My message this morning is entitled discerning the last days I want you to bow your hearts with me as we ask the Lord to bless his word Father God, we love you and again What an honor and a privilege first and foremost to stand before you the God of heaven The God of the universe the God of the earth the God of all creation What an honor and a privilege it is to stand today before your people Lord I asked this morning by your Holy Spirit that you would open the scriptures to our hearts Lord I asked that you would again help us in these latter days to be discerning believers Help us Dear God to be vigilant Dear God help us Dear God to know what's going on Dear God and be prepared and ready ready To to stand in defense of the gospel in these latter days Now Lord we love you and we ask that you bless this word We ask for an open heaven this morning and we love you now in Jesus name Amen Amen discerning the last days and we're going to see some amazing things here This is our bible prophecy chart, which is a chart of time And we're currently in what's called the church age and again I know everybody look look confused in there But this is a great chart that will give you God's order of events and we're in the church age The next major event is that of the rapture of the church where the church will literally be caught up But today we're going to look at these current signs and events Discerning the last days Our generation is greatly unaware of the critical time in which we live The signs of the times are all around us, but our undiscerning hearts Are oblivious to what they are and what they mean Jesus was very disapproving of the religious groups of his time because they could not discern the signs of the times It is imperative that we become discerning believers to effectively reach this end time generation We are living in perilous times And fear is gripping the hearts of much of the world We the believers have the answer That comes their fears Knowing the times Make us makes us effective and equip Ministers to proclaim the hope of the gospel that this generation is looking for What we have is a sound clear message that can help a world that is lost You know a lot of people in the world today. They are concerned about the end times We know that because uh, they go to psychics trying to find out the future Rather than come to god and get god's word on the future. They go to psychics people want to know the end times But it's good that we as believers understand the end times and know where we are where we are better equipped To help a world that is searching now. I'm a topical teacher. So i'm gonna give you four topics this morning. We're gonna look at Jesus reprimands those who could not discern the times He rebuked him in a sense. Then i'm going to define what is a sign or what is signs Then we're going to look at the signs of the times in scriptures. What am i going to do there? I'm going to hit signs in the gospels. I'm hit signs in society We'll look at the nation of visual world coverage is a number of things i'm going to hit some things pretty fast Some things i'm going to focus in on but we're going to see where we are today We're truly living in the last days and then last we'll close up with how should the signs of the times affect our days Our daily lives as christians and it should affect you in a positive way which we're going to see As we go forward. So let's define the term. What does it mean to discern? Dissern it means having or showing good judgment Showing insight and understanding This discriminating able to see and understand people and things are situations clearly and intelligently I like some of the synonyms for it. It is perceptive wise and aware Knowing and informed in these latter days. We need to be informed about where we are We need to know what the scripture say about the end times, you know, there's a lot of falsehood that's out there There's a lot of abuse that's out there people are calling things signs of the times and they're not signs of the signs of the times We need to know what the bible Give us as far as prophecy regarding the last days. So in that Jesus reprimands those who could not discern These times and what happened during jesus day He he was met by the by the by the scribes and the Pharisees and it's the only time these two groups got along because uh, normally they were in two different camps Matthew chapter 16 verses one through four They came to jesus and they challenged him Regarding the signs. Look at this the Pharisees also with the Sadducees came and tempting desire that he Desired him that he would show them a sign from heaven And he answered and said unto them when in his evening you say it would be fair weather For the sky is red and in the morning it would be foul weather today for the sky is red and lowering Jesus said all ye hypocrites You can discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times Jesus told uh the Pharisees and Sadducees of his day you men you prepare your life based on the forecast You see in the sky, but you guys cannot discern the signs of the times This was an indictment against the church of his day and it's an indictment against us today as well Many people today they watched the weather news. I mean the weatherman Uh and and again they prepared their lives based on the weatherman's prophecy Jesus rebuked these many column hypocrites Not on that, but jesus went on he went on to say this to them He says a wicked and an adulterous generation Seeketh after a sign and there shall no sign be given it But the sign of the prophet Jonah and he left them and deported Jesus told these Pharisees he said the only sign i'm going to give you Is the sign of the sign of Jonah the prophet now? We know what happened to Jonah the bible said that Jonah God prepared a fish for him And Jonah was in the belly of the well for three days and three nights until God Vomited him up a vomited him out of that fish And Jonah went a days a three days journey in one day to do God's will Now the reason why Jesus said the sign of Jonah because Jesus tied the sign of Jonah to his resurrection You know when Jonah was was thrown up out of this fish It was like a type of a resurrection and Jesus said fellas the only sign i'm going to give you This uh this adulterous generation the only sign i'm going to give you is the risen is my resurrection He said when you see my resurrection, but again these Pharisees they weren't believing the resurrection either But I thank God that God he so beautifully has given us signs and indicators which we're going to see In a few minutes now What is a sign? What is the sign? Look at this picture. What is the sign? Isn't that something signs? Signs give direction Signs prepare us. What is the sign?  It's an indication of a coming event Well, Jesus has given us signs all through the scriptures Of a coming event all of these signs all of these indicators i'm going to give you this morning All of these signs they point to the second coming of Jesus not the rapture But the second coming the second coming takes place after the tribulation period And these signs that we're going to look at they point to the second coming and it tells me this If we're seeing signs today that point to the second coming Then how close is the rapture? The rapture is even closer So we're going to see we're living in an urgent time now And again, God want to use us in these latter days to reach a dying world I love this quote here from chuck misler from his book prophecy 2020. Listen what he says about about these signs and indicators He said the bible lays out a detailed scenario of the final climax for mankind on planet earth It also provides listen at this Testable reference points to determine just where we are in that scenario. I love that the signs of the times these indicators They are testable reference points where you can know where you are in that scenario because we see these markers in time There are certain things that God have told us that would be in time events These are markers in time as you see these markers You know that you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that we're living in the end times And I can tell you today says we are living in the end times This is not the hour to play church This is not the hour to to live a backslidden life Listen, we're we're living in the end times So let's look at the signs We're gonna see the signs in Scripture we're gonna see these signs of the time in scripture And again, we're gonna see some amazing things.  