A Progression of Events Are Taking Place

Ring of Fire Alerts 00:03:06
I'm convinced in my studies that volcanoes are at the center of the signs of the last days.
What do you think?
I totally agree, Jim.
And right now it's happening all over the world, particularly along a region called the Ring of Fire.
It's a ring that kind of rings the entire Pacific Ocean.
And so Mexico, California, Oregon, Washington State, Alaska, they all set along this ring of fire.
And if you go to Volcano Discovery, it's a website that tracks these things.
More than 30 volcanoes have recently erupted around the world, and most of them are along this ring of fire.
Wow.
So it's not just Mount St. Helens.
I'm also watching Mount Rainier, but down in Mexico, Mount Popocatapetl, that's a mouthful.
But down in Mexico, in September, this is something that happened in September.
It started coming back to life.
It started and started all these explosions of steam, and people started becoming concerned.
And then in October, ash and black smoke started billowing out at regular intervals out of this giant volcano.
Now, this volcano sits about 50 miles away from Mexico City with their 18 million residents.
7 million more people live in the vicinity of this Mount Popocatapetl.
It's the Aztec word for smoking mountain.
And so people are watching this very, very carefully because so many other volcanoes along this ring of fire are going off right now.
In addition to that, we see other seismic activity with the earthquakes.
Right now in California, a city called San Ramon, it's about 45 miles east of San Francisco.
They've had this earthquake swarm over the past few weeks, more than 450 earthquakes.
This little city very close to San Francisco broke all records.
They've never had an earthquake swarm like this ever.
So scientists are very concerned.
You know, it's California.
Then down in Arizona just a couple days ago.
That one there, I've been reading about it and we haven't really talked that much about it.
But it's really scary.
They feel like this could be a sign that something big is going to happen in San Francisco.
And it will.
You can just write it down.
San Francisco will be inundated with earthquake.
Yeah, I talked about the California earthquake last time I was here.
But it's not just California.
Arizona just had a series of three very significant earthquakes just a few days ago.
Really?
Yes.
Within the last 48 hours, actually, Alaska, still along the Ring of Fire, has been hit by four earthquakes of at least magnitude 4.5.
So it's happening all over the place.
People need to watch this because these natural disasters are coming.
But this is what we've kind of seen in just the past few days, but it's part of a larger pattern of judgment.
You know, when people think of the judgment of God, they were all hyped up for something to happen in September, the end of the world.
Some people are expecting the rapture, all kinds of things.
Progression Of Disasters 00:03:54
But when the judgment of God comes, often there's a progression.
For example, if you go back into the book of Exodus and you look at the plagues that hit Egypt, the biggest plague didn't come first.
It built up to a crescendo.
There was a progression in the plagues.
And so I believe that this is what we started to see.
For example, you go back to September.
We had fires.
If people remember, there are tremendous fires all over, particularly the western part of the United States.
I know because a fire came to within about 10 miles of my own home.
So these are the worst fires in history, though, out west.
Well, according to the National Interagency Fire Center, going back throughout U.S. history, up to this point in the year, the second most acres that have been burned that we've ever seen, and many of them have hit very populated areas.
For example, in California, September 23rd, a very important date we talked about before, Barack Obama actually declared a major disaster, a major national emergency for this valley fire down in California so federal funding can be released.
A similar thing happened up in Washington State.
And so these tremendous fires, and like I said, we're on pace so far just behind 2006.
And 2006 was the all-time record.
We're barely behind that pace, but fires are still raging.
So by the end of the year, we might actually be the number one year for wildfires we've ever seen.
Oh, my.
And so we saw that right at the end of the Shemitah cycle.
Then just following that, we had unprecedented flooding.
Yes.
If you'll remember, September 28th, the blood moon.
Yes.
Hurricane Joaquin, well, it became a tropical, it formed into a tropical depression, September 28th.
Came up.
It never made landfall, but it kind of scaled the East Coast.
And moisture from that storm, so much moisture came into South Carolina and other places.
It caused massive flooding.
In fact, the governor of South Carolina said that it was the worst flooding they had seen in that area in a thousand years.
Now, that sounds like a judgment to hear.
A thousand-year flooding?
Yeah.
But it just wasn't the East Coast, Jim.
Then going out just a few days later, the West Coast.
They had drought in California.
It's been so dry out there.
Well, then they had all this rain coming in.
People were excited for the rain.
Well, it hit.
It caused tremendous flooding.
There was so much rain that it caused rivers of mud to go across freeways.
And so cars were literally being buried in these rivers of mud.
One guy, his car got buried under so much mud, they couldn't get to him for days.
By the time they finally dug him out from these rivers of mud, he was dead.
So that was on the west coast.
But the central part of the United States was not excluded either.
Hurricane Patricia, one of the strongest hurricanes ever measured, came up through Mexico, went into Texas.
Horrible flooding there in Texas just here recently.
And there was so much rain that it actually knocked a train off the tracks.
It derailed an entire train, caused deaths, all kinds of destruction in Texas.
So we have the East Coast, we have the West Coast, we have the central United States with all that flooding.
Just within this period of time since the Shemita ended.
So we had the fires, we had the floods.
Now we've got these volcanoes and this earthquake activity happening.
So I'm asking the question, are we starting to see that progression?
Are we starting to see these, they're not exactly little, but smaller judgments leading up to potentially larger ones?
Because God uses fires.
He uses floods.
He uses seismic activity, earthquakes, volcanoes, just like you read out of the word.
So we've seen this progression.
We've seen these things happening.
And when people hear, maybe they hear one event on the news and they say, oh, not really a big deal.
Or, oh, there was some flooding, this and that.
But when you put the pieces together, you start looking at the big picture, you say, what in the world is going on, Jim?
