Dear Friends,
A few weeks ago, Jeanne, and I made a trip to visit new friends in Strasbourg. Whilst I was there, as well is speaking about house church issues, I also spoke about preparing for the end of the age and our essential unity in Christ, which I believe will become even more important in these last days.
In the past week, we have seen a sharp fall in stock markets, and money markets around the world. We have understood the problems the USA faces with the pollution threat in the Gulf of Mexico, which have seen the insecurity of Europe in the face of Greece's financial problems, the inconclusive election in the UK, leading to a hung parliament will of course leads to more instability, here in Germany, todays election in our state of Nord Rhein Westfalia, may lead to Mrs Merkel, losing her majority in the upper house, due to her financial support of Greece. In other parts of Europe we see financial disruptions in Iceland, Ireland, Portugal, Spain and Italy, as well. As the continuing transport problems Caused by the volcano in Iceland. Europe is not the only place to have suffered, there have been earthquakes in South America and Asia, and just last week we saw terrorism raising its head in New York.
To me, all of these things are signs of what Jesus called the beginning of the birth pangs.In 1 Chronicles Chapter 12, verse 32. It speaks about the sons of issacar, saying of them that they understood the signs of the times and new what Israel should do. I believe that today, we are desperately in need of people who understand the signs of the times, who understand the Bible, and can give clear guidance to God's people about what they should do in these times.
I am in no way a prophet, although I have been blessed by God by insights into what he is doing in different times and in different places, however, I do consider myself a person who understands the signs of the times. And so from now on, I will issue a letter each week or so with my commentary on current affairs, both inside and outside the church. My aim in these letters is not in any way to provoke fear in God's people, but rather to help them be better prepared for the future. I do believe that we are on the edge of seeing international economic collapse, which will lead to the rise in the idea that we “have to work together”, making the idea of a coming world government a possibility. Rather than fear. what is happening in the world today should provoke Real Christians into a renewed awe and love of God, a renewed commitment, Christ's body in the church, and a renewed vision to reach out to those around us in the name of Christ.
Attached to this letter, you will find an article that somebody sent me a couple of weeks ago about the coming financial crisis. Looking at stock markets over the past week, you will see that some of this is already beginning to happen.
Every blessing,
Keith Smith.

Economic Crash Forecast for 2010
Note: We are not sure who authored the original list of economic forecasters but we have separated them into secular and, below that, prophetic. We don’t stand behind any individual's forecast but one thing is clear: the signs they are reading is pointing them to a collapse in 2010. Prophetic voices below are in agreement. Because we had so many dreams and prophecies to this effect a few years ago, I told you there would be two waves of economic destruction. The first wave would come and go and things would recover some but then the second wave would bring a depression. Many gifted economists predicted at least the first wave. Well, we had the first wave and some recovery has come. Now some of the best and brightest economists are predicting the second wave to be far worse.
Secular Voices
Bob Chapman
First 6 months of 2010, Americans will continue to live in the 'unreality'...the period between July and October is when the financial fireworks will begin. The Fed will act unilaterally for its own survival irrespective of any political implications ...(source is from insider at FED meetings). In the last quarter of the year we could even see Martial law, which is more likely for the first 6 months of 2011. The FDIC will collapse in September 2010. Commercial real estate is set to implode in 2010. Wall Street believes there is a 100% chance of crash in bond market, especially municipals sometime during 2010. The dollar will be devalued by the end of 2010.
Gerald Celente
Terrorist attacks and the "Crash of 2010". 40% devaluation at first = the greatest depression, worse than the Great Depression.
Igor Panarin
In the summer of 1998, based on classified data about the state of the U.S. economy and society supplied to him by fellow FAPSI analysts, Panarin forecast the probable disintegration of the USA into six parts in 2010 (at the end of June – start of July 2010, as he specified on 10 December 2008)
Neithercorps
Have projected that the third and final stage of the economic collapse will begin sometime in 2010. Barring some kind of financial miracle, or the complete dissolution of the Federal Reserve, a snowballing implosion should become visible by the end of this year. The behavior of the Fed, along with that of the IMF seems to suggest that they are preparing for a focused collapse, peaking within weeks or months instead of years, and the most certain fall of the dollar.

Joseph Meyer
Forecasts on the economy. He sees the real estate market continuing to decline, and advised people to invest in precious metals and commodities, as well as keeping cash at home in a safe place in case of bank closures. The stock market, after peaking in March or April (around 10,850), will fall all the way down to somewhere between 2450 and 4125 during the next leg down.