It's gonna come up here This is a clock. It's called the doomsday clock It's put out by a group called the bullet bulletin of atomic scientists The bulletin of atomic scientists. This is a group of Nobel laureates Brilliant men smart smarty pans These guys are brilliant They're a little bit too brilliant for their own for their own sake But they're smart men And what they've done they've created a doomsday clock and what they do they move this clock either backwards or forward Depending on world events that they are discerning So let me show you some look at this In 1995 the clock was 14 minutes to the end of the world 1998 they moved the clock to nine minutes to the end of the world In 2002 they moved it to seven minutes before doomsday 2010 they moved it six minutes till the end of the world 2012 they moved it five minutes with five minutes away from doomsday 2015 they moved it to three minutes to doomsday And last year they made the unprecedented step and they moved the clock Two and a half minutes To the to the end of the world. Look at this picture that's coming in the screen This is this is this is a tool of the scientists here that's part of the group and they moved the clock Two and a half minutes to midnight You know these men are doing these men are discerning the times This is what we should be doing in the church Only problem though. These men don't have hope They believe we're two minutes away from the end of the world And you know something we understand based on scripture, you know, this is not the end of the world yet I mean god for the for the righteous god has a beautiful a beautiful plan.  I'm not coming to church because he's gonna scare me No, I'm not gonna scare you but I'm gonna give you the word of god And what we're gonna see we're gonna see what the word god has to say about the end times These end time messages should not should not scare you it should motivate you It should it should it should challenge you to allow god to work in your life So we're gonna see that as we go forward now. Jesus gave gives the signs of the times what I'm gonna do here These signs are in the gospel. So I'm gonna hit them some of them I'm hit some of them pretty fast But uh here in the gospel of matthew chapter 24 verse 5 and 11 chapter mark mark chapter 13 verse 6 And uh 21 through 23 Luke 21 verse 8 Jesus told his disciples in the latter days that there would be false christ who would come on the scene These are men who would claim to be the anointed one And I got just some examples here of some false christ in our recent past Every one of these guys here are dead So they can't be the christ David koresh jim jones, they had suce maranda and sun young moon sun young moon said He said jesus failed to do what god called him to do So therefore god raised him and his wife up to be the the be the new christ Problem he died Look at this next one here in the screen here This is a false christ in the media I think this is the most diabolical of all false christ in that uh, they are redefining christ I've challenged christian in the latter days.  This is an indicator of the last days Jesus said in the latter days that there will be wars and rumors of wars Look at this matthew 24 verse 6 and mark 13 verse 7 luke 21 verse 9 You know, there are over 40 wars that are going on right now We don't hear all of them in the news, but wars are going on all over the world. It's a sign It's an indicator of a sick world in need of a savior Well in looking at that We have kim jong-un He's 34 years old. I call him the baby with nukes Kim jong-un in the headline listen listen listen at the threat and the warning he gives to us This is kim jong-un. He said this Kim jong-un threatens to to ramp up north korea's nuclear arsenal Uh In in world war three warning. He's warning us. See that's a room of war. Look at this kim jong-un says north korea poses substantial nuclear threat to the us Look at this Kim jong-un issues a threat to america in his new year's message. This guy has a problem look at this New york's times talked about him quoting him. This is november 20th of last year North korea said wednesday that it had successfully tested tested the wasong 15 a newly developed icbm That it said could deliver heavy nuclear warheads anywhere in the continental united states The missile flew higher and for longer duration than previous previous Intercontinental ballistic missile launches, which flew for 37 minutes on on july 4th and for 47 minutes on july 8th david wright A scientist of the union of concerned scientist said the missile performed better than two fired in july And exhibited a potential range of more than 8 000 miles Able to reach washington or any other part of the continental us This is wars and rumors of wars. Let me tell you we're we're living in the last day. We're living in a in a world That needs jesus This is this is the end time to look at this one. This one here. This one really amazes me I call this The rise of the god and may god coalition Here we have iran Russia and turkey and again. This is just amazing. Ezekiel 38 39 talks about God's gonna he's going to judge god and may god Ezekiel 38 gives a list of nations that's going to form an alliance with russia in the end times To come against the nation of israel now what we're seeing here is an is an amazing event This happened november of last year.  All right, here we go You have you have Rouhani the the iranian president. You have pudin the russian president and then you have uh, uh Edagon and this man. He's the turkey president But this is an amazing event because now you have uh, three of the players for the god and may god war Have now come come together. These were these were arch enemies as a matter of fact two years ago uh Erdogan the turkish president shot down a russian plane that veered into turkish airspace Two years later their buddies Here's another another amazing thing. Here you have the suni and the shia The suni and the shia that hatred is even worse than their hatred for israel But now you have a suni and a shia coming together in the last days Let me tell you something. We're living some amazing time It's like god is moving major chess pieces on his prophetic chess board to bring us to a close This is amazing Wars and rumors of wars things that are setting up for the end times Jesus also talked about in a lot of days that there would be deception All types of deception that men would be deceived matthew 24 verse 5 and 11 mark 13 verse 7 Deception is running rapid in our world Case in point i mentioned uh last year Had this had this crazy prediction that the rapture was going to take place september 23rd I was so shocked by the number of christians that bought into that lie A guy talking to me said brother perkins. Are you sure? Are you sure it's not gonna happen?  You must stick with the authority of the word judge everything you hear judge every prophecy By what you read in scripts let the word of god be the final A final decision making maker for you in regards to end time prophecy Jesus talked about in a lot of days that there will be famine Matthew 24 verse 7 mark 13 verse 8 luke 21 verse 11 They're using terms like mega famines I mentioned before how in the world Do we have famine in such a technological society as we have not only we have technology But we have equipment to place food anywhere in the world. Why do we still have famines? You know why because jesus said in the latter days famine would be a part of the end time generation This is a sign of the time You watch commercials and you see these little babies, you know, we're swollen stomachs stomachs You know, we support them we do but that's a sign that jesus is coming back It's a sign of the end times famine in the 21st century amazing Look at this next one pestilence Here jesus talked about matthew 24 7 luke 21 11 he said in the latter days that there would be pestilence pestilence are diseases incurable diseases all types of things coming into our culture and our and our society I remember sorry remember sorry everybody everybody wearing masks Uh, the blue uh, the bird flew swine flew the zika virus and the list goes on Not only that but we have we have childhood diseases that they thought they once cured that are now coming back on the scene with a vengeance It's letting us know we have a sick world And again jesus said this will be an indicator of my return. This is an indicator that i'm coming back He talked about earthquakes in diverse places or many places matthew 24 7 mark 13 8 luke 21 11 he said earthquakes in many places or diverse places They're having earthquakes today say is where they've never had them before not only that but they have an earthquakes of large magnitude You notice telling me that the world is grown and by the way the world is growing and tripping You know the world is tired of sin And I really believe that the shaking of the world is a direct result of sin The world is tired But jesus said this would be a sign In the last days. Look at this next one. This is the amazing one here This one here jesus said in the gospel of luke chapter 21 11 That there would be fearful fearful sights and great signs in the heavens things that man cannot explain in the heavens I like this one. This is a picture taken by the Hubble satellite.  