary. Jest tylko więcej niż tylko to.

Wiele dodatkowych elementów biblijnych uzyskania materialnego dobrobytu (zwłaszcza tych pragmatycznych) można znaleźć w blogu o mojej posługi w RichVermillion.com . (I nie pytać mi dać nawet "Dime" za to, że się te nauki są dostępne).

Jeszcze raz, mocno wierzę, że Bóg chce, żeby jego dzieci, by dobrze materialnie. Jestem tylko Biblii zrównoważony w moim rozumieniu, jak, dlaczego i kiedy, to on wybrać finansowo wzbogacić Jego dzieci.

Załóżmy, że nazwa "Spirit":

W odniesieniu do pytania: "Jeżeli Duch Święty we mnie świadczy to, co ci faceci mówią, według Pisma, to co jest problem?" Pozwól mi być proste, Bro: Duch Święty nie będzie sam sobie zaprzecza. Nigdy nie zgadza się ze Słowem Bożym Napisał poprzez apostołów i proroków (por. 1 J 5:6-8 na przykład). Tak więc, co jest "świadectwo" do Państwa w sprawie błędnego nauczania tych ministrów nie jest Duch Święty.

Bro, wszyscy musimy rozwijać przede wszystkim solidnego rozumienia Pisma Świętego i to, co sędzia przez Słowo Boże, a nie tylko tym, jak "czujemy" lub na "świadkiem" czujemy, mamy o tym. Musimy ocenić, co właściwie przez Słowo, a potem "wewnętrzne świadectwo" drugiego. Osobiście uważam, że to tylko emocje zgadzając się z tego, co nauczają, tak jak dziecko emocje zgadzają się, że powinien jeść słodycze w zastępstwie regularnych posiłków. To cielesne myśli, mój brat.

counterfeit manifestations by demons . Do podjęcia dyskusji na jeszcze wyższy poziom: Let's pamiętać, że Kościół w Piśmie z najbardziej przejawy Ducha Bożego (kościół w Koryncie) jest tym samym kościele, który najbardziej fałszywe przejawy przez demony. Paweł musiał wyjaśnić, faktycznie do nich: "Dlatego też do wiadomości, że nikt pod natchnieniem Ducha Bożego, mówi, że Jezus jest przeklęty", i nikt nie może powiedzieć: "Jezus jest Panem, tylko przez Ducha Świętego. "( 1 Koryntian 12:03, nasb ) To, niestety, jest stan kościoła Charasmatic w USA w ogóle: Too wciągnąć w "manifestacji", a co niektórzy "ducha", mówi się, że wystarczy wiedzieć, poczucie różnicy między Boga Ducha Świętego i demoniczne manifestacje. Ten nieszczęsny fakt, w połączeniu z kościoła USA tendencja, by hołdować ich "kaznodzieje sławna" (który jest w dobrej wierze bałwochwalstwa, i obrzydliwością przed Bogiem) jest, dlaczego tak wielu "owce" są prowadzone przez bezpańskie "wilki" dzisiaj.

Brak jest kościół Charasmatic w ogóle jest taki sam, mieli w Koryncie: brak dobrej teologii, a zamiłowanie do Słowa Bożego równej lub wyższej niż ich pasja duchowe przejawy. Brak ten opuścił Corinthians podatne na oszustwa i błędów, i nadal jest głównym powodem "mania Charis" dziś w Kościele (np. niebiblijne nauki i błędów, w połączeniu z demonicznych wpływów). Musimy firmy biblijne podstawy do budowania naszego duchowego "domki" na, a Kościół musi zatrzymać opierając się na "piasek". Jezus powiedział, że "rock", na której można budować naszej fundacji jest nie kto inny jak Word Boga samego (por. Mt 7:24-28 i Łukasza 6:47-49 ).

Wniosek:

Podsumowując, Bro, nie jestem anty-dobrobytu, ale jestem zdecydowanie anty-anty-błędów i herezji. Aby zrozumieć mojego stanowiska na ten temat lepiej, to należy najpierw zbadać inne moje pisma. W tym czasie, zapomnieć, co swoje emocje lub "świadkiem" jest informacją o nauce Copeland i jego przyjaciół (czy kogokolwiek innego, o to chodzi) i uziemiony się na Słowo Boże . Słowa, w całym jego kontekście, jest jedynym pomiaru kij mamy zaufanie przy mierzeniu obowiązywania doktryny. , because they are all mutually dependent upon one another . Ponadto, wszystkie tematy doktryny muszą być dokładnie zbadana w świetle innych doktryn biblijnych, ponieważ wszystkie one są wzajemnie zależne od siebie.

Wreszcie, dziękujemy za udział w Zapytaj Rich strony, a rzecznicy swoje obawy / pytania. Mam nadzieję, że odpowiedział im odpowiednio w skrócie tutaj, zwłaszcza w kontekście moich innych stanowisk odwołuje. Mam nadzieję, że dałem wam wiele do "gryzienia" i że, w wyniku czytania mojej odpowiedzi, to dokonać ponownej oceny własnej chodzić z Panem i teologii, a następnie naciśnij przycisk, aby iść za Jezusem poprzez zrównoważone życie duchowe mocno opiera się na Słowie Bożym.

Nie krępuj się pisać kolejny komentarz do tego posta, jeśli się następujące pytanie. , Które pozwolą nam na otwartym wątku dyskusji na ten temat tutaj, i to zezwolenie w innych do swoich własnych myśli, jak również.

Błogosławieństwa dla ciebie i twoje, jak iść za Jezusem i Jego Słowa, ze zrównoważonym zrozumienia i z całego serca.

Zawsze w Jezusa,

-Rich Vermillion

Hyper-pieniężnej inflacja jest już w toku

Powiedziałbym, że (niestety) większość światowej opinii publicznej USA i jest rażąco zna charakter i niebezpieczeństwach "hiperinflacji" w momencie jej wystąpienia. Co gorsza, w większości nie mają pojęcia o jego przyczyny. Jest to niebezpieczna fakt, i pozwól mi chwilę wyjaśnić co to jest, dlaczego jest to niebezpieczne, niezgodne z prawem, a więc niebiblijne, jednocześnie korzystając zarówno bardzo niepokojące wykres i wideo HTML w tym procesie. To ja Ci link do kilku istotnych środków, które daje dużą obraz "tego, co nie tylko będzie się działo ... ale to, co jest już w toku w zakresie polityki pieniężnej USA i system gospodarki światowej.

Termin:

Po pierwsze, hiperinflacja (pojęcie to nie zawsze potrzebny jest łącznik, i tu jest nie zawierała) jest określony przez Dictionary.com , w części, jak:

Bardzo wysoki poziom inflacji, które najczęściej powoduje rozpad systemu monetarnego, gromadzenia towarów i trudności w osiąganiu wzrostu gospodarczego rzeczywistym. Klasycznym przykładem hiperinflacji doszło w Niemczech w 1920 roku. Hiperinflacji, które mają tendencję, by zmotywować ludzi do posiadania dóbr realnych, niekorzystnie wpływa na ceny bezpieczeństwa.

Jednakże na podstawie powyższej definicji, jeśli porozumienia, jest bardzo mylące. results of monetary hyperinflation and not its true cause . Koncentruje się bardziej na filcu lub skutki postrzegane wyniki pieniężnej hiperinflacji, a nie jego prawdziwą przyczynę. Tej wspólnej "definicji" podkreśla Nagły wybuch cen towarów i usług jako waluty załamuje wartości. Jednak lepiej byłoby określenie:

Hiperinflacji: masowe inflacji (wzrost) dostaw (Ilość) waluty przez bank centralny lub rząd, który poniża jednostkę wartości na waluty.

of money in circulation to such a degree, that supply/demand dynamics debase (devalue) each unit of the currency at a hyper- de flationary pace. Lub innymi słowy, hiperinflacji podaży pieniądza jest "włączenie maszyn drukarskich", a zwiększenie ilości pieniądza w obiegu do tego stopnia, że dostawy / deprecjonować dynamiki popytu (niedocenianie) każda jednostka waluty w hiper-de flationary tempie. Więcej pieniędzy w obiegu, tym mniej pieniędzy, każda jednostka jest warta.

Ostatecznych skutków hiperinflacji podaży pieniądza na rynku jest to, że zaczynam sobie uświadamiać powodzi waluty, a następnie dostosować swoje ceny. To w końcu prowadzi do hiperinflacji cen którym "ceny ulicy" może nawet dwu-i trzyosobowe for goods and services in the marketplace. (Lub więcej) w ciągu jednego dnia dla towarów i usług na rynku. - Rich

Bizzare jak w powyższej sytuacji może brzmieć dla przeciętnego człowieka nie znają historii monetarnej, faktem jest, że właśnie na okoliczności, działo się wiele razy w ciągu XX wieku zlokalizowanych w obszarach, w każdej ważniejszej części świata (Europa, Azja, Ameryka, itp.). Jest nawet miejsce TERAZ w miejscach świata jak Zimbabwe. (Dam wam kilka linków w chwili podać kilka przykładów.)

Niemniej jednak faktem jest, że hiperinflacja nigdy nie nastąpiło, zanim w skali globalnej, ale to jest temat do tego, a proces już się rozpoczął.

