Should You Prepare For What is Coming?

0:03 Good evening. Tonight we're talking about some very interesting things, particularly, should you prepare for the end of time? It's a very controversial topic among not only specific denominations, but also any denomination. Is there even going to be one? Well, we're going to talk about that. But before we get too far into it, we're going to cover Ukraine, we're going to cover Russia, we're also going to cover some natural disasters, both man-made disasters and non-man-made disasters, on this show. And you don't want to miss it, because we've got lots and lots of example footage that we're going to show you. So stick around, listen to what is being said, not only by us, but in this video. And we'll see you very soon. I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated.

1:00 The Interspirit will declare themselves to be inhabitants of five distant planets in the galaxies that are coming to... One, the inhabitants of planet Earth, or the impending destruction of the planet. It is now 90 seconds to midnight. I still think these are what people call angels. I'm dying to know what they've got to say. Pretty severe suffering brings them. These entities have the ability to appear in any form. Welcome to Strange Normal, my name is Bradley.

2:48 We talk about the stranger things that happen in your normal life to give you a biblical understanding of what is going on. And there is a lot going on, so make sure you hit that subscribe button. Hit that bell. Click on so you're notified when things like this happen. Folks, we've got quite a show tonight. We're going to talk a lot about a lot of different things, particularly nuclear weapons, which is a very interesting topic in the news right now, and it is for good reason. Because it's thrown around by your leadership like it's no big deal. For ages, we've been able to maybe lob cannonballs as the worst, worst, worst thing that we could do. And only recently have we been able to... We've been able to get rid of entire countries with nuclear weapons. So it really blows my mind that anybody would even consider this, and I hope it's not being considered. But we're going to get into that about midway in the show. But first, leading up to that, we're going to talk a little bit about North Carolina.

3:45 In the States, we've had a huge, huge, huge storm come through. And it's interesting to see what has happened, how the government, not only just the American government, but I believe that this is similar throughout many different governments, how it's handling this situation, and whether or not you should be prepared for something like this to happen. Not only this, but any type of natural disaster. Because it seems like they're getting worse and worse and worse, and we're told that they will be. So, enough of my rambling. I'm going to introduce our guest tonight. And I want to say, hello, Mikey. How are you? Hello, Brad. What's up? Good to be on the show again. Absolutely. Absolutely. Also, hello to Andrew, who couldn't make it. We were trying our best to get our audio working tonight. And we're going to try to, a little bit after the show, to try to figure out what in the world is wrong with his audio.

4:38 Because it was just delayed by four seconds. And it just wouldn't make a good show. I was looking at my settings. He was looking at his settings. We're just going to have to have a little bit more prep time. Because he really had a lot prepared for the show. And I really feel bad for this. But we just couldn't get it in time. And we wanted to make sure that your time as a group. Is valuable. As well as Mikey's time. And mine, too. So, Andrew, if you're listening, we love you. And next time, we're going to do this. But, on with the show. Mikey, I have a piece of radioactive material sitting in front of me. Sounds dangerous. It is. And I want to keep it as far away from me as possible. I'm going to show you what I've got here.

5:25 This is called... You can't see it. But I'm going to drop it right here. This is called... Americanium-241. Did you know that everybody, at least in America, has one of these, or multiple pieces of this, in their house? Every single person. Americanium-241. It is radioactive. I'm going to... Is it like a ball of metal, kind of? It looks like it. But what it actually is, it's a ball of metal. They call it a button. That's what they call it inside. It's solid, though, right? It's not mercury or something. Yeah. The radioactive stuff, it's solid. It's inside of a metal casing. But it is a... I'm trying to turn it over here, because I want to put it back, and I don't want to touch it. I'm going to just scoot it off back into this thing right here.

6:21 It doesn't harm you as long as it's within the case. And I... I'm going to keep it there. But I'm also going to show you... This is a radiation monitor. I wish you could see this better. It's a Geiger meter? It is. It is. I'm going to turn it on, and we're going to see just what this thing does when I put it over the top of this thing. Try to face it up. So... Ah! Popped out. It's not... Like, if I hold it in my hand, it's not going to, you know, kill me. But if you put it up to your eyeball, you might have, you know, a little bit of problem with that. So... I... I'm not going to put it up to my eyeball. But as you can see, it's going up to, you know, quite a bit. And it's telling me that you need to stay away from this thing. What? So... So... Okay, so where is this thing in our home? Yeah.

7:15 So I'm going to turn this thing off, because otherwise it's going to keep beeping at me, because it's going down now that I put it away. And I'm taking this thing, and I'm going to put it away, away, away from me. Because I don't want it anywhere near me. But... Let me bring it back to us real quick. But... So where is this thing in our house? Well, it's... It's... It's your... I want to see if the chat knows real quick. Let me just see if the chat knows where it is. I'm going to ask the chat, where is this thing in the house that's radioactive that everybody has in their house? I'm wondering if it's, like, in a smart meter or something? Well... It's close. It's... Everyone has to have it. And it's... Everyone's required to have it. Um... Still... I know we're a bit delayed in the chat, so I'm going to wait for anyone to say... Okay, Mick says thermostat. Um...

8:07 Jason Just and Brad Larson got it correct. The smoke detector. Oh. Interesting. Yep, yep. The smoke detectors are... Contain this Americanian... I bet you... I hope you guys didn't Google that. But, yeah, it contains this stuff. And... And I... You can take it out. If you're careful about it, there are YouTube videos showing you how to do it. But the reason why I had it is because I wanted to test this Geiger counter, which I have here. And the reason why I have one is because I live near a nuclear power facility. I've been to Brad's house, and you can see it looks like the Simpsons over there, or how the Simpson works. It's kind of scary. It is. And, you know, it's not my... It was... It was a God-given... It was a God-given property. And so, maybe God's choice is to destroy me quickly before it comes.

9:04 I don't know. Yeah, when things go down. But... Do you know what to do when you see the flash? Duck and cover. Our parents learned that. Oh, yeah. That's right. In the 60s, 70s. That was a big deal. They had those black and white cartoons they'd show at school of a turtle who would, like, go into a shell. Do you know what to do when you see the flash? Duck and cover. Like, ducking is going to save anything. I know. And that was... When was that? During the Cold War? I don't remember, but... I don't remember either. I decided to get one of these just to see if the area would pick up any, you know, radioactive... If I was near this stuff, you know, is it actually radiating from that facility? And how bad is it? What is the ground level radiation level as I'm playing outside? Did you get any kind of reading? No. It's all fine. Good. But, yeah, it was kind of scary.

9:55 So, I wanted to make sure that was... It was good. And, by the way, we're going to talk more about this, but this was... The reason why I picked this one, I'm just... This is not paid for by QDB, you know, radioactive... Sponsored by. Sponsored by, yeah. But it is a really good monitor, and I did a lot of research on it. And there's a couple of YouTube channels that actually test them according to other thousands and thousands of dollars worth of very good equipment. And this one was 50 bucks. I think I paid maybe just a little above that, but... So, if you click on the link in the description, Brad will get a little cut there. I might... Yeah, if you guys want... You should do it. I'll do it. I'll put a link out if you guys want to grab this, because, you know, it's a good monitor. But the reason why I'm talking about that is because we're going to talk about nuclear weapons.

10:45 We're going to talk about everything that pertains to that and why is this a big deal. But first, let's talk a little bit about North Carolina. Let's talk about natural disasters. Before we talk about man-made disasters, because it's interesting. And it's interesting how the government is reacting to this. And I'm not political, but anyway, what you were going to say. Me neither. No, I'm glad you're talking about this, because I was on vacation visiting my in-laws in Colorado for a little over a week when all this stuff was happening. And when we left, it was like the next day that we started hearing about it. All this hurricane and stuff. And so I was concerned. I was reaching out to my cousins and my dad and stuff, making sure that everybody was cool. And it didn't. People got, you know, some wind and some rain.

11:39 But my cousins, we have a cousin chat thing in the text. And they started asking me, like, so, Mikey, what do you think about this? And I'm like, I don't know. I haven't been paying attention. But I knew that there were some, I don't know, some ideas going around that this might not be as natural as we thought. And me being a conspiratorial-minded person, they were wanting to hear what I had to think. But I haven't got a chance to look into it. So I'm really glad we're talking about this. Yeah, yeah. And my fascination is obviously, you know, is this real? Is it man-made? Maybe China's out here trying to pump money out of us in order to help whatever it is they're doing. Because maybe it's China. Maybe it's Russia. Who knows? There's a lot of enemies right now that the States is. Is acquiring. But not only that, why isn't the government helping?

12:31 And I say that tongue-in-cheek. But I want you to listen to some of the testimonies from this. But first, let's listen to what is actually going on over there from people who have cell phones and have service. Check this out. This is interesting. Let's play this. Well, my house is currently flooding. And my neighbor's house is... What is that? I saw a big old flat lawn. Is that a car? I saw a car come out. My car? Gone. It could have been up there, but I decided to be hard-headed. And now that poor car is honing on my thread. I called the emergency. They said they're going to be on their way, but... I don't know how many people are probably already calling them. I probably should have left. I should have listened to everybody. But did I? No, because I'm hard-headed.

