“War in Ukraine Now and Rumor of War in Taiwan Maybe Soon” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©03/03/2022

Whether Russia, China, or any other country against the Democratic Republic form of government that WORKS, despots will always choose their targets and wait until the best possible time to deploy forces and attack with all weapons deemed necessary to gain a victory. What is happening in Ukraine has shaken people here in the United States of America since there are few who went through wars like World War II when Hitler bombed England the way Putin is Ukraine now. My ninety year old mother remembers, and this angers her since my father fought in that war and his brother died serving, so this is PERSONAL since our government doesn’t have an FDR in our ranks to get us and the world through this now. I wasn’t alive during World War II, but I was given factual history when in school and understand the situation now.

Russia is still a NUCLEAR Adversary. Why in the world are we buying ANY energy from them? Claiming it’s because we need to fight ‘global warming’ or support the ‘green new deal’ is absolute HOGWASH! We ALL need to get our heads back in the present world of REALITY! I believe in helping other countries, and I have no problem working an energy deal with Europe to help them, but this ‘globalist’ mindset that some politicians, regardless of their party label is a slap in the face of ANY service man or woman who has fought, bled, or died for our country in the wars of our history. I take it very personally too when our own government BETRAYS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE for Political Gains! This isn’t okay in this dimension or any alternate! Last time I checked America was FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE!

Oh, that’s right… we’re no longer allowed to think for ourselves! Yep, we are supposed to believe anything that anyone in power tells us and just go along like good little boys and girls! WE THE PEOPLE are now seen as being dumb enough to need any message to be dumbed-down so we, the dimwitted who actually LOVE AND WANT FREEDOM will see how smart those in charge really are and how we have no right to say anything against them. Censorship is paramount to the safety of the masses, right? Not a single person can give their view if it isn’t along lines with those in power! Lively debate? Oh, no! That would hurt the little feelings of the brain-washed! How could they fight their programming if they EVER SAW REALITY? My goodness gracious that is just TOO BARBARIC TO CONSIDER! Yeah… right…

That last paragraph is meant to be completely satiric – a type of writing where you say or type the exact opposite of what is really happening or meant by the person saying or writing it. It USED to be used in comedy ALL THE TIME! Now? It can’t be considered even possible without getting slammed by those who don’t even have enough humor in their pinky finger! I’m a Christian, so I don’t like excessive graphic language, but I used to watch Saturday Night Live with the comedians that had their own programs too that were NOT really okay for a teenager, but I still found humor in some of their material even if I didn’t approve of some of the language. Sometimes reality isn’t clean. Sometimes people speak in rough language that still holds truth in it. THAT is WHY we have FREEDOM OF SPEECH! Not to agree but express.

While I’m praying Spiritual-Warfare type of prayers, I’m also hoping for some tactical group in a better place of safety from Russia will be able to react in time to help the Ukraine people in a stealthy way and better than we have been able to so far. Ukrainians are fighting for their lives and homes. They are fighting for their families and freedoms. They are fighting for their way of life and government. Sometimes I feel like Americans have been fighting since the Covid-19 pandemic took so much from us and gave nothing but pain and captivity in its wake. 2020 and 2021 were both TAKEN FROM US! I can’t express in words enough for those reading to understand the depth of my anger, frustration, loss, and absolute derision with how things were handled on all fronts. I WANT MY FREEDOM IN AMERICA NOW TOO!

How does this Ukraine incursion fit into the Last Days in Christian prophecies from the Holy Bible? It might only be a fulfillment of the ‘wars and rumors of wars’ given. Then again, it might be the beginning of the way the people of the world come together in times of distress when they feel something isn’t right. Unfortunately, it could also be what is used by the anti-Christ behind the scenes before Christians are taken away for safety before he the man of perdition is given his place in some government. At 11:55 pm on 03/02/2022 news reported there is a power outage now in Taiwan. This might be a coincidence with how things are panning out in Ukraine right now as warships are coming by the Black Sea to try to take Odesa sometime today 03/03/2022. Either way, Taiwan might be in that ‘Later’ mentioned in this post but ‘Now’.

These things must happen according to Christian scriptures concerning the Rapture of Christian believers, but I’m still praying that things will fall apart for the dictators, work out for the people in Ukraine and Taiwan trying to hold onto their freedom, and for all Christians who desperately need to WAKE UP to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ while there is still time! This is OUR responsibility that Jesus Christ CALLED EACH OF US TO DO before He returned to Heaven so the Holy Spirit could be sent to be our Comforter and show gifts to reach the world with the reality of God Almighty that isn’t just a religion. In 2022, we need the Almighty Power of God through His Holy Spirit for people to SEE HIM to then KNOW HIM PERSONALLY! HE knows you no matter where you are right now 03/03/2022. HE REALLY DOES!