Broken ustawy:

Biblia, oczywiście, potępia takie dewaluacji podaży pieniądza, gdyż powoduje ogromne szkody dla jednostek i społeczeństwa jako całości:

Nie będziesz miał w torbie prawdziwych i fałszywych wag, duży i mały. (Księga Powtórzonego Prawa 25:13, AMP)

Różnych wag są obrzydliwością dla Pana, i nieuczciwi wagi nie są dobre. (Księga Przysłów 20:23, NKJV)

Tych, którzy za pomocą tej praktyki są "fałszywe wagi", jak wykonują swoje zbrodnie. Ja nazywam te rzeczy "przestępstwa", ponieważ są one z naruszeniem prawa Bożego, jak również wszystkie ziemskie moralne, "naturalny", i prawo powszechne. W Stanach Zjednoczonych, ale także z naruszeniem konstytucji Stanów Zjednoczonych, który jest "najwyższym prawem ziemi", co przestępstwo "konstytucyjnego proporcje" w tej jurysdykcji.

Oświadczam, że stosują "false wagi", ponieważ ci, którzy mogą wykorzystywać nowe ceny FIRST (tj. prowadzenie przysłowiowy "prasy drukarskie") mogą wykorzystywać pieniędzy na wartości DZIŚ. Tych, którzy są w dalszej części linii znaleźć pieniądze już upodlony jako rynek dostosowane do wzrostu podaży pieniądza, a tym samym wartość niższą wartość jednostkową. Księga Powtórzonego Prawa jest więc edykt powyżej jest wyraźnie łamane w tym jeden z "worek" jest "niezrównoważona" skale przysłowiowy. Jest "jedną dużą wagę" do pieniędzy, gdy drukowane nowych dolarów, a jedną "małą wagę" do wartości dolara raz robi się w ich ręce z resztą społeczeństwa.

Kim są ci przestępcy? Cóż, można odpowiedzieć, że z pytaniem: Kto decyduje o podaży pieniądza? Ogólnie, banków centralnych w sojuszu z rządem. W Stanach Zjednoczonych, która byłaby Rezerwy Federalnej (co jest naprawdę prywatna instytucja , a nie więcej strony rządu niż przedsiębiorstwo żeglugowe Federal Express) i USA rząd federalny. Tak to kto ponosi winę za wynikające z tego hiperinflacja cen kiedy rynek reaguje? Tego samego przestępcy, która spowodowała pieniężnej hiperinflacji dostaw.

Co do tych przestępców, jednak jest próbą przekazania winy off na "wolnym rynku" i "sił poza ich kontrolą." Oni nawet nie próbują przekonywać, że starają się "złagodzić kryzys" i przedstawiają się jako przysłowiowy "rycerzy w zbroi świecą" jazda dalej, aby zabić smoka inflacji. "jednak przeciwny jest rzeczywiście prawdą, że przyczyną problemu hiperinflacji, a jej straszne wyniki na społeczeństwo. Więc ich propaganda jest nie więcej niż "dym i lustra", które mają kamuflaż ich winie i egoistycznych porządkiem obrad. W rzeczywistości jest to, że kiedyś "fałszywych wag" dla własnych korzyści i korzyści, i zniszczone waluty amerykańskiej w tym procesie.

Większość ludzi nie zdaje sobie sprawy, jak poważne jest to rzeczywiście problem. Jeżeli jednak koszty milionów dolarów lub więcej na jeden bochenek chleba (jak to miało miejsce w Republice Weimarskiej w 1923 roku, a nie w Zimbabwe dzisiaj) będą realizować tylko zbyt późno, co tragiczny wpływ na społeczeństwo chciwość tych winowajców spowodował. Ale nie bój się, przyjacielu, jesteś teraz właściwie uprzedzony i że to pierwszy krok do stania się odpowiednio przygotować ... więc proszę kontynuować czytanie ...

Wagi szczery:

W rzeczywistości: W prawdziwie wolnym rynku, przy prawidłowej i uczciwy "miary i wagi" i towarowo-pieniężnej systemu (tj. fizycznego złota, srebra, metali półszlachetnych, takich jak miedź i / lub ceny papieru do 100% wypłacanych ze złota i srebra) hiperinflacji nie dało się w ogóle:

• Ograniczenie podaży pieniądza tylko PURE ilości złota, srebra i półszlachetnych ceny metalu w obiegu, który zapobiega pieniężnej hiperinflacji. (Uwaga: czysta zawartość towaru w monety będą musiały być dokładnie oznaczone, chronionych pod groźbą kary i prawa, jak również. przeciwnym wypadku rząd mógłby poniżyć waluty poniżający monet z metali baser i zmniejszenie ich czystość, jak starożytne rząd Roman lubi robić. Najlepiej jednak zachować monet prywatnego przemysłu i uzyskać obecnie rząd pieniądze-biznesu całkowicie, z wyjątkiem zapewnienia dokładności roszczeń czystości prywatne mennice i bankierów kruszcu.) Takie ograniczenia zapobiec rząd i bank centralny "włączenie maszyny drukarskie" i oversupplying systemu monetarnego. Jeżeli towar w pełni zabezpieczone i wypłacanych pieniędzy papierowych jest również (np. złota lub srebra "standard" system walutowy), a następnie drukowanie "papier" jest ograniczona przez ilość towaru w magazynie jego kopię (tak długo, jak egzekwowania prawa, oczywiście).
• Egzekwowania przepisów "uczciwego miar i wag" w całym społeczeństwem zapobiegających nadużyciom finansowym, a tym samym dalszego ochrony rynków z działalności przestępczej, która może powodować niedobory i / lub presji inflacyjnej. L to będzie zawierać wymóg, w 100% rezerw banku dla klienta depozytów, bo banki sztucznie nawet towarowo-pieniężnej wspierane przez system frakcyjnej rezerwy bankowej. Jeśli wymagają banki zachować 100% ich składu pieniędzy w skarbcu (od "depozyt na żądanie" zawsze jest jeszcze własnością składu), to banki nie mogą rozwinąć skuteczne systemu monetarnego dzięki "powiernicze media" w formie kredyty bankowe, czeki, i "cyfrowego" transakcji.

(Uwaga: Aby dowiedzieć się więcej o frakcyjnej rezerwy bankowej może zwiększyć podaż pieniądza, niezależnie od działań rządów i banków centralnych, ściągnij ten rozdział z de Soto wspaniałe książki Jesus Huerta, Money, Bank Credit, i cykli gospodarczych. całej książki jest dostępne zarówno w języku angielskim i hiszpańskim w www.jesushuertadesoto.com . W angielskiej wersji, kliknij przycisk "libros" w menu po lewej stronie, a następnie "pieniędzy ...", gdy pojawia się podmenu. Wszystkie rozdziały są następnie wystawione dla poszczególnych pobrania w formacie PDF).

Tak w rzeczywistości, choć przechodzą "prawa" do próby "legalizacji" niebiblijne i ich niemoralne działania, działania rządu i banków centralnych z naruszeniem zarówno prawa Boga i wszystkich zdrowych zasadach prawnych. (Uwaga: W zasadzie to wszystkich banków w ogóle z powodu praktyk ekspansji kredytowej, ale większość banków w społeczeństwie, nie uświadamiają sobie nielegalne i niemoralne charakter ich codziennych czynności). Zbrodniarzy "druku pieniądza" i wydać je na obecnym rynku wartości, a tym samym zwiększenie pieniędzy w obiegu, co powoduje, że wartość jednostki pieniężnej w celu zmniejszenia do wszystkich innych członków społeczeństwa. W związku z tym banki i rząd zysku kosztem wszystkich "niższe łańcucha żywnościowego" w systemie finansowym i społeczeństwa jako całości. W ten sposób możemy zawierać:

Hyperinflation is a crime propagated upon a nation by its government and bankers (especially the bankers of the central bank), and NOT an accidental or unavoidable consequence of “market forces” as they would have you believe.

Further, the most concerning fact concerning hyperinflation is this: It has already begun in the United States of America, and will soon spread throughout the world. Do you doubt that? Let's look at the facts…

A Crime in Progress:

Remember in the above definition that hyperinflation begins FIRST in the monetary supply , then when the markets realize what is going on and confidence in the currency erodes, it begins to manifest SECOND in the marketplace by a rapid increase in the prices of goods and services. With that in mind, look at the following chart produced by the St. Louis Federal Reserve concerning the Adjusted Monetary Base (ie supply):

Notice the near-prefect vertical line to the far right of the graph. That is the explosion in the money supply since only September, 2008—which exceeds anything that has ever been done in the history of the FED since its inception back in 1913. Also, do you notice any similarity between the above monetary-supply chart and the following monetary-supply chart from the most infamous hyperinflation of the Twentieth Century— Weimar Germany in the 1920s ?

To put the above chart into an understandable light, by late 1923 it took 200 B ILLION (with a “B”) German marks to buy a single loaf of bread at the bakery.

Now with the above two charts clearly in mind (the first of which I have also included in the Financial Column to the far right on every page of RichVermillion.com ), check out Glenn Beck's excellent explanation within the following short FoxNews video (using an animated version of this same FED chart):

____

____

So as Glenn explained above, this is a MAJOR issue of concern. Since the monetary supply has ALREADY begun to hyperinflate, it is only a matter of time before the markets loose confidence in the US dollar and prices begin to hyperinflate as well. I also agree with Glenn Beck that hyperinflation may yet manifest within the marketplace's prices THIS YEAR in 2009, but I would be shocked if it did not begin to happen at least by the 1st or 2nd quarter of 2010.

This is a short-fuse time-bomb ticking within the US and global economy…and about to explode. Moreover, the US government and Federal Reserve (and the individuals running both) are FULLY to blame.