13:29 Because she's hard-headed. Is that what she said? What in the world do you do? Yeah, you can't just... You can't swim in that. I've tried to cross rivers that are going probably not as fast as that. And it's... I almost went down a river. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's really strong. That was like as high as a first floor or something. Yeah, and not only that, but she's in her second-story house watching this stuff happen. Watching cars. Watching... I mean, I saw houses going down the river as well. I can't imagine that thing's going to be very safe. It's going to collapse on her. And so I... My hat's off to all of Asheville. Asheville, was it? Asheville, North Carolina? I forget. Biltmore. All of them out there that have gone through this. Here's another one that I thought was interesting. Opens the front door.

14:21 Looks like it's snowing as well. Absolute insanity. Wow. So I think there's... And this is... Think about the people that need insulin. Think about the people that need... That are in wheelchairs. I mean, this thing came upon people at O-Dark 30. And, you know, sirens are going off and stuff. But people sleep through that sometimes. I know I have sirens around me just for the fact that I have a nuclear power facility nearby. And it's across the river. But there's still evacuation routes.

15:18 There's still all this stuff. And I hear the sirens going off at noon on Wednesday. Every month. Once a month. First Wednesday of the month. So... Why? What is it for? Just testing. But every time it gets me. Yeah, it's a typical sound. The air raid siren you hear. But it's a little creepy. But, you know, if you were inside, you'd sleep right through it. So, I mean, what do you do? Man. Yeah, go for it. I'm going to go for another video. I just... The last time I really remember a really strange type of quote-unquote natural disaster was... It was like... Summertime. Or... It was not wintertime. And in Texas, people were having, like... Pipes were busting and it was freezing, like, instantly.

16:13 Like, they were showing their roof, like, in the two-story house or something. They were showing their roof and there's, like, icicles hanging and stuff. Just crazy stuff. And a lot of people were saying, like, this is not normal. Yeah. This is something totally... Yeah. Unnatural. Because it's in the mountains. They didn't expect... I mean, one person says that they were in Florida. They were tired of Florida. And they moved to North Carolina to get away from that. And they were in the mountains. And all of a sudden, they were in the middle of another hurricane. 300 miles from ashore. And it's in the middle of a hurricane. What is going on? And you just got to wonder, what's happening here? Watch... What about this? Let's get some... If this is the right one, this should be talking about... The rescue of a woman. Let's get some positivity in here just for a second.

17:01 Watch this. Stunning image. An 84-year-old wheelchair-bound woman up to her neck in water in her home. That's a horror movie. Her belongings floating around her. We look at four feet of water, and I've been swimming forever. Her son, 49-year-old Johnny Lauder, swam half a mile through a flooded neighborhood of Naples to reach her. We're arriving to grandma's. He and his son found the matriarch of the family inside her flooded house. Alive, but terrified. Got her up on the table, wrapped up so she doesn't go into hypothermia. Then they had to push Karen Lauder in her wheelchair through the water to get her to the hospital. Wow. Dude, that's insane, dude. Yeah. Yeah. Like, if he would have been an hour late or something, she would have been just underwater. It was rising. And what do you do with that if you're handicapped, if you have a medical condition? I mean, these are serious, especially in these...

17:58 I just can't imagine. I mean, it's one thing to be an able body and be swept away. It's another thing to be completely helpless. So there is a theory, not theory, but there's this thing going around. I can't verify it because it's hard to verify it because... Ah, should I say this yet? The government is kind of not happy with individuals going to help these people. I didn't hear that much. And it blows my mind. And we're going to get into that. But I think it's imperative that we need to help our neighbors. We need to look into how we can bring supplies to the needy. I mean, even if they are just a town over. It's so sad, too, because they're just a few hundred miles away from us, too. Yeah. People have decided they're going to start leaving on foot.

18:54 But this one guy, this is just a story I heard on the news. He interviewed, he said, I walked 30 miles because I was inland 30 miles and my daughter was getting married. And he wanted to walk her down the aisle. He was the dad of the daughter getting married. And so he walked 30 miles. He said, I had to walk over things that were like 14 feet high of piles of debris. I had to get around. The walk... Washed out areas. He says, I was walking with just my cell phone light when it got dusk and dark all night in order to try to reach my daughter. And she had no idea I was I was walking this far just to come to the wedding. And that's one thing. And then there's there's people. And so this is what it looks like when someone leaves on foot. Sorry. Hold your thought. Just a second. Watch this real quick. Get out of here.

19:55 Here's where the road is. We're transporting all the pets, all of our sh**. This is basically what's stopping us from getting out of here. The road is a mess. The road is a mess. The road is a mess. The road is a mess. The road is a mess. It's gone. Man. Time over the house. So what are you going to say? Sorry. Oh, dude. No, I was just trying to figure out the scenario. So he was... His daughter was getting married somewhere outside of North Carolina, but he was stuck in North Carolina and he was walking to get there. He didn't say exactly where it was. He just said it was somewhere and he was supposed to be there. So he had a, you know, it's like a 30 minute drive. But her wedding was continuing. Like she wasn't hit by all this. Yeah. Well, he couldn't contact her and say, hey, I've been hit by a storm. I'm not going to make it because, you know, cell phone. Cell phone service, electric service, water service, all that stuff is out. And so he just has to walk. He's like, I'm going to miss the wedding because of what's happened.

20:45 All my roads leading there. I can't go by car. And so I'm just going to walk it. And he walked all day in order to get there. And there's people like that that we just saw. They decided, hey, you know what? We can't get out of here. We're going to go. There's even... This is going around. I can't verify it. But there's even... They just said that there's a church of 200 people that they found that hadn't eaten in six days. And they found them and were able to give them. And, you know, this is all hearsay. So if you Google that, they're going to say, well, you know, we're unverifiable. A lot of this stuff is unverifiable because it's people with helicopters that own them going out to help these poor people. And so this is kind of how it's going to be one day because we're all going to experience natural disasters in a state like this. We're going to have to stand in line. I mean, the 20s in the 1920s experience. And so things like this, you can see that people standing in line, prescription only.

22:00 And so they go around, they show the store and it's completely empty. They said, well, I guess we didn't get our stuff today. And so that's what residents are seeing. And so I kind of want to set the understanding that this is... I know this is just a small area, but as we watch a couple more of these videos that I have here, is this... Is it good to be prepared for something like this? If we know that Matthew 24 says that these things are coming, would it be frugal, I guess, or would it be good for us to be a little prepared? And then when in time of need, someone's coming out and they're like, I need something. We can not only give them food, but maybe we can share them the gospel as well. How did we know this was going to come? I definitely... I think it's a good idea. I know a guy who had...

22:56 I know a couple people actually that have these five-gallon buckets that I think you get them at Costco or something. And I can't remember how much they cost, maybe like 80 bucks a piece. I'm just throwing numbers out there. I don't know. But supposedly one of those five-gallon buckets can last you like a couple weeks or a couple months. And it's got like rations and rice and all kinds of like dry stuff. But it would definitely be a good idea to have that. I mean, it's going to last pretty much forever. And worst case scenario, you have to eat it, you know, without it being a disaster situation. But if something like this were to happen, man, we can't depend on Walmart and grocery stores. I mean, that's why I have a garden. But we didn't really get a whole lot this year. We got some peppers and tomatoes, but there's some squash that's on its way growing. But that's...

23:52 That's the thing. We've become too dependent on technology, on convenience. If all of a sudden they were to shut down transportation, we'd all be screwed. I mean, there's nothing that we... It's not like you can just say, well, I'll get it somewhere. I mean, there's... We depend on we're going to go to the grocery store to get our food. And I don't know, man. I've heard a lot of farmers and stuff. I've actually seen video. This was a couple of years ago. Actually, I've seen a video of some guy. He was talking to his phone and he was saying that farmers were getting envelopes in the mail that were saying the government is going to buy your crop. And if you refuse what we are offering you, we're going to burn your crop down. I was like, well, who's this guy?

24:41 Who does he... You know, how can I trust him? And then it was video after video after video of the farmer themselves saying, yep, here's my letter. I got it in the mail. They open it up right in front of you on camera and they're opening it. And it's a letter from the government saying, we're going to pay you this much or we will burn your crops down. Why would the government or anyone want to shut down the ones who provide the food? It sounds like a... It makes you start a question. It sounds like a conspiracy theory, but it's not. Because I think we're seeing this type of thing happen right now. I'm going to skip a couple because I think this is a really good transition point to what you want to talk about. But I want to show you a story, two quick stories, one from a guy named Jordan and one from a guy named Jonathan. I'll make sure I'm on.

25:33 Right now I'm on resident story, resident story, Matthew 24, now story. All right. So I got to skip three ahead. Just a second here. I'm off my chart, but I think it's worth it. So let me go into this one right here. If this is not the one, I'll skip to the next. This one. Okay. We're currently on 249. Okay. So next. Here we go. Stories of survival are now being shared days after Helene wreaked havoc in North Carolina. But one Pageland man's efforts to help are now the source of controversy. He flew his own chopper on his own dime to help stranded victims. But that man says he abandoned his rescue missions after a fire official threatened to have him thrown in jail. Well, that man now wants answers.