Can you imagine how he felt when he saw that? God messing with him Look at this one luke uh no uh uh here here here in the gospel Matthew 24 Jesus said in the latter days that the love of many Would wax cold We have a society now that don't love like they used to look at this elder abuse Shaming Bullying You know back in the day you didn't have a lot of this back in the day Look at this picture the lady in the bottom of here says beaten by her grandson You know back in the day you didn't have that back in the day you didn't beat grandma Grandma say what? Grandma pulled out that big old skillet man Maybe you saw seeing birds flying man No, no see we're in the end times now We're in a culture now that have empowered the child To disobey that's a sign of the last days We have a culture now that don't love people don't have genuine care anymore Even the caregivers are abusers This is the sign of a sick world This is a world that needs jesus Now i love this sign. This is one of those positive. I like this Jesus said that the gospel would be would be preached and published Matthew 24 14 and mark 13 10 He said the gospel will be published and preached and then the end shall come With the rise of technology technology has caused the gospel to go to the ends of the world the nook and crannies of the world I really believe then and that god allowed it to come to fruition because it was going to help the gospel Go behind the bamboo curtain the iron curtain and whatever the curtain that's hiding the gospel from his people You know the gospel is going behind north korea You know the gospel is going into russia and china Yeah, the gospel because of technology. This is a sign of the end times Even the apostle paul gave us prophetic texts He outlined signs in society. He called them perilous times perilous times mean times of trouble or troublesome times Look at this second timid chapter three verse one through seven paul gave a list He said in the latter days, there would be a generation of selfish people Men are lovers of self more than lovers of god Men that are head in high-minded the bible says here men Without natural affection He talked about children that are disobedient He goes through the list. He talked about men He talked about men ever learning and never coming to the knowledge of the truth In other words men have knowledge, but they're not getting god's knowledge in the last days This is perilous times. This is a sign This is an indicator that we're living In the end times and god want us as christians to discern See what i'm giving you now is things that you need to know you didn't have these signs marked in your bible We have a manual out there. It's called bible prophecy gods auto events We have a whole section on the signs of the times in that section I have one whole section called A quick list of the signs and we give you all the signs We show you signs as like a bullet you can get these scriptures and get them get them marked in your bible So you have them ready. I love them because as i'm flying, you know I'm preaching on the planes And I love getting those people boy. They got questions, man They want to know what's going on. I say, you know the bible talk about these times Especially when you got turbulence, man. I love I love preaching with turbulence I mean their their hands are gripped on the seats turning red But they're listening Because they think they think they're about to check out of here. You know what I mean? I love preaching the gods listen listen signs We need to know what the bible says about the end times the bible Bible commands us in peter to have an answer for every man that asks us a reason of the hope of jesus that is in us You need to know the signs For your family You need to know the signs of the times for your co-workers so you can better tell them where we are and what's happening We're living in some amazing times Paul even talked about doctrines of devils. Look at this first timidity chapter four verse number one Paul said now the spirits because expressly That in the latter times some shall depart from the faith giving heed To seducing spirits and doctrines of devils in the last day. Paul said men would give heed They would begin to listen to things that are demonic They're listening. They're giving heed. They're giving heed to spirits And doctrines are teachings of devils Let's go a little forward. Look at this. Here's a major sign We know this israel the nation of israel in the last days. I love this. I love this israel a major sign The book of aim is chapter nine verses 13 through 15 here Amos talked about in the latter days that god was going to bring israel back into world history Ezekiel 38 verses eight through 11 God said that he was going to multiply Jew upon the land listen when israel became a nation In the latter days, it was a major sign of the time. You know israel is on the news every day Yes, a sign of the time Look at it. Zachariah chapter 12 verses two or three. This is a prophecy. I'm going to talk about a little bit further here This is it's called it's called Jerusalem a burdensome stone Jerusalem in the latter days will be hated by all nations This is a sign of the end times And again, I'm going to show you some things now. Now one thing I like about this though is that what god did God knew that he was going to bring israel back into world history And god has given such a prophecy that he tied the nation of israel To the universe. Look at this Jeremiah chapter 31 verses 35 and 36 It says thus said the lord Which give us the sun for light and day and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for light by night Which divided the sea When the waves there there are roar the lord of hosts is his name Those if those ordinances depart from before me said the lord Then the seed of israel also shall cease from being a nation before me forever God tied the nation of israel To the universe he said if you can if you can stop the ordinances of the sun moon and stars israel will not be a nation forever I woke up this morning saying is I mean the new I mean the the sun was up It tells me that israel is here by divine providence This nation the things that are going on there. It's so amazing It's amazing what we're seeing in the end times We're in the end time saints Now dr. Dave Reagan from his book called the jewish people rejected our beloved He made this statement about the scripture. I just read he said what god is saying here Is that the nation of israel will exist as long as the sun comes up and goes down And the seasons of the year come and go and then to emphasize his point The lord states that the nation of israel will continue to exist until all heavens Above and the foundations of the earth have been explored and measured In other words israel is here to stay Let me tell you some saints The fact that israel has come back in the world history This little bitty nation is a major sign that god's word is true And we're living in end times As things are set up as things are happening in that land I track it all the time because it lets us know that it's getting closer and it's getting closer Whether you believe it whether you understand all the nuances of prophecy. It's irrelevant prophecy is coming to pass We're in the last days look at this jerusalem A cup of trembling. I want to read the text for you here. This is amazing. Zachariah 12 verses 2 and 3 God says behold, I will make jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all people round about When they shall be in siege both against juda and against jerusalem And in that day, I will make jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people All that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces Though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it This prophecy said there's coming a day where all the people of the earth will be against the nation of israel against jerusalem You know people say, you know if we can only stabilize the middle east if we just stabilize it We get the jew and the palestine together the world Will be at peace No, it won't You know why because this prophecy tells us here that the unstabileness of the region is by god's design This is a prophecy the unstable cup is like a cup of coffee that's shaking You can't drink it because it's it's unstable jerusalem in the latter days is an unstable place israel is unstable by god's design No president no prime minister the un no one can stabilize that