Gold & Silver and Christianity

Revelation 13:16-18

16
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

The above verses of Revelation are some of the most well known in the Christian Bible. They foretell of a future where the average citizen is part of a worldwide economic / political system that requires membership to participate in the buying and selling of all goods. I imagine such a future must have seemed hard to imagine for Christians just a few generations ago. However, today with all our finances in digital form and duly reported to the government by our employers, banks, and starting in 2011 even eBay will start reporting sales by its vendors to Uncle Sam, the monolithic central control envisioned by the verses in Revelation 13 seem frighteningly plausible!

How can the average bible-believing Christian prepare for the ominous future ahead when faced with the awesome power of the future antichrist's regime? In a few words, gold and silver. Gold and silver have been valued by mankind for over 5000 years of civilization. The government fears and distrusts gold and silver for many reasons, chief of which is the ability of the two precious metals to provide a trading currency that is outside its control and purview. An owner of gold and silver coins, whether they be 90% junk silver American coins minted before 1965, American Silver Eagles, or metal rounds and bars, possesses a means to provide for his family without forced submission to the Antichrist's all-encompassing system of economic control.

If you don't own gold and silver, buy what you can afford ASAP! The life and souls of your family may well be at stake!

PS. I want to comment on Ezekiel 7:19 "They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumbling-block of their iniquity".

Firstly, the verse is referring to the literal end of the world. In particular, the lines chastise those who covet and love gold & silver money above all things. It promises that no relief will be found for such materialists on that fearful day in earthy possessions. However, until that day arrives (like a thief in the night), we will still be expected to clothe and feed our families and ourselves to the best of our abilities. History tells us that gold and silver have served mankind well for over 5000 years in the capacity of "real money", and should continue to be of value for as long as needed.

Time is running out fast! Hyperinflation seems unavoidable as fiat paper money is being printed as fast as the US presses can run. To protect your wealth and your family, buy gold and silver now from these top companies, APMEX Gold and Silver and GoldSilver.com.

Dream Gold Mine or Nightmare?

In 1894, an angel allegedly appeared to an ordinary, unremarkable Mormon by the name of John Hyrum Koyle and guided him to a mountaintop on the outskirts of Salem, Utah. Inside the mountain the heavenly figure showed him nine vast caverns of gold. According to the story as imparted by the angel, this gold once belonged to an extinct tribe of ancient Americans, but was hidden away from them due to their greed by God. The angel further revealed to Koyle that this gold was to be discovered prior to the Second Coming of Christ, when it would serve to help the faithful survive the tribulations of the end times. Koyle purchased a claim here and began mining operations, selling stock to local faithful who believed in his vision. By the 1940s, however, no gold was forthcoming. Koyle was excommunicated by his Mormon church in 1948 and died a year later.

Koyle's dream turned into a nightmare for him and his foolish investors, but you can realize your own dreams of financial independence by buying real physical gold and silver now!

Gold or Silver for Survival Trading?

A financial disaster (severe hyperinflation, SHTF, TEOTWAWKI, or a complete US dollar collapse) has occurred. Things are finally improving, and law and order is restored to your area. People and businesses are buying and selling again. Some people are using barter, but carrying around a basket of tomatoes while looking for someone with eggs is tiring to say the least. What type of gold or silver would be best to have on hand at this point to make commerce easier?

Let's review junk silver (pre-1965 US coins), American Silver Eagles (ASE's), and Gold coins and their utility in a post-economic disaster trading environment. Junk silver coins like dimes, quarters, and halves can be thought of as singles, fives, and ten dollar bills respectively. An ASE is like a twenty and a ten dollar bill. A gold ounce coin is like a thousand dollar bill.

I believe junk silver coins and ASE's will have the most utility in trading due to their lower value. When you buy food and gas today you usually use lower denomination bills because it's easy for the business you're patronizing to make change. Imagine the look on a convenience store clerk's face if you paid for your twenty dollar purchase with a thousand dollar bill! Chances are he'd turn you away because he couldn't make change. I imagine the same thing would happen after a dollar collapse as well. If you're dead set on having some gold coins, then purchase the one-tenth of an ounce US gold coins. They demand a higher premium than one ounce coins, but at least they're more like a hundred dollar bill - large, but not too big to make change.

Preparing for Hyperinflation

Hyperinflation by definition is 50% or more of inflation per month! The US Dollar is an inherently worthless piece of paper, un-backed by gold, silver, oil, or any object of real value. The moves by the FED to devalue the dollar and destroy it's once lofty reputation for stability are foolish and possibly traitorous. Many citizens of this once great nation are asking themselves what they can do to prepare for the inevitable decline and fall of the US Dollar. I recommend the following list of preparations:

1. Food & Water - Store a least a few months of food and water for your family. Survival food like Meals-Ready-To-Eat (MRE's) and dehydrated foods by Mountain House are ideal. They keep for years and require little cooking preparation.During periods of hyperinflation food and water disruptions will occur, and periodic lawlessness, riots etc., will disrupt transportation of vital foodstuffs. Supermarkets will run out of various foods, and prices will soar. A supply of food and water will keep you and your family off the streets during times of violence.

