"No
one can serve two masters. He will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You
cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I tell you, do
not worry about your life-- what you shall eat or drink-- or about your body--
what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than
clothing?
"Look at the birds in the sky. They do not sow or
reap. They gather nothing into barns, yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are
not you more important than they? Can any of you, by worrying, add a single
moment to your life span?
"Why are you anxious about clothes? Learn from
the way the wildflowers grow. They do not work or spin. But I tell you that not
even Solomon in all his splendour was clothed like one of them. If God so
clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown into the oven
tomorrow, will He not much more provide for you, oh you of little faith?
"So do not worry and say, what are we to eat? Or
what shall we drink? Or what are we to wear? All these things the pagans seek.
Your Heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
"But seek first the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry
about tomorrow. Tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its
own evil."

This
is Mejanomics with a Friend of
Medjugorje.
[A
FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Victor
Hanson is a never-Trumper. A never-Trumper is someone who says, though they may be a Republican
or on the side of the right or conservative, they will never be for Trump. And
yet, when they say something that aligns with Trump or supports him, theyre in
a quandary of why would you be a never-Trumper?
Victor Hanson was interviewed. Hanson lives in California as a farmer. He lives
and works on a farm. He works at the Hoover institute and he occasionally goes
to the think tank in Stanford, which is comprised of Conservative never-Trumpers.
So,
he answers this question about California being a third world state. Quote, It
has all the symptoms of what we associate with a failed state. Its got the
highest basket of income taxes, gasoline taxes, sales taxes, and yet the
schools are rated in the last 10% of the nations test scores. Thats very
telling. Thats factual. Thats no opinion. He continues, quote, One third
of the nations welfare recipients live in California.
A fifth of the population is below the poverty line.
This
is crazy. One third of the nations welfare recipients live in California? One fifth of the population below the poverty
line? The quote continues, A fifth of the homeless people in the United
States live in California. And yet, he says, We have the most
billionaires of any state in the nation, and then we have the largest
underclass. What does that tell you? It is a third world state. So he says quote, Governor Newsom got it exactly wrong.
Twenty-five years ago when we had Proposition 187.
Now, Im not sure what proposition that is because they did have the tax
roll-back, but I assume this is speaking about something that took place, was
rolling back the taxes, etc.
He
continues about the Proposition 187 that, Passed by 59% of the population.
It was very popular, but three days later, a federal court invalidated it and
got rid of it. So here it is, almost 60% of California voted for this, and
a federal judge comes and changes it.
This is why were very
sick. This is where we dont know where were going because we try to go a
direction, we get defeated. This is where we are today. But referring to
California as a third-world state, Hanson continues and says in
regard to the proposition being rolled back, quote, It made people
want to come to California often illegally, and they resided there illegally.
That was the unfortunate part of the perfect storm where at the same time,
six-million people over the next 25 years says, If Im going to pay the
highest basket of taxes and get the worst roads, infrastructure, public
schools, and among the highest crime rates, then I might as well go to where
theres no income taxes. Thats the summation of his answer and we have
the same thing now happening in South America with the most
richest blessed country in South America. And thats our read today.
[RUTH]
The name
of this article is How 7.4 Tons of Venezuelas Gold Landed in Africa and
Vanished.
The government of Venezuelas presidents Nicolas
Maduro is selling off his countrys gold reserves. Some of it has passed
through a secretive operation in East Africa, a gambit that evades U.S.
sanctions. On two early March flights, at least 7.4 tons of gold, with a market
value over three hundred million dollars moved from Venezuela to a refinery in
Uganda, says officials in Venezuela and Uganda. A foreign diplomat in
Venezuelan opposition law makers who have concluded Mr. Maduros governments
exported the ingots.
