Signs of the End Times Updated 2013-09-17
We are living in an exciting time where there are a lot of things pointing to a timeframe that MIGHT signal the last day events. Please take note that this document is not to foretell the future or to predict any dates, it is a collation of different opinions and research done by different scholars of the end times to give us guidelines of what to watch for and to be ready and sensitive for the things to come. We will look at different pints of views that all point to a single time frame; 2008/9 to 2015/16 with 2012 in the middle. Remember that the End Times will be like a woman giving labour, she will have birth pains of which the initial pains (events) will be ―false‖ alarming her that the real pain is very close that will lead to the actual birth. 1. 2. 3. 4.

1. The Temple at the Centre of Time by David Flynn
In Temple at the Center of Time, Flynn follows the trail left by Newton and others who sought the prisca sapientia or ‗ancient widsom‘ of men like Plato, Pythagoras, and King Solomon. Newton spend most of his life researching the end times in the Book of Daniel and Revelation and he made some amazing discoveries and formulated the theory that time and distance on the earth are linked and designed by YHVH the Creator of the heavens and the earth and the master of the times. These theories could never be proved in his time due to the lack of technology but David Flynn researched Newton‘s work and proved it to be true. This is an amazing discovery that not only proved that God exist and the Scripture is true, it also gives us insight into the end time‘s timeline. MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN These were the words written by a mysterious hand on the wall of Belshazzar's palace, and interpreted by Daniel as predicting the doom of the king and his dynasty. These words were not only to be interpreted as words, but they are actual numbers: 360 Deg
Mene = 1000 Mene = 1000 Tekel = 20 Upharsin = 500
Sun Earth
This gives a total of 2520 which is a mysterious number with a lot of significance. This number also relates to the seven day weekly cycle; taking the movement of the earth around the sun where a circle‘s path can be expressed as 360 degrees. Seven times gives a week and if you multiply 7 with
2
7x
360 you also get 2520. This mysterious number multiplied with PI (3.1415), gives the mean diameter of the earth. Amazing!!!
This is what Newton discovered; that distance on the earth is related to time and the creator of the earth is also the One Who controls time. He had the theory but could not prove it. David Flynn proved this theory by having access to today‘s satellite technology and the ability to know the earth‘s dimensions. YHVH met man inside the Temple. YHVH (the LORD) exists outside of time and met man within time inside the Temple. The Temple holds the key to this phenomenon of time that is linked to distance and the mystical number of 2520. Flynn discovered when he measured the distance from the place where the Temple existed next to the Dome of the Rock, he discovered amazing findings: He first measured the distance from the Holy of Holies (inside the Temple) to Mecca and it measured 666 nautical miles. 666 is the number of the Antichrist and this shows that the Moslems will act against Jerusalem and YHVH‘s Plan in the hand of the Antichrist. He also measured the following places related to Biblical historical events: o
o o o o
Daniel was taken into captivity to Babylon and he prophesied the fall of Babylon. The measurement form the Holy of Holies to ancient Babylon is 539 statute miles. Daniel‘s prophecy came into fulfilment and Babylon fell in 539 BC. Ezekiel was taken into captivity to a place known today as Neppur in Iraq. Ezekiel prophesied the fall of Jerusalem and the distance between Neppur and the Holy of Holies is 587 statute miles. Jerusalem fell in 587 BC. Napoleon declared Palestine the homeland of the Jews in 1799, and he did this while he was situated in Paris. The measurement from the Holy of Holies to Paris is exactly 1799 nautical miles. Britain in 1948, because of the Belfour act, declared Israel a state and the measuring from the Holy of Holies to London is exactly 1948 nautical miles. Georgia was attacked by Russia on 08/08/08 (888) and this area is 888 miles from the Holy of Holies.
These six events gives us the proof end evidence of Newton‘s theory and also the evidence that the Scripture is true and that YHVH created the earth with its exact dimensions to reflect His Plan and prophecies exactly corresponding to the distances of the places it has been declared from. 33.3 Degrees – Signature of a third The navigational Compass Rose is divided into 33.3 degree segments which each has a navigational name and direction. The number 33 plays an important role in the Christian as well as Freemason worlds. Freemasons have 33 degrees in their ranking with the 33rd as the highest level. The Messiah died at the age of 33 on 33 AD. 33.3 is a third if you look at percentage and Y‘shua is described as one of the three aspects of YHVH which relates to 33.3. 33.3 degrees is exactly 2012 nautical miles. Revelation speaks about a third or 33,3 percent of all trees, fish and humans that will be destroyed during the Tribulation. All of this links us and open one‘s thoughts to run off and make connections with possible times of these events.

In a normal hour, a third of an hour is 60 x .33 = 19.8. What does the 0.8 represent? Multiply 0.8 with 0.33 again and this gives 0.48. This gives 19.48, which relates to the birth of Israel in 1948. In the navigation world they use degrees, minutes and seconds. An hour in navigation terms is not 60 minutes, but 59 minutes because the 60th minute is 0 again. If you take a third of the navigational hour (59 min), in other words, 59 x 0.33 = 19.79 Messiah‘s First Coming is very significant and the time of His ministry in 30AD and the time of His death and resurrection in 33 AD is very significant to us. 30 AD and 33 AD is the anchor or reference points in time just as the Holy of Holies is the centre point for distance. If you now count 1979 years from these two anchor points, it gives the two future dates 2009 and 2012. 30 AD represented the beginning of Y‘shua‘s (Jesus) ministry and 2009 is the parallel future starting of the ministry of the Antichrist. 33A AD is the death and resurrection of the Messiah where He conquered death and reigned. 2012 starts the ―death and resurrection‖ of the Antichrist where he will rule and reign from Jerusalem. (Declare himself as God and stop the daily sacrifice at the Temple). What is amazing is the correlation of the two dates, 2009 and 2012 with the Freemason prophecy timeline (see section 3) and the Myan Calendar of 2012 (section 5).

2. The Freemason Prophecy Timeline by David Flynn The freemason sign is made up of a compass and a square. These two instruments represent to ―join‖ the circle (heavens) with the square (earth). Supering the circle is one of the greatest accomplishments of Freemasonry. Tis task seems impossible but the Illuminated elite believe it was accomplished in the building of the Greatest Pyramid and this is one of the reasons why the pyramid is found in their symbolism. The dimensions of the Great Pyramid with its missing capstone set in place, makes this feat possible.
The Pyramid is 481 feet high (with it‘s capstone) and that dimetion (as radius) gives the diameter of the circle as 962 feet. The circumference of the circle is then: 962 x PI (3.1415…) = 3022 feet. This circumference of the circle is also the circumference of the base (square) of the Great Pyramid, making them equal in size. What makes it even more interesting is the fact that the 962 feet (height of the Pyramid) correlates with the date King Solomon‘s Temple was dedicated in 962 BC. The Great Pyramid‘s perimeter, 3022 feet, represents the years between 962 BC and 2016 AD. 3022 Biblical years of 360 days each converts to 2978 solar years with 365.24 days each. 3022 Biblical years x 360 = 1087 days or 2978 solar years Solomon dedicated the Temple in Jerusalem
962 BC
2016 AD
5
2978 years
This shows that if you add the Pyramid‘s diameter number (converted to solar years), and add this to the dedication date of the First Temple in Jerusalem which Solomon build, it equals 2016 that equals the ―height‖ of the Great Pyramid with the capstone included. This means that the finalising of the ―capstone‖ is the end date by which their prophecy will be fulfilled. What is their plan? The bottom of the Pyramid represents the people or the masses and the capstone represents the Illuminated elite that will control the uninformed masses. The Capstone represents the basic concept of the New World Order and the coming of their Messiah also known as the Antimessiah, Antichrist or Lucifer. The final seat of authority will be given and the total domination and control will be complete by the year 2016. Confirming these calculations further: 962 BC is a perfect ratio of PI. PI x 962 = 3022 2016 AD is the year 5776 in the Jewish calendar, which is also the height of the Great Pyramid in inches.
In Freemasonry, the year 1776 is also known as the ―Year of Light‖. 5776. Therefore the ―Year of Light 5776‖ marks the base of the Great Pyramid, which correlates with the year 1776 when America was established. (See One Dollar note)
6
The year 5776 AL (Freemason calendar) is the year 1776 AD and the year 5776 AM (Jewish calendar) is the year 2016 AD. These two numbers form the beginning and the end of this Pyramid as well as their plan, very interesting!!
The plan to implement a New World Order started way before the foundation of America was laid and the birth of America was part of the greater plans of the Enlightened Ones under control of Lucifer. America was founded in 1776 and the final date of domination will be 2016 and America will play a major role in setting up this One World Order. It took Solomon 7 years to build the Temple and putting that into our equations result in the following: Solomon dedicated the Temple in Jerusalem
2978 years 962 BC
2009 AD (7 years) 2016 AD
(7 years)
2978 years

There are seven years before the symbolic setting of the cap stone in 2016 AD. According to the Illuminati Pyramid, this 7 year period begins in 2009 with 2012 right in the middle. The completion of the Great Pyramid with the setting of the cap-stone represents the ending of the Christian age and the return of the Messiah. To the Illuminated elite, this event is rather, the return of their Messiah or Lucifer. The Time is Now!!! 2009 YEARS FROM THE BIRTH OF ABRAHAM (TO WHOM THE PROMISE WAS GIVEN) BACKWARDS TO THE CREATION OF ADAM IS 2009 YEARS. FROM THE BIRTH OF Y‟SHUAH (WHO IS THE PROMISED MESSIAH) TO THE PRESENT DATE IS 2009 YEARS. Years After Person/Event Creation

Genesis 5:28-29a And Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and became the father of a son. Now he called his name Noah, Genesis 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened. Genesis 8:13-14 Now it came about in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first of the month, the water was dried up from the earth. Then Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried up. And in the second month, on the twentyseventh day of the month, the earth was dry. (The flood lasted 371 days) Genesis 11:10 These are the records of the generations of Shem.

3. The Muslim Prophecy by Hayyan Nayouf Prophecy Circulated on Iranian Website by Hayyan Nayouf for Al-Arabia According to the text that is the foundation of modern Shiite Islam, a prophecy that a tall black man would rule the West portends, controlling the strongest army from the west, will arise before the coming of the Islamic redeemer or Islamic Messiah, the Mahadi. When this man appears, “He (Mahadi) is with us” Ali Ibn Abi-Talib—Mohammed‘s cousin and son-in-law and the most revered figure in Shiite Islam—prophesied that before the return of the Mahdi, the ultimate redeemer in Islam, a tall black man will rule the West and will carry a "clear sign" from the Third Imam, Hussein Ibn Ali, according to the report by Iranian-born, London-based journalist Amir Taheri. Forbes magazine published a story about the Iranian pro-government website that published a hadith (saying or tradition) from the 17th century Shiite text Bahar alAnvar (Sea of Light) setting off a string of rumours about the prophecy‘s connection to Obama. The link between this black man and the American presidential candidate started with his name. In Arabic and Persian, "Barrack Obama" means "the blessing of al-Hussein." When
10
written in Persian alphabet, the word "O Ba Ma" means "he is with us." Other coincidences contributed to establishing the theological link, including the view of the Iranian government that an Obama victory would signify the decline of the West and the triumph of Islam. Obama's relative lenience in pledging unconditional talks with Iran is also seen as a sign of American weakness. The Mahdi (Arabic for "the guided one" or ―messiah‖), is supposed to return before Judgment Day to eliminate injustice and tyranny. The appearance of the Mahdi is not mentioned in the Quran or the Sunnah (Prophet's teachings), and many Sunni scholars view it as a Shiite invention. The Mahdi figure is an essential part in the Shiite doctrine. For Shiites, Mahdi is believed to be the Twelfth Imam, a descendant of the prophet who went into hiding, but will return one day return to restore justice to the world. As part of the fulfilment of the coming of the Mahadi, there must be a time of chaos and destruction before his coming. The president of Iran makes it his main purpose to create his destruction in order for their Messiah to come. This Islamic Messiah will fit the bill when the Antichrist arrives and they will be mislead by his appearance. Obama was elected as the 44th President of the United States of America on 4/11/2008. This also happened after the solar eclipse 1 Aug 2008 and the financial crisis. He will prepare the way (like John the Baptist prepared the way for Y‘shua or Jesus) for the coming Antichrist and to give him the seat and rule from the liberated Jerusalem.

4. Planet X, Nibiro or Wormwood
WHAT IS PLANET X? Planet X is a planet that the ancient Sumerians referred to as "Nibiru." This ancient Sumerian word literally means "Planet Of The Crossing." The Sumerians gave it this name because approx every 3,000 odd years Planet X crosses Earth's orbit. The Sumerians counted it as the twelfth planet in our solar system because they regarded both the Sun and Moon as planets. (Photo of Sumerian tablet, dated 4,500 B.C., shows 11 planets orbiting the sun. One represents Earth's moon. The 10th is Planet X.) The Sumerians counted it as the twelfth planet in our solar system because they regarded both the Sun and Moon as planets. However, modern astronomers have dubbed it as Planet X, meaning that it
12
is the tenth planet in our solar system, the "X" standing for "ten." Planet X has a highly elliptical orbit, rather than the usual circular orbit, more resembling the orbit of a comet than of a planet. It's orbit carries it far out into space, far beyond our known solar system, but then approx every 3,000 years it returns to the inner solar system and crosses the orbit of Earth. Could this Planet have caused the Flood in Noah‘s time approx 3,000 years ago?
Planet X is a humongous, giant planet over five times larger than Earth, and having over 100 times the mass of Earth. It has a magnetic core that is so powerful that it clashes with the electromagnetic fields of other planets in the solar system. It was because of this electromagnetic disturbance of other planets that astronomers in recent times figured out that there had to be another huge heavenly body in the outer reaches of the solar system. The search for this unknown heavenly body began over 400 years ago. There is a great amount of literature available on the subject for those who want to research it.
Planet X - Astronomical Testimony News Reports on Planet X: The articles below, detailing a search for a Planet X, or the 10th planet in our solar system, are speaking of the same planet Sitchin calls the 12th Planet. In his book, The 12th Planet, Sitchin explains that the ancient Sumerians counted the Sun and the Earth's moon as planets, and thus the Sun, Earth, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto added up to 11 planets. Modern astronomy excludes the Sun and the Earth's Moon, counting only 9 planets in our known solar system. Below is a collection of news reports that made comments on the findings of institutions like NASA, USNO (United States Naval Observatory), Aeronautics and Space Administration, Palomar Observatory for the California Institute of Technology, doctorates, astronomers and scientists:
13
Astronomy Search for the Tenth Planet Dec 1981 Astronomers are readying telescopes to probe the outer reaches of our solar system for an elusive planet much larger than Earth. Its existence would explain a 160-year-old mystery. ... The pull exerted by its gravity would account for a wobble in Uranus' orbit that was first detected in 1821 by a French astronomer, Alexis Bouvard. Beyond Pluto, in the cold, dark regions of space, may lie an undiscovered tenth planet two to five times the size of Earth. Astronomers at the U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO) are using a powerful computer to identify the best target zones, and a telescopic search will follow soon after. ... Van Flandern thinks the tenth planet may have between two and five Earth masses and lie 50 to 100 astronomical units from the Sun. (An astronomical unit is the mean distance between Earth and the Sun.) His team also presumes that, like Pluto's, the plane of the undiscovered body's orbit is tilted with respect to that of most other planets, and that its path around the Sun is highly elliptical. New York Times June 19, 1982 A pair of American spacecraft may help scientists detect what could be a 10th planet or a giant object billions of miles away, the national Aeronautics and Space Administration said Thursday. Scientists at the space agency's Ames Research Center said the two spacecraft, Pioneer 10 and 11, which are already farther into space than any other man-made object, might add to knowledge of a mysterious object believed to be beyond the solar system's outermost known planets. The space agency said that persistent irregularities in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune "suggest some kind of mystery object is really there" with its distance depending on what it is. If the mystery object is a new planet, it may lie five billion miles beyond the outer orbital ring of known planets, the space agency said. If it is a dark star type of objet, it may be 50 billion miles beyond the known planets; if it is a black hole, 100 billion miles. A black hole is a hypothetical body in space, believed to be a collapsed star so condensed that neither light nor matter can escape from its gravitational field. Newsweek Does the Sun Have a Dark Companion? June 28 1982 When scientists noticed that Uranus wasn't following its predicted orbit for example, they didn't question their theories. Instead they blamed the anomalies on an as yet unseen planet and, sure enough, Neptune was discovered in 1846. Now astronomers are using the same strategy to explain quirks in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune. According to John Anderson of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., this odd behavior suggests that the sun has an unseen companion, a dark star gravitationally bound to it but billions of miles away. ... Other scientists suggest that the most likely cause of the orbital snags is a tenth planet 4 to 7 billion miles beyond Neptune.
14
A companion star would tug the outer planets, not just Uranus and Neptune, says Thomas Van Flandern of the U.S Naval Observatory. And where he admits a tenth planet is possible, but argues that it would have to be so big - a least the size of Uranus - that it should have been discovered by now. To resolve the question, NASA is staying tuned to Pioneer 10 and 11, the planetary probes that are flying through the dim reaches of the solar system on opposite sides of the sun. Astronomy Searching for a 10th Planet Oct 1982 The hunt for new worlds hasn't ended. Both Uranus and Neptune follow irregular paths that observers can explain only by assuming the presence of an unknown body whose gravity tugs at the two planets. Astronomers originally though Pluto might be the body perturbing its neighbors, but the combined mass of Pluto and its moon, Charon, is too small for such a role. ... While astronomers believe that something is out there, they aren't sure what it is. Three possibilities stand out: First, the object could be a planet - but any world large and close enough to affect the orbits of Uranus and Neptune should already have been spotted. Searchers might have missed the planet, though, if it's unusually dark or has an odd orbit. ... NASA has been recording velocities for a year now and will continue for as long as necessary. This past spring, it appeared that budget cuts might force the end of the Pioneer project. The space agency now believes that it will have the money to continue mission operations. Next year, the JPL group will begin analyzing the data. By the time the Pioneer experiment shows results, an Earth-orbiting infrared telescope may have discovered the body. ... Together, IRAS and the Pioneers will allow astronomers to mount a comprehensive search for new solar system members. The two deep space probes should detect bodies near enough to disturb their trajectories and the orbits or Uranus and Neptune. IRAS should detect any large body in or near the solar system. Within the next year or two, astronomers may discover not one new world, but several. New York Times January 30, 1983 Something out there beyond the farthest reaches of the known solar system seems to be tugging at Uranus and Neptune. Some gravitational force keeps perturbing the two giant planets, causing irregularities in their orbits. The force suggests a presence far away and unseen, a large object that may be the long- sought Planet X. ... The last time a serious search of the skies was made it led to the discovery in 1930 of Pluto, the ninth planet. But the story begins more than a century before that, after the discovery of Uranus in 1781 by the English astronomer and musician William Herschel. Until then, the planetary system seemed to end with Saturn.
15
As astronomers observed Uranus, noting irregularities in its orbital path, many speculated that they were witnessing the gravitational pull of an unknown planet. So began the first planetary search based on astronomers predictions, which ended in the 1840's with the discovery of Neptune almost simultaneously by English, French, and German astronomers. But Neptune was not massive enough to account entirely for the orbital behavior of Uranus. Indeed, Neptune itself seemed to be affected by a still more remote planet. In the last 19th century, two American astronomers, Willian H. Pickering and Percival Lowell, predicted the size and approximate location of the transNeptunian body, which Lowell called Planet X. Years later, Pluto was detected by Clyde W. Tombaugh working at Lowell Observatory in Arizona. Several astronomers, however, suspected it might not be the Planet X of prediction. Subsequent observation proved them right. Pluto was too small to change the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, the combined mass of Pluto and its recently discovered satellite, Charon, is only 1/5 that of Earth's moon. Recent calculations by the United States Naval Observatory have confirmed the orbital perturbation exhibited by Uranus and Neptune, which Dr. Thomas C Van Flandern, an astronomer at the observatory, says could be explained by "a single undiscovered planet". He and a colleague, Dr. Richard Harrington, calculate that the 10th planet should be two to five times more massive than Earth and have a highly elliptical orbit that takes it some 5 billion miles beyond that of Pluto - hardly next-door but still within the gravitational influence of the Sun. ... US News World Report Planet X - Is It Really Out There? Sept 10, 1984 Shrouded from the sun's light, mysteriously tugging at the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, is an unseen force that astronomers suspect may be Planet X - a 10th resident of the Earth's celestial neighborhood. Last year, the infrared astronomical satellite (IRAS), circling in a polar orbit 560 miles from the Earth, detected heat from an object about 50 billion miles away that is now the subject of intense speculation. "All I can say is that we don't know what it is yet," says Gerry Neugesbeuer, director of the Palomar Observatory for the California Institute of Technology. Scientists are hopeful that the oneway journeys of the Pioneer 10 and 11 space probes may help to locate the nameless body. Nibiru can be seen currently below orion‘s belt to the left and down from the Horsehead Nebula at : RA 50h49m15s Dec -4d02‘42″ ―Astronomers are so sure of the 10th planet, they think there is nothing left but to name it.‖ Ray T. Reynolds, NASA - NASA Press Release 1992
16
―Unexplained deviations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune point to a large outer solar system body of 4 to 8 Earth masses, on a highly tilted orbit, beyond 7 billion miles from the sun.‖ The New York Times Sunday, January 30, 1983 Clues Get Warm in the Search for Planet X John Noble Wilford Recent calculations by the United States Naval Observatory have confirmed the orbital perturbation exhibited by Uranus and Neptune, which Dr. Thomas C. Van Flandern, an astronomer at the observatory, says could be explained by ―a single undiscovered planet.‖ He and a colleague, Dr. Robert Harrington, calculate that the 10th planet should be two to five times more massive than Earth and have a highly elliptical orbit that takes it some 5 billion miles beyond that of Pluto – hardly next-door but still within the gravitational influence of the Sun. Some astronomers have reacted cautiously to the 10th-planet predictions. They remember the long, futile quest for the planet Vulcan inside the orbit of Mercury; Vulcan, it turned out, did not exist. They wonder why such a large object as a 10th planet escaped the exhaustive survey by Mr. Tombaugh, who is sure it is not in the two-thirds of the sky he examined. But according to Dr. Ray T.

