Awakening from a dream that starkly depicted the eternal struggle between light and shadow, I, Arlo Johnson, was compelled to share the insights that spilled forth, painting a vivid landscape of America's political divide. The celestial battle between the Democratic and Republican parties, though grounded in the realm of politics, seemed to echo the timeless warning from the Tree of Knowledge, heralding a nation on the brink. With personal tales such as calling upon prayer to alter the weather, I journey through our current societal tapestry, weaving discussions that stretch from the decline in birth rates to the shifting familial structures haunting countries like Japan. Peering through the lens of faith, I lay bare the moral undercurrents that may well shape the destiny of civilizations teetering on the edge of spiritual disconnection.
Venturing further into the cosmos of thought, the episode orbits the musings of visionary Elon Musk, dissecting his futuristic dreams of space colonization and artificial intelligence. His philosophy of an Earth abundant with space for more human life serves as a backdrop to our spiritual quest for understanding divine intervention and the existence of a grand cosmic plan. It's a passage through humanity's imperfections, our pursuit of moral alignment, and the hope that lies in seeking forgiveness. As we cross into the promise of a new year, we take a moment to dream alongside me—a dream of divine perfection, of a God's Kingdom unfathomable in its splendor—and extend a heartfelt blessing, inviting reflection on the celestial journey that awaits us.

Good evening. It's Arlo Johnson in Vernon, bc, january the 9th, at about 6.15pm. It's a fair amount of snow. People are plowing snow and cleaning up snow, except that it's quite warm. It's in Fahrenheit, it's in like 40, 35 to 40 degrees, still warm. We're going to get a couple cold days coming up. I've told people I said we'll have winter for one and a half days and then it'll warm up. We'll see.
Speaker 1:
Anyway, tonight is something that I thought about the other day. It happened to me a couple nights ago. I lay in bed and I was usually dreaming about things. I got dreaming heavy about what I guess you would call good and evil. The scenario was that I was in the States and then it became so organized against each other, you know, like two factions, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, and what they tried to stand for the idea to get rid of the ones who are causing the bad things to happen is like cashing over the whole idea of good and evil. Remember God said that don't eat out of the tree of good and evil. You do, you will die. Well, that's the argument right now.
Speaker 1:
I went on with this dream, going on about how people are going to be starting to shoot each other and they're going to be killing each other and murdering each other and fighting and going to boil down to that. Finally, I came along in the dream and I said no, this is wrong, wrong, can't do it, this is not right. I mean, I'm still dreaming. Then I said in my dream. I said this is the reason why Jesus Christ is coming back to this earth. He's the only one who can deal with good and evil. And I said that's the reason. That's why I think, as far as I'm concerned, that is the reason he's coming back here. He's going to deal with this world for a thousand years with a rod of iron. He said we will deal with it with a rod of iron and that means tough rules. People who break the rules are going to have bad results. Says at one place that if they don't come up to His I forget what it is not His certain celebration deals or whatever that they will not receive rain, they will starve off. They won't tell they do.
Speaker 1:
Now, that's because God controls the weather. Now, that is something that you know. Make your head shake. The weather is ongoing, like there's weather and there's weather and there's other weather, and then there's more weather all around the world happening all that time and God uses weather at times.
Speaker 1:
I mentioned a deal where actually I prayed and I asked God to intervene in the weather for four hours so we could burn this big pile of lumber and brush and construction material. And that happened April 11th and 12th and the records are there. You can look them up if you want. And that came out and the weather changed the way I asked it to be changed. Right in the midst of a deal where there had been a south wind for two weeks and we waited and we needed a north wind, I asked for a soft north wind for four hours and starting at about 7.30 in the morning, that next morning, bingo, a north wind for four hours. And I just looked and I thought, ugh, brief, and I just said thank you very much. And out of that I realized that you know, it quit and turned south in less than four hours, just about four hours, and it's recorded weather forecast, weather deals all got it recorded south all the time. And you know, it seems to me and I'm right or not but that God delights in doing smaller things, not necessarily earth-shattering things all the time To people who trust Him or you know, and I think that's very important. But when you think about the reason that Jesus Christ is going to return to this earth and what has been planned for thousands and thousands of years A plan I listened to people.