26:22 And turn to Queen City News Chief Investigator Jody Barr to help figure out what went wrong here. This is the original post that I was reading when I decided to go up and help. It's a long post, but she's saying that her kids and family and animals are trapped. No way out, no supplies, and the only way in or out is accessible by helicopter. Limited cell service and no water since Friday morning. I thought I have a helicopter and maybe I can help. Jordan Sittum piled food and water. He got to his helicopter Saturday and headed up toward Benner Elk, the only way through a mountain gap in Lake Lure. This is the mountain valley that you would have to fly to to get to Black Mountain where we were escorting people out. This is a mountain range and this is a mountain range. The only place to fly through with bad visibility, low cloud coverage is Lake Lure.

27:17 The cries for help from people stranded without food, water or electricity hit social media soon after the flooding last Friday. My parents are stuck there, their address is ******, Benner Elk, they are in the first condo, if you receive this please give me a call back, thank you. Sittum's phone started lighting up on Saturday with people begging for help. I could hear the desperation in her voice, this is multiple phone calls I've received like this, voicemails, text messages and you could hear people desperate for help. Sittum and his son rescued four people on Saturday and spent the night in a nearby pilot's lounge. Then decided to fly again Sunday morning. I spoke with my son, which is my co-pilot, I said hey do you want to go back out and try to help today and his response was there's so many messages I don't think we can't not go help. Sittum and his son were headed up to Black Mountain.

28:10 Flight tracking shows no flight restrictions in place Saturday or Sunday morning when Sittum flew through the Lake Lure gap. But that was all about to change. The Sittum spotted an older couple waiting for help. Sittum and his son were handed in what's left of their driveway. Hey, I want you to let me get in, you step out and go out, help her in, put her bag in the back, get her strapped in, I'm going to take her down, come back, I'll take him, I'll come back and then I'll get you, okay? I originally left my son, co-pilot, on the side of the mountain, it was kind of unstable so I didn't want to put more weight in the helicopter to lift back off so I left my son with the other victim and I was just going to take one person down at the time. Sittum and his son were headed up to Black Mountain. Flight tracking shows no flight restrictions in place Saturday or Sunday morning when Sittum flew through the Lake Lure gap. You might get everything you need to know to get you there, but it's really nothing big. I circulation time and you can hear me in the video talking through with the victims and with my son what were going to do. Three minutes away Sittum spotted a group of rescue just down the river. He landed and found someone in charge. I told him my background experience of law enforcement part fighting, pilot he immediately started helping with coordination, he gave me radio frequencies to coordinate with him on.

29:13 Set up a landing area for me to come back with the other victim in the middle of the whole community, I just appreciate it knowing you do your everything. The video sort me out online on the six o'clock 25 O'clock. conversation and then blocking the road off, I was greeted by the, at that time I didn't know, but Lake Lure fire chief or assistant chief maybe, and he shut down the whole operation. So at that point, I felt like the conversation wasn't going any further. And again, he asked me to leave and I said, hey, I have no problem getting out of your area. If that's what you want us to do, we'll leave, no issue. At that point, I asked him, what was the reason I had to leave them there? And he said, again, you're interfering with my operation. I just need you to get out of the area. I said, sir, I don't know where you were trained at, but I know how my training is and I'm not going to leave personnel behind. I'm going back to get my co-pilot. He said, if you turn around and go back up the mountain, you're going to be arrested. I said, well, sir, I'm going back to get my co-pilot. I don't know what to tell you. And he said, I'm letting you know. And at that point, he waved for two law enforcement officers to come over and told me that again, if I go back up the mountain, I will be arrested. He flew the three-minute trip back, picked up his son and left the woman's husband behind. Sure, he was flooded with emotions and trying to rescue other people. And I just felt that it was best at the time to leave. So I did follow his instructions. And I had a conversation with the female victim before I left, apologized and explained. And she was standing there. She heard the whole conversation. And they were both very, very surprised, very upset. The husband, as I was leaving off of the side of the mountain at that point, separated from his wife, he was upset. I can only imagine.

30:54 Siddhaman is nearly 1,400 flight hours, turned his chopper around and headed back to South Carolina, passing people waving for help along the way. As I was actually leaving to go back to get my son, the original chief or captain that I spoke to, his crew and himself, they came back over and said, hey, man, we can't tell you to go get the victim. We can't even ask you to go get the victim. But they tell you, if you come back with the victim, we'll have you a designated landing spot. And they won't, we'll make sure they don't come over here. So there was no flight restriction when you went in? No, no flight restriction when I went in. It went in place 20 or 30 minutes after the confrontation with Mr. You feel like that was coincidental? Or do you think that that was because of what happened? I don't think it can be coincidental when there has not been one in place the day before doing rescue operations, the night of, the morning of. That took place after our altercation. I think there would have never been a TFR put in place had we not had that conversation. If I had to do it over again, I would have stopped and I would have rescued as many people until they decided they were going to arrest me. Is that insane? Right. And that's not the only story that this is. There's multiple stories like this personal helicopters that have been like, oh, no, sorry, you can't help these people. We're supposed to help these people. So you're saying. They went back, got the his son and left the people. They they ended up kind of recanting what they said. Like it sounded like there's other people in the in the in the group that weren't part of the the federal or whatever it was. I learned later through a little investigation that the TFR was set in place because there was the president that wanted to come do to look at everything and kind of do the photo op and say, hey, I've been here. Oh, my God. And so it's in there. They have to do it. They have to do it. They have to do it. They have to do it. They have to shut everything down for 30, 30 mile radius in order to have him come in. But that that's insane because people are trying to help the president. Yeah. Of the United States. Right. And this isn't a political thing. If either side would have done this, I'd be like, you guys, you're coming in and you've got to shut everything down so you can't help people. So the president can say he's been here. Come on. Come on. The president should have got on TV and said, look at this opportunity where Americans are helping Americans like and.

33:20 Interviewing this guy. Yeah. So I have been seeing some crazy stuff like this, like when there were some riots that were going on during some of like the BLM movements and stuff and a camera like a dude with a cell phone walked up and saw like 10 policemen just standing there outside the mall. And there's all kinds of people in there like writing and stealing and looting. And he was like, hey. Aren't you guys going to do anything? And they're just they would not even respond to him. And he was saying that he heard over the walkies that they were told to stand down. The cops were told to stand down when they could have went in there and stopped people from looting. Like, what's the point of the cops? Yeah, and I get it. You know, these cops just want to go home to their spouse when when the day's over. But at the same time, they're they're called to serve and protect. And this is a part of the service. Service that they have signed up for. And so it's it's very dangerous. And I don't I don't I don't want to be a cop, to be honest with you.

34:29 Oh, man. But yeah, that that statement is not to belittle the cops. It's saying what is why were they commanded to stand down? They should have been stopping the crimes. Crime stoppers. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And so there's a lot of strange stuff going on. Like over the years, I've just seen strange stuff like this and i'm like what is happening you know it's like i feel like we talk about this all the time about the pendulum effect how the world has to reach a place of utter chaos so that the antichrist can bring in order right order out of chaos and so you you start creating uh natural disasters or allowing lawlessness to happen in an age where lawlessness abounds and that's when people are going to be like we need a savior and satan is going to step out on the scenes as the cosmic savior and doing signs and wonders and miracles and people are going to believe this is our salvation it reminds me of a quote um from uh i forget where it is uh greek controversy says storm tempest war and bloodshed what is that this man-made disaster and uh natural disaster storm and tempest is natural disaster and natural disaster and natural disaster and war and bloodshed is man-made. Bloodshed just being, doesn't have to be war. It just has to be like you said, police standing down because there's some bad things that are happening. It says, in these things, Satan delights, and thus he gathers in his harvest. And so completely will men be deceived by him that they will declare these calamities are because of the commandment-keeping people.

36:14 It's because of the people that keep God's law, basically. And so this is all things that are going to happen in the future, right? Yeah. How can we get to a point where people think that it's those who obey God that all this is happening? Right, right, right, 100%. Like I said, this isn't the only thing that's happening. Here's another story. Here's another story from another man who also was a pilot and also tried to help in that area. Watch this. I really don't want to make this video, but it is literally a matter of life and death for the people of North Carolina. So my name is Jonathan Howard. I'm a member of the Florida State Guard Special Missions Unit, and I'm also up here with Aerial Recovery, a nonprofit. I came up here on Sunday with Aerial Recovery before we even got activated. We flew up here, and then we got activated, which was great.

37:13 I had my team up. I had my team up here working as well. Here's the problem. I'm going to tell you everything that's happening from the ground, what I'm actually seeing, because what they're telling you is complete bulls**t on the news, and these politicians don't have a f**king clue in their life. And I'll say this now, and I'll say it at the end of the video. The only thing I need from this video is helicopters. If I have helicopters, I can save lives. Without helicopters, I can't reach these people. What got me fired up about this was yesterday, me and my team did the rescue of that 11-day, 20-year-old baby. And all these government officials and social media, they're showing that video of that rescue and claiming that they have some government help with that. And even USA, I think it was USA Today wrote an article about it saying it was a Florida National Guard that went and got it, like with a helicopter. No, it was me, my buddy Charlie, and a civilian named Zeb with his own personal helicopter out of Wilmington, North Carolina.

