The price of Diesel matters more than you think

Why is diesel so much more expensive than petrol when both come out of a barrel of crude oil.

There seems to be no logical reason & the war with Iran is not a valid excuse,

but just playing a political blame game.

So what is going on?

Is there more behind this?

Is this the creation of a crises like the Covid 'Plandemic"?

Is it push the so-called renewable energy & EV's?

Is to to come to the 2030 goal of the unelected elites & corrupt politicians?

"You own nothing & be happy"

Diesel is again hitting record prices.

Most people see that number and think about truck drivers.

I see the grocery store.

Think about how much of your life moves on diesel.

The tractor preparing the field.

The equipment harvesting the crop.

The truck carrying it to processing.

Another truck carrying it to a distribution centre.

Another truck delivering it to your grocery store.

That litre of diesel gets buried somewhere in the price of almost everything you buy.

Then I think about Revelation 6.

"When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand."

Revelation 6:5

Then comes the frightening part.

"And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; ”

Revelation 6:6

That denarius, was roughly a day’s wage in the Roman world.

John is describing a time when a man can work all day just to afford enough basic food to survive.

I’m not telling you expensive diesel today is the third seal of Revelation.

It isn’t.

What we’re watching does show us how quickly the machinery behind modern civilization can become expensive.

Transportation gets more expensive, farming gets more expensive, shipping gets more expensive, and eventually that pressure reaches your dinner table.

We read Revelation and sometimes picture economic conditions so extreme that they’re almost impossible to imagine.

Look at the system we already live in.

Your food can travel hundreds or thousands of miles before it ever reaches your plate.

Fuel touches nearly every step along the way.

Today people are shocked by what it costs to fill a diesel tank.

Revelation describes a day when people will be shocked by what it costs to eat.

John wrote about it almost 2,000 years ago.

Both Diesel and Gasoline are a by-product of refining crude oil. Kerosene, oil, jet fuel, propane, butane ect. Are all by-products of refining crude oil.

Oil resides deep within the earth in pockets between layers of overburden above, and hard bedrock below. Oil can be found globally. It's under deserts and beneath vast oceans. Oil is essentially carbon. Oil is the left over carbon from natural species from long before, most likely as a result from the flood of Noah. The engine in your vehicle is exploding leftover organic bits at a near perfect air to fuel ratio, as you drive to the grocery store.

So after all looking at this & knowing that there is plenty of oil being drilled & plenty reserves, why is this happening?