Speaker 1:
I listened to Elon Musk on the internet here being interviewed, and he's talking about you know how dire things could get on this planet. He mentioned that Japan is losing population. It used to be like 160 million, or maybe 170 million, I think, and now they're down to 110. And he says it won't be long. They'll be down to 85. And he said it won't survive. And he said our own countries have negative birth rates and that's a result of people doing things against God's will Abortion, not just abortion, not wanting to have children and this has all happened in a generation or two lately and it's gotten more pronounced and it's as a result of selfishness. It creeps into people and I can see plainly like in 90 years I've seen go back our family, for instance, was a large family, go from a large family to down to single-digit deals because people don't want big families. Now why any families? Some of them don't even get married. Some of them will just live together with someone for a while, whatever, and when that starts to happen, things go wrong. You die out and you just like a frog in a pan of water and you can't tell when, when it starts to boil the thing about it.
Speaker 1:
When I was listening to Elon Musk, I could hear, like, the hopelessness of the situation. And he's supposed to be a very smart guy, and he is a smart guy, very smart in certain things, but he keeps talking about, you know, we have to find other planets to go to and this, and that I don't think we decide things like that at all. That's, you know, fantasy and you know to think that artificial intelligence will run the world, and maybe it will, but it won't before that good it'll be. It'll be for something totally different than we're used to now, and people will just lose any of the traits and the things that made people people, humans. They'll end up being like auto thoughts, and I mean they'll just won't have any brain at all. They'll just do exactly what they're told they can't move here, they can't move there. That stand there, do this, do that.
Speaker 1:
Then there's people who are, you know, wealthy people, who think they should, you know, reduce the population of the world down to about a billion instead of eight billion. Elon Musk I have to get credit to be says that's really ridiculous, thank you, that is so wrong. He said the planet can care. Look after double what we got now, and I agree with that. I mean, look at Canada for nursing. We're hardly, we're hardly, using any of it. In the second largest land nation on the planet, yeah, there's all kinds of all kinds of room and stuff, yet eight people they've people did the right things and didn't let greed get into the mix. So bad that it kills everything. And I think it takes a revolution or two once in a while. But the look of it.
Speaker 1:
But you know, when I had that dream, I was dreaming you know how. This is kind of how, how's, who's gonna win this, and that you know well, the Democrats use the army to suppress everybody. Or will it be open warfare or what you know, and that's all possible because it's happened before. But then I actually said to myself and I said no, you're, you're wrong, you're thinking wrong. That is why Jesus Christ is going to come back to this earth and it's going to be fairly. We're getting to a point where it wouldn't surprise me. When it starts, you know. And when it starts, that's when you know how long it is to the end of the age, when the tribulation starts, really starts. I'm just getting very close to that now. Then you know you got seven years, you're going to be, it's going to be seven years of the worst possible time this planet has ever seen. And then after that there's a thousand of those who are left. You can figure all the things you can make, all the rockets you want and everything else to escape the earth. That's not going to happen. That's not gonna happen. I was gonna create a new heaven and a new earth.
Speaker 1:
He's told everyone that and it really does amaze me when I listen to these elite type professors that not you know they're, they're intelligence and what they complain I can claim to have is lousy. It's stupid. If they realize like mankind does not have the power to even make laws, it tries to make laws. That's failed miserably. Thousands of years have tried to do that. Only God makes laws, only the Creator of this planet makes laws.
