The second anniversary following Steve Jobs death is a hard one. Apple has not been the same since the mastermind genius passed from pancreatic cancer. He left a legacy behind that has been struggling to reestablish themselves as innovators in an entrenched field. Jobs created innovation by thought, process, completion and follow-up. He was always thinking of the next best thing; this list can extend to over 100 items of achievements for Jobs, but here are humbly five of those greatest achievements.
Apple II Circa 1977
It was the innovative evolution of the Apple II that became an utter success for Jobs and Apple. It was the first assembled desktop from Apple, available in its own case. The Apple II created waves of changes just beyond the technology field. Schools were able to start teaching students programming and it launched a powerful tool of computing education. It was such a hit in education, Apple took a cue for its commercial path.
Pixar Purchase Circa 1986
After the ousting of the outspoken Jobs from Apple, he looked to foray into another arena of technology. At the time George Lucas owned a small computer graphics department called Pixar. Jobs saw the potential of graphics within the talent available and bought the name from Lucas. Investing another few million of his own funds into the company, Jobs began to immerse within the demand of animation. After a handshake with Disney, Jobs’ animation company churned out amazing wonders like Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Monster’s Inc. and so much more. Seven years ago, Disney stepped in to purchase Pixar from Jobs, offering him $7.4 billion in stock and adding to his list of greatest achievements. Watch the team at Pixar, including Steve Jobs and actors discussing the innovation of Pixar.
The Evolution of iMac Circa 1998
The minute Jobs walked back into Apple, evolution and innovation became key. Two years after reestablishing his name within the company he created, the iMac was born. Since its inception, the iMac has carried a long-time tradition of glowing achievements. The iMac, circa 1998 was a key hit. With its candy colored covering, it kicked the boxed-sized computers to the curb. The evolutionary all in one package made it a saver of space. Moving forward through the years continues to show the iMac as a powerhouse creation. Currently, it maintains its worth in a PC market with innovative apps, programs and display resolution. Of course, this draws the demand of the infamous iMac commercial.
The First Apple Store Opens Circa 2001
Jobs knew consumers scoured the crowded aisles of computer stores like CompUSA to locate an Apple. He knew consumers wanted more than limited options presented by the retailer. The only way to keep ahead of the trends and smack down PC was to launch a dedicated Apple store. Glendale, California and McLean, Virginia were the first two locations. Consumers flocked to the stores and lines went around the block. In 2001, Jobs launched a total of 25 retail stores in the United States. The employees were heartily trained on all things Apple, and entered the innovation creation called the Genius Bar. The Apple stores still receive a healthy dose of consumer visits. There are now over 400 stores in over 12 countries. Here is a video of Jobs introducing the first Apple store.

Hey, how’s it going?
Did you hear that the powers that run this world want to put a RFID microchip in our body? It will contain not only our bank accounts but our personal information, making us total slaves to the elite. This will cause us to lose even more of our privacy.
Did you know that this RFID microchip matches perfectly with the Mark of the Beast in the Bible, more specifically Revelation 13:16-18?
“He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name…”
Referring to the last days, this could only be speaking of a cashless society, which we have yet to see, but are heading towards. Otherwise, we could still buy or sell without the mark amongst others if physical money was still currency. It’s amazing that the Bible foretold a cashless society!
Did you also hear that the Jewish people are in the process of bringing about the Third Temple prophesied in the Bible by the prophet Daniel, Jesus, and Apostle Paul? They deny Jesus as their Messiah and say their Messiah will be revealed to rule the whole world under a one world religion. They are not even hiding this information, but are actually promoting it. You can view videos about this on YouTube.
When Donald Trump made Jerusalem captial of Israel in late December 2017, the Jewish people said this was a big step for them to build this Third Temple. They even printed a Temple coin with president Trump’s face on the front with king Cyrus'(the man who built the Second Temple in the Bible) face behind him. On the back of the coin is an image of the Third Temple. They are selling these coins to raise money to build the Temple.
People have been saying for many years that the end is near, but we needed not only the Third Temple, but also the technology for there to be a cashless society for the Mark of the Beast to be a reality.

GOD BLESS, JESUS LOVES YOU!