More Research:

Now for more clarity regarding this topic, I recommend the following links where you can find additional data:

• Modern Hyperinflation in Zimbabwe (A very sobering BBC overview from July, 2007. Worse yet, the country's  alarming economic numbers are actually more extreme today than when this article explained them.)
• The Nightmare German Inflation (An excellent summary of the 1923 German hyperinflation experience in Weimar Germany. Most importantly, it tells you who PROFITED and WHY during that time.)
• Mises.org art s (lista różne artykuły dostępne na Ludwig von Mises Institute strony związane z tym tematem.)
• Moje własne artykuły RichVermillion.com dotyczące ceny i czasu załamania gospodarczego USA

Bądź na bieżąco, powoływać się również z danych w skrajnej prawej kolumnie finansowego znaleźć na każdej stronie tego bloga, i nie bój się. Rather, keep in mind the following VERY important truth:

This is an economic time for the properly informed and positioned to PROFIT beyond their wildest imaginations, while those who stumble forward without taking these issues to heart will suffer tremendously.

The Bible puts it this way:

A prudent man sees the evil and hides himself, but the simple pass on and are punished [with suffering]. (Proverbs 22:3, AMP)

Kluczem jest, aby te rzeczy poważnie, wolę Twoją należytej staranności, i dostać w stanie zysku, a nie cierpieć.

Jeszcze raz: Hiperinflacja w Stanach Zjednoczonych rozpoczęła już w monetarnych podaży, a wkrótce rozpocznie się cen na rynku. Od amerykańskiego dolara "światowej waluty rezerwowej" i siedzi jak zastrzega poparcie większości innych walut papieru na świecie, hiperinflacji, które mogą się szybko rozprzestrzeniać na skalę światową. Złoto i srebro jest najlepszym i najbezpieczniejszym sposobem ochrony Państwa oszczędności i przygotowuje się do gospodarczego tsunami , które wkrótce ma przyjść.

Bądź na bieżąco, i przygotować się.

Ostatecznie, proszę wysłać swoje uwagi poniżej.

W Jezusa,

Once in a while, you run across an article on the web that just “sings.” On February 4th, 2009, Señor Hugo Salinas Price wrote such a piece (in English) about gold and its significance in international trade, economics, and the history behind the current US economy meltdown. It is simple, concise, and very accurate. Please avail yourself of the following reposted article, and I will have additional comments of my own further below.

If you have not already read them, be sure to visit my own posts listed at the bottom of this page for additional insights from complimentary but different angles. Also, please widen your browser window to see the Financial Column to the far right of this web page for additional data and resources.

Gold: the protector and creator of jobs , by Hugo Salinas Price

Some readers may ask themselves, “What has gold to do with protecting jobs? Gold hoarders are certainly not creating jobs, and hoarding more gold will not help at all.”

Gold has everything to do with the loss of jobs in the US, and gold has everything to do with recovering jobs for the US economy.

Let me go back to the 1960s. During those years, the US and the world were on a gold-and-dollar Standard.

Back in the '60s, countries were very careful about maintaining a constant monetary balance between their exports and their imports. They all wanted to be in a situation where they would export more than they imported, so that they would have increasing balances of gold or dollars in their Treasuries.

To state this more correctly, they all wanted to export more than they imported, except the United States.

The US didn't care very much about maintaining a balance between exports and imports, because the US was able to pay for its deficit in trade (more imports than exports) by simply sending more dollars overseas.

Many economists warned about this trend, which was accompanied by a constant loss of gold during those years; some countries, notably France, refused to hold more and more dollars. The French asked for their gold — at $35 an ounce — and this caused great disgust in Washington and New York.

Nothing was done to stop the trend. In 1971, Henry Hazlitt, a good conservative economist, warned that the dollar would have to be devalued — that it would be necessary to raise the number of dollars which would be needed to obtain an ounce of gold — some months before the dam broke and the US was faced with the need to devalue, because the US stock of gold had become much too small.

What Mr. Hazlitt never imagined, was that instead of devaluing — which was the advice of economist Paul Samuelson, Nobel Prize winner, published the week before August 15, 1971 — Nixon followed the advice of Milton Friedman and simply “closed the gold window.” The US would henceforth not deliver any gold, at any price, to any foreign Central Bank who might wish to invoke the right to redeem its dollars for gold, according to the Bretton Woods Agreement of 1944.

Since that date, all world trade — or the better part of it — is carried on in dollars which are nothing more than fiat money. Since the rest of the world's currencies were tied to gold through the dollar, all the currencies of the world also became fiat money — fictitious money, backed by nothing. That includes the Euro, of course.

What happened after that fateful date has overturned all order and harmony in economic relationships between the nations of the world.

Countries around the world began to accumulate more and more dollars as credit expansion in the US went forward, implacably. Central Banks had to accumulate these dollars in their Reserves, whether they wanted to or not. (Not having sufficient dollars would force other countries to devalue and destroy savings. The US cannot run out of dollars, it manufactures them.)

With no loss of gold to restrain the US and force it to stop expanding credit, US imports surged and exports waned. The monetary difference was “paid” in dollars.

Free trade was extolled by the US; every country that wanted to be in the good graces of the US had to bow to “free trade.”

Free trade is a good thing — but not for a country that is providing the world's fiat money. This “free trade” was called “globalization,” meaning that the US could, and did, buy everything it wanted in the world, in any amount, at any time, by simply paying dollars for it.

There was no restraint to US credit expansion. It was a lovely time to be young and an American.

However, free trade means you buy where it's cheapest, and the cheapest place to buy, in recent decades, was China, southeast Asia, and India; the oil required to fuel the US economy was cheap and bought with dollars which it cost nothing to produce.

Thousands upon thousands of products and floods of oil came across the oceans to the US, and to Europe, which began to pay in euros for some of its imports — euros that also cost nothing to produce.

producentów z USA, naprzeciwko tej konkurencji z Azji, postanowił przenieść swoje fabryki do Azji, zamiast czekania na niektórych upadłości przez konkurencyjny w stosunku do znacznie niższych kosztach produkcji.

To było jak USA była de-uprzemysłowionych.

To się stało, bo złoto było zniesione ograniczenia ekspansji kredytowej i kreacji pieniądza.

Nixon nie miał poszedł złoto w 1971 roku Chiny miały pokolenia do tworzenia bazy przemysłowej. Byłoby to konieczne dla Chin do akumulacji kapitału powoli, bo jej eksportu do Stanów Zjednoczonych byłaby ograniczona przez konieczność USA opłacić złotem na kwotę, o którą chińskiego eksportu przekroczyła przywozu z USA.

Chiński musiałby kupić nawet z USA, ponieważ sprzedawane do USA, a ponieważ były one tak strasznie biedni, nie było zbyt wiele mogli kupić z USA.

Ich wzrost byłby wolniejszy, ale nie teraz stoi ponad 20 mln bezrobotnych, a ich rynki wyschnie.

The US would never have allowed China to drain US gold from the Treasury by selling more to the US, than the US sold to China. But since payment was in fiat dollars and not in gold, the destructive effect of huge Chinese imports was not considered important by policy makers. And so the US sailed into unemployment and had a great time doing it. Only now that the party is over are the grim facts visible: no jobs! Manufacturing is decimated.

The fiat dollar — unanchored to gold — was the greatest strategic gift that the US could have made to China. Now, they have a huge industrial base and the US has oh, so little!

The damage is done. How to recover the industrial base of the US? Not by slogans such as “buy American,” nor by protectionism.

What is required is to recover economic balance between the nations of the world so that they all can balance their exports with their imports. This is not done by protectionism, a false remedy to joblessness.

The world needs to return to gold as the international means of payment. All imbalances must be paid, monthly, in gold. No fiat money “payment” allowed!

If a nation does not have gold to export, it must do without or manufacture what it needs itself: There you have the clue to restoring jobs in the US and in Europe. This is not “nationalism”; it is simply good economics.

The US has to limit its imports drastically, not by protectionism and tariffs, but by returning to the gold standard. Jobs will mushroom in the US beyond what anyone can dream as soon as its market must buy locally or not buy at all for thousands upon thousands of articles. A return to gold will achieve that aim very quickly, to be sure.

The gold standard is the friend and protector of the worker and of the investor, as well as the basis for harmonious relations between the nations of the world.

And by the way, the current financial disaster in the US is directly attributable to Nixon's decision to “close the gold window,” because a monetary system based on gold is an obstacle to the criminal credit expansion perpetrated by the bankers. Gold-based money puts shackles on bankers, forcing them to be careful. A fiat money system enables financial criminality — it's as effective in restraining criminality in finance as tying up a dog with a string of sausages.

As you can readily see after having read the above article,  Señor Hugo Salinas Price has done us all a tremendous favor in writing such a marvelous and simple piece. Now, please consider reading the following articles here on RichVermillion.com as well in order to expand your thinking in these areas further. Take special note also of the “to do” articles that help you to determine your own strategy for preparing for the inevitable and imminent US economic collapse:

THERE IS A MYSTERIOUS DYNAMIC at work in Western gold and silver markets in that “paper” precious metals seem at times to be falling in price, while “street” prices for in-your-hand bullion is constantly rising. The real fact of the matter is that the “spot” prices reported on the Internet and elsewhere are regarding bullion futures contracts , and not actual physical gold and silver. Those prices do NOT include additional costs like fabrication and delivery… and they certainly do NOT contain the “premiums” being charged on the street for the real thing .