region outside of jesus christ and jesus christ alone So in light of that i want to show you some signs of the times event Our president i thank god for donald trump he he he uh he he has uh He has promised i thank god for him. He has promised To move our us embassy to jerusalem, which i think you know, we should have done anyway. I mean, uh, it happened I say it happened it happened on the books in other words There's an act called the jerusalem embassy act that was signed back in 1995 Back in 1995, we should have moved the embassy from tel Aviv to jerusalem back then But every president up to donald trump Has kicked the can down the road every six months every six months. They have delayed moving moving this thing because of political You know theater Donald trump. Thank god from he's the first president To to do this So in light of that look what happened look what he said donald trump president trump said this He said i have determined That it is time to officially recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel The president openly and unequivocally He said the president described his decision as being in america's best interest While emphasizing that this move would move the region closer to a lasting peace agreement He said we cannot we cannot solve our problems by making the same fail assumptions and repeating the same fail strategies of the past the president said all challenges Demand new approaches listen at this my announcement today marks the beginning Of a new approach to conflict between israel and the palestinians Now i love my president We are commanded to pray for him whether you voted for him or not whether you like him or not You are commanded to pray for him The bible says pray for those in authority that you might lead a quiet and peaceable life Who's ever in office you are commanded to pray for them Well, i love my president, but i gotta tell you something president trump our president cannot bring peace to the region That is only reserved for jesus and jesus only I'm glad he's moving the embassy though. I'm gonna show what's gonna happen. Look at this Look at this perspective. We're gonna see a perspective here Now now this this perspective here, uh, i'm gonna show you come back to it This perspective is a perspective of the jew and the palestinians So how both of these groups look at president trump's decision? It's amazing So let's look at the palestinians view Abbas threatens war if trump doesn't rescind jerusalem declaration. Look at this He said palestinian leader makhmud abbas on tuesday continued to exaggerate continued his exaggerated response To the u.s. President donald trump's recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel by threatening a regional war Look at this Speaking in chiral abbas said jerusalem is the key to peace if it is our capital And if it is not it is the key to war Trump will need to choose isn't that something he said trump got to choose either going to be peace or it's going to be war He said there is no such thing as a palestinian who will give up even one millimeter Of jerusalem. Let me tell you something President trump's decision It's going to further tighten the region It's going to further make the cup unstable But it's by god's design. I'm telling you it's it's signs of the time stuff You know it's in it's in time stuff. You hear me? Now let's look at the israel's perspective. This is from the breaking israel news They said president trump's epic proclamation on wednesday Acknowledging jerusalem as the as the eternal capital of the jewish people was a major step toward establishing listen at this The third temple and bringing the messianic era So to the jew they said when president trump declared jerusalem the capital is a sign for the third temple Said a number of jewish activists working to rebuild the holy temple What he did last night was an enormous step in bringing the temple I said Friar he said official spokesman for the unity temple movement an organization of of An association of organizations working toward making the third temple a reality told breaking israel news he added This necessarily had to come From a non jew in order to bring them into the process So they will be able to take their part in the temple. This is amazing He said donald trump's declaration is a sign for the third temple Let me tell you some it's amazing what's happening. We're this type of movement so fast man. It's almost hard to keep up with it A challenge backsliders today. Listen. This is not the hour to be living a backslidden christian life Too much is happening These indicators god is giving you warnings there. There are indicators that are happening before you today Now what should discerning the last days or how should discern the last days affect our daily life How should it affect us as a christian? How should you interpret the signs at a time? Should should these signs make you become a hermit? Or or are extreme prepper This is nothing wrong with prepping In southern california. We should have water and food in case something happened But there are a lot of people that are extreme preppers today and they've gone into a false balance with it A lot of christians are going into extreme prepping As a matter of fact, some christians right now still have y2k food in their garage Let me tell you some bible promises should never produce a fear in you that it immobilize you or it makes you Static or or it stops you As some christian friends come to our conference and brother perkins. We really appreciate the words you give We were christians that were extreme We were extreme preppers and what happened? We stayed in our house. We were so scared. We would never go outside That's not that's not bible prophecy What should what should these type of messages do for the christian? Well, look what jesus said. This is amazing. How should these messages affect you luke 21 verse 28 Jesus said and when these things begin to come to pass When you begin to see the signs that i've given you jesus said then look up And lift up your head. That's a positive sign saints Jesus said when you see the signs, he said Look up and lift up your heads Why he said for your redemption draw near saints is getting close I love the signs of the times because let me know that jesus coming soon.  No, no i'm because i understand the future i'm i'm a more productive citizen You know i'm a good person to be around Because i understand the end of the story I got hope i'm a happy guy Let me tell you some saints. I live in the same world you do I get i receive the same threats from from from the iranians Same threats from kim jong-un same threats But guess what i sleep so good every night I hit that bad man La la land I'm not stressing out by any signs indicators. I teach this You know why?  I'm lifting up. You know something these signs motivate me to become an evangelist to reach a lost world These signs cause me to go after my loved ones who are not safe. You have loved ones that's not safe, don't you? Let these signs motivate you to go after them Mom dad listen time is why let me show you how close it is.  Come on man. Get your life right Look at this romans 13 verse 11 and 11 through 14 paul wrote and that knowing the time That now it is high time to awake out of sleep Listen the signs of the times should motivate you to come out of your lethargicness Come out of your coldness Wake up out of sleep christian For now is our salvation nearer than when we believe The night is for us spent the day is at hand Let us cast off the works of darkness these signs should motivate you to cast off sin in your life Backslider come on back to the lord today Don't play with god come on back Come on back Look at this He said let us put on the armor of light the bible said you're a children of the day We're children of the day Let us walk earnestly as in the day not in rioting and drunkenness Not in chamberling and wantonness not in strife and envy But put ye on the lord jesus christ and make not provision for the flesh to fulfill the lust See these signs of the time in time message it should motivate you to live a holy life It should motivate you to to shore up your christian borders Not live loose I call it greasy grace and sloppy agape You got a lot of christian greasy grace man.  