2. Medicine - Keep a supply of over-the-counter painkillers in stock and a few months supply of any vital drugs you take. If you can find a friendly doctor, get him to prescribe some emergency antibiotics. If not, I've heard of people who buy antibiotics for fish which are commonly available at pet stores and in pet catalogs. I can't say personally, but the scuttlebutt is that the same factories that make "fish antibiotics" also make drugs for humans as well. Do your own research and obey all US laws is the best advice I can give here.

3. Self Defence - If you're an anti-gun pacifist skip this part and pray to whatever god or gods you believe in. Everyone else, buy rifles, shotguns, and Glock handguns with ammo and learn to shoot them. During hyperinflation law and order can break down, at least temporarily. You can't count on the police or 911.

4. Buy physical silver and gold and store it safely at home where you can get at it easily. Safety deposit boxes can be robbed, expropriated by a hostile government, or made unavailable by "bank holidays". Pre-1965 US dimes, quarters, and halves are 90% silver and were once used as real money in the US. American Silver Eagles are also good to have as a trading resource. They are minted by the US Government and are official currency, and contain one ounce of pure silver. APMEX and Ebay are good sources for both types of coins.

Time is running out fast! Hyperinflation seems unavoidable as fiat paper money is being printed as fast as the US presses can run. To protect your wealth and your family, buy gold and silver now from these top companies (below):

Gold & Silver and Hyperinflation



The definition of hyperinflation is 50% or more inflation per month! Hyperinflation has been the inevitable fate of all paper or fiat money unbacked by gold or silver since the Chinese first invented the idea a thousand years ago.

Hyperinflation robs the middle classes, the poor, and the retired on fixed incomes who don't own real assets like gold, silver, oil, food etc. In the picture on the left you see a German woman in 1923 using near worthless German banknotes as fuel for her cooking fire!

The only Germans who avoided starvation and impoverishment were those with the foresight to purchase and hold real money like gold and silver coins. Review the chart below and see how the prices of gold and silver climbed as the German paper mark lost value:

Weimar Germany hyperinflation prices of gold and silver in Marks from 1919 - 1923 by month. Charts are also presented to visually depict the speed and magnitude of the change. Remember these are months not years. Consider the human story behind the numbers. How did people survive?

So if you had 1 oz of Silver and sold it Nov 30, 1923 you would have been a Billionaire. If you had 1 oz of gold and sold it Nov 30, 1923 you would have been a trillionaire. How much that bought you is not told. But I am sure those people that had gold and silver survived better then those who didn't.

The Pathetic, Willfully Ignorant, Anti-Gold Argument!


Buy Gold Online Today at APMEX.com

I have reprinted the moronic article below, with my comments immediately following (in bold), to help illustrate the "mindset" of the average sheeple towards the sanity of precious metal investing. May God preserve us from these poor, trusting, ignorant sheep for whom the slaughter is soon to come! PS. Be patient. You have to read through their pathetic "attempt" at humor in the first part of the article.

Bed Bugs, Stink Bugs and Gold Bugs – What’s the difference?

October 22, 2010

Evidently Bugs are all the rage today. We have Bed Bugs Infesting New York City, we have Stink Bugs infesting Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and we have Gold Bugs infesting the entire country.

Let’s define Stink Bugs, Generally they look like this vile creature:

Stink Bugs infest your home, your car and your house. You can’t kill them because they let out a vile smell that is similar to having a skunk bomb your living room. So you have to vacuum them up, or do like what most residents of Pennsylvania do, use a tissue and pick up that thing and drop it in the toilet and flush it down.

These vile animals are not from America, they were imported by Toyota in the 1990′s from Japan, rumour has it that some car salesman in Allentown. PA opened up the Toyota to make a sale… saw those stink bugs sitting there… he killed one one of them… learned why they are called “stink bugs” and then proceeded to swoosh them off rather than killing them so the client didn’t see them (or smell them).

10 years later, the entire North East is infected with them as birds won’t even eat them due to the stench. Sounds like a terrible Zombie movie.

Let’s define Bed Bugs, Generally they look like this vile creature:

This isn’t a joke. Bed Bugs are vampires. Sink Bugs are terrible because they are highly annoying. Bed Bugs are terrible because they drink human blood. They sneak up on you in the middle of the night and feast on your blood. They live for a year without any food, but they do wait.. and wait they do until you sleep.. they smell the carbon dioxide from your breath and they flock to feast on your blood while you sleep.