Washington has recognized opposition leader, Juan G,
as Venezuelas legitimate president, slapped financial and other sanctions on
Venezuelan officials and institutions and threatened penalties for others doing
business with the regime. The standoff between the two leaders is reverberating
beyond Venezuela with some 50 countries joining the U.S. and backing Mr. Guedo while others side with Mr. Maduro. What was once
Latin Americas richest economy is starving. Its oil
sales have dwindled, and citizens are suffering through day-long power outages
and shortages of basic goods.
[A
FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
Liberalism
is destroying California. Its turning into a third-world state. One-third of
all welfare recipients are in California, as youve already heard. Im driving
to the point to educate you about what we want to discuss today. Its important
for you to reason things out. Ask yourself what was just read, Latin
Americas richest economy is starving. Its oil sales have dwindled, and its
citizens are suffering through loss of power, shortages of basic goods.
What
are basic goods? What does this mean? Why are they selling gold? This should
say something to you. What was just read the article continues and says that, Gold
sales are one of the governments final financial lifelines. That statement
you need to contemplate because when everything goes down, the last thing, the
last reserve, is gold and silver. So, what happens if they didnt have the
gold? If this is a lifeline, theyre over! Its history. And what happened in
California is headed this way, and actually, our
nation is in 20 trillion dollars of debt. Can we pay that back? I dont see
how. Can you see how? We dont have that kind of wealth in the nation even
though were wealthy.
So what happens? After a
final lifeline and your golds not there, you dont have anything, you have
nothing to back it up, you have an exponential escalation of what was stated
about Latin America. You say, Well, Americas well off. Everything is going
great. That was happening to Venezuela also. Theyd been there and done
that. Theyre a copy, theyre an image, theyre a prototype of what happens in
modern times when everything goes south. And we can look to South America of
where they ended up. Is this in our future? Our Lady has said, what you heard
me say over and over, Everythingis passingeverything is falling apart, only
the glory of God remains
Our
economic system, the way its usury, how the investments, what its about, is
greed and makes more money, is not glorifying God and it will crash. It cannot
stay with Our Lady staying with us without the consequences of one or the other
goes away.
In
Boston, the great scandal in the Church, and Our Lady appearing in Boston at
Ivans house where he lived cant stay. One or the other is going to go, for
the whole world! For the whole United States, all the way to the Vatican,
Ireland, all these countries, Australia, everywhere! This broke in this little
spot on the earth called Boston because the Virgin Mary was there. And She
cant stay here on this earth with the system that is anti-God, doesnt glorify
God, and then its going to stay up. And She defines it. Thats why She said, Everythingis
passing She ends the sentence with, only the glory of God remains
So,
this is in our future. Its just holy reasoning. Its through fasting and
prayer you will see these things. You have to make
moves. Everybody needs oil! Venezuela is one of the richest places for oil. But
their sales are dwindling. You can say thats because nations have embargoed
their oil. But still, its still the consequences of something that hasnt
glorified God.
And
so, when youre suffering like that, what are the basic things you need? There
is suffering in Venezuela from basic goods. What are your basic goods? Its the
most simple things, the things that we have the most
plenty of, and you have to think about, if something happens, where are you
going to get these things? Where are you going to get salt? Where are you going
to get water? We have a lot of water coming into our houses because its so
vital for our life. You can go without food for 30 days. You cant go without
water for one day. Two thousand six hundred years ago in Corinth, in Greece,
they had running water to the houses. That running water to the houses was
metered. They paid for it. Thats how vital water was. Thats how advanced they
were. And so the basic goods will be things that you
take for granted. Its not about getting great steak or going and doing
something else.
Were
headed for trouble. One of your greatest crosses, one of the most arduous works
will be carrying water. Where are you going to get it? Just look at this at
what happened in Venezuela. And look at the state of California. They cant
survive. And New York is doing the same thing. Where will it come from? So, the
observation from the United States and other officials of gold sales of
Venezuela is one of the governments final financial lifelines. Do you want to
wait for that to happen here? Do you want to wait for that to happen in
California?
This is why I wrote It
Aint Gonna
Happen. And its about usury. Its about the economic system. Re-read this.