The people on the commodities exchanges (from where we get “spot” pricing of gold and silver) are simply trading paper around. Consequently, these figures are misleading—especially with Western central banks manipulating the markets (with the aid of their cohorts) in order to prop up their worthless currencies. Even though an increasing number of investors are requiring physical delivery of the bullion their “paper” contracts promise , the exchange rates still reflect fictional pricing dynamics at best.

In the Western nations: On the “street” there are shortages of both gold and silver bullion in any form, but especially coins, ingots, and small bars .

Therefore, dealers in the West are finding that they have FORTY buyers for every ONE seller who is willing to part with their precious metals in exchange for declining paper currencies (see the article further below).

Meanwhile, in other parts of the world like the Orient and Middle East, gold is readily available in shops. As the following picture (sent me by one of my friends) of a “gold souk” in Dubai clearly shows, the “on the street shortages” are a Western phenomena alone as the Western economies collapse themselves from their own debt weights :

Gotta Have It

So with the shortages here in the Western nations as people scramble to acquire real money in the form of gold and silver, the dealers are tacking higher and higher premiums on the REAL gold and silver to reflect the true supply/demand dynamics they see every day in their shops—even while the “paper” traders play games within the commodities markets.

But remember: When the dollar and Western economies collapse , “paper” bullion with be worth no more than what their then-undeliverable promises are printed on.

The only real protection against the Economic Tsunami that is to come is physical gold and silver in hand. Period . Those wise enough to realize the biblical and historical truth of that statement will well-position themselves to be recipients of the coming wealth transfer. Those that do NOT, will find themselves suffering the loss that the wise then inherit. ( Hint : Proverbs recommends you be counted among the wise, and not among the foolish who inherit destruction .)

Moreover: To confirm what I have stated above and in other articles, consider the data revealed in the following article excerpt about what is happening today in the gold and silver markets. I will pick up below it with my final comments and recommendations:

The New Gold Rush: Supply of Coins Tight at Tucson Stores

By Dan Sorenson
Arizona Daily Star, Tucson
Sunday, November 2, 2008

http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/business/265218.php

The price of futures contracts for gold surged to more than $1,000 per ounce earlier this year, then dropped back before surging again as the financial crisis rocked stock markets in September. Then the price of gold futures started slipping again.

In October, Bloomberg News reported, the price dropped 18 percent, the most it has in a single month since 1980. Gold for December delivery closed at $718.20 an ounce Friday on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Your college Econ 101 course may not help you understand the latest gold coin rush.

Banks have been on wobbly knees, the stock market has been plunging, and 401(k)s are as deflated and sad as four-day-old party balloons.

But, oddly, gold has been both falling in price and in short supply for those looking for a safe haven during the stock market storm. Some Tucson dealers say gold coins are scarce at best, even as gold—and silver—prices are falling.

There is even more complexity within that scenario, local dealers say.

Retail gold coins generally sell for the current price of the metal they contain, plus a “premium”—the dealer's fee—on each coin. Of late, the premiums have risen significantly to reflect the shortage of supply of some denominations, the dealers say.

“I get 10 to 20 calls a day, 'Do you have any gold or silver?' We don't have any, and we can't get any,” said Peter Spooner, a coin expert at American Stamp & Coin, 7225 N. Oracle Road.

“There are people who are selling their stocks to get into gold and silver because they fear we are going into a tremendous depression,” said Spooner. Yet, he noted, the “price of paper (futures contract) gold is dropping while the price of owning actual hold-in-my-hand gold is going up” when the seller's premium is added.

Historically, it would be cheaper to buy an ounce of gold in one coin than to buy an ounce as four quarter-ounce coins. But the price for an ounce of gold is actually cheaper if you buy it as four quarter-ounce coins than in a single 1-ounce coin—if you could find one, said Brett Sadovnick, owner of Tucson Coin & Autograph, 6470 N. Oracle Road.

In this case, a classical supply-and-demand situation is at work: There's more demand for the 1-ounce coins than the quarter-ounce and other smaller coins, so it's driven up the price of the 1-ounce coins.

Buyers Might Be Newcomers

Sadovnick isn't quite sure why buyers are fixated on the 1-ounce coins. Gold is gold, purity being equal.

It could be that the buyers driving the demand for the 1-ounce American Eagle coins are newcomers fleeing the wild uncertainty of the stock market for the relative calm of the world's longtime favorite precious metal. Maybe they feel better about owning the hefty full-ounce American Eagle, rather than a handful of smaller gold coins—half-, quarter-, or tenth-ounce — that weigh just as much. Sadovnick isn't sure.

“I've been a coin dealer in Tucson since 1998, a professional since 1974. I haven't seen a situation quite like this,” said Sadovnick. Not even the crazy precious metals roller-coaster days of early 1980—when gold hit $850 an ounce for one day—compares, Sadovnick said.
And it's not just gold, he said.

“I placed an order a month ago, 1,000 1-ounce silver bars. I paid him spot (the spot price), plus $2.50 an ounce premium,” Sadovnick said. That order might not arrive until January.

“Three months ago I could have bought it from them for the price of silver, plus $1.50 an ounce, and I would have had delivery in a few days.”

Even Jim Ganem, owner of the venerable Arizona Stamp & Coin, 4668 E. Speedway, is baffled.

The shop is the only Tucson dealer mentioned on the US Mint's Web site as dealers of American Eagle coins, and Ganem says he can't get any Eagles, or anything regularly. He said the US Mint sent out a notice saying it isn't making the coins because even they can't get the gold blanks to stamp.

40 Buyers to One Seller

Ganem said hedge funds are dumping billions of dollars worth of gold contracts they hold, driving down the price of gold. But to actually get gold, not just a contract, buyers are having to pay a premium—a higher premium than he can recall in the past.

Some of those contract holders are asking for the gold they represent, instead of just trading in the paper. But that gold is disappearing in an instant on the spot market, said Ganem. He said he gets a few chances a day to buy gold that becomes available, but that it disappears in a matter of minutes.

“Typically,” he said, “we're running 40 buyers to one seller right now coming into the store to purchase. People don't want to be in the stocks, real estate, and they don't trust the banks—three typical havens for large amounts of money. The other one is metal.”

One would think the skidding stock market and real estate decline would be driving up gold and silver prices. And while it did initially, in September, the price of precious-metal futures plunged in October.

An industry expert in Phoenix said the gold market isn't behaving in a traditional manner.

David Henry of Arizona Coin Exchange Inc. in Phoenix is a wholesaler who sells to coin and precious metals retailers. He said most people who buy paper gold, contracts, never physically possess the gold, choosing instead to resell the contracts, hopefully for more than it cost them.

“You can get it, physically, but it's complicated,” Henry said.

Physically possessing gold is an entirely different mechanism, Henry said, something that is done for security—a way to safely hold value, often for a very long time.

Unfortunately, he said, this is an occasion for a “Perfect Storm” scenario.

The price isn't high enough to bring sellers into the front door of coin and precious metal shops, and the main source of new gold, the federal government, can't deliver.
Spooner said the vagaries of the current gold market don't change his view of gold.

“I don't present gold as an investment,” said Spooner. “Buying a half- to 1-ounce piece of gold every month is like insurance… like portfolio insurance. In economic turmoil, it's a flight to safety.”

Decline in Gold Futures

The price of futures contracts for gold surged to more than $1,000 per ounce earlier this year, then dropped back before surging again as the financial crisis rocked stock markets in September. Then the price of gold futures started slipping again.

In October, Bloomberg News reported, the price dropped 18 percent, the most it has in a single month since 1980. Gold for December delivery closed at $718.20 an ounce Friday on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

As you see in the article above, these artificially low prices on the commodities exchanges are merely illusions. So the key is to obtain gold and silver anywhere you can while the prices are relatively low (though dealer premiums are so high) while you still are able to do so. Once the dollar collapses nobody will part with their silver/gold… except when they may be buying up all your worldly possessions in return.

So let me be blunt: Buy gold and silver bullion in any form—but especially coin form— anywhere you can get your hands on it —while you still can. You can move your IRAs and 401(k) offshore outside of the USA and UK into gold and silver (see my note at the bottom of this article about AFE). Even sell your sports gear, Longaberger-basket collection, jet ski—and even a few of your TVs and iPods if you have too—to get liquid with your money, and then buy all the gold and silver you can obtain. And let me add: Do so VERY QUICKLY.

As I have said before in other blog posts, I also highly recommend you take a firm look at Joseph Wealth Systems (JWS) as a reliable supply source for gold bullion coinage. While the dealers in the Western nations (like the ones in the article above) are desperate for precious metals coinage to meet the phenomenal demand, JWS is reporting a fully-fluid coin supply that is still abundant in the face of the increasing demand. Their prices for their gold shekels and quarter shekels are also very competitive with the increasingly high-premium coin prices being found through other dealers (and again, you can actually GET coins!).

Add to this fact that you can become an online gold coin merchant yourself (if you so choose) and you can readily understand how JWS can be a very lucrative source for your gold coin acquisitions. (Note: JWS does not offer silver coins at this time, so you will simply have to get silver anywhere you can find it.)

Visit this blog's JWS Gold Referral page to learn more about Joseph Wealth Systems and to see referral links to various JWS colleague websites for your further investigation. You can also learn therein about The Anglo Far East Company ( AFE —JWS's “older sister-company”) which can help you quickly move your wealth outside of the USA, obtain foreign currencies, and buy BOTH gold and silver bullion for storage in reliable Swiss vaults.