―All I can say is that we don’t know what it is yet,‖ says Gerry Neugebaur, director of the Palomar Observatory for the California Institute of Technology. Scientists are hopeful that the one-way journeys of the Pioneer 10 and 11 space probes may help to locate the nameless body. Some astronomers say the heat-emitting object is an unseen collapsed star or possibly a ―brown dwarf‖ — a proto-star that never got hot enough to become a star. However, a growing number of astronomers insist that the object is a dark, gaseous mass that is slowly evolving into a planet. For decades, astronomers have noted that the orbits of two huge, distant planets — Neptune and Uranus —deviate slightly from what they should be according to the laws of physics. Gravitational pull from Planet X would explain that deviation. ―Morever,‖ says Neugebaur, ―if we can show that our own solar system is still creating planets, we’ll know that it’s happening around other stars, too.‖ Hazelwood, M.,(2001) Blindsided: Planet-X Passes in 2003. Earthchanges. (ISBN 1-931743-40-1. First Publish.) In January 1981, several daily newspapers carried a report that Dr. Richard Harrington and his colleague, Dr. Thomas Van Flandern, of the US Naval Observatory, had told a meeting of the American Astronomical Society that ―irregularities in the orbit of Pluto indicated that the solar system contained a 10th planet.‖ A similar story was run by the New York Times on June 19, 1982. Apparently, the announcement of the discovery was a slip because within a week they retracted it and have been publicly silent ever since. Yet, there is sufficient evidence that they have had an internal project tracking PX, as this NASA internal document records years later:

Abstract The observation of the region of the sky in which it is believed Planet X should now be, based on perturbations observed in the motions of Uranus and Neptune, was determined, and there was no reason to update that determination. A limited area of that region was photographed, and that will be continued. A given area is photographed with the twin 20 cm astrograph in New Zealand on two successive nights near the time that area

is in opposition, and these plates are blinked in Washington to identify anything that has moved. The predicted region is in the south, which requires observations from a southern station, and it is in opposition in the April to June period, which means observations have not yet started for the year. Blinking will be done as soon as the plates are received in Washington.
―One year later, in 1983, the newly launched IRAS (Infrared Astronomical Satellite) quickly found Planet-X: ―A heavenly body as large as Jupiter and part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation of Orion by an orbiting telescope‖ –wrote the Washington Post.
In August 1988, a report by Harrington calculated that its mass is probably 4 times that of Earth.‖ In 1992, Harrington and Van Flandern published their findings and their conclusion that there is an ‗intruder‘ planet. The search was narrowed down to the southern skies, below the ecliptic. Planet-X is likely to be a brown dwarf whose orbit takes it back and forth between our Sun and our Sun‘s twin. Planet-X has an orbit which takes approx 3660 years. ―When a planet’s orbit is between two suns, instead of round one, that orbit is a bit peculiar. It spends 99.99% of its time slowly going away from one of the suns…to reach the half-way point. Then…the gravity of the sun it’s approaching takes over, and in a relative flash it travels the other half of its journey. Planet-X reached the halfway point sometime in 2000. It only takes about 3 years to travel the rest of the distance…It’ll be cooking with its greatest speed by the time it passes. Once it crosses Pluto’s orbit, it will only take 90 days to pass right between Earth and the Sun.‖ In 1982, even NASA, momentarily officially recognized the existence of Planet-X: ―An object is really there beyond the outermost planets.‖ *There was a lot of talk of Planet X passing by the earth in 2003 but it didn‘t happen. Again, there is a lot of talk of this planet passing by the earth in 2012. At this point, I am very skeptical that this is going to happen. What is relevant to this topic is the connections that this planet and the theories surrounding it‘s passing through our solar system being a fulfilment of end time prophecies.

Today, NASA is trying to sweep the danger under the carpet, claiming that it is nothing more than a large asteroid. But, whereas until early 2001, only the largest telescopes could have seen Planet-X, now even small to mid-level observatories are sighting it. On the 4th of April 2001, the Lowell Observatory reported its magnitude and co-ordinates. Click on picture to link to Space.com

Now before someone thinks that Google would not filter out items please remember that Google already does filter the internet for China. So at the request of some government this was removed.

I typed these same quarantines in Microsoft World Wide Telescope. They area is not blanked out then it dawned on me that Microsoft World Wide Telescope is images from right now the Google Earth is from 2007. This was the image found on WWT in 2007 This is sound of Orion and moving south. The planet is coved by a green dust cloud or something close to it. The best way to search for the planet is with the infrared (borasta view in the telescope). Starts to look as the rumours about a tenth planet are true.
The Great Cover-up After the discovery of Planet X in 1982, astronomers began to study it seriously. They soon discovered that it was inbound, headed towards the inner solar system again. It was determined that it would cause massive earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves, the melting or shifting of the polar ice caps, sudden fluctuations in temperature and climatic conditions, and probably a shift in the polar axis of Earth. This information was passed on to the political leaders in our government, and presumably the political leaders of other nations. After some consultation, it was decided that if the news about Planet X and the worldwide disaster that it is expected to cause was released to the public, the public would react in fear, hysteria, panic, and anarchy. The result would be the total collapse of the world economy. Wicked men will protect their precious dollars at any cost, counting them of more value than the lives of their fellow human beings. So, a decision was made to suppress all information about Planet X, classifying it as "Super Top Secret." Yet, in the years since 1982-83, NASA and other agencies have continued to diligently study Planet X, accumulating a vast amount of information about it. In spite of the best efforts of astronomical and political leaders, working in collusion to suppress all information about Planet X, there have been leaks. It is now known that the Hubble Space Telescope has been repeatedly used to observe Planet X, but all information obtained by it has been hidden from the public. Only a select few top scientists and government officials have been allowed to view the photographs of Planet X picked up by Hubble. It has also been revealed that the Hubble telescope is equipped with special technological equipment that prevents any interception of its signals by anyone other than NASA. Since it is only taking pictures of things in the heavens, why is it so important that only NASA receive those pictures? Do they have something to hide? They sure think they do! It has also been revealed that since 1982-83 the government has quietly financed and built eight new observatories, equipping them with the most advanced
24
technological equipment available, for the specific purpose of studying Planet X. These observatories are in various locations around the U.S., with two of them being in New Mexico. But the public was never told about these observatories being built with their tax dollars. Why?
Your Caring Government During the twenty-two years since the discovery of Planet X, the governments of the wealthy industrial nations of the world have quietly built vast underground complexes (bunkers) capable of housing thousands of people. These bunkers are intended to guarantee the survival of certain wealthy political leaders, ultra-rich bankers, corporate heads, etc., and others deemed necessary for their survival and pleasure. These bunkers have been stocked with enough food, water, clothing, medicine, and technological equipment to guarantee the survival of the occupants for several years. Those "selected" to use the bunkers have also placed various treasures in them (art; money; automobiles; alcohol; etc.) in order to preserve these things for their future use. At the proper time these "special" people plan to enter their secret, reinforced, earthquake proof bunkers, where they expect to "ride out" the devastation caused by Planet X, emerging only after the chaos and danger is over. But what about the masses of people on Earth who have no bunkers? Too bad! So sad! The ultra-rich political and financial leaders of the world could care less about the survival of the "common man." The only important thing to them is that they survive. They are the "nobles." They must survive in order to rebuild a "New World Order" and rule over whatever "peons" may survive the devastation caused by Planet X. Sic!
The Bible's Explanation For the Cover-up So how can it be that our governments would withhold information this important from us? How could there be such evil in control that would conspire against us to the degree I am saying? And how can a global conspiracy be effectively orchestrated through the centuries so that it does not die out soon after the men who invented it and their immediate successors pass away? Once again, the Bible has answers. The Bible describes a global conspiracy that has continued from the ―fall‖ of Adam. It tells us that for roughly all of Earth's 6000 year history, Satan, the fallen angel, has been allowed to run around interfering with the world and is even called ―the god of this world‖ (2Cor 4:4). God still intervenes and keeps his master plan on schedule, but Satan has his own plan—which actually serves God's purposes as well or it would not be permitted, of course. We are told that Satan has his own ―seed‖ or offspring (Gen 3:15; Mt 13:38), his own kingdoms through the millennia (Dan 2; 7; Rev 17:10) and his own rulers that he places over them (Lk 4:5-6). Through all of this, he ―deceives the whole world‖ (Rev 12:9) including believers. In fact, Revelation 12, 13, and 17 together blatantly depict the governments of this world as Satanic (no wonder governments today are so inept).
25
What is Satan using his power, influence and deceptions to accomplish? Revelation says that at the very end of this age there will be a 3½ year period of Satan's wrath called ―the Great Tribulation‖ (Dan 12:1, 11; Mt 24:21) during which Satan's will is enforced over the entire Earth by his appointed ruler called ―The Beast‖ (Dan 11:4044; Rev 13:7-8). Under this dictatorship, he will force everyone to take the mark and worship him in order to have food and engage in trade (Rev 13). Of course, the nations would not willingly give up their sovereignty today if asked. But if a global calamity including economic collapse, world war, and severe famine were to happen, they would happily give it up to anyone who could unify the world to restore peace, prosperity, and most importantly: the food supply. (And it would not hurt if that person would claim and be able to convince people he was God.) Planet X's passage will setup for exactly that scenario. And therein lies the motive for the cover-up. If people knew about Planet X in advance, they would prepare in numerous ways to greatly soften the blow and not need salvation from and give power to the Beast. Only by keeping people in the dark can Satan achieve the maximum effect from Planet X's passage needed to make way for his global dictatorship. This is why you will not hear about Planet X in the news until it is too late to do much about it. Satan does not want you to know and God is allowing it so that this world who does not have a love for the truth can receive its deserved strong delusion (2Th 2:11-12).
Far Fetched or Prophecy coming into fulfillment? Some would obviously dismiss the above cover-up explanation as just a conspiracy theory. For the average mainstream media news consumer, such concepts are hard to accept and along with it my premise that Planet X is real. However, I encourage the reader, especially if he believes the Bible, to stick with me through the end and see how the Book of Revelation demands something exactly like the Planet X ―myth‖ to fulfill its details. Once you see that in your Bible yourself for the first time, you can decide whether the Planet X that NASA once talked about (and now does not) is going to be the fulfillment, or if it will be something completely different and as yet unknown by anyone. The point is to show you important new insights into prophecy that reveal a threat to our survival that nobody is talking about which you definitely would want to know about in advance if you had the chance.
BUT GOD....What does the Scripture say…? As I read these various reports now coming in, I have been made to marvel at the absolute accuracy of God's inspired Word. There is no question that the coming of Planet X is going to cause Earth to tremble and shake like it has never been shaken previously in human history, Haggai 2:6-7; Matthew 24:21; Hebrews 12:26-27; Revelation 16:18. Now read Isaiah 2:10-22, noting especially verses 19-21. Isaiah 2:19-21 "And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of YHVH, and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth. In that day a man shall cast his
26
idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of YHVH, and for the glory of His majesty, when He arises to shake terribly the earth." And when this happens to these wicked men, Psalm 2:4. "He that sits in the heavens shall laugh YHVH shall have them in derision," See also Psalm 59:1-8 and Proverbs 1:22-31. All of these grandiose plans being made by those who consider themselves the "elite" of humanity, are going to come to naught. Not only does Isaiah 2 tell us that their treasures will be left "to the moles and to the bats," but James 5:1-3 tells us that their "gold and silver" will become "cankered" and will "rust." Glory to God! These vast underground bunkers that the wicked ultra-rich of the earth have built, may very well become their tombs. There is no way to guarantee that the entrances of these bunkers will not be buried deep beneath the earth, sealed forever by the terrible earthquakes that are going to occur with the coming of Planet X. (See section 7 discussing Denver Airport and it‘s underground bunkers). Neither is there any way to guarantee that the areas of the earth where these bunkers are located won't sink beneath the seas in the coming devastation, carrying their occupants to a watery grave. Someone once wrote, The best laid plans of mice and men often come to naught." This is precisely why Isaiah 2:22 warns, "Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils for wherein is he to be accounted of?" The only security for anyone in view of the coming of Planet X, is to know the Master Y‘shua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) in a personal, saving relationship. Are you ready?
Planet X in the Book of Revelation (Abstract from the Book – Know the Future by Tim McHyde) Let's look at where Planet X fits the Book of Revelation, the most important prophetic book in the Bible—and the only one that generally sets things in clear chronological order. Rather than cover the traditional arguments about whether Revelation is literal or only figurative and whether the seals, trumpets and bowls happen sequentially or happen in parallel, we will just jump right in reading it naturally. One of the things that came out of this prior research was the conclusion that the four trumpets of Revelation Chapter 8 described an incendiary meteorite storm, an asteroid impacting the ocean, and our atmosphere polluted from volcanic activity with enough dust to block a third of all the light from the Sun, Moon, and stars. While I was not sure what ―Wormwood‖ could be, I was convinced that we would soon find out when all of these things came to pass right before the Feast of Pentecost (early summer) of the year before the Great Tribulation began. Given this timing, I saw that this would be the trigger event to the rise of the global Beast government (spoken of in Revelation and Daniel). In other words, before I even heard about Planet X, I was already convinced that a group of one or more celestial bodies headed our way would be responsible for what Revelation 8 literally described. So as far as I was concerned, if science would not confirm Planet X 's coming, the Books of Revelation and Daniel already did. Let's look at where PX fits the Book of Revelation, the most important prophetic
27
This is because Planet X so perfectly fits what Revelation literally says, that it can silence these debates forever. The only reason that these old debates have raged for centuries is because no one could conceive until the end times how the details of Revelation 6, 7 and 8 could literally be fulfilled just as written (in fact, it was only in recent decades that scientists accepted that major asteroid impacts could happen on Earth). When information does not fit our paradigm, there is a tendency to distort it, and in this case this ―paradigm blindness‖ forces people to rearrange the natural order of events and/or change their natural, literal meaning to make some sense of it. However, there is no reason to play around with the verses in that way once the previously missing information about the existence and threat of Planet X is realized.
1st Trumpet — Severe Hail of Meteorites From Planet X's Debris Field Revelation 8:7 The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with water, and it was hurled down upon the Earth. A third of the Earth was burned, a third of the trees were burned, and all the grass of the Earth was burned. Although hail usually means frozen droplets of water that reach Earth, this choice of word seems to come from a limitation of the original language Revelation was written in. There is no word for ―meteorite‖ in the biblical vocabulary (and ―brimstone‖ refers to burning sulfur rock, which you can still find if you visit the site of Gomorrah near the Dead Sea). It appears that when ―hail‖ is associated with ―fire‖, it must be talking about rocky hail, or meteorites, not ice hail. It makes no sense that grass and forest fires over all the Earth would follow icy hail, but makes perfect sense after a worldwide flurry of burning meteorites. Rocks and ice are expected to be associated with PX. It is said that when PX travels through our solar system, it drags these materials behind it from the asteroid belt. PX watchers expect that we will pass through its tail and encounter these objects.
2nd Trumpet — Mountain-Sized Piece of Planet X's Tail Hits the Ocean Revelation 8:8-9 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned into blood, (9) a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. A mountain burning with fire hitting the ocean is a fit description of a several kilometer-sized asteroid glowing as it enters Earth's atmosphere and then impacting the most likely place for it to hit: the ocean. Asteroids are sometimes described as ―mountains in space‖ by astronomers. The result of the impact described in verse 8 fits scientific models created at several universities in recent years.
28
According to studies conducted at the University of California, an asteroid of this size would be so hot by the time it hit the ocean that it would make a large part of the ocean water anoxic (oxygen deficient) by simply boiling the oxygen out of a large area of the sea. Sea temperature would rise dramatically and the hot water would kill billions of sea creatures in a very large radius. The warmed, anoxic water resulting from the impact would also provide a perfect environment for the growth of red algae or what is known as red tide. Here blood may be describing the appearance of red algae, which thrives in oxygen deficient water. However, turning waters to blood is a Hebraic figure of speech found in the Torah. John, the writer of Revelation was of course himself a Hebrew and well acquainted with the Torah. If you study Exodus 7:17, Psalm 78:44 and Psalm 105:29 you can see that in Hebrew ―turning waters to blood‖ is an idiom for turning waters deadly so that they are undrinkable and inhospitable to all marine life, rather than meaning the waters turn to literal red blood. The destruction of one third of the ships is explainable by the giant tsunamis created that would move for hundreds of miles in every direction until they strike the seaports of distant coasts.
3rd Trumpet — Waters Polluted From Wormwood's Debris Revelation 8:10-11 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water (11) the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters... Without knowledge of Planet X, this trumpet is very difficult to understand. We saw in the previous trumpet a very clear description of an asteroid entering Earth's atmosphere and falling into the sea. Here we have something that at first sounds like another impact, this time not in the ocean but on the land. Yet this is not described in the clearest manner it could be. Oddly, the great star is said to fall from the heavens upon ―the rivers and springs of water.‖ That cannot be describing a second asteroid hitting Earth because it is impossible for a single object to impact a third of all rivers and underground waters. It must be describing some other kind of interaction between this star and fresh water supplies. There is an important clue in the fact that this time it gives the object a name: ―Wormwood.‖ Previously we have seen shooting stars described which are not really stars at all, but small rocks that when burning up in Earth's atmosphere appear as the size and brightness of stars because of proximity. Then we saw a burning object so big that it appeared mountain-sized because it, too, lit up in our atmosphere before a clear impact. Yet this Wormwood star is different. Although it does not pass through Earth's atmosphere and make impact, it is still said to be a ―star blazing like a torch.‖ This sounds at last like a real illuminated star near our solar system. That conclusion is reinforced by it having a meaningful name, just as major bodies like stars, planets and comets are given. Some believe Planet X to be a brown dwarf (a small dim star), which would fit this description. So how does a passing star affect only the rivers and underground waters?
29
There are a few possibilities. One possibility is that passage through its wake would bring toxic substances like cyanide into our water supplies. Another is that the polar shift or crustal waves it causes break up the springs and dirty the rivers. Another possible explanation, as we saw recently with the Sumatra Earthquake, is that the sheer number of dead rotting bodies contaminate the waters. Therefore, by saying it ―falls on the springs and rivers,‖ it may be indicating that it influences or affects them not by direct contact. Wormwood (large debris from Planet X) can cause the eruption of Volcano‘s that will turn the dinking water into poison as the ashes fall and pollute into the rivers, springs and dams.
4th Trumpet — Sky Darkened From Fires, PX Debris, Volcanic Ash Revelation 8:12 Then the fourth angel sounded: And a third of the Sun was struck, a third of the Moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them were darkened. A third of the day did not shine, and likewise the night . Some take this trumpet to mean that after everything that has happened, the Earth will be spinning one third faster, thereby decreasing the shining of the day and night by one third. While it is certainly possible and likely that the movement of the Earth will be different after Planet X passes (even necessitating a new calendar—Dan 7:25), this is probably referring to something else. If a shorter day period is the intended meaning here, then there is no need to mention the light sources. It could simply have stated that the day was shorter, not that the day and night were darkened. Instead, the description goes to pains to list each possible source of light and how they all darken by the same amount. Therefore, the most logical explanation would be something in the air will be blocking the light then. Particulate in our atmosphere could obscure light in this way as cloud cover does. This particulate can come from several sources. The smoke of the worldwide grass and forest fires in the 1st trumpet alone would be enough to darken the skies, just as Kuwait's burning oil wells did during Operation Desert Storm. The material from Planet X's tail could contribute (as it seems to in causing the sky to depart like a scroll in the 6th seal, perhaps to a lesser degree days later). Finally, airborne ash from volcanic eruptions has historically darkened the skies and lowered global temperatures (possibly Yellowstone). Volcanism would be extremely heightened both from Planet X's gravity and from the 2nd trumpet impact on Earth. In its June 1989 edition, National Geographic featured an article entitled ―Extinctions‖ which detailed the findings of scientists studying the effects of ancient asteroid impacts. It predicts a darkened sky after an asteroid impact and worldwide fires, exactly as the 1st and 2nd trumpets portray. Giant meteorite strikes Earth, setting the planet afire. Earthquakes causes volcanoes erupt and tsunamis to crash into the continents. The sky grows dark with ash for months, perhaps years. Unable to cope with the catastrophic changes in climate, countless species are wiped off the face of the planet. The article poses that great fires resulting from an asteroid would destroy crops, trees and vegetation. Windstorms created by the fires would destroy buildings hundreds of miles from the impact. Dust and smoke spread by the jet stream would
30
block much of the Sun‘s light, thus altering the world‘s climate and the chances of human survival. To sum up, from the 6th seal to the 4th trumpet we had a pretty linear account of the direct effects (earthquakes, dust, meteor shower, impacts, fires, destruction) and possibly only secondary effects (waters poisoned, darkened skies) from Wormwood's near passage. Now just imagine how horrible things will be at this point. Once the smoke clears, no doubt everyone will have to come to grips with the fact that the world's infrastructure is in ruins. Probably billions homeless (if that many are still alive) thanks to the winds, fires, hail and quakes. The first 4 Trumpets will be as a result of the star called Wormwood that will cause natural disasters, but the 5th and 6th trumpets will result in Supernatural disasters that will come from demonic persecution. (See Section 8 on Transhumanism for details).
5th Trumpet — Star fall from Heaven – Bottomless Pit opened – Sun darkened for 5 months. Looking at the previous events due to Wormwood or Planet X; Major earthquakes destroyed buildings, cities and businesses, major tsunamis cases costal cities and towns to be destroyed like we saw on 11 March 2011 with the Japan 9.0 Earthquake. Chaos everywhere, people homeless and businesses destroyed. Next thing that will happen is the Government will send help to towns and cities to assist with rescue work and sending people to centres where they will be housed and fed. This will trigger another Global Financial Crisis due to the businesses and companies that will be affected and many will be without income. The American $ will crash and the United Nations will have the perfect opportunity to implement a new world trade currency and implement the New World Order. We read the following in the Book of Revelation when the Fifth Trumpet sounds: Rev 9:1-5 And the fifth angel sounded. And I saw a star fall from the heaven to the earth, and it was given the key of the abyss. (2) And it opened the bottomless pit. And there arose a smoke out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace. And the sun and air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit. (3) And out of the smoke came forth locusts onto the earth. And authority was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have authority. (4) And they were commanded not to hurt the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of YHVH in their foreheads. (5) And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months. And their torment was like a scorpion's torment when he stings a man. This is interesting to read and link it to the system that will be put in place that will rule the earth for 42 months. This System (NWO) will be head up by the Anti-Messiah or Antichrist as described in the following verse: (also read - Dan 12:11, Rev 11:2, Rev 12:14)
31
Rev 13:5 And a mouth speaking great things was given to it, and blasphemies. And authority was given to it to continue forty-two months. This will be during the 3,5 years of the Great Tribulation that will be the time of the rule of the Antichrist and the persecution of believers, forcing them to take the mark of the Beast.
What is this ―Star that fell from heaven ―that‖ or ―who‖ have the key of the Abyss or Bottomless Pit? Can it be Satan that is cast down? Rev_8:11 talks about the "STAR" whose name is Wormwood. This is a physical star that can be linked to Planet X that we talked about previously and that will happen due to the first 4 Trumpets. With Hebrew thought there is always a physical as well as a spiritual side to all things. This means that this ―star‖ can also be a spiritual star; namely Lucifer. He was the "star" that was cast out of heaven Rev_8:10-11, Rev_9:1, Isa_14:14-24. Rev 8:11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood, and a third part of the waters became wormwood. And many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
Looking at Rev 8:1 where Wormwood will fall and case bitterness in the waters gives us insight that Satan (the star) will have the same effect to the nations (waters), causing "bitterness" (wormwood) in the hearts of the people, stirring them up against YHVH and His Torah. This ―star‖ (Lucifer) will work through the spirit of the Anti-Messiah and will indwell the Anti-Messiah. This is the same spirit John warned us about. 1Jn_2:18-22 This is when the ―wormwood‖ in the people‘s hearts will cause many to be delivered and persecuted Mat_24:8-10 because of their hatred towards YHVH and His Word. Lucifer raised himself up to be as the Most High Elohim, YHVH the Creator, and he deceived all nations and caused destruction upon the earth (Isa_14:17). He will once again rise up against YHVH but only rule for 42 months during the Tribulation time. We read further in Rev 9 that Locusts will come out from the Bottomless pit and torture the people for 5 months. What are these locusts? According to the Book of Enoch, there is a Prophecy that the ―Nephiliem‖ or Fallen Angels that have been bound up under the mountains in the earth, that they will be released 70 generations after the Noah‘s Flood. Scientists estimate the event of the Flood to have happened back approximately 2900 BC. If you count 70 generations from there you can expect this to happen form 2008/2009. (can be out by couple of years). Read the section on Transhumanism. The ―powers to be‖ wants us to believe that these ―creatures‖ (fallen angels) are Aliens and that is why we are bombarded with ―Alien doctrines‖ taught in so many movies and media news reports so that people will automatically link these ―locusts‖ to Aliens and be friendly with them. The reality is that these ―locusts‖ are fallen angels that will be released from where they were bound by YHVH for so many years and they will be part of the end time judgments. We are taught by Hollywood to be friendly to Aliens because they are here to destroy the earth. If we are friendly with them and help them then we will be saved.

