The Global Threat of Putin’s Deterioration

By Hal Lindsey
Jesus said that war and rumors of war would mark the time before His return. Skeptics point out that there have always been both. Jesus clearly meant that end-time wars and messages about them would somehow be more extreme. With the use of atomic weapons, war changed at the end of World War II. Those weapons have not been used in battle since then, but thousands have been made and, through the years, made even deadlier. With the fall of the Soviet Union, most people were lulled into thinking the world was safe from nuclear destruction. But it isn’t true.
This year things have grown much worse. It’s not just that the war in Ukraine involves a nation loaded to the teeth with hydrogen bombs. During the nuclear era, both the United States and Russia fought various wars. The difference this time is the deterioration of the man with his finger on the nuclear button.
A few days ago, Vladimir Putin gave a warning to those nations helping Ukraine. “If someone intends to interfere in what is going on from the outside, they must know that constitutes an unacceptable strategic threat to Russia. They must know that our response to counterstrikes will be lightning fast. Fast. We have all the weapons we need for this. No one else can brag about these weapons, and we won’t brag about them. But we will use them.”
Over the last few years, Putin has made several direct and indirect threats to use nuclear weapons. But now the threats come almost every week. At the same time, intelligence sources are warning about significant changes in the man who runs Russia. Putin has become more erratic. His decisions are increasingly paranoid and self-destructive.
The former Russian spy Boris Karpichkov claims Putin is “obsessed by paranoid ideas…. He sees literally everyone, including those inside the Russian security services and even inside his close inner circle, to be ‘traitors.’” More concerning still, Karpichkov claims that Mr. Putin suffers from the early stages of dementia.
The Russian president’s recent appearances on camera illustrate the fact that something is terribly wrong. He appears bloated and uncomfortable. He has been seen gripping the desk before him with white knuckles for extended periods. After watching a video of Putin, a body language expert from Texas Tech University, Professor Erik Bucy, said, “It’s an astonishingly weakened Putin.”
Yevgeny Selivanov, a surgeon at Moscow’s Central Clinical Hospital, is reported to have met Putin at the leader’s Black Sea resort some thirty-five times. Selivanov wrote his thesis on the “treatment of elderly and senile patients with thyroid cancer.”
Putin has always been extremely self-centered, with a touch of paranoia. But Russia’s disastrous invasion of Ukraine seems to have amplified his paranoia to new levels. He may also suffer from cancer and Parkinson’s disease, along with early dementia. In his deteriorating mental and physical state, he may be feeling that he has little to lose.
And he controls the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons on the planet. He’s fighting a major war in Europe. And he regularly threatens the whole world with his nuclear weapons. There has never been a threat like him in the history of the world. Surely his present war and the war he threatens qualify as new and more extreme kinds of war and rumors of war. According to the Bible, it will get worse before it gets better.
But this is a “lift up your heads” kind of moment. We should see the Putin-threat as another sign of the times. Combined with all the other signs, it seems obvious that we are getting close to the time of Christ’s return. And that, friends, is good news!

Not a fan of Hal Lindsey. Don’t know what Putin’s true condition is (neither does anyone else). Given the circumstances, I don’t blame him for being paranoid.

I can offer what Dr. calls high-octane speculation.

With regard to Putin’s push into THE Ukraine in 2014ish, I think as he saw Trumps popularity, he probably had a few private comms with DJT, in which certain assurances were made & Putin stopped forward movement. When DJT won by a sizeable margin, Putin MIGHT have been counting on those certain “assurances” given, or he thought were given, or DJT was simply prevented from keeping those assurances (which probably included a hands-off approach by Nato). The popularity of DJT undoubtedly pointed to a 2nd term & when the cheat came, Putin had to flip, and he waited as long as he could before doing so.

Either way this goes, Putin & Russia lose. Even if he takes all of The Ukr, he doesn’t have enough troops to secure all that flatland; this was Catherine The Great’s dilemma. Putin MUST move into Nato territory where the geography gives Russia some buffer and if he does that we all know it’s an all out with Nato, which he cannot win & nuclear will be used. We all know it & keep trying to find ways to tap dance around it. Nuclear, whether tactical or otherwise is coming. If Putin stops here, or even a bit forward, Ukr will be overrun, all the way into Russia and the once great nation will be “absorbed”, either by The West, or into Eurasia, etc.

Bottom Line: Putin should have finished the job in 2014 when he had the troop numbers to do it with. 8 years makes a huge difference in the demographics & population that his army can draw from; not to mention that U.S. armed forces were being dismantling, etc.

The ONLY possible hope we have, remembering that God works through people, is if true Conservatives get a sizeable position in mid-terms. Even if they don’t; phone calls, emails, trips to their local offices. We need to make them terrified of wiping their bums the wrong way! It’s NOW, else, we’re done…

I feel very sorry for The Russian People. I feel very sorry for everyone because nobody is going to escape this unscathed. We’re all responsible for what’s happened & what’s coming, because we sat back, did nothing & let it happen; or, if we did something, it was miniscule because we’re lazy.

As The Prince of Verona said, “ALL are punish-ed!”.
