    Against popular myth, the only governmental activity from now on will be against God in the physical. Covid19 was sent by God to create a peaceful sense of accord. But after fighting breaks out and people actually start to die, by the hands of humanity, economy, and nature itself, then God will appear, Revelation 6:14-17. After that the nations of the world will come together against God Himself.


    Instead of complaining why life is not getting back to normal, should we be seeking God's guidance on how we are to prepare for the return of Jesus Christ?

    The problem today is people are basing their conclusions on wishful thinking and disinformation.

    Are hospitals counting all non violent deaths as COVID-19 deaths? Of course not. COVID-19 is counted for people who die and and their death is associated with COVID-19 (even as an underlying cause). But they have to test positive for COVID-19. Does this inflate the numbers? Probably.

    What about destroying the economy? The economy has nothing to do with the virus or the disease. Economic factors determine a balance (compromising safety from the disease with economic stability). The economy has nothing to do with the disease or the best course of action to handle the virus. The economy factors in when we implement an action (perhaps the best overall solution is not the best action to prevent deaths from COVID-19 but one that prevents deaths while preserving economic stability).

    I have been contending for months that the USA economy was not that great prior to the virus anyway. The Fed was and is still pumping it up by printing copious paper money to prop up the banks

    Also, what ever happened to paying down our debt?!? So we just ignore it?

    And where is our American manufacturing? I could go on but if your fingers are firmly planted in your ears... oh well.

    How do you not know it is on the rise. In fact we do it more than any other country to include China.