Hollywood created a new Saviour (Lucifer) that will rule his fallen Angels (―Aliens‖) and people will worship him and his Angels in order to be saved. What a better way to come as the Ani-Messiah and to take the place of the real Messiah (Y‘shua / Jesus), and cause the people to worship him and trust in him and his Angels for salvation. People will be misled because they will do supernatural (super – technological) things that will attract the masses (fleshly – looking for miracles) to trust and worship him and his angels (aliens). Rev 13:11-13 And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. And it had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon. (12) And it exercises all the authority of the first beast before him, and causes the earth and those dwelling in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. (13) And it does great wonders, so that it makes fire come down from the heaven onto the earth in the sight of men. Another Second Beast came up from the earth that have two horns like a lamb (AntiMessiah – he will look like the Messiah) but spoke like the Dragon (Satan). It had all the authority (power to rule and control) of the First Beast (America / NOW System) and caused everybody on the earth to worship the First Beast (America / Economic System / New World Government) This Second Beast (Lucifer / Fallen Angels / AntiMessiah) did great signs and wonders and made fire come down from heaven to deceive even the elect.
The deadly would that was healed can be relating to America‘s ―setback‖ due to the first 4 Trumpets and the affects of the Plant X passing our Planet. This can result in the eruption of Yellow Stone Super Volcano casing the destruction of at least half of North America, as we know it today.
Scientists predict that it can affect a 1000-mile radius surrounding Yellow Stone Volcano and the smoke, dust and ashes will have serious consequences to millions of people‘s lives and their economy. 2/3‘s of the world economy is driven by America and a disaster like this will definitely cause a greater Global Financial Crisis that will affect everybody on the earth and make then very vulnerable to be
33
controlled by this newfound Government System (Rule of Antichrist for 42 months). People will be desperate and accept any help from any body and even seel their souls for food to feed their families, even receive the mark of the Beast. How will this wound heal? By the implementation of a new world trade currency and implementing the New World Order to rule the earth through this time of chaos. America will receive help form all over the world but under dictation of the NOW and the ruling of the Antichrist (world leader indwelled by Lucifer). There will be 5 months of darkness and this may be the result of Yellowstone (and other volcanos) eruptions and during this time Lucifer will release his army (locusts / aliens / fallen angels) to torture man to make them submit to his power and rule.
Warning..... Some of the sites carrying information about Planet X are promoting the New Age movement, Humanism, various cults, Occultism, etc. They are taking advantage of the coming of Planet X to promote their own deceptive agenda. There is also a website called "Zeta" that should be avoided. It appears to be a front for government propaganda, and is dispensing a lot of disinformation, trying to make the whole subject of Planet X look like a three ring circus. Beware! They have valuable information but will drag people into their faith as they expose the truth about the events. On the other hand, there are websites that are reliable, responsible, and dedicated to informing the public about the coming of Planet X and the danger it poses for all mankind. I have received much of my information about Planet X from reports issued by Dr. James McCanney. Dr. McCanney is an Astrophysicist that is known and respected in the scientific community throughout the world. He graduated from St. Mary's University in 1970 with a double degree in Physics and Mathematics. He obtained his Masters Degree from Tulane University in 1973 in Nuclear and Solid State Physics. In 1979 he joined the faculty of Cornell University as an instructor in Physics. For several years he served in a consulting capacity to NASA. He also provided copies of his scientific publications dealing with "the electrical nature of the cosmos" to fellow scientists connected with the Russian government. A number of his studies on planetary electromagnetism have been published in scientific journals around the world. He has written at least one book (probably more) that I am aware of on the subject of "The Electromagnetic Componet Of The Solar System." He has also written a 60 page manual for the public on how to prepare for the coming of Planet X. Dr. McCanney has known about the coming of Planet X for several years, but while he was obligated to NASA and other government funded institutions, he was sworn to absolute secrecy. Dr. McCanney no longer has any ties to NASA or other government agencies, and he is now "blowing the whistle" on the government coverup. As far as I know Dr. McCanney is not a Christian. He does not appear to write from a Christian perspective. Yet he is so concerned about the danger to the public, that he has a daily radio broadcast and a website dispensing information about Planet X. I don't know where a person could be found that is more knowledgeable, qualified, and reliable, to speak about Planet X than Dr. James McCanney. Those who choose to ignore his warnings will do so to their own hurt.
34
I also receive information from Mark Hazlewood, author of "Blindsided," a book about the coming of Planet X. Mr. Hazlewood keeps up with Planet X on a daily basis, and is in contact with other Planet X researchers. His information has proven to be highly reliable. There are other websites that also carry reliable information on Planet X. The sources mentioned here should be sufficient to convince our readers that Planet X is not just a figment of my overactive imagination. Planet X is real! Its coming is being predicted by some of the top scientific minds living today. The effects of it will soon be knocking at your door. Are you ready?

What can we expect? According to the Astronomers, Astrophysicists, Cosmologists, Geologists, Meteorologists, and various others scientists that are seriously studying the coming of Planet X.....
Solar Flares - The Sun..... Planet X is already having a tremendous effect on the Sun. Astronomers and scientists began keeping a record of solar flares (explosions...Coronal Mass Ejections) on the Sun in the 1700's. Over a period of time it became obvious that solar flares reach a maximum every eleven years. Once the peak is reached, then solar flares decline for approximately five and a half years. The next five and a half years they increase until they peak again in the eleventh year. This eleven year cycle has been going on ever since men of science began keeping records of their observations. But something has changed..... The last eleven year peak was reached in 2000. After 2000 scientists fully expected solar flares to decline, just as they always have done in the past. But they didn't! Instead, they have steadily increased in both frequency and intensity. The largest solar flares ever recorded have occurred since the eleven year peak in 2000 and the next solar flare will be 2011/12 with a very great magnitude that will have serious implications of the earth. When the solar cycle reaches its peak in 2012, it will hurl at Earth mammoth solar storms with intense radiation and clouds of highspeed subatomic particles millions of miles across, the scientists said. A storm of that magnitude could short-circuit a world increasingly dependent on giant utilities and satellite communications networks. Such a storm in 1989 caused power grids to collapse, causing a five-hour blackout in Quebec. The solar storms in the past have knocked out huge power grids and damaged up global electronics and data communications, but "the next sunspot cycle will be 30 to 50 percent stronger than the last one," the scientists said in Monday's statement. Reaching that 50 percent threshold would make it the most intense solar cycle since the late 1950s and the second worst since the early 1700s, Peter Gilman, one of the researchers, said in a phone interview. Shields of the Earth Psalm 49:9: ―FOR THE SHIELDS OF THE EARTH BELONG TO ELOHIM; HE SHALL BE GREATLY EXALTED‖. There are shields of the earth that YHVH (the LORD) set in place at the Creation, and there are personal shields that are available to us, if we qualify for them.

Earth's magnetic field, which shields our planet from particles streaming outward from the Sun, often develops two holes that allow large leaks.

Earth's magnetic field, which shields our planet from severe space weather, often develops two holes when the solar wind's magnetic field points North that allow the largest leaks of solar particles. Credit: NASA CI Lab/Walt Feimerargest leaks, according to researchers sponsored by NASA and the National Science Foundation. NASA says they expect more severe storms in the next upcoming solar cycle (2012). ―Earth‘s magnetic field acts like a shield against the bombardment of particles continually streaming from the sun. Because the solar particles (ion and electron) are electronically charged, they fuel magnetic forces and most are deflected by our planet‘s magnetic field. However, our magnetic field is a leaky shield…leading to more solar particles inside the shield.‖ A researcher said: ―It‘s as if people know there is a crack in the levy, but they didn‘t know how much flooding it caused‖. The holes form over the daylit side of the earth on the side of the magnetic shield facing the sun‖. From: www.christianparents.com -- August 27, 1998 WASHINGTON (Reuters) – ―Solar winds blowing at more than a million miles per hour hit the Earth's magnetic field on Wednesday, sparking what U.S. government scientists say could be a significant geomagnetic storm. The U.S. Geological Survey said charged particles from a solar eruption hit the Earth's magnetic field around 3 a.m. EDT (0700 GMT) and the resulting fluctuations in the field could cause power outages, satellite failures, disruption in communications and the aurora borealis. Auroras are usually seen only in northern latitudes, but may become visible in the continental United States during this geomagnetic storm, the agency said. A severe magnetic storm in March 1989 caused the collapse of the Hydro-Quebec power system in Canada, leaving about six million people without power. The U.S. Geological Survey operates 13 magnetic observatories throughout the United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and Puerto Rico that continuously monitor the Earth's magnetic field.‖ ―The editor of this web site has been praying for the shields of the earth since first being impressed with Psalm 47:9 in the early seventies. I suggest you take it to heart. Genesis explained by Dr. Kent Hovind shows how the canopy of water around the earth before the flood in the days of Noah was an additional protection from cosmic radiation. There is much reference in the scriptures to the earth having shields. God's word is true. Let us all take heed and take His word to heart. We need to have a love of the truth. God's word is true.‖ YHVH (the LORD) set certain things in place to protect His Creation, like shields that protect us from being burned up by the sun, or hit by meteors, comets, exploding stars, rogue planets, and other things that would destroy us. He, Himself, has been our shield against forces in the heavens. But let us look at why He is ―lowering‖ the shields, letting them wane and even taking them away in part.

NASA, physicists, other scientists, and the world‘s elite, know that we are facing things from space that we‘ve never faced before. NASA has informed us of the pole shift or pole reversal that is coming between 2009 and 2012. They have told us about the sun passing through our galaxy for the first time in history. They have told us about the new cycle of the sun in 2012 that will begin with great solar flares. In fact, the elite of the earth know what is coming so well, that they have built great underground vaults to protect themselves. I have written about these things in ―Pole Shift‖ and ―What Are the Elite Doing To Prepare Their Ark?‖ The trumpet judgments were released to go forward on September 12, 2007-Jerusalem at sunset, beginning Yom Teruah. This time began the Shmittah Year that began the countdown seven years before Messiah comes. For more study on this timing, see ―The Shmittah Year Prophecy‖, ―The Forty-Eight Hour Transition‖ and ―The September 12, 2007 Report From Jerusalem‖, and ―Pole Shift‖. As of September 29, 2008, we entered the first year of the last seven years before Messiah Yahushua returns and sets up His Kingdom on earth. All of the events of the last seven-year period have now been set in play. Scientists of different types are referring to what is coming, using Revelation 8:7-12 as an example. These are secular people. We know that the Word is full of the description of the effects of a pole shift, like Isaiah 13:6-12, Isaiah 24, and Jeremiah 4:25-28. But, it is fascinating that seculars are seeing what is coming as part of the trumpet judgments of YHVH (the LORD). In order for the trumpet judgments to happen, He has to lower the shields of the earth, and allow the magnetic field to come down. Man (particularly Russia and America) is playing with the magnetic field by using scalar waves, particle beam weapons, and other powerful lazer-type weaponry from space, to pierce even to the core of the earth, and set off tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanoes, hurricanes, cyclones, and other great storms. The seas are indeed roaring, as Luke 2125-26 says, because these powerful beams are disturbing our magnetic field and even the sea is resounding from their piercing. Russia and America have made a pact to melt the ice caps of the North Pole, and parts of the South Pole, to get at the ―treasures‖ underneath—like oil and gold. Before the great Flood judgment during Noah‘s time, technology was as high, or higher, than we have today. (Genesis 6-8) YHVH (the LORD) had to destroy mankind for his ―playing god‖—like the mixing of the DNA of animals, planets, reptiles and insects with human beings, producing creatures beyond our imagination, as well as demons who co-inhabited with human women and produced a human-demon mix called ―Nephilim‖. The Book of Enoch tells us a lot about this in detail. But today, major world colleges are teaching the ―science‘ of a post-human era—transgenics or transhumanism. To learn more about these plans for human kind, read the article: ―Eugenics: The Planned End of Mankind‖. This is real stuff, not sci-fi at all. Before the Flood, the oxygen content of the earth was such that man could run 200 miles without stopping and not be tired, wounds healed up almost instantly, and man could live upwards to 1,000 years of age. There was a global temperature of about 72 degrees Fahrenheit—no icy poles, no snow, and no rain. The earth was watered by mist/dew that came up on the earth. But, because of man‘s sins, YHVH (the LORD) had to remove some of the shields of the earth, like the water canapé over the earth. The blasting of the water canapé shield around the earth resulted in a lower oxygen level for one thing, but also the breaking up of ―the fountains of the deep‖ created a pole shift that rolled earth on its side, and produced ice caps on both new poles.
38
This is why the neo-Nazis and America, the Chinese and other nations, are on the south pole melting the ice caps to find the ruins of Nephilim (Giants) civilizations— pre-Flood civilizations—to obtain their technology and get DNA samples from skeletal remains so as to clone bodies for the creatures that the Pentagon and other groups are now producing, as well as to clone bodies for the spirits of the Nephilim which have been released in these last days from the pit. Scientists are also on the South Pole with infrared light to pick up the approaching ―Planet X‖—the tenth planet, or brown dwarf star, which is coming in towards our south pole, to make its path around the sun. This rogue burned out brown dwarf star/planet object is huge. It has the potential of pulling us into a pole shift, or pole reversal, either on its first pass, scientists say in 2009, or its second pass after going around the sun in 2012. But, no matter what the sun does to us as it passes through the galaxy in 2012, or what Planet X might do to us, at the coming of Messiah Yahushua (Jesus), He will turn the planet back into its original Creation orbit, and we will go back to the conditions before the Flood. For example, In Isaiah 65:18-20 we see that in the Kingdom, a child will die at a hundred. Dr. Carl Baugh of the Creation Science Museum in Glen Rose, Texas, did a documentary back in the 1980s for NBC, showing the canapé of the earth‘s damage from the Flood, and how it will be restored in the Kingdom of Messiah. There are holes in the ―ozone layer‖ that are allowing huge amounts of radiation through into the earth, especially over the south Pacific. Father had a good system of shielding us from the sun‘s detrimental rays, and from space objects hitting us, but man lowered the shields by his own rebellion against YHVH, allowing Lucifer and sin to come into the earth, bringing YHVH‘s (the LORD) judgment.
Recent Solar Activity Earth is entering a stream of solar wind By chillymanjaro
– March 23, 2011Posted in: Solar Watch
Earth is entering a stream of solar wind blowing ~500 km/s, and the encounter is stirring up geomagnetic activity around the Arctic Circle. The solar wind data (velocity and proton density) presented on spaceweather.com are updated every 10 minutes. They are derived from real-time information transmitted to Earth from the ACE spacecraft and reported by the NOAA Space Environment Center. The location of ACE at the L1 libration point between the earth and the sun enables the spacecraft to give about a one hour advance warning of impending geomagnetic activity. The Sun–Earth L1 is suited for making observations of the Sun. Objects here are never shadowed by the Earth or the Moon. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) is stationed in a Halo orbit at L1, and the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) is in a Lissajous orbit, also at the L1 point. WIND is also at L1.

