“The time until mankind will have destroyed
themselves is shortening. This comes from
scientists and atomic experts that are
responsible for the doomsday clock. This
symbolic clock has now been advanced three

the scientists, it is now 14 minutes before 12:00
[midnight]. The reason for this is ethnic unrest,
nationalism, terrorism, and the proliferation of
weapons.”

Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ, who loves me so.
Face to face shall I behold Him,
Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory
I shall see Him by and by!
