Genuine Repentance -- Notable Quotable

2010-07-28T06:00:00.002-04:00

On genuine repentance and the importance of a heart that exhibits a godly sorrow rather than one that merely exhibits a worldly sorrow...

Many make a mistake about salvation; they mistake the meaning of the term, and to them salvation means being delivered from going down to the pit of hell. Now, the right meaning of salvation is purification from evil…

When a man is tied up to be flogged for a deed of brutal violence, and his back is bared for the lash, depend upon it—he repents of what he did; that is to say, he repents that he has to suffer for it, but that is all, and a sorry all too.

He has no sorrow for the agony he has inflicted on the innocent victim, no regret for maiming him for life. What is the value of such repentance?

Echoes Of 9/11? Signaling An Attack? War?

2010-07-27T20:16:00.001-04:00

NOTE: I will be shining a light on one man in in particular later on in this report NOT because he's Jewish, but because of his past connections to 9/11, and because he came up in the news recently in addition to some similar news items that resonate with some of the things we saw reported just prior to 9/11. Now, before anyone comes after me attempting to charge me with being "anti-Israel" or an "anti-Semite" I suggest you take a moment, take a deep breath, and read all the evidence shared here first. Such a charge would be patently false and unsubstantiated after even a brief look at this forums Archives over the past 2 years. As a Christian, particularly one who studies eschatology, I am a fervent supporter of Israel. I recognize the CENTRAL ROLE they play in God's description of end times events. However, much like how there are "bad" factions of the whole in any group (like within our own government and military), I firmly believe there exists a "faction" within the political halls of power in Israel who have extended their reach worldwide. The man you will read about here MAY BE/SEEMS TO BE one of them. Even so, "one bad apple does not poison the entire apple cart", right? In the final analysis, this is just another study consistent with the commands given to us in the Bible to stand for truth and justice and to expose the evil deeds of darkness wherever we believe we find them. Please join me in the pursuit of the truth today.

God's Word as recorded for us in the Holy Bible is crystal clear...

Matthew 10:16 (KJV) Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

Ephesians 5:11 (KJV) And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

If those commands and these types of studies make you uncomfortable, then you might want to stop reading right now and come back tomorrow for new content.

Are we about to see the beginning of the end? By that, I mean the beginning of the prophesied Psalm 83 War/Gog-Magog Attack and resulting Tribulation (amongst other things worldwide)?

I think the answer is undeniably YES at this point. I mean, whether it's a straight-forward, objective analysis of the news like this entry will be, or subjective studies of the symbolism we're seeing (like the one performed in the previous post, which connects to this one given the Gog-Magog verses that came up there!), all signs are pointing to these ancient prophecies being fulfilled at any moment.

We've been following the trail of bread crumbs for months now...

April: Are We About To See The Fulfillment Of The Gog Magog War? (Part 1)

April: Are We About To See The Fulfillment Of The Gog Magog War? (Part 2)

May: 'Pakistani Taliban' Back In The News (Why It's Important)

June: 'False Flag' Narrative Almost Complete

June: Is A False Flag Event Imminent?

Of course, none of it was due to any great insight or wisdom on my part, but I believe due entirely to the leading and promptings of the Holy Spirit who wanted us to be mindful of such things.

Well, I'm sure many of you saw the image and main headline on The Drudge Report today...

More War? Ahmadinejad Says Expects U.S. To Attack MidEast Soon

TEHRAN (Reuters) – Iran expects the United States to launch a military strike on "at least two countries" in the Middle East in the next three months, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told state-run Press TV.

In an interview recorded on Monday, Ahmadinejad did not specify whether he thought Iran itself would be attacked nor did he say what intelligence led him to expect such a move.

The United States and Israel have refused to rule out military action against Iran's nuclear program which they fear could lead to it making a bomb, something Iran denies.

"They have decided to attack at least two countries in the region in the next three months," Ahmadinejad said in excerpts broadcast on the rolling news channel on Tuesday.

Israel, which refuses to confirm or deny the existence of its own nuclear arsenal, has a history of pre-emptive strikes against suspected nuclear targets. In 1981 it destroyed Iraq's only nuclear reactor and in 2007 bombed a suspect site in Syria.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called the prospect of a nuclear armed Iran "the ultimate terrorist threat." His deputy, Moshe Yaalon, has said Israel had improved military capability which could be used against foes in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria or Iran.

Ahmadinejad said Iran had "very precise information that the Americans have hatched a plot, according to which they to wage a psychological war against Iran."

He also criticized the U.S.-led drive for international sanctions to pressure Tehran over the nuclear issue.

Yet, I noticed something else today that instantly caught my eye and that definitely deserves a mention here especially following that news out of the Middle East. Did you see this reported?

Defense Department Can't Account For $8.7 Billion

BAGHDAD – The U.S. Defense Department is unable to properly account for over 95 percent of $9.1 billion in Iraqi oil money tapped by the U.S. for rebuilding the war ravaged nation, according to an audit released Tuesday.

The report by the U.S. Special Investigator for Iraq Reconstruction offers a compelling look at continued laxness in how such funds were being spent in a country where people complain basic services like electricity and clean water are sharply lacking seven years after the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.

The audit found that shoddy record keeping by the Defense Department left the Pentagon unable to fully account for $8.7 billion it withdrew between 2004 and 2007 from a special fund set up by the U.N. Security Council. Of that amount, Pentagon "could not provide documentation to substantiate how it spent $2.6 billion."

The funds are separate from the $53 billion allocated by Congress for rebuilding Iraq.

Why is that POTENTIALLY important news?

Do you know who Dov Zakheim is? Surprisingly (then again, maybe not), he was also in the news recently. On July 16th, 2010, it was reported that Dov Zakheim retired from Booz Allen Hamilton. To be more specific, he will be retiring in a few days.

***IMPORTANT NOTE***
News about Zakheim's retirement hasn't been confirmed yet. In fact, such a story comes from someone claiming to have received info about such from a reader in an email that contained Mr. Zakheim's retirement announcement above the original invitation from his Secretary/EA (Executive Assistant). Apparently, the retirement is effective later this week on July 31st, 2010.

I decided to run with this story despite it being unconfirmed only because of what history tells us; history just prior to 9/11. In other words, news about an "impending retirement" (let alone the mere fact that this guy was in the news recently) MIGHT help to clarify our understanding of the situation, or the real story (if there is one beyond what we already know from the mainstream news today).

A guy's retiring. So what, right? Not so fast. Some have compiled evidence to suggest that Zakheim was the "Money Master" and "Mastermind" of the September 11, 2001 "False Flag" attacks!

For those of you who don't know who Dov Zakheim is, let me quickly refresh your memory. The ordained Rabbi served as Comptroller of the Pentagon from May 4th, 2001, to March 10th, 2004, when he resigned to go to Booz Allen Hamilton, a leading consulting firm.

Some interesting FACTS about the guy that need to be included here for what will become obvious reasons include (read these and recall what we looked at last week about the POTENTIAL CONNECTION between the current Gulf Crisis and 9/11)...

1. In 2001, Dov was CEO of SPS International, part of System Planning Corporation, a defense contractor majoring in electronic warfare technologies, including remote-controlled aircraft systems, and the notorious Flight Termination System (FTS) that could hijack even a hijacked plan and land or crash it wherever (World Trade Center Towers!?!).

2. Perhaps not coincidentally in May 2001, when Dov served at the Pentagon, it was an SPS (his firm's) subsidiary, Tridata Corporation, that oversaw the investigation of the first "terrorist" attack on the World Trade Center in 1993. This would have given them intimate knowledge of the security systems and structural blueprints of the World Trade Center. From the 1990s through 2001, WTC Security was handled by Securacom, a Kuwait-American firm, on whose board Marvin Bush, the President's brother, sat. After 9/11, Securacom was let go, changed its name to Stratosec, and was delisted from the Stock Exchange in 2002.

3. Mr. Zakheim is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and in 2000 a co-author of the Project For The New American Century's position paper, "Rebuilding America's Defenses", advocating the necessity for a Pearl-Harbor-like incident (9/11!?!) to mobilize the country into war with its enemies, mostly Middle Eastern Muslim nations.

4. Mr. Zakheim's grandfather was born in 1870, Julius Zakheim (Zhabinka), in the Ukraine, a Russian Rabbi who married a relative of Karl Marx. He was a Menshevik/Bolshevik and played a leading role in the 1905 turmoil that paved the way for the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution.

As eyebrow raising as all of that is, it pales in comparison to this bit of news. As they say, "follow the trail of money..."

His days before, during, and after his Pentagon stint have been fully documented by some, and during those times a total of $3.2 trillion went missing from the Pentagon coffers! Hmmm...Just like today's story about $8.7 billion being unaccounted for by the Defense Department? But wait, you'll see why today's news COULD BE SOMETHING TO WATCH closely in the days and weeks ahead because I haven't shared the most suspicious "missing money" fact yet.

In a July 2006 article for Online Journal -- Following Dov Zakheim And Pentagon Trillions To 9-11 And Israel -- (which you should all read in full) some stunning evidence was presented.

The author of that column (who also reported on Zakheim's retirement in the story linked above) wrote the following that should be cause for concern in light of what history tells us...

"...the second loss of $2.3 trillion was announced on September 10, 2001, by Donald Rumsfeld and the story was buried the next day under the rubble of 9/11."

Isn't it at least PLAUSIBLE to be suspicious about today's news and it's juxtaposition with other "drumbeats-of-war" type news reported at the same time? You bet it is.

Now, before anyone comes after me attempting to charge me with being "anti-Israel" or an "anti-Semite" I suggest you take a moment, take a deep breath, and read all the evidence shared here first. As a Christian, particularly one who studies eschatology, I am a fervent supporter of Israel. However, much like how there are "bad" factions of the whole in any group, I firmly believe there exists a "faction" within the political halls of power in Israel who have extended their reach worldwide. Better yet, just go back to the beginning of this piece and read the introductory note I included there.

Complicating matters (and adding further intrigue here) is the news reported on July 22nd, 2010 from Defense News that also involves A TON OF MONEY, the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, and even Dov Zakheim! Check this out...

Business Board: Close U.S. JFCOM, Freeze Hiring

An influential Pentagon advisory board is poised to recommend Defense Secretary Robert Gates close contractor-heavy U.S. Joint Forces Command (JFCOM) and rid his office and the Joint Staff of redundant functions, moves that could save billions of dollars.

As part of work ordered by Gates under his war on overhead and inefficiencies, a Defense Business Board study group is urging him to also shutter its Networks and Information Integration directorate. NII, as it's known in the defense community, resides within the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD).

The Defense Business Board task force also is recommending Gates initiate a hiring freeze for OSD, all Joint Staff directorates and all combatant commands.

Those recommendations are part of a set of preliminary recommendations the board unanimously approved July 22. The board expects to submit these initial findings to Gates soon in an informational memo, followed in October by a broader set of longer-term cost-cutting proposals.

The board also will advise Gates to seek to "eliminate organizational duplication and overlap" across the department. A fourth proposal will advise an immediately effective directive to "seriously curtail all indirect spending" on things like "duty station moves, travel [and] conferences," states the preliminary DBB report. This recommendation also calls for Gates to modify the so-called "use it or lose it policy" on such funds, "which only promotes wastes," the report states.

The JFCOM and NII closures are part of a broader recommendation that will go to the secretary soon to shrink the military's combatant commands, which the board has concluded are swollen with thousands of expensive contractors - many in redundant positions.

Gates asked the board to propose ways the department can slash $101 billion over five years from overhead and unneeded costs. Gates wants to transfer those savings to hardware programs he feels are needed to combat future threats.

With war funding included, U.S. military spending for fiscal 2010 will approach $661 billion. The DBB study group estimates "at least $200 billion - $ 1 trillion across the [future years defense plan] - is overhead." If the Defense Department's overhead was its own nation, it would rank 49th globally in total gross domestic product - just behind Singapore and Portugal, and just ahead of Israel and the United Arab Emirates.

Dov Zakheim, a former Pentagon comptroller and now a Booz Allen Hamilton executive, applauded the secretary for being "brave enough" to seek overhead and other cost reductions. Gates realizes that he must make changes, even with two hot wars raging, "because if we don't, we'll shoot ourselves in the foot," Zakheim said.

Now, call me a "conspiracy theorist", call me a "fear mongerer", call me whatever you like! I don't write about these things out of fear (or because I'm trying to create fear and panic amongst the Body of Christ. Quite the contrary!

I write about these Satanic schemes of the Luciferians who are loyal to our common enemy because we're called to expose them, but also to try and help others learn how to think critically again (and use their God-given brains, common sense, and logic) by examining various news items rather than relying on one source for all their news and information.

Besides, we have the one source for all of our truth -- our Heavenly Father and what His Word says about these days -- that helps give us the proper perspective when analyzing things like this.

In addition, it's not about "being right" here either. Gosh, it's not even about me or Look Up Fellowship! It's about us, and about the T-R-U-T-H, and about following the commands given to us in Scripture, and about what God's Word tells us about the last days, and about how we need Jesus Christ to be our Lord and Savior before it's too late. That's what this is about. It's not a popularity contest, but about preaching the truth of the Gospel.

By the way, ever hear of "Occam's Razor" and its application to knowing the truth? It's the principle that "entities must not be multiplied beyond necessity". The popular interpretation of this principle is that the simplest explanation is usually the correct one.

Ladies and Gentleman, whether or not you agree in whole or in part with these findings, here is an eye-opening article originally from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette by Milan Simonich...

Army Unit Piecing Together Accounts Of Pentagon Attack

"One Army office in the Pentagon lost 34 of its 65 employees in the attack. Most of those killed in the office, called Resource Services Washington, were civilian accountants, bookkeepers and budget analysts. They were at their desks when American Airlines Flight 77 struck."

First, recall the basic premise of today's commentary.

Now, using common sense (and Occam's Razor), isn't it more than ironic that Accountants, Bookkeepers, and Budgets Analysts -- the very people who could pick up the financial frauds IF we're on to something here -- were targeted and struck? I'm just asking.

Are these puzzle pieces with prophetic implications, or just vain speculations? Is this an echo of 9/11? Are The-Powers-That-Be (those nefarious "kings of the earth") conspiring and signaling an attack? War?

If nothing else, just put this on your "spiritual radar" as one more thing to keep your spiritual eyes on given where we believe we are on God's prophetic timeline.

What do we know?

Matthew 24:6 (KJV) And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

Yep, I'd say these stories are a fulfillment of that prophecy, wouldn't you?

Keep looking up! MARANATHA!!!

Lufthansa Plane Crash, Cranes, Co-Redemptrix?

2010-07-27T19:12:00.002-04:00

I shouldn't be shocked when this happens, but this is just absurd.

I'm sure you caught the news about the Lufthansa Cargo Plane crash today...

Lufthansa MD-11 Freighter Crashes In Riyadh, Injuring Two

A Lufthansa MD-11 cargo plane caught fire and split in half while landing Tuesday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, injuring the German pilot and co-pilot, according to an Associated Press report.

How in the world does any plane catch fire and split in two while landing!?! What could cause the plane to catch fire and burn that quickly causing that kind of damage? Could a "normal" fire that breaks out in the cargo bay really cause a plane to split in half? How could a precise kind of damage occur, and is there any precedent for this sort of thing?

Take a look at this photo of the plane...

Folks, "caught fire and split in half while landing" is their wording -- not mine. Has such an incident ever happened before? I could be wrong, but I don't seem to recall any.

Yes, I know they're in Saudi Arabia and this could be a bomb from a terrorist attack, but look at the above image again. Does that look like damage from a traditional explosive device to you? Me neither. Plus, the photographic evidence seems "odd" and inconsistent with a typical bomb.

Then again, I could be completely mistaken here. I mean, one reader commented on one news article I saw online that it could be "a cargo hold fire perhaps", but that they couldn't know for sure without seeing the other side of the aircraft. It's possible. I mean, I also read that the plane was carrying about 90 tons of "unspecified" cargo. It took civil defense workers about 3 hours to contain the fire too.

Hey, how long did it take them to put out the Deepwater Horizon Oil Rig fire? I'm just asking. But don't mind me because we already have the "official story", which is that the Pilot reported a fire in the cargo bay as he approached the airport and runway. That happens a lot.

Look, I don't care how "crazy" it makes me sound at this point (I've been called worse in my life! HA), but I'm going to admit that when I saw this story, read the description about what happened, saw the images, and then heard the mainstream media's response to the bizarre circumstances of this plan crash today (particularly the on-air report by Fox News) I immediately thought of some of our recent speculations here.

What have we touched upon quite extensively lately as POSSIBLE SCENARIOS given what we already know to be fact, and given we've been told "they" would attempt to do over the years?

1. Space-Based Weapons are responsible for recent tragedies
[READ MORE]

2. So-called "bad Aliens/UFOs" are responsible for recent tragedies
[READ MORE] [READ EVEN MORE]

Yeah, I know how it sounds, but we need to start thinking about the likelihood that these are the kinds of "realities" that Satan and his minions will one day try to force upon us as "truth" to try and deceive millions worldwide.

Christians can't bury their head in the sand on these issues any longer. Don't laugh either! Did you know that there's a famous "UFO" sighting that's widely known involving a Lufthansa Pilot? Take a look and a listen...

Lufthansa Pilot UFO Sighting

In addition, would you believe there's even a link between Kazakhstan (we all know from previous studies how that place is an Occult epicenter and overt region for "Alien/UFO" activity based on the government's own pronouncements) and Lufthansa's Cargo Planes?

In late 2007, the Lufthansa cargo hub dispute was started by Russia. Lufthansa was forced to relocate its cargo hub from Kazakhstan to Russia.

Oh yeah, for all you "Symbolism Junkies" out there you'll love this! A full 17 hours ago, or a few hours BEFORE this incident and near-tragedy, The Wall Street Journal had this headline and story about Lufthansa...

Test Flight: Lufthansa Searches For Savor In The Sky

As a Christian who studies the "signs of the times" that are all around us, what's the very first thing your mind thought of when you read that headline? Yep, me too! Surreal, huh?

On second thought, if we were to "read between the lines" isn't it also funny how that same headline could serve as a note on NASA's Project Blue Beam and what many have claimed were it's intended and future use to create a "Fake Rapture" and a "False Savior" in the skies overhead worldwide?

Another one I saw that made me think of the coming Antichrist at the head of a New World Order (reading it "between-the-lines") was this one about Lufthansa's chief rival...

Air Berlin Touches Down In Oneworld

When I thought things couldn't get any weirder my head kept spinning some more when I read this news out of Denver, CO (of all places!) reported YESTERDAY even though it actually happened earlier this month...

Highlands Ranch Baby Born On Flight

A Highlands Ranch woman gave birth on a flight from Germany to Denver earlier this month.

Expectant mother Heather Randle went into labor on the Lufthansa flight, which was then diverted to Canada, and gave birth to daughter Trudance on the plane. The baby was seven weeks early.

Randle said her water broke and she began having contractions. Three different doctors responded to the emergency. When her contractions grew closer together, the doctors told her she would definitely have the child on the plane.

Because of the rather unique circumstance, the baby will have dual citizenship to the United States and Canada and may also get a German passport.

Are you kidding me!?!

It's all there in a "meaningless" and "random" real-world account of a "rare" incident: A "high land" (Heaven); a reminder of Jesus' own description of the end times being likened to labor pains and child birth (story of the birth itself; beginning of the Tribulation); the numbers 3 (Holy Trinity) and 7 (signifies "Completion"); dual citizenship (we Christians are in this world, but not of this world); from Germany to Denver (noting the unusual set of circumstances and symbolism we've seen since 2008 connecting Hitler's Nazi regime with the current US President and administration and the coming Antichrist/New World Order).

Oh yeah, the Lufthansa logo is an encircled Crane in flight. There are only 2 places in the entire King James Version of the Holy Bible where the word "crane" appears. Both are found in prophetic Books...

Isaiah 38:14 (KJV) Like a crane [or] a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail [with looking] upward: O LORD, I am oppressed; undertake for me.

Jeremiah 8:7 (KJV) Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.

For an intriguing analysis of those chapters in relation to this study please check out the following links -- Isaiah 38 / Jeremiah 8. Here's a hint: It's good -- there is hope -- but what's coming is bad too!

Ready for this? I was shocked when I looked at the Strong's Concordance for the word. I read that it is "a horse, so called from it's leaping"! And guess where we find Strong's H5483 in other parts of the Bible?

Ezekiel 38:4 (KJV) And I will turn thee back7725 , and put5414 hooks2397 into thy jaws3895, and I will bring thee forth3318 , and all thine army2428, horses5483 and horsemen6571, all of them clothed3847 with all sorts4358 [of armour, even] a great7227 company6951 [with] bucklers6793 and shields4043, all of them handling8610 swords2719:

Ezekiel 38:15 (KJV) And thou shalt come935 from thy place4725 out of the north6828 parts3411, thou, and many7227 people5971 with thee, all of them riding7392 upon horses5483, a great1419 company6951, and a mighty7227 army2428:

Ezekiel 39:20 (KJV) Thus ye shall be filled7646 at my table7979 with horses5483 and chariots7393, with mighty men1368, and with all men376 of war4421, saith5002 the Lord136 GOD3069.

There it is. Gog-Magog in plain view for us. Fitting. Timely.

We also find it SEVERAL TIMES throughout the Books of the "Minor Prophets" too. But here are some other uses of the word in Zechariah, which I believe are extremely relevant to our studies and this one...

Zechariah 1:8 (KJV) I saw7200 by night3915, and behold a man376 riding7392 upon a red122 horse5483, and he stood5975 among the myrtle trees1918 that [were] in the bottom4699; and behind310 him [were there] red122 horses5483, speckled8320, and white3836.

Zechariah 6:2 (KJV) In the first7223 chariot4818 [were] red122 horses5483; and in the second8145 chariot4818 black7838 horses5483;

Zechariah 6:3 (KJV) And in the third7992 chariot4818 white3836 horses5483; and in the fourth7243 chariot4818 grisled1261 and bay554 horses5483.

Zechariah 6:6 (KJV) The black7838 horses5483 which [are] therein go forth3318 into the north6828 country776; and the white3836 go forth3318 after310 them; and the grisled1261 go forth3318 toward the south8486 country776.

I hope we all recognize those horses by their colors and what they symbolize.

Coming full circle, I've recently learned that the new film Inception uses "Ariadne" as the name of one of the characters in the movie. Ariadne, is a dream scape architect. What the heck is the connection here? Am I reaching? Hardly!

In the past, we've already documented the connection between Ancient Greek and Roman Mythology and end times Bible prophecy (SEE "Apollyon" = "Apollo").

According to my research, we find that...

"The cult of Ariadne consisted of a ceremonial dance, the orgiastic rites and some lamentations. In the Iliad, Homer mentioned the Ariadne's dancing place (choros) prepared by the craftsman Daedalus in the Cnossian Palace. According to the Delian myth the famous Cretan Crane Dance was performed for the first time on the island of Delos by rescued youth, who were travelling with Theseus from Crete to Athens. So, this dance and image of Ariadne played always an important role in the cult on Delos. Also some vase painters depicted Ariadne in a context with dancing. There is a supposition that this ceremonial dance was a part of the collective marriage ritual for marrying couples.

The Ariadne's cult on Naxos was performed also with the orgiastic rites (like the festivals of joy) together with lamentations and expressions of sorrow (like during funeral ceremonies). In Amathus the sacrifices were brought in honour of Ariadne and at this place a special cult was practised in which a young man was simulating the pains of a woman giving childbirth with some screaming. Ariadne was also remembered in the Athenian festival The Oschophoria (celebration in honour of Theseus) and in the other Athenian festival The Anthesteria (performed in honour of Dionysus) as the wife of both of these two protagonists.

Dance or in Greek Choros. The mythical (choros), built by Daidalus for Ariadne (Iliad, 18.590), still remains a mysterious and ambiguous term for concerned scholars.It either signified the choral dance or the magical space where the dance was performed: namely the dancing floor. The ancient scholars interpreted choros as a place (topos), complete with columns and statues arranged in a circle. Recently discovered circular structures at Knossos were somehow related to Daidalic choros. In earlier texts, choros denoted dance without the indication of a dancing floor. The dance existed in itself and stayed as a temporal phenomenon. The meaning of the word is still on enigmatic grounds and its importance lies in this ambiguity, Ömür Harmansah Archaic Age and the Metamorphoses of Greek Culture.