Lastly, I highly recommend you study the information I provided for you in my blog article God's Money and Private Coinage . That article will help you to see both the biblical/historical aspects of owning gold and silver as bona fide REAL money, while also providing you an understanding (through an excerpt from Murray Rothbard wise counsel) in the benefits of owning privately minted coins.

God bless you as you earnestly seek God's Wisdom… and not merely the gold and silver He created.

In Jesus (Yeshua),

- Rich

I FULLY agree with Robert Kiyosaki's assertion that “gold and silver is God's money, because He made it.” This is a biblical fact clear in many places, but is especially interesting to note from the account of original paradise in Genesis chapter 2 :

The LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads. The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. And the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and the onyx stone are there. (verses 8-12, NKJV)

Back then, the gold and precious stones were apparently laying on the surface of the ground and easily obtained. However, after the fall of man the curse came, and Adam was banished from such a highly provisioned state into one in which he had to work with great toil to obtain the things he needed and desired ( Genesis 3 ).

Nevertheless, throughout 5,000 years of recorded human history around the world, gold and silver have both proven to be true and pure money. The labor man invested in their farms and industry could be readily converted to gold, silver, and other coin (such as copper or bronze for smaller transactions), which themselves were made through much labor and toil .

Intrinsic Worth

The metals had to be first found in the earth's crust (which was an effort in and of itself). It then had to be mined, refined, and then fabricated into transactional shapes such as coins and bars. (BTW: Even gold and silver jewelry was (and still is ) considered “money” among the eastern people in the Bible lands and beyond. An earring could be taken off to buy goods or pay for services—see Judges 8:22-28 —and the very same thing happens in various parts of the world today.)

So the high labor-content of gold, the slightly less labor-content of silve r (about 1/12th to 1/15th as much, historically) , and the various lesser-yet labor-content of the baser metal coins, gave them their true intrinsic value for purposes of exchange in 5,000 years of human economies.

So not only did God Himself say that “gold is good” in Genesis; the very nature of the metals (making them appropriate for molding into various shapes and sizes) a nd the labor invested in them , made them perfect for exchanging the product of people's labors (eg grain, manufactured goods, services) for something that would be a reliable storehouse of those labors. Real money has intrinsic value, and thus, is a stable medium of exchange.

Thus, precious metals (and the baser metals) have always been a reliable storehouse of wealth and fruit of righteous labor, and have historically been “inflation proof” when used in a monetary system. Except during times of shortages due to famines or war , prices remained the same for hundreds and even thousands of years … or actually went down over time due to technical advances and increases in efficiencies.

Today, governments want us to be under their patronage, and have sold us “worthless paper” for our labors rather than real and free money. The “labor content” of paper notes is virtually zero in comparison, so there is no longer any intrinsic value to them. Governments convinces people to accept paper instead of gold and silver by first backing them with promises to exchange the paper for gold or silver on demand. This enabled people to carry much lighter paper, and still have the value of the precious metals that backed them, so they went along with the idea.

However, governments were then limited in how much they could print by the amount of precious metals they had in vaults to back the “cash.” This meant that they had to show fiscal responsibility and spend within their means (something governments tend to have a real problem doing). So they then detached from gold and silver standards, and began the inflationary monetary policies we see across the globe currently.

Today, people are so used to the effects of monetary inflation (ie rising prices) that they have come to think that is “normal” and to be expected—even though the USA has experience such inflation only since 1913. But because generations have passed since the true gold standard of 1913 was abandoned (and its subsequent pseudo-type was abandoned in 1971) people have long forgotten the many years of price stability. The idea that something a thousand years ago could cost the same amount today is such a foreign thought that they often cannot even fathom the concept.

But historically, all paper currencies' purchase-power eventually return to their true intrinsic value— somewhere near zero . And now that the world's “paper” monetary schemes and economies are obviously collapsing, people are finally taking the time to study and learn about the only true moneys with intrinsic worth—gold and silver.

Private Coinage

To learn a bit more about the concept of precious metals in the form of private coinage (ie verses government minted coinage, or printed paper) from an economists viewpoint, let me recommend you read the following marvelous article. It was posted today on the Ludwig von Misses Institute's website , and is a short excerpt from Murray M. Rothbard's marvelous book, What Has Government Done to Our Money? (which I myself own). For your convenience, I have posted it again here, and have provided additional related information of value below that.

[This article is excerpted from chapter 7 of What Has Government Done to Our Money? An MP3 audio version of this article, read by Dr. Floy Lilly, is available here .]

The idea of private coinage seems so strange today that it is worth examining carefully. We are used to thinking of coinage as a “necessity of sovereignty.” Yet, after all, we are not wedded to a “royal prerogative,” and it is the American concept that sovereignty rests, not in government, but in the people.

How would private coinage work? In the same way, we have said, as any other business. Each minter would produce whatever size or shape of coin is most pleasing to his customers. The price would be set by the free competition of the market.

The standard objection is that it would be too much trouble to weigh or assay bits of gold at every transaction. But what is there to prevent private minters from stamping the coin and guaranteeing its weight and fineness? Private minters can guarantee a coin at least as well as a government mint. Abraded bits of metal would not be accepted as coin. People would use the coins of those minters with the best reputation for good quality of product. We have seen that this is precisely how the “dollar” became prominent – as a competitive silver coin.

Opponents of private coinage charge that fraud would run rampant. Yet, these same opponents would trust government to provide the coinage. But if government is to be trusted at all, then surely, with private coinage, government could at least be trusted to prevent or punish fraud. It is usually assumed that the prevention or punishment of fraud, theft, or other crimes is the real justification for government. But if government cannot apprehend the criminal when private coinage is relied upon, what hope is there for a reliable coinage when the integrity of the private marketplace operators is discarded in favor of a government monopoly of coinage? If government cannot be trusted to ferret out the occasional villain in the free market in coin, why can government be trusted when it finds itself in a position of total control over money and may debase coin, counterfeit coin, or otherwise with full legal sanction perform as the sole villain in the marketplace? It is surely folly to say that government must socialize all property in order to prevent anyone from stealing property. Yet the reasoning behind abolition of private coinage is the same.

Moreover, all modern business is built on guarantees of standards. The drug store sells an eight-ounce bottle of medicine; the meat packer sells a pound of beef. The buyer expects these guarantees to be accurate, and they are. And think of the thousands upon thousands of specialized, vital industrial products that must meet very narrow standards and specifications. The buyer of a 1/2 inch bolt must get a 1/2 inch bolt and not a mere 3/8 inch.

“It is surely folly to say that government must socialize all property in order to prevent anyone from stealing property. Yet the reasoning behind abolition of private coinage is the same.”

Yet, business has not broken down. Few people suggest that the government must nationalize the machine-tool industry as part of its job of defending standards against fraud. The modern market economy contains an infinite number of intricate exchanges, most depending on definite standards of quantity and quality. But fraud is at a minimum, and that minimum, at least in theory, may be prosecuted. So it would be if there were private coinage. We can be sure that a minter's customers, and his competitors, would be keenly alert to any possible fraud in the weight or fineness of his coins. [1]

Champions of the government's coinage monopoly have claimed that money is different from all other commodities, because “Gresham's Law” proves that “bad money drives out good” from circulation. Hence, the free market cannot be trusted to serve the public in supplying good money.

But this formulation rests on a misinterpretation of Gresham's famous law. The law really says that

money overvalued artificially by government will drive out of circulation artificially undervalued money.

Suppose, for example, there are one-ounce gold coins in circulation. After a few years of wear and tear, let us say that some coins weigh only .9 ounces. Obviously, on the free market, the worn coins would circulate at only 90 percent of the value of the full-bodied coins, and the nominal face value of the former would have to be repudiated. [2] If anything, it will be the “bad” coins that will be driven from the market.

But suppose the government decrees that everyone must treat the worn coins as equal to new, fresh coins, and must accept them equally in payment of debts. What has the government really done? It has imposed price control by coercion on the “exchange rate” between the two types of coin. By insisting on the par ratio when the worn coins should exchange at 10 percent discount, it artificially overvalues the worn coins and undervalues new coins. Consequently, everyone will circulate the worn coins, and hoard or export the new. “Bad money drives out good money,” then, not on the free market, but as the direct result of governmental intervention in the market.

Despite never-ending harassment by governments, making conditions highly precarious, private coins have flourished many times in history. True to the virtual law that all innovations come from free individuals and not the state, the first coins were minted by private individuals and goldsmiths. In fact, when the government first began to monopolize the coinage, the royal coins bore the guarantees of private bankers, whom the public trusted far more, apparently, than they did the government. Privately minted gold coins circulated in California as late as 1848. [3]

Uwagi:

[1] See Herbert Spencer, Social Statics (New York: D. Appleton 1890), p. 438.

[2] To meet the problem of wear-and-tear, private coiners might either set a time limit on their stamped guarantees of weight, or agree to recoin anew, either at the original or at the lower weight. We may note that in the free economy there will not be the compulsory standardization of coins that prevails when government monopolies direct the coinage.

Conant, The Principles of Money and Banking (New York: Harper Bros., 1905), vol. I, 127-32; Lysander Spooner, A Letter to Grover Cleveland (Boston: BR Tucker, 1886), p. 79; and J.

IT IS AMAZING to me how economic news can turn many who claim “prophetic insights” into sudden economic geniuses. I do not mean to sound harsh, but since January, 2008 (and some as recent as October, 2008!) there have been an abundance of “prophesies” concerning economic turmoil and/or collapse in the USA. The only problem is… the collapse began in October, 2007! In other words, they are a bit late with their predictions.