What is happening? Dr. McCanney and other Planet X researchers are convinced that the increase in solar activity is due to the electromagnetic field of Planet X interacting with the electromagnetic field of the Sun. As Planet X comes closer, it is expected that solar flares on the Sun will continue to increase in frequency and intensity. Many centuries ago, God inspired the prophet Isaiah to write: Isaiah 30:26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord binds up the breach of His people, and heals the stroke of their wound. It is an established fact that the Moon has no light of its own, but is rather a reflector of the light of the Sun. But the Sun only gives off light according to the amount of heat being produced by its nuclear fusion electromagnetic generator. Therefore, when the light reflected by the Moon becomes as bright as the light of the Sun is today, and the light of the Sun increases sevenfold, consider the "heat" effect it will have on Earth and its inhabitants. Read Revelation 8:7 and 16:8-9 and believe. References: Nasa warns of super Solar Storm in 2012 Huge solar storms could zap Earth, scientists warn Earth is entering a stream of solar wind
The Earth Changing..... Planet X is also already effecting the Earth. The effects of it were recognized by planetary scientists as far back as 1995. Its magnetic field had probably began to effect Earth even earlier. Remember "El Nino" and the 500 year floods of 1993? Weather patterns have changed dramatically, producing "strange" weather. Climatic conditions are changing. The polar ice caps and mountain glaciers are melting. It has been revealed that in 1995 a worldwide "disinformation" campaign was launched by government "insiders," blaming the strange weather patterns on "Global Warming." But a number of highly respected scientists, who were not in on the "coverup," rejected totally the theory of "global warming." Rather, they [rightly] pointed out that the polar ice caps and mountain glaciers are melting from underneath, not from the surface. Why? Due to the approach of Planet X, solar flares are increasing on the Sun. The Sun is ejecting massive amounts of electromagnetic energy into space. Some of this electromagnetic energy is being attracted and absorbed by Earth's magnetic core, causing the molten iron core of Earth to heat up. The increased heat from Earth's core is filtering through the mantle of Earth to the surface, causing the melting of the ice caps and glaciers from beneath.
40
There is no "global warming" being caused by household sprays and fossil fuels, and never has been. Such a claim is disinformation put out by those involved in the coverup. A recent news release revealed that there is now somewhere between 20 and 200 feet of water under the polar ice caps. This amount of water under the ice caps serves as a lubricant, and in the event of a major earthquake and polar shift, could cause the ice caps to suddenly slide into the ocean. When that happens, it will cause massive tidal waves that will wash over whole continents. In Psalm 46:2-3 we read, "Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed [out of orbit], and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar [Luke 21:25] and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof." In Amos 5:6-8 Israel is urged to ―Seek YHVH, and you shall live; lest He break out like a fire on the house of Joseph and devour it, and there be none to put it out in Bethel. (7) You who turn judgment to wormwood and leave off righteousness in the earth, (8) seek Him who created the Pleiades and Orion, and who turned the deep darkness into the morning and He darkened the day into night. Seek Him who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth; YHVH is His name;‖ "Seek Him that makes the seven stars and Orion, and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night that calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the face of the earth YHVH is His name." This is repeated a second time in Amos 96. It clearly predicts that tidal waves are going to sweep across the continents, or parts of them, during the coming Tribulation. Read also Habakkuk 310, carefully noticing the context. Are you beginning to see the picture? Are you getting the message?
The Solar System.....
41
Psalm 102:25-26 distinctly states that "the heavens" and "the earth" are going to be "changed." This is exactly what planetary scientists are predicting is going to happen as Planet X passes through the solar system. Planet X is not alone! It has its own moons orbiting it and a long tail behind it that stretches out millions of miles across space. Because of the tremendous size of Planet X, the force of its electromagnetic field, and the huge amount and long trail of space debris that is accompanying it, Dr. McCanney and other planetary scientists are expecting it to cause great destruction and "change" as it passes through our solar system. Isn't this exactly what Psalm 102:25-26 predicts? You know it is! Isaiah 5:16 also predicts that "the heavens shall vanish away like smoke." When Planet X comes flying through our solar system, it will pass between Earth and Mercury, passing closer to Mercury than Earth. Mercury is a very small planet. Because of the tremendous size of Planet X and the power of its magnetic core, planetary scientists are expecting Mercury to literally explode, and the debris of it to be drawn into the tail of Planet X. Just as the Scripture says, Mercury is expected to "vanish away like smoke." This same thing may also happen to one or more of the other planets in the solar system, depending on how close they are drawn to Planet X as it passes.
The Coming..... Planet X is coming into our solar system from almost directly beneath the south pole of Earth. This position is considered a "blind spot" by astronomers. This explains why Planet X is not already visible in the night sky. But very shortly it will rise high enough in the sky, from our perspective on Earth, to become visible. It can already be seen by the huge telescopes in various observatories around the world. It is expected that by 2010. it will be visible to amateur astronomers using good telescopes or powerful binoculars. (As previously discussed)
What can we expect in the Future: Revelation 16:8-9a: ―And the fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun and it was given to him to scorch men with fire, and men were burned with great heat and they blasphemed the name of Elohim…‖ Revelation 8:7-12 describes trumpet judgments 1-4. The first one could well be volcanic eruption, but the other three are meteors or something like Planet X. YHVH says He will shake the earth and the heavens, and that few men will be left alive. Refer to the study sheets: ―All Flesh‖ and ―No Flesh Saved But a Remnant‖. Messiah says that if the days of His wrath were not shortened, no flesh would survive. I say that trumpet judgment #1 could be volcanic eruption because it talks about ―hail‖ that comes onto the earth and burns up 1/3 of all trees and all grass. Right now, because of man‘s playing god with his scalar weaponry, the volcanoes are very volatile. There are 500 on the Pacific rim, with 1,100 on the floor of the Pacific ocean, and a chain of volcanoes in the Atlantic, besides all the other ones in Asia, Greece, and the Islands. In geological language ―hail‖ means the huge rocks spewed into the air as the volcano erupts. Revelation 16:21, as part of YHVH‘s bowls of wrath: ―And there fell upon man a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent‖. The weight of a talent is about 100 pounds. However, we see that trumpet judgments 2-4 are definitely a meteor, a comet, or a rogue dwarf star…as in Planet X. Scientists like Dr. Jason Rand in his book ―The Return of Planet X‖ (it has crossed earth‘s path before) refer to Planet X as the ―Wormwood‖ of Revelation 8:10-11.

5. The Wars of the End Times How many and when will they happen? by Dr. David R. Reagan
Every time a war breaks out in the Middle East, I receive a flurry of phone calls and email messages asking if it could be the War of Armageddon. This question is prompted by the fact that most people are familiar with only one end time war — the one that has been popularized in movies and novels as the "Battle of Armageddon." The concept comes from the book of Revelation where it says that armies will gather in the end times at a place "which in Hebrew is called HarMagedon" (Revelation 16:16). This term literally means the Mount of Megiddo and refers to the ancient fortress of Megiddo that controlled the Valley of Jezreel. In English the word was transliterated as Armageddon, and the term came to be applied to the Valley of Jezreel which lies in front of HarMagedon, running diagonally across Israel from Haifa to the Jordan River.
Most people are surprised to discover that there is no reference in the book of Revelation, or any other place in the Bible to the "Valley of Armageddon," nor is there any reference to the "Battle of Armageddon" — but more about that later. People are even more surprised to learn that Bible prophecy reveals nine wars in the end times and that Armageddon relates to only one of these.
The Next Prophetic War Most prophetic scholars have long believed that the next great end time war will be the War of Gog & Magog that is described in Ezekiel 38 and 39. This, for example is the stated position of Joel Rosenberg in his popular book, Epicenter. This war will start when Russia invades Israel with certain specified allies, all of whom are Muslim nations today.
43
But I seriously doubt that the conflict described in Ezekiel 38 and 39 will be the next war of end time Bible prophecy. There are two reasons why I feel this way. First, there is a condition for the war of Ezekiel 38 and 39 that has not been met. Three times in Ezekiel 38 — in verses 8, 11, and 14 — it states that the war described in that chapter will not occur until the people of Israel are living "securely" in "unwalled villages." Israel is not living in security today. It is bombarded daily by missiles from Gaza, and it is constantly under the threat of missile attacks from Hezbollah in Lebanon. There is also the ever present threat of terrorist attacks, a threat that has forced Israel to construct a 400 mile long wall down the center of the country. In short, it is laughable today to even think of the Jewish people of Israel as living"securely" in "unwalled villages." The second reason I doubt that the war of Ezekiel 38 and 39 will be the next end time war of Bible prophecy is because the nations mentioned in Ezekiel 38:5-6 as the allies of Russia do not include a single Arab state with a border adjacent to Israel. The nations identified are Persia (Iran), Cush (most likely modern day Sudan), Put (Libya and possibly Algeria and Tunisia), and two regions that lie within modern day Turkey (Gomer and Bethtogarmah). There is no mention of the nations that share a common border with Israel — namely, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and Gaza.
44
Why are the nations located next to Israel not mentioned as allies of Russia? I believe the best explanation of this mystery is the one supplied by Bill Salus in his book, Isralestine. He proposes that the next end time prophetic war will be the one described in Psalm 83, a war between Israel and its neighbors. He believes this war will produce the conditions that are necessary for the war of Ezekiel 38 and 39, and I agree with that conclusion.With that point clarified, let's now take an overview of the end time prophetic wars in their likely chronological sequence.
1) The War of Extermination — Psalm 83 The psalm states that the immediate neighbors of Israel will launch a war for the purpose of "wiping out Israel as a nation" (verse 4). The nations described as being a part of this nefarious effort are those with a common border with Israel today (verses 6-8). The rest of the psalm is a prayer for the victory of Israel (verses 9-18). The outcome of the war is not stated, but we know from other scriptures that Israel will be victorious. For example, in Zechariah 12:6 we are told that in the end times Israel will be like "a firepot among pieces of wood and a
flaming torch among sheaves, so they will consume on the right hand and on the left all the surrounding peoples..." Also, in Amos 9:15 we are told that once the Jews are re-established in their land, "they will not again be rooted out from their land."
Bill Salus believes this war will result in an overwhelming victory for Israel, resulting in great territorial expansion and enhanced national resources. It will also produce the security spoken of in Ezekiel 38.
2) The First War of Gog & Magog — Ezekiel 38 and 39 But the security provided by the Psalm 83 war will not last long. The Arab nations will turn to their natural ally, Russia, and cry out for help. And the Russians will be very happy to respond, for they have always dreamed of taking the oil fields of the Middle East. They will, therefore, launch an invasion for the stated purpose of helping the Muslims destroy Israel, but their unstated agenda will be to use the Arab invitation as an excuse to expand their sovereignty over all the Middle East. This ulterior motive is described in Ezekiel 38:12 where it says the Russians will come "to
capture spoil and to seize plunder."
The invading armies will be supernaturally destroyed by God "on the mountains of Israel" (Ezekiel 39:4). The Lord will accomplish this destruction through earthquakes, pestilence, hail storms, fire, brimstone, and battlefield confusion (Ezekiel 38:19-22). Even the Jewish people will recognize that the
45
victory belongs to the Lord, and many will open their hearts to the Lord (Ezekiel 38:23). In fact, this event could mark the occasion when the 144,000 Jews of Revelation 7:1-8 accept Yeshua as their Messiah and are sealed by the Lord for special service throughout the seven year period of the Tribulation. The greatest mystery concerning this war is its timing. Most have placed it at the beginning of the Tribulation. Others delay its start to the middle of the Tribulation. Increasingly in recent years, the tendency has been to place it before the beginning of the Tribulation. The best discussion of timing that has yet been written can be found in Ron Rhodes' book, Northern Storm Rising. He concludes that it is most likely to occur 3 1/2 years prior to the Tribulation. One of his most important reasons for this conclusion is that Ezekiel 39:9 says the Jews will spend seven years burning the weapons captured in the war, and the book of Revelation says they will be run out of the land in the middle of the Tribulation (Revelation 12:13-17). Since the middle of the Tribulation will occur 3 1/2 years into that seven year period, that means the only way the Jews could spend seven years burning the weapons is for the war to start at least 3 1/2 years before the Tribulation begins. (Note: The "burning of weapons" could refer to captured nuclear fuel.) Does this mean the wars of Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38 and 39 must occur before the Rapture? Not at all. The Rapture could occur anytime before, during, or after these wars. Keep in mind that the Rapture is not what marks the beginning of the Tribulation. The Tribulation will begin when the Antichrist signs a security treaty with Israel (Daniel 9:27). There could be a period of several years between the Rapture and the beginning of the Tribulation.
3) The Conventional War of the Tribulation — Rev 6 The book of Revelation states that a major world war will break out soon after the Tribulation begins. This war is described in Revelation 6.

Although the Antichrist will rise to world power in Europe through cunning, deception, and intrigue (Daniel 8:23), he will have to resort to military power to conquer the world. Asia, Africa, and South America have spent too long casting off the shackles of European colonialism for them to suddenly surrender their sovereignty peacefully to a new European dictator — regardless of how brilliant and charismatic he may be. We are told in Revelation 13:7 that the Antichrist will ultimately achieve "authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation." This authority will be achieved through war. Revelation 6 records the outbreak of this world war. It results in the death of one-fourth of humanity, or 1.5 billion in today's terms (Revelation 6:8). The War of Psalm 83 results in the destruction of the inner ring of Muslim states around Israel. The War of Ezekiel 38 and 39 produces the defeat of the immediate outer ring of Muslim states. But the vast majority of all Muslims live outside the Middle East, the largest Muslim nations being Indonesia (201 million), India (144 million), Pakistan (140 million), and Bangladesh (115 million). These nations are the ones who are most likely to produce the strongest resistance to a Western, non-Muslim dictator, and they will be destroyed either in this war or the one that follows it. In other words, I believe God is going to use the Antichrist as His hammer of wrath to destroy Islam. But many other nations in the world will also have to be subdued, and that leads us to the next war of the end times.
47
4) The Nuclear War of the Tribulation — Revelation 8 & 9 At some point, the book of Revelation indicates that the conventional war will morph into a nuclear holocaust, resulting in the deaths of another one-third of Mankind, or another 1.5 billion people (Revelation 9:15). This means that in the first two wars of the Tribulation, more than one half of humanity will die. A hint that the conventional war will become a nuclear one is found in Revelation 8:7 where it states that the escalation of the war will result in one-third of the earth being burned up. Another hint is found in Revelation 16:2-11 where we are told that "loathsome and malignant" sores will afflict people at the end of the Tribulation, something that would be a natural consequence of radiation from the use of nuclear weapons. It could very well be that this nuclear holocaust could be what Jesus had in mind when He stated that in the end times men will faint from fear over the expectation of the things coming upon the world, "for the powers of the heavens will be shaken" (Luke 21:26). This war is portrayed in the book of Revelation in chapters 8-9 as a series of "Trumpet Judgments."
5) The War in the Heavens — Revelation 12 The next end time war is totally different in nature from all the rest. It is a supernatural one that will occur in the heavens in the middle of the Tribulation. It is most likely prompted by an attempt of Satan to once again take the throne of God.
Satan and his angels are opposed in this war by Michael and his angels. Michael is an archangel who is pictured in the Hebrew Scriptures as the
48
commander-in-chief of the armies of God (Daniel 10:13, 21 and 12:1). Michael and his angels prevail in this war, and Satan is cast down to earth. His access to God's throne is cut off (Revelation 12:9-10). When this happens, Satan realizes that his time is short because he knows Bible prophecy (Revelation 12:12). In his rage, Satan decides to destroy the Jewish people, and this decision leads to the next war.
6) The War Against the Jews and the Saints — Rev 12 Satan hates the Jews with a passion for several reasons: 1. 2. 3. 4.
They are the Chosen People of God. God used them to provide the Scriptures to the world. It was through them that the Messiah came. God has promised that He will bring a great remnant of them to faith in His Son at the end of the Tribulation.
There is going to be another holocaust during the latter half of the Tribulation. When Satan is cast down to earth, he will possess the Antichrist (Revelation 13:2) and inspire him to annihilate all the Jews. This is the reason that Jesus referred to the last half of the Tribulation as "the great tribulation" (Matthew 24:21) — not because this half will be worse than the first half, but because the wrath of Satan will be focused on the Jews. Some of the Jews of Israel will flee to a place in the "wilderness" where they will be supernaturally protected by God (Revelation 12:13-14). Many believe this hiding place will be the ancient city of Petra, located inside a box canyon in modern Jordan. There is good reason for this assumption because Daniel 11:41 says the Antichrist will be prevented from conquering Jordan when it is part of an end time rebellion. But Zechariah 13:8 indicates that two-thirds of the Jewish people will be killed by the Antichrist during this time, and Revelation 12:17 says the Antichrist will also war against the "offspring" of Israel — namely, those "who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus." I believe this is a reference to all those who accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior during the Tribulation, both Jews and Gentiles. It is no wonder that Revelation 7:9-14 pictures a great multitude of martyrs in Heaven, so great that it cannot be counted. They are identified as "the ones
who are coming out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb" (Revelation 7:14).
So the Antichrist will be very successful in his war against the Jews and the Saints, but he will fail in his ultimate goal of annihilating all the Jews. For we are told repeatedly throughout the Scriptures that a great remnant of the Jews will live to the end of the Tribulation at which time they will receive
49
Yeshua as their Messiah. (See: Isaiah 10:20-23; Zechariah 12:10; Romans 9:27-28; and Romans 11:25-26.)
7) The Middle East Campaign of the Antichrist — Daniel 11 Daniel 11:40-45 describes a military campaign of the Antichrist in the Middle East that occurs at the end of the Tribulation. These verses and related verses in Revelation could very well indicate that when the Antichrist becomes insanely obsessed with destroying the Jews and the Saints, the nations of the world will see an opportunity to rebel against him. The nations in the Middle East will be led by the "king of the North" (most likely Syria) and the "king of the South" (Egypt). The Antichrist responds by invading"the Beautiful Land" and subduing all the area except Jordan. But just as he seems to be completely victorious, he hears "rumors from the East and from the North" that deeply disturb him. He retreats with his armies to the area "between the seas" where"he will come to his end." The geographical description here of a location between the Mediterranean Sea and the Sea of Galilee corresponds to the Valley of Armageddon. I believe the rumors that frighten him are, in part, the news that "the kings from the East"(Revelation 16:12) who are bringing huge armies from Asia have arrived at the Euphrates River and are ready to cross into Israel to challenge him. The rumors from the North could relate to a reconstituted rebellious army from Russia.
8) The Battle of Armageddon — Joel 3, Zechariah 14, and Revelation 19 It appears that just as the armies from the East and the North start arriving in the Valley of Armageddon to challenge the Antichrist, the Lord breaks from the heavens, returns to the Mount of Olives, speaks a supernatural word, and all the armies are instantly destroyed. In other words, there really is no such thing as the "Battle of Armageddon." The armies are assembled to do battle, but the Lord annihilates all of them in a microsecond "with the breath of His mouth" (2 Thessalonians 2:8). Joel 3:16 says the Lord will "roar from Zion" and "utter His voice from Jerusalem." Isaiah 10:16 says the result will be "a wasting disease." Zechariah 14:12 says it will be a plague that will cause the flesh of the soldiers "to rot while they stand on their feet." 50
Their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths. It will be like the explosion of a neutron bomb.
9) The Second Battle of Gog & Magog — Revelation 20 Mercifully and joyfully, the "battle" of Armageddon will be followed by one thousand years of peace as the reign of Jesus from Jerusalem results in the world being filled with righteousness and justice (Isaiah 11:4-5,9). Swords will be beat into plowshares and spears into pruning hooks, and "nation will not lift up sword against nation..." (Isaiah 2:4). All the money that is spent today on armaments will be spent on agricultural implements. The world will be flooded with agricultural abundance (Amos 9:13). There will be no homeless or hungry people. Every man will have his own vineyard and orchard (Micah 4:4). Satan will be bound (Revelation 20:1-3). Sin and crime will be greatly reduced. But there will be seething rebellion in the hearts of many, if not most, that are born during that time. This is hard for most people to understand. Why would there be resentment in the hearts of people in the midst of such a perfect reign of Jesus? The initial population of the Millennium will be all those, both Jew and Gentile, who live to the end of the Tribulation and who have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. All others will be consigned to death when the Lord returns. So, the Millennium will begin with only believers. But they will begin to propagate, and since death will be curtailed and life spans will be greatly extended (Isaiah 65:20), the population of the world will grow exponentially. Those born during this time will still have the old sin nature. They will desire all the things of the flesh — booze, drugs, gambling, and promiscuous sex. But they will see that any violation of the Law of God results in swift and certain justice. Immediate arrest will be followed by an immediate trial and an immediate judgment. There will be no appeal, for all judges will be Saints in glorified bodies who will make perfect decisions. So, the average person in the flesh will say, "I love you Jesus!" but he or she will do so with clinched teeth. The Bible states repeatedly that Jesus will rule with "a rod of iron" (Psalm 2:9 and Revelation 2:26-27). And despite the fact that His reign will produce righteousness, fairness, and perfect justice (Isaiah 11:4-5), most of those living in the flesh will deeply resent the fact that they cannot freely pursue their worldly lusts. It is no wonder that when Satan is released at the end of the Lord's millennial reign (Revelation 20:7), the majority of those in the flesh will unite in one last rebellion against God that is pictured inRevelation 20:7-9.
51
Led once again by Gog & Magog, this war is often confused with the war of Ezekiel 38 and 39. But the two are very different. The Ezekiel war pictures Russia coming against the nation of Israel with certain specified allies. In Revelation 20 Russia is portrayed as leading all the nations of the world against Jesus Christ. History is going to end as it began. It started out with two people living in a perfect society, but deciding to rebel against their Creator. It ends with all of humanity living in a perfect society, and the majority making the same decision to rebel against God. One of the many purposes of the Millennium is for God to prove that Mankind's inherent sin defect can be remedied only by the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior. The religion of Satan has always been Humanism — the belief in Man. This philosophy teaches that Man is inherently good and is capable of perfection through education and social justice. Humanists therefore believe that if society can be perfected by supplying each person with a guaranteed job and income, Mankind will be transformed. But the Bible teaches that Mankind is fatally flawed with a sin nature that makes people naturally evil (Jeremiah 17:9). And the Bible teaches that the only solution to the problem is the transformation of the Holy Spirit that begins when a person accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior. God will prove this beyond doubt when He puts all of Mankind into a perfect society for one thousand years and Mankind responds in rebellion.
The Abolition of War The Second War of Gog & Magog will be the final war of history. Following it, God will take the Redeemed off the earth and place them in the New Jerusalem He is now preparing. He will then consume the earth with fire to burn away the pollution of Satan's last revolt. Out of that fiery inferno will come new heavens and a new earth — this earth redeemed and perfected (2 Peter 3:10-13). He will then lower the Redeemed down to this earth inside the New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:2-7), and He will come to earth to live in their presence eternally (Revelation 22:1-4). Eternal peace is coming. War is going to be gone forever. This hope of Mankind will not be achieved by diplomats. It will be a gift of God through Jesus Christ who died to redeem Mankind and all the Cosmos. Resources: 9 Remaining Wars - Dr David Reagan