Geranos (Γέρανος) (crane dance) was danced in Delos. According to Plutarch, Theseus after having killed the Minotaur in the Labyrinth of Knossos, on his way back to Athens, he stopped at Delos. There, he offered a sacrifice to the goddess Aphrodite and he danced around the altar. This dance included serpentine movements, imitating the movements of Theseus inside the Labyrinth. The dance is mentioned by Homer in the Iliad. Some experts say that Theseus danced the Geranos in Crete and not Delos.

Sexes did not mix during dance except for the chain or geronos dance. The dance reenacts the story of Ariadne, future wife of Dionysus and daughter of King Minos, aiding Theseus to escape the labyrinth after killing the Minotaur. The lovers flee to the island of Naxos where they erect a monument to Aphrodite and dance a winding, mazelike dance in her honor to celebrate their love.

Some have speculated that the name 'Ariadne' may mean 'the very holy one', and thus the Ariadne of Greek myth may be the (Minoan) Snake Goddess, 'reduced in legend to a folklore heroine.'"

That baby that was born on that Lufthansa flight that we looked at earlier? Guess what she was named? Trudance. Looking online I couldn't find any info on "name meaning" or "name origin" because it's basically a hybrid creation based on the mother's discretion.

Any Mathematicians out there who care to calculate the odds of us looking at THREE seemingly separate and unrelated stories where the plane's logo is a Crane, and the child's name is "Trudance" (or "True Dance"), which resonates STRONGLY with this goddess "Ariadne" who is also associated with one of the most mystical forms of ceremonial dance known as the "Cretan Crane Dance"!?!

What do you think about all of that? I hate to do this to you, but there's a connection to Roman Catholicism and their blasphemous worship of the Virgin Mary. If you think that's "too harsh" of me, then you need to research the proof which we tried to cover exhaustively to make it an open-and-shut-case during the Right Now Radio Special Report titled "What Every Catholic (And Christian) Needs To Know" that exposed the Cult of Mary.

Get a load of this! What song is associated with this goddess and this Crane Dance that's, in turn, associated with her?

The song, in English is called 'O Pure Virgin'.

http://www.matia.gr/7/72/7201/7201_1_9.html (for the Greek Version)

"Agni Parthene" is the hymn of St. Nektarios, which begins,
"Agni Parthene, Despina, ahrande Theotoke: here nimfi animfefte."

Agni Parthene (Gr. Αγνή Παρθένε) is a non-liturgical hymn composed in Greek by St. Nectarios of Aegina in the 19th century during his tenure as director of the Rizarios Theological School of Athens. St. Nektarios liked to compose hymns in honor of the Mother of God to deepen his personal prayer and relationship with her. The tradition passed down at the monastery of St. Nektarios, in Aegina, Greece, is that the Lady herself appeared before him and requested that he record on paper a particular hymn the angelic choirs were about to sing. This hymn was the "Agni Parthene". The original script can still be viewed on his prayer table in his bedroom at this monastery.

The original melody to this hymn was composed by an Athonite hymnographer who is said to also have had a vision of the Virgin Mary prior to composing the work. The recording of this melody by the Monks of Simonopetra has contributed significantly to the popularization of the hymn.

Due to its popularity, the hymn has been translated into many langauges and the original melody has been adapted to suit the particular style of church chanting. One such variation is the Valaam Monastery chant of the Russian translation.

The hymn of the Pure Virgin is part of A Small Theotokarion (Athens, 1905) a book of Hymns to the Mother of God, written by St. Nektarios.

This hymn has been used during communion in the Liturgy and it is sometimes chanted at the beginning of Vespers.

If we ended that that would be more than enough for our purposes. Hey, did you know that coming up between August 5th - August 8th thousands will descend upon Carthage, MO for what's called "Marian Days", which is the main festival and pilgrimage for Vietnamese American Roman Catholics, celebrated since 1978 on the 28-acre campus of the Congregation of the Mother Co-Redemptrix in Carthage, Missouri? Me neither.

Vietnamese Americans from many parts of the United States, as well as non-Vietnamese locals, and some visitors from Vietnam, attend the event. The celebration is held during the summer in honor of the Virgin Mary and is highlighted by a large, outdoor Mass each day. The Marian Days offer opportunities for Reconciliation and prayer.

Carthage Preps For Marian Days

The 33rd annual Marian Days festival will be held Aug. 5-8 at the Congregation of the Mother Co-Redemptrix, 1900 South Grand in Carthage.

I know! You can't make this stuff up! You're all well aware of the history of Carthage, it's role in the Bible (and in the history of Christianity), and how the "Battle of Carthage" (1861) was the beginning of the American Civil War, right? I just learned that Tarshish is translated Carthage in the Septuagint version of the Bible too!

However, I'm afraid the symbolism doesn't end there. I know this last reference will be "too over the top" for many (and perhaps evidence that I really am "nuts" and have lost it! LOL). All kidding aside, just recall ALL OF THE PROPHETIC IMAGERY, SYMBOLISM, AND THEMES we've been exploring not just in this forum lately, but all the rest.

Ok, now that all of that is fresh in your mind (especially the 2 "read-between-the-lines" type of headlines about Lufthansa that are not related to the plane crash from earlier today), take a look at this promotional video from Lufthansa...

Lufthansa Brand Movie

What elements do we find that struck me as being "odd" as it pertains to many of our recent studies around these parts...

* Allusions to the 144,000 mentioned in Revelation
* One Eye symbolism
* Sun symbolism
* Father-Son symbolism
* Lyrics to the song ("...a symphony of angels...")
* More Soccer symbolism
* The color orange again
* Pyramid/Triangle symbolism with hand gestures
* "Star Alliance" and 5-Pointed Star symbol
* Rose symbolism
* "We have an eye for details." (I laughed at that one!)

Like I said, I know that last journey into the symbolic was "over-the-top", and that's why I always hesitate with these types of symbolic studies (they're often more subjective than objective). So be it. There's your disclaimer I suppose.

Keep looking up! MARANATHA!!!

Guest On The Prophecy Zone

2010-07-27T12:41:00.001-04:00

Sunday night I had the honor and the privilege of being a Guest on The Prophecy Zone show hosted by Phillip Armstrong.

Phillip is a true pioneer in the Christian Podcast world since he's been producing shows for this ministry that the Lord gave him for the past several years now.

His show is described as follows...

Bible prophecy is the focus here on the Prophecy Zone. The current political landscape is setting the stage for bible prophecy to come to fulfillment. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17. Remember when you first accepted the truth of the Gospel and invited Jesus Christ into your life? You were changed at the instant you first believed. Old things, things you weren’t very happy with in your life, were deleted (passed away). Why then do you dwell on those things God has tossed away? Why do many believers go back to what influenced them and moved them towards evil desires? That’s how Satan works. He knew you before you were a new creation, and he thoroughly enjoys watching you squirm as he reminds you of your past. But it doesn’t need to be like that. “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus...” Romans 8:1. What does Paul mean when he refers to those who are “in Christ Jesus”? There is a spiritual union between Christ and believers. We are “In Christ” by faith, and Christ is in us by His Holy spirit. Condemnation only comes from Satan or his minions of evil, never from the Holy Spirit. But oh how we moan and groan as we’re reminded of our past failures. We have been changed in God’s eyes and He now sees us through His beloved Son, Jesus the Christ. If that’s how God sees us then it makes sense that Satan would have his work cut out for himself trying to get us to look back at what we once were. Sadly, many believers today allow Satan to have his way with them. Not only by looking back but going back to what we know is not of God. Satan has no authority over the heart, soul, mind, or spirit of a believer. He can’t touch who we are unless we allow him access through what we allow to enter our minds. The actions of many Christians today prove he has been allowed access to their hearts.

You can listen to the 90 minute discussion HERE if you'd like.

Please note that tonight's Guest on his LIVE program is Bill Salus!

On The Road With The Book

2010-07-27T03:00:00.001-04:00

Last week, I sat here with "Mrs JRed" trying to get comfortable despite this heatwave and we thought about putting on one of the 2 movies that we rented recently.

One was the Denzel Washington flick The Book of Eli and the other is a lesser known, but equally stunning and similar film (due to the apocalyptic theme) called The Road.

In The Book Of Eli, the story revolves around Eli, a nomad in a post-apocalyptic world, who is charged with delivering his copy of a book, the last remaining Bible (a King James Version translation), to a safe location on the West Coast of the United States. The history of the post-war world is explained along the way as is the importance of Eli's task. Thirty years after an apocalyptic event, Eli travels on foot toward the West Coast of the United States. Along the way, he demonstrates uncanny survival and fighting skills. Searching for a source of water, he arrives in a ramshackle town which was built by and is overseen by Carnegie. Carnegie dreams of building more towns and controlling the people with the power of a certain book. His henchmen scour the desolate landscape daily in search of it, but to no avail. As it turns out, the book he wants is the book Eli is tasked with protecting on his journey -- a King James Version of the Holy Bible. Like the story of Samson, Carnegie believes the Book itself is inherently powerful as an object, failing to realize that it's God -- not the Book -- that is powerful.

In The Road (based on the best-selling novel of the same name), the story follows an unnamed father and son journeying together across a grim post-apocalyptic landscape, some years after a great, unexplained cataclysm has destroyed civilization and almost all life on Earth. Realizing that they will not survive another winter in their unspecified original location, the father leads the boy south, through a desolate American landscape along a vacant highway, towards the sea, sustained only by the vague hope of finding warmth and more "good people" like them, and carrying with them only what is on their backs and what will fit into a damaged supermarket cart. Because of falling ash, the setting is very cold and dark and the land is devoid of living vegetation. There is frequent rain or snow, and electrical storms are common. Nearly all of the few human survivors are cannibalistic tribalists or nomads, scavenging the detritus of city and country alike for human flesh, though that too is almost entirely depleted.

Here are the trailers for both movies to help you get a better idea of what they're about...

The Book Of Eli - Trailer

The Road - Trailer

I should mention at the outset that both movies were not as graphic or violent as I had feared going in. Of course, the movie studios hype those angles and downplay the religious element to the narratives.

Yes, make no mistake, BOTH films have a very overt, very strong religious message to them that even the most hardened non-believer will pick up on. Not sure if that was done intentionally, but either way it's good to know that millions of lost souls have been exposed to the truth and perhaps have had their spiritual eyes opened slightly thanks to the Father using Hollywood to call the elect.

It's interesting how both movies deal with the aftermath of some kind of worldwide devastation that is unprecedented. In The Road, we are transported to a time only 3 or so years removed from the disaster. Oddly enough, the scenes shown in the trailers that depict natural disasters as being the result of the worldwide tragedy are not in the feature length presentation. In The Book Of Eli, we learn that the events taking place are roughly 30 years after the global catastrophe, or what's known as the enigmatic "The Flash" following nuclear world war.

Mrs JRed went off to bed and I stayed up to watch The Road by myself. The description on the back of the DVD case calls it "a story about the love a father has for his son..." or "a future in which men are pushed to the worst and the best that they are capable of -- a future in which a father and son are sustained by love..." Of course, right?

Within the first 5 minutes I was struck by this line by the Viggo Mortensen character...

"My son is my warrant. If he isn't the word of God, then God never spoke."

Yeah, I know.

A mere 5 minutes in I knew what I was in for. A mere 18 minutes in and I wanted to run upstairs, wake up my little boy Luke, and hold him in my arms telling him (again) how much his daddy loves him. By the end of the movie, I wanted to strengthen the bond between me and my children even more than I do each and every day.

The Road was definitely the more intimate and personal of the two films for me. I'm sure the Father-Son story had a lot to do with that being a dad myself. Still, that's not to say that The Book Of Eli didn't have an impact on me. Quite the contrary!

What I was most struck by after watching both flicks is this...

1. I need to strengthen my faith for any potential "hard times" that I might have to go through in this life (even if they're not the result of some unprecedented, end times, apocalyptic scenario).

2. I need to study the Bible and pray about how I would react and respond in the face of pure evil especially as it pertains to defending my family.

3. I need to nurture the kind of faith that expects miracles from God even in a time and a place where we do not see the kinds of miracles recorded for us throughout the Holy Bible because His divine, supernatural protection is real.

To help clarify what I mean by all of that, please listen to this brief interview with one of the actors who starred in The Road as the father...

The Road - Interview With Viggo Mortensen

I really hope you took some time to watch that interview especially if you're a parent.

I'll echo his sentiments here. Both films are the kind that break your heart, but also give you hope at the same time, and I walked away from them feeling different and wanting to bury myself in the Word right away. I also allowed them to leap frog into my own personal "Top 5 Favorite Films" of all time. As a former Film Student, I take that list seriously (HA!). So, what does that tell you?

So it goes sometimes with Hollywood. Most of the time they give us nothing but garbage, but every now and then they give us a masterpiece that speaks to the human condition.

No, I'm not saying that The Road or The Book Of Eli is on par with the historic classics. In fact, I'm sure they'll barely get a thought come Oscar time. However, in light of EVERYTHING that we've studied together, and given where I believe we are on God's prophetic timeline, I must say that these two movies strongly resonated with me on several levels.

On a visceral level, I imagined that the "fictional" world depicted on my TV screen was a preview of what the Bible warns us is coming during the Tribulation.

On a spiritual level, the truths communicated by the filmmakers of both productions (and their adherence to God's Word whether they did it intentionally or not), and the characters' commitment to such, was profound to me personally.

For instance, despite the violence that was depicted every now and then I didn't expect the story to follow what we read in the Book of Revelation...

Revelation 13:10 (KJV) He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

I also appreciated how BOTH movies didn't end the way I thought they would, which was extremely refreshing to this moviegoer. I drew parallels between that experience and the one that many so-called "Christians" (the "Christians-In-Name-Only") will sadly have one day in the near future when standing before Jesus Christ Himself (Matthew 7:23).

Furthermore, watching these movies also provided me with a stark reminder of what life COULD BE LIKE assuming we may be slightly off in our current understanding of the Rapture and our role in such an event.

The taglines for these movies are...

The Road: "In A Moment, The World Changed Forever..."

The Book Of Eli: "Believe."

Exactly, right?

Thus, in thinking about my reasons for sharing my experience with these two movies with you today I think I know what I want to say in conclusion.

Pray for the escape to come (Luke 21:36), but prepare for persecution as a Tribulation saint. That's the message I want to communicate to all of you following my viewing of these flicks.

Keep looking up! MARANATHA!!!

Battle: Los Angeles, Thor, Cowboys And Aliens!?!

2010-07-26T04:30:00.003-04:00

This is appropriate after we just looked at the documentary "The Day Before Disclosure" in the previous post.

For all intents and purposes, 2011 is looking like it's going to really go for the jugular when it comes to all the "Predictive Programming" associated with the "We-Are-Not-Alone" meme.

Ready for the latest in how Hollywood is upping the ante when it comes to advancing the "Alien/UFO" agenda? A Satanic agenda. Buckle your safety belts kids!

It's called Battle: Los Angeles and while we briefly mentioned this upcoming film in the past, the flick was hyped at the recent Comic Con in San Diego, CA a few days ago.

First, check out this promotional campaign that takes a page from the District-9 playbook and attempts to blur the lines between fantasy and reality...

Comic Con - Battle: Los Angeles Poster Reveals The W.A.T.C.H. Website

While roaming the streets of San Diego, our own Katey Rich spotted a little something hanging on the Hard Rock Hotel. Unlike most of the movie posters decorating the town for Comic Con, this one lacks a title. However, if you take the text and plug it into your web browser, you’re directed to the Battle: Los Angeles website.

The entry page offers up a little story about a 1942 occurrence during which thousands saw something in the Los Angeles sky. Shots were fired, but nothing was ever hit. The object disappeared, the investigation ended and that was that – until now. Enter the site to get a taste of what W.A.T.C.H. has to offer. It’s an organization dedicated to protecting the public from alien threats. The group's two top priorities? Inform the public of this danger and prepare and plan for impending attack.

The site comes packed with expert analysis videos during which two men offer up historical evidence that we’re not only not alone, but that we’re being watched. There are also some clips of civilians claiming to have caught a glimpse of something out of this world and newspaper clippings documenting sightings. In the words of W.A.T.C.H. “they are watching us, we must watch them,” so click here to head over to ReportThreats.org and study up.

We snapped a few more photos that show off the full display, including smaller banners over the windows of a nearby buildings that likely describe other "attacks" in other cities throughout history.

Here's the thing...Columbia Pictures' next move after that campaign makes absolutely no sense whatsoever! Of course, this adds further intrigue (maybe that's the point).

Two Second (Seriously) Snippet Of 'Battle: Los Angeles'

I am posting this merely because Columbia Pictures had the audacity to release it. Below is a two second "snippet" from Battle: Los Angeles, which was previewed at Comic Con on Thursday in longer form.

Now, if you're upset you aren't down in San Diego, spending your hard earned money to wait in line for hours upon hours just to see a trailer don't get too down on yourself. Today there was an alleged eye-stabbing in the convention's 6,500 seat Hall H as one conventioner wouldn't switch seats. Yes folks, he was allegedly stabbed in the eye by this man. That's how important trailers have apparently gotten. As for the movie? He'll probably just download the torrent.

SIDE NOTE: Harrison Ford was on hand shortly after for the Cowboys and Aliens panel and was ushered on stage in handcuffs as the Hall H stabber.

Moving on, sit back, in your safe (I hope) environment and enjoy a solid two seconds of footage. I have uploaded this one to YouTube so I don't run the risk of you having to watch 15-30 seconds of pre-roll before watching this video. Then again, I won't blame you if you don't hit play at all… however, you're already here so have at it.

Battle: Los Angeles is directed by Jonathan Liebesman (Darkness Falls) and stars Aaron Eckhart and Michelle Rodriguez. The film is an alien invasion feature actually based on a true story. It's set to hit theaters on March 11, 2011.

For more on the film and a look at three stills click here.

Interesting, isn't it? Do yourself a favor and swing by the W.A.T.C.H. website because it's so IN-YOUR-FACE that for anyone to deny that we're being conditioned to accept this coming reality is just plain intellectually dishonest.

Did you catch that other "Aliens-Against-The-World" movie set to hit theaters 2 months after this one called Cowboys And Aliens? Oh yeah, and sandwiched in between these 2 flicks is another comic-inspired feature called Thor, and based on the images and descriptions unveiled at the same Comic Con event I'd say that this is becoming pretty overt.

See what I mean?

And we thought that District-9 was something to behold, huh? Well, I think it's clear that they're gearing up for an "Us-Vs-Them" framework -- just as we've speculated lately.

Let's not forget, this heightened tension created by the Luciferians in Hollywood is not reserved for only the silver screen. No! We'll be seeing the SAME THEME depicted on Cable TV in 2011 as well. The hit series V is scheduled to return, and who could forget Steven Spielberg's next project Falling Skies starring Noah Wyle (to debut next Summer). It's being described as the "Jericho meets Independence Day" series. Be sure to read that last hyper-linked report for a description of the trailer that was shown at Comic Con.

The evidence becomes plain to see when you read excerpts from the latest write-up about this new television series...

"...picks up six months after an alien invasion has wiped out a sizeable chunk of the human population. Did they leave any parting gifts? Well, that's the big mystery, and the characters will be trying to wrap their heads around what happened just as much as the audience will be, co-executive producer and writer Mark Verheiden (Battlestar Galactica) said at a Comic-Con panel Friday."

"Noah Wyle stars as a Boston University American history professor whose wife died in the invasion. One of his sons has been captured by aliens. He's got beef, and fortunately, his expertise in the American Revolution makes him a natural leader in the battle against the aliens."

"Producers said while the series is filled with action, its story is about humanity. The survivors are grappling both with a radically different world and the threat of another invasion."

"'How do you rebuild a society from scratch when you're constantly under threat?' Wyle said. '[They] become the architects of the next Constitution. If something hit the reset button, what are the aspects we'd want to retain from the life before?'"

Yep, it's coming.

This is precisely why I've always said that I believe Satan (and those loyal to him) will attempt to use the so-called "Alien/UFO" card to deceive millions. Why wouldn't he? And the "Us-Vs-Them" construct seems like the perfect evil scheme for him to try and pull off because there's no better way to dissolve borders and national/international disputes than to unite the world against a global threat from space.

Politicians and religious leaders are well aware of that. Ask the Vatican. Just ask Harry S. Truman. Or Jimmy Carter. For that matter, Ronald Reagan not once, but twice. Even former White House Chief of Staff John Podesta. Oh, and Hillary Clinton too. Who can forget Kucinich during the last Election cycle? Yes, even Obama. All had something unique to say about the phenomenon.

Folks, we'd be wise to get our spiritual house in order while we still can. Be sure to pray for God to grant you wisdom and discernment about such things too.

Keep looking up! But not in fearful anticipation of what we're being told is coming. Look up in hopeful anticipation our of salvation that awaits in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Lord, come quickly!

The Day Before Disclosure (Us Against Them?)

2010-07-26T04:00:00.009-04:00

We typically try to view those documentaries that are gaining in popularity online so that we can share some thoughts with you about them before you sit down and invest the time to watch them yourself.

Today, I finally had a chance to watch the critically-acclaimed "The Day Before Disclosure" and while it was everything I expected, I must say that I am more convinced than ever before that the entire so-called "Alien/UFO" phenomenon is poised to take a MAJOR leap forward very soon as "Full Disclosure/First Contact" is thrust upon an unsuspecting world.

The producers were able to bring together so many men and women that society would deem "credible" and "respectable", which definitely adds some weight to their claims. They also go to great lengths to document each and every claim with evidence; evidence that can be easily verified by you or me. Look, we've never said that the phenomenon isn't real. No, just that it's wrong to be classified as being anything but a spiritual and demonic occurrence.

The film itself asserts...

"The Extra Terrestrial presence in our world is no longer a question of IF, but rather a question of WHO, WHY, and FROM WHERE."

Precisely.

So, without further adieu, here's the documentary in case you want to watch it for yourself some time (as a Christian, just don't fall for the non-spiritual explanations given, or the ones that say the "Aliens" are the "gods" who created us!)...

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 1

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 2

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 3

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 4

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 5

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 6

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 7

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 8

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 9

The Day Before Disclosure - Part 10

Does anyone else find it ironic how the Director and home of the production company responsible for this is Norway -- the same place where the world was introduced to the infamous "Norway Spiral" back in December 2009?

Aside from the typical New Age, "a whole new level of consciousness" baloney (amongst other absurdities mentioned), I was surprised that a documentary that I was told was quite "academic" in its approach and with the information presented DID NOT include some of the most glaring evidence to suggest that this is AN ENTIRELY SPIRITUAL PHENOMENON as opposed to anything extraterrestrial.

What in the world am I talking about? How about the revolutionary report from Stephen Yulish PhD in January 2009 that documented how "Alien" abductions are stopped dead in their tracks by a potential victim saying the name of Jesus Christ? Does that work? Would it have been too much to ask for the filmmakers to include that tidbit in their documentary?

In any event, I've been thinking about this subject lately after moving away from it for awhile and I'm beginning to think that Bill Cooper may have been right.

You've probably all seen the Washington Post report from a few days ago that supports accounts of military personnel keeping "UFO" secrets from commanders. That, to me, goes hand-in-hand with this whole "Disclosure" movement and Cooper's warnings.

Look, I don't believe EVERYTHING that Cooper wrote in his classic Behold A Pale Horse (I haven't even read the whole thing myself yet). But I do believe SOME of it.

Remember what Cooper said about all of this? He said that The-Powers-That-Be intend to use this "Alien/UFO" stuff to frighten us about "ETs" as a global threat to humanity to help globalize us into that fascist New World Order they want so badly. Recall President Ronald Reagan's famous words to this effect...

Ronald Reagan On Alien Threat

Who can forget this video that went viral too with a commentary on those working to establish a New World Order by any means necessary...

Dr. Carol Rosin On Alien/UFO Agenda

Why am I bringing all of this up? Well, because what if they not only revealed to us that "Aliens/UFOs" were real in the form of the anticipated "Full Disclosure" event, but that THEY WERE THE ONES RESPONSIBLE for oh, I don't know, the Gulf Oil Rig fire and resulting Gulf Crisis? After all, a few days ago we openly asked the question: Did a space-based weapon cause the fire on the Oil Rig that led to the Gulf Crisis? Some of the evidence is quite compelling.

