Good morning John/Doves
 
How are you? Hope all is well.
 
There has been some interesting recent developments here in New Zealand, which I wanted to share to do with key end time events.
 
For those that don't know, it is common knowledge here that New Zealand has long been a testing ground for things like political and social reforms as well as technologies.  The reason for this is because we are a people that don't 'rock the boat', we are quiet, friendly and at times apathetic.
 
To give you some examples, we were the first country in the world to universally adopt the EFTPOS (Electronic Funds Transfer at Point Of Sale) system.  This means that you don't need cash, instead when you purcase any goods or services you swipe an EFTPOS card and your bank account is directly debited.  Today, hardly anyone in New Zealand uses cash...it is on its way out.
 
To speed up the process, all of our change currency has had its first major overhaul for 40 years. We used to have a 1 & 2cent coin in copper, 5, 10, 20, and 50 cent silver, and $1 & $2 gold coins.  The 1 and 2 cent copper coins were removed from circulation about 5 years ago. From 1 July 2006 the 5 cent has been removed and the 10, 20, 50 have been reduced in size and the 10 cent has been changed from silver to copper.  What this means is that the value of cash change has been reduced, not so much in actual value, but perception in people's minds.
 
This a classic strategy of introducing things over a long period of time so as the shock of what ever the final outcome was intended to be, is not so.  If we all had cash eliminated from our societies even 15 years ago, we would have been shocked that our ability (ie, to come and go about our daily lives with no way of being tracked using cash) to live freely had been removed, and we would have strongly voiced our opposition to this.  Not so today.
 
It is clear that over time people are being desensitised and manipulated to accept these things.  We in New Zealand are now quite accepting of the fact we don't need cash and that the cash we do have, seems to be becoming worthless.  The fact that our 5cent coin no longer exists and our 10 cent coint is now copper has connected this in peoples' minds that it is as valuable as the 1 or 2 cent coin used to be, which was of little or no value.
 
The EFTPOS system is being widely introduced in other countries now, governments know that the system works, thanks to New Zealand. However, this will start to be tagged to other requirements such as social security, health info, and personal IDs...so as you can see...these things are coiming together on a global front, and rapidly.
 
The other recent development which moves us ever closer to the end time reality talked about in Revelation is implants for identification.  Our government recently passed legislation which now requires all dogs to be microchipped.  In other words, owners of dogs as part fo registering their dogs must pay $100 to have a micro chip the size of a grain of rice implanted under the skin, at the back of the neck, of their dog.
 
This means that the council rangers can easily detect any dog who happens to be caught roaming the streets and identify who the animal's owner is, their address and contact details.  The interesting thing about the way this was introduced was on the agument that there had been too many dog attacks in recent times.  But the point is, this technology will not stop dog attacks.....this is a spurious argument.  In my view, this is another one of those technologies introduced with a longer term goal in mind....which is to do the same to people through desensitisation over a period of time.....there is no doubt about it.
 
At some time in the near future as revelation points out, all these technologies will converge  but will be universally accepted by the world without a second thought.  People are already being manipulated now but can not see it.  There is an old story about the frog that is put into a pot of boiling water...it immediately jumps out because of the shock of a change of its surroundings.  The pot is then put back on the heat but this time is filled with cold water...the frog is put back in the pot, but does not jump out.  Over time the cold water starts to get warmer but the frog is oblivious to the change until eventually the water gets so hot that the frog becomes powerless to save himself......the analogy I think is very relevant to our world today.
 
That's all I have for now - will keep you posted
 
Thanks for all your hard work
 
Regards