They inject a small dosage of anaesthetic so you don’t feel the bite and wake up, then they eat you until they are full.

Wonderful beasts.

They used to be controlled via a pesticide called DDT but it’s been banned due to serious side effects. In other words that “cure” is worst than the Bed Bugs themselves.

Let’s define Gold Bugs, Generally they look like this vile creature:

This is the worst of the worst. Bed Bugs are vampires, stink bugs are skunks, but Gold Bugs… wow they are an amazing breed.

Many of them believe that the entire economic system is abound to collapse. They are in the process of buying Gold Coins, Guns and Ammo and building their bunker stocked with food clothing. They are storing Gold coins to barter when “cash becomes worthless and the economy collapses”.

They are stocking up on Guns and Ammo because they feel that “they are the only ones prepared for the eventual end of the world” And you can’t forget the daily candle night reading of the Bible.

These people are the definition of Gold Bugs. They do come in many forms. Some of “smarter ones” are “Silver Bugs” because they feel that Gold is too much currency to do daily trades. Others mass in other types of assets. But the strategy is the same, horde up because everyone will be coming to you for product X or Y because you’re the only guy in town with it.

The end result is that these people feel with a mix of hyperinflation, unemployment and total debt in the US it has nowhere to go but bad.

So there you have it people, the three major bugs in the media today, all on one article.

Enjoy the new reality.

Is The Silver Boom Over?


Is the silver boom over? Has everyone caught up and overbought the market, like the internet stock boom and the real estate home markets? In a word, no.

My proof for the above claim? Ask your neighbors (or yourself) to identify the large picture above. Give up? Don't feel bad, the vast majority of Americans have never seen one of these things much less owned one of these beautiful coins. Hint: they are one troy ounce of silver and are official US currency denominated as a $1.00 coin. Theoretically, you could spend it to buy a pack of gum at 7-11 or pay your taxes. Of course, you would have to be a complete moron to do so since each coin is currently selling for around $25.00 per, the spot price of silver on 10/08/10 plus a $2.00 per coin premium.

Answer: It's an American Silver Eagle, the most famous and widely collected silver bullion coin in the world minted by the US Mint since 1986. Millions are sold each year, but if you split all the ASE coins previously minted among all US citizens there wouldn't be more than one per person! I ask you, is that overbought? The US Mint has already made $35 billion dollars in worthless base metal quarters for their "State Quarter" program. Now, if that's not an outrageous example of overbought (and overproduced) I just don't know the meaning of the term!

The vast majority of Americans have barely begun to wake up to the value of precious metals like gold and silver again after years of mind-numbing fiat currency (paper money not backed by gold or silver, or indeed, anything...real). Even should everyone suddenly wake up and start to buy silver, the yearly supply of 650 million ounces is only enough for each American to purchase 2 ounces per year for about $45 per citizen (or the cost of a date night movie with popcorn and candy). Of course, if this country-wide buying were to occur it would leave absolutely nothing for industry which is finding more uses for silver everyday from new hybrid car batteries to antibacterial bandages.

I knew the real estate bubble was getting ready to burst when my highly fiscally conservative brother, Mike, started talking about buying houses and fixing them up as an easy route to riches a few years ago just before the bust. So far, despite cajoling him for the last 2 years, I haven't talked him into buying even one ounce of silver. To be fair, however, he's in good company still. Only a fraction of 1% of Americans own any actual physical silver or gold coins, bars, rounds etc. Not much of an "overbought bubble" to my way of thinking! Compare that tiny ownership number to the number of troubled "under water" homeowners who bought houses they couldn't really afford in the last 10 years! In fact, a recent article stated that one home is foreclosed upon every minute of every day! Now that's overbought!

In conclusion, I'm not going to worry about the precious metal bubble bursting until my stick-in-the-mud brother starts stocking up along with all his average American friends on Gold and Silver American Eagles and pre-1965 "junk" 90% silver coinage (dimes, quarters, halves, dollars)! Maybe I should start a newsletter with a subscription fee and call it "My Brother Mike End of Bubble Newsletter". I could make thousands!

Silver and gold still have a long way to go in an uncertain economy, unconscionably high multi-trillion dollar debt, inflation and coming hyperinflation, governmental idiocy, and a world that is growing increasingly sick of our wars, deficit spending, free health care giveaways etc.

Time is running out fast! Hyperinflation seems unavoidable as fiat paper money is being printed as fast as the US presses can run. To protect your wealth and your family, buy gold and silver now from these top companies, APMEX Gold and Silver and Silver American Eagles.