Maybe the plan is to admit the existence and use of these Laser weapons in space, but not in the way we think. Will we be told one day soon (in this 2010: The Year We Make Contact) that the 2 blueish-purple beams of light seen hitting the Oil Rig was NOT from the military's space-based weapons, but from the "bad Aliens" who want to destroy our planet and us, and that that's why the militaries of the world have been weaponizing space? Just a thought.

I know I've been speculating a lot in this forum lately, but isn't speculation the natural outcome of the command to "watch and pray" throughout the Bible especially as it pertains to the prophesied end times?

We know that deception will be rampant in these days, and because of that truth I simply put these POSSIBILITIES out there -- just in case -- and in the hopes that we'll all learn to think critically once again (learn to just think instead of swallowing everything that's force fed to us by the mainstream media).

Of course, we should ALWAYS take all things to the Lord in prayerful consideration. As before, please just put this on your "spiritual radar" as "another possibility to be mindful of" that The-Powers-That-Be MIGHT USE one day to try and pull of the greatest deception that modern mankind has ever seen.

In the meantime, keep looking up. MARANATHA!!!

Cloud Seeding (Or Playing God With Nature) And A Retro Cartoon

2010-07-26T03:00:00.001-04:00

This is for any Clouding Seeding and/or Chemtrail skeptics out there.

Bulacan, officially called the Province of Bulacan (or Lalawigan ng Bulakan in Filipino), or simply Bulacan Province, is a first class province of the Republic of the Philippines.

They're also one of the first (China was the other during the Summer Olympics in 2008) to utilize Cloud Seeding techniques in a very public way...

Angat Dam Water Level Rises Anew As Cloud Seeding Begins
July 23, 2010, 3:41pm

MALOLOS CITY, Bulacan (PNA) — The water level at Angat Dam surged anew due to heavy rains pelting its watershed area amid the ongoing cloud seeding operations being conducted by the Bureau of Soils and Water Management.

The Provincial Disaster Management Office said that from 158.67 meters recorded on Thursday, the water level at the dam's giant reservoir rose to 159.76 meters Friday morning (8:00 a.m.) or an increase of 1.09 meters.

Dam officials earlier said that the water level will rise once the rains hit the watershed area.

On Thursday, the BSWM began their cloud seeding operation within the Angat Dam area.

Blessie Concepcion, cloud seeding operator of BSWM, said that it took them at least an hour before they scattered 300 kilos of salt around the dam's area.

She said they have to wait for the report of their spotter team who are looking for seedable clouds before proceeding with the seeding operations.

The factors to have rain are there, that's why there was high possibility to have rain in the Angat Dam area, Concepcion told local newsmen at the Plaridel airport where the cloud seeding airplane of BSWM was taking off.

Like many other controversial subjects, Chemtrails/Cloud Seeding was one that I stayed away from for far too long. It wasn't until this past Memorial Day Weekend when I decided to take a closer look from a Christian perspective.

Soon after, as in just this past week, this following video was brought to my attention...

Pilot Films Chemtrail Plane From His Cockpit

As it turns out, the "science" seems to be going mainstream based on a quick Google search on the subject. Then again, this morning my wife and I were shocked to learn it had probably been there all along and we just chose to ignore it.

My son was watching a rerun of an old, short-lived cartoon (only 11 original episodes that first aired from 1976-1977) called "Dynomutt, Dog Wonder" (a lot of heavy symbolism in that one! like a Horus-esque Falcon superhero -- the "BLUE" [Azure Blue?] Falcon no less -- and a Sirius-esque "Dog Star" superhero). At one point, we heard the token "bad guy" say that he was going to use "Cloud Seeding" to wreak havoc on the "Big City" below!

Dynomutt, Dog Wonder TV Intro

Just out of curiosity, I wanted to take a look at some of the content from the other episodes. Incredibly, these "fictional" plots in a "meaningless" children's cartoon from the 1970s are those that should be very familiar to us given our studies of these end times.

Other themes with what I perceived to be the modern-day connection (and prophetic relevance?) in a mere 11 episodes...

The DOD/Pentagon's Concept For A One World Military Machine

Using Hollywood As A Weapon ("Predictive Programming" And Then Some?)

Using A Swamp (The Gulf Region?) As A Weapon

Using Music/Sound Waves As A Form Of Mind Control

Chemical/Biological Warfare - Pharmaceuticals Used In "Black Awakening"

What Big Pharma And ObamaCare Intends To Do To Us?

Big Brother Tech As A Weapon Used Against Us (Totalitarian Regime)

Using Higher Education To Give Criminals Easy Access To Positions Of Power

Obviously, I had some fun with this, but how ridiculous is it that the SAME THEMES are present today in the real-world threatening our freedoms, lives, and well-being?

Yes, sometimes a cartoon is just a cartoon. No, I don't think all of this was put there intentionally to reveal some kind of "Master Plan" for the Luciferian Satanic slaves in this world. But I do think that when these sorts of synchronicities pop up like this in the most random places we should pay attention.

Who are we to say that our loving Father isn't trying to use the things we spend most of our time with (TV) to get our attention about some very important subjects that present a danger?

Anyway, I found today's study of the surreal to be surreal with a capital S. Whether you want to acknowledge it or not, Chemtrails and Cloud Seeding is a reality.

So-called "Global Warming", preventing the effects of a drought upon a region aside, the question we need to ask is what are they doing and why are they doing it?

Pray for wisdom and discernment in these deceptive days.

C.H. Spurgeon - Notable Quotables

2010-07-20T17:30:00.003-04:00

I love these which I saw earlier today on another blog...

"God never clothes men until He has first stripped them, nor does He quicken them by the gospel till first they are slain by the Law.

Another Test Run For The Battle Of Armageddon? Space Based Weapon Used On Oil Rig? A Connection Between The Gulf Crisis And 9/11?

2010-07-20T17:15:00.003-04:00

NOTE: I wasn't going to publish this just yet, but recent news has forced me to. Besides, I've learned in my young life that people are more inclined to listen to the truth when they hear it soon after similar claims pop up in the mainstream news. We all agree that the corporate mainstream news on both the Left and the Right is incredibly biased, but every now and then they slip up and provide us with something we can use to our own advantage in helping to get people to recognize what's REALLY going on in this world -- a spiritual war manifesting itself here in the physical realm in the form of conspiracies and "False Flags" perpetrated by the numerous "kings of the earth" who roam the halls of power serving another god who stands in complete opposition to our God. So, in light of the news from The New York Times published Friday, July 16, 2010 that proved the NSA falsified intercepted communications in the Gulf of Tonkin incident that led to our involvement in the Vietnam War, and the piece published Monday, July 19, 2010 by The Washington Post that unveiled its comprehensive, alarming, and much-anticipated report on "Top Secret America", and the commentaries that followed, and the unprecedented news published today that the U.S. Navy successfully used a Laser recently to shoot down Drones it's now or never I think. In other words, you gotta strike while the iron's hot. I was going to produce a podcast on all of this to air simultaneous to its being published, but I simply don't have the time. That being said, please forgive me for any typos. Please, please, please take the time to let all of this sink in and then prayerfully consider the deadly serious implications. Above all else, don't respond to any of this with a spirit of fear! Rest in Jesus Christ and on the promises found in the Word of God! Keep looking up! MARANATHA!!!

Let's set the stage properly before we get started...

"Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope... and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
- President Robert F. Kennedy

"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
- Arthur Schopenhauer

As accurate as those statements are, let's set the stage with the only truth that matters...

Proverbs 18:15 (KJV) The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

Proverbs 8:7 (KJV) For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

Proverbs 12:19 (KJV) The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.

Proverbs 12:22 (KJV) Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.

You might want to grab a seat and stay awhile because this is going to be one of those long ones. Please don't tell me you don't have enough time, or that it's the Summer and there are better things to do right now. What could be more important than the truth and getting your spiritual house in order after being armed with the truth? Exactly.

It's probably good to be sitting down too when you first discover some of the things that will be highlighted in this piece because they're paradigm-shifting in the sense that while we conceptually believe this sort of thing is possible, is a whole other ball game to actually see it manifested in reality before your very eyes.

The catalyst for today's journey in pursuit of the truth? One FACT reported in two separate news items separated by about 2 weeks from each other by the secular news media.

The first one goes back to June 28th, 2010, when the US White House revealed that they're seeking to avoid a "space war" when they released their National Space Policy. The policy reopens the door to international arms-control measures against space weapons, reversing the 2006 policy of George W. Bush's administration, which ruled out such talks.

The second one is a commentary on the administration's intended policy written and published by New Scientist in the article "Star Wars: A New Hope For Arms Control In Space" dated only a few days ago on July 7th, 2010.

That brings us to this report. Sorry for the long title, but I believe it accurately captures my sentiments accurately. On second thought, I might want to add another line so that it reads...

Another Test Run For The Battle Of Armageddon? Space Based Weapon Used On Oil Rig? A Connection Between The Gulf Crisis And 9/11? More Evidence Of A Conspiracy And A Cover-Up Going Back Several Decades?

Please, please, please take the time to work your way through this ENTIRE STUDY from beginning to end. This should help underscore EVERYTHING and prove -- once and for all -- the sinister nature of the "kings of the earth" (and the validity of Bible prophecy for the last days) for any Christian fence-sitters and non-believing skeptics out there.

A key foundation for this entire piece is the belief that the "kings of the earth" are doing all they can to militarize space with high-tech, sophisticated, space-based weapons that they will intend to use during the prophesied Battle of Armageddon against Jesus Christ and His Armies from Heaven (2 Thessalonians 1:7).

Make no mistake, the whole so-called "Alien/UFO" phenomenon will play a key role in all of this. How? Well, we can only speculate at this point, but if we were to make an educated guess based on the information available to us (and given our belief that the entire phenomenon is entirely spiritual as opposed to anything "extraterrestrial"), then I think it's likely that we'll be told that there are "good Aliens" and there are "bad Aliens" in the universe.

Remember, there has to be a legitimate reason why the world is ok with putting weapons in space. Might the coming One World Government, the coming One World Military, propose that we do so as a defense mechanism against the "bad Aliens"? If so, then you just know that Jesus Christ and those with Him will be labelled the "bad guys" in such a scenario. That's not mere speculation either. That's Biblical. It's the Battle of Armageddon.

Anyway, I finally came around to accepting such a line of thinking after much prayerful consideration and research into the subject. I mean, when you just stop and think things through it starts to make perfect sense. We know what The-Powers-That-Be believe. We know what they want to do to us. We know what they're going to try in order to achieve their plans. A high-tech military industrial complex is their greatest tool in pursuit of their endeavors. In fact, we were warned about this decades ago. Sadly, we didn't listen.

Dwight D. Eisenhower's Farewell Address On January 17,1961

President Eisenhower Warns The U.S.

Just a single year later, President John F. Kennedy gave this speech that some say was the reason for his assassination...

JFK Speech On Conspiracy And Secret Societies

Such a speech should quiet those who respond to "secret societies" and any mention of "conspiracies" from Christians like me as nothing more than pure nonsense, as well as to those who think of "secret societies" as "not harmful" to this world and those of us who inhabit it.

If such beliefs were true, then I find it irrational for our 35th president, John F. Kennedy, to even mention it let alone to be more or less dead set on revealing them to an ill-informed public like he attempted to in the above speech to the national press.

The only sensible explanation in hindsight is that JFK knew the potential of a government and military run in secrecy. He knew the power and dangers of invisible societies, of who the Bible calls the "kings of the earth", scheming covertly in the shadows. Sadly, he was killed in cold blood soon after.

Folks, that was almost 50 years ago. How much farther has the Satanic "New World rder" agenda advanced since then? How much more advanced do you think the military "toys" are today when compared with the kind they had back then? The line between Science Fiction and Science fact is more than blurry -- it's almost non-existent now.

What kind of weapons are we talking about here? Again, the kind you can deploy in space. Think about them being a mix of what we see in Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica and any other Sci-Fi work you can think of.

Let's also not forget that once you have all those nice new toys you need people who are willing to use them (willing to test them out) for you. This next clip is a short one, but it's worth sharing at this point.

Even though this was from back in 2007, and in response to the Bush Administration, what I want you to notice is how it STILL APPLIES TO THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION in power today! The words you're about to hear could be uttered today in response to what we're seeing, and no one would know the difference. There has been no "change"! It's just "business-as-usual", "politics-as-usual", and the political theater continues.

The Truth In America

It's all true, and it's all a joke to those in power at the highest levels of political office...

Kerry And Bush Joke About U.S. Deaths In Iraq!?!

Bush Jokes About Not Finding Cause For War!?!

Obama Jokes About Predator Drones!?!

The point is that this is what MUST occur on the path to the fulfillment of the Bible's end times prophecies. We can't stop it. We're not God (or gods for that matter). All we can do is spiritually prepare our hearts and minds as well as the hearts and minds of others by preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and by clinging to His numerous promises throughout Scripture.

Psalm 91:4-7 (KJV) He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Psalm 23:4-5 (KJV) Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Romans 8:35-39 (KJV) Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Proverbs 3:25-26 (KJV) Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

One final comment before we get to the "meat and potatoes" of this post. All of this reminds me of what Pastor Russ Dizdar of Shatter The Darkness Ministries said so eloquently as it pertains to this subject. Listen to his comments when he was a Guest on Future Quake a couple of months ago and start around the 30-minute mark. There was a keen observation he made about the Military Industrial Complex and its build-up of high-tech weapons in space and the likely connection to the prophesied Battle of Armageddon.

End Times Bible Prophecy For The Weaponization of Space?

So, to quickly recap before moving on, a key foundation for this entire piece is the belief that the "kings of the earth" are doing all they can to militarize space with high-tech, sophisticated, space-based weapons that they will intend to use during the prophesied Battle of Armageddon against Jesus Christ and His Armies from Heaven.

Let's shift gears and focus on the present day and the topic on everyone's mind: the Gulf Crisis. Many of you have asked me to provide some sort of hard copy report on all the information that was jam-packed into last week's 2-Part, 6-Hour Right Now Radio "Special Report" on the Gulf Crisis titled "Anatomy Of A Conspiracy: BP, Government, Military Collusion Created A Crisis In The Gulf" and I want to try and do just that even if only focusing on one aspect of the program. For the much shorter (and very condensed) version please read this.

The entire presentation was a humble attempt to catalog EVERYTHING we know to be FACT at this point in time that clearly proves -- via common sense -- that this is a classic "conspiracy" in every sense of the word.

Part 1 dealt with all the evidence from a secular standpoint leaving the spiritual roots and Bible prophecy out of the mix for any Christian fence-sitters as well as the non-believers and skeptics. Part 2 dealt with all the evidence from a Biblical perspective including the spiritual elements and Bible prophecy for those with ears to hear and eyes to see.

Before the conclusion of Part 2, I shared some stunning information that's beginning to get more attention online. It's a story that first saw the light of day by Dr. Tru Ott and only a few blogs that I could tell.

The Dr. Tru Ott, PhD connection is a BIG ONE because he was also the Investigative Reporter who first broke the story about Joseph Moshe, or the Israeli Microbiologist who outed Baxter Pharmaceuticals last Summer over their tainted H1N1/Swine Flu vaccine, which he claimed was really a bioweapon that was going to be first unleashed from their facility in the Ukraine.

Remember that? We all know how Moshe turned out to be spot on -- a full 1-2 months BEFORE this claim manifested as a reality in Eastern Europe! In my book, Ott's role in bringing that story to us solidified his credibility and reputation.

To help introduce this here's what I said during the broadcast last week...

"You know, before we move on to other items of interest tonight, I want to officially go on record with some additional information related to this Gulf Crisis that is just insane to think about. My disclaimer at the outset here is that I fully recognize how CRAZY this is going to sound, Yes, crazy – even in light of everything we already know about the situation down there on the ground and the likely scenarios that will play out in the days and weeks ahead. What do we already know at its most basic level? That what the Bible refers to as the 'kings of the earth', or who we would call those global elites who roam the halls of power around the world, whether in Big Business, or Big Government, or Big Military, that they’ve orchestrated a 'False Flag' of sorts here, and that whether the Oil Rig really did catch fire unexpectedly or as a direct result of blowing it up, the point is that they’re now using the crisis to their full advantage in all the ways that we’ve been exploring over the past several weeks. Like Rahm Emmanuel said, 'You never want to let a good crisis go to waste...' The bottom line is that a majority of us are already completely comfortable accepting the fact that this is a genuine conspiracy in the classic definition of the word. What I’m going to ask you to consider now is to go a little further and AT LEAST CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITY – JUST THE POSSIBILITY – that what I’m about to share with you is accurate and sinister with a capital S. One final comment. None of this information is 'Breaking News' per se, since several of my sources have alluded to this recently. HOWEVER, I just didn’t run with the story anywhere until we could all gather a little more information to verify some of the claims. Let me play a clip for you to help set the stage for this next part. It comes to us from a man by the name of Adrian Salbuchi. I don't know too much about him, but as far as I know he's just another Truther like the rest of us. The question? As absurd as it might sound at first blush, the question that will be asked is: 'Was the BP Oil Rig destroyed by a Laser Beam from a Top Secret military weapon in space?' Listen to this sound byte from Adrian Salbuchi..."

Crazy, right?

As unbelievable a thought as that might be, I guarantee you that there is sufficient evidence to support such a claim, and hard evidence that moves this well beyond the realm of mere fantasy and pure speculation.

Here's the audio and video that was played during Part 2 of the RNR broadcast in connection with this possibility (pay close attention to the video below from 8:39 - 10:10)...

Did A Laser Beam From A Space Weapon Cause The Oil Rig Fire?

What did you think about that especially after seeing the photos and listening to his astute analysis of the observations he made? He says it very well and makes an excellent point on the damage to the platform.

Go back and listen to it again VERY CAREFULLY. As mentioned, Salbuchi is actually the second well respected international figure (along with Dr. Tru Ott, PhD) who gives credence to this possibility and the likelihood that this, in fact, was a traditional "False Flag" event.

He also points out the coincidence of the Top Secret military mission to space at THE SAME TIME and also points out the coincidence of Hitler’s birthday on THE SAME DAY the Rig went down. I didn't notice the Earth Day correlation either until I saw this video myself, but that adds further intrigue too, doesn't it?

Also, remember all the evidence from Part 1 of the RNR "Special Report", but most notably the fact that the trades by the owners of BP and the CEO where they made millions of dollars in profit using insider knowledge of what was coming. This is clearly a criminal plot in my book even if I'm way off base on this "Weapon-From-Space" angle.

Let's focus on Mr Ott's research for a moment. Dr. Tru Ott PhD, was one of the first to go public with this theory, and he provided great technical info along with a convincing video showing 2 blue Laser Beams of light hitting the Rig as it was burning! He even made an excellent case for just such an event occurring. Here's a recent interview Ott gave to Dr. Bill Deagle...

Dr. Tru Ott With Dr. Bill Deagle: Space-Based Wapon Involved In Gulf Crisis

That video with the 2 blue beams first began making the rounds sometime back early on in in the crisis (in early May I think), along with the other video of the military spokesperson who had said that BP was their quote-unquote "partner", and she later had to admit she "used bad phrasing" (but we know that's not the case, right?).

Sorry, I'm getting a little sidetracked, but that mention is also relevant to this discussion. How so? Just watch this montage, but PAY CLOSE ATTENTION to the military spokesperson at the 2:17 mark and notice how she catches her mistake and tries to backtrack!

SWAT Teams!?! Coast Guard Is 'Partners' With BP!?! Why?

A quick comment on the ending of that video. Yes, "humans win", but only when they accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Plain and simple.

Please notice throughout the above montage the movement toward a full military response to this crisis. Why? Part of the "partnership"? The Goldman Sachs BP people do the set-up for the Oil Rig, the military tests their new space weapon, then they occupy the Gulf Region militarily? Why?

Let's return to this possibility that a space-based weapon was the cause of the Oil Rig fire. Now, after this video of the 2 Laser Beams of light hitting the Oil Rig went up, and the video had been out there for over a month showing the Laser Beams coming down onto the Rig, the video was then suddenly pulled! Isn't that suspicious? It should be.

I wish I would’ve ran with it and put it up on Look Up Fellowship at the time, but I wanted to verify a few things on my own first, which is why you're seeing this story here for the first time even though it's been out there for over 2 months now.

In case this is all new to you, and you never saw the footage or the pics associated with it, what was unusual about the video in question was the MASSIVE beam of intense purple-bluish light projecting skyward from the exploding Deepwater Horizon Rig, or coming down from a space-based weapon perhaps.

Guess what? We found the video in question!!! Have a look for yourself...

LIVE FOOTAGE: Deep Water Horizon Moments After Explosion
(NOTE: An expletive or two in the clip below...)

Ryan Chaisson, Wes Bourg, Dustin King, and Albert Andry (the person who filmed and posted this video online) were fishing near the Oil Rig right before it exploded. By their own account, they were fishing the leg of it when they noticed rushing water coming down the derek, Gas began blowing out the side of it, and they ran from the Rig. It exploded seconds later. They got to a safe distance and this is what they recorded.

Go back and watch it one more time. Listen closely to what one of the men says around the :45 second mark...

"I see two blue lights look!"

Case closed? I believe that we can make some conclusions by his account.

Why is that statement an absolutely critical piece of eyewitness testimony? Because the skeptics (like me when I first heard about this and saw the footage and still photos) will try to explain this off as being nothing more than a case of an "optical illusion", and nothing but what happens when light from a fire being reflected off the water at night is recorded through a camera lens. If that's truly the case, then how in the world could that man have seen two blue lights like we see on the video image with the naked eye!?! That's the one question that all of this hinges on I think.

Furthermore, please note that as the camera moves, the blue beams from the sky DO NOT MOVE with the camera, and instead they stay fixed above the Oil Rig! This is very important. Thus, it is NOT an artifact of the camera itself, and, in fact, you can see (if you look carefully the reflection of the lines in the water), BUT NOT IN THE FIRE REFLECTION in the water, which would happen if it were a camera anomaly.

That is a critical point to show that this was part of the event as it was unfolding. If the blue beam below the horizon was merely a reflection on the water, then it would have intermittent intensity with the angle of the refraction/reflection from the undulating waves. However, it is of solid intensity, equally, above and below the horizon. Plus, the location of the 2 blue beams MATCHES the holes in the platform!

Check out these two blue beams on on the above video. It appears to be coming from the sky and it never lets up. Is that what this is all about?

Let's just use a little logic if you don't want to trust your eyes. Because oil blow outs, even the worse one just do not happen that way, it appeared to be a "surface" generated blowup that started with the Rig and moved down and he said that when he saw the first pics of it.

Then came the interviews with the workers who said that all electricity stopped and went dark just before the blowout, which would happen if the weapon used was an Energy Beam like you'd expect from a space-based weapon. Once you see the blue beams of light doesn't it all start to make so much sense?

North Korea didn't work for World War III. The Middle East hasn't exploded into all-out war yet. So now they are pulling out all the stops perhaps? Is this NASA's infamous "Project Blue Beam" in action here? Have we been mislead about it's full capabilities allowing us to think it's merely relegated to holograms and not anything weaponized? I'm just thinking out loud here.

Maybe this is all part of the "Predictive Programming" as a prelude to the whole "Alien/UFO Full Disclosure - First Contact" thing. You know, like maybe The-Powers-That-Be will use this very same video one day to suggest, "Hey, Aliens are real! There are 'good' and 'bad' ons and the bad Aliens are obviously responsible because they've attacked us in the Gulf, and are planning to invade soon!" Is that what this is all about?

By now, we all know that this is a conspiracy in one way, shape, or form and it gets stranger by the day. With these psychos, it's hard to know what it's all about, but we will continue to dig and find out. Why?

Ephesians 5:11 (NIV) Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.

First and foremost, it's absolutely serendipitous that these fishermen would be out in the water at such a PRECISE location and time to capture all of this on film. That to me is very telling and says so much. It's also quite telling that we haven't seen this footage making the rounds on all the basic and cable news networks since the Gulf Crisis began. Why is that?

You know what I believe to be the reason why. Because this video is proof positive that there's something to this charge of a space-based weapon being responsible here. It's at least plausible in light of this powerful video evidence.

