Now that we have the crack Biden team fiddling with the oil market, we can expect to see higher energy prices as the US heads into the peak summer driving season.
But guess which group is feeling no pain? Our Bible tells us in Revelation 6:5-6, that the ‘oil and wine‘ the only ones who can afford such luxury in the coming tribulation, will be just fine for a time.