Richard Russell (Market Expert)
(from 2/3/10) says the bear market rally is in the process of breaking up and panic
is on the way. He sees a full correction of the entire rise from the 2002 low of
7,286 to the bull market high of 14,164.53 set on October 9, 2007. The halfway level
of retracement was 10,725. The total retracement was to 6,547.05 on March 9, 2009.
He now sees the Dow falling to 7,286 and if that level does not hold, “I see it sinking

Niño Becerra (Professor of Economics)
Predicted in July 2007 that what was going to happen was that by mid 2010 there is going to be a crisis only comparable to the one in 1929. From October 2009 to May 2010 people will begin to see things are not working out the way the government thought. In May of 2010, the crisis starts with all its force and continues and strengthens throughout 2011. He accurately predicted the current recession and market crash to the month.
Lyndon Larouche
The crisis is accelerating and will become worse week by week until the whole system grinds into a collapse, likely sometime this year. And when it does, it will be the greatest collapse since the fall of the Roman Empire.
WALL STREET JOURNAL-
"You are witnessing a fundamental breakdown of the American dream, a systemic breakdown of our democracy and our capitalism, a breakdown driven by the blind insatiable greed of Wall Street: Dysfunctional government, insane markets, economy on the brink. Multiply that many times over and see a world in total disarray. Ignore it now, tomorrow will be too late."
Eric deCarbonnel
There is no precedence for the panic and chaos that will occur in 2010. The global food supply/demand picture has NEVER been so out of balance. The 2010 food crisis will rearrange economic, financial, and political order of the world, and those who aren’t prepared will suffer terrible losses…As the dollar loses most of its value, America's savings will be wiped out. The US service economy will disintegrate as consumer spending in real terms (ie: gold or other stable currencies) drops like a rock, bringing unemployment to levels exceeding the great depression. Public health services/programs will be cut back, as individuals will have no savings/credit/income to pay for medical care. Value of most investments will be wiped out. The US debt markets will freeze again, this time permanently. There will be no buyers except at the most drastic of firesale prices, and inflation will wipe away value before credit markets have any chance at recovery. The panic in 2010 will see the majority of derivatives end up worthless. Since global derivatives markets operate on the assumption of the continued stable value of the dollar and short term US debt, using derivatives to bet against the dollar is NOT a good idea. The panic in 2010 will see the majority of derivatives end up worthless. The dollar's collapse will rob US consumers of all purchasing power, and any investment depend on US consumption will lose most of its value.

John P. Hussman, Ph.D.
In my estimation, there is still close to an 80% probability (Bayes' Rule) that a second market plunge and economic downturn will unfold during 2010.
Robert Prechter
Founder of Elliott Wave International, implores retail investors stay away from the markets… for now. Prechter, who was bullish near the lows in March 2009, now says the stock market “is in a topping area.”predicting another crash in 2010 that will bring stocks below the 2009 low. His word to the wise, “be patient, don’t rush it” keep your money in cash and cash equivalents.

James Howard Kunstler (January 2010)
The economy as we’ve known it simply can’t go on, which James Howard Kunstler has
been saying all along. The shenanigans with stimulus and bailouts will just compound
the central problem with debt. There’s not much longer to go before the whole thing
collapses and dies. Six Months to Live-

What we have experienced the last two years is nothing to what we are going to experience this year. If you have a job now...you may not have it in three to six months. (by August 2010). Stock market will fall = great depression. Foreign investors stop financing debt = collapse. 6.2 million are about to lose their unemployment.

At the very end of the year of 2007 I have received a revelation from God that the
coming 2008 year was going to be the year of the beginning of outpouring of God's
judgment upon this world...About half a year ago God has given me a further revelation.
He reveled me that the crisis was just the very beginning. The world is going to
face the total and complete economical and financial collapse in August-

Unnamed (dream from mid 2006)
... I saw boom and bust cycle, and the bust years were light gray to really dark gray with the light gray being the less severe, and the dark gray more severe. I could see over the past few cycles, each of the periods of bust were getting more and more severe. I saw the year 2010, that year was pitch black. Anyone who didn't prepare would lose everything, and it was so devastating, USA would never recover... and there is but one way to prepare for anything and that is to trust Jesus for everything. I keep seeing hyperinflation. Food prices soar so high that if you ordered a small fry you it can cost like $20.00. Think of paying $60 for one potato. I keep seeing prices that would today they would only charge at a high class extravagant restaurant for just small bits of food. Then I have had many dreams where the American dollar collapses and there is no more cash, just paper I.O.U's. No one will be able to get a loan, even if already approved and already have the paperwork done. This seems to trigger some kind of religious revival because people seek comfort from God in all of this suffering.
Harold Eatmon (1998)
I had a vision of the stock market soar and then crash. After the crash, many big
business corporations and private parties bought up stocks because of the low cost
to buy in. Then I saw the market begin to climb again in a short period of time.
Then it crashed again bringing tremendous loss, ruin and devastation to all who bought
in the first time. This is what I have labeled "Two Black Mondays" . The time period
between the Two Black Mondays was very close together. I could not tell exactly how
close. There are some tell tale signs indicating the season and the setting. I saw
the season to be when *"the leaves fall to the ground"* then the first crash would
occur."Like Joseph in Genesis, I believe America will have fat years of financial
blessing. I also believe there are coming lean years of financial difficulty for
America. [Note: while this doesn't give an exact date, this prophecy was dead on