Take a close look at the hole in the Rig's platform. The hole in the platform could not have been made by fire or burning. There is enough easily accessible evidence that you can quickly find online to substantiate this for yourself. The point is that this is now quickly becoming similar to the charges of conspiracy involving 9/11 and whether or not steel (like the kind that made up the two World Trade Center towers) could burn as quickly as it did.

Obviously, this begs the question: Was the same kind of space-based Laser/Scalar/Tesla weapon used on the BP Oil Rig in the Gulf that was used on the World Trade Center towers on 9/11?

If you think such a suggestion is even more out of line with the one presented in this study today, think again. There's actually ample evidence for such a likelihood. We just don't want to bring ourselves to consider the possibility due to the implications, which is odd because we say we believe in God, His Word, and the reality of Satan and Hell, and we've seen what evil men are capable of when seduced by Satan's charms, and still we ignore the evidence that's staring us in the face because it's "too fantastic" or "too unbelievable". Why?

I'm getting sidetracked again. If you're still inclined to immediately reject any charges of "conspiracy" when it comes to what happened on 9/11, then please listen to this short audio sound byte from Judge Napolitano recorded on FutureQuake back in May, and then READ THIS and THIS.

Here's the 9/11 evidence I want you to at least prayerfully consider within the context of our presentation here today because apparently I'm not the only one who's asking these questions...

Was A Laser Weapon Used On 9/11!?!

Was A Laser Weapon Used On 9/11!?! (Part 2)

Was A Laser Weapon Used On 9/11!?! (Part 3)

The questions raised in that video series are legitimate and profound and we should be asking them ourselves. Unfortunately, there's even more video evidence from that fateful day that demonstrates the use of high-tech weapons being used. Here's more...

Laser Targeting UAV: Evidence Of Military Technology On 9/11

That above video and analysis, to me, goes hand-in-hand with what we saw with the 2 blue Laser Beams hitting the Oil Rig in the Gulf. But there's one more video series I want to point out. Up to this point, we've dealt with just Laser weaponry. What about Scalar/Tesla type weapons like the kind believed to have been used on the Oil Rig?

Here's a classic interview from January 2008 featuring Dr. Judy Wood and Andrew Johnson discussing how it looks as if the WTC was destroyed by some type of energy/frequency technology related to the Hutchison Effect.

(Note the 4:30 mark and compare images to those on Oil Rig Platform)

9/11 & Energy Weapons (Day One) PART 6

9/11 & Energy Weapons (Day One) PART 7

Ladies and Gentlemen, we've already documented how we haven't been told the FULL STORY about 9/11 here on LUF. There are SEVERAL unusual discrepancies that defy common sense, and for anyone to casually dismiss them before admitting some kind of foul play regarding the "official" version of events is intellectually dishonest. Just go to this site's Search Bar and type in "9/11" for some of the case studies up until this point.

One final piece of visual evidence related to the 9/11 angle here. This is a photo that received widespread popularity back in 2007 (even though it was shot back in 2005). Some suggest that it's the natural side effect of what happens to an area after a high-tech Laser Beam/Scalar weapon is used. Some even charge that this is the reason why no building has been constructed on the site since (almost like the area is permanently contaminated). Take a look...

Sure, it could be a hoax and a case of Photoshopping the image. I don't dispute that. But if it is authentic, then I think it helps to further support our case here today. I just wanted to include it here for good measure and for obvious reasons.

Back to the task at hand. Go back and re-examine the photos of the burning Oil Rig again. Note the Helideck platform with a large sized hole in, and how it appears to be burned. Do a quick Google search on "Can Aluminum Helidecks burn?" and you'll discover that they DO NOT BURN!!! Many tests have been done on that very scenario.

Plus, the Helidecks are equipped with valves all around it that are designed to spray either water or foam should a fire occur on the platform, which should automatically spray at the first sign of trouble. I know that machines malfunction sometimes, but come on.

Some are suggesting it was hit with a Laser Beam, or some other weapon from space -- just like the World Trade Center towers. Considering what I found, and what has been presented here already, I'll admit that I tend to believe this until convinced otherwise.

Once again, the huge hole on the platform of the Oil Rig cannot be explained away with just the fire, or "blow out" as we've been sold. It had to have had either a missle or explosion that drove some massive huge piece of something through it that created that hole.

Check it out again. No fire around the platform. So what made that hole? It's huge too! On second thought, it's also "white" and not "blackened" like a missile or some other ordinance type of projectile would make it look. It's shape and size suggests something else; something previously unknown to us perhaps.

Salbuchi's approach, which was valid and smart, was to focus on the hole in the platform that he shows on one of the videos embedded above. If you look carefully, IT DID NOT HAVE A BLOW OUT FROM BELOW AS IT SHOULD HAVE IF IT WERE THE ACCIDENT WE HAD BEEN TOLD. RATHER THE RIDGES OF THE HOLE ITSELF WERE "PUSHED DOWNWARD" INTO THE PLATFORM. This should help...

Strange Hole On Oil Rig Platform The Result Of Scalar/Tesla Weapon!?!

So, how did that happen? What kind of weapon would do that? It would have to be a weapon from above and shooting downward, right? What kin d of weapon could leave such a clean, bright shiny ridge around the hole too? The kind of weapons we saw in the 9/11 videos above maybe?

Notice that it also appears to be not 1 beam, but the result of 2 beams based on its shape, and that is EXACTLY what we see in the video moments after the Oil Rig fire starts were 2 blue beams of light strike the platform about that same distance apart.

A brief aside for you "Symbolism Junkies" out there like me. One thing I found incredibly odd about the whole thing from the outset was how the whole crisis began by a "fire" that began on the 8-sided, Octagon-shaped Helideck platform on the Oil Rig.

Now, let's recall what we already know about the proponents of the New World Order and those actively serving Satan in this world (whether they realize it or not). They believe in the dark forces associated with certain dates, numbers, rituals, and...symbols.

The 8-sided Octagon is the only shape that fits inside an 8-pointed Octagram Star, which has straight arms. The "Octagram" is also known as the "Star of Isis" and is also the symbol of the Knights Templar. The Octagon is represented in the Vatican Staircase, illustrations of the Roman god Mercury, the 1934 Nazi rally medallion, the Ouija Board, and a traditional Stop Sign. Just do a quick Google search for the phrase ["octagon" AND "occult symbolism"] and you'll see what I mean.

We've spent a lot of time talking about 9/11 today. Fitting then that we should find it also connected with the Octagon rather blatantly.

The "Freedom Tower", which I submit as the most erroneously titled structure in history, is to be built on Ground Zero at the sight of the tragedy on 9/11. The laughably overt occult symbolism at play here astounds one as to the gall of these Luciferians.

The building is 1776 feet tall (Illuminati founding date for this nation) and will be finished in 2013 (it was originally expected to be finished in 2012 I'm told). Here's the "kicker" -- at it's center, the Freedom Tower is a giant Octagon! An Octagon is a Templar stargate symbol of the Dome of the Rock, and it will be built right over the grounds of the 9/11 sacrificial ritual space!

Are we seeing more of the bizarre ongoing occult practices of the fraternal organizations utilizing our public space without our consent to further their questionable divine aspirations? I believe that we are.

As the Wikipedia entry notes...

"At its middle, the tower forms a perfect octagon."

A relationship between Octagons and Stargates, huh? Where's Tom Horn? Seriously though, that's something we'll probably have to explore later on in another study some time. For now, I'll add one final comment by sharing this...

The Freedom Tower And The Octagonal Stargate

Of course, I don't agree with everything in the above video, but there's some there that I wanted to point out since it's obviously important to this study.

One final comment on the 9/11 angle. I'll defer to Mike Philbin who says it rather succinctly...

In all my amateur research into 9-11, two big dogpoos have risen to the top of the WORLD TRADE CENTRE DEMOLITION trifle:

1) 150 kilotonne nuclear bombs beneath the basement that vapourised WTC all at once,
2) internal air-borne thermobaric weapons that imploded the WTC, floor by floor,

You may be a supporter of one option or the other, there's a whole body of good evidence from either side. You might even be a supporter of the more exotic nano-thermite or directed energy weapon options. You might be a planer. You might be a no-planer.

...BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER.

The only important part of this equation isn't about guessing 'how' the THE WORLD TRADE CENTRE BUILDINGS one, two ... and seven were brought down aka DEMOLISHED. The real, in fact, only important aspect of the 9-11 story is that they were 'all demolished' in the middle of the day with 3,000 sacrificial victims in-situ by some sick organization intent on some sick corporate agenda.

Again, that doesn't really matter.

It's a really shadowy story/counter-story/espionage/infiltration/lie/truth message that You The People have been fed for the decade since the near-successful digital coup -- of course it is, there's hundreds of trillions of dodgy derivatives to MONETIZE out there in the La La Land of global finance.

We need to find who organised this financial collapse (and that's what 9-11 is, let there be no debate) and THEN THEY CAN FIGHT IT OUT AMONG THEMSELVES to betray and double back stab their corporate allies in the law courts desperate to exonerate their plea bargains to tell the world how they did it.

Making page one of the Wall Street Journal on May 11th 2004, American military geostrategist Dr Thomas Barnett described the attack on the World Trade Centre on September 11th 2001 as, "The first live-broadcast mass-snuff film in human history,"

Here's a recent interview with forensic economist David Hawkins on the THE WATERMAN FILES show to discuss the ramifications (and machinations) of that implication-laden statement. Thanks to Argusoog Radio in the Netherlands for making this interview available for download.

Just listen to it, then (if you're in the UK or USA legal profession) start looking into what can be done to either Hawkins or the 'RICO criminals' he's publicly accusing.

Basically, this is A DOUBLE EDGED SWORD for those Hawkins is accusing of perpetrating 9/11 and global subversion:

a) if Hawkins is (as some have suggested) a paid shill or disinformation agent then the relevant global corporations actually CAN'T AFFORD to take him to court because they lose their public leverage on the mass psyche,

b) if Hawkins is (as the Abel Danger group attest) an independent forensic economist who's targeting a corporate Saboteurs, Assassins and Deception network then it's doubly suspicious that Hawkins ISN'T taken to court.

So, what's it to be, people of Free Planet?

What's the real story here as far as the CORPORATE WAR MACHINE goes? Personally, I don't care either way AS LONG AS the truth actually comes out. That's what people want, isn't it?

THE TRUTH?

The truth will set you free, right? Absolutely.

Let's return our attention to the video of the blue beams hitting the Oil Rig. As the video clearly showed, the purple-blue beam was very clear, intense, and pronounced. What could have caused this anomaly? Why did all survivors of the disaster all tell the same story -- that the Rig’s ELECTRICITY and LIGHTING failed first, and well BEFORE the explosion occurred?

What massive pulse of energy would have the power to short-circuit the Deepwater Horizon’s sheath-protected Generators and thickly insulated Wiring built to withstand hurricanes and heavy winds, waves, and rain before any explosion occurred? How was it that the electricity failed BEFORE the explosion -- not vice versa -- according to ALL the eyewitness accounts? Was the purple-blue beam of intense light captured on video a high-tech Laser weapon designed to cause the pressurized pipe to super-heat, melt, burst and explode? If so, who would deploy such a dastardly device, and for what purpose or reason? DOES SUCH A WEAPON EVEN EXIST?

To answer those important questions, I need to read you Dr. Tru Ott’s commentary published back on June 4th, 2010. He wrote the following not only CONFIRMING the existence of such weapons, but that which seems to finger the likely culprit if we're correct in our charges here today (not sure if this was from Ott himself or the blog where I found his work referenced -- The Vatic Project -- a non-Christian, but informative database of compelling research)...

The simple answer to this question is yes, absolutely YES. Caledan ‘infrared chemical laser’, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (or DARPA) in conjunction with the Naval Research Laboratory (or NRL) not only has built such a satellite-based weapon, they deployed it years ago, both on the ground as well as on orbiting satellites. According to Wikipedia, MIRACL, or Mid-Infrared Advanced Chemical Laser, is the only known successful directed energy weapon developed by the US Navy. It is a deuterium fluoride laser, a type of chemical laser. The MIRACL laser first became operational in 1980. It can produce over a megawatt of output for up to 10 minutes, making it the most powerful continuous wave (CW) laser in the US. Its original goal was to be able to track and destroy anti-ship cruise missiles, but in later years it was used to test phenomenologies associated with national anti-ballistic and anti-satellite laser weapons. The beam size in the resonator is about 21 cm (8.3 in) high and 3 cm (1.2 in) wide. The beam is then reshaped to a 14 x 14 cm (5.5 in x 5.5 in) square and when directed and energized, then expands to a 5-foot wide beam of purplish-blue energy capable of melting even the hardest metal within seconds. CNN reported the successful test firing of the MIRACL laser back on October 20, 1997. The article explained that the laser was successfully deployed ON THE GROUND and correctly targeted a U.S. Air Force Satellite orbiting the earth. The article declares: ’MIRACL produces a beam of light six feet across using millions of watts from burning fuel. An extended beam of light from the laser would be capable of burning up a target. The satellite was illuminated twice for the test. The first firing lasted for less than a second to simulate an accidental illumination. The second firing lasted for about 10 seconds at various power levels.’ That longer illumination was designed to simulate an actual ground-based laser attack on a satellite and the effects on the satellite at various power levels. The MIRACL laser never went above 50 percent power during the course of the test, a military spokesman told CNN.’ There is no doubt that just as a communications satellite can beam radio and television signals around the world, a military satellite can focus a six-feet-wide MIRACL laser beam on a massive oil rig’s piping–causing it to explode and sink. This indeed appears to be what was captured on the videotape in question. WHAT POSSIBLE MOTIVATION? Most heinous crimes involving murder are done for increased monetary gain, and/or to solidify a power and influence base –especially in organized crime circles. Money and power are the oldest motives on the planet - and appear to be the case here as well. It is now proven that Wall Street robber baron, Goldman Sachs disposed of virtually all of their BP stocks just a few weeks before the disaster, while advising their upper echelon customers to do the same, or at least “shortsale” the stocks. This shows that Goldman Sachs either has a very good crystal ball at their disposal, or they have insider information. I find it deeply concerning that the 1966 “Report from Iron Mountain” actually gives the “Iluminati Blueprint" for the “New World Order”. One of the principle “tools” these crazed, sinister individuals would utilize is a militarized attack on the world’s environment. The report declares quote: “It may be, for instance, that gross pollution of the environment can eventually replace the possibility of mass destruction by nuclear weapons as the principal apparent threat to the survival of the species.” (A threat they would utilize to execute their agenda of control - Ott.) “Poisoning of the air, and of the principal sources of food and water supply, is already well advanced, and at first glance would seem promising in this respect; it constitutes a threat that can be dealt with only through social organization and political power. But from present indications it will be a generation to a generation and a half (30-50 years) before environmental pollution, however severe, will be sufficiently menacing, on a global scale, to offer a possible basis for a solution. It is true that the rate of pollution could be increased selectively for this purpose; in fact, the mere modifying of existing programs for the deterrence of pollution could speed up the process enough to make the threat credible much sooner.”(Page 51, Report from Iron Mountain.) Conclusion? Clearly, the technology to destroy a massive Oil Rig via a satellite directed energy weapon exists, and is squarely in the hands of the Illuminati world elitists’ “military/industrialist complex” to utilize as they alone see fit. Clearly, the socio-economic agenda of further crippling the U.S. and world economy by a massive POLLUTING EVENT of this magnitude would fulfill the agenda of the "Iron Mountain" report very succinctly. Rothschild and his bankers funded Adolph Hitler into power, and Hitler’s primary agenda was a “New Order” on the earth. What better way to further Hitler’s Rothschild-prescribed agenda than to have this event occur on the SAME DAY (April 20th) and even hour (10:00 pm) when Adolph Hitler was born? Moreover, the event would be caused by an occultic “MIRACL” -- a huge and powerful ILLUMINATING BEAM OF LIGHT from the heavens. I DOUBT THIS IS MERELY COINCIDENTAL!!!

That was what Dr. Tru Ott PhD wrote and published back on June 4th, 2010 according to that one blog I found. Can we really dismiss it at this point after everything else we’ve documented in this presentation and after we’ve clearly shown the SPIRITUAL ROOTS to this crisis?

Before you casually dismiss this as being insanely preposterous, I have a couple additional items I want to share with you first. On June 23rd, 2010, Space Daily reported that “Northrop Grumman Awarded Phase Two Fiber Laser Contracts With DARPA”. Notice it clearly says "phase two fiber laser" contracts with DARPA.

So, was the Laser beam that took out the Rig “Phase I”? Did they need to test it before proceeding to “Phase II”? I find the timing of this very, very interesting! Or, is it simply a different program and Laser since we certainly have more than one and one type? Then we find out from Dr. Ott that DARPA has other Lasers in their stock of available space weapons.

Where is this all going? Well, again, Dr. Ott references the same thing we're beginning to. Remember that interesting "project" from 1966 that was proposed, or just a few years after the public warnings from both Eisenhower and JFK.

Known as the "Report From Iron Mountain", it actually gives the Iluminati blueprint for their New World Order. One of the principle "tools" these crazed, sinister individuals would utilize is a -- get this -- militarized attack on the world’s environment! That was is in 1966 and look what we have here in 2010. That's some coincidence, huh? The report declares...

"It may be, for instance, that gross pollution of the environment can eventually replace the possibility of mass destruction by nuclear weapons as the principal apparent threat to the survival of the species."

This was back under President Lyndon Johnson and this is how they were talking back then in official government think-tank reports. Fascinating, isn't it? So, which is it? Is this a "hoax" as some say it is, or Exhibit A when it comes to "Predictive Programming" in this world? Personally, I believe we'll continue to see the veil of secrecy being lifted in the final moments of "normal" in this world as we run up to the start of the Tribulation perhaps as a fulfillment of the prophecy of Daniel 12:4.

They claim Iron Mountain is a hoax, but I don't think hoaxes work this well. History has been unfolding almost right in line with the Report. Is this more evidence that those pushing for a New World Order of the Ages are always actively looking for ways to advance their agenda in the real world? Is this more evidence that they are motivated by and serving a Luciferian, Satanic doctrine? Food for thought, but I believe the answer is wholeheartedly -- YES!

We better start asking tough questions and seriously demand answers from just about everyone from our Congressmen to Senators and the White House about the weapons technology we have, and to ensure it is NEVER used against us, the people. We have a right to know what weapons are in our arsenal, especially since they have begun using OUR TAX PAYER FUNDED WEAPONS AGAINST THE VERY TAXPAYERS WHO FUNDED THEM.

One more item needs to be mentioned here for good measure. Earlier, we asked: Does such a weapon even exist? Yes, they are many examples that some have pointed to. The one that Ott references is a good one. I have another. Remember NASA’s X-37B? What's the X-37B? It's the U.S. Air Force's X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle. Basically, it's an unknown vehicle, that has an unknown budget, and an unknown purpose. No red flags raised there, huh?

I must strongly urge you to just take a couple of minutes to read LUF's last report on NASA's X-37B from back in April, or the SAME MONTH that the Gulf Crisis began. If nothing else, the excerpts from one AP article (particularly the quotes from those associated with the mission/project) will knock your socks off!

At this point, I realize that despite all the painstaking research, all the hard evidence, some of you who are reading this will still doubt the truthfulness of any of this. That's ok. Like I said, there's enough evidence to prove that this is a classic conspiracy regardless of the perspective you take when beginning an investigation into things.

That being said, I also feel obligated to share a couple more items I found in my research. If you're not inclined to buy any of this even though it's all substantiated FACT, then I'll give you another example of how Big Business has colluded with Big Government and Big Military to weaponize space.

You won't believe this! This is about as close to a "smoking gun" as it gets I think. It's called "The Space Prevention Act" and it's evidence that the federal government may have quickly attempted to cover-up the use of such space-based weapons on 9/11.

The reason I offer such a suggestion has to do with the fact that it was a Bill introduced on October 2, 2001 -- OR LESS THAN 1 MONTH AFTER 9/11!!! You can read about H.R. 2977, The Space Prevention Act, here if you'd like.

Here's the stated purpose of such an unprecedented Bill...

"To preserve the cooperative, peaceful uses of space for the benefit of all humankind by permanently prohibiting the basing of weapons in space by the United States, and to require the President to take action to adopt and implement a world treaty banning space-based weapons."

I kid you not. That's what it says. Word for word. It also adds this...

"Congress reaffirms the policy expressed in section 102(a) of the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 (42 U.S.C. 2451(a)), stating that it `is the policy of the United States that activities in space should be devoted to peaceful purposes for the benefit of all mankind.'."

1958, huh? Man, what was it will the 1950s and 1960s? Why was that such a critical time in our nation's history? Eisenhower and JFK we're right!

Incredibly, that Bill actually defines "Chemtrails" as an "Exotic Weapons System" in support of our claims regarding another hotly contested subject, and that same section has the following listed (emphasis mine)...

Sec. 7 (Definitions) B. (ii)

(B) Such terms include exotic weapons systems such as--

(i) electronic, psychotronic, or information weapons;
(ii) chemtrails;
(iii) high altitude ultra low frequency weapons systems;
(iv) plasma, electromagnetic, sonic, or ultrasonic weapons;
(v) laser weapons systems;
(vi) strategic, theater, tactical, or extraterrestrial weapons; and
(vii) chemical, biological, environmental, climate, or tectonic weapons.

(C) The term `exotic weapons systems' includes weapons designed to damage space or natural ecosystems (such as the ionosphere and upper atmosphere) or climate, weather, and tectonic systems with the purpose of inducing damage or destruction upon a target population or region on earth or in space.

If your inclined to think that the US (or any government) has never put such weapons in space you need to seriously re-examine that thought. That's because we also read this in the Bill (emphasis mine)...

SEC. 3. PERMANENT BAN ON BASING OF WEAPONS IN SPACE.

The President shall--

(1) implement a permanent ban on space-based weapons of the United States and remove from space any existing space-based weapons of the United States; and

That Bill even mentions "Mind Control" too! Sadly, a revised (or "gutted") version was re-introduced just a few months later in January 2002. See if you can spot all the changes yourself. The fact of the matter is that the US government possesses MOST (if not all) of the technologies listed in that Bill, and they have been experimenting with them for a long time, without the public's knowing. This is just one of the many reasons people have to worry about the government gaining too much power over them and the media.

There is a ton of information out there if you just look. And yes, some people will think it's kooky "conspiracy theory", but anything is conspiracy theory to people that have been conditioned to believe that such things don't happen, or couldn't happen, especially when you don't hear about it in the news, see it on TV, or read about it in the paper.

Folks, how can we read the text of that Bill and still ignore the possibility of what's been proposed here today? How an we still ignore the truth? In the final analysis, I think we can conclude that this is FURTHER EVIDENCE that a genuine "conspiracy" did occur (is occurring) in the Gulf and that it's all merely a prelude to what the Bible tells us is coming.

Here's a secular news report from August 2009 that proves us much. However, it's a half-truth because we've just shown how this kind of weaponry has been around or decades. This news feature from just a few months ago only shows that it's now starting to become public knowledge as opposed to remaining in a shroud of secrecy.

Air Forces To Deter Space-Based Strikes On Russia

I guess we might also want to revisit the whole "Norway Spiral", "Canada Spiral", and "Australia Spiral" stuff again and ask if they're practice runs for using such space-based technology.

Just think about all of this in context with what we're told in the Book of Revelation...

Revelation 13:13 (KJV) And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

You know, come to think of it, I'm also reminded of a scene from the recent Star Trek motion picture re-make. This is another one for you "Synchro-Pop" junkies out there. Remember this...

Star Trek: Scene With Drill Platform

Now, how bizarre is it that in one of the year's biggest blockbusters (the same year that the film Knowing was released) we see a key "bad guy" weapon featured that eerily resembles EXACTLY what I'm proposing here today!?! Worse, this scene is known as the "Drill Platform Fight Scene" to most.

"Drill Platform" within the context of our study are you kidding me!?! I wish I was. If you think that's just some random coincidence think again and please read "Star Trek Overflowing With Symbolism" to learn more.

Anyway, no video clip of the weapon in action can be found online, but here's what I wrote in my review of the movie last year as well as a still image from the film that should help and that will most certainly resonate with the focus of our studies here today...

