QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; You have stated that August is the season of war. Van you explain a bit more than just that. I am sure you have before. But I am new to the blog.
Thank you for opening my mind

ANSWER: The majority of wars have begun in the Spring and Summer with August being the danger zone. The War of the Roses began on May 22nd, 1455, which was one of the earliest. The 100 years war really began on June 24th, 1340. But as we bottomed in global climate during the 1700s, this cycle tended to shift the wars to later summer. The American and French revolutions technically began in July. However, it was the Insurrection of August 10th, 1792 that was one of the real defining events in the history of the French Revolution since the monarchy fell 6 weeks later. If we look at World War I, that began on July 28th, 1914 and World War II began on September 1st, 1939. The Vietnam war and the Tonkin Gulf incident was August 1st, 2014. The Gulf War (first invasion) took place on August 2nd, 1990. The Iraq War (second invasion) began on March 20th, 2003 but this was clearly a monetary war game set in motion by Dick Cheney and appears clearly out of sync historically with conflicts, which is why it appears to be orchestrated.
We are in the dangerous this month for armed conflict. The cycle turned up in 2014. Ever since we have seen a rising international arms race created by Obama and a rising trend of civil unrest and terrorism. We have Iran and North Korea in a made rush to enter the nuclear weapons game. So yes. Beware of the month of August.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is laying out a plan to protect pastors from the IRS.
On Thursday, he addressed hundreds of faith leaders at a Pastors and Pews conference in Orlando, Florida, saying the government has been trying to hinder the influence of Christians in the political system for years.
“Christians have been silenced like a child,” Trump told his audience Thursday afternoon. He says it is particularly a problem with the Obama administration.
His speech encompassed the current trials Christians have been facing in recent weeks and over the past few years in the country when it comes to freedom of speech — limitations he says have come mainly from the White House or connected to it.
His solution? Repeal the Johnson Amendment.
The 1954 legislation created by then Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson limits the free speech of pastors, essentially threatening to take away a church’s or non-profit’s tax-exempt status for endorsing or opposing a political candidate.
“They get absolutely hit with the 501(c)(3), which is the tax exempt status, which is a tremendous hit. It’s a shattering hit, and it really keeps them silent,” Trump told his audience Thursday afternoon.
“Free speech is being taken away from people who are saying good things, not bad things. And if I can do that, I will have done a great thing for religion as a whole, and it’s so important to me,” he said.
Trump knows it’s a major selling point to get Christians from the pews to the polls.
“The words I said today are so important. I was honored to get the ovation I got, but they understand. I think it will be a tremendous achievement if we can get it done, and I know we can get it done,” Trump told CBN News.
“If we can get elected, that’s why I say on November 8, everyone has to get out and vote because four years ago evangelicals didn’t get out and vote. Christians didn’t vote,” he said.
The business mogul is trying to change that by attending events like Thursday’s Pastors and Pews conference — and by showing a softer, more humble side.
“In your RNC acceptance speech, it was a really endearing moment, you thanked evangelicals for their support but you said, ‘I don’t necessarily always deserve it.’ Why did you say that?” CBN’s Jenna Browder asked.
“Well because I think I’m not perfect, and because I think I’m less perfect than some people,” he replied. “But I have certain abilities that are good, like, being able to do things, and I think I’ll be able to things that will be really great for the evangelicals and others and they understood that.”
But some are willing to look beyond that. In fact, many evangelical Christians believe that Trump has been chosen “for such a time as this.”
But Trump shied away from the notion that this is a divine calling.
“Well, you know I’ve heard that from others, and I’ve heard it from pastors. I’ve heard it from others. You know I really don’t even want to think about it because it’s too big of a burden,” he told CBN News.
“But I can say this, that if I can do what I say I can do — and I’m not only talking with the military and building it up and safety and security, ’cause our country is in bad shape in so many ways — I’m talking, we can open up the voices of great people and the pastors and the ministers, and the priests and the rabbis and the people of religion. I think that will be something I will be so proud of,” he said.
Divine calling or not, Trump says he’s a friend to Christians.
“They believe so much in religious liberty as I do,” Trump told the Pastors and Pews audience Thursday. “Without religious liberty, you don’t have liberty.”
And that’s exactly what evangelicals want to hear. But Trump still has his work cut out for him. Most of these pastors who attended the conference are on board, but admit he wasn’t their first choice.
“We don’t know what we’re going to get from Donald Trump, but we do know what we’ll get from Hillary Clinton,” one pastor said.
While the attending the Pastors and Pews event was a move in the right direction for Trump, only time will tell if it translates in the polls.
COMMENT
I read some liberal propagandist say that Trump promised to do away with a non-existent threat to Pastors. That liberal was probably not a church goer and probably did not check with a Pastor before writing.
*CBN neither supports nor opposes any candidate for public office.
Alex has it right this is exactly what they are doing the EU gets most of the Muslims and the US gets the Mexican gangs and the radical communist blacks.

obama and ted strickland laughing
In yet another episode that shows just what scoundrels Democrats are, a former Governor of Ohio made a joke about the death of conservative icon Scalia, and it’s all caught on audio tape!!
It happened while he was talking to union members, who all laughed on cue:
Wow, pretty disgusting!!
Here’s more background from CNN:
Speaking at an AFL-CIO event in Ohio Monday, the Democratic candidate noted the importance of which party controls the White House and Senate next year.
“…The death of Scalia saved labor from a terrible decision,” he said, according to a recording issued by the NTK Network, which calls itself a news aggregation site. “And I don’t wish anyone ill, but it happened at a good time. Because once that decision had been made, it would have…
Hillary doesn’t just want to be the US “Queen” she wants to be “Queen” of the entire world; unfortunately for her there are not many outside the US that would support that and Obama has decimated the US military so with the mad Red Queen in power — world devastation would ensue.
Any legitimate study will show that the US created ISIS with the policy’s that the administration of Obama and Hillary used in supporting the Arab Spring. There that creation was intentional or collateral damage is yet to be determined but the fact is that the US did, in fact, create ISIS ans initially arm it though Benghazi
It seems that someone in the Army branch of the military is going to remove the “man” word out of the military MANUALS in order to make it more inclusive. It will be a giant step when…