Call on Jesus Christ to forgive you from your inherent sins from birth through the tainted bloodline of Adam that Him will exchange while giving you a spiritual blood transfer that He completed on Calvary’s Cross. We still have to deal with sin in these mortal bodies, but the more we pray, read the Holy Bible, and reach out to others then the better it will be for us to learn the amazing but sometimes challenging life He has for YOU. Please pray, “God Almighty of Creation, I do come to you in the name of Jesus Christ. I believe He is the only Son of God that came to die in my place for my sins that I didn’t even know about completely. Forgive me, let Your Holy Spirit reconnect my spirit to God Almighty again, and I ask for the transformation of my heart and mind as I praise You for accepting me. In the name of Jesus Christ… Amen!”

No matter where you are, if you prayed that prayer and believe in your heart then YOU ARE SAVED! No matter what happens to you in the physical realm of this world, your soul now belongs to God Almighty of Creation again! Give praise and glory to God for His Love! None of us deserve His Grace or Mercy, but He gives it to WHOSOEVER WILL! If you have, then you are now ONE OF THOSE! I will be praying for you and hoping you find your way to wherever you need to be for Him to give you a new life. You can find a digital Holy Bible on www.blueletterbible.org and choose your version to read. I suggest the New King James, but the New NIV is good too. Whatever can give you understanding for your new life in Jesus Christ is what you should read. I Pray Jesus Blesses You and Keeps You Safe in HIM! ~TK~

“Wars and Rumors of Wars with Perilous Times in 2022” Op-Ed

By Tonja Condray Klein©02/27/22

As we in the United States of America watch the news about the incursion of Ukraine by Russia, Christians should be asking a very important question, “How does this fit into the Last Days of the End Times in relation to the Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ?” While I still won’t put an actual date on when Jesus Christ will return to get believers saved by Faith in the Blood of Jesus Christ to take them out to safety BEFORE first judgement seal broken, certainly this also points to a specific scripture that came to mind right after American withdrawal from Afghanistan possibly leading to War on Ukraine and a future incursion of Taiwan by China. The United States of America should attempt to discourage all of this to not cause nuclear war now that Putin has put their nuclear response on high alert.

“Matthew 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

Matthew 24:7   For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

Matthew 24:8   All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Matthew 24:9   Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.” from the Christian Holy Bible King James Version

This scripture has been referenced ever since first written when any war or time of unrest has been seen by Christ believers, whether right after Jesus Christ returned to Heaven after the Resurrection around 33 A.D. or throughout the last 1989 to 1995 years, so why would it seem to be more likely to be speaking of what is actually happening in 2022 now? If not because of other scriptures that speak more about our present world situation we can see daily when contrasted to the histories of many nations around the world then I can only say that our world is more like that in 2022 than at any other in Pre-history (Ancient), Classical, Middle Ages, Early Modern, or before now in Modern history. The Christian Holy Bible tells us things that happened throughout time, but there are specifics for End Times that are even more dominant now.

“2Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2Timothy 3:2   For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

2Timothy 3:3   Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

2Timothy 3:4   Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

2Timothy 3:5   Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

2Timothy 3:6   For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

2Timothy 3:7   Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” from the Christian Holy Bible King James Version

All of the verses above are happening in 2022, but verse 5 seems to be leveled at Christian churches specifically about them having a form of godliness but denying the Power of God Almighty. THAT is WHY we haven’t had a REAL REVIVAL yet! I’ve seen the TRUE POWER of God Almighty in Christian Church services in 1985, so WHY are we not allowing the Holy Spirit to let His Gifts flow through believers in Jesus Christ who long to see many be saved by Faith in Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for all of our sins? ‘Wormwood’ has been thought to be a nuclear attack DURING the Great Tribulation, but it isn’t supposed to happen before Rapture happens of the Believers in Jesus Christ, Gentile or Jew. Is it possible that the Rapture won’t happen first? Not according to the Holy Bible we put ALL of our Faith in even in 2022.

