Talks with Iran have failed. Trump says Iran will not be allowed to sell any oil, if they block Strait for other countries, US will block their ships

For the people responding with TDS on this forum:

Amazing to hear this from a conservative, Bible believing pastor. Never heard of him before that I know of.

Looks to me like he is saying those agreeing with him are the real Christians, and those that don't are fake and false believers.
No telling what he thinks the "real believers" actually are.

But I will guess the 4 "real believers" listed are postrib rapture believers.
(Tribulation centered)

Not Jesus centered.
Oh the irony

He says people use TDS label on others because it is to discredit the messenger.

Ahem..when we invoke "TDS" label, it is EXPOSING them that use "destroy the messenger" tactics as THEIR MAIN STRATEGY.

WOW.
Blue ribbon hypocrisy.
Look...destroying the messenger is from Saul alenski's book "Rules for radicals"

Calling people that hate Trump "tds", fits them perfectly.

I'm not judging what the lost world of unbelievers do....the world does what it does and what it always has done. But the problem is when the church/believers get deceived into going along with and being party to what the world is doing...what seemeth right to fallen man....aye there's the rub, as the saying goes. The falling away and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition........ouch......the falling away is linked to the son of perdition. And only the church can fall away, the lost are already fallen. It is sometimes hard to believe what we're seeing these days and how far along we are.
So much truth in this post...I fully agree. It's very sobering.

As you hear and watch the News on Iran and the Mid-east, pay attention to the fact that we all are about to live in and through Rev. 9:13-21.
That prophetic event takes place with "the kings of the east", aka China, who is in desparate need of Iran's oil, and is now getting involved.

The "mark of the beast" will not take place UNTIL AFTER the global economic collapse, which shall be the end result of WW3:

Rev. 9
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great
river Euphrates.

15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.

16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand [200 million]: and I heard the number of them.

17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

Edit: I would have you understand that the four angels that are bound in the Euphrates, are members of those who are described in Jude 6
And the [fallen] angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under [of] darkness unto the judgment of the great Day.
Their mission is to convince the Islamic countries to fight against "the Great satan" aka the USA, and to destroy the nation of Israel at all costs. All of it will end up in total mutual destruction.

The only sad thing about wiping out the shia government in Iran?
Is, or will be the rising of that same shia government HERE in the U.S. of A.
So don't tell me they're already at it! :nnna

It might not only be China dominating the news in the near future.
Pete Hegseth may be fired!

Both for his war failures, and the news that just came out about his starving the military troops.
The little food they are getting is not even prison quality - it is ICE concentration camp quality.
The troops have also run out of basic sanitary supplies.
And care packages from home to military zip codes are being blocked and held by the USPS.

The mess is not only getting bigger in the White House.
It is getting bigger out in the field as well, o i.o.w. out on the high seas.

I wasn't aware things were that bad for the US military.
On another note, if we starve China on buying oil from Iran, WE might end up not being able to get our "Meds" from China.

Lilly announces plans to build $5 billion manufacturing facility in Virginia

New site in Virginia's Goochland County will develop active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) in the U.S. for cancer, autoimmune and other advanced therapies

Company will create 2,450 high-wage manufacturing and construction jobs

This marks the first of four new U.S. manufacturing sites that Lilly plans to announce this year


INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced that it plans to build a $5 billion manufacturing facility just west of Richmond, Virginia, in Goochland County. The new site will be the company's first dedicated, fully integrated active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and drug product facility for Lilly's emerging bioconjugate platform and monoclonal antibody portfolio.

Earlier this year, at a press conference in Washington, D.C., Lilly announced plans to bolster its domestic medicine production across therapeutic areas by building four new pharmaceutical manufacturing sites in the United States. The planned Virginia facility is the first to be announced and is part of the company's $50 billion in U.S. capital expansion commitments since 2020. At this site, Lilly will also boost its domestic manufacturing of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).

An ADC is a targeted therapy designed to deliver potent medicines directly to diseased cells. By combining the precision of monoclonal antibodies with the power of cytotoxic medicines, ADCs can act like highly specialized carriers, maximizing treatment effectiveness while reducing harm to healthy tissue. They are primarily used to treat cancer but are being explored for autoimmune diseases and other conditions.

"Our investment in Virginia underscores our commitment to U.S. innovation and manufacturing – creating high-quality jobs, strengthening communities and advancing the health and well-being of Americans nationwide," said David A. Ricks, Lilly chair and CEO. "By expanding our domestic capacity, we're building a secure, resilient supply chain that delivers for patients today and supports the breakthrough medicines of tomorrow."

Expected to be completed within the next five years, the manufacturing site will bring more than 650 new high-paying jobs to Virginia, including highly skilled engineers, scientists, operations personnel and lab technicians. The project is anticipated to bring 1,800 construction jobs to the region and greatly benefit the local economy.