It was published in 2010 and we designed the Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Round
for the purpose of not investment, but for the purpose of preservation. Why? We
can get inside into why by what Thomas Jefferson wrote. He says, Private
fortunes are destroyed by public as well as private extravaganzas. Are we
in that state of our life now and economy and the world? He continues and he
says, And this is a tendency of all human governments. Thats what
happened in Venezuela. Thats whats going on in California and this infection
is going to go all around the world. Its all in Europe.
He
continues, A departure from principle is one instance becomes a precedent
for a second. So see, now they have the last
riches in Venezuela, which is gold, and they go to there, and then that
precedent, if thats gone, goes to the next, which is destruction. He
continues, That second, for a third, and so on until the bulk of the
society is reduced to a mere misery and to have no sensibilities left but for
sinning and suffering. Is that where were headed? These men, 250 years
ago, had wisdom. Even though that was long ago, principles dont change. What
goes around comes around. Throughout history, history repeats itself over and
over.
One
of our teachers when I was in grammar school taught us that history always
repeats itself and one of the kids came in, Anthony Vacarella,
he comes in the room while were saying that. He says, Why are you late?
That was on a Thursday, from what I remember. The next Thursday, he came in
late again and he pointed to him and he said, See I told you, history
repeats itself. Thats why I can remember that. Youve got to make things
tangible when youre talking to your kids. But even when youre trying to make
points. Because theyre alive. We have so many points Our Ladys making in front
of us and to us and speaking to us that Shes teaching throughout the day where
were headed and that why is everything falling apart and what is the future of
the world?
What
is the future of your world? Are you making decisions now, in the time of grace
so that that grace can come back to you and your loved ones and be in the best
situation that is imperfect compared to how we live today? Jefferson in another
quote said, Im not afraid of people. Because hes of the people. He
said, They are not rich. And he says, Our dependence for continued
freedom is not threatened by that. And he says, For us to preserve our
independence we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.
Thats where we are today. Will that cause us to fall apart? Why? Does it
glorify God? Ask these questions to yourself.
He continues and finishes this quote saying, We must make our
elections between economy and liberty our profusion and servitude.
Profusion is like overabundance. There are things we dont need. All these
things, when you look at them, are telling us where were headed. And thats
why Our Lady says, Use this time of grace so it will go well for you.
I
know that the White House last November announced sanctions to stop Venezuelas
gold sales. The point that needs to be made here is when everybody gets in
trouble, it will always come down to gold and silver. Precious metals. Why?
Because the currencies are paper. The currencies mean nothing. Our dollar bill
means nothing. This is a display of truth, that man, no matter hes religious,
paganistic, loves God, believes in God, no matter what position, no matter
Democrat, Republican, no matter what ways, they know where to go to when you
hit the bottom of the basket. And its going to be gold and its going to be
silver. That says something. We see this now in real time. This is a
self-exposing truth that these things have intrinsic value. Why? Because God
made them and He made them rare, and He made them with extraordinary properties
for what they do, not just in the currencies, but also in consideration of
uses. Its an amazing thing. Those things are discussed in It Aint Gonna Happen. You need
to re-read that. Its critical where we are today, in our economy that you
re-read this to reinvigorate your thoughts to make you think about these points
were making that is being showed to us by Venezuela, California, and other
places around the world. Its already happening.
But
see, man always wants to come up with his plan. Everybody is always trying to
take the investments. Dave Ramsey is a financial advisor and hes well known.
He was asked about investing in silver. Somebody asked him, I got $8,000
worth of silver. And he says this, quote, Ramsey, When you play
precious metals, you are gambling with about the same odds as playing a
blackjack hand. You are not investing, you are speculating. This thing can go
south in a hurry. This is gambling and I would get out of it. He says, Some
people are speculating in gold which would be on the greed side of the profit
motivation side.
