Soon, most who refuse to grow their own food will not survive well.

It's sad that some believe the hand of the Lord is short and cannot provide for His people

If things get so bad where the only way to get food is to grow your own, the criminals will just kill you and take your food

Those that don't believe the Lord provides for His people have no basis to believe for His protection.

The point is that there is salvation in no other name than Jesus Christ.

Except for those following conspiracy theories which are doctrines of demons designed to distract people from walking with the Lord over in to walking in the world being carnally minded which is death (separation from God)

Me growing my own food is one of Gods ways of taking care of me. God will allow millions of people to starve in the United Sates because they choose to believe false doctrine.

Silver traded at $80.53 in Shanghai today, that is more than $9 higher than on the Comex. This is called "Arbitrage". You can buy silver in the US and turn around and sell it in Shanghai and pocket the $9. Now think how brilliant this is if you want to bankrupt the US. Every trader and their brother is buying up silver to sell in China. This means there is no silver for the Big Banks that have shorted the silver to cover their shorts with. They are looking at catastrophic losses. This is $15 billion loss above the losses they were looking at with $65. Also, they aren't going to be able to buy that silver back at $80, for all we know they'll have to pay someone a 20% premium, that is close to $100 an ounce, and another $20 billion loss.


$80 SILVER IN CHINA RIGHT NOW – The Premium Explosion Means Squeeze Incoming
 
Shanghai hit $82.60. This means as long as Comex and LBMA are trading a few dollars lower that everyone will be standing for delivery and then flipping it in Shanghai to make the quick buck on the arbitrage. We thought the banks were trying to hold the line at 65 and that got blown through quickly. Then we thought they were trying to cut a deal at $72, but with silver ten dollars higher in Shanghai that also will not hold.
 
This is it, the collapse of the US banks and the US dollar.



IT'S OVER: Banks Tap Fed for $17 BILLION as Silver Shorts Implode
 
When the US seized oil tankers from Venezuela heading to China it was an embargo, an act of war. As a result countries and industries began stockpiling things they will need for a time of war and silver is a strategically critical asset. All industrial manufacturers who use silver are now switching from "just in time" supply chain to "just in case". This is why this huge increase in silver is not from speculators, it is from the context of an impending world war. This will be a war that uses missiles, drones, robots, and AI, all of which require silver.

One thing is interesting, you can look at the money flow of silver and this shows you that the accumulation began in 2019. Companies like JP Morgan switched from being the biggest short positions of silver to the biggest long positions. They now own over 700 million ounces of silver. The reason this is interesting is that they saw in 2019 that this day was coming in 2025. You might think, oh yeah, Covid19 first hit in China in 2019. But no, their accumulation began in April, the first known case of Covid19 was around six months later. Ron Paul says the reason we have been in so many wars the last 100+ years is because of central banks.

There are those who have focused intently on the global political moves of the last ten years and they see all these things, whether it is the pandemic, or the tariffs, or Ukraine, Iran, Venezuela, immigrants, etc as part of this worldwide preparation for a world war. They see the purpose of Ukraine is to drain the western powers of conventional weapons. The Psalm 83 war was fought with the goal of taking out Iran's nuclear capability as a climax.

Now much of what happened in the last six years was behind the curtain, but what just happened with silver is the curtain being pulled back. China can no longer prepare for war if the US is cutting off their oil supply. They are now dumping US bonds, going all in on accumulating strategic minerals, and the world is moving towards war the same way a train moves. At first it is very slow and labored, but with each chug it picks up steam until it is racing at 80 mph or faster. That is where we are now, barreling down the tracks at 80 mph towards world war.

This is not market manipulation to make a few dollars, it is hoarding essentials for the long fight ahead.
 

Physical silver in China is now at $90.25 USD/oz as of Dec. 27, 2025!
 
I believe that what we are witnessing in the silver market is going to be incredible. Here is what I think is happening, and most people agree with some of this.

1. Over the last few years, since 2019 the silver held in vaults has been drained. Year after year more silver was purchased than was produced.

2. This was not due to speculators. It is due primarily to industrial demand. All of the major players have contracts with producers to deliver so many ounces a year. When Samsung had their breakthrough in battery design they wanted to secure contracts but found they couldn't get more than 10% secured in a contract. Hence, some panic set it.

3. Governments saw this coming months ago as they set up restrictions on exports, trying to protect their own silver as a critical strategic resource.

But here is what people are missing, if you don't have any silver you don't have any way to cover your shorts. I think this is the other half of the story. If China and others are holding those contracts they can demand delivery rather than a cash payout. If the US is unable to procure silver these contracts can go to infinity and bankrupt the banks. Right now if the banks have to buy back silver at $100 an ounce it will be a major loss, but it won't bankrupt them. The Fed can bail them out. But if everyone holding silver refuses to sell, the price could go to $200 or $300 an ounce.

So yes, I think China is hoarding silver for a wartime preparation, but I also think they intend to turn the screws on the US banks and bankrupt them. The way you do that is to stand for delivery.

As these banks collapse they will have to sell assets and that means commercial real estate will go into a fire sale.

As commercial real estate is forced into sale or put into auctions to pay debts of a failed bank it will bring down the price of all commercial real estate. That in turn will mean massive cuts in property tax including rebates and local govts going bankrupt. These bankruptcies will add to the unemployment which was going up due to AI. It will also add to the repo market as people default on car loans and mortgages. If residential property also drops in value that will mean the equity in homes will also drop and that means people will not be making large purchases.

Silver going to $300 an ounce will have a dramatic impact on the rest of the US economy.
 
If this rise in silver was due to speculation like the Hunt brothers then you could raise margin requirements and that would shake them out, you could also prohibit the purchase of silver with the only trades being sell orders. But this isn't speculators, it is industrial demand. If you take those actions you will cause those who have shorts to cover which will increase buying pressure and you will cause buyers of silver to go straight to the mines, cutting the brokers and vaults out of the equation.

Instead this time it is because demand exceeds supply and with the drums of war being beaten everyone is hoarding, we have a complete loss of confidence in both the LBMA and theCOMEX.
 
ZNP is head of the "Chicken Little Department of the Sky is Falling Let's All Live in Fear"

That's how the conspiracy theory people roll, always focused on problems being void of the Solution.

This is one way we know conspiracy theory people aren't real Christians in that they don't preach the Gospel, they just peddle fear as their father the devil leads them to do.

It's too bad for them where these people will be spending eternity.
Oh well.

No, God's Word is how it is. He IS Reality along with what He speaks (His Word)

You just peddling fear as you ignore the Word of the Lord pointing everyone to the fear of this world which screams "the sky is falling" just like chicken little.

You get off on spreading fear and are obviously in touch with your inner chicken little eek2.gif

This is the word of God.

Revelation 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

16 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

And this also is the word of God

Matthew 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.


This thread is simply showing that the stage is being set for this judgment to fall on the Great Babylon.

Other threads are showing that this judgment is just because of Epstein Island, Diddy Parties, human trafficking, etc.

Too bad it's all fear based information from the world and God's Word is not being presented as the solution.

God's call to action from His Word is left out and nothing but fear is being presented. Sad.

Even with the scripture you just posted, where's the call to action so people can know exactly what they should be doing???

Repent, come out of her my people. Anyone who followed the advice I gave in 2022 to buy silver is not in any financial difficulty, that silver is worth 4x what they bought it for. That isn't a solution, only a stop gap measure. I repeated that call to action many times, close to 200x.

This thread focuses on the coming great depression. But on other threads like the ones about Christmas I have focused on the "coming out of her my people". I have referred to the apostasy more than 700x on this forum.