In a few scenes, Nero uses a weapon from his ship to rain a beam of fire down from the sky, which allowed him to drill a hole into the planet. The imagery immediately made me recall Revelation 13:13 that reads "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men." The Star Trek Wiki describes it as follows: "The drill platform was a part of the Romulan mining ship Narada that could be lowered into the atmosphere of a planet or planetoid for mining operations. Comprised of a high-energy pulse device that emitted a signal that disrupted subspace communications and transporters as well as a yellow colored high-intensity energy beam capable of burning through a planetary crust to reach the core. The drill itself was identified as a 'plasma drill' in the script."

All of that makes the Wired's column "Star Trek: A Military Analysis" cute and quite humorous given what we know about the military's cooperation with Hollywood over the last few decades.

You want one more movie tie-in that ups the gauge on the "Surreal Meter" a bit? All this focus on and the heightened attacks against Mel Gibson are strange. They're even more so when you consider that the plot for his 1997 film also starring Julia Roberts appropriately called Conspiracy Theory has to do with his main character's belief that NASA is trying to kill the President using a secret weapon on the Space Shuttle that can trigger earthquakes. Right on cue, this past Friday Washington DC experienced the first earthquake to hit that part of the country since they began keeping records. What timing, huh?

I'd be remiss if I didn't also reference the strange resemblance to the "apparitions" at the Knock Shrine that is celebrated by Catholics and Mary Worshippers worldwide.

In the final analysis, there seems to be a legitimate connection between what we saw on 9/11 and what we saw back in April in Gulf. Sure enough, right on cue, check out this video that's now making the rounds online...

September 11th And The Gulf Oil Spill

Some valid questions are raised in this video. Is it all merely coincidence or is God judging the United States of America for its sinfulness?

What a perfect way to perform a counterfeit miracle to deceive the masses using a MIRACL Laser! Could the recent surge of Sinkholes around the world be related to these Lasers being tested perhaps? Again, I'm just thinking out loud here.

Tell you what. I'll give you 3 more pieces of evidence to suggest that we're right to classify this a conspiracy whether we examine things from a purely secular perspective or a spiritual one.

Check out this video that appeared on PropheticSeer's YouTube channel recently. This is from a History Channel show called Mega Disasters on an episode called "Methane Explosion" that aired BEFORE the current Gulf Crisis! That's BEFORE it all began, or an episode that originally aired on October 9, 2007 -- almost 3 full years ago!

It also supports what we've all been saying for quite some time now about how this could get much worse in a heartbeat. For instance, one Scientist featured on that program says that a Methane Gas explosion (like we have the potential for in the Gulf) could produce Tsunamis that inundate coastal cities and lightning that ignites clouds of explosive gas.

Methane Explosion Mega Disaster In The Gulf

And then there was this news...

Keiser Report Teaser: Ecological Holocaust Cover-Up?

Fines and Felony charges for any journalist who tries to get closer than 60 feet of the crisis area so that they can report the truth? No, nothing suspicious about that. All this "conspiracy" talk is nonsense. Yeah right!

Lastly, did you see this news about how 1,500 BP cleanup workers are sick with a "mystery illness" and that those who do get sick have been told to report to BP's own medical facility set up on site as opposed to the public health facilities in the area? No, nothing unusual about that either. Please!

1500 BP Workers Are Sick!?!

Silly me! I forgot two more updates. More of the same I'm afraid.

EPA And BP Lie About Reducing Dispersants!

Surreal, isn't it?

The words from the Reporter in that last video about this being an "experiment" resonated with me in light of the infamous 1966 Report From Iron Mountain and what it indicated was "the plan" by those interested in establishing a New World Order.

If you ask me, it's like a holocaust down there! How is what they're doing right now any different from what the Nazis did to the Jews during World War II? It's not. The same kind of gross "experimentation" was conducted then as it is now. The only difference? We're not living in a concentration camp.

When will we decide we have had enough? When will people finally start to believe what we're telling them? I'm just asking.

This will help to sum up this whole sordid affair to this point...

The Gulf Crisis REALITY

We are finally going to find out what other Third World countries have gone through that we had no idea about, or that we outright ignored. The satanic bankers and globalists have done this in almost all the Third World countries and now it's our turn.

God is allowing it to happen as a form of His righteous judgment upon this nation for her unrepentant sins, and because it will ultimately lead to the fulfillment of the end times prophecies for all of humanity. Read the Book of Job.

The truth of the matter is that Satan's final days are here. He knows his time is short too. His minions are enjoying their satanic deeds against humanity, but it will only be for a season. Unfortunately, there will be more heinous acts perpetrated upon this nation and the rest of the world before the curtain closes on Satan. It's their "Order Out of Chaos", right? It climaxes with the Battle of Armageddon at the end of the Great Tribulation.

While we're merely in the beginning stages of those final 7 years (Daniel's 70th Week) we still have a responsibility to prepare ourselves, our families, and complete strangers spiritually as best we can with the Holy Spirit as our guide.

Psalm 2:2-3 (KJV) The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

They stand in complete opposition to us, and complete opposition to the Lord, and events like this generated crisis make it seem like they will get away with it all. But don't be dismayed. There is hope! More than you know!

John began the Book of Revelation with a very reassuring, strengthening, encouraging, hopeful word. Jesus Christ is "the ruler of kings on earth", which is pretty definitive, isn't it? This is what John means when he says that Jesus is "King of kings and Lord of Lords”.

When Jesus rose from the dead, God exalted him and gave him a "name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee might bow," and that includes all the rulers and kings of the earth. Jesus is alive today presiding from Heaven over you, over me, and over all the evil rulers of the earth.

Be encouraged, and be strengthened, and be hopeful, and be bold as you enter the turmoil and upheaval of the world especially in the days, weeks, and months ahead that promise to be ripe with political and social unrest. World War, Terrorist Attack, Government Tyranny, Depopulation, Oil Gushers, Mass Evacuation, Martial Law, the Internet Kill Switch, Global Famine, Immorality, Spiritual Warfare -- whatever does or doesn’t happen -- please keep in mind that despite all the chaos and uncertainty in this world, the Lord is still in complete and total control of it all.

That’s why we need to remind ourselves of one simple truth. We don’t know for sure what tomorrow holds for us, but we certainly know Who it is that holds tomorrow in the palm of His hand. We need to remember that trusting God means looking beyond what we can see in the headlines, or what we think we see, to trusting that God has already seen everything from now into eternity. We need to view things not from an earthly, emotional, physical perspective, but from a spiritual, sober, and eternal one.

We know how this story ends and what’s written on the last page of the Book that contains this story. Even if we’re missing a few pages so-to-speak that would help us fill in the blanks about the specifics along the way, we know enough to help us through the days, weeks, and months ahead. Just keep in mind that this could very well be a FINAL WARNING -- we just never know!

Finally, let me share something to try and emphasize the importance of taking these things seriously and under prayer to our Lord. It’s a clear a warning against rejecting wisdom, and it’s specifically for anyone who’s listening who STILL rejects the abundance of truth that was presented during this entire report.

This warning is found in the Book of Proverbs...

Proverbs 1:20-33 (KJV) Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares; at the head of the noisy streetsc she cries out, in the gateways of the city she makes her speech: "How long will you simple onesd love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge? If you had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you. But since you rejected me when I called and no one gave heed when I stretched out my hand, since you ignored all my advice and would not accept my rebuke, I in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you — when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you. Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me. Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD, since they would not accept my advice and spurned my rebuke, they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes. For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them; but whoever listens to me will live in safety
and be at ease, without fear of harm."

Luke 21:28 instructs us, "And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draws near."

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, if nothing else, I pray that this blog entry convinced you that these things are beginning to come to pass...so LOOK UP, AND LIFT UP YOUR HEADS, FOR YOUR REDEMPTION DRAWS NEAR!

Come quickly Lord!

Testing The Waters

2010-07-20T16:44:00.001-04:00

People still won't care.

People will read this story in the mainstream news and they'll still DENY any claims by us that the real story in the Gulf is much, much worse than is being reported.

Worse, they'll laugh it off as being "no big deal" and charge me with being paranoid. After all, no harm done, right? All they did was try to pass off a few fake pictures as originals in regards to the tragedy that's unfolding in the Gulf States.

Did you all see this today on the Yahoo! main page?

BP Caught Using Altered Image Of Command Center

Is a picture worth more or less than a thousand words if it's Photoshopped?

John Aravosis of AMERICAblog made an interesting find Monday night: A high-resolution image on BP's website of the troubled company's Houston-based Deepwater Horizon response command center had been altered.

The altered image was later removed by BP and replaced with what they say is the original.

The photo flap inspired the usually staid Washington Post to quip, "Apparently BP is no more adept at doctoring photos than it is at plugging deep-sea oil leaks."

BP spokesman Scott Dean told the Post's Steven Mufson that there was no diabolical plot to photographically beef up the company's command center. Rather, he said, a BP photographer with completely benign intentions just slipped the images in.

Right.

Just like they have "benign intentions" of dumping Corexit 9500 into the Gulf to help put an end to the crisis and to help the people down there.

Have a look at the evidence before I tell you any more about their "benign intentions"...

Beaker EXPLODES After Test Of Gulf Waters!

What's Corexit? That's the deadly Dispersant being dumped DAILY to try and stop the spread of the oil and push it deep underwater to the tune of 24,000 gallons per day.

Get this! The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) advised BP months ago (when they first started using it) AGAINST using it. Why? Well, for starters, it is 4 times MORE TOXIC than the oil itself, and the least effective of all the Dispersants on the market that could be used.

Worst of all? The use of Corexit is BANNED in the UK and other places too! So, if the same tragedy occurred there, then they couldn't use this highly toxic chemical, but our government sees no problem with letting them use it down there in the Gulf. Hmmm, I wonder why that is?

Sadly, this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the criminal actions perpetrated by the collusion of Big Business, Big Government, and Big Military in the Gulf Region for the past 3 months now.

For more evidence that proves that this is a genuine "conspiracy" according to the classic definition of the word, please spend some time reviewing these links...

Gulf Crisis Definitely A 'False Flag'

Please don't ignore these news reports any longer!

The investigative reporting from independent bloggers and local news stations and their Reporters like these are often far more reliable and unbiased than the ones you get from the corporate mainstream media because they're the people on the ground down there being affected the most by all of this.

Then, once you begin to see the truth, you have to ask yourself some tough questions. Many of them have to do with the "Why?" behind it all. You won't like what you discover -- at first. Ultimately, rest on the promises of God and fight any fear in response to this with faith:

Matthew 10:28 (KJV) Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

I pray the Lord opens your spiritual eyes and ears to the truth before it's too late.

The "Why?" behind all of this? That's easy.

Open up your Bible and start reading. It's all there.

Our Mission - Notable Quotable

2010-07-19T12:00:00.001-04:00

Besides preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, those of us who study end times Bible prophecy have another important job -- watching and warning about the things we see and shouting about them from the rooftops to anyone and everyone who will listen!

It's a thankless job most of the time, and one filled with rejection and ridicule, but we do it not for the praise of men, but for the glory, honor, and praise that goes to the Lord for our humble efforts the Holy Spirit leads us to carry out.

May this verse comfort and encouragement us to continue the fight for truth...

1 Corinthians 15:58 (KJV) Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Air France Is Something To Watch...

2010-07-18T14:57:00.001-04:00

I didn't want to put up any new posts today to give everyone some time to catch up a bit, but this deserves it's own mention as opposed to simply throwing it in the Comments Section somewhere...

Trouble For Brazil-Paris Flight For 4th Time...

SAO PAULO (AP) - Air France says a Rio de Janeiro to Paris flight has been canceled because of electronic problems. It is the fourth incident in eight days involving an Air France passenger jet from Brazil.

Air France spokeswoman Leticia Lyra says problems were detected on the before the flight was to leave for Paris Saturday with 170 passengers. It was rescheduled for Sunday night. She did not provide details.

On Thursday, Air France canceled a Sao Paulo to Paris flight because of damage in the aircraft's fuselage.

Two days earlier, an Air France Rio to Paris flight was forced to return to Brazil because of malfunctioning bathrooms. On July 10, a bomb threat forced a Paris-bound Air France jet bound to make an emergency landing in northeastern Brazil.

Why in the world did any of that catch my discerning eye? And how is any of that even relevant to any of our studies here in this forum? Because we've spent a lot of time on Air France in the past year believe it or not.

For the specific answers to those questions, and a POSSIBLE HARBINGER of what's to come during this 2010: The Year We Make Contact, I highly recommend re-visiting a handful of commentaries (some from this EXACT SAME TIME FRAME last year!) involving Air France and this VERY SAME FLIGHT PATH back in December 2009 that are DIRECTLY RELATED to this latest news...

Air France Again!?! Incroyable!

What's really going on? Something stinks.

After you read that piece (and keep reminding yourself that this keeps occurring along the SAME FLIGHT PATH and with supposedly some of the most state-of-the-art airliners too), please go back and re-read some of the things we SPECULATED about in last year's column...

Air France Tragedy = Full Disclosure?

Now, put that together with everything we've been hearing and seeing out of China lately too. Yes, we've now learned that it was most likely a missile test (some sort of experimental new military vehicle or weapon), or a long exposure photo of a traditional helicopter or plane.

What I keep coming back to though with these "Alien/ET/UFO" stories lately in the past few months is how...

(1) the mainstream media no longer mocks them like they once did as a knee-jerk reaction. In fact, just deciding to report on it as a "potential UFO" and as "news" speaks volumes to me about where we are on TPTB's timeline of advancing this sinister deception. They no longer just ignore stories like this like they used to.

(2) even when it is PROVEN that the images/videos are a legitimate hoax or trick of light and shadows (or that we've misinterpreted things), the "Predictive Programming" has already done it's job as millions were conditioned -- once more -- to accept the eventual announcement of the "existence" of so-called "Alien life" as a given, or as no big deal. They see the headline, see the images/video, see the story, but never get follow-up like this and so the "truth" has already been embedded in their mind.

Look, I know that no one wants to explore this subject (even though it's an extremely important one) with everything else that's going on in the world. However, newer visitors to LUF might not know this, but we've actually spent a ton of time over the course of the past 2 years exploring the so-called "Alien/UFO" phenomenon as being an entirely SPIRITUAL one.

Just type in some related keywords in the Search Bar to the right. Maybe this will help to at least give you a quick overview of why all Christians should be open to this kind of study and why I personally view it as an important end times topic for discussion...

IDE Thomas On Nephilim And Genesis 6

More Comments From IDE Thomas On Nephelim And Genesis 6

I hope that helps some especially if you're new to all of this.

Despite the hard, Biblical evidence people still refuse to accept the truth of the matter. I guess that's not too surprising (sad really) because many so-called Christians don't even take God's Word literally anymore. They don't believe in Satan or Hell much less Fallen Angels and Nephilim giants from Noah's day.

And yet, it was Jesus Himself who warned us that the end times would be just as in the days of Noah! This so-called "Alien/UFO" phenomenon, which is really spiritual since they're Fallen Angels and not "little green men from outer space", is the single and defining characteristic about that past time period to help us determine that we're right in the middle of those prophesied last days.

Ever wonder why many well-respected men and women (like former NASA Astronaut Edgar Mitchell of the Apollo 14 Lunar Mission and others) keep emerging with greater frequency on mainstream news programs like Fox News and CNN's Larry King Live asserting/admitting that "extraterrestrial life" exists (and that the government should just come clean) while seriously discussing the "Alien/UFO" question? Ever wonder how so many well respected (and mentally stable) men and women like business professionals, police officers, firemen, and military personnel can be wrong about their experiences with this phenomenon if there's nothing to it? Ever wonder why so many movies and TV shows depict this idea? You're not alone. Fortunately, there is an answer.

The problem is that no one wants to hear it because it has a religious component to it. They don't want someone like me coming along to point out to them the fact that we need to study what life and the world was like during the days of Noah because Jesus Christ Himself, when asked about what the end times would be like, said they would be EXACTLY as in the days of Noah.

Yes, there has always been disease, immorality, pestilence, and wars (although not at the level of frequency and intensity as we're seeing today!), but even if we throw all that out for the skeptics, then what is the one defining characteristic of that time (Noah's day) that we can look for today? The so-called "Alien/UFO" phenomenon!

Thus, common sense tells us we need to critically examine that time period as diligently as possible so that we can be prepared for what's to come. How many will heed the call?

Over the years, we've tried to do all we can to put the research from others out there so that you can not only prove such to yourself, but so that you won't fall for the lie once it's finally revealed to the world on a grand and paradigm-shifting scale (Matthew 24:24). It's about helping you learn how to properly discern the truth by relying on the Holy Spirit and the brain that God gave you (Proverbs 25:2; Ephesians 5:11).

Keep looking up! In the meantime, continually pray for wisdom and discernment and rely on the Holy Spirit to give it to you.

Right Now Radio - Politics And Prophecy

2010-07-18T10:32:00.003-04:00

We've been told that knowledge is power. Personally, I think that's wrong. No, it's applied knowledge, or what you do with the truth once you find it, that's power.

I pray that this is the kind of truth that motivates you to fall to your knees in genuine, humble repentance, seeking the Lord's face for forgiveness, mercy, and salvation, and the kind that will prompt you to get your spiritual house in order today.

Friday night (early Saturday morning) we spent a full 4 hours exploring the truth about what's really going on in this world during Right Now Radio's weekly broadcast. The show ran 2 hours longer than expected!

It was the first of what I pray will be a series of shows on the proper Biblical and Christian response to oppression and government tyranny especially with the prophesied persecution of Christians on the horizon.

I wanted to call attention to the program and the content that was shared because I believe we're only one "crisis" away from seeing such things enforced upon the citizens of this country. All they need is an excuse; a reason to pull the trigger so-to-speak. The Gulf Crisis isn't over so maybe that will be the catalyst here.

In any event, please take some time to listen and please share your comments...

The Economy, Immigration, Politics, And End Times Bible Prophecy - P1

In Part 1, we discussed the importance of viewing politics in this country from a Biblical/Christian perspective. We identified the tools that Satan employs when he uses politics as a vehicle to distract and deceive us. Specifically, we spent close to 2 hours discussing the Immigration reform debate and made some stunning observations about how it is clearly connected to end times Bible prophecy, but particularly the coming persecution of Christians and the coming Mark of the Beast system of total control. Near the end of these first 2 hours, we began discussing how it all connects to the establishment of a regionalized, trilateral government made up of Canada, Mexico, and the United States. Such a conglomerate has been termed the "North American Union (NAU)", and, contrary to popular opinion, it's not fiction as it was depicted in the UK's "Operation Blackjack" last year. In fact, some EU-style political body here in North America seems to be an essential component to the coming New World Order (a.k.a. the prophesied One World Government system), and I suggested that it needs to be in place BEFORE the fulfillment of the prophecies about the persecution of Christians.

The Economy, Immigration, Politics, And End Times Bible Prophecy - P2

I had no idea that it would take me a full 2 hours to just scratch the surface of this very important subject. So, we continued with another full 2 hours in an attempt to get this info out ASAP! In Part 2, we began by continuing with our expose on the North American Union (NAU) and demonstrated how completely in sync it is with the current Obama administration's stated plans for this country. From there, we transitioned to the shocking Executive Order signed by President Richard Nixon in 1972 that divided this nation into 10 administrative regions managed by 10 individuals (an EO signed only 3 years after the Government Reorganization Act divided the country into 10 regions in 1969!), and shared how this was all thanks to the CFR and the UN! As if that weren't enough to make your head spin, we documented the direct link of putting such a political framework in place to a 10-year, $25 million "project" that gave birth to what's called the Proposed Constitution For The New States of America. Incredibly, Nelson Rockefeller (does that name ring a bell in our studies?) lobbied for a Constitutional Convention (Con-Con) so that the new Constitution could be imposed upon this nation! We wrapped things up by examining some of the shocking things that are written in that Constitution For The New States of America -- things that clearly hint at what's to come for the Body of Christ should it ever become a political reality in this nation as desired (the fulfillment of end times Bible prophecy as it relates to the prophesied persecution of Christians!). Time is short. Keep looking up!

If you would like to view the articles and research that was used in producing this broadcast, then please spend a few minutes looking these over...

Immigration Debate

North American Union (NAU) / Security And Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) / The Amero / The Trans-Texas Corridor

America's 10 Kings

2nd Constitutional Convention (Con-Con) And Budget Crisis

News States Constitution

Please note that while those articles are, in some cases, almost 2 years old I made every attempt to provide the most up-to-date information during the program, but I don't have an post that you can access that contains that info. Sorry, but you'd have to listen to get that.

I hope that this is the type of show that gets Christians thinking and talking about what's on the horizon. None of what was shared during those 4-hours is fantasy. It's all FACT and all PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE. Why are we continuing to ignore what they've been telling us (and doing) in their own words for years?

Remember, we all feel as though we're on the cusp of the Tribulation and that we're far along God's prophetic timeline. All these threats that were discussed in this 4-hour broadcast indicate how we're just one crisis away from giving them every reason to implement these plans, which have been in the works for 40-50 years.

With everything that's going on in the Gulf Region, as well as the federal government's constant warnings about a terror attack being imminent, a crisis is coming. Will it be enough to allow them to put the political infrastructure they've created behind-the-scenes into place here in the real world? Will the Lord finally remove His hand of protection and allow them to be successful for a season?

Next time we'll stay with the theme of the coming persecution, but we'll begin to study what the Bible tells us about how to act as Christians in response to everything that's going on and to everything that's coming. Please stay tuned for that and please plan on engaging in the conversation so that we can support each other in the pursuit of truth.

In the meantime, rest on the promise found in Luke 21:28. MARANATHA!!!

Can I Live?

2010-07-17T10:00:00.002-04:00

Have you heard Nick Cannon's pro-life song or seen the video?

For those of us who believe Hollywood or the Hip-Hop/Rap culture can’t be changed, this video should give you hope. Artist and Host of America’s Got Talent, Nick Cannon, pleads for his life as his mother enters an abortion clinic.

This story is a TRUE STORY based on his own life! Their lives were changed forever that day and I pray that the Lord uses this song/video to lead the broken, confused, hurting, and lost to Him so that they can be changed forever as well.

Can I Live?

Let's rest on the truth of God's Word...

Job 31:15 (KJV) Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?

Psalm 71:6 (NIV) From birth I have relied on you; you brought me forth from my mother's womb. I will ever praise you.

Ecclesiastes 11:5 (NIV) As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.

Isaiah 44:2 (NIV) This is what the LORD says--he who made you, who formed you in the womb, and who will help you: Do not be afraid, O Jacob, my servant, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

Isaiah 44:24 (NIV) This is what the LORD says--your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself,

Jeremiah 1:5 (NIV) Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.

2 Peter 3:9 (NIV) The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

Now, for anyone who's reading this who had an abortion at one point in their life, the good news is that's Jesus Christ offers you genuine forgiveness for your sin as long as you come to Him in genuine repentance, with a contrite heart, seeking His forgiveness, mercy, and salvation.

Please take some time to visit these ministries and check out some of the resources they provide. In fact, you might even be able to speak to someone if you'd like:

Gulf Crisis Definitely A 'False Flag'

2010-07-17T03:30:00.003-04:00

People in political office aren't this incompetent.

The only explanation is that the Gulf Crisis is serving a larger agenda of theirs. In other words, it's a generated, manufactured crisis (score one for Joe Biden!) that we might also call a genuine "conspiracy", or a "False Flag" event.

Whether your a Christian or a non-believer, there's enough evidence on both sides of the aisle to convict Big Business, Big Government, and Big Military of working together to carry this out.

If you don't think that factions of those we entrust to serve and protect us within both the federal government and the military are capable of such things -- think again.

Here's what The New York Times reported today that proves that the NSA falsified intercepted communications in the Gulf of Tonkin incident that led to our involvement in the Vietnam War...

In an echo of the debates over the discredited intelligence that helped make the case for the war in Iraq, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday released more than 1,100 pages of previously classified Vietnam-era transcripts that show senators of the time sharply questioning whether they had been deceived by the White House and the Pentagon over the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident.

“If this country has been misled, if this committee, this Congress, has been misled by pretext into a war in which thousands of young men have died, and many more thousands have been crippled for life, and out of which their country has lost prestige, moral position in the world, the consequences are very great,” Senator Albert Gore Sr. of Tennessee, the father of the future vice president, said in March 1968 in a closed session of the Foreign Relations Committee.

…

Robert J. Hanyok, a retired National Security Agency historian, said Wednesday in an interview that “there were doubts, but nobody wanted to follow up on the doubts,” perhaps because “they felt they’d gone too far down the road.”

