Obama says the world has enough oil to crack down on Iran. According to Reuters, President Barack Obama vowed to forge ahead with tough sanctions on Iran, saying there was enough oil in the world market -- including emergency stockpiles -- to allow countries to cut Iranian imports.

Reports say North Korea has Launched Two Short-Range Missiles According to Voice of America News, two South Korean newspapers say North Korea has test fired two short-range missiles off its west coast. The Chosun Ilbo [ILL-BO] says the two missiles launched Thursday were surface-to-ship missiles.

The JoongAng Ilbo newspaper carried a similar report. Sudan's Aerial Bombing Aims At Churches In Nuba Mountains. According to Compass Direct News, after Khartoum denied that it had bombed civilians earlier this month, Sudanese aerial strikes last week were aimed at church buildings and schools in Ka-u-da.

In closing, remember the words of the Lord in Matthew 24:42: "Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come." Matthew 24:44 says, "Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh." If you are not ready, John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." May I encourage you to accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour today so that you can be ready for Jesus Christ's return.