Speaker 1:
And when? If you finally get that through your head, that God has a plan and you are part of that plan. As it turns out, I'm part of that plan. You're part of that plan. I'm still getting away from it. You can't do anything about it. I can't do anything about it. God has a plan. He finally said he will do his pleasure and he made arrangements beforehand, before the plan took place. Jesus would have to pay the price for the sins of His creation that he was going to create so that he would have. He wouldn't be able to save them, Otherwise he couldn't save them, because His law is supreme, it is unchangeable, and when he says you break my law, you die. That is the fact.
Speaker 1:
You know, getting around it, people think that they can't break the law and not suffer the consequences. I mean, I've thought of that, I've done things and maybe still do things that I don't think will matter. It'll matter, and that's where this business of realizing how lousy we are at controlling our own lives, doing things we can't control or to think. Thoughts come in, thoughts come out where they come from, I don't know. There's a lot of times we act on and the best survival tool that this world has for people is humility. That may sound dumb, but it is the more humble you are and the more willing you are to ask God for forgiveness in Jesus' name. He says and then He'll do it, and that clears you. You are cleared, and if you do it again, you'll clear you again if you ask the right way.
Speaker 1:
And that, to me, is a perfect way to try to maintain a life that you can't control, seem to control anyway. Nobody's good enough, that they're just not good enough. We can't, we can't, we're not built for it. It's once I realized that I was not in control of anything in my life, really, except maybe certain things. If I said, well, you know, I'm going to try and do this tomorrow, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 1:
And if I did well, I was good, a lot of times I didn't what I wanted to do, I didn't do. What I didn't want to do I did. And that's a human thing. That drives every human being Is that we're more prone to do things that we shouldn't do than we are to do things that we should do, and it really is a good thing to kind of realize that in your own heart. I mean, I wish now that I had done things different in my life. Why wasn't I more?
Speaker 1:
You know well, I don't love it, I guess you could say, but I didn't really like to show that. You know, I don't want to show that. Oh, that's simple. You know, wouldn't it cost anybody a penny or nothing to do that? Well, I did. I mean, I certainly did. I had to be so that I was always sorry for doing this, sorry for doing that my wife was. Only I had to say I'm sorry about that. Oh, I'm so sorry for that, but you know that's bad to have to do that. You shouldn't be doing that. You shouldn't be sorry for what you do in life. You're not supposed to be.
Speaker 1:
But that's why Jesus is coming back here. That's why this world is going to be changed so much in the future From a world of problems. You know God calls it sin. Sin is actually breaking the law, and his law can't be broken. So if anybody tries to break it, they sin, and then the penalty for that is death.
Speaker 1:
And when this is over with and God runs this planet for a thousand years, in a thousand years, I would imagine that people are not going to be spiritual beings. They're still going to be earthly beings and they will reproduce in a children and whatever. I'm quite sure of that. And that means he's building a family, a bigger family for God, the Father, and they will have no recourse to not do his way. His way will be his way or no way.
Speaker 1:
And you know the thing is, you look at things sometimes and you say, ah, what's in use, what's in use. But you can look at it the other way and say, man, oh man, is there ever a future for people who believe God, believe Jesus Christ and believe in the world to come? There's no greater future than that, and a future that God has said we can't even imagine how good it's going to be. It's never entered into the heart of man what it is. And if he says that that's not my book, yes, it is true. Now, that is such a magnificent thing to be able to look forward to, even if you don't know exactly what it is. But you know the result is going to be God breathed and perfection Forever. That's the other thing. That's hard to get used to too.
Speaker 1:
But anyway, I'm glad I had that dream. I'm glad I'm telling you that dream. I don't know if it makes any sense to you or not, but I'm glad I did, because I'm glad in my dream even I said I was wrong. I mean not to think that that's the way to go. So from now on, hopefully, yeah, I won't have those kind of dreams anymore. They're no good anyway. Anyway, here's to the new year. Whoops, all the best for you, and we'll be able to meet the new year one way or the other and do the best we can, I guess. And I would like to say God bless you and keep you. Thank you very much, thank you.