Mr. Hanyok concluded in 2001 that N.S.A. officers had deliberately falsified intercepted communications in the incident to make it look like the attack on Aug. 4, 1964, had occurred, although he said they acted not out of political motives but to cover up earlier errors.

Many historians say that President Johnson might have found reason to escalate military action against North Vietnam even without the Tonkin Gulf crisis, and that he apparently had his own doubts. Historians note that a few days after the supposed attack he told George W. Ball, the under secretary of state, “Hell, those dumb, stupid sailors were just shooting at flying fish!”

Ok, so what's next? Well, they will attempt to use this crisis to their full advantage (score one for Rahm Emmanuel!). Whatever real world spin you want to put on it will still be inaccurate. This is a spiritual event, with spiritual forces involved, leading to spiritual consequences!

Gulf Oil Spill: A Timeline Of Obama's Failed Leadership

By the way, this video is banned on Facebook. No surprise there.

Of course, none of this should come as a surprise to us. I mean, what else did we learn recently?

Bombshell: Media Mogul Helped Write Obama's Speech!

The fact that President Barack Obama is nothing more than a corporate sock puppet, a completely hollow vassal being used and manipulated by his globalist controllers to carry out their agenda, has once again been emphasized with the revelation that corporate media mogul (and Bilderberg luminary) Mortimer Zuckerman wrote one of Obama’s political speeches!

Zuckerman told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto yesterday...

"Well I voted for Obama, I helped write one of his speeches..."

Asked which speech he helped write, Zuckerman responded...

"I’d rather not go into that."

Is it clear to you yet?

The "Age of Deception" indeed.

A hallmark of the prophesied end times.

Immigration Connection To End Times? Connection To Mark Of The Beast? Connection To Gulf Crisis? Political Crises Brewing?

2010-07-16T23:00:00.004-04:00

NOTE: The content of this post is merely 1 segment out of 3 that together make up the July 16th, 2010 broadcast of Right Now Radio titled "Economy, Immigration, Politics, And End Times Bible Prophecy". I strongly urge you to download the MP3 file and listen to it when you can because chances are we'll be seeing a lot of what was discussed manifest itself here in the real world in the very near future. Knowledge is not power. It's applied knowledge that is power, or what you do with the truth once the Lord leads you to it. God bless you and yours, and thank you for your continued prayers and support!

Does anyone else feel as though we're reaching critical mass?

I get the sense that there MIGHT BE some kind of politically motivated "event" of epic proportions that will take place here in this country soon. Of course, given what I believe about the nature of politics (that it's one of the most effective tools used by Satan to deceive and distract the masses with "political theater" and a so-called "Two Party System" where both sides are just two sides to the same corrupt coin) the label such an event will be given will also be carefully calculated to help advance their sinister agenda. You can count on it.

As many of you know, I often post MY OPINIONS and SPECULATIONS after making educated guesses about the data we have about various subjects. There's no special wisdom here. No "Thus sayeth the Lord..." pronouncement. However, I try to ALWAYS prayerfully consider such conclusions only after sifting all of the information from a Biblical perspective and through the prism of prophecy.

Admittedly, this entry falls into that category, which is to say that these are MY OPINIONS ABOUT WHAT I BELIEVE COULD HAPPEN TO HELP LEAD TO THE FULFILLMENT OF SPECIFIC END TIMES PROPHECIES FOUND IN THE BIBLE.

So, even though a majority of what will be presented here is OPINION and SPECULATION, that's not to say that there won't be any sound Biblical doctrine included here either. Simply put, I just want to share a few things I'm noticing about a few topics that everyone's talking about these days.

As Christians, we’re about the Gospel. The culture doesn’t dictate truth -- the Gospel does! My job is not to be a political pundit, or political activist. My job is to be a Christian, and to proclaim the truth of the Gospel as clearly as I possibly can.

That being said, today I want to call our attention to something that is sure to be a controversial subject especially with many of my quote-unquote "conservative" and "Christian" colleagues, family members, and friends.

Where is all of this coming from? What am I getting at? For starters, even those this commentary will deal with politics, we need to view it all within the context of the end times. Most importantly, we should read the Book of Acts for some valuable spiritual insight into our present day position. Ok, but what is it that has caught my attention today and that has me so wound up? Good question.

A couple of days ago, all we heard and saw in the mainstream news was about how the Obama administration has sunk to "new lows" in the polls and how the only thing that can save Obama is a "crisis" akin to 9/11 or something of that magnitude. Remember, President Bush was down in the polls too just before 9/11.

In recent weeks, we brought you the stunning comments by Retired General Paul E. Vallely who was beginning a movement to demand that President Obama and his administration resign. Yesterday, Judge Andrew Napolitano renewed a call for the indictment of Bush and Cheney. Let's not forget what Napolitano said about 9/11 back in May when he appeared as a Guest on Future Quake. There's more though!

Now, it's the NAACP against the Tea Party. With racial tensions flaring and fuel being added to the fire by this administration -- most notably by the First Lady Michelle Obama -- we can look back on various predictions from a couple of years ago about a Second Civil War, or a Race War, as being not so ridiculous anymore.

Even so, I want to focus on another area that got a lot of attention this past week. I'm sure you've all seen how the Immigration debate has been dominating the news cycle especially both yesterday and today.

Whenever this subject comes up in Christian circles, I'm reminded of how this issue has been carefully camouflaged by Satan to condition the US population to the prophesied persecution of the saints.

What do I mean? Let's go to the source...

Daniel 7:21 (KJV) I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;

Revelation 13:7 (KJV) And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

Revelation 20:4-6 (KJV) And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Those are just a few select passages from the Bible that mention to coming persecution.

Now, think about all those protesters you see holding signs that say something to the effect of "Illegal Is Illegal" or "Illegal Is Breaking The Law". Do any of you look at those protesters and fast forward in your mind to those days when we'll be persecuted for our Christian faith because such beliefs will be deemed "illegal" in this country and in this world? Because that's precisely what my mind did at the sight of those kinds of images.

Look, I'm not saying that laws and a legal process shouldn't be in place to deal with the Immigration issue. I believe that there should be law and order. That's not what this piece is about and if that's all you're getting from this so far, then you're either not reading carefully and closely paying attention, or your spiritual eyes and ears aren't open and picking up what I'm putting down.

I mean for us to view politics not from an earthly, emotional, physical perspective, but from an eternal, spiritual, and sober perspective. We must not allow Satan to use our passion and patriotism against us -- or against each other for that matter.

They say "God, Country, Family", right? Three traditional virtues. Over the centuries, God, country, and family have probably been the most important social units governing the strength of a society. They provide feelings of cohesion and a sense of belonging. It makes perfect sense that Satan would attempt to corrupt us and those social units.

Still, I mean to get us to focus on the SPIRITUAL ROOTS of any political issue and want to put a special emphasis on Immigration tonight. Why? Because it is my belief that if we view it within the proper context of the "Big Picture" and look for the spiritual roots involved here, then we will surely see the SEEDS OF HATE that are being planted right now.

You reap what you sow, right? Galatians 6:8 tells us that. That's what this is about. I see this whole current debate on Immigration as being CRUCIAL to laying the groundwork for the religious persecution that's coming. Crucial.

Sure, I could be wrong about that, but I'm not so sure. Here's what I wrote when I took a similar stance back at the start of June...

Are Some Christians Hypocrites?

We've explored the danger that the so-called "Tea Party Movement" poses to us Christians. So many Christians are adopting it as "their" chance to be heard in Washington DC, and that's cause for concern.

We've even explored the spiritual implications of Christians embracing politicians like Sarah Palin for President in the Right Now Radio broadcast "Why Are Christians Embracing Sarah Palin When They Shouldn't Be?", and concluded that the Bible has some pretty poignant things to say about women as national leaders.

Today, I just came across the following political cartoon and thought it was spot on:

Doesn't that just say it all? The irony is that many Christians are championing the VERY SAME PRACTICE that will be used against them one day soon during the prophesied persecution of the Saints!

Look, I support the current laws in Arizona (in any state for that matter) regarding illegal immigration. There should be a formal, legal method for foreigners who wish to enter this (or any other) country just like our ancestors had to follow. It's just common sense and a simple way for a government to fulfill its mandate of protecting its people. However, the above cartoon speaks volumes I think, and it taps into the real irony involved (and danger) in all of this I think.

It's why I've been banging the drum the past few months about how Democrats-Republicans, Liberals-Conservatives, Left-Right -- it doesn't really matter which side of the aisle you're on -- because these days they're simply two sides to the same coin, and they both want the same thing (they just disagree on the method of achieving those goals).

More importantly, we need to take a step back and look at the BIG PICTURE here using the Bible and the prism of prophecy as our filter. Satan wants nothing more than to distract us with such sophisticated theater like politics. Whether it's domestic or foreign politics is immaterial because he only seeks to inflame passions and prey on people's emotions regarding a particular subject. Once he has us focused on the earthly, emotional, physical realm of things, then he has us right where he wants us -- completely distracted from what really matters and completely detached from our Lord and Savior.

We need to view things from an eternal and a spiritual perspective at all times, and not allow ourselves to get so caught up in the fiery emotions of a debate. Why? Well, not only is that what Satan wants, but also what his loyal minions want as well. Think about it! Those who are constantly striving to establish their New World Order (a.k.a. the prophesied One World Government) believe that they'll be successful in their pursuit by generating "Order Out of Chaos". Order out of what? Chaos!

So, it stands to reason that they will foment chaos, destabilization, political unrest, racial tensions, and social controversy all in an effort to create as much CHAOS as they possibly can in the hopes that it will trigger death and destruction, right? Of course it does.

The only other comment I want to make is how the secular, non-believing world can see what's wrong with contemporary Christianity. Why can't we see it ourselves? Reminds me of the Pharisees, the ultimate hypocrites, in Jesus' day and what we learn from His comments to them.

For more on the Pharisees and Biblical instructions on how all Christians can gauge their spiritual health please listen to the 60-minute study "Am I A Pharisee?".

Are some Christians hypocrites? Well, you already know what I think.

For anyone who thinks I've "lost it" because I'm connecting the Immigration debate with end times Bible prophecy -- think again!

We reported back in April how the current administration was asking quite publicly: Could a National Identity Card help resolve the heated Immigration-reform divide? Some in power believe that it could...

Biometric National ID Card Is Coming

Could a national identity card help resolve the heated immigration-reform divide?

Two Senators, New York Democrat Chuck Schumer and South Carolina Republican Lindsey Graham, certainly seem to think so. They recently presented an immigration-bill blueprint to President Barack Obama that includes a proposal to issue a biometric ID card — one that would contain physical data such as fingerprints or retinal scans — to all working Americans.

The "enhanced Social Security card" is being touted as a way to curb illegal immigration by giving employers the power to quickly and accurately determine who is eligible to work. "If you say [illegal immigrants] can't get a job when they come here, you'll stop it," Schumer told the Wall Street Journal. Proponents also hope legal hiring will be easier for employers if there's a single go-to document instead of the 26 that new employees can currently use to show they're authorized to work.

Prelude to, or the prophesied Mark of the Beast anyone? All courtesy of this sophisticated political theater too. Sickening!

What's that? You still think it's absurd of me to try and link the economy, immigration, and politics with Bible prophecy and mainly the coming persecution of Christians? Really?

I want to share something else with you that I found yesterday that was reported by The Family Research Council in one of their newsletters.

Have you heard of the case involving Pastor Ron Baity? When the North Carolina legislature asked Ron Baity to serve as a guest Chaplain at the state house, the Pastor of Berean Baptist Church said it was an honor. What he didn't know was how short-lived that honor would be!

During the last week of May, when Pastor Baity was scheduled to open the session in prayer, a House Clerk asked to first review the text. When she noticed the last line, she said...

"We would prefer that you not use the name of Jesus. We have some people here that can be offended."

But it was Pastor Baity who was most offended. When the Clerk raised the issue with House Speaker Joe Hackney, Pastor Baity said plainly...

"My faith requires that I pray in His name. The Bible is very clear."

Amen! See, that's living out a bold, courageous Christian faith in these spiritually dark times! It's exactly the type of thing we'll explore in greater depth on the next RNR "Special Report". In the end, Hackney decided that the Pastor could offer his prayer -- but that it would be his last one. After that, Baity's services would "no longer be needed".

A stunned Baity told Fox News Radio...

"When the state tells you how to pray, that you cannot use the name of Jesus -- that's mandating a state religion. They talk about not offending other people but at the same time, if they are telling me how to pray -- that's the very thing our forefathers left England for."

So, when The-Powers-That-Be in the North Carolina State House told him that he wouldn't be allowed to finish the week as Chaplain because he was praying a "sectarian" prayer, he knew better. Do we though?

Sadly, there are those within the Body of Christ who are being seduced by the thought that we can change this nation, and they are salivating over the thought that while voters may not be able to choose a new President this Fall, they can put their states under new management. That's because a whopping 37 Governors' mansions are up for grabs in what experts are calling the most important election cycle in a generation. Yeah, that's if we even have an election cycle this Fall!

But even if we do, how is it that so many so-called Christians believe they can effect change and change God's mind about what is clearly stated in the Bible in regards to the prophecies for the last days? Earlier, I referenced a LUF column titled "Are Some Christians Hypocrites?" and attempted to answer that question by focusing on the views held by many Christians about Immigration. I'd like to answer that question in a more general sense.

How can you say you believe that we're living in the prophesied end times, and then turn around and do and say things that are more consistent with the belief that we can somehow change God's plans for humanity? Those two mindsets are diametrically opposed to one another, aren't they? Of course they are!

I suggest you take some time to listen to the RNR Aftershocks Report "Happy 4th of July?" because it deals explicitly with the relationship between Nationalism, Politics, and the current state of Christianity especially here in America today.

Furthermore, in the most beautiful and mysterious example of "spiritual convergence" you can imagine my surprise when I came across a commentary that was just emailed to me from Dr. David R. Reagan's Lamb & Lion Ministries of which Reagan is the Founder and Director. Here's what he wrote in his Lamplighter Magazine this month...

Is This The End Of The American Experiment?

As I view the future of our nation today, I must admit that I have ambivalent feelings. I am extremely sad, and yet I am full of joyful expectation.

I feel a deep sense of sadness as I see the Great American Experiment in representative government come to an end. We have been abundantly blessed by God ever since our forefathers arrived on this continent, and we have served as a channel of His blessings to other nations, both as a proclaimer of the Gospel and as a champion of human rights.

Keys To Our Success

One of the secrets to our great success was our commitment to the Judeo-Christian principles revealed in God's Word. Those principles served as the basis of our systems of government, education, and economics.

An even greater reason for our phenomenal success was our commitment to the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our forefathers came to this continent in search of freedom to proclaim the Gospel. Our nation was established as a Christian nation. Our relationships were governed by Christian principles. Our laws were based upon God's commandments. The Church, whether Catholic or Protestant, provided us with our reason for being.

Our Track Record

We were far from perfect. We struggled with difficult issues like race relations, women's rights, and the balance between labor and management. But our hearts were in the right place because of the Christian principles which propelled us in the right direction. We steadily made progress in all these difficult areas, and many others.

Throughout the centuries as we sought to evangelize the American continent, we also sent missionaries to the uttermost parts of the earth.

In the first half of the 20th Century, we soared to great heights as we came to the world's rescue in two world wars. In both cases, we entered these international conflicts for selfless purposes — not to gain territory but to "make the world safe for democracy."

Our Stumbling Point

But at the height of our glory and power, following our victory in World War II, we began to turn our back on God. We took our eyes off the One who had blessed us so abundantly and began to focus on ourselves. We gave our hearts to materialism.

In the process, we began to divorce God from our lives — kicking Him out of our schools and separating Him from our government processes. The secularization of our society became our passion, and the result was increasing paganism in every aspect of life.

Our Persistent Rebellion

We have mocked God. We have given our hearts to idols. We have forgotten the source of our blessings. We have turned a deaf ear to the prophetic voices God has raised up to call us to repentance. We have ignored the remedial judgments He has placed upon us, writing them off to coincidence.

We must now face the consequences of our rebellion. God has stepped back and lowered our hedge of protection. He is allowing evil to multiply. Greed is destroying our economy. Incivility is ripping apart our social structure.

Money has become our god.

Belief in Man has become our religion.

The pursuit of pleasure has become our lifestyle.

And the payoff is nihilism. We are wallowing in despair.

We are destined for destruction. But even as I witness the disintegration of all that I hold dear, my heart is full of joyful expectation because the signs of the times are literally shouting that all of history is about to arrive at its consummation with the return of Jesus.

A Biblical Reminder

My mixed feelings remind me of Jeremiah after his beloved city and temple had been destroyed by the Babylonians and his nation had been taken into captivity. He wrote a funeral lament called Lamentations in which he vented the agony of his heart. But right in the middle of it, in a great act of faith, he suddenly paused and made one of the most hopeful declarations to be found in all of God's Word (Lamentations 3:21-24):

"This I recall to mind,
Therefore, I have hope.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
His mercies never come to an end;
They are new every morning.
Great is Thy faithfulness.
"The Lord is my portion," says my soul;
Therefore I will hope in Him." (RSV)

Just like Jeremiah, even as I witness all I love being destroyed around me, I can look to the future with great hope and joyful expectation because of the marvelous promises concerning the future that are contained in God's Prophetic Word.

Some Certainties

Based on those promises, I know with absolute certainty:

That Jesus is returning soon; That He will defeat all the enemies of God; That He will establish a worldwide reign that will bring peace, righteousness, and justice to all the nations; And that all of us who are believers will be given the incredible blessing of ruling with Him.

I can hardly wait. All that is within me yearns for the glorious day very soon when Jesus will break from the heavens.

The New World On The Horizon

The corrupt world system that currently dominates this globe is destined to be destroyed. A new world is coming where there will be no homeless, no poor, and no hungry. Justice will prevail. Fairness and equity will abound.

The nations of that world will be committed to the Lord, and the blessings of the Lord will cover the earth as the waters cover the seas.

It is no wonder that the Apostle Paul wrote: "I consider the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us" (Romans 8:18).

In the dark days that lie ahead, let us keep in mind that God is on His throne, He still hears prayers, He still answers prayers, and He has the wisdom and power to orchestrate all the evil of Satan and Man to the triumph of Jesus. Keep in mind also that:

"No eye has seen, No ear has heard, Nor has the mind of Man conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him." (1 Corinthians 2:9)

But God has revealed those things to us in His Word. Cling to those revelations in the days ahead. Cling to His glorious promises, and you will be sustained.

"Oh Lord, our Lord, How majestic is your Name in all the earth!" (Psalm 8:1)

Needless to say, that's why the latest big political headline left such an impression on me yesterday morning. It goes hand-in-hand with everything we're studying here. The story that is gaining traction?

Brief For 9 States Backs Arizona Immigration Law

DETROIT – States have the authority to enforce immigration laws and protect their borders, Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox said Wednesday in a legal brief on behalf of nine states supporting Arizona's immigration law.

Cox, one of five Republicans running for Michigan governor, said Michigan is the lead state backing Arizona in federal court and is joined by Alabama, Florida, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas and Virginia, as well as the Northern Mariana Islands.

The Arizona law, set to take effect July 29, directs officers to question people about their immigration status during the enforcement of other laws such as traffic stops and if there's a reasonable suspicion they're in the U.S. illegally.

President Barack Obama's administration recently filed suit in federal court to block it, arguing immigration is a federal issue. The law's backers say Congress isn't doing anything meaningful about illegal immigration, so it's the state's duty to step up.

"Arizona, Michigan and every other state have the authority to enforce immigration laws, and it is appalling to see President Obama use taxpayer dollars to stop a state's efforts to protect its own borders," Cox said in a statement.

Arizona's Republican Gov. Jan Brewer, in a statement released by Cox's office, said she was thankful for the support.

In a telephone interview, Cox said the nine states supporting Arizona represents "a lot of states," considering it was only Monday that he asked other state attorneys general to join him. The brief was filed in U.S. District Court in Arizona on the same day as the deadline for such filings.

Forgive me, but I read that news item and when I got to the part about the states that are involved -- Arizona, Michigan, Alabama, Florida, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas and Virginia, as well as the Northern Mariana Islands -- it's hard for me to not consider the possibility that what's going on right now in the Gulf (including what The-Powers-That-Be are planning) is the perfect "payback" or "revenge" against those states that join forces to fight the federal government on this issue.

It's just funny how 3 -- possibly 4 -- of the 9 states involved in this are those directly affected by the current Gulf Crisis right now or in the immediate aftermath of any kind of tipping point event. I'm just thinking out loud here.

Plus, the Prophecies, Conspiracies, And Endtimes Stuff blog reports...

It looks like the people in the Gulf region are't dying off fast enough. Now, Dengue Fever is breaking out in Key West, FL. Dengue Fever affects tropical areas such as Belize, Brazil, Cuba, Australia, Cambodia, and such places. Acording to an ABC News/Reuters report, "Dengue is the most common virus transmitted by mosquitoes, infecting 50 million to 100 million people every year and killing 25,000 of them. It can cause classic flu-like symptoms but can also take on a hemorrhagic form that causes internal and external bleeding and sudden death. Companies are working on a vaccine but there is not any effective drug to treat it.

Dengue was eradicated in the United States in the 1940s but a few locally acquired U.S. cases have been confirmed along the Texas-Mexico border since the 1980s. More cases have been reported recently in Mexico and the Caribbean." The only problem is there hasn't been an outbreak of Dengue Fever in FL for 75 years. So how did it get there? None of those infected had been outside America, so how did it get there?

Another good question, huh?

Don't laugh! In the 2-part, 6.5-hour RNR Special Report titled "Anatomy Of A Conspiracy: BP, Government, Military Collusion Created A Crisis In The Gulf" we highlighted the FACT that while there were SEVERAL legitimate reasons to explain the "why" behind all of this there's one in particular that reminds us of how a majority of those deemed "domestic, homegrown, right-wing terrorists" (thanks in large part to the MIAC Report as well as The Department of Homeland Security) reside in the very same region that's being impacted by this unprecedented crisis. Food for thought in light of today's news for sure I think.

Folks, is this a good time to remind you all of our "Is A False Flag Event Imminent?" broadcast on Right Now Radio from back on June 10th? I believe that it is.

Again, don't laugh! Local, state, and federal agencies have converged on central Kansas for a DOMESTIC TERRORISM EXERCISE! An 8-day training exercise is under way in central Kansas, testing the responses of local, state, and federal emergency officials to an act of DOMESTIC TERRORISM.

National Guard units from Kansas and Nebraska are taking part in the exercise, which began Sunday and runs through July 18th, 2010. The goal is to test civilian and government agencies in how well they respond to a terrorist act.

Do I need to remind you of the fictional town called "Jericho" that was located in Kansas in the popular apocalyptic CBS drama from a few years back of the same name?

Jericho Teaser Trailer

Here's the most glaring admission from the authorities that you and I will be their targets in the near future just like the Bible says. In describing the exercise for Reporters, Lt. Col. Greg Platt, Operations Officer at "Crisis City", had this to say...

"The President of the United States was going to visit this site. But, we have some ne’er-do-wells that don’t like the government, don’t like health care, don’t like what we are doing with financial regulation and immigration, decided to do something about the President’s visit."

Folks, they're actively training with people like YOU in the crosshairs! It's only a matter of time before the drills and exercises go LIVE.

Platt went on to say that the fictional scenario had a member of the group of "ne’er-do-wells" take explosives from an army base in Missouri and had him blow up a train at 7AM, injuring people and setting off secondary explosions. Because that's generally what law-abiding citizens like you and me do all the time.

Lastly, a little something for you "Symbolism Junkies" out there. How ironic is it to learn that in the very state where this whole Immigration Reform debate began is the city of Phoenix!?! The Phoenix, of course, is one of those New World Order symbols that we're all familiar with, right? A symbol of "rebirth" and/or "resurrection" rising up out of the fiery ashes almost like a fulfillment of an "Order Out of Chaos" belief system I'd say. In other words, we know why it's a significant symbol to our common enemy and those loyal to him, and why all of this is taking place in that specific region of the United States.

Even secularists agree that this is an issue that threatens to be a watershed moment, a paradigm-shifting event if you will, for this entire nation based on the outcome. Something for us to think about for sure.

