Financial crash could be weeks away – “Most testing times since WW2”
Since 2022, this paper has regularly printed warnings of a financial crash, encouraging Christians to prepare. A prophecy given in late summer by one of this paper’s Partner Pastors, Rev Chris Wickland, stated that the UK’s economic woes would be in our newspapers within a few weeks and that there was only a short time left to prepare: “The UK’s debt levels have reached historic highs, potentially requiring a bailout from the International Monetary Fund. The Government has borrowed billions, much of it absorbed by interest payments, leaving limited funds for other priorities.”
Now the dangerous state of the nation’s economy is seeping into the mainstream media. “The coming crash” was the Spectator’s headline in August and in mid-September the Daily Telegraph reported a “fresh cost of living crisis”, saying that the Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, “faces a triple whammy going into her November Budget of non-existent growth, a fresh cost of living crisis and a gaping black hole which she must plug. If she is unwilling to seriously cut public spending, the only sticking plaster she has available to her will be tax rises.”
The writing has been on the wall, so to speak, as to the UK economy’s fragility for several years, but an economic crash will be God’s judgement on the nation for her sinful ways. Writing in this paper, Rev Wickland says, “Economic hardship, political upheaval, and societal change may test Britain in ways not seen since the Second World War. Yet these trials carry opportunity. Christians have the chance to participate in a cultural and spiritual reawakening that can reshape the nation.”