No grace will keep you holy Yeah I'm almost done. Look at this Matthew chapter 24 again. Jesus talked about the walls and rumors of wars He said christians don't let don't don't let that shake your world. Look at this He says and when you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars kim jong-un's threats Rumors when you hear of this he says see that you be not trouble For all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. Jesus said christian. Don't you don't you get upset? Don't listen let it motivate you in a positive light and not in the negative I mean a lot of people to say, you know something I don't watch the news because the news is negative I say you watching it wrong. You need to watch it with a prophetic eye If you look at it from a prophetic perspective, you realize that time is winding up and I must be about my father's business Says we're living in the end times This is not the hour to play Here's our response to israel. See we should not get involved in trying to make peace in the region This is what god requires that we do as a church for israel some 122 6 it says pray for the peace of jerusalem They shall prosper That love the all god requires the church to do for israel is to pray for the peace when you pray for the peace of israel You're praying for the millennial reign of christ You're praying for the millennium the bob says isian 9 6 that jesus would sit on the throne of his father david He will govern the world with peace the prince of peace That's the only time jesus will have a lasting peace when jesus the prince of peace sits on the throne And god will give that glory to no man but his son jesus The ultimate peace in the middle east is coming But you would be surprised as to how it will come The united nation and other governing entities believe they can accomplish this great task But they are extremely mistaken God has so beautifully given in scripture how peace will be achieved in the middle east It is through his son jesus christ And and and only him God reveals his plan in such clear detail that no one can I mean uh with clear detail that anyone can see it The unstableness of jerusalem is by god's design He controls the affairs of the world and in his time it will have divine peace As he has described In his word See our part is to pray for the peace of jerusalem Here's my last verse as I close Psalm 119 6 says this I love this It says great peace Have they Which love thy law And nothing shall offend them listen saints we need a relationship with the word You need to love the word of god in the latter days Listen listen you need the word of god more than just sunday morning and wednesday night You know a lot of times we come to church sunday morning hear the word and they were getting our car And we throw our bible in the back window I drive around a lot of cars with the bible in the back window burning up in the sun They don't pull it out until wednesday service you better get that bible out that out that sun Take that bible in your house and read the notes that you learned in sunday service Let me tell you some chris you better get this word in you You have a world that is attacking what you believe the bible says You want great peace love the word of god Thanks, we're living in the end times and again, we are living in some amazing time God want to use all of us in these latter days

As much as I cannot wait for this election to be over, I will admit that I am kind of looking forward to the upcoming debates between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. And the first one is approaching very, very soon. It will take place on Tuesday, September 29th, tomorrow by the time most of you see this video. And I have a lot of expectations. I think this is probably going to be the most explosive event. And I think that both of the candidates know that most people will be tuning in to this debate. And so, yeah, I kind of want to share what we can expect based on the discussions or the topics that will come up for discussion. And I also want to give you my thoughts about what to expect. So first, Bloomberg reporter Emma Kinnery explains topics for the first presidential debate next Tuesday have been released. The debate will be moderated by Fox News' Chris Wallace, and this is what will be discussed. The records of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden, the Supreme Court, highly contentious issue currently, COVID-19, probably the most important issue to voters, the economy, race and violence in our cities, and the integrity of the election. Now conspicuously absent from this debate, climate change. Really important. Health care. If Trump actually gets his way and gets a third Supreme Court nominee approved, that means that the conservatives on the court will have a 6-3 majority and ACAs on the table. Right now it doesn't seem like they would strike it down with Roberts. If we can assume he will side with the liberals again, it'd just be deadlocked. If he gets this nominee through, the ACA is on the table, so we need to talk about health care. Not only because people around the country could lose protections for pre-existing conditions, but during a pandemic where people are losing their jobs and as a result losing their employer-based health insurance, I think this is something that needs to be discussed, but I hope these topics come up at a future debate. The way that this is supposed to be structured is each of these topics will be discussed at length for about 15 minutes each. So I think that this format is a little bit more conducive to a substantive discussion, although when we're talking about Joe Biden and Donald Trump, we're going to basically see talking points compete against one another, and it might be a little bit insufferable, but I do think it will be entertaining at a minimum. Now, before we get to my expectations, we do have three debates taking place in October. So after this debate, the next debate will take place on Wednesday, October 7th. And this is actually the vice presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Mike Pence, moderated by Susan Page of USA Today. And after that, Steve Scully of C-SPAN moderates the second presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, which will be a town hall style debate on Sunday, October 15th. And finally, the third and last debate will occur on Sunday, October 22nd, and will be moderated by Kristen Welker of NBC News. Now, overall, broadly speaking, going into these debates, Joe Biden still has a solid lead over Donald Trump, both nationally and in battleground states. So what we have to see happen in order to see the trajectory of this race change is Donald Trump doesn't just have to have a good performance. Joe Biden also has to have a bad performance because if both Donald Trump and Joe Biden are competent, cognitively speaking, then I think that it's not really going to change the direction of this race. But if it's a disaster and Joe Biden face plans, I can see that tipping the scales back in Trump's favor. Now, I kind of want to go through each of these subjects because I think that there's some areas where Joe Biden will have an advantage. And there's other areas where Donald Trump could be seen as the winner. So when it comes to their records, they both have absolutely abysmal records. I think that, you know, Joe Biden can win if he hits Donald Trump on COVID-19 and how he bungled that response. Now, Joe Biden is a little bit more savvy than Hillary Clinton, and he is using some populist rhetoric on the campaign trail to appeal to the voters that Democrats lost in 2016. So this one, I kind of see it as it could go either way. But when it comes to the Supreme Court, I do think that this is an area of opportunity for Joe Biden. He can really win and dominate here by showing how hypocritical Donald Trump and the Republicans are. Because even if you and I who are in the trenches already know that Mitch McConnell and Republicans are hypocrites, I mean, does the average voter know that? I don't know. Now, COVID-19, if Joe Biden places cards right, this should be a bloodbath for Donald Trump. Do not let him get away. We already know what Donald Trump is going to say. I acted fast. You know, I did the travel ban to China when you said no. Joe Biden has to move on from that. Explain why we all thought that it's because Donald Trump is the one who downplayed the severity of COVID-19 after he knew how serious it was. I mean, if Joe Biden messes this up, I will be outraged because this is like, this is a softball, right? They're throwing that right down the middle for you. So Joe Biden better dominate this. When it comes to the economy, I think that Donald Trump, because he's so braggadocious, will have the edge here. Although if Joe Biden is able to capably respond to Donald Trump talking about how, you know, the stock market is doing well and actually explain to people that the stock market isn't an indicator of how average Americans are doing, Joe Biden can actually do well here. Now, when it comes to race and violence in our cities, I think that Trump has the potential to appeal to these white suburban voters that the Democratic Party has been trying to win over by saying, look, you see all this chaos in the streets, you know, this is something that, you know, the Democrats support. I don't support this. This is law and order. But at the same time, you know, Joe Biden can say, look, this is all happening on your watch. You're declaring certain cities like Seattle and Portland anarchist jurisdiction. So are you saying that you're not a competent leader? If the country is devolving into anarchy, like he can really play around and clown on Donald Trump here. I don't know if he's going to be effective at doing that. But if Joe Biden can at least show a little bit of sensitivity to the issue of race and criminal justice, then he can he can do a really good job here and at least show voters that he's more in tune to the protests and what people want and the need for criminal justice reform than Donald Trump is and police reform more specifically.  