The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.Jeremiah 8 : 20

France will issue survival manuals to prepare citizens for invasion and any other “imminent threat” to the country.
A new 20-page booklet reportedly includes 63 measures to help the French in case of armed conflict, as well as natural disasters, industrial accidents or a nuclear leak.
It will contain advice on how to protect “yourself and those around you”, what to do if a threat is imminent and details of how to get involved in defending your community, including signing up for reserve units or firefighting groups.
The French government denies that the three-part booklet is being produced as a result of Russia’s war in Ukraine, despite President Emmanuel Macron urging France and Europe to prepare to confront the “Russian threat” and the possibility of America disengaging from the continent.
Location of Three-Fold Message Divinely Fixed : The proclamation of the first, second, and third angels’ messages has been located by the Word of Inspiration. Not a peg or pin is to be removed. No human authority has any more right to change the location of these messages than to substitute the New Testament for the Old. The Old Testament is the gospel in figures and symbols. The New Testament is the substance. One is as essential as the other. The Old Testament presents lessons from the lips of Christ, and these lessons have not lost their force in any particular.
The first and second messages were given in 1843 and 1844, and we are now under the proclamation of the third; but all three of the messages are still to be proclaimed. It is just as essential now as ever before that they shall be repeated to those who are seeking for the truth. By pen and voice we are to sound the proclamation, showing their order, and the application of the prophecies that bring us to the third angel’s message. There cannot be a third without the first and second. These messages we are to give to the world in publications, in discourses, showing in the line of prophetic history the things that have been, and the things that will be. 1MR 43 – 1MR 43.2
If approved by François Bayrou, the prime minister, it will be sent to households before the summer, French media reported.
Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.2 Kings 7 : 9, As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.Galatians 6 : 10
It will also suggest putting together a “survival kit” consisting of at least six litres of water, a dozen tins of food, batteries and a torch, as well as basic medical supplies including paracetamol, compresses and saline solution, according to Europe 1 radio, which reported the story.
In case of a nuclear leak, residents should “lock their doors”.
For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
Exodus 12 : 23
‘We must be prepared for the worst-case scenario’
A spokesman from the prime minister’s office said: “The purpose of this document is to ensure the resilience of populations in the face of all types of crisis, whether natural, technological, cyber or security-related,” said a spokesman from the prime minister’s office.

Le Figaro noted that the timing of the kit’s release “could easily suggest that the state is reacting to the unstable international situation”.
However, officials from the General Secretariat for Defence and National Security (SGDSN), who were tasked with drawing it up, were cited as insisting that the aim was “absolutely not” to uniquely prepare the population for “the prospect of war – unlike in Sweden”.
Late last year, the Scandinavian country sent 5 million leaflets to its inhabitants encouraging them to be prepared for a possible armed conflict. The 32-page booklet “If Crisis or War Comes” also contains information about how to prepare for war, natural disasters and cyber or terror attacks.
Unvarnished truth must be spoken in leaflets and pamphlets, and these must be scattered like the leaves of autumn.—Testimonies for the Church 9:230 (1897).
Patriarchs and Prophets, Daniel and the Revelation, and The Great Controversy are needed now as never before. They should be widely circulated because the truths they emphasize will open many blind eyes.—Colporteur Ministry, 123 (1905). LDE 89.4 – LDE 89.5
The updated version of a pamphlet that Sweden has issued five times since the Second World War doesn’t mention Russia, Ukraine or other country by name.

But it warns: “Military threat levels are increasing. We must be prepared for the worst-case scenario – an armed attack on Sweden.” The tips include stocking up non-perishable food and water, keeping cash on hand and growing fruit and vegetables in gardens.
And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it. 2 Kings 7 : 8
Meanwhile, in a separate move, the government in Finland launched a website gathering information on preparedness for different crises.
The Nordic neighbours have dropped decades of military non-alignment to join the US-led defence alliance Nato in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
“The security situation is serious and we all need to strengthen our resilience to face various crises and ultimately war,” said Mikael Frisell, the director of the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) which sent out the brochures.

In comparison, French officials reportedly said the decision to draw up the French booklet had been made in 2022 in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic as part of a “national resilience strategy” to develop the means to deal with them and “to adapt public communication to the challenges of resilience”.
Some of the booklet’s leaked recommendations have already sparked mockery.
Speaking on France Inter radio, comedian Matthieu Noel poked fun at its advice to “stock up” and “shut your doors” in case of a nuclear incident.
“Putin can drop a nuclear bomb on Paris, Ebola can hit the Cantal region, we’ll be ready,” he said. He added: “While you’re at it, how about, in case of tsunami, no snorkelling?”
For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:
Acts 24 : 5
“The end of the world for dummies” was unlikely to raise morale in a country renowned for its propensity for moroseness and high consumption of tranquillisers, he quipped.
The UK Government has not indicated it has any intention of preparing a new Protect and Survive public information campaign on what British citizens should do to protect themselves during a nuclear attack. Produced between 1974 and 1980, and intended for release in case of attack, it included a 32-page booklet that advised the public to create a “fallout room” and “inner refuge” to protect from radiation, as well as painting their windows white. It was later mocked as a “charade” by critics.
In 2004, the Home Office released a “Preparing for Emergencies” campaign, which included a 22-page booklet in the wake of the Madrid train bombings that year and the spread of foot and mouth disease.