Folks, you'd have to be blind, intellectually dishonest, and/or willfully ignorant to come face-to-face with this kind of information and then still deny that the Bible prophecies about the coming persecution and the connection between prophecy and immigration (amongst other political hot button issues) isn't valid. It's time to stop burying your head in the sand!

In the end, remember to fight any fear with with. Also, I found on reader's comments on a previous post to be appropriate to this discussion...

Overcomers rise above. We are in the world but not of the world. The weapons we fight with are not carnal; they have power to bring down strong holds. Whatever happens to you is going to happen to you no matter what you do/do not do. Fighting the NWO is the least of our concerns. Walking in total obedience to the voice of the HOLY SPIRIT is. BTW, the NWO order is not new! Our perspective is off. We should not be gearing up for what the NWO is going to do or what it will be or look like. We should be storing up on the oil of the Word through the Holy Spirit, for HE said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you". You must realize (and soon) there will be pain but with JESUS there will be peace. Pain yes, terror no. Perfect love casts out all fear. But lets not project into the future too much: what about now? Anyone suffering now? Do you have pain and peace? Are you in agonizing prayer, yet have peace that passes all understanding knowing in the depth of your soul the HE loves you and knows you and that you are HIS? What about now? Is there anything that you are holding onto that you are unwilling to let go of? Have you made peace with those around you that you love them, but you will not forsake your first LOVE for them? (They may hate you for denying them, for essentially giving them over to be destroyed). No. We do not need to stock up on beans or toilet paper. It is time (really, really time now!!!) to get your house in order. Forgive. Be forgiven. Love. Let go. Trust the LORD. If you have kids, pour into them; let them know you love them, but that you are going to die for JESUS (whatever that ends up looking like-real death, dying to yourself, dreams, ideals, wants). Settle in your house, Whom you will serve today, not in the near future. GOD bless those who have ears to hear. Dee

Ladies and Gentlemen, I find the convergence of various news items lately quite telling. It might turn out to be nothing more than me making a fuss over nothing. Good! I pray that's the case. But if we are on to something here, then is behooves us all to get our spiritual house in order ASAP! More importantly, those of you who are reading this as non-believers (or fence-sitters for that matter) need to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior RIGHT NOW!

It's becoming a trademark phrase with me these days, but I have to say it again -- What are the odds of all this, right?

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if I'm "right" or "wrong" about all of this. I engage in these types of discussions and studies because I already know that God has intervened in my life -- on more than one occasion -- in very real and personal ways, defying all expectation and logic.

Given that fact, and given the fact that I have an intense interest in end times Bible prophecy (so that I can demonstrate to people how time is short and they need to accept Jesus Christ today before it's too late), I'm constantly fascinated by these sorts of unexplained connections.

The only thing that matters, however, is your current relationship with Jesus. Humble yourself! Recognize that you are a sinner! Repent! Seek the Lord's face! Pray for the blood of Jesus Christ to wash over you and yours, and for it to protect you, and that you are counted worthy to escape the things to come because it's certainly coming, and it's coming fast!

The clock is ticking people. One of these days we're going to be in the thick of the start of the prophesied Tribulation, and you won't want to wait until then to start thinking about God and including him in your life.

You know, this whole entire presentation began for me when the Holy Spirit led me to consider the spiritual and prophetic implications of the whole Immigration debate mainly after seeing yesterday morning's news about 9 different states joining forces against the federal government on this issue.

I didn't notice this until just now, but I think we have confirmation that perhaps we're definitely on to something here and that there's a spiritual root at the end of this, and good reason for us to be spending time discussing such things too.

The state of Michigan was highlighted in the article that started it all for me due to the fact that the Michigan State Attorney General was the one individual leading the charge so-to-speak.

Well, how's this for "spiritual convergence" and prophetic symbolism CLEARLY LINKING this state (and, by default, any substantial news coming out of the same state perhaps?) with the prophesied persecution?

In an unprecedented and astonishing development, the City of Dearborn, Michigan, through its Mayor and its official website, has personally attacked the 4 Christian missionaries arrested at the annual Arab International Festival that had everyone talking back on June 18th, 2010.

Remember that news? If not, here's a quick recap for you...

Arrested For Being Christian Preachers At Dearborn Arab Festival 2010

Simply put, Dr. Qureshi was engaged in a peaceful dialogue with several Muslim youths. The other 3 missionaries were merely videotaping the conversation when the Dearborn police moved in, seized the cameras, and then made the arrests.

Anyway, recently, the 4 Christian missionaries were arraigned on criminal charges on this past Monday morning, July 12th, 2010, in Dearborn's 19th Judicial District Court. The Thomas More Law Center, a national public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is representing all of the Christian missionaries.

The Mayor’s intrusion into the case destroyed whatever semblance remained of an unbiased and professional law enforcement action following the illegal seizure of video cameras to prevent recording of the events surrounding the arrests.

In fact, one of the Christian missionaries, Dr. Nabeel Qureshi, MD, tore apart the mayor’s 5-page statement attacking the missionaries. Listen to this, the doctor's rebuttal to the Mayor titled "Oh Really, Mayor O'Reilly?"...

Arab Festival 2010 - Response To Mayor Of Dearborn, MI

The hypocrisy is stunning! Bottom line, evenif these Christian missionaries were rude while witnessing, our Constitution protects the free speech of anyone and everyone -- Christians, Muslims, Atheists, idiots, and wisemen. It's why people like this member of the Black Panthers can get away with something as vile as this...

The New Black Panther Party

If no law was broken, then any form of speech is protected under the Constitution. Free speech is for everyone -- not just those we like or agree with.

No, the case in Dearborn, MI was RELIGIOUSLY MOTIVATED. Plain and simple. How else do you explain how people saying "Jesus Loves You!" gets them the attention from the local police, but shouting statements about killing people because of the color of their skin gets someone a free pass?

What I'm struck by is how we have a DIRECT LINK between the current Immigration debate and the coming persecution of Christians in this country! Unreal how we've come full circle like that.

Luke 21:28 (KJV) And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

True signs of the times indeed. It's time to lift up our heads.

Keep looking up! MARANATHA!!!

Right Now Radio - July 16th, 2010

2010-07-16T20:30:00.003-04:00

Don't miss tonight's broadcast of Right Now Radio from 11:30pm - 1:30am EST. Something tells me we might go slightly past the normal 2 hours.

In fact, we're switching things up a bit. Instead of the usual "Week In Review" format where we present a series of various news items that have some kind of prophetic significance, I want to focus our attention on a very important subject that's attempting to steal our attention these days.

The show is titled "The Economy, Immigration, Politics, And End Times Bible Prophecy", but I can assure you that the information we'll be covering is nowhere near as generic as the title would suggest.

In fact, this all came about quite unexpectedly. It's sort of like the RNR "Special Reports" where the entire program centers around one key such of importance to students of prophecy. Tonight will be no exception. It will also be the first of an important series dealing with the proper Biblical/Christian response to the times we're living in and to what's coming.

On the agenda tonight? Oh, nothing much...

> End Times Bible Prophecy
> Book of Revelation Prophecies
> How To Fight Fear With Faith
> The Prophesied Persecution of Christians
> Immigration Debate Connected To Bible Prophecy?
> Immigration Debate Connected To Mark Of The Beast?
> Immigration Debate Connected To Gulf Crisis?
> Economic Signs
> State-By-State Budget Crisis
> One World Economy / One World Currency / Amero
> North American Union (NAU)
> Mexico - United States - Canada Partnership
> A Constitutional Convention (Con-Con)?
> A New US Constitution? NAU Constitution?
> Prophesied 10 Kings
> America In End Times Bible Prophecy
> New World Order / One World Government
> "Order Out Of Chaos"
> Political Crises Brewing?
> Is A "False Flag" Event Imminent?
> Predictive Programming / Mass Conditioning
> Media Bias / Media Censorship
> Politics As Usual
> Kings Of The Earth Conspire
> And much, much more as time permits and God wills!

We'll perform the usual "round robin" of reporting on news items that are prophetically relevant. Rather than focusing on a single topic for the full 2 hours, we'll include a grab bag of one news headline after another from this past week that should have raised some eyebrows.

Please feel free to call in if there's something you want to talk about in relation to tonight's subject matter. Otherwise, I'll simply move right through the entire presentation from beginning to end.

I pray that it's the type of format that will motivate you to prayerfully consider the lateness of the hour, to strengthen your relationship with Jesus Christ, to talk to your family and friends about such things, and to evangelize the lost while you still can.

In any event, please join us tonight since we'll be covering a lot of ground that will prove that the prophesied end is much, much closer than we think.

Thank you for your prayers and support. Keep looking up!

The Truth - Notable Quotables

2010-07-16T15:29:00.001-04:00

Let's hit the Reset Button following all the studies in symbolism lately and focus on the kind of truth that matters most to us as Christians...

"Psalms 36:2, 'For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.' In the foregoing verse, David says, 'The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes;' that is, when he saw that the wicked went on in sin, in an allowed way of wickedness, it convinced him, that he was not afraid of those terrible judgments, and of that wrath with which God hath threatened sinners. If the sinner were afraid of these, he could never go on so securely in sin, as he doth."
- Jonathan Edwards / The Vain Self-Flatteries of the Sinner

"The first link between my soul and Christ is, not my goodness, but my badness; not my merit, but my misery; not my standing, but my falling; not my riches, but my need. He comes to visit His people, yet not to admire their beauties, but to remove their deformities; not to reward their virtues, but to forgive their sins."
- Charles Spurgeon

"No higher honor can be imagined than that of being Christ’s ambassadors, and proclaiming in Christ’s name the forgiveness of sins to a lost world. But let us ever beware of investing the ministerial office with one jot more of power and authority than Christ conferred upon it. To treat ministers as being in any sense mediators between God and man, is to rob Christ of His prerogative, to hide saving truth from sinners, and to exalt ordained men to a position which they are totally unqualified to fill."
- J.C. Ryle / 1816–1900

Symbolism Everywhere! What Else Is New?

2010-07-16T03:17:00.001-04:00

I'm just going to apologize ahead of time for this one because I'm in a "weird" frame of mind today.

Pop Culture symbolism ("Synchro-Pop") infused with potentially prophetically significant imagery running wild lately! Then again, maybe it's just me. Don't worry, you'll see what I mean.

Not sure why (maybe it's not enough sleep! HA), but I recalled the symbolism from these commercials, music videos, and TV shows from Pop Culture over the past few years going all the way back to 2005. They're the ones that always stuck with me since I first encountered them.

Again, not sure why that is, but I felt inspired to bring this up today in response to a few things I've noticed (and a few things I'm sure you've all noticed too).

Is there any prophetic significance whatsoever? That's the question.

2005: Christo and Jeanne Claude "The Gates" | video by space ink

"The Gates", huh? Ok.

A few years later a new show came out of nowhere to receive critical acclaim, but not the ratings, and it aired on NBC.

2009: NBC's Kings TV Show

A short-lived, but powerful drama since it strongly resonated with what we were just beginning to see happen in this nation at the tail end of the Bush administration and at the very beginning of the Obama administration.

Then, back in late December 2009 we came across this news about the appropriately titled band 30 Seconds From Mars (a band that we could -- and should -- devote an ENTIRE post to at some point given their penchant for HEAVY SYMBOLISM depicted in their album artwork, lyrics, and music videos)...

Mars, War, And A Tiger -- All In One Place

It's no secret that over the years album covers have provided the world with endless debates and discussions on the meaning of the images and symbolism often found there.

That being said, I just couldn't resist a quick mention of this today. While working my way through some of the new releases on iTunes (I had received some iTunes gift cards from the fam over the weekend) I came across a curious new release.

This Is War is the third studio album by American rock band 30 Seconds To Mars, released through Virgin Records and EMI on December 8, 2009. It is the first studio album by the band in 4 years, since A Beautiful Lie was released in 2005.

For those of you scoring at home, it was released just a single day before the 'Norway Spiral' incident, and even a few days before that first Tiger Woods-President Obama piece by New Wineskins, which led us from Tigers to Bengals to Gorillas to Owls.

For those of you following the 'Alien/UFO Meme' and 'Nephilim Meme', it's worth noting that BioWare has announced that the soundtrack of Dragon Age: Origins contains the song 'This Is War', the title track. The track made its world debut in the game (November 2009) before the release of the album.

Also, the This Is War album features 2,000 different album covers featuring individual photos of fans from around the world. The band asked fans to submit pictures of themselves, and then selected the 2,000 best images. The images were then used as covers for the album itself and shipped randomly to stores around the world as part of their 'Faces of Mars' promotion (an ode to the infamous 'Face on Mars'). The CD booklet, as well as the promotional and digital artwork features a roaring tiger.

Here's a Track Listing:

1. Escape — 2:24
2. Night of the Hunter — 5:41
3. Kings and Queens — 5:48
4. This Is War — 5:27
5. 100 Suns — 1:58
6. Hurricane — 6:12
7. Closer to the Edge — 4:34
8. Vox Populi — 5:43
9. Search and Destroy — 5:39
10. Alibi — 6:00
11. Stranger in a Strange Land — 6:54
12. L490 (Shannon Leto) — 4:26

Like I said, I couldn't resist pointing out that uncanny and unexpected convergence.

I thought I'd find out how some of the videos for some of these songs turned out. Unfortunately, they don't produce many music videos. Yet, the few they have created and released are eyebrow raising indeed.

For instance, this one doesn't come from their current album but comes from back in 2007. Notice the similar color scheme, motifs, themes depicted as in all the other examples presented here today.

Then we move on to some commercials from the past year or two -- all having to do with Telecommunications and Wireless Devices like cell phones and smart phones (a.k.a. "ET Phone Home!!!" -- that have stuck with me for probably the same reasons that they initially caught your eye too.

AT&T Commercial - Rethink Possible

AT&T Rethink Possible - Blanket Commercial

Droid - Stealth

Droid X - Tomorrow

Droid X - Is Here

Droid X - Never Miss

Pay close attention to the pro- Transhumanism/Singularity themes as well as the Octagon imagery in the above commercials because it's VERY IMPORTANT to those those in New Age/Occult/Satanic circles and synonymous with the concept of "Stargates" I've learned.

Also, I just learned that as part of the campaign to promote the new Droid X before its launch the other day, anyone could have signed up for the Twitter campaign. People across the country were sent text messages with clues and riddles on the whereabouts of where they could find a FREE Droid X in public.

No big deal, right? Sure. Until you consider that the whole thing plays right into the hands of the kind of "Predictive Programming" we've seen for decades regarding the whole so-called "Alien/UFO - Full Disclosure - First Contact" meme! Even the terminology used in the Twitter campaign is an overt reference to such.

Here's a snapshot of a message that some had received from the Twitter campaign...

And here's just one of a series of videos going viral online of regular people from across the country that captures the winners actually finding the free phone...

Droid X Designate #3 Recovered In San Francisco, CA

Nice. The VICTORIA Theater and "LOOKING GLASS" listed on the marquee sign behind the winner as he's filmed. Nothing weird about any of that. Yeah right!

Remember, Kenya borders Victoria Lake, or the source of the Nile River. Seeing that the Obama family hails from Kenya, and the fact that the Nile was seen as an earthly reflection of the Milky Way, I'd say this is an interesting bit of symbolism, wouldn't you?

As for "Looking Glass", I'm reminded of that one verse in the Bible...

1 Corinthians 13:12 (KJV) For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

In addition, the "Looking Glass" is synonymous with a portal to another reality, world, or timeline -- just like a Stargate, which is so consistent with this entire study! Adding further intrigue, check out this headline and story that just broke hours ago...

Looking Through The Obama Glass Darkly

In 18 months, President Obama has captained three major pieces of legislation with an economic stimulus package, healthcare reform and overhaul of financial institution regulations.

Yet, his popularity is heading south and if it were not for 90% of his black constituents could reach depths not seen since George W. Bush and Jimmy Carter.

You can't make this stuff up. Remember, we've just been told a few days ago that only a crisis can save him and his administration now. We all know that Rahm Emmanuel believes you never want to let a good crisis go to waste.

Speaking of the Droid phones, what is it with the eerie "Red Eye" type thingy? I'm sure we can all come up with some pretty good theories backed up by sound research, but whenever I see them in these ads and commercials I think of "Hal" from 2001: A Space Odyssey...

...and then immediately remind myself that 2010 is also 2010: The Year We Make Contact.

Interesting that we just had an rare Solar Eclipse event last weekend. It was a Solar Eclipse that was responsible for kick-starting another NBC hit TV series called Heroes...

Heroes Trailer

I'd be remiss if I didn't also point out the strange appearance of the "Red Eye" light in a David Bowie music video called...get this...Heroes!

David Bowie - Heroes
(NOTE: Embedding disabled by YouTube user...)

Of course, we've briefly looked at David Bowie before and even highlighted him and his career in the Pope-Jupiter Symbolism Study a few weeks back on Right Now Radio. Unreal though, isn't it?

All this "Droid Landing" intense symbolism has to be viewed differently I think especially with the news about what happened in China just a few days ago. An "Unidentified Flying Object" ("UFO") disrupted air traffic over Zhejiang's provincial capital Hangzhou late on Wednesday, the municipal government said on Thursday. Xiaoshan Airport was closed for several hours after the "UFO" was detected at around 9PM, and some flights were rerouted to airports in the cities of Ningbo and Wuxi.

As Andre Heath from The Alien Project points out, this is the latest in A SERIES OF UNEXPLAINED EVENTS over China recently.

Plus, just a week earlier (on June 30th, 2010) in neighboring Kazakhstan another "UFO" or "Fireball" was captured on film...

Regular Look Up fellowship readers should be VERY FAMILIAR with the importance of Kazakhstan to the whole "Alien/UFO" agenda given our studies on the subject...

More evidence that "The Destroyer" is on his way perhaps?

Is this in any way, shape, or form connected to the "Spirals" we've seen all around the world lately beginning with the infamous "Norway Spiral" in December 2009?

Spirals Seen In Skies Around The World!

Quick side note. Have you noticed how Theoretical Physicist Michio Kaku has been EVERYWHERE this year? Whether it's "Aliens", or Space, or the Gulf Crisis -- he's on all the networks and cable news shows giving his "expert" analysis. I wonder if he's been tapped to be the one to deliver the news that "We Are Not Alone In The Universe" some day soon. File that one away for later.

Are my eyes playing tricks on me? And what's up with the pervasiveness of the color Orange!?! I see that color and I instantly think about those traditional orange prison jumpsuits so I guess that works assuming The-Powers-That-Be are the ones behind all of this unusual symbolism we're seeing (no, not all of it, but some of it for sure). Maybe I should change the colors of this blog, huh? Geesh!

Whatever the explanation, I believe that Satan and his minions are becoming bolder as the separation between the physical and the spiritual realms is fast becoming non-existent as we race toward the start of the prophesied Tribulation.

Identifying The Antichrist

2010-07-15T03:30:00.002-04:00

Well, this is certainly an interesting bit of news!

This is an excerpt from the Sermon "Why The Antichrist Must Come Soon" preached at First Baptist Church of Hammond by Jack Hyles back in...1970!!!

1970 Prophecy: About Obama Being President Of US And World!?!

What do you think?

His line about it being a "black man" is stunning for a Sermon back in 1970, don't you think?

Pastor Carl Gallups has been getting a lot of national attention lately for his prophetic insights into the Gulf Crisis, but it's a previous insight of his that I always come back to whenever the subject of "The One" being THE prophesied Man of Sin comes up.

Did Jesus Give Us The Name Of The Antichrist?

To further support such a position, one Jewish Rabbi has come out to confirm Gallup's findings...

Inadvertently Confirmed By Rabbi!

At this point, I'm still leaning towards Obama being a "counterfeit Antichrist". That is to say, I think The-Powers-That-Be want us to think he's the real deal so that when the REAL Antichrist comes onto the scene to defeat/replace him, the world will naturally assume the best about that individual, and Christians will most likely assume that it's the Second Coming of Jesus.

It's interesting to me how this subject of "Who Is The Antichrist?" is one that I'm seeing in several different places lately. A few weeks ago we took a long, hard look at HRH Prince El Hassan Bin Talal as a likely candidate. He's as good a candidate as O is for sure. But I don't think either fits the bill.

I'd be remiss if I didn't also call attention to another Bible Study I just watched (thanks GMR1) from David Asscherick (first time coming across his name too) called "The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist", which I'll include here for all of you...

The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist - Part 1

The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist - Part 2

The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist - Part 3

The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist - Part 4

The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist - Part 5
(NOTE: The whole "God is not against people!" excessive pronouncement in this Part will definitely rub some people the wrong way, but I get what he was trying to say and I hope you do too...)

The Unavoidable Identity of the Antichrist - Part 6

I'll admit that his presentation is even more powerful than any of those presented at the outset of this piece, and certainly more powerful (in my book) than Dr. Joe VanKoevering's on HRH Prince El Hassan Bin Talal, and it even confirms my own sneaking suspicions from the very beginning when I was first saved and first started to look into this heated subject for myself as evidenced HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE.

Doesn't it make the most sense too? Think about all the things God's Word tells us about Satan and his pride. Now, factor in what we know about his insatiable desire to mimic and mock our Heavenly Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Why wouldn't he attempt to come out of the "church" -- the Roman Catholic Church -- like the above documentary proposes?

To me, while each case that could be made for identifying the Antichrist has its strong points, it's those that are focused on the Roman Catholic Church, the Vatican, and the Pope that carry the most weight with me right now. Sure, I could be wrong, but it seems more likely than a US President like President Obama, a member of the British Royalty, or some Muslim leader. Just my two cents.

Who really knows who the Antichrist is (or who will be). Right now, only our Sovereign Lord knows the true identity of the coming Son of Perdition. That's good enough for me.

But that doesn't mean we should stop watching and praying about such things. We're called to expose evil wherever we think we encounter it. That's why it's imperative that we keep having our spiritual eyes opened and on the lookout for the "likely candidates", but are always careful to make it clear that WE CAN ONLY SPECULATE and MAKE EDUCATED GUESSES BASED ON WHAT GOD'S WORD TELLS US, and that our analysis and interpretation is not a "Thus sayeth the Lord..." type of pronouncement.

In the final analysis, there's 3 distinct possibilities here. I led with Obama and I'll end with Obama. Either Obama is the Antichrist, or a "counterfeit Antichrist" (a set-up; a red herring), or just a forerunner who's paving the way for someone else (helping to condition the masses).

I will say that I'm not as "obsessed" with trying to figure out who the Antichrist might be like I was when I was first saved several years ago and first began studying prophecy, but I recognize that this is still an important subject for debate and discussion especially in a forum like this, which is why I decided to write and publish this post.

Why is this subject gaining more widespread focus in recent days? Perhaps it all has to do with the Holy Spirit leading the Body of Christ following this harbinger...

July 12, 2010: Recent Solar Eclipse (Av, Or "The Dark Time")

In the days and weeks ahead I believe it's imperative to rest on God's promises like this one...

Luke 21:28 (KJV) And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Keep shining the light of truth on the darkness of deceit. Keep looking up!

MARANATHA!!!

GodBlock

2010-07-13T12:15:00.002-04:00

And people laugh when we tell them that Christians will be persecuted viciously (yes, even here in the US one day) in the near future just as prophesied.

This new company is proof positive that the seeds of hate are being sown by non-believers. Sadly, they have no idea what's in store for them if they don't repent of their sins (1 John 1:9), accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior (Ephesians 2:8-9), and turn from their wicked ways (Acts 2:38).

We're all aware of the various Internet Filters that are available like the one we use called Safe Eyes. I guess it was inevitable that someone would create a filter for those on the-other-side-of-the fence so to speak.

"GodBlock is a web filter that blocks religious content. It is targeted at parents and schools who wish to protect their kids from the often violent, sexual, and psychologically harmful material in many holy texts, and from being indoctrinated into any religion before they are of the age to make such decisions. When installed properly, GodBlock will test each page that your child visits before it is loaded, looking for passages from holy texts, names of religious figures, and other signs of religious propaganda. If none are found, then your child is allowed to browse freely.

In the last century, the United States has seen a resurgence of fundamentalist religion. Fundamentalist Evangelicals, Mormons, Baptists, Muslims, and Jews have held back progress in science, human rights, civil rights, and protecting our environment. How can we reverse this trend and join the rest of the world in the gradual secularization of society and government?