He just has to prove not just that mail-in voting is safe, but that Republicans are actively engaging in voter suppression. They're actively engaging in voter suppression. And this is happening all across the country and it's making it more difficult for people to make their voices heard, which is why a minority party is, you know, in power, controls all of government. So, you know, for each of these topics, I kind of I kind of feel like overall Joe Biden has the advantage based on what they're going to be discussing. But at the same time, Biden's got to be on point. He can't be making too many gaffes, whatever his aides gave him at that debate between Bernie Sanders and him.  I'm of course talking about Coca-Cola.   If you're having one of your bad days, I mean, that could change the direction of this race. Trump could get momentum and sometimes when you get momentum, it's sort of like a snowball effect. It just keeps growing. So this debate, especially Biden has to come prepared. I think that the second VP debate, if we have, you know, Joe Biden performed competently at this first debate, I think Kamala Harris will do a pretty good job against Mike Pence. You know, when she actually tries, she does a great job debating. I've seen some pretty horrible debate performances, you know, particularly towards the end of her campaign in 2019. But if she actually brings the energy that she brought to that first debate that she did in the Democratic Party primary, she can obliterate Mike Pence. Like she is a good debater. She just has to come prepared and I think that she will. But so long as Biden has a good first performance and Kamala Harris is able to back him up with a solid second performance by debates two and three where you have a more town hall style. Well, that one isn't going to be as intense. And by the time, you know, it's the third debate. I think that there's going to be some people who are just already tuning out the election. They've made their decision. But then, you know, the last minute voters are going to see, you know, both of the candidates make their last pitch. And this will be the last impression that they get. But I think as long as Joe Biden has a good starts, then that's not going to be enough to change the momentum, right? In Trump's direction that is. So, you know, we'll see what happens. Either way, I expect to be entertained. But Joe Biden's aides better get him prepared. He should be practicing day and night. Have everything he says be rehearsed.  Like I've said this, I sound like a broken record, but if you face plant out of the gate, it's going to be bad. So just maintain that lead. You know, Donald Trump is going to be trying hard because he knows he's losing currently. So make sure you come prepared. And I think you'll be okay so long as you don't absolutely make a fool of yourself. Joe Biden. Not that he's watching, but he better bring it.


We need to talk. We invite your apprehensive listening. We shall begin now. I'll tell you this story like you've never heard it. Your mind and your emotions will want to reject it.  Trust me. We need to talk. We invite your apprehensive listening. We shall begin now. Welcome to Colonel Marsh Hare YouTube channel representing prophetofwar.home.blog. I just want to do another reading from one of my website posts since I know a lot of people don't read websites. The title of this is history. Which narrative? It has become apparent by my course of study over the last 20 something years that the narrative pushed by academia is not the narrative that is provided in the historical record. The data is twisted and manipulated in order to force it to fit the pre-designated theories and dogmas of modern scholarship. So what is currently taught is pushed with mockery against anything that disagrees. And a lot of people talk about the arguments between academic scholars and whatnot, but they're not really arguing different concepts. They're arguing the same concept with the same theoretical basis and just arguing about details. So keeping that in mind, on my website I often bring up stuff that is actually currently taught by a lot of people, but it's ignored and people do manic mockery. You know, that's not true. Everyone knows the truth. We learned it in middle school, right? So it must be true. I mean, okay. So why would academics want to squash the true narrative? Well, I'm glad you asked. It's really simple. They need to sell their knowledge and they need their published works to be viewed as authoritative, regardless of the facts. If you need an example, hit up Google, type in sumer firsts. That's S-U-M-E-R. And you'll see a lot of books and reports and videos, all kinds of stuff. It's something that's been published and sold to the public. And you can see how many people's careers were absolutely built up by that topic. Now, what I want you to do next is Google, tell Amarna, Syria. It's T-E-L-A-M-A-R-N-A in Syria, not Egypt. And you can see from that story that scholars have known as a plain and obvious fact since the 70s that sumer was not the oldest civilization. And that's not accounting for Hittite, Indus, and other civilizations that are really much older than Sumerian. So these scholars need to sell themselves as authoritative so they can make money. In anthropology, I call this political popularity. It's actually a method. It's part of theory development and selling your research. The research has to be filled with new theories that support the old theories. It's the common practice. That's why when you get published, you have to be peer-reviewed. If you're not peer-reviewed, you're probably not gonna be published or won't be accepted. You have to be peer-reviewed to make sure you're on those same page. Everybody's copacetic and no one's in disagreement. We can't be teaching the truth. We have to sell the narrative. Okay, you can find basic lectures about theory development in scientific research, theory development in scientific research. You find that stuff all over the internet. They'll tell you exactly how to do it. So for these academic scholars, it's convenient for them to write history off as myth. It's a myth. It's also convenient to label it as prehistory. No, it's too old. We can't validate it, right? These are two methods used to introduce real facts and yet at the same time, let you know that they're not dependable facts and they aren't evidence. So at the same time, the system has produced what I call the two hands of Gog and Magog. I stole that from my buddy Sean. Gog and Magog are basically the left and right of the ancient civilization of demonic power mongers. It's kind of like what we have today, Republican versus Democrat. They're all evil. You know they're all lying to you, but you pick one and vote for them. So the two hands of Gog and Magog, two sides of the coin narrative and they produce arguments that attract attention, right? You can find these arguments anywhere. But the two arguments are equally debased and non-constructive. They're distractions from the true narrative and are designed to confuse and keep people from the truth. You have to pay attention. So academia is an echo chamber and I went over this in my, I think it's on my definitions page. So it's really academia is an echo chamber.  