38:15 Like without that civilian, that baby would be dead. And the old lady we went and rescued after that, she'd be dead, too, because she had one day left of oxygen. No one was going to go get them. Dude. It's bad enough to stop them from doing it, but now they're going to, like, take the credit for it. Right. Yeah. Which makes it look like civilians aren't doing anything and civilians aren't helping, but it's actually our trusty government. So I'm not anti-government. I don't want that to come across that way. But I think it's really interesting that we're seeing some signs of the times here that are happening. And we know that the hearts of men will just be terrible, grow cold with the power, money, you know, all this other stuff. And it will be used for the worst.

39:12 And for that reason, I'm going to plug something here real quick. And you guys are going to be very interested in this, I hope, because this isn't something I make money off of. This is something I'm trying to do as a service for everybody. I made a Facebook group, Mikey. I don't know. We actually haven't talked about this. Yeah. But I made a Facebook group. I joined it, but I... Oh, yeah. That's right. I did add you. That's right. We didn't talk about it, but I just randomly just said, yeah, Mikey's going to be a part of this. And it's called Adventist Preppers. If you go on Facebook, you can find it. I'll put a link in the bottom. It's... We're going to deal with... A lot of things that are happening. I originally was going to call it Christian Preppers because I wanted to include everybody, and I think everyone can be included. I don't care if you're Adventist or not. I'm a Seventh-day Adventist. And I... But we have what we believe is prophetic books on what's going to happen in the future, and it tells exactly what to do and how to do it and how to prepare for things like this so that we can get the message through, how we can share the gospel more effectively.

40:15 And I think it behoove everybody, to be a part of this and to see what's going on. Now, there's been a lot of TV shows kind of making fun of this Doomsday Preppers, and that's not what I'm advocating here. I'm not going to go... You don't... I'm not saying, hey, you know, go stock up on ammo. Don't go... Go get a gas mask and go get your, you know, all your Doomsday stuff. That's not the goal. The goal is to... How can we... Maybe a gas mask. I have four of them. Do you really? I love gas masks. That's cool. I collect them. Yeah, the first tattoo I ever got, which I don't advocate tattoos. I'd never get another one, but it was a gas mask because I love gas masks. Do you have one nearby? It's in my garage. I could grab it real quick while you're talking.

41:01 Yeah, yeah. Go get it. I'd like to see it. What I think is interesting, folks, is that when you join this group, and I'd advocate everyone, join the group because we're going to talk about how better to share the gospel during times of crisis. We're going to talk about what God wants, there's going to be a small time of trouble, which God says, you know, have a garden, you know, have something to prepare yourself. And there's going to be a real big time of trouble, which God says, you know, I'm going to provide for you, even if it takes ravens to come and bring you bread. Don't worry about that. But there is a specific way in order to do that. And I think that everyone needs to know exactly how and how that's done. And if you're not Adventist, join us anyway. I think it'd be interesting just to see exactly, what we have, maybe you can learn from it, maybe not. So join on Facebook, Adventist Preppers, and the, I'll put the link in the comments when we get done.

41:59 That's awesome. Are you kidding me? Where did you get this? This is the first one I ever got. It was, I was a kid. I've elected my whole life. And there was a guy who moved, he was in the military. He moved away from my neighbor, my cousin's neighbor, and me, and my cousin raided his storage unit. And this was in there. And I was like, so I've had this since, I don't know, fourth grade or something. Wow. I ordered these. This, I love these with a canister. It looks so post-apocalyptic. It's crazy. There's actually, there's so much humidity here that there's like mold growing on these. I need to clean it off. But that was a black one. This is, this is a gray one. Very cool.

42:53 And then I have two more somewhere, but they weren't in the same bag, but. Oh, very neat. I always thought about, does it fit? Yeah. There you go. And does that canister actually work? Yeah. That's so cool, dude. I have, I've liked the look of that. I don't have one, but I thought it would be, I mean, you don't know what's going to happen. They say pestilence is going to be in the air at the end of time. And there's going to be, there's going to be, I've thought about, you know, getting a radiation suit. I've actually looked it up just to, you know, just thought if something does bomb this thing over here, can I get my family safely out of my house and maybe I could help other people as well? I don't know. And so there's things you think about and how can you better have solar when there's nothing available or how, or energy?

43:50 So you can use solar or you can use wind power or you can use different things. There's going to be times that we're going to need stuff and then we're going to need to provide for other people. And I think it's good to just know a little bit about this stuff. There's a quote someone sent me. I'm going to bring it up in the, in the Adventist Preppers group real quick. It was very interesting to me. I posted there just the other day. It's called, go in there so I can actually look at the quote. This is the quote. It says, where is it? It's going to make me a liar. Christians should be preparing for what is soon to break upon the world as a overwhelming surprise.

44:37 And this preparation, they should be making a diligent study of the word of God and striving to conform to its precepts. I think that's huge. Yeah. And there's another one I was looking for. What do you think about that? Will I try to find this? Yeah. I mean, that's, that's a huge preparation is to be in the word of God. Like this is a message that I have to preach to myself as well. You know, me and my wife, we try to get up every morning and have worship together and she'll start with prayer. And then I, I pray and it usually goes on for 30, 40 minutes. You just, you start thinking and you start remembering all the things. There's so much to pray about. I mean, there's family members that are lost. There's needs that we have and you just keep praying and praying.

45:25 And then we read a chapter in the Bible and we're going through it. She actually started before I did, but we're in Romans, I think now. And so she's actually read from Genesis to Romans right now. And she's been highlighting, you know, almost, you know, when she's reading a chapter, anything that stands out, she'll highlight it or circle it or star. And so you can just really see the progress she's made. But it's so important. I mean, the Bible talks about that. We're going to be brought before Kings and stuff. And that God's going to give us the right words to say, he's going to bring back to our remembrance, but you can't remember something that you've never heard or read, right? So we have to put the word of God in our mind and this mind, I mean, things can, it's, it is a computer. And sometimes you think you can't remember something. And then all of a sudden it's bam, it comes back to you. Yeah. Where, and that's, that's what God can do if it's in there, but we ha it's our responsibility to get in God's word, to put it in the computer so that he can bring it back when we need it.

46:30 100% promise. Yes. Here's another quote. I thought was very interesting. This is from, I don't know what LT is, but it's a 12 LTMS manuscript. 10 1997 paragraph 22. Christ has told us that. We will have reproach if persecution for the truth sake is to come. It is important that every line of work become familiar to us. What? It is important that every line of work become familiar to us. If persecution comes for the truth sake. Why? Because that she says that we may and our families may not suffer through lack of knowledge. We can and should have tact and knowledge.

47:21 In trades, in building, in planting, in sewing, a knowledge of how to cultivate the land will make rough places much smoother. The knowledge will be counted a great blessing even by our enemies. So, so LTMS is letters and manuscripts. Oh, thank you. Thank you. So these are the quotes that people are bringing out. Go ahead. Yeah, I was just going to say, I was just going to, basically restate what was said. We need to start learning some skills because like I said, we've become too dependent on the grocery store and stuff. And what's awesome for those married people is, you know, hopefully we don't get split apart, but you know, you can do the more manly things and women can do the more womenly things like sewing and cooking and men can cut logs and build all those things that take a lot of muscle.

48:21 And together, we can, you know, take care of each other. Absolutely. And friends. Absolutely. Problems are coming. I mean, Matthew 24 says that I want to read a little bit Matthew 24, if you don't mind, because this is a Christian podcast, but I lost it. Where did it go? Oh, here's my, my, my tab. Matthew 24 says that there will be, uh, uh, earthquakes, in various places. That's a Matthew 24, seven nations will rise against nation, the kingdom against kingdom, and it will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these things are the beginning of pains. So I, I think, um, we will see some major, major stuff happening here pretty soon.

49:08 In fact, it doesn't just say earthquakes. It says floods. It's going to be just like, um, uh, in the days of Noah, for in the days of Noah, before the flood, people are eating and drinking and marrying and giving him marriage. Um, until the day Noah entered the ark, and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the son of man. Kind of surprise, surprise. Um, I wanted to give a real shout out before I, I jump it. I give it to you, Matthew, um, Mike, Mikey, sorry, called Matthew. Um, Michelle Brown says, uh, eyes, eye opening show tonight. Thank you. Oh, it's not over yet. Wait, wait, wait for when we start talking about nuclear weapons. Anyway, what are you going to say? Oh, we're going to say anything, but there is a site that I found one time. I'm trying to look it up right now. It might be called earthquake track, but there's a site that you can look at a worldwide map and see like any range of time, how many earthquakes or so I'm looking at right now.

50:11 It says there have been, uh, 112 earthquakes in the past 24 hours, dude, nine or 793, 93 earthquakes in the past seven days, 3,946 earthquakes in the past 30 days. This is on a worldwide scale, but earthquakes in diverse places, you know, there used to be a time when it was like, oh yeah, uh, don't you don't live in California. They have a lot of earthquakes. Well, now they happen. I mean, they've happened in Tennessee. My dad one time, uh, woke up. He lives in Trenton, Georgia, which is 30 minutes from me here in Tennessee. And he woke up at like 3 00 AM. And heard a something and then felt something. And I saw on Facebook, all these people saying, did you guys feel the earthquake last night?