Most deeply religious people are born into their religion, but even children raised in a secular household are vulnerable to content on the web. That's why we've produced GodBlock. GodBlock is a web filter that blocks religious content. It is targeted at parents and schools who wish to protect their kids from the often violent, sexual, and psychologically harmful material in many holy texts, and from being indoctrinated into any religion before they are of the age to make such decisions."

I wish this was a joke, but it's not.

Of course, this shouldn't come as a surprise to us given what God's Word has to say about these matters and these times...

1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV) For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

2 Peter 3:3 (KJV) Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

Nothing like blocking yourself and your children from the truth about the most important question facing each and every one of us: Where will you spend eternity when you die?

That reminds me, there's a depressing image on their Home Page of a young girl who's probably the same age as my son who's proudly wearing a GodBlock sticker on her arm like a tattoo. Unless God gets a hold of her, she'll be first in line to get the Mark of the Beast too.

Surprisingly, they do include a comment from a fellow sister in Christ who attempts to contend for and defend the faith although hers is listed at the bottom of the page and she's outnumbered 8 to 1. Still, we know what we're supposed to do.

Let's pray that those who are thinking about buying GodBlock decide that spending money on a Holy Bible is a much better investment. Pray that the Lord opens their eyes and ears.

As previously mentioned, things like this are only laying the foundation to help fulfill the prophecies of persecution during the end times (Revelation 17:6; Revelation 18:24).

Come quickly Lord!

Should Christians Fight The New World Order?

2010-07-13T12:00:00.005-04:00

I stumbled upon this commentary from Pastor Russ Dizdar of the Shatter The Darkness ministry on a very important subject these days.

The question?

"Should Christians fight the New World Order?"

I'm sure I can guess the knee-jerk reaction of most within the Body of Christ. But is that the Biblical, Christian response?

Here's what Dizdar had to say about this...

Russ Dizdar: Should Christians Fight The New World Order? P1

Russ Dizdar: Should Christians Fight The New World Order? P2

Russ Dizdar: Should Christians Fight The New World Order? P3

Russ Dizdar: Should Christians Fight The New World Order? P4

Russ Dizdar: Should Christians Fight The New World Order? P5

What do you think? Is he right? If not, why not?

Personally, the events and storyline depicted in this music video seem to capture my thoughts on how the coming Antichrist will rise to power. He won't be "one of them", he'll be "one of us" and his "common man, common sense" approach will tickle the ears of the unsuspecting and undiscerning masses. Then, by the time the "signs and lying wonders" are thrown in it will already be too late for most. Just watch this and you'll see what I mean.

Disturbed - "Land of Confusion" Official Music Video

This is what will happen when the Antichrist arrives on the scene to "save the day" and as a "man of the people" with the answers to all the world's problems. It's worth noting that this isn't from a Christian band, but they definitely get what's going on and how it will all go down in the near future too!

The ending is perfect how they all look up to the sky, and look up to the Antichrist, instead of Jesus Christ the only true Savior. Man, to think a non-Christian band came up with this I guess is proof that people do see what's going on, but only a handful can admit it as being connected to Bible prophecy.

In the end, I keep coming back to this verse...

Revelation 13:10 (KJV) He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

Keep looking up! MARANATHA!

Birth Of The Antichrist's Reign? Bottomless Pit Foreshadowed?

2010-07-12T13:13:00.002-04:00

Conception. Gestation. Birth.

So, did anything "suspicious" occur yesterday on July 11th like many of us were suspecting could?

Yep. A strong 6.2 earthquake struck Chile, or the place where the Solar Eclipse ended.

SANTIAGO — A strong 6.2 magnitude earthquake rattled northeastern Chile late Sunday in the region of Antofagasta, home to one of the driest places on Earth, US seismologists said.

The quake had a depth of 56.7 miles (91.3 kilometers) and was centered about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east-northeast of Calama, the US Geological Survey said. It hit at 8:11 pm (0011 GMT Sunday).

No injuries or damages were reported in Calama, located in the middle of the Atacama desert -- considered one of the driest in the world -- and in San Pedro de Atacama, one of the country's most popular tourist centers, local police sources told AFP.

A massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck Chile on February 27, sparking a huge tsunami that killed 521 people and swept away entire villages. The disaster caused an estimated 30 billion dollars in damage.

Of course! Chile (in almost the exact same region!) was the focus of our studies here back in February following another powerful earthquake -- an 8.8 magnitude earthquake in Santiago near Concepcion.

Folks, that earthquake a few months ago also coincided with a major Jewish time of the year! At the time, it was the when Israel celebrated the "Feast of Lots" or "Purim" and we attempted to tackle the prophetic symbolism seen in the juxtaposition of those two seemingly unrelated events.

Here's what was written in that February study called "Face It: The End Is Near"...

Concepcion is Spanish for "conception", in reference to the Immaculate Conception. It is also the name of several towns and cities. The largest of these is Concepción, Chile, which is home to over one million people.

Santiago is Spanish and Portuguese for "Saint James", son of Zebedee. He is the patron saint of Spain and his name is revered throughout the Spanish and Portuguese speaking world.

The juxtaposition seems obvious to me and it has me thinking the following:

> These insanely powerful earthquakes we've seen lately represent "sudden destruction". What does the Bible tell us about "sudden destruction" as it relates to end times Bible prophecy. For the answer, see 1 Thessalonians 5:3, which reads: "For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape."

> Earthquakes = "Labor Pains"

> Tsunamis = "Water Breaking"

> Concepcion/Conception leads to pregnancy, which leads to "labor pains", which leads to one's "water breaking", which leads to "birth", right?

> Santiago/James is a son of Zebedee, or a "Son of Thunder"

> Along with Peter and his brother John, James was part of the inner circle of Jesus, who witnessed the Transfiguration, were witnesses to certain of His miracles (like the raising of the daughter of Jairus), and accompanied Him to the Garden of Gethesemane.

> In Spain, he is called "El Senor Santiago", the patron saint of horsemen and soldiers. Yes, horsemen and soldiers. No further explanation needed for this group of students of eschatology.

> The "birth" that's coming is the beginning of the prophesied Daniel's 70th Week (Tribulation/Great Tribulation) and final 7 years of life as we know it.

> The "birth" is also the symbolic birth of the Antichrist's reign over this world for a time as prophesied

> Are today's tragic events evidence that the world is about to experience the culmination of God's plan for humanity as embodied withing Daniel's 70th Week now that we've all experienced the final "labor pain" (earthquakes), the "water breaking" (tsunamis), and the eventual and imminent rise of a perverted version of a "son of thunder" (reminded me of Jesus' description of Satan in Luke 10:18 for some reason) perhaps in response to the devastation by such disasters?

But that's not all. Let's ignore the "Antichrist-Is-Coming-And-The-Tribulation-Is-About-To-Begin" angle for a moment (as important as it is). Instead, let's hone in on the other important figures of the end times -- the Two Witnesses. I think there may be something profound in the above discoveries for what they MIGHT tell us about these two enigmatic figures who are scheduled to appear relatively soon in order to punish humanity for her sins.

How did I make that leap, or why am I thinking about that today? Well, we've already seen why yesterday's earthquake had me thinking about James who is one of the sons of Zebedee. The other was John. So, the Zebedee brothers = James and John = the "Sons of Thunder".

In Luke's gospel, Jesus spots early warning signs from his disciples as they travel toward Jerusalem. These early warning signs indicate that violence is on the way unless someone puts a stop to it. As we know, the Bible tells us that unimaginable violence is on the way, and that the only One who can put a stop to it is Jesus Christ Himself.

James and John show us why they were nicknamed “Sons of Thunder”. Their outburst, upon entering a Samaritan village, was a thunderous early warning signal to Jesus -- one he countered so that people would not be swept away by violence.

The Samaritans hated Jesus and his followers. This animosity becomes visible when the Samaritans refuse to offer hospitality to Jesus and the disciples as they travel the hot, dusty, and dangerous road to Jerusalem. James and John, hungry, tired, and expecting Middle Eastern hospitality -- in the form of washed feet, good food, and a place to sleep -- are outraged that it is denied them. And so their thundering voices are raised toward Jesus: “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them?” In today's idiom, that translates: “Do you want us to call in heavy artillery and military air strikes to blow them away?”

That got me thinking. Check out these comparisons:

Luke 9:51-54 (KJV) And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him. And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? (emphasis mine)

Which brings to mind the ministry of the Two Witnesses:

Revelation 11:4-6 (KJV) These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. (emphasis mine)

No, I'm not saying I think that James and John will be the Two Witnesses. I'm merely pointing out how the Holy Spirit used yesterday's events to prompt me to consider James -- a "son of thunder" -- and that, in turn, led me to consider the possible relationship between the verses that mention those Zebedee brothers and those that mention the Two Witnesses.

The ministry of the Two Witnesses was to start at the altar of incense in the Most Holy Place -- in God's Temple - this has been said by some to symbolize the Body of Christ -- whose members are the Temple of the Holy Spirit. In addition, some assert that the ministry of the Two Witnesses will also coincide with the rise of the Antichrist to power during the Tribulation, or those first 3.5 years of the final 7, which is also commonly known as Daniel's 70th Week. Needless to say, all of these beautiful mysteries that the Holy Spirit has led me to this weekend has me wondering whether or not we are about to experience the beginning of Daniel's 70th week, the beginning of the Tribulation, and, therefore, the beginning of the ministry of the Two Witnesses to occur synonymously with the rise of the Antichrist as world ruler.

That was originally written and published back in February (5 months ago) through no great wisdom of my own, but by merely being obedient to the promptings of the Holy Spirit that led me to study and write about such things. Fast forward to today.

I apologize for including such a large portion of that February article here, but I think it could be VERY IMPORTANT in our on-going studies and with what we saw yesterday. I hope the reasons why are obvious to you.

Again, the earthquake that followed the Solar Eclipse yesterday was not only an earthquake that occurred in roughly the very same region where the Solar Eclipse was last seen, but it was also an earthquake that occurred in roughly the very same region as the one back in February that also coincided with a historic time of the year for Israel! That's not a coincidence people. Like I said before, the Lord is speaking to His Bride. Are we listening?

As compelling as all of that is, there's another fascinating reason why I'm focused on this subject today. You'll never guess what can be found in the Chilean desert a few miles from this most recent earthquake.

A sculpture called "The Giant Hand of Atacama" created by Chilean Sculptor Mario Irarrázabal. The last thing you would expect to find in the middle of the driest desert on Earth is a a work of art. However, that’s exactly what you’re gong to see if you happen to be traveling through the Atacama Desert, in Chile.

The Hand of the Desert (La Mano del Desierto) is an 11-meters-tall sculpture, in the shape of a hand, rising up from the desert. 11-meters tall, huh? That figures. In fact, the 11-meter tall iron and cement sculpture was unveiled 1,100 meters above sea level (there's that number again!) in March 1992.

As if that weren't enough, "The-Hand Rising-From-The-Sand" theme is very common in Mr. Irarrázabal's work, and he has 3 other major similar sculptures in the US, Uruguay, and Spain -- the nation that (not coincidentally just won the World Cup yesterday!).

Irarrázabal’s first such sculpture was 1982’s "Monument to the Drowned" ("Monumento al Ahogado"), also partly engulfed in sand on Brava Beach in Punta del Este, Uruguay. It’s usually referred to as "the Monument of the Fingers", or simply "The Hand".

Irarrázabal created it from reinforced concrete and plastic in six days, during the first International Meeting of Modern Sculpture in the Open Air in the popular resort town, where he was the youngest of nine participating artists and opted to dodge the battle for prime spots in a public square. His hand -- the only sculpture remaining from the 1982 gathering -- is purportedly a warning to swimmers to leave the choppy waters there to the surfers.

The hand raised in warning seems more appropriate in the subsequent sites Irarrázabal chose to erect them -- busy Madrid, Spain in 1987 and Venice, Itly in 1995 (by the tourist-caked Arsenal and the Grand Canal) as seen below.

All I could really find on the Sculptor as far as a Bio is concerned is this...

Irarrázabal, now 68, was born in Santiago and in the early 1960s studied at the seminary of the Congregation of Holy Cross and the University of Notre Dame in the US, picking up a bachelor’s degree in philosophy as well as a master’s in art.

He moved to Rome to focus on theology at Gregorian University, then to West Germany to learn from expressionist sculptor Waldemar Otto. He was back in Chile in 1969, and subsequently spent two years teaching sculpture at Catholic University.

A specialist in modelling and bronze casting, Irarrázabal also works in brass, aluminum, stone, wood and concrete, and stays close to Christian and humanistic themes, simplicity being a watchword, certainly one that’s not uncommon in modern sculpture of any kind.

As to attaching a meaning to the hands jutting from the soil, the few clues on offer don’t appear to point to much.

Here's quick random thought. How odd is it that these types of sculptures are coming into focus at precisely the same time as the world watches the Gulf Region die a slow death, or become buried by nature regardless of the catalyst? Humanity -- drowned by nature or swallowed by its own excesses -- might be a more interesting interpretation of the works. If it's the latter (swallowed by its own excesses, its own sins), then I'd say that makes PERFECT SENSE for these times we're living in and where we believe we are on God's prophetic timeline.

Actually, on second thought, I'd say that probably the message we're supposed to derive from this kind of study. One secular, art site I found wrote the following that I think brilliantly captures my sentiments about all of this right now especially when you consider that "The Giant Hand of Atacama" sits along the Pan-American Highway too...

Here it’s more like the spooky structure that the humans stumble across at the end of the film 'Planet of the Apes', which turns out to be the Statue of Liberty’s torch, all that remains of their civilisation.

Lacking an online explanation as to how a giant human came to be waving, saluting or pleading for a halt in the arid Atacama sand, it’s compelling to think that Irarrázabal and his sponsors chose the spot for its very isolation, knowing that travellers on that highway would first blink in disbelief, and then smile in wonder.

So in some settings it’s the hand of God signalling, 'Stop, enough!', and in others we get a wave, a reminder that God is still with us, no matter where we travel and how lonely we might feel.

Amen! Amen! Amen!

We might also want to prayerfully consider Hand Symbolism throughout the ages and particularly in the ancient Mystery Religions and Art in general. Here's a hint: It's not a good thing.

Of course, all of this has me thinking about Patrick Heron's groundbreaking research on the Nephilim (their past and future role in the affairs of humanity), which I encourage you to seek out for yourself by listening to the various interviews he's given that you can find easily on YouTube.

Heron believes it is impossible that the Egyptians constructed the Great Pyramid. Rather, he suggested that 5,500 years ago, the Nephilim (who were the offspring of the Fallen Angels who mated with human women written about in the Book of Genesis) built the pyramids and other ancient structures. They were beautiful looking "spirit men," who appeared human, but were not bound by the same laws of physics as mankind, he explained.

Hmmm, sounds like the "Enceladus" and the Giants from Ancient Mythology or the Arthur C. Clarke connection we found back in February too, doesn't it? There are so many puzzle pieces related to earthquakes for us to put together!

Incredibly, take a quick look at what we discovered about Enceladus back in February -- the SAME MONTH as the first major earthquake in Chile this year, but about 2-3 weeks BEFORE it actually happened -- and marvel at the similarities (a.k.a. "spiritual converence" perhaps)...

Enceladus = "Trumpeter to Arms"

> One of the "Gigantes" ("Giants"), the enormous children of Gaia (Earth) fertilized by the blood of castrated Ouranos [Nephilim?]

> Like the other Gigantes, Enceladus had serpent-like lower limbs, "with the scales of dragons for feet" as Bibliotheke states

Additional research turned up some very intriguing facts that I think are worth mentioning. Take, for instance, what I found when I took a closer look at "Enceladus". Apparently, there's a famous FOUNTAIN (including a BRONZE STATUE as the centerpiece) located in a GARDEN in France that's surrounded by CEDARS all around it! How's that sit with your spirit?

Bosquet de l'Encelade, Versailles, France [Source]
The Bosquet de l'Encelade ("The Enceladus Grove") is one of the gardens hidden from view off of the main green of the garden of Versailles, linking the Chateau with the Grand Canal and Park. To get there you wander amongst a grove of tall cedars and are suddenly presented with this view. The Fountain of Enceladus was created by Gaspard Marsy in 1677 and was based on a sketch from the famous painter, Charles Le Brun. The fountain features a 25 meter spray of water that erupts from Enceladus' mouth. Enceladus ( Ἐγκέλαδος) was one of the Gigantes from Greek mythology, enormous children of Gaia (Earth) fertilized by the blood of the castrated Ouranos. The Gigantes attempted to overthrow the Olympian gods to claim heaven for themselves, and during that battle Athena disabled the giant with her spear. As punishment, Zeus incarcerated him under a pile of rock which became Mount Etna on Sicily. Etna's volcanic eruptions were said to be the breath of Enceladus, and the earthquakes and tremors were said to be caused by him rolling on to his side. With this fountain, Marsy shows him under a pile of rock and trying to escape his tortuous sentence.

Yesterday, I made mention of how certain photos were a sort of collection of "images of a beast" in a sense to me. Now, take a look at an image of this beast called Enceladus (NOTE: just a figure of speech I'm using here; I'm not inferring that this somehow fulfills the prophecies about the actual, literal "image of the beast" written of in the Holy Bible:

That's some pretty powerful imagery if you ask me! Gosh, looking at that it's hard not to think of the Nephilim, the Bottomless Pit, Apollo, and the Locusts.

Now, just scroll back up the page and go back and take another look at those eerily similar images of the artwork by that Chilean Sculptor. How insane is that? Personally, I believe this is a visual representation of the coming "birth" of the Antichrist's prophesied reign upon the Earth.

Who could view all of those images and not think of another famous (or is it "infamous") sculpture called "The Awakening" that Sue Bradley has referenced in her exceptional work?

J. Seward Johnson Jr’s sculpture near Washington, "The Awakening", is a 5-piece assemblage representing a giant embedded in the soil. The tallest part, the right arm, is nearly 6 meters in length.

Johnson erected it during the International Sculpture Conference Exhibition in 1980. It was on Hains Point, in view of what became Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport across the Potomac River, and sat there, occasionally half-submerged in floodwaters as well, for 27 years.

Then, in 2008, the National Park Service figured it had better tell "The Awakening" to move along, since it only had a temporary permit. They hauled it to National Harbor in nearby Prince George’s County, Maryland. How appropriate given the name of the place and the geographic location, isn't it? In the meantime, someone bought it for $750,000 and let it remain in public view.

Back to Heron and his work on the Nephilim. Heron goes on to explain how they mated with Earth women during two periods, before the Great Flood and afterwards. Heron said the Nephilim never died, but were entombed in an "abyss" or "netherworld". Yep, that's exactly what the Ancient Mythological accounts say about the Giants too -- that the Titans were imprisoned in Tartarus, and the Giants entombed beneath mountains and volcanos!

According to prophecy in the Book of Revelation, a spirit man or "star" (just like Esther's Persian name translates to!) comes down to Earth with the "keys" to the Bottomless Pit. He identified this being/creature as the future Antichrist, whom people will be deceived into thinking is the Messiah, but he'll actually lead the world into the prophesied Apocalypse.

I almost forgot! Yesterday's earthquake in Chile took place Antofagasta. Would you be surprised to learn of a possible connection to the whole so-called "Alien/UFO-Full Disclosure-First Contact" agenda?

Because of its high altitude, nearly non-existent cloud cover, dry air, and lack of light pollution and radio interference from the very widely spaced cities, the desert is one of the best places in the world to conduct astronomical observations. The European Southern Observatory operates two major observatories in the Atacama.

Antofagasta, at least the soil there, has been compared to that of Mars! Due to its otherworldly appearance, the Atacama (where the Giant Hand sculpture is located) has been used as a location for filming Mars scenes, most notably in the television series Space Odyssey: Voyage to the Planets. There's more!

In 2003, a team of researchers published a report in Science magazine titled "Mars-like Soils in the Atacama Desert, Chile, and the Dry Limit of Microbial Life" in which they duplicated the tests used by the Viking 1 and Viking 2 Mars landers to detect life, and were unable to detect any signs in Atacama Desert soil.

The region may be unique on Earth in this regard and is being used by NASA to test instruments for future Mars missions. The team duplicated the Viking tests in Mars-like Earth environments and found that they missed present signs of life in soil samples from Antarctic dry valleys, the Atacama Desert of Chile and Peru, and other locales. The Atacama is also a testing site for the NASA funded Earth-Mars Cave Detection Program.

In 2008, the Phoenix Mars Lander detected Perchlorates on the surface of Mars at the same site where water was first discovered. Perchlorates are also found in the Atacama and associated nitrate deposits have contained organics, leading to speculation that signs of life on Mars are not incompatible with Perchlorates.

Lastly, I should probably also mention how there was a pretty remarkable connection to the Book of Revelation. I don't know why I did this (because I don't normally go to this type of "extreme" with the numbers involved in a particular story), but I thought it was odd how the news reports I saw about yesterday's earthquake all said that it happened at 8:11pm.

For whatever reason, I decided to see what we find in the Book of Revelation in that chapter and verse. The results left me speechless in light of everything presented here today...

Revelation 8:11 (KJV) And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

Revelation 8 deals with the Seventh Seal and the following Trumpet Judgments. Those of us who like to glance at any possible "Synchro-Pop" connections might want to spend a few minutes analyzing the classic film The Seventh Seal.

It is a 1957 Swedish drama directed by Ingmar Bergman, about the journey of a medieval knight across a plague-ridden landscape, and a monumental game of chess between himself and the personification of Death, who has come to take his life.

Bergman developed the film from his own play Wood Painting. The title refers to what we find in the Book of Revelation, used both at the very start of the film, and again towards the end, beginning with the words "And when the Lamb had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour" (Revelation 8:1). Here the motif of silence refers to the "silence of God" which is a major theme of the film. Appropriate too.

The film is considered a major classic of world cinema. It helped Bergman to establish himself as a world-renowned Director and contains scenes which have become iconic through parodies and homages.

So much to digest these days. Get ready folks. Just "as in the days of Noah" like Jesus Himself warned us (Matthew 24:37). Now do you see why I make such a fuss out of these sorts of things all the time? The evidence is all there and staring us all in the face. It's time for the fence-sitters and outright unbelievers to wake-up and look up. For some, it could be now or never.

At this point, I feel I want to end by reminding us all that as Christians we are not supposed to be ruled by a spirit of fear. If you're unsure what I mean by that then please read "Fight Fear With Faith". Also, just because I focus on the sinister side of life and write about my belief that the Tribulation is close, it is not done to create fear and panic, which some say will continue to feed the fear more and more and more, but I do it to CONFIRM for others that what God's Word says about these end times is true, and that it can be trusted because we're starting to see it unfold all around us with a greater frequency and intensity.

Jesus said to beware so that you are not deceived. Unless we see these things in their proper context for what they really are, then we won't take them as seriously as we should, or we won't prepare ourselves spiritually for the reality that's coming sooner than later.

Of course God is control despite all the chaos and uncertainty, but that should go without saying. Lastly, just because I'm identifying what I believe to be the "the end is near" connections doesn't mean I'm "afraid" or "scared" in the least bit. Quite the contrary! MARANATHA!!!

All of these studies lately -- the perceived "connections" and "symbolism" mainly -- are hard to believe UNLESS you think about the spiritual force (the hand of God?) behind all of this. Again, to reiterate, I don't know how accurate any of these interpretations are. Lord, elevate Your words over my own! I'm just putting the thoughts out there for prayerful consideration. I'm just watchin' and prayin' like we're instructed to.

Even so, it's funny how it all seamlessly connects with a lot of the themes we've been exploring here the past several months. What does that mean (if anything)? Is there any spiritual significance to all of this whatsoever?

In the final analysis, I think the "birth" metaphor is on point. The earthquakes represent the "labor pains", the tsunamis represent the "water breaking", the hands reach up out of the ground represent the "child being born and entering the real world" -- MAYBE.

Yes, I could be wrong about all of this, but the Biblical connections to real-world events are too neat and too compact. I believe that the prophesied Daniel's 70th Week, the start of the Tribulation, the ministry of the Two Witnesses, and the rise of the Antichrist is at hand!

Keep looking up! Lord come quickly!

How true is this?

"There is a deep-seated hatred for God and His law in the heart of every lost man. It is for this reason that 'those who are in the flesh cannot please God.' In the religious man this enmity is often well hidden, but under the right circumstances it will lash out viciously."
Charles Leiter