Worse yet, their “counsel” to the “masses” lacks biblical precedent, or even good financial sense.

Prophets-Come-Lately

Compare these not-so-timely “prophetic insights” with the Word of the Lord that came to me back in November, 2006 . At that time, the US stock markets were climbing and there was much euphoria on Wall Street. The DOW would eventually hit its all-time high on October 9th, 2007 at a whopping 14,164.53 on the “financial richter-scale.”

Nevertheless, AT THE VERY SAME TIME those well-invested in the US stock markets were celebrating this new pinnacle, I was on a missions trip to a third-world country… and was explaining to a Christian business leader there that the US dollar and markets were soon to collapse .

Within days of sharing the details of the prophetic word (that I had received the year before) with that brother, the “correction” of the DOW began—and then accelerated. As the following insightful chart from Chartoftheday.com shows, the US stock market performance in the year following was WORSE than even the dismal performance of the stock markets following the collapse of 1929 :

ChartOfTheDay Analysis of the DOW

So while most of the prophets-come-lately were themselves probably enjoying the rise in their offerings back in 2006-2007 due to the climbing investment markets, I was sounding the alarm—and detailing the soon collapse of the US economy and its super-power status. The contrast is clear.

In fact, a friend of mine (who heard that word from me back in 2006) recently commented to me about a so-called “prophesy” regarding the economy that “came out” just this month (October, 2008). Having forwarded it to me, he then noted in the email, ”It is a little like prophesying 9-11 on 9-12.”

Brothers and sisters, the eminent economic collapse has already become quite obvious by now. So be wary of any “words” by such “prophets-come-lately” who actually lack true prophetic insight.

True Insight vs. Wild Imaginations

I realize that some who are giving these “belated words” may be sincere people (and possibly a couple of them are actually true prophets). However, I cannot help but think that at least some of them are counted among the type of prophets described in Ezekiel 13 :

The word of the LORD came to me: “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now prophesying. Say to those who prophesy out of their own imagination : 'Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit [ie not the Holy Spirit] and have seen nothing ! (NIV)

Worse yet , many (and actually all that I have seen so far) who have “belatedly prophesied” about the collapse now already in-progress are overly - spiritualizing their counsel to Christians about what they are to do about it. They actually put believers in harm's way with regard to the coming economic tsunami that is about to hit. They tell believers that, “Oh, God loves you. You are His child. He will take care of you even when others around you are going through the economic crisis.”

Most (if not all) are even missing the End Times context of this transition of economic and political influence away from the USA to European Union , and are actually telling people to pray against it . ( Hint : You cannot pray against things already recorded in the Books of Daniel and Revelation. They are already pre-determined—and surely going to come to pass as foretold.)

This means many of these errant ministers also be guilty of what the Lord shared later in that passage of Ezekiel 13:

O Israel, your prophets have been like foxes among ruins and in waste places. You have not gone up into the gaps or breeches, nor built up the wall for the house of Israel that it might stand in the battle in the day of the Lord. They have seen falsehood and lying divination, saying, The Lord says; but the Lord has not sent them. Yet they have hoped and made men to hope for the confirmation of their word . … Because, even because they have seduced My people, saying, Peace, when there is no peace, and because when one builds a [flimsy] wall, behold, [these prophets] daub it over with whitewash. Say to them who daub it with whitewash that it shall fall! There shall be a downpour of rain; and you, O great hailstones, shall fall, and a violent wind shall tear apart [the whitewashed, flimsy wall]. Behold, when the wall is fallen, will you not be asked, Where is the coating with which you [prophets] daubed it? ( verses 4-6, 10-12 AMP )

Let me mention briefly that I am considered a prophet by others, and like Ezekiel, I have great disdain for so-called prophetic ministers that lead people to believe lies and promote unbiblical counsel. Some may be sincere, and just merely misinterpreting what they believe they heard from the Lord. However, others are certainly not being honest with the people to which they purport to “minister.”

(Now, I will refrain from mentioning any by name within this article in order to avoid distraction from the main issues at hand. But if you are familiar with any who have given sugar-coated “words” lately about these subjects, you probably already know some of the prophets to which I am referring—since some of whom actually have well-known ministries.)

In the light of all that I have written so far, let me also add that you need to run away from any so-called “prophet” who gives “this is the year of the blessing” type of prophesies. One such “prophet” who I know personally ( but no longer have anything to do with , I might add) just loves giving those “feel good” sugar-coated predictions and “words” publicly. However, I happen to know circumstantially that he and his family are probably well-invested offshore in precioius metals. So the pure self-serving hypocrisy in this guy's “prophesies” is quite startling.

While all such people's “God-loves-you-and-will-take-care-of-you” rhetoric sounds wonderful, the fact is that they are sharing only half-truths . God our Father DOES love us and wants to take care of all His children… but He can ONLY take care of those who obey Him and take appropriate action. Children who do not obey their Father are not blessed.

In essence, both the “belated prophets” and “sugary prophe liars ” are in great error. They both propagate beliefs that are in opposition to established biblical precedent (though the later does so surely because of sinister agendas). So let me clarify things from a purely biblical perspective…

Biblical Precedent

What did Noah have to do to “save his household” when he received prophetic forewarning of the disaster to come? That's right… he had to build an ark . He had to do something specific in obedience to God:

By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith. ( Hebrews 11:7, NIV )

Did Noah have faith? The Bible says he did. But his faith was proven through his corresponding action!

So also faith, if it does not have works (deeds and actions of obedience to back it up), by itself is destitute of power (inoperative, dead). But someone will say [to you then], You [say you] have faith, and I have [good] works. Now you show me your [alleged] faith apart from any [good] works [if you can], and I by [good] works [of obedience] will show you my faith. ( James 2:17-18, AMP )

What did Joseph have to do in Egypt after receiving the prophetic interpretation to Pharaoh's dreams? He had to store grain during the good years, so there would be something there during the famine ( Genesis 41 ).

What did Isaac have to do when he realized that he was already in the midst of a famine? At first, he was going to do the prudent thing and head to Egypt where there was grain (Egypt's farms were watered by the Nile river, and not dependent on rain like Canaan's were). But then he received a prophetic word, telling him to remain in the impoverished land, and to sow REAL seed in that REAL dirt, so that God could prosper him with a REAL grain harvest ( Genesis 26 ). As a result, he ended up controlling the grain market and became the wealthiest man in town:

Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold, because the LORD blessed him. The man became rich, and his wealth continued to grow until he became very wealthy. He had so many flocks and herds and servants that the Philistines envied him….Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “Move away from us; you have become too powerful for us.” (Genesis 26:12-14,16, NIV)

It is a biblical and historical fact: All great wealth transfers have occurred in the midst of economic crises. However, primarily those who were prepared ahead of time (either through natural wisdom or prophetic foresight) were in position to receive that wealth (the rest simply lost all of theirs). A few, like Isaac, may have found themselves in the midst of the crisis and took appropriate action to prosper it its midst. But by and large, it is those who prepare ( like the ant of Proverbs 6:6-11 ) that are the ones who will prosper .

While I have heard many ministers use the story of Isaac in their sermons, every one that I have heard has used it within a context of “sowing seed” (ie money offerings) into the ministry— and usually THEIR ministry . It took the Lord Himself to point out to me one day many years ago in essence, “When I told that to Isaac, he heard 'real' seed in 'real' dirt. Consequently, I gave him a real harvest when he acted on that word.”

My brothers and sisters, in order to receive a REAL harvest, you need to sow REAL seed into REAL dirt. You have to do SOMETHING practical if you want God to “bless the work of your hands” ( Deuteronomy 28:8 ). If you do not put your “hand” to something practical— in obedience to the Lord (Deuteronomy 28:1-2)—you will not be “blessed” by the Lord in return. In fact, neither physical nor mental laziness is ever blessed by the Lord:

I went by the field of the lazy man , and by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding ; And there it was, all overgrown with thorns; Its surface was covered with nettles; Its stone wall was broken down. When I saw it, I considered it well; I looked on it and received instruction: A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest; So shall your poverty come like a prowler, and your need like an armed man. ( Proverbs 24:30-34, NKJV )

In other words, there is a pragmatic side to the Bible's admonitions about finances, economics, and money. In fact, the pragmatic side is the MOST prevalent application of those Scriptures—not the metaphorical applications to spiritual things (and especially, offerings) on which most preachers major.

So Noah had to build an ark, Joseph had to collect grain, Isaac had to sow REAL seed in REAL dirt… all in order for them to survive and thrive in the midst of disaster. Do you think it is any different for us? Certainly, no.

Study to Show Thyself Approved

When the Lord gave me that original word back in November, 2006, He also instructed me to STUDY. Obeying the Lord's direction, I bought several books and began a detailed education process. I have now processed thousands of pages of research and information, and I am still going. Absorbing topics such as international banking, economics, what constitutes real money (ie silver and gold, not that worthless paper trash), and more, I am endeavoring to understand all that I can in order to best build “financial arks” to the saving of households… and even nations .

So in summary, I first received a prophetic word. Then I was prophetically instructed to get an education on the subject. Since obeying and doing so, I have put forth real physical and practical effort to “build” my own family's “financial ark” in preparation for the coming flood. Moreover, I am sharing not only the prophetic word— but the practical application of that word —with anyone who will listen. I want others to know how to prepare for the coming economic tsunami so that they can be blessed too.