6. The New World Order Plan– Denver Airport
An African woman in colourful native garb; a Native American woman who's heritage the airport's art supposedly celebrates; a blonde girl with cupid bow lips, a Star of David on her chest and a bible in her hands. Each lay dead in open coffins for your viewing pleasure. A burning city, children sleeping on piles of bricks, a line of mourning women in rags with dead babies, limp in their arms. A huge, looming military figure in a gas mask brandishes a sword and machine gun. Part of an actual note written by a child interred in a Nazi death camp. Strange words embedded in the floor with no explanation about what they mean. Welcome to Denver International Airport! That's just the part you see up close, though. What you don't see are 8 subbasements, low- and high- frequency sounds that make people sick, air vents jutting out of the surrounding barren acres of fenced lots that have barbed wire along their tops - pointing in. Whole buildings that were constructed below ground level and then buried as is, the excuse being they were "built wrong". An entire runway constructed, then buried under a layer of dirt and "forgotten". The layers of workers and companies who were fired so no one would have a Big Picture. And workers even reported seeing Aliens working there. Are you rolling your eyes and going, "Oh sure. Nazis? Aliens, too huh? CRIPES". Well, I have to admit when I got to that part I did, too. But there's a lot of credible stories about a lot of documented things, so we can start there. With the dead babies and buried buildings. As far as Reptilian NWO and Nazis...I'll mention it...ok? As far as the place being something Not Right Under There, I'm convinced. Except you'll have to take my word for some of it because when I re-researched things to update this section. well! It seems they painted over two of the four walls that make up this sick mural and altered part of one that's still there. The Airport The airport was built in 1995 on 34,000 acres (53 square miles; 137.593 Sq.km) in spite of the fact that Denver already had what everyone said was a perfectly fine airport - Stapleton - which was ordered closed when DIA was built so there "wouldn't be any competition". In fact the new airport has less gates and less runways than Stapleton did (I hope you're saying, "That makes no sense"...). All it does have is a lot more acreage. More acreage than an airport that size could possibly need. Most which sits unused. They say it's in case they need to do any
53
future expansion. DIA is the 7th busiest airport in the US according to a 2002 Crain's Chicago Business report. The initial cost of this New Beast was to be 1.7 billion dollars (with a "B") but by the time they were done playing games, having problems, getting bailed out and got extra government money (and money from private corporations on top of that), it cost about $4.8 billion - obscenely over budget. I have yet to meet a local who wanted the thing built, or didn't have a frothing, rabid story about the whole mess. Words used to describe the DIA were "buried in technical problems", "poor project management", "overwhelming complexity" and "America's most inconvenient airport". It was built in a high wind area (Stapleton hadn't been) that causes it to be shut down or flights delayed often. The extensive automated baggage system so was messed up, such a circus of errors that it was worse than unusable - it was an industry joke. But it had to be built, and built there. Some say the reason that this was built and there was no stopping it, no cost spared to do so and why it was so SO overbudget and took so many years is because it's really an underground military base and a civilian detainment camp. The New World Order Most people speculate that this Airport was build to reveal the plans of the New World Order and within the airport we see a lot of symbolism that paints the picture of mass genocide and reduction of the world population from 6 billion down to 2 billion people. The majority of people live their lives without even noticing what is happening around them and they are slowly led into this trap of world dominance and population reduction. The huge, main terminal is Jeppesen Terminal, named after Elfrey Jeppesen, who was the first person to create maps specifically for aviation (the company is still in business today). This area is known as the "Great Hall"; it's said this is what the Masons name their meeting place. The capstone, or the dedication stone for the Denver airport has a Masonic symbol on it. A whole group of us went out to the airport to see some friends off and see this capstone which also has a time capsule imbedded inside it. It sits at the south eastern side of the terminal which, by the way, is called The Great Hall, which is what Masons refer to as their meeting hall. The dedication stone is in the name of the ―New World Airport Commission‖, but this organisation is non-existent and is made up. Can it be rather ―The New World Order‖? Wilhelm Landig was an Austrian SS veteran and postwar Nazi activist who coined the idea of the ―Black Sun,‖ a mystical energy source that would be capable of regenerating the Aryan race. Supposedly, in 1945 some Nazi pilots painted the black sun symbol on their aircraft. It is now a symbol of a belief in Nazi Polar UFO bases, secret organized world Aryan cults and Nazis who have been living and organizing all these decades and who will
54
spring ready to take the world back from the existing inferior Judeo-Christian masters and ...you get the idea. Interestingly, the runways of Denver International are laid out in the shape of a Swastika. Most aeronautical documents I was able to read said that parallel runways are the most efficient and busy airports like Hartsfield and O'Hare use this design). There is a plate on the floor of the Airport that shows the symbols Au Ag. You might think this is related to gold (Au) and silver (Ag), however, one of the spencers of the Airport discovered a new deadly strain of hepatitis called ―Australia Antigen‖ and is also symbolised by the symbol AUAG. What is scary is that this symbol is located right in from of a mural that symbolises genocide.
The murals are the most dominant feature of the Airport and stretch over four walls. These are painted by the artist named Leo Tanguma who is a Mayan.
The First Mural The first mural has three main characters, a African, and Jewish and a native American. They are dead and lay in three coffins. Behind them is a burning city and a girl holding a Mayan tablet.
There are evidently three groups of people that they would like to see dead. The first casket has what the artist told me was a Jewish-American child, a little girl, and she has the "star" on her clothes and a little Bible and a locket... Then, in the centre
55
casket there is depicted a Native American woman, and the last casket has a black woman in it.
The Burning City and the Mayan Tablet...
In the same mural is shown the destruction of city and forest, a little girl holding a Mayan Tablet that predicts destruction of the world. Can this be linked to the Mayan Calendar date of 21 December 2012 for the beginning of a new era and where the earth is going to a birth process of a new age? This gives us the timeline of when the New World Order wants to destroy civilisation, as we know it today. I hope it's just my imagination seeing two towers in that city.
56
The Second Mural
The
main figure in this mural is a masked man with a sword in his one hand, killing a white dove (peace) and a machine gun in the other, depicting war. The reason for the mask is found in the strange grey smoke (poisonous gas) that is coming down from behind his head and flows down to the three girls below him. People run in fear in the background and there is a line of weeping woman holding their dead babies (vaccines?). This is the mural with the symbols Au Ag on the floor that relates to the Australia Antigen virus.
57
The three girls depicting three nations; an African girl, a Jewish girl and an native American or Indian girl. They are ―under the sword‖ and they lay on the bricks of their destroyed civilisations. Can biological warfare be at play here including the terrible strain of AUAG?
This poem says it all; it is a story of humanity who became ―bad‖ as they grew up from a child state. This ―grown up nation‖ will be put to ―sleep‖ and when they wake up, they will be as innocent children again who laugh and play.
58
This spells out the ―death‖ of humanity as we know it today and those who will survive or who will be ―saved‖ will start a new generation without the problems of old.
The Third Mural
This mural shows all the children of the world collecting all their weapons and they give it to a German boy. He uses a hammer and changes these weapons into something new. In front of them is the dead army like figure from the previous mural showing the end of the bad times. On him sits two white doves showing that peace has return and is more than it was before. Everybody as relieved and happy and are eager to co-operate and they work as one together.
59
The Fourth Mural
The final mural shows the New World. The transition is complete and the New World has been completed. In the right side of this mural you will see a ―Christ like‖ figure and everybody are gathering towards him. He holds a plat that symbolises ―rebirth‖. This is the Plan of Lucifer to reign and be god to all people. They will worship him and he will be their god…I think not!!! YHVH will destroy this system called Babylon in the end of time, (looks like before 2016) so that YHVH‘s Kingdom will be established forever.
Here are some facts about Denver Airport: o o o
o o o o o o
The Queen of England has reportedly been buying up property in Colorado under a proxy. There is a lot of "secret society" symbology at the airport, an AWFUL lot in fact The symbolism apparent in the layout of the new Denver airport, some feel, says that it may be a control center for world control, specifically, those involved in some very unusual government projects in the past, have remarked that the Denver area is where the establishment of the Western sector of the New World Order will be in the United States. Denver is of very high altitude and ideal for safe underground building The dedication or capstone of the new Denver International Airport is a Masonic symbol. If you visit the airport's southeastern side of the terminal you will find the Masonic Capstone in Granite. This part of the terminal is called The Great Hall, which is known in Masonic lingo as their meeting hall. On the Masonic Capstone is inscribed NEW WORLD AIRPORT COMMISION. An eyewitness who has since "committed suicide" named Phil Schneider was a whistle blower re: Denver International Airport's underground facilities
60
o
He helped build the underground facilities and reportedly "killed" himself via a double tie catheter behind his own neck strangling himself. It goes without saying that it appears that he was MURDERED. o Phil also worked on other government underground facilities such as Area 51 and Dulce and more. See http://www.geocities.com/Area51/9357/, which is a tribute to Phil, although I cannot vouch for the site myself o In the same general area as the Masonic capstone, there are Masonic designs inlaided in the floor, such as the expression DZIT DIT GAII, [anyone know EXACTLY what that means?] o Phil Schneider's father was a U-boat captain during the NAZI regime. o Apparently DZIT DIT GAII refers to the BLACK SUN some sort of NAZI symbology. o NAZI's apparently were into "BLACK SUN" worship, i.e. Saturn, i.e. Satanism, should not surprise us, I suppose o There are many murals at the airport of an EXTREMELY grotesque and apocalyptic nature. o After looking at the murals many come away saying that they may represent what the elites plan to do with world and us. o Another Mural depicts a green giant "Darth Vader" like figure wearing a gas mask destroying a city o In this mural women can be seen carrying DEAD BABIES o Another mural depicts a German boy collecting from all the other children of the world, all of the worlds weapons, the German boy has a HUGE IRON FIST and is pounding all the weapons into plowshares on an anvil o Operation Paperclip was a plan wherein NAZI's were brought into the US to be brought back into power after being financed and appearance altered o Many German nationals have been seen along Americans in more sensitive areas of the airport's underground facilities on a regular basis o The LUFTWAFFE has long had an EXTENSIVE base in New Mexico complete with towns where all signs are in GERMAN o The Artists who made the murals etc in DENVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT have been interviewed wherein they first claimed that guidelines WERE provided for their work o Upon further investigation, they appear to have forgotten that they previously said guidelines were given o Another mural depicts nothing but mind-altering or poisonous plants and animals all of which are recognized as Masonic symbols worldwide o Most people are shocked by this weird art and are bewildered that such strange stuff is in the airport at all [not unlike the bizarre propaganda/art at the new IRS HQ] o Phil Schneider claimed during the last year of constuction that the underground airport system was being connected to a deep underground base, at least 8 levels deep, 4.5 square mile underground city, 88.5 square mile base underneath the airport. o Rodney Stitch, author of Defrauding of America, claims to have a copy of a tape of a CIA agent paying off the mayor of Denver to get the airport built [$1.5 million payoff] References: Denver Airport Conspiracy Part 1 Denver Airport Conspiracy Part 2 Denver International Airport & its Murals

7. The Solar and Lunar Eclipses by Mark Bilts “Blood Moons” Solar and Lunar Eclipses and the End Times Research by Mark Bilts Rev 3:3 Remember then how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. 1Th 5:4-6 But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that the Day should overtake you like a thief. (5) You are all the sons of light and the sons of the day. We are not of the night, or of darkness. (6) Therefore let us not sleep as the rest do, but let us watch and be calm. Those who know the signs and watch, they will not be overtaken like a thief in the night, but will be awake and see the events unfold and be calm. When Messiah (Christ) came the first time, there were signs in the heavens and when He comes the second time we will see signs in the heavens as well. Gen 1:14 And Elohim (God) said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to divide between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years. YHVH (the LORD) placed the sun, moon and stars in the heaves to be as signs and seasons. The word ‗seasons‘ is the Hebrew word ―mo-ed‖ that means ‗appointed times‘ or Festivals. The Birth of Y‘shua (Jesus) was after Trumpets, on the Feast of Sukkot where the ―star of Bethlehem‖ pointed out the birth of the Messiah to the wise men form the East. The Star of Bethlehem was not a single star that lit up brighter than the others; it was three star consolations that aligned to point out the event. Libra, Vergo and Leo aligned and this was the ―Star of Bethlehem‖ that Daniel revealed this while he was captive in Babylon. Hundreds of years later, the people who had this knowledge came form the east to bring their worship to the new born King and gave Him the inheritance of Daniel as gifts. YHVH will reveal the Second Coming of the Messiah on an Appointed Time where there will be signs in the Heavens. What will the signs be when the Messiah returns? Joel 2:30-31 And I will saw wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. ―The sun shall be turned into
62
darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of YHVH (the LORD) come. YHVH (the LORD) revealed the First Coming of the Messiah through signs in the stars and He will reveal the Second Coming of Messiah though signs in the sun and the moon. We see the sun will be darkened and the moon will turn to blood, what does this mean? These are solar and lunar eclipses, a solar eclipse is where the sun is physically darkened and a lunar eclipse is where a full moon turns red.
Bible Predictions About the Sun and Moon Now, let‘s look at the places in the Bible that speak of the sun being darkened and the moon not giving her light. First of all, Isaiah wrote: Isa 13:9-10 Behold, the day of YHVH comes, cruel and with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land waste; and He shall destroy its sinners out of it. (10) For the stars of the heavens and their constellations shall not give light; the sun shall be darkened in its going forth, and the moon shall not reflect its light. We are told that this will occur in the “day of YHVH.” It is the time when YHVH will punish all nations for their wickedness. We are not talking about ordinary everyday living, but gross wickedness against YHVH and His Chosen People. YHVH calls them arrogant, proud and haughty. He says that they are terrible, evil and wicked. It seems to me that He is referring to the nations that are trying to destroy Israel. Again, Isaiah said: Isa. 24:23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when YHVH of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously‖ Since neither the sun nor moon has a conscience, the references to being confounded or ashamed seem to be metaphoric of the condition of man on earth. The darkening of the sun and moon, therefore, are signs of man‘s condition. These conditions will prevail at the time of Y‘shua‘s return to judge the wicked and establish His kingdom. Isaiah was the first prophet to write about solar and lunar events, but Joel‘s passages are the most widely quoted. Joel wrote: Joel 2:10,11 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining (11) And YHVH shall utter His voice before His army: for his camp is very great: for He is strong that executes His word: for the day of YHVH is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? Again, Joel said:

Joel 2:30,31 And I will see wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. (31) The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of YHVH come. Finally, Joel said: Joel 3:14,15 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of YHVH is near in the valley of decision. (15) The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining. Isaiah and Joel are the only (OT) prophets that mentioned solar and lunar events in the day of YHVH. In each case, however, it is apparent that they are referring to events that precede the messianic kingdom. Joel adds earthquakes, blood, fire and pillars of smoke. I think he is describing the battles that attend the Tribulation Period, especially the final Battle of Armageddon. Passages From the Brit Chadasha (New Testament) In the New Testament Gospel of Matthew, Y‘shua (Jesus) said: Matt. 24:29,30 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. (30) And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Y‘shua described His glorious appearing at the close of the Tribulation Period. What does the darkening of the sun and moon mean? Solar & lunar eclipses. Powers of the heavens being shaken could refer to earthquakes or many nuclear explosions around the world, disrupting the atmosphere. This will be a glorious event that will happen immediately AFTER the Tribulation. Luke records this same event: Luke 21:25-27 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring. (26) Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. (27) And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. On the day of Pentecost, Peter quoted Joel‘s prophecy: Acts 2:20,21 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of YHVH come (21) And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of YHVH shall be saved. In the book of Revelation, John enlarged upon the prophecy:
64
Rev. 6:12,13 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood. (13) And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. Rev. 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
Sabbatical Years Some Scholars believe that the Second Coming of Messiah will be in sync with the Sabbatical year cycles. A Sabbatical year is happens every seventy-year just like a Sabbath happens every seventh day. This is the year where the Land must rest. The Second Coming of Messiah is linked to the Sabbath as found in Hebrews 4 where those who do not harden their hearts will enter YHVH‘s Rest. The number seven means ―Plan of YHVH‖ and this number is seen within the Seven Feasts of YHVH wherein His Plan of Restoration is revealed. The Sabbath is the Seventh day where YHVH rested and the Sabbath is a prophetic picture of the ―Millennial Rest‖ that we will enter after the Coming of Messiah. Joseph interpreted Pharaoh‘s dream to foretell the seven-year prosperity and sevenyear famine time periods and is similar to Daniel ―seventieth week‖, that will most probably fall within a seven-year Sabbatical cycle. Students of biblical prophecy have long compared Pharaoh‘s dream and Daniel‘s seventieth week with the Tribulation Period known as Jacob‘s Trouble, as laid out in the book of Revelation. We are currently in a 7-year cycle, which started 2008. Are we in the seven years of famine according to Joseph‘s interpretation and Daniels seventieth week? If we look back a couple of years you will notice that the majority of the Western Culture countries experiences prosperity from 2000 – 2008, which is a seven-year period. We have seen the Global Financial Crisis that started at the end of 2008 and could mark the next seven years of famine. America, the icon of Western civilisation experienced this downfall severely and several countries followed and are currently being affected. It is expected that China‘s economy will come to a standstill by 2011 and that will affect Australia. What makes this very interesting is the fact that according to the Jewish calendar, 2008 was a Sabbatical Year, which started September 29, 2008, and we are currently in the seven-year cycle that will end in 2014. The next Sabbatical year will be in 2014/2015.
Biblical Holy Days The Biblical Holidays are found in Leviticus 23 and spell out the Plan of YHVH (the LORD). There are seven Festivals divided into two main seasons; 4 Spring Festivals and 3 Fall Festivals. The first four Festivals revealed the First Coming of the Messiah and the last three Festivals will be fulfilled by the Messiah‘s Second Coming.
65
The Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) represents the Gathering of YHVH‘s people, also known as the ―Rapture‖. The Day of Atonement represents the final day of judgment where Babylon (Satan‘s system) will be destroyed and the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) represent the coming down of the New Jerusalem (YHVH‘s dwelling place on earth) where He will live with His people forever. These Festivals are very significant and prophetic and will reveal the real Messiah from the AntiMessiah. The sun and the moon will signal His Second coming as noted in the following verses: Joel 2:30-31 And I will saw wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. ―The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of YHVH come Matt. 24:29,30 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:―And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Lunar Eclipses Our Saviour‘s Second Coming will be heralded with signs in the heavens, in which the sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood. Pastor Mark Biltz went on the Internet, to a U.S. Nasa web site, to see if he could find any solar or lunar eclipses over the next few years that might be significant. To his surprise, he found four lunar eclipses and two solar eclipses in the Sabbatical Year of 2014 and 2015. Also, he noticed that they all appear on Biblical Holy Days!
66
A lunar eclipse is when the moon turns red and it seems like it has turned into blood. Mark Biltz discovered the following lunar eclipses that are in line with Biblical Feast days: Passover, April 15, 2014 The Feast of Tabernacles, October 8, 2014 Passover, April 4, 2015 and The Feast of Tabernacles, September 28, 2015 This is most unusual. It is a rare occurrence for four lunar cycles to happen on successive Passover and the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) observances. It will not happen again for hundreds of years. However, Mark found that a series of four lunar eclipses on these particular holy days did occur in the twentieth century -- not once, but twice! The first set occurred on Passover, 13 April 1949; the first yearly cycle after Israel became a state! The events started with the 1948 Arab–Israeli War or the First Arab-Israeli War was fought between the State of Israel and a military coalition of Arab states and Palestinian Arab forces that lasted from 15 May 1948 – 10 March 1949 (9 months, 3 weeks and 2 days) Final armistice agreement concluded on 20 July 1949.
The second set happened on two Passovers, and two Feasts of Tabernacles (Sukkot) 1967/68, the year Israel liberated Jerusalem (5-10 June 1967)!
Such a phenomenon is rarely impossible, unless it was set up by Divine design. Mark looked back in history and noticed that the last time this set of four lunar eclipses occurred on Passover and Sukkot was in 1493, the year after Columbus sailed the ocean blue and Spain expelled all Jews. Mark is convinced that YHVH was telling the Jews that He was fully aware of their circumstances and that His hand is upon them! In that case, we wonder what is YHVH telling the Jews in the 1949 and 1967 lunar eclipses? And, as we look at the next seven years, we wonder, ―What is YHVH telling Israel through the upcoming lunar eclipses in 2014/2015?‖ Is it possible that these are fulfilling Biblical prophecies? These signs are so rare and cannot be ignored.

