A Christian Education is the only way to learn the truth!

Precious metals are rebounding, but hesitating near the top as many are waiting to hear Bernanke's words after the FOMC meeting. The dollar is strenghtening in anticipating of potential of higher interest rates in the near future. However, increased interest rates here are likely to penalize the economic recovery.

NEW YORK (Rosland Capital) -

Friday seems to be gold's unlucky day. This past Friday, December 11th, gold tumbled as better-than-expected retail sales figures suggested that U.S. economic growth is rebounding. Retail sales for November rose 1.3 percent, much better than the 0.7 percent rise economists and markets were anticipating. Reflexively, the U.S. dollar strengthened and gold promptly tumbled from just over $1,140 to under $1,110 - a decline of more than $30 or about 2.6 percent.. Read it HERE.

Study and hide the Word of God in your heart that you might not sin against Him as our nation is doing now while trying to deny the Sovereignty of the King Jesus. We must all recognize that He is the way, the truth, and the life. There is none other in whom we can place complete trust. The fear and reverse of Him is the way to life, all other ways are the way to eternal death. Do not be deceived, God's word accomplishes the goal for which it was sent to secure. It does each and every time. When God says something, listen and obey. Get your children away from the pagan American socialistic education system and assume your God given responsibility of educating your children. God demands it.

Best, Doug