My uncle was a Baptist minister, and I went to several different denominations over the years, but I believe we need a FULL-GOSPEL SPIRIT-FILLED GIFTS-OF-THE-SPIRIT-EMPOWERED REVIVAL! If we don’t we could be kept here until we get our act together enough TO DO WHAT GOD ALMIGHTY CALLED US TO DO! Then again, I and the ones who believe we won’t go until the last soul to be saved in the Grace Dispensation period happens are wrong and we are taken out anyway? What if we have to stand before Jesus Christ, the One who shed HIS BLOOD for us and have to be told the names and shown the faces we failed to give an account? JESUS, HELP US! We can’t fail those souls waiting for the Gospel of Jesus Christ to SAVE their lives AND CHANGE their lives RIGHT NOW! WE MUST NOT!

WE MUST WAKE UP! Some who claim to be Christian want to stay here and try to build their own empire, so they don’t want a revival unless it gives them more money. I want a REAL REVIVAL to give us a LAST HARVEST! I WANT TO GO HOME! In case you don’t get it, HOME IS HEAVEN. I have a mansion of my own waiting for me, not because I deserve it but because I believe in Jesus and HE PROMISED! “Just build my mansion next door to Jesus, and tell my family I’m coming home!” I have so many of my personal family, my church family, and my spiritual family to get Home to see, either again or for the first time. I want to go, but I don’t want to leave anyone behind who is meant to come with us. Each Christian should think about how you’ll feel when you give account of those you failed to reach.

“Oh, someone else will do it. I can’t take a chance on religion making people hate me! I have to keep my image of popularity, so I can’t be thought of as one of ‘those’ people.” Yes, I have heard those excuses for my almost 50 years, and even now they are nothing but prideful excuses that God Almighty is NOT going to accept for letting a single soul die and go to hell because YOU wouldn’t even TRY to reach them for HIM! I’m angry at churches myself for just NOT wanting to reach EVERY SINGLE SOUL POSSIBLE! EVERY SOUL POSSIBLE! NOT who YOU think deserves it. NOT who YOU think can raise admiration from fellow self-righteous hypocrites. NOT who YOU think is okay enough to share you church pew! Unto the least of these we are supposed to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ! THE LEAST OF THESE!

NO ONE is beneath God Almighty’s notice! HE wants ALL of the LEAST OF THESE! HE wants ALL of the WHOSOEVER WILL! Who are any of us to not try to reach them for HIM? He gave ALL for THEM and ALL OF US. How can we do any less for HIM? Some believers around the world are DYING because they claim their Faith in HIM. How can any of us in the United States of America or any other free country be so prideful to not see those who are led toward their own destruction without even understanding it because WE ARE NOT TELLING THEM! How can God ever forgive us for that? If you think I write these just for fun or acclaim THINK AGAIN. I write these to reach JUST ONE MORE! Anywhere! At Any Cost! EACH SOUL IS PRICELESS! How can any Christian think less than that?

I’m watching the news about Ukraine now, and my heart cries out for the people. Afghanistan before, Ukraine now, and possibly Taiwan next; we see the countries being lined up for the final phase before the Rapture might happen that leads to the Great Tribulation Period as prophesied thousands of years ago. I’ve watched actual prophesies happen in real time as leading to the final ones before the Grace Dispensation ENDS. This year, a couple more years if calendar off, or 2029 as one Israeli writer offers, the Christian church has a little time to get us right, have a Real Revival, and claim that final harvest of souls for the kingdom of God Almighty before TOO LATE. I don’t want anyone who can escape from Great Tribulation to be left behind when Gabriel sounds the trumpet of Jesus Christ to take us to safety in actual Heaven.

It’s been preached for over two thousand years, and even before that in the Old Testament prophecies too, so no one who has read any of the given Word of God Almighty has an excuse to not see what’s happening in 2022, especially those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, and we must try to do what God Almighty asks for us to do NOW AND STOP WAITING! While those in Ukraine are the most at risk today, the nuclear threat is worse at this moment than even in the previous Cold War era that I lived through. CHRISTIANS BEGIN PRAYING! This upgraded level of High for the Russian Nuclear Defense Assets is something that anyone who lived through the last 50 years can relate to as being very frightening. While I still believe Christians will be evacuated before the first judgement, we should PRAY FOR ALL!

Believers in Salvation through the Blood of Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God Almighty should be praying, speaking out with wisdom to those around us, and use pinpointed Prayers of Spiritual Warfare by those who have that Spiritual Gift. We need to be praying for the leaders in any occupation who could make a difference to keep the worst possible ending for Ukraine and the world. If a nuclear attack happens then EVERYONE will be affected! The deaths would be catastrophic alone, but just like with Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II the people still alive after initial strikes would pay with their lives from after-effects of radiation at a greater level since bombs now are stronger which means even more death and damage in the aftermath. Even if only biological weapons, it would be disastrous.

We must PRAY AGAINST THIS WITH FAITH!