Solar Eclipses In addition to the four lunar eclipses in 2014-15, Mark also found two solar eclipses right in between. They will occur on: Adar 29/Nisan 1, March 20, 2015 The Feast of Trumpets, September 13, 2015 These two dates are quite significant because they are special days in the Hebrew calendar. For example, it was on Nisan 1, the first anniversary of the Exodus, that Moses raised up the Tabernacle for the first time and the glory of YHVH descended. Two weeks later, the Chosen People observed their first Pentecost since the Exodus. Nisan 1 marks the beginning of the religious festival cycle and the beginning of the year. Six months later, on Tishri 1, we observe the Feast of Trumpets. This day is highly prophetic, because it is said to be the anniversary of the Creation of Adam. And, even though it is a Biblical observance, it is prophetically significant as a day for Gentile nations. It also mark the event of Messiah‘s return that will occur on the blowing of a trumpet. It is the day when YHVH will sit down upon His throne of Judgment and take the books in his hand. That is when He will begin the judgment of the world. So, a solar eclipse on Trumpets could precede the Second Coming of Messiah in power and great glory, and fulfil the Biblical description.
The first of three solar eclipses happened on the first of Av. That‘s right, all three solar eclipses will be on the biblical date of Av 1, for the next three years -- 2008, 2009, and 2010. Our Gregorian calendar dates are:
68
Av 1 - August 1, 2008 - partial eclipse Av 1 - July 22, 2009 - partial eclipse Av 1 - July 11, 2010 - partial eclipse There were a lot of bad things that happened during the 9 days of Av and it is the most sorrowful time of the year for Jews. In the Jewish calendar, they are all in the period between the 1st and 9th of the month of Av: o o o o o o o o
Moses caught the people worshiping the Golden Calf on Tammuz 17. Therefore, the three weeks from Tammuz 17 to Av 9 are called ―the dark time‖. The day when Jews lament the destruction of their temple by Nebuchadnezzar. 600 years later Rome destroyed Temple 9 Av. Jews kicked out of England 1290 - 9Av. Jews kicked out of Spain 1492 - 9 Av. World War 1 started 9 Av Hitler's proclamation to kill the Jews - 9 Av Evacuated Gaza strip on sunset 3500 years ago - 9Av
From Av 1-9, no bathing is allowed; no comforts; no clean clothes; the Jew takes his shoes off; sits on an overturned chair and reads the book of Lamentations. What happened on the 1st of Av 2008, 2009 and what will happen during the ―dark time‖ starting on the 1st of Av, 11 Jul 2010 this year?
The first Solar Eclipse: 1 – 9 Aug 2008 – Russia invaded Georgia This time from the 1 – 9 Av is a time that is bad for Israel and where things happened that caused them grief. On 8/08/2008, seven days after the 1 Av, Russia attacked and invaded Georgia. What is the significance of this? In 1120 AD the kingdom of Jerusalem officially recognise the order of knights Templar at the counsel of Nablus 888 years ago. If you subtract 888 years from 8/08/2008 it gives the number 1120, which is the year Jerusalem was liberated, fascinating! The emblem of Jerusalem was a ―five-fold‖ cross. This is the same ―five-fold‖ cross that appears on the flag of the Republic of Georgia. Georgia is named after St. George, symbolic of the liberation of Jerusalem during the crusades. On 8/08/2008, war broke out between Russia and Georgia. This region was known in the past as ―Gog‖ from earliest history. The area of conflict lies 888 miles from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. (see Signs of the End Times - Section 2 for details on Newtons work regarding the time vs. distance from the Temple).
69
On 08/08/2008, a huge figure 8 ―crop circle‖ appeared in Wiltsire England. The Illuminati is behind the war in Georgia. It is the opening event for the conquest of Jerusalem for the soon coming Antichrist. After the destruction of ―Gog‘s‖ armies, the Antichrist will establish the New World Order with its religious centre seated in Jerusalem. Right after this event after the Feast of Trumpets in 2008, the World Financial Crisis started and is still current. This can relate to the story of Joseph in Scripture where there were seven years of prosperity and then seven years of famine. The last seven years is a picture of the last seven years including the Great Tribulation.
The Second Solar Eclipse: 22 – 30 July 2009 – Building of the Altar in Jerusalem by the Temple Institute We were waiting to see what will happen in this 9 days of "darkness" or mourning for the Jews connected to the solar eclipse 22 Jul 09. On the last day, 30 Jul 2009 or 9 Av (Tisha B'Av), started the building of the Sacrificial Altar that is VERY significant for the end times time line. Dan 12:10-12 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried. But the wicked shall do wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand. 11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the DESOLATING ABOMINATION set up, a thousand two hundred and ninety days ( 3,5 years) shall occur. 12 Blessed is he who waits and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days (the end of days). There needs to be an Altar for the sacrifices to start, and when the sacrifices are stopped and the Abomination of Desolation is set up in the Holy Place, starts the 3,5 years of the Great Tribulation.... Are you ready?! From 2000 to 2007, the whole world experience growth and prosperity, but this only lasted until the end of 2008. This can mean that we are currently within the last seven years of ―famine‖ which is evident through the current world economic crisis. The first 3,5 years will be the preparation for the ―seat‖ and rule of the Antichrist to be set up and the last 3,5 years will start with the Antichrist announcing that he is god from the Temple in Jerusalem. During the years 2008 to 2012 we should look for the dividing of the land of Israel and the rebuilding of the Third Temple and the starting of daily sacrifices by the Jews. Mat 24:15-21 Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand). (16) Then let those in Judea flee into the mountains. (17) Let him on the housetop not come down to take anything out of his house; (18) nor let him in the field turn back to take his clothes. (19) And woe to those who are with child, and to those who give suck in those days! (20) But pray that your flight is not in the winter, nor on the sabbath day; (21) for then shall be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world to this time; no, nor ever shall be.

Mark Biltz seems to think that the solar eclipses on Av 1, could change the course of history, because solar eclipses are significant and foretell a bad time that will involve the middle east and Jerusalem. Will there be a war in Israel this year? It is entirely possible. If so, then the solar eclipse could be announcing judgment upon the world - a sobering thought!
We have seen two events that confirmed the first two solar eclipses in 2008 and 2009; will 11 Jul 2010 confirm it even further? If something happens this year, then it will be the second conformation of this timeline and we can expect some action in 2014, and 2015 to fulfil Biblical prophecy regarding the Second Coming of Messiah. We will also look at 2011/12; which is 3,5 years within the seven-year cycle for the sign of the sacrifices to be stopped and the Abomination of Desolation set up in Jerusalem. This will signal the start of the Great Tribulation that will last 1290 days (3,5 years) according to Daniel‘s prophecy. We expect these things to happen in the month of Nissan, which is normally in April and will conclude on the Feast of Trumpets 2015 where we will expect the Messiah‘s return. I am not trying to foretell the future, but I am only lining up the Word with the heavenly signs and with world events so that we can have a feel for when this will happen so that we can warn people. The only way to convince someone that YHVH is real and that the Scripture is true is if we can prove if by world events and prophecy. This is one of the greatest events that has been prophesied and this will be the best ―tool‖ to lead people to YHVH. These signs are in line with Scripture and the eclipses lining up with Feast days are mind-boggling and cannot be ignored. Be informed with world events and keep our eyes on the signs so that we might be found ready.
71
Blood Moons Timeline – Confirmed or Not ? What happened this year form (1 Av – 9 Av) 11 July to 19 July that is significant? Nothing. It is a bit disappointing but also a relief. I expected something significant to happen to confirm this timeline and nothing happened which makes this timeline inaccurate.
I still believe the four blood moons that will occur on 15 April 2014, 8 Oct 2014 and 4 April 2015 and 28 Sept 2015 will be significant because of the rarity of this event and its significance in past occurrences. What this does tell us is that the seven years did not start in 2008 and we need to look at the next timeline to give us conformation of when the seven years will start. The two events that happened previously on the solar eclipse; Russia invading Georgia and the building of the Altar are significant in the end time events and should not be discarded. All it means is that they happened before the seven-year period we are expecting. The next timeline to watch is from Michael Rood and the 70 Weeks form Daniel‘s Timeline where he states that the seven-year period may start in 2010 with the possibility of the Tribulation to start in 2013 round about Passover season.

8. Comet ISON on Chanukah 5774! Other key prophecies, dates and landmarks in time
The holiday of Hanukah is all about Light. In its essence it connects us to the concealed light of Creation. The first light of Creation included within it the ability to see beyond time and space. We learn from the sages and that God decided to reduce this light in order to limit its use because if people were to have access to the higher light, they might have used it for negative purposes. In every generation there are righteous people whose duty it is to become special channels for the light of Creation to feed and sustain the world. The opportunity we have to come closer to this light is when we light the Chanukah candles.
There will be signs in the sun, moon and starts [ Luke 21:15] YHVH has put lights in the firmament and let them be for "signs." [Genesis 1:14] Comet ISON was discovered on September 21, 2012 in images taken by Russian astronomers Artyom Novichonok and Vitali Nevski of the constellation Cancer. September 21, 2012 was 5 Tishrei 5773, the fifth day of the new year of 5773, halfway between Yom Teruah and Yom Kippur. 5773 is the year when ISON has been visible to NASA telescopes, and beginning in August 2013 (Elul, the last month of 5773) to amateur astrologers directing their telescopes to the heavens across the globe.
Beginning Aug. 21, ISON will be 6 degrees above the east-northeast horizon at twilight and potentially visible through a telescope. On October 1st, ISON will come within its closest distance of Mars and may be visible through Curiosity. Mars and ISON will then move together through the sky eastward through Leo. In mid-October, ISON and Mars will be conjunct royal star Regulus. Beginning in late October, ISON is likely to be visible through binoculars or even to the naked eye. On November 17, the day before the 19th of Kislev, and the arrival of the new revelation of the secret dimension of Torah for the year 5774, ISON flies by the super-bright stars Spica and Acturus in Virgo. On November 24, ISON conjoins Saturn and the star Zubenelgenubi of Libra.
74
ISON then heads for the 13th sign of the zodiac, the gateway between Scorpio and Sagittarius, Ophiuchus. On November 28, the first day of Chanukah, ISON reaches its closest approach of making its closest approach to earth on its way back from the sun.
Eclipses and Comets – Signs in the Sky As with an eclipse, a comet is generally thought to be a bad omen. Is this concept valid or is it merely a superstitious tradition? You can draw your own conclusion.
Destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem in 70 AD preceeded by Haley’s Comet in 66AD, this would not have been particularly noteworthy but for the spectacular display that year which, as the historian Josephus duly recorded, "stretched out over Jerusalem like a sword." The comet's appearance at that time may have been a similar event to that which is described in I Chronicles 21:16
David looked up and saw the angel of YHVH standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand extended over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell facedown. In 1948, the year Israel was reborn as a nation, another occurred known as The Eclipse Comet, C/1948 VI (1948 XI), it appeared during the solar eclipse of November 1. One year earlier, the comet known as The Southern Comet, 1947/XII was visible during the total solar eclipse of May 20, 1947. During July 1994, starting on the 9th of Av, the comet called Shoemaker-Levi broke into what is believed to be 21 pieces and crashed into the planet Jupiter over a 5 to 7 day period. Jupiter is the King planet, symbolic of the King of Kings - the Jewish Y'shua HaMoshiach and possibly also symbolic of the 12 tribes of Israel. Twenty-one has been noted (Don Kistler) as being the number which means "the exceeding sinfulness of sin." At the time of this remarkable event, Jupiter was in the sign Libra, popularly represented as "The Scales," or, perhaps more likely, “Judgement”. The adjacent constellation, Scorpio. The scorpion is possibly symbolic of Lucifer, whose name means "light bearer". The area of the sky where Jupiter was located during the bombardment is pictured as where “Judgement “ will come to "the scorpion" or Satan and his kingdom by the One Whom they “pierced”. This event was prophesied 1800 years ago by Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai, captured in the Zohar. The "planet arising in the east" is understood to be what is currently called Jupiter. In Torah, this planet is called Tzedek and is associated with Kingship, arousing teshuvah [repentence] and the flow of life and good. The planet with dominion in the east during the [Hebrew] month of Av
After forty days, when the pillar rises from earth to heaven in the eyes of the whole world and the Messiah has appeared, A STAR WILL RISE UP ON THE EAST, BLAZING IN ALL COLORS, AND SEVEN OTHER STARS WILL SURROUND THAT STAR. And they will wage war on it from all sides, three times a day for seventy days, and all the people in the world will see.
75
And that star will make war with them with torches of blazing fire, sparkling in every direction, and it will strike them until it swallows them every single night. And at daytime, it lets them out again. They will make the war before the whole world repeatedly for seventy days. After seventy days, that star will be hidden and the Messiah will be hidden for twelve months, the pillar of fire will return as before, the Messiah will be hidden in it, and that pillar will not be seen. After twelve months, the Messiah will be raised inside that pillar into the firmament, where he will receive strength and the crown of kingship. And when he descends to the earth, that pillar of fire will be seen again as before, in the eyes of the whole world. Afterwards, the Messiah will appear and many nations will gather unto him, and he will make wars throughout the world. At that time, the Creator will awaken all the peoples of the world with His might, the Messiah King will be known throughout the world, and all the kings in the world will awaken and unite to wage war against him. The commentaries explain that just like the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem was preceded by a heavenly announcement, so too the rebuilding of the Temple and the establishment of Moshiach [King Messiah] as King would be preceded by this heavenly announcement. This planet (Jupiter) will make war with them (comet pieces), strikes of flaming fire exploding with every piece of comet. It will strike at them until all traces of them are consumed and until the day it is free from them. This war will be conducted before the eyes of the entire world and so it will be every day for seven days. This is to decree that seven days this planet will be hidden and Moshiach will be hidden for 12 months and will be crowned with this pillar of fire. This event indicates the starting of the Messianic era and that the Coming of the Messiah is very near.
Jewish Prophecy and the Messianic Era People tend not to agree with the Orthodox Jews and all the things they so and believe but they also have insight into the Word and some Sages has written prophetic statements that was fulfilled – one of which was fulfilled by Y’shua when He stood on the 12 stones in the entrance of the Temple. The Orthodox Jews do believe in the Messiah, that He is coming, they only missed the first coming but that was part of YHVH’s plan to bring in the Nations first and then the “Jews”. In this section we will look at prophecies captured in the Massorah and the Zohar to see what they believe and which signs they observe to be ready for the coming of the Messiah. From the time Comet ISON first becomes visible to the naked eye it traverses the constellations of Leo, then in November it makes its way into Virgo and into Libra then Scorpius in December. Late December it moves into Serpens, then Hercules and finally Draco before it is no longer visible with an unaided eye. Putting this together in terms of how the Hebrew Massorah depicts these aspects of the constellations, it reads like a book. The seed of the woman, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah who shall punish the enemy, will redeem His atoning work through conflict with the
76
enemy who assaults man’s heel. His mightiness will reign victorious as He bruises His heel casting down the dragon and trotting him under His foot and then rededicating the temple of YHVH. The possibility that ISON will be visible in the night-time and possibly daytime sky raises the question whether ISON is the Star of Jacob prophesised by Bilaam in the book of Numbers. The word staff (shevet) is from the same root as the word ‘tribe’ as in ‘tribes of Israel’ and as the word for comet in modern Hebrew – shavit ()שביט. I see it, but not now; I behold it, but not in the near future. A star shall go forth from Jacob, And a staff [shevet] shall arise from Israel The Zohar elaborates on the connection between heavenly phenomena and the arrival of the messianic era:
Then the 7th window will open in the entire world, and its star is Kochav Yaakov, and this is the one about which Bilaam said “a star shoots forth from Yaakov,” and this star will be luminous for 40 days and 40 nights. When Melech Hamoshiach will be revealed, and all the people’s of the world will be gathered to him, then the verse will be fulfilled which states [Yeshaya 11:10]: “the root of Yishai, which stands as a banner for peoples, to him shall the nations inquire, and his peace shall be [with] honor.” – Zohar Terumah 172b
ISON and the Ushering in of the Messianic Era.
77
Due to the trajectory of comet ISON through the cosmos with specific reference to the constellations, there appears a story worthy of consideration. Remember that we are told to watch the sky for signs.
He will come as the “Lion of Judah”, born of a Virgin, to bring Judgement to this world. His glory will be as bright as the sun and He will come to cut off the Serpents power thereafter He will receive the Crown as the King of kings and He will rule this world. This will be followed by 4 very rare lunar eclipses that will occur on Passover and Sukkot, the beginning and the end of His work, to suffer and die for us and then to come and sukkot with His people in the New Jerusalem.
Joel 2 and Acts 2 both state; "And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into
78
darkness (eclipse) and the moon into blood (eclipse) before the great and terrible day of YHVH comes." One thing we know form Jewish and Biblical sources is that the coming of Messiah or the Messianic ear will be reseeded and imbedded with heavenly signs for the entire world to see. Jewish sources tell us that they are expecting the Messiah soon confirmed by fulfilment of their prophecies recorded in the Zohar. We expect the Messiah based on the prophecies of Y’shua recorded in Matthew chapter 24. We look at world events and see the “birth pains”. We do not know the day or the hour but we can look for signs in the sun, moon and stars, as well as prophecy fulfilment during each season every year to anticipate the second coming of the Messiah. What to look for during these signs? These events needs to line up with prophecy, if they do not, then these signs are part of the “birth pains” and not the final event yet. This was the case with “Elenin” that came past during the Feast of Trumpets 2011 and a lot of people thought this is the end of the world. In the end it was prophetic and significant, confirming the end is closer, but it did not align with prophecy or any significant events in Israel and thus not “THE END”. Do not “jump the gun”, YHVH gave His Word and there will be patterns that looks like the real thing but might be a smaller version pre-empting the real event that is coming. A lot of people gets discouraged and lose their faith by others “crying wolf” and then nothing happens. At that time many will fall away. They will betray each other and hate each other. Matthew 24:10
Do not be dismayed, keep on watching and be spiritually ready for the coming of the Messiah. At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. At midnight the cry rang out: 'Here's the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!' Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.' 'No,' they replied, 'there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.' But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut. Later the others also came. 'Sir! Sir!' they said. 'Open the door for us!' But he replied, 'I tell you the truth, I don't know you.' Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour. Matthew 25:1-13 Will there be anything happening when ISON comes past the sun – I think not, it definitely lines up with the Feast of Chanukkah that has to do with Rededicating the Temple that’s meaning is twofold. The first is that it is time to prepare yourself spiritually, to get your relationship with YHVH right, to rededicate YOUR temple and be ready for His coming, whenever that might be. The second is that it is a sign that we take note of that proceeds the possibility of the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem. This means that it might point to the next event that we are waiting for, the starting of sacrifices by the Jews that possibly
79
will happen on Passover 2014, which falls on a Blood Moon. If that does not happen, then we will look for the prophecy to happen around the next Feast day….and so on…till it happens. Do not be misled by the “dooms day mongers” trying to predict the date of the time of the end. Know the Word, know what is happening in the Middle East, look for and watch the signs in the heavens – then you will be a true “watchman” and wise virgin that will be ready for the coming of the Messiah.

9. Seventy Weeks of Daniels Prophecy by Michael Rood The Prophecy of Isaiah was fulfilled in 1948 when Israel became a nation in one day. Isa 66:8 Who has heard a thing like this? Who has seen things like these? Will the earth be brought forth in one day? Or will a nation be born at once? For Zion travailed and also brought forth her sons. On May 15 1948 at 18h00 Israel was declared a nation. This was midnight Jerusalem time on the Hebrew Calendar date 6 Shivan which is the 49th day of Counting the Omer with the 50th day being Shavuot or Pentecost. The Counting of the Omer is the counting of 7 Sabbaths or weeks from the Feast of First Fruits during the Passover and Unleavened Bread Spring Festivals as described in Leviticus 13. This is very significant because it is in sinc with the Feast days or Timeline of YHVH (God), which is His reckoning of time and will fulfil everything according to His Calendar. This counting of seven Sabbaths or weeks relate to the Prophecy of Daniel where we look at the future events in relation with Seventy years, Seven years, Sixty two years, One year after this Sixty two years and in the midst of that year. Dan 9:24-27 Seventy weeks are decreed as to your people and as to your holy city, to finish the transgression and to make an end of sins, and to make atonement for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy. (25) Know therefore and understand, that from the going out of the command to restore and to build Jerusalem, to Messiah the Prince, shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks. The street shall be built again, and the wall, even in times of affliction. (26) And after sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself. And the people of the ruler who shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. And the end of it shall be with the flood, and ruins are determined, until the end shall be war. (27) And he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week. And in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease, and on a corner of the altar desolating abominations, even until the end. And that which was decreed shall be poured on the desolator. We will use this 50th day or Feast of Shavuot (weeks) to start he counting of the 70 years, the 62 years and the 1-year described in Daniel.
1948 + 62 = 2010 2010 is the starting of the last ―week‖ (7 years) in which the midst of that seven years (3,5 years later) the Abomination of Desolation will be placed in the Holy Place and the daily sacrifices be stopped and the Antichrist will declare himself to be god and many will worship him as the Messiah. This seven-year period will end at 2017 with the final judgment of YHVH.
81
To further confirm this we will calculate the Sabbatical year, which is the seven-year cycle where every seventh year is a Sabbatical year where the land rests. Some background before we start the calculations. A young man is ready to go to war at the age of 20. Israel was ―born‖ in 1948 and was 20 years old in 1967 when they went to war for 6 days and had victory over their enemies. They took back Jerusalem and the temple mount and this is the year for starting the counting of seven Sabbatical years. This is seen as the real entry into the land where they took over the land and this is seen as the starting of the seven-year cycles.
If you count 1967/68 as the first year, the first Sabbatical year would be 1974/75 and the seventh Sabbatical year would be 2016/17 which conforms the date 2017 as the last year of the seven years of Tribulation.

