Proceedings Podcast Ep. 285: Gorbachev and Reagan

This is a YouTube of a podcast by the U.S. Naval Institute.  This podcast discusses a book by Major Benjamin Griffin, titled Reagan's War Stories: A Cold War Presidency.  The podcast is about Reagan and Gorbachev.  The relationship they maintained, after they met in Geneva in 1985.  Bill Hamblet is the host.  He interviews Mr. Griffin.  Griffin focused a lot on SDI, popularly known as "Star Wars".  They speak about the Great Communicator, President Ronald Reagan.  When Reagan died, Gorbachev visits Reagan's funeral, and gave his casket a pat.  This caused a stir.  The podcast goes into the break up of the Soviet Union.  How Gorbachev was a failure, but that according to Griffin, he failed in ways that helped out.  Putin didn't attend the funeral.  The corruption in the Soviet Union was so corrupt that it collapsed, according to Hamblet and that Putin's Russia is also corrupt.  His legacy is that he was the last Soviet Leader, and his goal was not lining his own pockets.  Unlike what people say of Putin.  That Putin is lining his own pockets with the Russian Oligarchs.  There was a skit about Reagan and the Iran Contra mentioned.  Which is really just fake news.  But i thought i would mention it, it is available on YouTube.

The Messiah Comes

  I have written a number of times, about persecution.  already, in some form it is here.  Before Trump got re-elected, the Biden administration was targeting specific churches.  But the coming Persecution will dwarf Rome, in America.  The Left hates Jews and Christians.  They show this animosity, by allowing Muslims to practice there faith, but not Christians and Jews.   Make no mistake, the Muslim is NOT our enemy.  They are here to hear the Gospel.  This is why GOD has allowed them in.  They are descendants of Ishmael!  GOD has not forgotten him, nor Hagar.  The purpose of the Left allowing Islam in the West, and in America, is to foment revolution.   According to David Jeremiah, we cannot hide our faith.  We need to stand up, and be counted as GOD's People.  Remembering, that He has control.  This is what he said at the end of this informative message.   He suggests, that this week, i...
