Hi John and Doves,

This news has got my mind spinning off in all sorts of directions. China's 70th birthday celebrations. China has gone from being a pariah to the western world, to a nation that we all trade with. Regardless of it's human rights abuses. The articles in the links below give a great deal of information about China. Viewing the photographs in the 1st link, it struck me that - perhaps? - China is the nation that the AC will come down to. Or appear in? We westerners tend to focus on America - Russia - the EU (Rome) and all the Middle East nations. Forgetting that China (and it's proxy, North Korea) pose great danger to the world. 

China has launched a vile and astonishing system of "social credit" into their people's lives. They relentlessly persecute the Christian churches there. Driving them underground. China poses a great threat to Israel. As we know, the river Euphrates dries up to make way for the Kings of the East.

Reading these articles and pondering on the photographs, one realises that China's simply MUST know that their time is short. The whole idea of eternal, rigid communist rule, is unsustainable. Human beings were created with freedom in our hearts. Our Almighty Father God created us with free will. Embedded in our souls. Hmmm. Methinks we are witnessing a huge (and desperate) crack of the whip from an evil regime. They cannot hope to contain and monitor their people forever. Not with the flow of information around the world now. It can be repressed for only so long. Does this 70 year anniversary place a marker on something hugely profound that is about to happen? It is also thought provoking to realise that China is the only super power that has had very little to do with the Jewish people and Israel. Thus far.

I would love to hear your thoughts, Doves.