10. Daniel’s Timeline by DanielsTimeline.com
No one knows the Day and the Hour – Are we suppose to know? If you touch on the topic of the End Times and possible Timelines when we can expect the Messiah to come, many believers say that no one knows the day and the hour, not even Jesus/Y'shua. This belief cause them then to steer away and avoid the study of prophecy and the possible timeline of the coming of Messiah: Mat 24:35-36 The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My Words shall not pass away. (36) But of that day and hour no one knows, no, not the angels of Heaven, but only My Father. Some translations have inserted "not even the Son" and this is due to translation errors. The Book of Matthew is the only "New Testament" book that has a original Hebrew manuscript (Shem Tov Matthew). This cause confusion and is understandable. We see in this passage that Y'shua only talks about the angels and man and "that day" He is referring to Heaven and Earth passing away, not His Coming. When will Heaven and Erath pass away (new heaven and new earth come)? This we read in Rev_21:1 where John describes the events AFTER the Coming of Messiah, AFTER the 1000 year reign of Peace and AFTER the Great Tribulation, Mat_24:27-30. Y'shua comes after the "Great Tribulation" and He knows when He is coming because He is one with the Father. Rev 21 describes the New Heaven and the New Earth after YHVH has cleansed it with fire to prepare for the New Jerusalem to come down from Heaven. Of "this day", the day when YHVH (the Father) and Y'shua (Jesus) will come down (in New Jerusalem) to live with man on the earth forever, of THIS DAY and HOUR no one knows. We can still learn from Prophecy when to expect the Coming of Messiah and His Coming will be preceded by the events called the "Time of Sorrows" Mat_24:6-8, followed by the "Great Tribulation". We need to study the Word so that we will be able to discern. Luk 12:56 Hypocrites! You know to discern the face of the heaven and the earth, but how is it that you do not discern this time? We will be able to discern the Times as pre warned and outlined in Matt 24 so that we can be ready and warn others to repent and prepare for His Coming. The difference is that YHVH sealed up the knowledge of the end times for those living in the end and will only be revealed as the time draw near. 1Th 5:1-6 But of the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you. (2) For you yourselves KNOW ACCURATELY that the DAY OF YHVH comes like a thief in the night. (3) For when they shall say, Peace and safety! Then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail upon a woman with child. And they shall not escape. (4) But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that the Day should overtake you like a thief. (5) You are all the sons of light and the sons of the day. We are not of the night, or of darkness. (6) Therefore let us NOT SLEEP as the rest do, but let us WATCH and be calm. Rev 1:3 Blessed is the one who reads and hears the Words of this
83
prophecy, and the ones keeping the things written in it, for the time is near. What do we learn from Revelation about the Time that is near? The events starts of with the Seven Seals describing the Four Horses that will precede the Great Tribulation. White Horse (Drive towards Global Peace and Unity through New World Order), Red Horse (Wars and rumours of wars), Pale Horse (Pestilences, Plagues / Disasters) and lastly the Black Horse (Financial Crisis and Food Shortages). Do we see these Four Horses running in the world today? We will know the season of His Coming. Mat_24:32-33, in the parable of the fig tree. Season is the Hebrew word ―mo-ed‖ that means ―Appointed Time‖ and is also translated as Festival. YHVH gave us His 7 Festivals to give us His Restoration Plan that involves the End Time events and fulfilment of all 7 Festivals. Yes, we will not know the hour or the day, but we will know the ―Mo-ed‖ or Season. The purpose of this document is to see which year this might be possible since we know the season or Festival that will announce the Second Coming of Messiah; the Feast of Trumpets or Yom Teruah. Even if you do not observe these Festivals, please bear with me as I point out the possible Timeline and possible year of the Second Coming of Y‘shua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) so that we as Children of the Almighty God and Creator of Heaven and Earth will not be in darkness and be overtaken by it as a thief in the night. Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge... Know the Word, learn the Prophecies, especially Daniel, Matthew and Revelation. Know what to look for and watch so that you will not be caught out unprepared like the five foolish virgins. Read Matt 25.
What does Daniel’s 70 weeks mean? YHVH created the world in 7 days and then He rested. Creation is over 6000 years old and we are approaching the beginning of the 7th Millennium and then humanity will enter YHVH‘s rest (1000 years of peace). Before we enter His rest we must past through the ―time of trouble‖ or the Tribulation. YHVH, after the judgment of the earth by water, said that man will only become 120 years old. If you count all the Jubilee years from Adam, you end up at the end of the 6th Millennium. This is in line with the Creation pattern and matches entering YHVH‘s final rest after the Great Tribulation.
84
Now, turning our attention to Daniel, the angel sent to him told Daniel to understand, so lets see what we can understand beginning in Daniel 9:23: Daniel 9:23 At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to show [thee]; for thou [art] greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision. The simplicity is astonishing. We are going to read it just like it literally is presented, and apply it to a graph. Beginning with Daniel 9:24 we will plot each verse individually. Daniel is now told that 70 weeks are given to make an end of sin and to anoint the most Holy. With both accomplished, (1) no sin and (2) the Most Holy anointed, it can only mean one thing; from some type of a starting point there is a 70 week period until YHVH‘s rest starts: Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks (Shavuah) are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
The above verse (v.24) may be one of the most sought after verses to understand in the scriptures. Men have tried to apply this in all kind of ways hoping that it would reveal its secret. Maybe it just wasn‘t in YHVH‘s timing for it to be understood before now, because the literal understanding of what it really describes is very plain. The word weeks was translated from the Hebrew word Shavuah meaning a period of Seven and also Feast of Weeks, one of the seven Feasts of YHVH: SHAVUAH (shaw-boo'-ah); Noun Masculine, Strong #: 7620: seven, period of seven (days or years), heptad, week; Feast of Weeks (Shavuot) Exo 34:22
85
In the original Hebrew, Shavuah is in plural form; meaning FeastS of Weeks rather than only one Feast of Weeks. This verse reads: ―Seventy Shavuahs or Shavuots are determined.‖ Shavuot is one of the feasts call ―The Feast of Weeks‖ ( known as Pentecost in the Christian churches). There is only one ―Feast of Weeks‖ per year. To extend the clarity to the fullness of the verse, it literally reads, ―Seventy Feasts of Weeks‖ (or 70 Yrs) are determined from some starting point unto YHVH‘s Rest.
Daniel 9:25 Know therefore and understand, [that] from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince [shall be] seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks (69 shavuot): the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. Now that we have verse 24 plotted correctly, we simply continue to the next verses in the Daniel sequence and plot all of them all to understand. In verse 25 we are told that from the going forth of a commandment to restore will be seven week, threescore and two (69 Yrs) unto the Messiah. Now YHVH has now revealed the starting point is a commandment to restore Jerusalem. From the time this commandment is given to restore until the Messiah‘s return will be a total of 69 years:
Daniel 9:26 And AFTER threescore and two weeks [62] shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof [shall be] with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. Next, in verse 26, Daniel is told from this same starting point (commandment to restore) the years will come and go until 3 score and 2 weeks have passed (62 yrs). Sometime after this 62yr period has passed, the sanctuary will be destroyed by the prince of the people (the antichrist). Notice the period left from the 62-year marker to the 69-year marker just happens to leave a remaining 7-year period: STARTING POINT + 70 years = When YHVH‘s REST Starts
86
So we have a STARTING POINT, and from this point we have 69 years and 62 years and a difference of 7 years that is referred to as a WEEK. This difference between the 62years and the 69 years shows us the beginning of a 7-year period prior to entering YHVH‘s REST and this is known as Daniel‘s prophetic week. Daniel 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. In the midst of this prophetic week (7 yr period) two major things happen as recorded in verse 27 below; he, the antichrist, will cause the altar to be shut down and the abomination that makes Jerusalem desolate: STARTING POINT + 70 years = When YHVH‘s REST Starts
The Temple DOES NOT have to be completely rebuilt to fulfil Dan 9:27 prophecy. If a corner stone is set, the court can be measured to establish the location of the altar. Then, with the altar up and operating, this prophecy is satisfied. This was the same procedure used to rebuild the Temple in ancient times too. The walls were restored AFTER the altar was operating.
The Midst of the Week – Start of the Great Tribulation. Now that we have the whole Daniel ―week‖ prophecies plotted in a chart form, all that is necessary now is to discern what the starting point is. Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week. And in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease, and on a corner of the altar desolating abominations, even until the end. And that which was decreed shall be poured on the desolator. Y‘shua referred to Daniel concerning the latter days and He referred to the abomination of spoken by Daniel. Matthew 24:15-16 When you therefore shall see the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso reader, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: Matthew 24:20-21 But pray you that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day: For then shall be GREAT TRIBULATION
87
such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. When we see the sign of the Abomination of Desolation spoken of by Daniel, then the Great Tribulation will start. This will be a point in the midst of Daniel‘s Week as seen in Dan 9:27; the sacrifice will cease and the Abomination will be set up. Dan 12:11-12 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the DESOLATING ABOMMINATION set up, a thousand two hundred and ninety days (1290) shall occur. (12) Blessed is he who waits and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days (1335).
1290 days divided by 365.25 = 3.53 years, confirming the previous statement resulting in a three and a half year Tribulation period, starting from the Abomination of desolation event and the seizing of daily sacrifices. This will start in the midst of the WEEK and will be the start of the Great Tribulation.
When is the STARTING POINT of this Timeline? We have determined the start of the Week of Daniel and the starting point of the Great Tribulation in the midst of this Week and now we need to track back and determine the starting point and beginning of the 70 years and 69 years to see when we can expect Daniel‘s Week and the Great Tribulation might start. STARTING POINT + 70 years = YHVH‘s REST
The STARTING POINT will be the time when the commandment to build up Israel will realise and this is linked to the passage in Matt 24:32-34 where Yeshua spoke of the fig tree that will bring forth leaves and eventually bud. Matthew 24:32-34 Now learn a parable of the fig tree (Israel) When his branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves you know that summer [is] nigh: So likewise you, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, [even] at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation (ours) shall not pass (70 years), till all these things be fulfilled. Jeremiah received the vision of two baskets of figs, which represented Israel: "Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away captive of Judah" (Jer. 24:5). Israel is the FIG TREE and the budding of the FIG TREE was when Israel became a nation in 1948. This Commandment went out 29 Nov 1947 and fulfilled both Dan 9:25 and Matt 24:32-34. Nov. 29, 1947 -- the day the U.N. General Assembly voted 33-13 to partition Palestine into a Jewish state and an Arab state. The parable of the fig tree pointed to us the generation that will not pass until Daniel‘s 70 weeks are fulfilled. One generation is an average of 70 years not 40 years. The average age of those who were afraid to go to war and take the promise land was
88
about 30yrs old; plus 40 more years for that generation to die in the wilderness equals 70 years. If we take 1947 as the starting point of the FIG TREE or when Israel became a Nation, that is when the STRATING POINT is for DANIEL‘s TIMELINE.
As written in Daniel 9:25, the spoken commandment starts the 70yr count. Using the United Nations (no matter whether they are an enemy or not), that verse was fulfilled of YHVH on November 29, 1947 (UN Resolution No. 181) purposing the fig tree nation, Israel, to be restored as a nation again that came to pass in 1948. Now just fill in the years: 2017 2016 2010
2013
89
Further conformation of the Timeline: o o o
From Abraham (1947 BC) to the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD, after the crucifixion of Y‘shua, there is 2017 years. Is it a coincidence that there are 70 years from Israel becoming a nation in 1947, to the year 2017? Is it a coincidence that there are 1947 years from the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD to the year 2017? Very interesting!
Conformation of Daniel’s Timeline - Sabbatical and Jubilee Years A Sabbatical year is the year after every seven years where YHVH commanded Israel to let the land rest. A jubilee year is the year after every seven Sabbatical years. Why is this important to know?
The Jubilee year or 50th year was when YHVH commanded that every servant to be set free, people who lost their land is given back their land and all the dept of everybody were cancelled. This is exactly what YHVH‘s REST is all about and where our debt will be taken away (penalty for sin), where we will receive back the land that you lost (return to the land
90
of Israel as part of Israel). This is where you will be set free as a servant of sin and the flesh and where you will receive a renewed body and be restored back into the presence of YHVH as it was in the garden of Eden. Before sin came into the world. These Cycles are also important in studying the end times because YHVH will let His Restoration and Redemption Plan fit into the same pattern coming into fulfilment. This means that we will enter into His rest on a Jubilee year and significant historical events that fulfil prophecy will be in sink with these Sabbatical and Jubilee years because that is how YHVH works, fulfilling Scripture within the detail of every aspect of His Word.
Since 1967 was a very significant date in Israel‘s history, lets assume it is a Jubilee year and work our way back through history to see if we can find ―witnesses‖ that will confirm this date as a Jubilee year. 1. Six Day War of 1967 – First Jubilee year. 2. Remember that a Jubilee year is every 50 years and going back 50 years from 1967 brings us to 1917 that was the end of the Ottoman Islamic rule, which was significant in Israel‘s history. 3. 50 years back from there brings us to the second ―witness‖ date of 1867 - the final emancipation of the Jews in Austria-Hungry, also very significant. 4. The greatest ―witness‖ to confirm 1967 as a Jubilee year is if you go back 44 x 50 years in history and we end up at 333 BC where Alexander the Great (2nd Beast) conquered Medes & Persians (1st Beast). This confirms that 1967 was a Jubilee year and 2017 is the next significant Jubilee year, which is a very significant date in Daniel Timeline and End Time Events. This will be the time where YHVH‘s people will enter into His REST and enter into His Kingdom and live in the Land that will be restored back to them as depicted in the Commandment of Jubilee years. We will look at the detail of this Timeline and see where 2017 fits in next. How awesome is our God to fulfil His Plan within the blueprint of His Sabbatical and Jubilee Cycles and establishing His Restoration Plan as stated in the Torah regarding Jubilee years!
91
Heb 4:4-11 For He spoke in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: "And YHVH rested the seventh day from all His works." (5) And in this place again, "They shall not enter into My rest." (6) Since then it remains that some must enter into it, and since they to whom it was first preached did not enter in because of unbelief, (7) He again marks out a certain day, saying in David, "Today," (after so long a time). Even as it is said, "Today, if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts." (8) For if Joshua (Yeshua) had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day. (9) So then there remains a rest (Sabbath) to the people of Elohim. (10) For he who has entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as Elohim did from His. (11) Therefore let us labor to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of unbelief. If this Timeline is True, then we see the STARTING POINT at 1947, where the Commandment of rebuilding Israel started, confirmed by the fig tree parable, the Starting point for the Prophetic Week on a Sabbatical year in 2010 and the end on a Sabbatical year in 2016. We then see the Midst of the Week in 2013, which is the starting point for the Great Tribulation. The starting point if the Great Tribulation needs to be confirmed by two signs in Israel; the Daily Sacrifices needs to be stopped and the Abomination of Desolation (Image of the Antichrist) to be set up in the Holy Place (Temple Mount) Dan 12:10-13, Matt 24:15-22. For the Daily Sacrifices to start there needs to be an Altar (no need for a Temple) and the Altar has been constructed on 22 Jul 2009 linked to a Lunar Eclipse. All the Jews need now is permission to put the Altar on the Temple Mount and to start the Daily Sacrifices – the fulfilment of Dan 12:10-13 is possible any time NOW! Remember that this timeline can only be confirmed by the fulfilment of this prophecy and these two signs.
Fulfilment of the last Three of ALL Seven Festivals. Y‘shua (Jesus) fulfilled only 4 of the 7 Feasts of YHVH during His First Coming [Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, Pentecost] and He will fulfill the Last 3 Festivals during His Second Coming. The fulfilment of these Festivals will happen during and after the Great Tribulation and when these two signs (Stop Sacrifices / Image set up) are confirmed, the Great Tribulation will start and will last 1290 days (3,5 years – midst of the WEEK – Dan 11:12). The Prophetic Week will Start on a Sabbatical year (2010) and will end on a Sabbatical year (2016) with the Great Tribulation starting in its midst (If this Timeline is confirmed). The end of the Tribulation will be 1290 days later when Y‘shua (Jesus) will come as described in Matt 24:29:31; immediately AFTER the TRIBULATION. Mat 24:29-31
29 And immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days, the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.30 AND THEN the sign of the Son of Man shall appear in the heavens. And then all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, and they shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds of the heaven with power and great glory. 31 And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
The sign of the Son of Man will happen on the Feast of Trumpets (fulfilling it) because it is in line with the passage where the Messiah will come at the blowing of the 7th Trumpet which is the LAST trumpet described in 1 Col 15:51-53, which is the First Resurrection (Righteous) or better known as the Rapture, where the righteous living and dead will be changed and meet the Messiah in the air.
92
The next event will be the Final Judgement that will come on the ―Feast‖ (Fast) Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) and that will happen within the 45 days after the end of the Tribulation. This will bring us to the fulfilment of the last of the 7 Festivals; the Feast of Tabernacles, where YHVH will Tabernacle with His people forever. This is known as YHVH‘s REST and starts of with the 1000 years of peace described in Rev 20:6 where the elect will reign with Messiah a 1000 years. This Rest of YHVH is where the Wedding Feast of the Bride of Messiah will take place, celebrating the arrival of the Bride at Her Home where She will live with YHVH forever.
We enter into YHVH‘s Rest through faith in the One Who leads us into the Promised Land, just like Joshua led Israel into Canaan. Israel had to go through the Jordan River (Jordan means Judgment) and everybody have to go through the ―Time of Jacob‘s Trouble‖ or the Tribulation before entering into His Rest.
Possible Timeline starting the Great Tribulation
93
Note: This is not to predict the end times or set a date, it is merely to link the feast days with the end time events and to overlay them with current world events that are prophesied in the Scriptures. The End Time events can be interpreted by the symbol of a watch. The hour arm of the watch represents the historical and future long term events which are the First and Second Comings of Messiah. The hour arm is currently in between the First and the Second Coming. We are approaching the Second Coming but we need more up to date information to see how close we are. This is indicated by prophesies that were fulfilled within the ―seasons‖ of the Festivals. The hour arm represents the Festivals or Appointed Times that will line up with future events as the clock arm goes around every year.
What to look for when? We need to look for the signs that will signal the beginning of the Tribulation in line with the Appointed Time or Season that has the ―theme‖ of that event. For example, the Tribulation will end at the sound of the Last Trumpet, which is in line with the Feast of Trumpets. This means that the beginning of the Tribulation will definitely be on a Passover when you count back 3,5 years from Trumpets. This means that we need to look for the signs signalling the beginning of the Tribulation at the time of a Passover or just prior to the feast. What can we expect to see? We need to see the sacrifices started and stopped and the Abomination of desolation set up in the Holy Place to confirm that Passover as the starting Passover leading us into the Great Tribulation. What will the Abomination of Desolation look like? It can be someone coming into the ―Holy Place‖ i.e. Israel/Jerusalem and announce the dividing of the Land of Israel that will take away Jerusalem from the Jews and stop their ―sacrifices‖ i.e. Prayers at the Western wall. This is a possibility that can fit the prophetic pattern to fulfil it. 2013 Events of note: We saw in 2013 on 20 March (10th of Nissan) how Obama entered the ―Holy Place‖, just like Y‘shua entered the City to be examined. Obama was received with open arms and nothing he said was found unacceptable. Obama had an agenda to divide the Land of Israel (see video prior to his visit) and he made reference to it without any opposition (see video). Obama as well as other leaders spoke about peace and security (safety) that can be fulfilling 1 Th 5 1Th 5:1-4 But of the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you. (2) For you yourselves know accurately that the day of YHVH comes like a thief in the night. (3) For when they shall say,
94
PEACE and SAFETY! Then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail upon a woman with child. And they shall not escape. (4) But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that the Day should overtake you like a thief. What if it is not the Passover of 2013? Then we will have to look for the signs at the Passover of 2014. Then the timeline will look as follows:
It can be a possibility for the timing to be out by a year because of the 1947/1948 date that could be either or. Nov 1947 33 countries voted that Israel should become a Jewish state but it was only on May 14, 1948, that the Jewish People's Council declared the establishment of the State of Israel. Then on 20 July 1949 the Final armistice agreement was concluded, which can move the whole timeline out yet another year. (according to Daniel‘s timeline). This means that the Great Tribulation can begin at Passover 2013, or at Passover 2014, or at Passover 2015. The only way to confirm one of these dates will be the fulfilment of Daniel‘s prophecy regarding the sacrifices and the Abomination of Desolation. Only Prophecy can have the final say on when the day and the hour will be, until those events happen, no one will know….keep watching. Source: Daniel‘s Timeline - Video

11. Transhumanism and the Prophecy of Enoch by Tom Horn Transhumanism is an international intellectual and cultural movement supporting the use of science and technology to improve human mental and physical characteristics and capacities. The movement regards aspects of the human condition, such as disability, suffering, disease, aging, and involuntary death as unnecessary and undesirable. Transhumanists look to biotechnologies and other emerging technologies for these purposes. Dangers, as well as benefits, are also of concern to the transhumanist movement. The term "transhumanism" is symbolized by H+ or h+ and is often used as a synonym for "human enhancement".Although the first known use of the term dates from 1957, the contemporary meaning is a product of the 1980s when futurists in the United States began to organize what has since grown into the transhumanist movement. Transhumanist thinkers predict that human beings may eventually be able to transform themselves into beings with such greatly expanded abilities as to merit the label "posthuman". Transhumanism is therefore sometimes referred to as "posthumanism" or a form of transformational activism influenced by posthumanist ideals. The transhumanist vision of a transformed future humanity has attracted many supporters and detractors from a wide range of perspectives. Transhumanism has been described by one critic, Francis Fukuyama, as the world's most dangerous idea, while one proponent, Ronald Bailey, counters that it is the "movement that epitomizes the most daring, courageous, imaginative, and idealistic aspirations of humanity Genesis 6 and the Book of Enoch list the facts of Giants that came into being through the manipulation of humans with the fallen angels. It also states that human seed have been mixed with animals and even plants. The coming of the Giants led to cannibalism as they could not find enough plants and animals to eat. This caused the wroth of YHVH to come down on the earth with the flood in Noah‘s time. This is called the First Judgment. Watch this excellent Video from Dr. Tom Horn discussing this controversial issue. In our scientific community their have been a lot of things happening regarding the alteration of man‘s DNA, cloning and producing a ―super race‖ that will give new meaning to what we know as being human. This science is called ―black science‖ and has been in existence for many years, funded secretly with tax payers money to do the research. The modern name for this is transhumanism, the science of changing humanity into a better, more supernatural being. They mix human DNA with the likes of wild animals to produce super sight and hearing abilities, to have super strength and to live longer.
96
These technologies have been developed by the help of the ―fallen angels‖ that we know as ―aliens‖ today. In 1947 in Rosewell Mexico, an ―Alien Ship‖ crashed into the desert and since then, there have been a lot of development, even exponentially, to the amazement of humanity. Could this event be seen in the same light as what happened back in Noah‘s time where the Fallen Angels or Nephiliem taught man how to make weapons, dye fabrics, use makeup, make strong liquor, taught them about the solar system and about the spiritual world and the occult.? I would suggest the same thing is happening to us and it started in 1947. According to the Book of Enoch, there is a Prophecy that the Nephiliem or Fallen Angels that have been bound up under the mountains in the earth, that they will be released 70 generations after the Noah‘s Flood. Scientists estimate the event of the Flood to have happened back approximately 2900 BC. If you count 70 generations from there you can expect it to happen from 2008/2009. (can be out by couple of years). This will be the event described in Revelation with the blowing of the fifth Trumpet during the Great Tribulation. Rev 9:1-10 And the fifth angel sounded. And I saw a star fall from the heaven to the earth, and it was given the key of the abyss. (2) And it opened the bottomless pit. And there arose a smoke out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace. And the sun and air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit. (3) And out of the smoke came forth locusts onto the earth. And authority was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have authority. (4) And they were commanded not to hurt the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God in their foreheads. (5) And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months. And their torment was like a scorpion's torment when he stings a man. (6) And in those days men will seek death and will not find it. And they will long to die, and death will flee from them. (7) And the shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for battle. And on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. (8) And they had hairs like the hairs of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions. (9) And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron. And the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. (10) And they had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails. And their authority was to hurt men five months.
97
It could also be the army of 200 000 000 from the blowing of the sixth trumpet: Rev 9:15-19 And the four angels were loosed, who were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, in order to slay the third part of men. (16) And the number of the armies of the horsemen was two myriads of myriads. And I heard their number. (17) And so I saw the horses in the vision, and those sitting on them, having breastplates of fire, even dusky red and brimstone. And the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions. And out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. (18) By these three the third part of men was killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone which issued out of their mouths. (19) For their authority is in their mouth and in their tails. For their tails were like serpents with heads, and with them they do harm.
98
These are supernatural beings and they form an army of 200 000 000 who slay and third part of all humanity during that time on the earth. This is the Second Judgment that YHVH prepared for the same sin; altering the seed of man and altering and perverting His creation. It might not happen in 2009, going back 70 generations and estimating the time of the flood might be out by a few years, but it does not change the fact that this prophecy is kept for the end time judgment and destruction of the wicked during the time of the Tribulation.

