I'm just sharing my convictions.
Even from the flesh, we can see a hoard of sorrow approaching. In the near term, political and economic chaos are being foisted upon us by some folks who honestly believe it is their God-given right to rule the world. Further, they are arrogant enough to believe that whatever the hell they want to do to us is by definition in our best interest. We could have no better life than serving as their slaves.
They have built up a system to which they have sought to make us utterly dependent, only so they could rip it all down and make us feel powerless. Then, they will step in to "save" us -- at a cost. This is what their false god encourages them to believe. It won't work out that way, but you could not possibly convince them of that. That's because the god they worship is actually themselves. We could argue that they are conscious of this, but it doesn't matter in practice. They revere their own hubris, and it serves as their deity.
Their opportunism is not a sin; it's how reality works. Indeed, we should emulate it, but certainly with a different goal in mind. Under the Covenant of Christ, His glory is our goal in all things. Nothing else in this world matters. His glory is worthy of all sacrifice, worth more than this world and our lives here. We should always be opportunistic in seizing the moment, by developing an orientation of that "block logic" in swallowing all the contradictions of this fallen reality. We should be prepared for anything, always looking at the context with an eye to our Lord's reputation.
Political disaster is certain, and most of it is a secret conspiracy. Not that you can't see it coming, but that it's easy to ignore if you buy into the propaganda. And even the people who are steering this disaster don't know exactly when various elements in our system will break. They don't operate by some mathematically precise accounting of events before they come. Rather, they know generally how this will turn out as they tinker and activate various parts of the plan whenever it seems the most appropriate time. They are prepared for miscalculations, taking for granted there are some.
Still, the system is going to crash. Only a portion of their lackeys understand this. They rule our so-called political leadership, using them to carry out the deeds and take the heat. Some of their servants are dumber than hammers, but a few are well aware. Still, they aren't going to do what's actually "smart"; they'll do what they are told. The ones who go off-script will be punished like Trump. Most of them lack the savvy to even understand how to go off-script.
This is why so very many of those near the top, but not part of the ruling class, seem to be fooled by the apparent success of the system. There is still a lot of big money being invested in projects that may never be finished. They believe they are on the inside, and that the crash will not hurt them. They don't realize they are being used.
I'm going to guess that the plan includes some elements of our system slowly grinding to a halt. Other parts will break off in big chunks. It's not as if life will simply stop; only God can do that. Rather, the hidden ruling elite will simply try to make it painful, and even then, only by comparison. They expect that for the majority it will be too much to bear.
Of course, there's always that minority who do not allow themselves to depend on the system. For the past few centuries, at least, smart people have been preparing for life without the conveniences of whatever passed for current technology. This is not mere grumpy Luddite rejection of anything new, but a carefully considered readiness that would make one less dependent on the system. No one can be fully independent, but we can keep an eye on what life might be like without, say, electricity, and prepare for it as a contingency. You'll never be totally ready, but there are things you can do here and there that improve your chances of escaping the general trap into which humanity as a whole is falling.
Again, the hidden elite are opportunists; they probably could not discern for certain from one generation to the next whether the final collapse would come sooner or later. They've tried various things over the centuries, and some were rather catastrophic in outcome, but up to now, the time for full takeover has not been ripe. They did gain leverage by increments, but so far, the final grip has eluded them. Whether or not they succeed this time is not really important; they are trying to break things again.
The reason it doesn't matter is that God Himself is going to break down their plans, along with the rest of humanity's ambitions. Even in the flesh we can see the solar disasters coming. There is plenty of scientific evidence that a micro-nova is on our doorstep -- meaning, likely within 20 years or so. Indeed, a separate Carrington Event could come any day now, even without a micro-nova. This alone could clobber the power grid for a long time.
So far, only a small bit of evidence indicates any of the elite are preparing for this. For all the world, it looks like the majority of them just don't have it on their radar. Depending on how you look at it, that seed vault in Arctic Norway is just such a preparation. The same goes with some of the massive underground bunkers, most owned by governments. Even then, the known design and layout of these bunkers indicates it's not specifically for that purpose. That is, the smart bunkers are designed quite differently. To prepare for a Carrington or mico-nova means eschewing all structural metal and wiring.
Here's the problem: Any solar catastrophes will be an act of God. We have only scant record of what it has been like in previous episodes. A lot of advocates claiming to understand this stuff flatly reject God's Word, so there's no guarantee anybody knows what is coming. What the flesh cannot see is that God is in control, and will ensure that this thing suits His purpose, not someone's educated guess. It really doesn't matter what happened in previous versions if He's got something special in mind. Nothing in the past ties His hands.
Over and over again: Follow your convictions. Whatever God has planned for you, He'll tell you what He wants from you through convictions. Prepare to work around the human events insofar as you can see them coming; they are not the main event in our lives. What men can produce is just the background noise against which we live out His glory. If God wants to protect His Covenant family, the human plans cannot afflict us. The big issue is trying to become less dependent on the system.
The system won't just fail; God will wipe it out, and not with human hands.
