The ship was being used to export North Korea's coal, one of North Korea's most critical exports, that the USA and UN imposed harsh sanctions on in hopes to stop their nuclear program. The New York Times reported:
>This is the first time the United States seized a North Korean cargo vessel for international sanctions violations, the Justice Department said.
<br />“This sanctions-busting ship is now out of service,” John C. Demers, the head of the Justice Department’s national security division, said in a statement.
<br />The civil action came as North Korea’s weapons tests over the past several days have threatened the disarmament discussions that President Trump opened. Mr. Trump and the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, abruptly ended their last meeting this year when Mr. Trump refused to ease sanctions unless the North dismantled all of its nuclear weapons.

North Korea has also launched 2 test missiles in under a week, not long after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

On May 9th, people watched a news program of a missile test at a railway station in Seoul. Perhaps a warning sign the North Korea isn't happy with how talks with the United States has been progressing. The missiles landed in the East Sea between North Korea and Japan, though Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said the missiles had had “no immediate impact on Japan’s security.” Both missiles were short-range ballistic missiles. So it seems that North Korea is jumping back into the field while tensions with Iran increase. Russia and China are also warning the United States about their moves on Iran. So what will be North Korea's next move? Are you prepared??

Nearly all religions believe we are presently in the "end times", that period of history when the world will undergo divine judgment, followed by the establishment of the everlasting Kingdom of God that is reserved for the chosen.

Most believe the Messiah will come just prior to this judgment, offering the people one last chance at salvation. Lord RayEl is that prophesied Messiah. Though "faith" is important, we will still provide evidence of his divinity.
God bless.