And yet what IF , just what if the scriptures REALLY DO POINT TO JESUS and THE JERSUALEM OF GOD .
OH Indeed t here has always b een a weakness . BUT IT WAS NOT GOD
it was man .
What if i told you that GOD , as you quoated in zechariah , would again CHOOSE JERUSALEM .
And that with man this cannot or could not be done .
WHAT IF , oh i say , just what IF , THIS JERSUALEM and this judah , this israel
and this temple
That the prophets at times would speak about . WAS ABOUT THE HEAVENLY .
THE VERY ONE that the earthen had been patterned after, BUT NOT THE TRUE ONE ITSELF .
PAUL KNEW OF IT
as did the apostels . and as do the sheep . THE KINGDOM , THE ISRAEL , THE JERUSALEM
of GOD , THE TEMPLE OF GOD , THE ZION of GOD wherein the CHIEF CORNESTONE IS CHRIST .
OH ITS NOT THE EARTHEN . MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD
I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU .
RUN FROM THE NAR REALM , RUN FROM THE RCC
AND RUN RUN AND RUN FROM ANYTHING POLITICAL AND EUCMIENCIAL .
THEY HAVE ZERO IDEA of the ISREAL , the JERSUALEM , THE MOUNT ZION , THE TEMPLE i do speak of .
THEY SEEK THE EARTHEN and they will find on the day of the LORD that the earthen , that the flesh PROFITS NOTHING .

I wonder if this could be speaking of the hordes of the kingdom of darkness/hell...? going forth to "slay" through deception and lies......false words issuing out of their mouths which lead souls to perdition....?

"Alright… let’s talk about this week.
It’s been one of the most chaotic and frankly dangerous weeks we’ve seen in a while, and it ended with what I think is one of the most brazen examples yet of Donald Trump just completely fabricating reality about Iran.

On Friday, Trump went on a full blitz, calling reporters and claiming there was this massive breakthrough in ceasefire negotiations. He said the Strait of Hormuz was fully open, that there was cooperation between U.S. and Iranian forces to remove nuclear material, that Iran agreed to stop funding proxy groups—all of it. He framed it like this historic victory.

And look, Trump lies a lot. We all know that. But even by his standards, this was on another level.

What made it worse? A lot of corporate media just ran with it. No verification. No skepticism. They gleefully took on the role of stenographer

At MeidasTouch, we didn’t do that.

We looked at the actual data. We checked shipping movements in the Strait of Hormuz. We followed what was happening on the ground. And the truth was obvious: none of what Trump said was happening. Iran still controlled the Strait. Tankers were only moving through tightly controlled routes near the Iranian coast. And then Iranian officials came out and flat-out rejected everything Trump claimed.

And now? Things are escalating.

The ceasefire deadline is looming. Iran is threatening a full shutdown. Oil markets are reacting. Global alliances are shifting, without the United States at the center.

Meanwhile, Trump is up all night posting deranged content—Frank Sinatra songs, conspiracy theories about the CIA, relitigating 2020 and 2016, attacking anyone and everyone. Just completely unhinged behavior while the stakes couldn’t be higher.

And here’s what I kept thinking about this morning, sipping my coffee…

This is exactly why what we’re building at MeidasTouch matters so much.

Because when that lie dropped on Friday, we didn’t amplify it. We didn’t chase clicks. We told the truth—immediately.

That’s the difference.

Whether it’s this story, or our reporting on Trump corruption, or the Epstein files, or Trump’s declining health, or Trump’s support of Russia, or Melania, or the global realignment happening right now—we don’t wait for permission. We don’t follow the herd. We follow the facts.

And that’s why we’re growing.

That’s why we’ve been ahead of corporate media time and time again.

And that’s why your support, seriously, matters so much right now.

So I’m going to ask you again, right here in the middle of this post: if you’re not subscribed, join us. Help us keep expanding. Help us keep building a media network that actually fights for truth and doesn’t cave to power.

Because the reality is, these are difficult times. You feel it. I feel it. We all do.

There’s a lot of uncertainty right now—globally, economically, politically. But what we can control is how we show up. And at MeidasTouch, we’re going to keep showing up every single day, doing the work, telling the truth, and fighting for you.

And I mean that.

We’re listening to you. We’re building this with you. This isn’t just another media company—it’s something bigger. Something generational.

Anyway… I’m going to finish this coffee and log a few more reports."

What I seem to see is someone trying to create the reality that he wants through his words. I think it actually is a form of witchcraft and playing God. And sometimes the devil gives such a person what they want, because they are serving him. Just like he tempted Jesus with in the wilderness.

Nevertheless God is sovereignly and serenely on His throne and having foreseen everything........watching over HIS word to perform it.

Well? Last face it Nancy. Trump and a lot of other folks know, there ain't no integrity in shia muslims' words or treaties which to them, ain't worth the paper it's printed on.
Should the shias' want their 72 virgins? Here's an idea!
Let's send them to the place/s to where they can lay their claim to 'em!
So? While our "Representative Republic" is sending them to where they long to be?
Here at our own homes and neighborhoods, villages, and especially our rural areas?
Keep your powder dry!
Because it just may get western!
An it's not because I'm a warmonger.
It's because I am sick and tired of being sick and tired of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and His God who also is Our God and Father, or, supposed to be anyway (remember who Christ is sitting on the right hand side of the throne of), of being walked on, while being treated like so many harmless defenseless sheep, to be herded by whoever has the loudest voice, by "he" who deceives the whole world (Revelation 12:9).

Well now, if the 2 weeks period expires unfruitfully, this cease fire may end and the missile fire will begin again, Iran does not have much left to shoot with but we can up our game with them militarily.

And the blockade on Iran will continue.
Eventually Iran will blink-break.
Maybe they will break very badly.
Seems to me, quite a few Iranians would rejoice to be freed from the regime's authority.

Proverbs 29:1
He who hardens his neck and refuses instruction after being often reproved (corrected, criticized), Will suddenly be broken beyond repair.

It's now all about oil.
Not about setting people free from the evil regime.
The goals were never "the people".
They are all evil, Israel, Trump and all the other ones involved.