I
totally disagree with this person. Hes the king of financial advice supposedly
now. But hes dead wrong on this. This is not about speculation. This is not an
investment. This is about preservation. And hes dead wrong in what hes
saying. Ramsey says the gold thing is driven by fear versus if I buy a piece of
real estate, if I buy a $300,000 rental house, I have income from that. See,
everything is about money. He says gold is on the greed side. No. Buying rental
houses and doing investments, thats more on the greed side than gold. Hes
saying just the opposite. Hes like a pied piper and hes telling people to go
to these investments.
Do
you realize what real estate costs in 1929 after the Crash? Its real value.
The real value of agricultural land is $200-$300 an acre. Everything above that
is speculative. A depression like 1929 just brings everything back to the real
value of what it is. Thats what an economic collapse does, and you find out
what the real price is. So, hes speculating in a $300,000 rental house. Hes
speculating everything that he does. Its all about real estate. Real estate in
1950, here, compared to today, the land in this valley is up to $15,000 an
acre. In 1950, just a few decades ago, you could buy an acre of land here for
$1. I know some of the older people here who bought the land for $1. And I can
tell you I bought four acres down the road for $400 an acre in 1980. And what
do you think for $400 now to $15,000. Thats speculation.
Dont
put your faith in what the investment people are saying. Its not about the
investments. Its about preservation. In regard to
Ramsey, let me give you an example of what hes talking about. Facebook is
going to get in the game of the bitcoin. We did a broadcast about this before.
You should look it up. You need to listen to that broadcast in tandem with this
one. Tell people how they can get to that.
[REYES]
So,
the name of the broadcast that a Friend of Medjugorje is referring to is the
August 9, 2018 broadcast titled The Number One Enemy of the Banks. And
you can find that if you go to mej.com and click on the Past Shows and
click on the 2018 tab and just scroll down to The Number One Enemy
of the Banks. You could also just search the site and then just type in
the word tulips and it will be the only response there.
[A
FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
And
its important to listen to that. Now Facebook is planning to launch their own
crypto currency. And its going to be a game changer for bit coins because
theyre so big. So, how do you do that? And a lot of people have gotten rich
out of this. Its a big investment. But what are they buying? Nothing. If you
want a glass of milk, and theres no milk in it, its just glass, theres
nothing there. And if somebody tells you theres milk, theres milk inside this
glass, well I dont see it, well pretend it is. And thats what a bitcoin is.
And thats what crypto currencies are. Theres nothing there in the glass.
There are no coins.
Oh,
they may make a token. It has no value except that you can sell it to somebody
else. So, when bitcoins came on the scene, they said you could go buy pizza,
you could go buy a car, you can do these things, you can trade them. Nobodys
buying no pizza! Nobody is going to come to our giftshop here at Caritas and
say, Hey, weve got 20 bitcoins. We dont want that. Were not selling
nothing. Whos selling by bitcoins? So, it phased out into the idea that
permeated people, Well, this is going to be currency. Except nobodys
buying it for that. Theyre buying it because somebody else will pay them more
than what they paid, and thats how they make their money.
Ive
got a third cousin thats got a million and a half dollars, I think hes only
20 years old, because he got into bitcoins. Im going to send him a message
back, Get out now! Because, basically, if you get out, you got money.
But its going to crash, and its going to go away, because theres nothing
there. Its the system that more people who get into the game makes more money
for those doing it, and theyre thinking the same thing. Its just going to go, its just going to go. In that broadcast we were talking
about earlier, only two or three people at the top of what they created in what
comparable of what would be a bitcoin, a few centuries ago, where thousands of
other people lost everything they had.
So,
this is a signs of the time. Facebook is going to
create something out of nothing and it wont even buy
a pizza, because what pizza place is going to even accept it? Its a lie. This
is not glorifying God. This is going away. So, the Ramseys,
the Facebooks, all these things, you dont have to throw it in the garbage
heap. Its going to throw itself in there. Thats going to happen. And its
going to reverberate through our whole system.
So,
what is the real truth of where you should put your
money? Dont put it in the bank. The bank is not going to give you anything.
