An ape called "Charlotte"

Great have been the protests over the decision to give the name "Charlotte" to a monkey, recently born in a Japanese zoo.
The Japanese, with their heightened sense of honour, have wondered how their national zoo could insult the royal baby, Princess Charlotte, by associating her with an ape.
This seems a strange contradiction when we examine the matter a little further.
Why, for the past 100 years or more, the world has been spoon-fed the soma that the whole lot of us are descended from the monkey tribe. 
So why should it now be such an outrage when a well-meaning zoo-keeper in Japan names his baby monkey "Charlotte"?
After all, he was simply going back into human genealogy and stating what the gullible public have been believing for years:
namely, that his charge in the ape house in Japan and the royal baby in London are directly connected by ancestry.

Jubilate.

Shock and Awe. When Mountains Move.

Things can happen in a moment that can turn our ordered lives and carefully arranged plans into chaos.
Two weeks ago the Calbuco volcano blew it's top. Here it is before and after.

Then last week the whole of Nepal was shaken in a gigantic earthquake that left scarce a building intact in Kathmandu.

Here are pictures of the sacred pillar, before and after.

 
Shock and awe indeed. When tranquility turns to terror and stability to total chaos.

But shall anything compare with the event that is shortly to occur? The glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ from Heaven.

 

The Bible says that when He comes every eye shall see Him and every face behold.  Be ready my friends for this will truly be shock and awe! Look up for your redemption is almost here! 

Jubilate.