50:59 And I was like in Tennessee, you know, what in the world, but earthquakes in diverse places, it's happening. Prophecy is being fulfilled. It's happening right now. And so people were asking in the chat, what's the name of the group? What's the name of the group? Uh, Adventist Press Preppers, P-R-E-P-P-E-R-S. Um, is the group. I'm going to put a link to it. I don't have it right now. If you want to make the link to it, I think it's, I think it's facebook.com slash groups. Slash Christian Preppers. I'm going to change that to Adventist Preppers, I think, um, because there's a lot of stuff shared in there that are very specific to my faith. And so I wanted to, uh, kind of, uh, not, I want to set, set the tone here. This is not going to be a surprise. We're going to talk about stuff that, um, is very, very specific to Seventh-day. Adventist in that group. But anyway, that's not the end of the show.

51:55 We, we're only halfway through some of these stuff and I skipped a bunch too, but, um, let me go back to my, my show notes real quick, Mikey, and see what, what we're talking about here. Uh, we talked about, should we be self-sufficient, uh, plug the Facebook group. Um, and that's not just, that's not all the calamities. Uh, so the, the videos I skipped were, uh, a residence talking about what they've seen and I'm just going to talk about it here. They said, um, the, the sheriff of the town says, hey, they, and I'm not advocating for this, but they said, the sheriff said, bring a gun and make sure your safety's off because he says the amount of people that are looting right now is insane. People are desperate. And so I, I, I personally, uh, don't believe that, um, I, I believe that everyone should be able to own a weapon, but me personally, it would be too much of a, uh, temptation to, to do something very bad.

52:54 But I, I do believe in the freedom to own guns because I just think it's bad when the government says nobody can have guns. You never want that to happen, but I personally don't own one. The, um, then I don't, I don't mind anybody that does. I mean, that's not, that's just, I, I, it's very difficult to make the decision. Hey, you want to take a life of someone that, that could potentially hear the goodness of Jesus Christ someday, even after, they've been in prison? That's, that's a, that's a big decision. And so anyway, I, I hope I never have to make that decision. The, the, what I think is interesting though, is that, uh, they said that, um, there is more than just this calamities that are happening right now. And this is just the ones that we see on the news. Notice we didn't hear much about Florida.

53:42 They got devastated, but, and we heard mostly about North Carolina, but, um, there are calamities all over. The place like this potential of nuclear calamities. I'm going to jump into this, this side of the show real quick. Is there anything you wanted to say about the natural disasters before I jump, jump that way? No, I was just thinking about what you were saying about people being desperate and having a gun. And I was thinking of some of the quotes that Ellen White said, I was looking it up. I can't find it, but I've, I've heard that she mentions a time that's going to be. So desperate that people are going to be eating their own children. I know that happened happen in the past too. Yeah. I know that's happened in the past and I, oh my goodness.

54:29 I couldn't, couldn't even fathom that, but I, I've often wondered what, what are people going to do with their pets? And, uh, yeah, I, uh, I don't, I don't even want to know, but, um, we have three dogs that they, they are children. So that's, that's, uh, right. That's really difficult, but, um, more calamities are coming. The government, uh, and, and is focused. And what are they focused on right now? Are they focused on trying to help you or are they focused on other things? Is it going to be like the DMV when, when trying to help its citizens or is it going to, it's, it's, it's actually going to get out there and do something about it. I, I think, um, we're going to see a lot of this stuff. And, um, one of the things that, um, they will get sidetracked on is whether or not they're elected like this. Uh, Kamala Harris and her campaign team will hope that this is a glimpse into a presidential future.

55:25 The democratic party candidate as vice president meeting Ukraine's president Zelensky. He was here to outline his plan for victory over Russia, but she chose to frame the stakes a different way. Ukraine's fate. If Donald Trump was to win in November, there are some in my country who would instead force Ukraine to give up large parts of its sovereign, territory. These proposals are the same of those of Putin. A little earlier, Zelensky had been with the outgoing president, Biden, with a last ditch call for permission to use Western missiles deep inside Russia. I raced with President Biden, the plan of victory. Today, we are preparing to discard the details to stress on the plan. That's exactly what we're going to discuss today. Now, the Ukraine, how they're going to prevail. Prevail in this conflict.

56:21 But behind the smiles and the assurance of more weapons, the American president would not budge on striking Russia. Vladimir Zelensky was back in Washington. Mr. President, can you bring it into this wall? Of course we have to. With a plan for victory, which hinges on the use of long-range missiles. It was to Capitol Hill first and the top Republican and Democratic party leaders. And where there has been political disagreement, at the top of both, both parties here, at least they understand now Zelensky's plea. His number one request was to have more permissive use of long-range missiles to hit legitimate military targets. He believes if he could shut down those Russian air bases and missile bases that are attacking his country, that would give him leverage to get Putin to the table. I believe that too. The problem is Putin announcing changes.

57:18 To Russia's nuclear doctrine, the warning that any use of long-range missiles inside Russia would effectively be a declaration of war by the West. If some think this is a bluff, well, President Biden remains characteristically cautious. The other problem for Zelensky is American politics. He knows that Donald Trump could well win in November and that he has his own peace plan for Ukraine. A deal could have been made if we had a competent president, instead of a president that egged it all out. It involves freezing the conflict along the current front line and giving land to Russia. Ukraine's future and its geography is to a huge extent dependent on what happens here in November. Mark Stone, Sky News in Washington. So I don't say that to make any political statement at all, because you can see both parties on either side lobbying to use this war as a method to get elected.

58:15 And they're both... They're both... Wrongly focused, according to my opinion. And I think it's... It's what's kind of happening right now. We're sending a lot of money over there to Ukraine. This, again, isn't a political statement. It's just what's happening. And we need to focus on what's going on here. There's lots happening here that I believe we should be taking care of. Yeah, for sure. Is America involved in this war at all? Not directly. They are sending things over. They are sending things over to Ukraine and they're, which... So Russia has said, according to what I've researched over this last couple of weeks, because I really don't keep a tally on this. I had another, a friend of mine in the Discord that he knew a lot more about this than I did, but unfortunately he couldn't make it tonight.

59:05 But he said that a lot of what's going on right now is that America is funding the war. It's a proxy war, meaning that they're giving stuff to them so that they can fight it. They don't have the same military assets as America does. America spends a lot of money on military assets. They're giving it to Russia to try to... Not to Russia, right? No, no, sorry. Yeah, thank you for catching me. Ukraine to fight Russia. And so it's causing Russia to be very angry with the U.S. Oh, man. So, yeah, just more heat on us and... We just see the wars and the rumors of wars and all this nuclear stuff that's happening. And Russia, I mean, America thinks that Russia is, it's not a big deal, you know, because, you know, something might happen if Russia keeps, because Russia's been saying over and over again, we're going to do, we're going to use our nuclear weapons if you guys don't stop.

1:00:10 We're going to do something bad if you guys don't stop. What I find fascinating about this, tying this whole thing into what we normally talk about, last day spiritualism, we have something coming up here. And according to a lot of occult writings and this phenomenon, something is supposed to be appearing in the next, I'd say within five years. I mean, people have said next year, people have said... Yeah, 2025 is a big deal. Yeah, and so I don't know, I don't know if that's true. The devil can't make up dates, really. He's not knowledgeable. But it has been stated in a lot of the, a lot of the... the ufology books that these things, which we know are fallen angels, will start appearing once nuclear threat is a big deal. And it's not a big deal yet. So I wonder if these two things are tied together.

1:01:05 That's what my theory is. I think something is going to happen big and these things are going to go, okay, now it's our turn to enter the picture as the savior of things. And so these people like us as we try to tell them what to do. I don't know. I know this is super conspiratorial. And I don't know if you'll buy into it either, but I think I mentioned it like once before, but I've been on the rabbit hole a lot and over the years. And I have heard that even this whole nuclear war thing is literally just fear propaganda, that there are no such thing as nuclear bombs. There are, there are big bombs, Hiroshima and atom bombs and things like that. But nuclear bombs bombs that can, you know, we we've been told that there's a bomb, you know, the president could touch the button, push the button and it could blow up the world, the whole world or the world four times over and all this stuff.

1:02:00 This is to bring the, the world into fear because like nine 11, that was isolated. That was just New York, you know, even though I believe there was a big agenda to all that, that was isolated. Then you go to, well, you know, you've got Ukraine. Well, that's over there. We, they need something that's going to affect everyone. That's where climate change comes in. We got, you know, we're 10 seconds to midnight. We got seven years left and we're, our grandkids aren't going to have an earth. So you got climate change. You have nuclear threat. It's going to destroy the whole world. Is it even true? I seen a guy who is literally, he would go place to place and take a spot. A spoon and dig it in some nuclear powder, put it in his mouth and use a Geiger meter on it.