Have it saved in this other something. And Im not
saying youre not investing. Im not condemning you for investing. If you can
make money, make money! Do whatever you want to do. But you need to take a good
portion out of your investments and put it in something thats tangible that
was valuable and its solid. And do you know what that is? No, its not gold.
And its not silver. Its land. Its a pig. Its a
cow. Its a chicken. Its a dairy cow. Its crops. Its a garden. Thats
wealth. Because Ive said many times. We grow grass. Cow eats grass. We eat
cow. Thats the simplest, most basic way what were ordained to do. And you can
do that whether youre an attorney or a doctor or a garbage collector.
Everybody can do that. And thats where you need to go to.
The
reason we do say to go towards silver is because you cant make an immediate
decision to build a system like that. Weve been hitting it for 32 years to
save money for the mission and its arduous. We had to work because we have two
occupations, trying to feed ourselves and run the largest Medjugorje mission in
the world. So you need to look at your investments and
change an investment to preservation, part of it, a good part of it. Half of
it. Because what will come back immediately if someone has something is the
exchange of silver. Gold is awkward. You cant exchange that. Its easy for
storage. But your daily exchange will be silver. So yes, a chicken that you can
get eggs from and a chicken that grows more chickens. Thats wealth. But man
will quickly gravitate towards the two metals. Gold and silver. Silver being
primary.
So,
thats why we developed the Miraculous Medjugorje Round to sanctify your money,
turn it into something, and preserve something when the crash comes, when
everybody wakes up. And also for a short interim to
make sure you preserve it until you can get your agricultural system built.
[REYES]
If someone
wanted to do this and to preserve what they have until they build their system,
well have a little information now from Century Silver Exchange.
[JASON-
CENTURY SILVER EXCHANGE MANAGER]
For
those interested in exchanging their paper dollars for the Miraculous Metal
Medjugorje Silver Round, you can contact Century Silver Exchange by calling
tollfree 877-936-7686. Thats 877-936-7686. You can also visit
centurysilver.com or email info@centurysilver.com. And I
think it would be important here to bring up one more point, and actually quote Thomas Jefferson again to reiterate an idea
that youve expressed several times, a Friend of Medjugorje. And not
necessarily today but over the years with Mejanomics, the critical
importance of owning this physical silver and keeping it in your physical
possession, not on paper, not somewhere else, at a depository, but the highest
and safest form of protecting your wealth in the Miraculous Metal Medjugorje
Round is to have it in your physical possession. Thomas Jefferson said, It
is said that our paper is as good as silver because we may have silver for it
at the bank where it issues, but this is not true. One, two, or three persons
might have it, but a general application for this silver would soon exhaust the
banks supply vaults and lead a ruinous proportion of their paper in its
intrinsic worthless form.
So,
not only to exchange dollars for the Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Silver Round,
but to have it in your physical possession is of utmost importance.
[A
FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
I
would say wow to that because here he is talking two and a half centuries ago
that they had already tricked the people thinking their silver is there because
they can go and exchange it because people dont want it because its more
convenient to have paper. So, they grew in their human nature to get used to it
that, I can go there and get silver dollars. Or, I can get silver
dimes. But people dont like carrying change. I dont like carrying change
in my pocket to this day because its inconvenient. Papers easier. As we
expand these paper dollars, the banks keep less and less because nobody really
wants it.
Now,
this is where we are today. Its an amazing thing how blind weve become.
[JASON-
CENTURY SILVER EXCHANGE MANAGER]
Century
Silver Exchange is a for-profit subsidiary of Caritas of Birmingham. It bears
its own expenses and pays income taxes on its earnings. If there is any income
left over at the end of the year, it may give a dividend donation to Caritas of
Birmingham to further its mission efforts.
