The Newer Corona-Viruses in the Third Time

How did the 1918 Spanish Flu disappear in 1920 after killing 50 million people in the world, although Wikipedia reads: "In spring 1920 a very minor fourth wave occurred in isolated areas including New York City, the United Kingdom, Austria, Scandinavia, and some South American islands. Mortality rates were very low (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu#Fourth_wave_1920)?"

It is reported from China that current corona-viruses became frequently mutated.  The change in base sequences is 4,300 among 10,000 base sequences in its genome or the genetic material of an organism (specifically RNA in a virus).   It means that a corona-virus becomes mutated very often.  Some corona-viruses get mutated to less harmful viruses while others to more harmful viruses.

In the case of the 1918 Spanish flu, caused by H1N1 influenza A viruses that are the same type of viruses in the 2020 corona-pandemic, the mutation of relevant viruses turned to the less harmless direction. Otherwise, the world should have had no chance or room to experience the 1929 Great Depression and even WWII due to possible utter exhaustion of nations and their peoples, if the 1918 Spanish Flu had further continued.

So the world had good fortune in 1920, avoiding the end of the world due to the Spanish Flu in exchange of, so to speak, the 1929 Great Depression and WWII, less harmful tragedies to the mankind than the end of the world.

In this 2020 corona-virus pandemic, it is expected that the corona-viruses would become mutated to the less harmful direction, too.  And the world will be saved again.

But, in the next time when newer corona-viruses appear, it is predicted that the viruses will get mutated to the more harmful direction, since it will be the third time of pandemic occurrence since the 20th century. 

Generally speaking, if phenomena of the same kind continue continually in three times, it would have decisive effect in the third time.  For example, in the US politics, African Americans had held up a big hope for liberation in the JFK Administration that was ended in the JFK assassination in 1963.  They also placed great expectation on young Democratic leader Bill Clinton when he occupied the White House for eight years in late 1990s, but they had to get disappointed as Clinton faced impeachment by the Senate, although he could narrowly leave the White House as an innocent President in 2001.  But finally, African Americans had their own-kind of president, Barack Obama in 2009, which was the third time of their chances (although Obama's ancestors did not include past slaves in America).

Therefore, in the next time when newer corona-viruses appear, it is predicted that the viruses will get mutated to the more harmful direction, giving decisive and catastrophic influence on the world of the 21st century.  But, in the tragedy, we may see Christ Jesus coming back to this world riding on clouds.

However, it would be helpful to see how the 2020 corona-pandemic has spread in the world after its outbreak in China in the late 2019.

In the third time, what map will show trails of spreading of deadly viruses in the world?  Yet, I hope we can evade WWIII due to the third-time pandemic.  And, we have to look forward to the Second Coming of Christ Jesus hopefully in this century.

Luke 6 King James Version (KJV)
8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
9 Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
10 And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

Unlikely that Trump will be Re-Elected

The status of race and ethnicity in the United States is as follows, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_ethnicity_in_the_United_States.

2019 U.S. Census Bureau Estimates[16]
Self-identified race			Percent of population
White			76.5%
Hispanic and Latino Americans (of any race)			18.3%
Black or African American			13.4%
Asian			5.9%
Native Americans and Alaska Natives			1.3%
Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders			0.2%
Two or more races			2.7%

Note that Middle Eastern Americans are counted as White on the census, and the White, non-Hispanic or Latino population make up 61.3% of the nation's total, with the total White population (including White Hispanics and Latinos) being 77%.

So, the fate of President Trump seems to lie in the hands of White, non-Hispanic or Latino population.

On the other hand, it is said that white Americans account for approximately 2/3 of those below the poverty line.  And, the official poverty rate is 12.3 percent, based on the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2017 estimates. That year, an estimated 39.7 million Americans lived in poverty according to the official measure. According to supplemental poverty measure, the poverty rate was 13.9 percent (https://poverty.ucdavis.edu/faq/what-current-poverty-rate-united-states#:~:text=Current%20estimates%20on%20poverty%20in,poverty%20rate%20was%2013.9%20percent.).

So, 8% white Americans in poverty will not vote for Trump, which means that non-poor (pure) white Americans accounting for 53% of all Americans must decide the November Presidential Election in the U.S., since the racial and rich-poor gap issues will be the key to the Election.

In this context, it is unlikely that Trump will be re-elected.

Indeed, the Bible read: "Actually all of us were like them and lived according to our natural desires, doing whatever suited the wishes of our own bodies and minds.  In our natural condition we, like everyone, were destined to suffer God's anger."

Thus, the God has sent the Angel of Death who is using corona-viruses generated in Wuhan, China, to the world in 2020 to stop Trump.

Therefore, we had better think what the world will become of after Trump leaves the White House in 2021 while China is still abusing its military and economic power, the world economy continues a downward trend, some new viruses are threatening the world, and the climate change still remains increasing risks to civilization.

The world will not suddenly become rosy even though Trump will surely leave the White House in 2021.  Since Trump is just a part of reasons for God's anger, we will have to continue to pray to the God so as not to destroy the world, at least, sooner than we reasonably and faithfully anticipate.

John 6 King James Version (KJV)
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

"thy Father which seeth in secret" - Spiritually Healing Power

Spiritually Healing Power

Christ Jesus cured various sick people according to the Gospels:

The largest group of miracles mentioned in the New Testament involves cures. The Gospels give varying amounts of detail for each episode, sometimes Jesus cures simply by saying a few words, at other times, he employs material such as spit and mud. Generally they are referred to in the Synoptic Gospels but not in the Gospel of John. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracles_of_Jesus#Cures)

He was not a medical doctor with modern medication and equipment, although He never failed in curing the sick.