1:02:51 And it would go dead at it. And he swallows it. And he says, this stuff is harmless. And that, and he was proving that nuclear stuff was not even like, what is his name? I want to look this guy up to be died early. Yeah. Look up scientists eats nuclear. I looked it up a lot. Yeah. Let me see real quick. Um, so I don't know if anybody else in the chat has been down that road, but yeah, you, you see like, okay, so North Korea marching and they got these big missiles and they're like all marching in formation for all we know, that thing is a silent emptied out hollow silo. And it's all fear propaganda. Like we got this giant missile. What if the deception, dude, that's what war is all about. Deception. They would go out there and make inflatable tanks. And you can look at videos of black and white day. That is true. Soldiers.

1:03:45 Yeah. Pushing it. I can't remember what they called it. Ghost, ghost soldiers or some phantom soldiers. It was hilarious because everything was wooden and they made wooden bombs. And you know what the Americans did? This was, Oh, this is such a funny story. The Americans, um, when they saw, I forget which country it was. I'm going to say Russia just for the story shake, but they, they, uh, they saw that they were making all these, uh, uh, uh, fake, um, fake soldiers, fake. And it was like just a, a whole land of them. And so what they did, could you not, this is what happened. America made a wooden bomb and dropped it on that. Wow. And just like scared to like, ah, and then everybody was like afraid to touch it because it didn't blow up. If you touch it, they, they made a wooden bomb to say, okay, if you make a wooden army, we're going to make a wooden bomb and drop it on it.

1:04:37 So they, that's like, uh, trolling a man, Trojan horse, deception has been a huge part of war forever. And we don't know if North Korea has a nuclear bomb just because they're walking around with this huge missile, you know, in a parade. We don't know if anyone does. There's no proof that we can have, uh, technology to blow up the world. This guy's name was Galen, G-A-L-E-N Winsor, a nuclear physicist, ate uranium in the 1980s. Uh, in the 1980s, Winsor served in the Navy during World War II and helped design and operate the first nuclear power plant. So he designed the first, he helped design the first nuclear power plant and he was going place to place on video eating uranium.

1:05:27 I'm going to look that up. That's fascinating. I, I've never heard that before, but, but let's take it just, let's take it as if, um, these things are real because I, I'm, I'm not convinced they're not yet, but I'm going to look into that for sure. But I, I want to see. Well, either way, it's, it plays into the whole bringing the world to a place of desperation. Like we need help. Whether we, whether it's true or not, whether climate change is true or not, I don't even believe in that. Whether nuclear is true or not, the world thinks we need help because this world is coming to an end. One way or another, nuclear, climate change, UFOs, whatever it is, asteroids. We've been told the asteroids coming so close, it's going to hit earth and all that stuff. Something's happening. Yeah. So this is, this is what would happen according to what people believe. Um, and I don't agree with everything in this video, uh, but this is what would happen if there was a nuclear threat.

1:06:18 Let's, let's just see what would happen according to, you know, since we watched, uh, the, the politicians up there talking about it. Well, what do they actually believe about this? What, what, what, what was going to happen? Watch this. Ben Hodges served as the commanding director of the U.S. Air Force. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, vieuy General at the United States Army Europe. He's an expert on Ukraine. … Uh, I don't wanna know about Ukraine. Let's, let's skip ahead. What would happen if there was a full-scale nuclear war between Russia and the United States? Based on non-classified data, the aftermath might go something like this. When one side launches nuclear missiles, the other side detects them and fires back before impact.

1:07:08 U.S. submarine-launched 190 0000 00什麼 ballistic missiles from west of Norway start striking Russia after about 10 minutes, and Russian ones from north of Canada start hitting the U.S. a few minutes later. The very first strikes are high-altitude EMP attacks, frying electronics and power grids, by creating an electromagnetic pulse of tens of thousands of volts per meter. The next strikes target command and control, as well as nuclear launch facilities. Land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles take about half an hour to arrive. Major cities are targeted, both because they contain military facilities, and to stymie the enemy's post-war recovery. Some cruise missiles take hours to reach their target. Each impact creates a fireball about as hot as the core of the sun, followed by a radioactive mushroom cloud. These intense explosions vaporize people nearby, and cause fires and blindness, as they move further away.

1:08:11 The fireball expansion then causes a blast wave that damages buildings, crushing nearby ones. The United Kingdom and France have nuclear capabilities, and are obliged by NATO's Article 5 to defend the U.S. So, Russia hits them too. Firestorms engulf many cities, where storm-level winds fan the flames, igniting anything that can burn, melting glass and some metals, turning asphalt into flammable hot liquid. But the explosions, the electromagnetic pulse, and the radioactivity aren't the worst part. Nuclear winter is, caused by the black carbon smoke from the nuclear firestorms. The Hiroshima atomic bomb caused such a firestorm. But today's hydrogen bombs are much more powerful. A large city like Moscow, with almost 50 times more people, can create much more smoke.

1:09:05 And a firestorm sends plumes of black smoke up into the stratosphere, far above any rain clouds that would otherwise wash out the smoke. This black smoke gets heated by sunlight, lofting it like a hot air balloon for up to a decade. High-altitude jet streams are so fast that it takes only a few days for the smoke to spread across much of the northern hemisphere. In the meantime, Earth gets freezing cold, even during the summer. With farmland in Kansas, cooling by about 20 degrees centigrade, or 40 degrees Fahrenheit. And other regions cooling almost twice as much. A recent scientific paper estimates that over 5 billion people could starve to death, including around 99% of those in the United States, Europe, Russia, and China.

1:09:59 We obviously don't know how many people will survive a nuclear war. But if it's even remotely possible, as bad as scientists think, then it has no winners, merely losers. Oh, I see what you did there. Winters. Winners. Okay. So I want to just talk about the elephant in the room real quick. I know, Mikey, you don't believe in the ball earth theory. And I do. But I do believe it's a globe earth. And I don't want to talk about it on this show, because I think we're going a different direction right now. I want to. I want to talk about nuclear weapons. I want to talk about natural disasters. I want to bring it back to the Bible. Because it is an interesting theory. Mikey and I have, offline, talked about this quite a bit. But we've decided to put our differences aside for the sake of talking about the Bible.

1:10:48 And... So what does that have to do with... So that thing, I don't know if you can pull it in, but that was like the old black and white footage of the atomic bomb thing. Oh, that's crazy. A lot of it, a lot of it, people have, you've seen it, like the bus, like it kind of like, they'll go this way, and then they'll pull back this way. But there's something interesting about that footage. Oh, I know where you're going. Yeah, I think Joe Rogan has talked about this. Like, how did the camera stay still? Exactly. There's cameras inside the homes with mannequins, and they're just like, and all this stuff. And, yeah, very interesting. The camera can withstand something that a house can't even withstand. Oh, I know. All I know is the cameraman always lives. That's right. Yeah.

1:11:41 Somebody's got to document it. Mikey. So Joe Rogan talked about that. Yeah, yeah. Look it up. He talks a little bit about it. I mean, Joe, he goes into everything. He'll dig into the rabbit hole. I mean, he's got the- He was a moon landing denier, and then he was like, ah, it'd be harder to fake it than it would be to do it. And now he's, I think he's back on denying it. So I don't know. I don't know what to think about Joe sometimes. He's got the third eye thing going and the UFO above his logo. Yeah, he does. But, I think, I think this is interesting because it talked about EMP. Let's talk about EMP for a second. What is that? And what does it have to do with a nuclear weapon? I, this is me researching for this show. Let's go down that rabbit hole and understand this better because if nuclear weapons are something that we need to be concerned about, not concerned as a Christian, but concerned as someone that is more prepared to spread the gospel, what is an EMP and how would that change life as it is?

1:12:42 I want to dig into that real quick. Watch this. With less than two months to go until election day and with people across the whole country now frantically trying to decide who to vote for as well as whether or not cats and dogs are being eaten in Ohio, very important questions. Well, there's a threat that's not being discussed at all, which cuts right to the point that we're going to talk about in this episode. We're going to talk about the threat of an EMP right across party lines. That's because regardless of whether there's a Democrat or a Republican in charge, Americans face the real threat of a hostile foreign actor like Russia, Iran, North Korea, China, and a handful of others using what's known as an EMP attack to destroy our technological advantages. In case you've never heard of it before, an EMP attack, otherwise known as an electromagnetic pulse attack, is one of the most deadly threats facing our country. The way that it works is that a nuclear weapon can be detonated in the stratosphere above the United States.

1:13:38 This type of an explosion, it would not kill anybody directly, but instead, what it would do is cripple the entirety of our electrical grid, setting us back 100 years in the blink of an eye. At its essence, a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse is achieved when you have a nuclear warhead get detonated anywhere between 20 to 250 miles above the surface of the Earth. This can be achieved by multiple ways. You can strap a bomb to a satellite or onto a missile or even onto a spy balloon. The key is just to make sure that the nuke is high up in the air enough right above the target that you want to take out. And notably, these bombs, they don't need to contain a huge nuclear yield in order to generate a large EMP. Even a payload as small as, let's say, 10 kilotons can produce large enough electromagnetic pulses to critically disrupt the U.S. electrical grid. Pause it right there just for a second. 10 kilotons, I think, is about the same, if not half as much, as it was for one of the Japanese nukes.