You get a whole bunch of people in the same room. They're all just gonna bounce it around the room and no one's gonna think for themselves. So this echo chamber is dependent on mockery. It keeps the peer flow going, right? Everybody has to support you. If you don't be supported, you be mocked, okay? So whenever you see mockery used as an argument, you know that it is system academia at work. Oh man, everyone knows this. We learned it in middle school. Best argument I've ever heard, right? And where do you get this stuff? Are you a conspiracy theorist? Those are common mockeries. Obviously if everyone learned the basics in middle school, it's gotta be true, right? I mean, right? If it's in the textbook, in elementary school, middle school, high school and college, it must be true. And let's totally disregard the fact that everything in textbooks, unless you're paying five to 10 grand for your one or two chapter textbook, everything in textbooks is at least 25 years old and that's being generous, okay? I mean, I was reading stuff that was sold. It was mind boggling that it still existed in print. And I was paying a few hundred dollars for a very small textbook of really old stuff that made no sense. Academia relies on scholasticism, political pressure and public education. These are weapons used against you, against your mind, against your ability to think for yourself.  So aside from those weapons, for what faculties you have left, they use scholasticism, political pressure and public education. Political pressure and public education and scholasticism, you can find mirrored echoed in the media. Some argue that mainstream science would never hide data. After all, they argue and debate amongst themselves. Well, they argue and debate the currently accepted dogmas. Most renowned scientists only provide the same data in different ways. They really don't break free from what they're told to believe. If you pay attention, you can see that they only base their concepts on the same old modern perspective. I want to pause there. When I say modern perspective, modern in my perspective, since I've been reading ancient, ancient, ancient texts for 20 years and studying ancient cultures and how the ancient people did things, to me, anything basically 400 BC on is modern, nothing's changed. I mean, you could even push it back to about 4,000 BC and say absolutely nothing has changed. That's modern to me. So they're pushing the same old modern perspective, right? The arguments are just the same old story. The baseline assumptions stay the same no matter what they try to prove. The facts presented are not provable. I challenge you to try it. Go prove something that they say is a plain fact. And these facts presented contain so much assumption that to me, it's ridiculous that anyone believed it in the first place. The only way I can see that anyone actually initially believed it was that it was a really smart guy saying it and using really big words. But anyway, yeah, it's just ridiculous to me that people believe this stuff. Once you look for evidence and prove pretty much everything they sell just falls apart. You see that it's supported on individuals and their ability to cull people. It's not supported with evidence. It's all politics. So the stuff they provide as basic fact that everyone knows can only be supported with lengthy explanations and lengthy theories and the theories themselves need lengthy explanations. Nothing more to support the stuff sold as fact. If you don't believe me, check out the story of the dig at Huayatlaco, Mexico. Basic science process is to refute facts, change the facts, fix the data to make it match the theory, whatever you gotta do, especially if the facts go against already published academic premises. You can look up Huayatlaco, H-U-E-Y-A-T-L-A-C-O. Just wiki it, read the story. Now, get into real history and prepare yourself to unload the trash that you've been sold in school on Wikipedia and Google, by the government, all of them, by religious leaders, all of them. Get out of the system. Start preparing yourself to mentally exit the system. If you don't prepare yourself to receive basic truth, you'll never receive basic truth. You'll just keep charging forward with the same old paradigms and the same mind-blocking attitudes that everyone has had for the last 4,000 years. So when you do research and anyone can research, all you have to do is pay attention to what you're reading. If someone says, this is a fact, find out who said it's a fact, find out what their premises were, what were their principles for living, what did they believe? Just drag it back to where it originated, right? Okay, don't rely on the words of other people. Even if you're into the Bible and you want to do what the Bible says, the translation you have is the words of other people. You need to look it up and see what it actually says. Don't rely on the words of other people. Take it apart, research, compare contrast, find the puzzle pieces and put them together. You can't force them together. They will go together, right? Even a child can do it. I mean, even when it comes down to the biblical stuff, I mean, even if you have difficulties with brain function, which I have some, you can still do it. The truth is simple, right? So it took me about 20 years to figure this much out. But I assume it took that long because I'm just slow at things. I didn't really have a guide. Everyone kept telling me, just believe what we tell you. I had to do my own searching. So personally, I'm not dependent on academia in order to protect my investment in my career, okay? I'm not producing things to protect my lifelong investment in a career that I hope will get me through retirement. Nothing I say is making me money, okay? I don't need to be accepted among the scholars. I really don't want to be accepted among the scholars, okay? To me, this is a key to wisdom because once you place your future in the hands of a system, you are dependent on that system and need to produce the systems accepted results. That's just how it is. So keep in mind, whatever someone's teaching, including me, they're providing information from their preferred narrative. This is why it is important to think for yourself and try to see the underlying narrative. It's impossible to provide unbiased information. You can try really, really hard, but it's not possible to take out all bias. No matter what, even if you're talking about up and down, you have a bias of which direction is up and which direction is down. There's always gonna be a bias, but it is easy to put more effort into it than academia does. So keep in mind that I present researchers on my website that have decent resources and point toward the true narrative. Most of them are specialized in one arena of research, but their conclusions are the most accurate to match what I see as the underlying historical narrative. So you can find a lot of those resources all over profitofwar.home.blog, okay? Lots of YouTube videos, lots of websites, PDF downloads, anything you need to get going on your learning how to think for yourself. So I've put about 20 years into researching as much as possible along every branch of science and religion I could find. So I consider myself a meta-analyst, even though I don't do it exactly the way that meta-analysis is done academically. And I think I've clearly explained why. So I draw conclusions from unbiased data by comparing the research of other people. And what that involves is reading their research, taking out their bias and their preferred narrative, strip it down to the bare data, compare it with everything else, okay? That's how I came across the underlying narrative of history, science, religion, you name it. So I find the resources on my website extremely helpful to explain what I think I'm getting into. What I think that I've hit on is a lot of clues. I think I know it, don't know that I know it, right? I'm gonna be honest. I don't know that I know it. And I think anyone who says, I know the truth, I have it all figured out. Well, they don't have it figured out and they really don't know the truth. They got a quick glimpse right before the train they were on went into a tunnel and they blacked out, all right? So I think the people that I present on my website have better presentations than what I could provide. And they're more entertaining. They're filled with information. They have a lot of research behind them and they have a lot of experience, okay? Now you'll find that a lot of them actually still are dependent on things that I criticize. That's okay because they're pointing toward the truth. That's all you need. So, wanted to drop this bomb on you, on YouTube and encourage you to visit profitofwar.home.blog and check out all the crazy stuff I've written because if you have an open mind and you've seen the detritus of society and you've seen that we're not evolving, we're actually devolving. Things are getting worse and worse and worse. Everyone's losing control and everything's about to fall apart and everybody's screaming for the government to fix it. If you come into my website with an open mind ready to learn, not learn what I'm teaching but use what I teach to boost your own research, okay? You go into that, it will blow your mind and change your life, hopefully for the better. So, be blessed and blessed. Yahuwah bless you.