What Do You Do Now?

The first thing I suggest, my brothers and sisters, is to get away from the “prophets-come-lately” regardless of who they are or their reputation. Many of them have established reputations as prophets and prophetesses, so they are not necessarily “new” to the ministry scene per se. However, their last-minute prophesies, and errant applications thereof, are very dangerous. They are encouraging laziness and unpreparedness, when the Bible clearly says to get ready for what the Lord is warning us will soon come. So shun “fluff” prophets, and keep an ear open only to those who are on track.

The next thing is to get a VERY quick education on what is going on. Ignorance will soon prove catastrophic if not corrected. So you need to fill your head with something pragmatic about these things. My following blog posts (and their many related third-party links) will help you get started:

• The Economic Tsunami is Coming (Move to Higher Ground Quickly) — A recent and short article that explains the urgency of acting now, in the light of current “pre-tsunami” conditions.
• Economics, Gold, and the Word of the Lord (Part 1) — The prophetic word from November 2006 about the coming collapse.
• Economics, Gold, and the Word of the Lord (Part 2) — Some of the “End Times” eschatological context of the above prophetic word.
• Robert Kiyosaki on Gold, Currencies, and the US Economic Collapse — A video teaching by the best-selling business author of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book series.
• God's Money, and Private Coinage — A recent educational post on the biblical/historical basis for precious metals as money, and an insightful essay on the need for private coinage in commerce today.
• Gold/Silver Referrals — Information and several recommended resources by which you can quickly obtain gold and/or silver.
• Prosperity Vs. Theological Error — This discourse that differentiates between biblical prosperity teaching (such as that which you read already within this very article) and theological excesses propagated by so-called “prosperity preachers” (one I know personally is named therein specifically). It is very important for you to keep spiritually pure and balanced during your efforts to prepare for the coming economic “storm.” This article will help you to properly identify true from false teaching on these topics.

Finally… get BUSY building your own ark! I and my family are safely within our own, so please get yourself similarly prepared before the flood comes.

Loving you, and sharing the truth that will set you free,

-Rich

At first glance, the economic news today seems quite confusing. The United States' economic fundamentals are indicating that a major disaster is looming on the near horizon. The nation debt is soaring even as the FED inflates the money supply and injects new capital in its failing banking system.

While much of the mainstream media talks about the $700 billion “bailout package” passed by Congress (to this nation's detriment), few are noticing the nearly $440 billion per DAY that is being pumped into the US banking system outside of that “package” in order to prop up the failing system. With the US financial system now essentially nationalized , bankruptcies rising, mortgage defaults soaring, real estate markets rapidly falling, and the DOW down over 5,000 point from its high just a year ago—major economic collapse in surely eminent.

Yet in spite of the historical tendency for the prices of strategic commodities such as gold, silver, and oil to rise in the midst of such an economic turmoil, they are actually plunging in advance of the economic disaster that is sure to come. What is up with this? And why are so many financial experts yet saying this trend will reverse BIG… and very soon? The answer, my friends, can be found in the very term often used to describe the catastrophe to come: An Economic Tsunami .

In studying the natural phenomena of a tsunami wave, you will quickly discover that the waters near the shoreline of “ground zero” actually recede in advance of the coming waves . This tendency is due to the fact that the coming tsunami waves are literally feeding themselves with the waters closer to shore, even as they grow in size and intensity as they close toward the coast. As the following animation both explains and demonstrates , the receding waters are not to be interpreted as mere curiosities… but rather, warning signs of the disaster that is to soon come:

It is interesting to note that the above scientific explanation warns that tsunamis come in several waves. In a similar way, the coming economic tsunami will come in several waves and bring tremendous destruction to the US (and thus, global) economic and banking systems.

Moreover, just like was explained concerning a natural tsunami occurrence in the video, the coming economic tsunami is building strength. My friends, it is time to run for “high ground” by buying up all the silver and gold you can locally at these amazingly reduced prices, and to quickly build your own “financial ark” in preparation for what is to soon come. The following articles will help you find your bearings in these confusing times, and provide you with additional focus and clarity on what paths to quickly follow to safety:

• Economics, Gold, and the Word of the Lord (Part 1) — The prophetic word from November 2006 about the coming collapse.
• Economics, Gold, and the Word of the Lord (Part 2) — Some of the “End Times” eschatological context of the above prophetic word.
• Robert Kiyosaki on Gold, Currencies, and the US Economic Collapse — A video teaching by the best-selling business author of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book series.
• God's Money, and Private Coinage — A recent educational post on the biblical/historical basis for precious metals as money, and an insightful essay on the need for private coinage in commerce today.
• Gold Referral s — Information, and two recommended resources by which you can quickly obtain gold and/or silver.

To learn more about me and my credibility on discussing these subjects, click on the “ Who is Rich Vermillion ” tab at the top of this blog to read a biography written by someone who has known me for years.

I will be writing more on these topics later, but I am currently in the middle of a major ministry project. However, in the light of the current economic trends and “signs” of the coming tsunami, I had to take a few minutes away from the other project to write this quick warning for your benefit.

Please do NOT delay to take action quickly . The economic “tsunami” is surely coming, and the current trends in gold/silver prices give you an excellent opportunity to build your own “financial ark” in preparation for what is just a short time away. My family and I—and many of our friends—have already built our “arks”… and we continue to add “more room” to them daily. I emphatically urge you to do the same, in all haste, even as Noah did:

By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. ( Hebrews 11:7, NIV )

My brothers and sisters: Be “moved with holy fear” (ie not an immobilizing terror, but a sober realization of what is going on coupled with a strong sense of self-preservation). Quickly start building your own “financial arks” without delay. And may God bless you and all that is yours as you follow Him, and both pursue and act on wisdom speedily with all your heart.

In Jesus,

-Rich

Gold and Silver Referrals

( Updated September 6, 2009 ): This page has evolved over time to now recommend several different sources of precious metals bullion: Initially, I recommended YOUnique™ Wealth Systems (YWS) for gold coins (formerly called, Joseph Wealth Systems™, or JWS) and The Anglo Far East Company (AFE) for custodial vaulting of both gold and silver bullion (as well as other investment services). Now I recommend the GATA.org recommended vendor list for both gold and silver coins and bullion.

Conditions for Recommendation

Let me state that my hearty recommendations herein are conditional , and based on my continued opinion that they are reliable and worthy of your trust. As the Lord Himself has even said in Scripture:

When I say to the righteous that he shall surely live, but he trusts in his own righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his righteous works shall be remembered; but because of the iniquity that he has committed, he shall die. Again, when I say to the wicked, 'You shall surely die,' if he turns from his sin and does what is lawful and right, if the wicked restores the pledge, gives back what he has stolen, and walks in the statutes of life without committing iniquity, he shall surely live; he shall not die. None of his sins which he has committed shall be remembered against him; he has done what is lawful and right; he shall surely live….I will judge every one of you according to his own ways.” ( Ezekiel 33:13-16, 20b, NKJV )

In other words, God Himself reserves the right to change His mind about a person (or nation, or thing) based upon their ongoing decisions and actions. In the same way, I soberly reserve the right to revoke my recommendations of ANY person or company, should I deem the circumstances so require. Therefore, by listing these companies here, I am giving you a sincere recommendation based upon their continued honorable qualification for that recommendation.

The Need for Sources

Let me now begin by clearly note why I am recommending these several companies to you : It is VERY important that you have ”on hand” real money (ie gold and silver) for post-economic collapse purchases of goods and services within the free-market “barter-based” economies that will most definitely emerge—and that is where Anglo Far East, YOUnique™ Wealth Systems, and others recommended herein, are useful. YWS has proven to be a very reliable supply of bullion in my own experience. Further, the GATA.org recommended vendor list includes compaies that offer bullion coins and bars, that have also been vetted (proven) and are often highly touted by other reliable industry experts.

On the other hand, if you have larger financial holdings to protect (eg a retirement account to role over, or a stocks to liquidate and reallocate), then you also need to look at non-USA-based “offshore” custodial vaulting for safe storage of precious metals—preferably in Switzerland. That is the role that AFE is better suited to fulfill, as well as the “custodial vaulting” companies listed in the GATA.org list. Thus, with all thse various recommended compaies herein, you can cover the majority of your precious metals needs.

However, let me also emphasize the need for you to obtain PHYSICAL gold and silver within your own locality if you can— especially for your “on hand” supply of gold and silver. As the old English proverb says, “A bird in the hand is worth more than two in the bush.” Thus, if you can purchase these precious metals locally, you are highly advised to do so quickly while the prices remain low .

With that said, let me also explain to you the two sources I am recommending herein, beginning with YWS…

YOUnique™ Wealth Systems

In many parts of the word (like the Orient, Middle-East, Russia, etc.) gold coinage is as easy to obtain as fruit in the local market. However, many Western nations are finding shortages as the combination of high demand and government mint rationing are making good coinage hard to find.

For this reason, I highly recommend you consider adding one of my associate's YOUnique™ Wealth Systems coin supply to your list of sources for both gold coinage and silver bars (see coin links below). Their gold coins and silver bars are minted at a highly-reputable mint in Switzerland, and shipped either Swiss Post or Federal Express (FedEx) anonymously to well over 40 nations of the world. YWS' gold and silver bullion sources are extensive and they have relationships with several backup mints (including the Perth mint in Australia), so their coin and bar supply is not likely to diminish anytime soon.