[A
FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]
So,
Id like to end with six things about silver. As weve been speaking about, it
offers protection. All these things doing investment, if the turmoil happens theyre going to run to precious metals. That tells
you that the herd, once it stampedes, people get crushed. And then its too
late. But that has always happened. We see in Venezuela. Theyre running to
silver and gold. Weve seen this repeatedly through history. You think you can
escape it? No. Because history repeats itself. Its a no-brainer. In politics,
economics, uncertainties happen. All legal tender takes a backseat. You can
have five-million dollars in one hundred-dollar bills. Its worthless. Its the
white metal that has always been overlooked that people immediately go and
favor. And throughout history, people have always looked to silver over gold
for means of exchange because it plays the same role but its in more of a
daily usage of practical values than changing gold.
The
second thing is tangible money. Cash, stocks, bonds, all these financial
products are accepted as wealth. But theyre not tangible. Theyre digital.
Theyre promissory notes. All these things that make the appearance that youve
got something and that you can sell something and the
other person believes its got value. Silver, on the other hand, is finite. It
is there. Its a tangible asset. And its very unlikely how everything else
crashes, that silver can crash.
You
may lose money on it; you may gain money on it. Its not an investment. Its
preservation. Its survival. Its what Venezuela, again Ive said this point,
but theyre surviving as a final lifeline through their gold. And theyre
doomed because of what Thomas Jefferson said about what governments do.
The
third thing is cheaper than gold and of course its more accessible to use to
buy things. Even today its difficult to take a $100 bill and go buy something.
A lot of times people dont have the change. They dont like that. They want
the 20s; they want the lower denominations. Twenty-dollar bills are silver. One
hundred-dollar bills are gold. Which one do you want when youve got to go buy
a loaf of bread?
The
fourth thing, silver offers higher returns than gold. Why is that? Because
today silver is undervalued but its 1/79 of what a gold bullion would be. That
makes it more affordable. And so, youre going to have more silver at a lower
price compared to gold, and if silver jumps up, youre going to have far more
money that was going to outperform the gold itself.
We
know that silver gained 448% through the period after I wrote It Aint Gonna Happen and while
gold only did 166%. Im telling you that for your confidence. Im not telling
you that to encourage you to invest it. Dont look at it that way.
The
fifth thing is history is on silvers side. Silver has been used not just
hundreds and hundreds of years, but for millennia. That tells you, history
repeats itself, silver and gold. It speaks of its stability. Its there. Its
never going to go away. Actually, its been with
mankinds history throughout civilizations whereas all these yes moneys, fiat
currencies, fall to the wayside. This is the way it works. Because we have a
reassurance that the value is there, always some value.
And
lastly, silver is nonemenity meaning, not everybody
wants their transactions to be part of the public record. So
privacy is associated with silver. And its a benefit of the white metal. So, whether or not you value privacy, it does offer the same
benefit of cash. And that in itself has value.
So,
I close with all these thoughts. I would suggest you listen to this more that one time because theres a lot of facts, a lot of
quotes, a lot of thought. And make your philosophy. Going to Athens, theres so
much philosophy that they had going three millennia that its amazing! Things
that we dont even have today. Some of the stone cutters, the tools that they
make, we cannot duplicate. They were so superior we dont know how to make
them. You say, Well, all this technology, we cant do it? No, they can
tell by the stones and the cuts and how they cut their stones that they put
more effort into that then building these great temples.
So,
were not so advanced. In fact, were very dumb compared to them. Their
mathematic equations and what they build is astounding. That should speak to
you. And listen to this broadcast at least twice. Come back to it a third time,
a week from now, and see if you wont learn more with it because the philosophy Im giving to you is spiritual. And the spiritual
Im giving to you is the messages. And the messages Im giving to you is from
the Holy Virgin Mary. And the Holy Virgin Mary is here because Her Son is
sending Her. And because Her Son is sending Her is for the purpose to change
your direction and the whole worlds direction.
So,
with those thoughts, I say to you, embrace everything, every word, everything
that Our Lady has said to you. Ill be in Medjugorje the next time youll hear
from me. Ill be broadcasting from there for the anniversary. And until that
time, we wish you Our Lady, we love you, goodbye.