Because according to chan quiver who spoke to my good friend Who I mentor the young up-and-coming reyvanna shout out to reyvanna, you know from TYT Says that Hassan Played a basketball game with Dave Rubin. We're having a ball And that Dave Rubin Crossed him up i.e. did a crossover and or took him to the rec so bad That Hassan's back injuries that he complains about are literally from Dave Rubin I mean, you know, as the kids would say Sounds like Dave Rubin blew Hassan back out. Um now when asked now Formerly known as Andre Demi's brother Q Now when Hassan asked Q to come on and talk about, you know, when the riots were happening, you know Hassan's always looked at Q to you know, give him a good perspective, you know things like that, right? Q actually on twitter said hey, you know Your uncle and things like that the streets are saying that you got crossed up by Dave Rubin Hassan replied now, you know the number one Money-making political streamer in our ecosystem.  I mean I literally covered a three-part series about how in Tennessee they're jailing those kids these They were gelling these kids for made-up crimes, etc But right now this is a basketball issue. This supersedes that as a black issue. Okay, Hassan All right, like this is the number one issue in in in black America on as far as twitch right now Dave Rubin crossing anyone up. First of all, apparently Dave Rubin is six feet tall Dave Rubin six feet tall. I was like, okay, so he can ball apparently we can ball We need a fact check on this.  This is corroborated by Ray Mono, but listen to me Mike I have contacted one of the Upper echelon the face of TYT. I will not reveal who they are and I texted I said, hey You know Hassan blah blah blah this and that like do you think you can come on? You know, they were like even if it's just for 15 minutes. I am busy, but I will pull up I will I was like, so I've been tweeting Hassan Q tweeted Hassan this and that And he's not replying Now it's okay to ask black people to come on his show This and that and the other to cover it. We good with that, right? That's cool. I told you Hassan always been cool, right?  Let me say something if Dave Rubin crossed me up I'm committing a flagrant foul on that court right then in there. Okay.  Okay. That's not gonna happen.   Hey, can you guys ask Hassan? Why?    That's the Drake stimulus. This is a Hassan stimulus right here Okay, I'm done This this is the most investigative journalism I've seen on something since fucking uh Watergate like this is this is incredible the digging that you did to uncover the details I mean Mike, I literally I literally have teamed with brook been kowsky on this anti-mass stuff Shout out to brook been kowsky one of the best debunkers in the world in america and I told her about this. She's like what This happened quite delicious, you know, the real mic. Thank you being humanist report means to thank you for covering the real issue This isn't about Hassan and all the money he make in the mansion No, no, no, no, no, no because when you step on that court Hassan, it's just you Okay, it's just you can't nobody save you But you can save yourself getting roasted from black people on twitch by a period on the show That's all you got to do Honestly, if if him going on your show stops him from getting roasted I honestly would make the case that this is good for the left overall Like we have to bury this story and if you're actually threatening to release this story This could hurt the left. I mean, you know, I mean We're not trying to expand on it, but we need him there We need him to show up if you could just ask your fans to ask him You know, I'm just the innocent american immigrant with questions Okay Folks No, you know what col you don't get to play that when you're trying to give dav rubin credibility Dave rubin This is serious It gives dav rubin the credibility. You're right You're right every day. He ignores us It gives credibility to dav rubin that you got done dirty on that basketball The thought of dav rubin like actually one upping anyone on anything It does it does honestly hurt me and sends me to a dark place So I want it to be wrong, but I suspect that is true But I would love for his son to go on your program. Thank you and debunk this I I absolutely unequivocally endorse this because to son we have to bury this story It it can't I mean col's not bluffing col's gonna release No release the no is gonna spill it. He's gonna release the tapes Is there tapes?  This is a serious situation and I'm Either way either way, um, I hope that the best outcome is is what happens and that is to protect the left By never giving dav rubin a win. So he's on their program The perspective that yes, it is harming the left The entire left.  Thank you so much man out of everything we could have said all the political stuff I could have covered This was this is the real issue. Thank you so much Mike. Well, why isn't anybody else talking about this? I feel like this is kind of a big thing I don't know man. A lot of people Would you would you let me just ask because you're basically You're you're you're on the ground now.  Yes, um, would this make me a journalist for covering this Do I get to graduate from commentator to journalist for cover? This is pollitzer level This is pollitzer level revelations here Because like I said, you have the face and I told you who it was offline The face of tyt who says absolutely even if it's just 15 men, you know how busy they are Okay, and then you have ray vana from tyt I mean come on like like is hassan afraid Did he leave tyt because of what happened with day ruben? We don't know All right, we can only ask him How quickly the left wants to eat their own I know we're trying to stop it. We're trying to I I said marcus. We're part of the problem That's like vets. Don't do it to him. Please. Let's just wait and marcus like, okay All right, you know Well, I mean the bed. I mean I say I have to say it's a song.  Only time will tell when you when you come on


I've used the 2018 World Migration Report in several ways in my work. Firstly, I've used it as a wonderful teaching tool, so I recently taught a new course called Migration and Human Rights at the Harvard Kennedy School. It's a graduate level course for a broad range of different students from the government department or policy but also from the law school and from the School of Public Health and a range of different disciplinary backgrounds. And I found that several of the chapters were just perfect as introductory overview pieces for introducing the students to a topic such as, for example, the rate of migration in different parts of the world, who's going in, who's going out, or some of the questions, some of the other questions about ethics and so on. And also I think some of the graphics are really useful. They're very clear, they're concise, they're accessible, they're power-pointable. So I would say that's one really big use and I think I'm going to carry on doing that. It's really a great resource. Secondly, I've used it myself just to get a sense of a broad consensus overview, which I may or may not always agree with. It's not an in-depth, obviously not an in-depth peer-review source, but it's a very useful, very well-written, competent, lucid account of consensus position on central issues. And so I've used it as well when I'm giving talks or lectures as something to quote and something to draw people's attention to. I think it's not only, as I say, is it very well-written but also nicely researched and so you can check the footnotes. People who want to find out more can look at the footnotes and deepen their knowledge. So it's something I really commend to people as a useful overview of a particular topic.