1:14:42 And so that's interesting. And if this is true, I'm going to... Mikey, talking specifically to you... Well, I do believe the EMP... Oh, yeah? Okay. It is interesting because we're going to come up with some proof that this actually could happen in this next video. But I want to continue with this one as he explains with... And by the way, this guy right here, he's part of a newspaper that is actually a heavily religious newspaper, but he's... The Epoch Times? Yeah, the Epoch Times. I don't know what to think about it yet, so I'm not saying that... But he does bring out a lot of interesting topics, and I kind of follow what he says just out of curiosity. Anyway, anyway, let's follow along with what he's saying. Now, one thing that's relevant to know about nukes when discussing EMPs is that besides the destructive fireball that we usually see in movies, the one that destroys everything in a given path, a side effect of a nuclear explosion is the release of an intense pulse of electromagnetic radiation that covers everything in the line of sight from the epicenter of the actual explosion.

1:15:45 And so here's a map to give you an idea of what this looks like in practice. If a nuclear warhead was detonated about 18 miles above the surface of the Earth, it would generate an EMP that would cover several states. At 62 miles an hour, about 18 miles above the Earth, it would cover several more states. At 125 miles, it would cover almost the entirety of the U.S. And at 250 miles, it would cover not only the entirety of the continental United States, but also a giant part of Canada as well as Mexico. Now, what's interesting to note is that unlike a typical nuclear attack, an EMP attack, it doesn't really have the associated physical destruction. You're not going to see buildings get toppled over or cars melted to the ground or things like that. You're going to see an EMP attack or something like that. But what you will experience is that all of your electronic devices immediately stop working as the electromagnetic pulse waves completely overload and fry the circuits.

1:16:39 And so basically, everything, elevators, cell phones, electronic billboards, the ATM, your electronic stove, the microwave, everything shuts down. Everything that has a computer, basically, a micro circuit electronic. And this isn't just EMPs. This isn't just EMPs. This isn't just EMPs. This can happen from solar flares, too. There's actually just recently a news article that came out that we've seen the biggest solar flare and expect to see malfunctions in your electronics. This happened in the 1800s. Just having those deep, dot, dot, dot, deep, deep, deep, deep things, you know, the Morse code, they said it went over the lines and it fried things. Lightning, electricity was going everywhere because of the solar storm, you know, and that's what's happening in the world right now.

1:17:34 Yeah, because all of our cars are now computers, that's the majority of cars aren't going to work. There's a certain kind of vehicle that the military used, and it was completely, like, it would work even with, man, I wish I remember what it was called. It was like this Jeep-looking thing, like a big Hummer almost, and it ran every where and everything was running the car is like boring, not free, like not computerized at all. The military says that they've everything that they have, all their military technology is EMP ready and they're not going to have any problems with that. I don't know, I don't know, why don't we Faraday Cage ever heard of that, yeah, you know he'd like to have more but he he doesn't have a lot of money to invest in this stuff but he's got it so we're just in case an emp does go off uh these things should be safe well that's cool but that's that's the thing like i don't know how how it works exactly like is it just the initial boom fries your your electronics or is there like a certain time period that lasts where it's just like nothing works as soon as you see the blast the only reason i know this is because i was doing the research and they they actually have a recording as they were recording this stuff you know with the film back in the 50s that has been declassified they say that um the guy the guy that was talking about this says you will hear and you will see a little bit of static as soon as the bomb goes off and if you listen to it you hear it go you hear you see the the blast it kind of has this busy stuff that happens on the screen and then you hear like that that's the emp sound the sound of this um this static that happens it wasn't enough for it to harm the video in that instance but they say it's immediate and it's faster or just as fast as the speed of light so if you had something in a container that was faraday or whatever uh it would just have to be in there when the bomb went off but then after that it should be able to work right should be yeah that's what i hear but they this has actually happened before in hawaii they they were testing some of these nuke stuff off the coast and um and in hawaii uh they had uh damage from the emp from the blast watch this although at this point you might be asking the obvious question how do we actually know this if an emp attack has never been done before how do we know how it actually works well the answer is rather simple the u.s has been running these tests you see the knowledge that we have about these emp attacks date back to 1962 when the u.s.

1:20:27 was conducting nuclear experiments off of the coast of hawaii at that time officials within the defense sector of the u.s federal government they had this worry that if the soviet union were to detonate a nuclear bomb in the space above the united states it could damage or even destroy our intercontinental ballistic missiles and so to face this threat the u.s federal government they authorized and they conducted something known as project fishbowl where they set up a series of these high altitude nuclear weapons tests to find out for themselves what actually happens when nuclear weapons are detonated in space and one of those tests was called starfish prime and it was during the starfish prime experiment that the u.s learned about the dangers of an emp attack for the very first time what happened was that a nuclear device was set off at an altitude of 250 miles above johnston island over in the pacific ocean which was high enough in the air and far away enough from mainland hawaii that the scientists conducting the test assumed that it was all safe but the experiment proved otherwise because over in hawaii which is about 900 miles away from the blast well you had street lights that began to fail circuit breakers were tripped you had alarms that were triggered and a telecommunication relay was damaged additionally going in the other direction several u.s satellites that were in orbit at that particular time they were damaged by the resulting emp from this nuclear blast and it was at that moment that these nuclear scientists they realized that this was a potential danger but the u.s was not alone in this testing because starting in october of that very same year in 1962 the russians also detonated several nuclear explosions over kazakhstan in order to calculate the impact of an emp blast on the electrical grid the soviets they eventually wound up conducting seven of these nuclear experiments each time changing up the height of the blast as well as the payload in the actual bomb in order to assess the difference in damage when you change up those two variables now the results of their experiments are still largely classified but back in the year 1990 during peace agreements between russia and america some of the findings were handed over to u.s scientists and according to what the russians revealed to americans and then subsequently what the american scientists revealed to the public the emp blast over in kazakhstan they destroyed transformers they destroyed generators entire communication systems switchboards and almost all electronic devices in a given locality it's interesting isn't that yeah um makes me wonder what kind of damage was being done to those people this was all happening over hawaii this was uh but yeah the the initial ones the u.s was testing is in hawaii but the ones they they did research on in the how what was it called before russia uh they were testing it as well and so during peace talks they handed some of the papers over of their testing they found out that all this stuff was even even worse if they did certain things to their to their weapons and so um i mean the fact that they they've been planning this and are more advanced at least at that time uh and and we're thinking about using it on us what what else you know i mean that that's something that would take out our electrical system and that's that's everything that's pumping gas that's um i don't mean to be a fear monger here but you know this is just stuff you think about real threat yeah and so um a lot of stuff would go down and i think it's going to and we're told in spirit of prophecy that um a lot of things a lot of things are are worse when spoken about than they actually are but in this instant things that will happen with um spiritual entities with um satan appearing as as god this is going to be a bigger deal than you can even fathom and it will cause major problems one thing i really think that is important for us to do which i need to do this myself is learn to identify edible plants um because you might not have a garden but if you're out and about i mean things do grow that are edible so there's you know there are books like that in fact if there's anybody out there that knows another christian presenter that talks about edible food that talks about um you know being better prepared for something that would come in the future, I'm interested in interviewing them. I would like to talk to them and maybe present them on the channel. Email me, bradley at strangenormal.org,

1:25:07 or write a comment, and I'll get back to you in the comment on this video. Because this is something that interests me, this is something I think that should interest everybody, is how can we be better prepared as a group of people to spread the gospel? But has this thing, this EMP stuff and all this other stuff, is this something currently being discussed by Russia, or has this been discussed by Russia in the past? Unless you have something else to say, I want to answer that question. No, yeah, I'm sure it has been. But I was going to say, you know, this is a big deal for... When you understand the truth about the rapture and all that kind of stuff, there's probably a lot of people that are just like, you know what? I'm not going to be here when times get hard. Guess what? All around the world, Christians are living in very hard times. Like, try to go to North Korea as a Christian and find out what happens. I mean, why do we think as Americans, like, Christ is just waiting to rapture us when it comes to America? It's really not a thing. Christ is returning at the last trumpet. There are seven trumpets that are pouring out plagues upon the earth. So, you know, the second coming is the rapture, and we will be here for hard times. So it is important to prepare. I mean, it's not just some conspiracy theory or fear-mongering. It's Bible prophecy. Matthew 24 identifies the ark and the big flood as a type of what will happen the last day.