The gold coins are also embossed with a biblical scene, and are of the biblical weights of the gold shekel and quarter shekel (making them a more convenient size than most of their government-minted counterparts). This gives them a religious significance that may help avoid government confiscation, such as happened in the USA in 1933 when President Roosevelt demanded the population's gold— except for gold in forms that also held religious significance.

(To take a look at YWS, click only one of the following coins—whichever is currently the most appropriate to your location and language preference—because whichever link you click first will be the colleague's website that shows whenever you visit YOUnique Wealth Systems thereafter.)

For North America (English), click the following coin:

For other international locations (English), click the following coin:

For other international locations (Spanish), click the following coin:

In this time of US economic meltdown and global financial upheaval we now live , it is important that you build a quick and significant supply of gold coin and silver bars (and/or coins) since gold & silver is real money— which (as Robert Kiyosaki has said) God made, and not man . I have researched YWS heavily, and was so impressed with their product, distribution, and marketing system, that I even joined YOUnique™ Wealth Systems by becoming a merchant myself. (If you wish to view my own YWS web page, you can do so here: http://www.youniquewealth.com/richvermillion )

I have ordered quite a few coins from YWS since then, and have had no problems receiving exactly what I ordered within a reasonable time for the part of the world in which I live. I have not had any customs (ie import tax) issues either. It is my own satisfactory personal experience with YWS that now allows me to recommend YOUnique™ Wealth Systems—and specifically my associate's YWS business—as a reliable source for good gold coin. Check out one of the above YWS websites for even more information.

Disclosure : I want to openly note again that the YWS websites to which I have linked this page belong to some of my key associate merchants (and from time to time, I rotate to which associates these links point). Consequently, I do receive an indirect financial benefit from your patronage of their YWS businesses— although the direct benefit actually goes to somebody else . Of course, if you click on my own YWS link above, the benefits go directly to me and my family.

As I close this section about YOUnique™ Wealth Systems, may I also suggest that you read my new blog post entitled God's Money, and Private Coinage to learn more about the need for obtaining both gold and silver coinage in preparation for the Economic Tsunami that is soon to come to the USA and global economies .

The Anglo Far East Company

For large amounts of gold and silver bullion, I highly recommend you investigate and utilize The Anglo Far East Company , from which YOUnique™ Wealth Systems originated. This is the company that the Lord originally directed me to when He said, “Go find Peter Daniels' gold bank” back in 2006 . Again… I have investigated them thoroughly, and have even met a few of its directors. In the light of this fact, I recommend them for custodial vaulting of gold and silver, and their many other investment services as noted on their website.

NOTE : I do NOT receive any direct or indirect benefit for referring you to The Anglo Far East Company. I only can expect a Heavenly reward for passing the information along to you.

GATA.org's Recommended Bullion Vendors

The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee (GATA.org) has assembled a list of highly qualified, vetted, and approved vendors of gold and silver bullion (see below). This list includes firms from around the world, and they vary in types of services they offer. Some are custodial vaulting services like Anglo Far East above (which company is also on their list, and listed first alphabetically). Others offer gold and/or silver bullion in bar, ingot, or coin forms (much like YOUnique™ Wealth Systems above, which is included in this list by extension from their AFE recommendation).

Please mention GATA when you contact any on this list because some of them have committed to donating a portion of their bullion sales to GATA to help further their excellent work.

Of course, you need to do your own due diligence to check these companies out BEFORE transacting any business with them. The fact that they appear on this list is sufficient evidence that they are companies of high regard and reputation. However, this does NOT mean they are a perfect fit for YOUR specific needs, nor a permanent guarantee of the integrity of these companies. So, please take the time to compare companies on the list via their websites, and do additional investigation via the Internet and/or phone calls.

Safety Measures

Lastly, with regard to custodial vaulting (storage) of your bullion: It is generally a good policy to be invested in multiple jurisdictions with your investments. In other words, consider choosing more than one company with which to do business, and choose companies who vault (store) the bullion in different locations. This is especially true if you have significant amounts of worthless paper currencies to convert to real money (bullion) via custodial vaulting. So for example, if you choose AFE as one of your companies (which I highly recommend) then you may want to choose a second or third firm to vault, which stores their bullion somewhere other than Switzerland (as AFE does) as a safety precaution. against an unknown future.

That said, I recommend ANYWHERE in the world other than the USA for vaulting, and I am not very keen on the UK (England) either. These two jurisdictions are highly likely to confiscate bullion for their own needs in an “emergency” as their own poor management of their finances causes their economies to implode. Canada, the Orient, and other locations are typically considered safer choices by savvy investors.

NOTE : Like AFE above, I do NOT receive any direct or indirect benefit for referring you to GATA.org's list of preferred bullion vendors.

Blessings to you and all that is yours as you follow Jesus (in Hebrew, Yeshua ) by obeying His Word and the leading of the Holy Spirit in your life.

In Jesus,

This is a “must-watch” educational supplement to the other information available on this website. The video below is both informative and timely , especially given the current global and US economic conditions (please note the Financial News feed to the far right of your browser window).

Just in case you are not familiar with the man, however, the following biographical excerpt might help shed some light on who he is before you watch the clip:

Robert Kiyosaki is an investor, businessman and best-selling author. His books, Rich Dad Poor Dad , Rich Dad's Cashflow Quadrant , and Rich Dad's Guide to Investing are all best sellers. His ventures have allowed him to retire early, and his teachings are followed all around the world….

In 1985 Robert Kiyosaki founded an education company that taught business and investing to thousands of students all over the world which proved very successful. In 1994 he retired at the age of 47. Even after retirement Robert continued with real estate and business investments, and wrote the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, which hit bookstores in 1997.

…Robert has since written four more bestsellers under the “Rich Dad” brand and to date has sold more than 12 million books (in 29 different languages)….

Robert Kiyosaki has a profound message for those wanting to improve their financial lives. That message is: “With every dollar in your hand, you have the power to choose to be rich, poor or middle class.”

(You may read the above full biography online by clicking here . Moreover, Robert's best-selling books and the Rich Dad Advisor Series books are all over Amazon and in virtually any bookstore.)

In addition to the biographical information above, let me note here that Robert Kiyosaki professes to be a Christian. (However, please also note that his profession does not prove that he is a Christian; I have not been able to personally confirm that he is truly born again.) He has described himself as a Presbyterian and occasionally references Scripture within his books. Beyond the testimony of his own public profession, however, the following video will readily attest that Robert seems to have a firm grasp of both the biblical and economic ramifications of the current financial trends:

Blessings to you, as you pursue and obey God's plan for your life.

A prudent man sees the evil and hides himself, but the simple pass on and are punished [with suffering] . (Proverbs 22:3, AMP)

Have you noticed the news lately? Unravelling debt bubbles, currency devaluations, stock market fluctuations, and sudden shortages of real money… that is, gold and silver coinage. (As I have been explaining in my post series, Economics, Gold, and the Word of the Lord , there is actually a prophetic and End-Time significance to all that is happening today in global financial systems and markets.)

Double-digit real inflationary pressures are eating up people's savings—and their paychecks—faster than many can find new sources of income to bridge the ever widening gap. However, the Bible indicates plainly in the passage above that it is wise and prudent to see the proverbial “writing on the wall” and take refuge in a safe haven somewhere before it is too late. Ale gdzie? (The Bear-Stearns buyout fisaco alone should prove to most people that stock portfolios and mutual funds are a losing proposition.)

My recommendation is where the Bible and 5,000 years of monetary history points: gold and silver, the monetary metals of all history. In fact, way back in the story of creation itself the Scriptures indicated to us that a good place to “hide” from developing economic dangers can be found in the “Land of Haviliah”:

…the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. And the gold of that land is good . (Genesis 2:11-12, NKJV)

Gold in particular has held its value since ancient times. An ounce of gold today will purchase about the same amount of goods and services that an ounce of gold did in the days when Jesus walked the earth. Thus, gold is a true storehouse of value that can be counted on to hold its purchasing power—even when the “paper” currencies of the world system (which are actually notes of debt, and not true money in the technical sense) are depreciating daily.

Even best-selling financial author Robert Kiyosaki of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” fame says “The reason gold and silver is so important is that gold and silver is God's money. It is money made by God…. Cash [ie paper currency not backed by gold or silver] is trash .” (See my post entitled, Robert Kiyosaki on Gold, Currencies, and the US Economic Collapse for more about what Robert says.)

However, you need to obtain gold in tangible form that can be available to you when you need it. It needs to be available in a form that is transferable to others in an acceptable manner. Thus you should ideally buy gold in the form of coinage , as has been done for thousands of years, and then keep it in a safe place until you want to convert it to cash (ie sell it for its appreciated value) or need it for purchasing things should an economic crisis arise. You also need to buy LOTS of it to do you any good. Thus, an additional income stream would help you tremendously to accumulate gold bullion coins more rapidly than your current income sources might presently allow.

Very importantly, any avenue for obtaining gold coinage must also have those coins IN STOCK . (You can't very well use something you cannot get.) Better yet, that source needs to have access to an INTERNATIONAL source of gold bullion coins from reputable private mints—and NOT rely solely on the US Mint or any government mint to supply the coins, as they have a habit of rationing supplied during peak demand times (like those being experienced now).

I recommend, therefore, Joseph Wealth Systems (JWS) as a very suitable and timely source. I have done the research, and invested myself in gold coins through JWS. Therefore I can recommend Joseph Wealth Systems to you because of my own personal (and highly satisfactory) experience.