Or were those descriptions about healing by Christ Jesus fictitious stories?  If so, Christianity has been based on deceit from the beginning.  But if those episodes were true, how could He cure all those sick people without modern medication and equipment?  Only by executing miracles?

A man has potential to cure his own illness or protect his own body from disease germs and viruses.  As this potential power could not be exerted for some reason, he became ill.  However, because it was difficult or sometimes impossible to address the situation by himself, he could not cure himself.  But as Christ Jesus could work in a supernatural way, He triggered the work of the potential of power of the man.  Accordingly, over the reason that hindered the work of the potential power, the power started to work and cured his illness. 

But, what is the supernatural way Christ Jesus used?  There was direct relationship between Christ Jesus and a sick person.  It means that the sick person was aware of the power of Christ Jesus.  The person detected and sensed healing power of Christ Jesus.  His or her mind would try to bring his or her conscious in line with the healing power of Christ Jesus.  Then, through this channel, the healing power should flow into the conscious of the sick person and work in the body.

Between two material entities, some physical power works, such as gravitation and electromagnetic force.  Likewise, between human minds, some power can flow and work.  It is commonly observed that a man feels power of personal quality of another man when the two men face each other.  In this way, power of Christ Jesus should be felt by sick people, transmitted and received.

It may be spiritual power or yet undiscovered work of minds.  But, since there were no modern medication and equipment, Christ Jesus must have used this power that could work between Him and the sick, and the sick must have received this power that should then work in its body to cure illness.

However, Christ Jesus could even revive a dead man according to the Gospels.  His power was truly beyond our material wold.  Christ Jesus must have been able to work on a spiritual entity and allow it to return to its body left in this material world in good conditions.

The core of the curing power of Christ Jesus must have worked beyond this material world and in the spiritual world, too.

In this context, the modern medical science cannot be completed until medical doctors have mastered spiritually healing power.

Matthew 6 King James Version (KJV)
2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 

3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: 

4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

"on the second sabbath after the first" - Not only from This Pandemic and Other Pandemics Prior to the End of the World

Not only from This Pandemic and Other Pandemics Prior to the End of the World

Corona-virus related deaths among G7 members as of June 1, 2020:

1. JAPAN:       892 

2. Canada:   7,295 

3. Germany: 8,605 

4. France:   28,802 

5. Italy:      33,415 

6. UK:        38,489 

7. USA:    106,195 

Deaths in Japan is indeed less than 1,000.  It is remarkable that Japan could suppress the deaths caused by the corona-viruses to such a low level, while Japan is closer to China than any other G7 members.

However, from a viewpoint of Japan, the corona pandemic cannot be ignored.  It is the third great crisis for Japan since 1990s.

In 1995, the Great Hanshin Earthquake occurred around Kobe City, west of Osaka and Kyoto, killing more than 6,000 people.  It was the greatest natural disaster in Japan after WWII.  In addition, two months after the Earthquake, the cult called the Oumu Shinrikyo launched a sarin-gas attack in the Tokyo subway networks, injuring about 6,000 commuters.  It was when the bubble economy of Japan was burst, giving a great shock to Japan enjoying the status of the second largest economy in the world next to the U.S.

In 2011, the Great Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami occurred on the Pacific costs in the Tohoku region, north of Tokyo, leading to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, killing about 16,000 people.  It was when Japan was recovering from the 2008 Financial Crisis, thus inflicting serious damage to the Japanese economy and its nuclear industry.   　　 

In 2020, the corona pandemic generated in China has also hit Japan, while Japan accepted almost ten million tourists from China in 2019, in addition to about a half million Chinese residents in Japan.  There must be hundreds or thousands of Chinese traveling between Japan and Wuhan, China, where corona-viruses were generated, between January and March, 2020, when Japan got into the official state of alert against the pandemic by imposing various regulations on major cities and regions.   

The 1995 disaster was just a warning as the world was proceeding to the end of the 20th century as it occurred in the local region in Japan, although Koba was one of major cities in Western Japan with Osaka and Kyoto constituting the second-largest metropolitan area in Japan next to the Tokyo Area.

However, the 2011 disaster really shook Tokyo and put people around Tokyo into fear of a nuclear disaster.  Although the 1995 disaster was concentrated mostly around the city of Kobe, this 2011 disaster gave a serious influence on the region in a range over several-hundred kilo-meters north of Tokyo, the capital of Japan.  Therefore, the whole Japan was put into a fear.  As time went by, Japan could somewhat suppress the nuclear disaster in Fukushima and regain self-confidence to the degree to try to host the 2020 Summer Olympic Games.   

And, just in 2020, this corona-pandemic has occurred, forcing Japan to postpone Summer Olympic Games.   This time, it is not a matter of the whole Japan but it has covered the whole world.  The situation is further exacerbated.  Or Japan has been involved in the ill omen of the world.  If the world is accelerated to the end of the world as the Bible or Isaac Newton predicted, so Japan must be.

In relation to China, it is notable that the Tiananmen Square incident occurred in 1989, six years before 1995; and the Beijin Summer Olympics was held in 2008, three years before 2011.  And this corona-pandemic has occurred one year after the eruption of trade disputes between the U.S. and China.

So, from a Japanese view point, the relationship between Japan, the U.S. and other Western countries and China has come to the critical and decisive status.  And the end of the world, involving China as one of major factors, must be further accelerated, while Isaac Newton predicted that it would start after 2060.

Anyway, Japan will try as hard as possible to reduce damage not only from this pandemic and other pandemics expected to come prior to or along with the end of the world.  I hope that this resolution is reflected in the top table showing the numbers of deaths caused by corona-viruses in G7 members.

Luke 6 King James Version (KJV)
6 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.
2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungred, and they which were with him;
4 How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
5 And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