1:26:48 and there was no second chance for those people it was pleading pleading pleading you know this is this is the way this is how you were saved if you don't come this way you will not make it and the ark was shut rain fell and everyone didn't survive there wasn't like rain fell and the door came open again and then everyone got on the boat and was saved so there wasn't seven years it was noah's family was saved and the wicked were destroyed in the same moment and it says as in the days of noah so shall also be the coming of the son of man be that there will be people eating and drinking given a marriage and the flood came and took them all away well that taking away is the destruction right and so it says that there'll be one in the you know two men in a field one will be taken which means destroyed and the other will be left meaning remaining alive we're going to be caught up but it's it happens at the same time destruction and taken or destruction and being left alive happens at the same time it's not seven years later they were destroyed yeah yeah in that specific verse you don't want to be taken in that way you want to be raptured but not taken but that's something um anyway yeah i i there's a whole bible study on that that i think i'll put in the comments here if anybody wants to read into it further because it's a really interesting one um and and leave a comment if you if that's your understanding or if that's not your understanding i want to hear from you i'll send that bible study to you uh this is this is the next thing talking about russia and answering that question this is not speculation for instance in may of 1999 during the nato bombing campaign against yugoslavia there was a meeting held in austria between high-ranking members of the russian parliament and a u.s congressional delegation and while discussing the war in yugoslavia the russian delegation was not involved in the war they raised the specter of an emp attack against america in a declassified report that you can see up on your screen here's what congressman roscoe barlay recalled was said during that meeting by his russian counterpart quote at one point vladimir lukin looked up he said if we really wanted to hurt you with no fear of retaliation we would launch an slbm submarine launch ballistic missile from the ocean detonate a nuclear weapon high above your country and shut down your power grid and your communications for six months or so and alexander shabanov the handsome blonde communist smiled and said and if one weapon wouldn't do it we have some spares like about 10 000 i think this kind of puts in context the threat that we face wow six months man we would be we could not survive six months without electricity no your fridge your all communication at all your car i mean it's good to have just a little bit of water on hand it's good to have a little bit of food on hand i think today when when you hear from spirit of prophecy that you know don't be prepared for for the major things which i believe she's specifically talking about the the last bit of the time of trouble um this was coming from a woman that that had a year's worth of food and had a hundred or more fruit trees that would do canning and would have a whole you know whole room full of canned goods that she would cycle out today things are different i mean we we don't live two weeks without going to the grocery store and so i i think it's it's dangerous if you if you uh think that that you're going to survive when we've been clearly said clearly told that you need to have a little bit of a garden you need to be able to know how to cultivate your own food i agree exactly we you know and there's been so much propaganda and stuff about preppers they're they're crazy you know like like those doomsdayers they yeah they show them on tv but they act like they show them in a negative light um so prep is is you know to be weird and crazy yeah yeah and you should uh you shouldn't be like these people that you know all they do is think about doomsday you know i mean i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't think i don't think anybody should just think about doom and gloom all the time but at the same time i think it's it's healthy to try to analyze every situation and understand what's what's around you and that we're in a spiritual war that wants uh nothing to do

1:31:30 with humanity at least satanic angels the fallen angels want hate humanity we're in the image of god and that's who they hate the most so yeah we know that he wants to see kill and destroy there is there's one more clip i was going to show but i'll just tell you that the gist of it it's uh russia basically says uh i mean russia is basically sharing um this technology with north korea they've also shared the technology with china that's how china got nuclear weaponry they didn't create it themselves it was shared from russia and that's how new north korea got their their weapons it was shared from russia so or what used to be allies yeah you know they're dictatorships i guess i don't know a lot about politics and i don't care to but uh along the short of it is that um they don't like america and there's some probably some good reasons why but um along the short is that um this technology's come from russia and uh we are still ahead quite a bit but at the same time we're we've got three wars coming up on our heels america does we got we got russia because of ukraine we've got russia because of ukraine we've got russia because of china because of taiwan and we and they're just waiting they're just watching waiting for the perfect time to do that and then um you've either got israel or um you know iran and all that stuff that's going down right there and so it's a it's a very interesting time to live mikey and i think that nothing we can do but rely on god is and and do what he says is uh is what we can do so i think it's very very very important that we would be on the ground and we're going to be on the ground on our knees we think about this stuff and that we pray that we're giving inspiration and maybe join the facebook group so that we can all learn from each other amen yeah i was thinking when you said that they're just watching and waiting for the right time it made me think of uh how babylon was taken over i think it was babylon where they waited till yeah yeah it was when um the handwriting on the wall oh yeah they were all just celebrating like we're babylon we're unconquerable let's get drunk break out the uh the golden vessels the the holy sacred vessels that we stole from the Israelites and let's drink out of them and the handwriting was on the wall and who was it uh i guess it was the medes and the persians or the medes or the persians because they conquered babylon but they realized that they were all in there drunk and partying and they were sneaking in they were they lowered the water they they yeah the there was a a river running right through babylon that made babylon like air conditioned it like blew wind in and it irrigated their hanging gardens and all this stuff but the enemy like irrigated the river and it was it was making the river low enough where they could just march right under the the gate there was gates that were on either end of the walls where the river was going through but it was low enough that they could march right under there and they just went right inside and i don't even think they just came in firing i think they were kind of mingling in with the society and like taking over slowly or something i'm not sure about that actually yeah man and i just think about americans you know we're just so like yep gonna go to work today and hit the bar afterwards and you know we're just not paying attention we we don't prepare we don't we're not looking for the signs that you know like in the days of noah eating and drinking marrying giving a marriage just living life as normal and that's when that's gonna happen yeah and so on a um even though this is a a kind of a a doomsday show i think it's it's good to uh even end on a good note because i think um ultimately studying your bible reading the word of god god is gonna have our back he's got our back more than more than we even realize and i think it's important that um if there's anything left we can trust it is this word of god and so if you guys aren't in the word of god every day be in the word of god every day read it because there's a lot of great information that like you said mikey if you don't put it in there in the computer god's not going to be able to pull it out can't come back you know there were people who were set on fire for not bowing to the papacy and they went out singing hymnals they were on fire singing and praising god and what a witness that was to people that were watching them like wow they must serve like the true god um so there might be times you know and elijah

1:36:30 right elijah was fed in the wilderness by ravens and stuff there can be some supernatural ways that god can provide for us or protect us but like shadrach meshach and abednego our god is willing to save our god is able to save us from the fire but even if he doesn't yes we will not bow your image throw us in there this world has nothing to offer us that is worth losing eternity out this is our life is a blip of vapor the bible says there's nothing in this life that is worth rejecting christ and missing out on eternity in a perfect kingdom if i get tortured for a year when i get to heaven i'll say it was all worth it there's nothing that this world can do for us to me that is worth missing out on eternity and that's the hope that i hope that people will come to you know when the christians were being thrown to the lions and things there were people in those audience that were seeing those people have something worth dying for i don't even have anything worth living for and as it was said that the blood of the martyrs was like seed upon the earth that was creating for one death was like 10 more converts because people were seeing that these people have something worth dying for and i don't even have anything worth living for and i want what they have even if it means being thrown to the lions i want it wow wow wow wow absolute and i think that's how we're gonna have have that form of of religion that form of spirituality at the end where it's a it's it's going back to the basics understanding exactly what it is that um that makes one uh so in love with god that they don't they don't care about anything else and so beautiful mikey you want to bring us out yeah okay lord father in heaven i just thank you so much for everyone that is here tonight they could have been anywhere else but i just pray that something said here was eye-opening that it was a blessing to them that this is something that they can share with their family and friends and maybe it'll wake somebody up that you are coming soon and that is our hope because you said when you see all these things fear not draw nigh lift your heads up because you're uh that you are coming soon that you're drawing near and so lord we see the signs of the times we see them in every aspect of what you said famines wars rumors of wars pestilences and we see nations are coming together and trying to form one world governments and all these things and you said in the bible when they say peace and safety that sudden destruction will come upon them lord everything is pointing that you are coming soon help us to be ready lord amen help us to have a desire for your word help us to have a desire for prayer you are longing to hear from us you want a relationship with us and it's us that is turning our backs on you lord help us to make time for you every day lord i'm speaking to myself help me to make time for you every single day in prayer and in your word and help me to be ready help me to have those words that you're going to bring back to my memory at just the right time lord help us to be shining lights in this dark world who is quickly becoming hopeless and and wondering what in the world are we going to do next that satan is setting up the stage for this final deception lord help us to shine light on that help us to be the ones that can expose the enemy for who he really is and so that we can win our family and friends and so that we'll all be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be when you return lord thank you for dying for us when we were yet still sinners and we thank you that one day we'll be in a perfect kingdom with you and i long for that day but i thank you that you're long suffering so that we can all be ready in jesus name amen amen thank you so much mikey hang around uh just for a second and we'll talk after for the after show folks it's been a real this has been a a real interesting one because uh i i've wanted to look into this a little bit further myself and um it's been uh eye-opening because there's even a lot more to it that i couldn't get into tonight and a lot more video clips that i wanted to share with you but there's always the discord which we put a lot of our clips and uh we talk about this stuff 24 7 so if you want to be a part of this and if it's interesting to you join our discord discord is available on patreon.com strange normal you can get access to it right there for the cost of less than a sit-down restaurant once a month you can join our discord and help this channel spread the good news and the deception that's

1:41:23 coming so also uh i'll put a couple things in the the notes like uh how do you you link to this full disclosure i'll probably it's probably an affiliated link um so that uh the channel can improve if you want to grab one of those uh go ahead use that link i'll put it in the pinned comment at the top as long along with a couple other things that uh you might want to know about or desire okay folks that's it my name is bradley and this has been pure strangeness absolute normalcy strange normal good night everyone you're watching strange normal where the truth is the truth