Pastor Leo Strathman
Yes, My Children, Judgment is coming this year. It is coming worse than it has ever been before. My Children, My Children, My Children, Look to Me for the things coming upon the world. It is going to scare men's hearts, put fear in men's hearts, and men are going to die for fear. Those who are NOT Trusting in Me. Those who are NOT Trusting in My Word. NOT Trusting in Me and My Word. NOT Looking To Me. Yes, My Children, this world is going to turn upside down. Your world, your world, is going to turn upside down, the likes of which you have not ever seen. Judgment is coming. It is at the door and it will be this year, says the Lord. It will multiply. It will increase. It will get worse and worse and worse. Yes, My Children, your finances will get worse, food will get higher, gasoline will go higher. Everything that you have to purchase will go higher and the money will be worth less. My Children, there is a great famine coming on the land, mostly it is created. It is a created famine. But, My Children, you must Look To Me...
Robert Holmes
On October 21, 2008 the Lord said to me (of the global economic crisis): “It will be a dead cat bounce,” meaning it will go down fast, bounce back then fall again. In April 2009, after some growth had taken place, the Lord affirmed, “Don’t get too excited about the market news, it will crash again.” In September 2009, He commented on stock market prices (as measured by the Dow Jones), “It will be a W curve”. Though it will improve through to mid 2010, it will crash again under “the weight of debt”.

What is going to happen this year? 1. The stock market in America will not only crash, it will no longer exist 2. The President of the USA will foolishly bring sanctions on the nation of Israel 3. There will be a great earthquake that stretches from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific 4. The greatest fear will be none of these things; it will be the lack of food men will fear most. The sad truth is that even after all these things have taken place in 2010, most will not repent and turn back to God, most will become even more corrupt as we speedily rush toward the end of time.
Samuel Garcia (11/04/07)
Last night/this morning I had a dream that I had in two parts. The first part I awoke
and asked THE LORD to give me further understanding of and then I went back to sleep
and THE LORD gave me the second part of the dream. In the first part of the dream
I felt like I had just left church, it being Sunday and I was headed towards the
store I work in which is a check cashing store; as I approached it I noticed that
it was closed and that alarmed me because it was open when I left to go to church
in the morning, so that concerned me but I did not see my bosses car so I decided
to call her but I got a recorded message from the operator about the phone being
out of service or something like that. I also noticed that I did not see any cars
driving in the streets and it seemed like it was around Christmas time; then I woke
up. The second part of the dream started exactly in the same location the first part
started -

Elaine Tavolacci (January 2010)
Yes things in the natural will continue to grow darker but don’t look to the media keep your eyes on Jesus. He is your source and He is your deliverer. Yes there is a changing of the guard. Some of you are confused because you have also been hearing many prophetic words from credible prophetic voices that seem to be contrary to one another. We are hearing that we are coming into a season of a great move of the Holy Spirit but we are also hearing that we are coming into the worst days in history. Who are we to believe? Both are accurate. It is like looking into a diamond. The Lord is showing some people one facet of the diamond who are seeing the brilliance of it, some are seeing the transparency of it but there are others that are looking into the other side and seeing the flaws. As you stay connected to the giver of life you will be safe in the secret place and experience the awe of God in your life in 2010.
Gene Redlin
You hear in media that things will be OK. Things are recovering. Strained optimism is everywhere. They are nothing more than signs in the tea leaves. False hope is rebounding everywhere. Even those who are MY Prophets are saying things will be fine. That is true, but not for all people and not for a long time...The only thing supporting this economy is hope in government, hope in systems, hope in hope. Until Hope in ME is restored there is no hope. Only hopelessness. The greed and excess that caused Baal to fall has not yet been removed from a system with evil as it's intention. This is more than just a floating higher balloon driven by so much hot air, this is an illusion. People have become prisoners of hope. There will be one more drastic downturn soon. Efforts will be made to hold this off until after the political season. It will only make things worse. Corruption to be removed is at the heart of this judgment. Once this downturn is completed it will be a very long time until recovery can take place. Well into the decade to come. 2015. Oil prices will soar, for a short time. Gold will go up in value for a very short time, housing will not recover for a very long time, Unemployment is going to stay very high. This will be a time for you to learn to TRUST in MY provision. For some it will be ravens by the Brook. For others a cruz of oil and a little meal. Fear not. It's all part of an adjustment that must come. It will mean a currency devaluation that will stagger many. Wealth will be destroyed. It will mean that many will come to the end of themselves. True wealth will be found, and it's not in worldly systems. It's time for truth and justice to be restored. The old systems have become a false God. It was essential that this idol come down. I will have no other God's before ME. I stand above any man's market or economy. When I call a famine or prosperity I call for it and it will happen. Be certain, I will take away anything that tries to substitute itself for dependence on ME. Particularly those called by my name must repent of dependence on the world for their provision as if they have forgotten my name as Jehovah Jireh. I am the Lord your God, there is no other. There will be more change in this decade then you ever imagined. Restoration of many things. Tearing down of others. Seeming disasters beyond understanding. Amazing miracles. Discoveries. Peace. War. Resolution. Birth. Death. Pain. Joy. Challenges to everything you believe. Then affirmation of that Faith you hold so dear. You will be refined as by fire. And it has ever been thus. And will be. The end of 2010 will be the beginning of these things.