12. Exo-Vaticana – The Last Pope & the Vatican’s ET Connection Christians will not immediately need to renounce their faith in God “simply on the basis of the reception of [this] new, unexpected information of a religious character from extraterrestrial civilizations.” However, once the “religious content” originating from outside the earth “has been verified” they will have to conduct “a re-reading [of the Gospel] inclusive of the new data…”

The Final Pope - Petrus Romanus Pope Benedict XVI has resigned as Pope, just like the authors predicted he would do in their 2012 best-seller Petrus Romanus: The Final Pope Is Here. Since then Tom Horn and Cris Putnam have been inundated with invitations from around the world to be interviewed on radio, television, and in print media. Jesuit whose meticulous analysis of the Prophecy of the Popes predicted the arrival of Petrus Romanus in this era), and dozens more. The author's disclosed an "extraterrestrial" connection between Petrus Romanus, the Vatican, and the Mount Graham Observatory, which rocketed that program into the #1 position in the world, illustrating to the authors that modern civilization is more than casually interested not only in the final pope, but in the connection between Rome and their secret work on extraterrestrial intelligence, astrobiology, and the intriguing preparations they are making for the arrival of an alien 'savior.' Thus, the new investigation began and quickly resulted in findings far more disturbing than the authors expected to find.
Petrus Romanus - The False Prophet and the Antichrist Are Here The following series of articles, „PETRUS ROMANUS‟ have been reproduced from raidersnewsupdate.com. The series began in 2012 with the following article and continues.

Malachy’s head was spinning; he was short of breath, gasping, and a cold chill flushed his face. He wondered: was he about to meet the Lord or was he having another sorcerous vision? He wanted rest. Bernard, oh where is Bernard? Then he remembered, confusion…so much confusion over the papacy. The words came fast and furious again. Phrases in liturgical Latin danced in his mind. Had the devil taken the papacy? Schismaticus, popes and antipopes, power-mad, political posturing in the house of God. The prophecies of the popes writhed in his feverish conscience; the dragon…oh no the dragon, Draco depreſſus and then Anguinus uir was this to be a serpentine pope? Just last year, on the twenty-fifth of January, 1138, the antipope Anacletus had died, finally allowing the appointed Innocent II to ascend the Holy See. When the conspiring Cardinals had launched their coup, the opposed Innocent II fled Rome under his given name, Gregorio Papareschi, finding refuge with dear Bernard at the abbey. It was just this year Pope Innocent had reclaimed the Holy See prompting this pilgrimage from Ireland to Rome. The fatigue began to fade and Malachy recalled what led him here to Janiculum Hill on this day. After his arduous journey from Ireland to Rome, only a brief respite at the Clairvaux Abbey in the Vallée d’Absinthe had given him hope. Yet, despite his fondness for Bernard, the bitterness of wormwood had infected his soul. He had requested permission from his holiness to end his days with his loyal friend Bernard in retreat at the abbey. Unfortunately, the Pontiff had only increased his responsibilities, making him Papal Legate for all of Ireland. But Malachy was weary of it all—so very tired. What was driving the Pope so hard? Had not Christ admonished His disciples, “but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister?” (Matthew 20:26 KJV).The beast was coming one day and Malachy knew it… Bellua inſatiabilis. It was then that he knew the popes had taken the unspeakable bargain and there was no taking it back. After the fullness of time, Petrus Romanus would mark the end of Mysterium Babylon magna.
St Malachy (1094 - 1148) The Man Who Foresaw the Final Pope? In the modest settlement of Armagh, in the beautiful, sweeping, emerald lands of Northern Ireland, in the year 1094, a nobleman and chief by the name of Lector Ua Morgair and his well-cultured wife celebrated the dawning of new life in their son, Máel Máedóc Ua Morgair. Neither of them could have known how the tiny boy they had just delivered would become a central figure in End-Times prophecy.
101
Little Máel Máedóc Ua Morgair (anglicized to the more modern ―Malachy‖) lived his early, boyish days skipping amidst the comfortable sounds and familiar, candlelit ambiance of the Armagh Cathedral. He remained educated under the personal tutelage of his learned father, Lector of Armagh, until the fateful day of Lector‘s death in the year 1102. Malachy and his brother and sister were then raised by his mother alone, a woman who had been described as ―A dutiful, Christian woman‖[i] by St. Bernard de Clairvaux. As the years progressed, Malachy continued his studies under the mentorship of Imar (also spelled ―Imhar‖) O‘Haglan: a man who focused his teachings on renouncing earthly pleasures to preserve the eternal soul. Following in O‘Haglan‘s ascetical footsteps, Malachy showed astute perception within the walls of the cathedral and the shabby cell beneath where O‘Haglan spent his days like a hermit. Despite the protests of his sister and school acquaintances when self-flagellation, penance, and other religious practices grew to be ultimately more important than becoming an inspired professor like his father before him, Malachy continued searching for opportunities to express his passion for the Church and the life he believed he was chosen to lead. Drawing everyday nearer to the effects of O‘Haglan‘s authority and vision, Malachy soon introduced Gregorian chants into his regime, and a zeal for Church reform. By the age of twenty-two, the archbishop Cellach of Armagh (also spelled ―Ceollach‖ and ―Celsus‖), a good acquaintance to O‘Haglan, found such promise and exception in the young man that he put aside canonical law and ordained the youth as a deacon three years prior to custom. In 1119, he declared Malachy vicar-general and entrusted him with the duty of reforming the diocese while he was away. The changes observed in the diocese were immediate and extraordinary. Malachy‘s sermons of penance ignited a passion in the common people and stirred the laity to respect canonical rules of the Church. Eventually Malachy headed to Lismore to revise and sharpen his knowledge of the canon under the teaching and advice of well-known scholar Bishop Malchus. (St. Bernard writes that Bishop Malchus was ―an old man, full of days and virtues, and the wisdom of God was in him.‖[ii] He goes on to further explain that the bishop was later acknowledged as performing two miracles, one wherein he healed a young boy of a mental disorder who later became his porter, and another wherein ―when the saint put his fingers into his ears on either side he perceived that two things like little pigs came out of them.‖[iii] These distinctions of Bishop Malchus‘ reputation are of importance to St. Bernard, ―that it may be known to all what sort of preceptor Malachy had in the knowledge of holy things.‖[iv] Needless to say, Malachy worked and studied with associates whose names circulated within the Church as significant.) Though his trip to Lismore was meant for a time of quiet learning, Malachy‘s was not idle there, taking opportunities to speak out on current affairs within the Church that concerned him, and was often sent by Malchus himself ―to preach the word of God to the people and to correct many evil practices which had developed over the years. He achieved notable success. To reform the clergy he instituted regulations concerning celibacy and other ecclesiastical discipline, and reinstituted the recitation of the canonical hours. Most importantly, he gave back the sacraments to the
102
common people, sending good priests among them to instruct the ignorant. He returned to Armagh in 1123.‖[v] This same year, Malachy was appointed Abbot of Bangor where he assisted in helping rebuild the abbey and establish a seminary. More importantly, from this time forward, a series of miracles and the gift of prophecy were attributed to him. One notable prophecy, especially hard to chalk up to pure coincidence, finds fulfillment in the twentieth century: Ireland will suffer English oppression for a week of centuries [700 years], but will preserve her fidelity to God and His Church. At the end of that time she will be delivered, and the English in turn must suffer severe chastisement. Ireland, however, will be instrumental in bringing back the English to the unity of Faith. Complete Anglo-Norman domination of Ireland was achieved a century after Malachy‘s prediction. Independence for the southern part of Ireland came 700 years later in the early 20th century. If this utterance is not apocryphal, then it predates the schism between the Church of England and the Catholic faith by four centuries and implies that Anglicanism will falter sometime in our near future when the final pope finishes his reign.[vi] Yet, Yves DuPont argues this began in the twelfth century and ended after WW2. He says, ―The liberation has come in stages: World War I, independence within the British Empire; World War II, complete independence. Thus, Ireland was under British rule for seven centuries.‖[vii] However, it just as likely applies to the rampant secularism in England ultimately being conquered by Christianity. Final part of the prophesies in Lingnum Vitae (1595)
At thirty years of age, Malachy became Bishop Malachy of Down and Connor. John Hogue says of Malachy‘s new position: ―The bishopric was considered one of Ireland‘s blackest holes for the faith. Malachy would face a moratorium on church tithes, a shortage of priests and an even greater shortage of celibate clerics; he would wince at the improvised performances of the sacraments based on the rejection of canon law in favor of native and often semi-pagan Irish rituals.‖[viii] With passion, yet still humble as a true servant of God, Malachy spoke out about Church reform and continuously brought more and more attention to himself as a true trailblazer. Never before had Malachy seen such lax cohesion to the laws of God within the walls of the Church. Discipline, offering, tithing, giving of the first-fruits, and going to confession were things of the past; marriages were made illegally. Christians
103
behaved like pagans. ―Never had he found men so shameless in regard of morals, so dead in regard of rites, so impious in regard of faith, so barbarous in regard of laws, so stubborn in regard of discipline, so unclean in regard of life.‖[ix] Nevertheless, believing that he was a ―shepherd and not a hireling,‖[x] Malachy fought the issues head-on and in his enthusiasm, discovered followers who were willing to flock to his side to reestablish devotion to the rituals. About this time according to legend, Malachy had a dream in which a woman appeared to him and revealed her identity as Archbishop Cellach‘s wife. She handed Mallachy a pastoral staff, and then disappeared. He shared this with those in his company and it was esteemed important because for approximately fifteen generations by this time in Armagh, people high up in both secular politics and the Church had maintained office within family hierarchies. As a result, it was normal to nominate a successor to the seat of the archbishop by heritage instead of Church works. Archbishop Cellach, however, impressed by Malachy‘s ministry, rejected the expectations of his family in this regard. Hoping that Malachy could bring new life and hope to the Church, and wanting to put a stop to hereditary succession of the office, Cellach charged those under him with the task of spreading word that Malachy would be given his seat as Archbishop of Armagh. When the word reached Malachy, it came as no surprise after the dream he‘d had, and just days after Cellach passed away, Malachy received Cellach‘s staff (the one from his dream), and a letter confirming the news of his latest promotion. Cellach‘s family was outraged. Feeling usurped by his decision to appoint someone outside the family as archbishop, tension rose between them and Malachy. Cellach‘s cousin, Murtagh (also spelled ― Murtough‖ and ―Muirchetrach‖), fancied himself worthy of the role, and his family stood behind him in his campaign to become archbishop, ready even to use force to claim the position if necessary. The people of the Church fell in support of Malachy, equally ready for the hereditary succession of the office to end. Three years passed while Malachy remained at the monastery, not refusing the archbishopric but unwilling to participate in a war between Murtagh and the Church. The papal legate eventually became revolted enough by Murtagh‘s tyranny that the Church ordered Malachy, by threat of impending excommunication, to take his position. Malachy conceded and in response to the order, accepted his bishopric from a distance to avoid the mayhem of political/religious war. He made a deal with the legate that if the Church was ever fully restored to freedom in matters of succession, in return he wanted a leave from leadership so that he might find time to be alone in his studies and away from obligatory office. Remaining safely just outside the city, he maintained governance as the acknowledged Archbishop of Armagh, without immediately taking possession of his See. When Murtagh passed away in 1134, he revealed that Niall, Cellach‘s brother, would be his successor. During this time, the people generally believed that anyone in possession of the crosier of St. Patrick (the Bachal Isu, of ―Staff of Jesus‖) and the Book of Gospels (or Holy Book) was the true archbishop. In lieu of this, Niall saw and seized his opportunity to appear the legitimate and rightful archbishop by stealing these two artifacts from the cathedral of Armagh. Although history is cloudy when it comes to the issue of retrieving the stolen artifacts from Niall (most records point to a small war between the two sides, which was rumored to be brought to an end by diplomacy from Malachy, followed by his purchasing the artifacts back from Niall), Malachy did eventually get them back and take his place as primate in the cathedral city of Armagh. ―In 1138, having broken the tradition of hereditary succession, rescued Armagh from oppression, restored ecclesiastical discipline, re-established
104
Christian morals, and seeing all things tranquil, Malachy resigned his post as originally agreed.‖[xi] Malachy retired to Bangor to live in rest for a time, among the camaraderie of his fellow monks, but with few demands on his schedule or solitary study. Eventually Malachy felt the need to gain meeting with Pope Innocent II in Rome to officially recognize the archbishops (and the Sees) of Armagh and Cashel with a pallium, an official woolen cloak of authority, for each to signify the bishopric jurisdiction over the ecclesiastical provinces and to gain favor and blessing from the papal for the developments within the Church. In 1139, he gathered a few travelling companions and pack animals and headed to Rome through Scotland, England, and France. It was during his travels that he arrived at the Cistercian Abbey of Clairvaux, where he met the future-saint Bernard (who would later be his central biographer). Resting there for a short time, Malachy became enchanted with the Abbey and made a very close friendship with its abbot. Abbot Bernard was unusual in his approach to ministry. He maintained fitness of the body by practicing martial arts and kept those in his presence ready at all times to be counted upon for defending the Church at all costs. He proved to be such a wellspring of religious passion for Malachy that when the time came for him to leave the abbey and continue his pilgrimage to Rome, Malachy made a secret plan to ask for retirement in the seclusion of Clairvaux. Sixteen months after the journey began Malachy finally arrived in Rome, his heart and mind lifted and hopeful. Quickly, he was brought to Pope Innocent II for official audience. Innocent approved Malachy‘s request for the pallia but with strict conditions: Malachy would take on new responsibilities. He was now the Papal Legate of Ireland with all of its ensuing political intricacies. This was not what he had wanted; he so desperately desired the peace and serenity of the Abbey. It was upon leaving the seven-hilled city so frustrated, framed by the breathtaking Western view from Janiculum Hill that it came upon him. Because of the impiety of the popes, Rome would burn. As the legend goes, Malachy experienced what is today considered a famous vision commonly called ―The Prophecy of the Popes.‖ The prophecy is a list of Latin verses predicting each of the Roman Catholic popes from Pope Celestine II to the final pope, ―Peter the Roman,‖ whose reign would end in the destruction of Rome. According to this ancient prophecy, the very next pope (following Benedict XVI) will be the final pontiff, Petrus Romanus or Peter the Roman.
The final segment of the prophecy reads: In persecutione extrema S. R. E. sedebit Petrus Romanus, qui pascet oves in multis tribulationibus: quibus transactis civitas septicollis deruetur et judex tremendus judicabit populum. Finis.[xii]
105
Which is rendered: In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations; when they are over, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the terrible or fearsome Judge will judge his people. The End.[xiii]
The Good News and the Bad News After studying the history of the prophecy of the popes and the surrounding scholarly literature, we have some good news and some bad news. What‘s that? You want the bad news first? Sure, no problem, let‘s get this unpleasantness out of the way. The bad news is that part of the prophecy may be a forgery which was fabricated around 1590. We say forgery meaning that over half of the prophecies, the first seventy or so predictions, are vaticinia ex eventu (prophecy from the event). It seems someone irrevocably altered the original medieval document and the original is either hidden away or lost to history. The first known publication of the ―Malachy Prophecy of the Popes‖ was in Arnold de Wion‘s massive eighteen-hundred-page volume entitled Lignum Vitae (Tree of Life), which was published in 1595. That text will be presented and examined below. Even though we have good reason to believe a much older document is still visible, we must accept that the earliest instance of the prophecy surfaced nearly four hundred years after its alleged origin in 1139. Despite the legend which pleads it was locked away in a musty Vatican vault those four hundred years, the skeptics still have valid points. Even so, it very well could be the work of Saint Malachy coarsely corrupted by a forger. Of course, this would fall neatly in line with the Roman Catholic practice demonstrated by the Donation of Constantine and Pseudo–Isidorian Decretals. Alternatively, some have suggested it was partially the work of Nostradamus cleverly disguised to protect his identity. While the identity of the actual prophet remains unclear, the author was a prophet whether he knew or not. The exciting news is that the prophecy of the popes, although tainted, is still a genuine prophecy. Despite the superficial insincerity detectable in the first section of ―prophecies,‖ the post publication predictions show astonishing fulfillments. We have no critical analysis to explain away the sometimes jaw-dropping, post-1595 fulfillments. Indeed, we are currently at 111 out of 112 and believers argue they seem to have increased in precision over time. However, we shall deal with bad news first. As we shall demonstrate, the Vatican‘s penchant for propaganda is undisputed in the record of history. In Rome‘s tradition of the altering ancient documents for political expediency, the prophecy of the popes was probably used as propaganda for Cardinal Girolamo Simoncelli papal ambitions. Nevertheless, it was a ploy which did not work as Simoncelli lost to Gregory XIV, Innocent IX, and Clement VIII. While textual evidence for this conspiracy is provided, we suggest the reader remain objective and patient in lieu of the more astounding findings. Historically, the prophecy has enjoyed mixed acceptance. Four hundred years ago, with so many more popes to go, it was a mere novelty. However, as time runs short, the forecast understandably becomes more urgent and the criticism more caustic. Accordingly, beginning in the nineteenth century, the Jesuits, save one, have been
106
outspokenly critical. As a result, the most recent edition of the Catholic Encyclopedia suggests that the prophecy is a late sixteenth century forgery, while the older 1911 edition allows, ―it is not conclusive if we adopt Cucherat‘s theory that they were hidden in the Archives during those four hundred years.‖[i] He refers to the nineteenth-century author, Abbé Cucherat, who is one of the few who argued for the authenticity of the prophecy in his book, Revue du monde catholique, published in 1871. We will examine it and other positive assessments in the next chapter. Even so, most scholars point out that Malachy‘s biographer and dear friend, St. Bernard, makes no mention of the papal prophecy in Life of St. Malachy of Armagh.[ii] This argument from silence is ubiquitous in the literature. Modern academic sources are also not very charitable. The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church bluntly states, ―The so-called Prophecies of Malachy, which are contained in a document apparently composed in 1590, have no connection with St. Malachy except their erroneous attribution to him.‖[iii] Jesuit scholarship presents a united front. M.J. O‘Brien‘s An Historical and Critical Account of the So-Called Prophecy of St. Malachy Regarding the Succession of Popes is a thorough attempt at debunking. Herbert Thurston, another Jesuit, was a prolific late nineteenth-century critic. He argues that ―not one scrap of evidence has ever been adduced to show that St. Malachy‘s prophecy about the Popes had been quoted, or even heard of, before it was published by Wion in 1595.‖[iv] This is not necessarily the case as we will discuss a possible reference to the prophecy published by Nicholas Sanders in 1571. Even so, most scholars bifurcate the list of 112 Latin phrases at number 76, due to the circumstances surrounding its publication. In so doing, two layers of context are established in the prophecy. This approach is adapted from biblical scholarship. Exegesis in biblical studies is always an attempt to derive the original author‘s intention for his original reader and that is the methodology undertaken here. For instance, when scholars study the New Testament Gospels, they take into account layers of context. There is the context in which Jesus is interacting in the original historical setting and then there is a layer of context in which the author of the gospel is presenting his account to a later audience. Careful study reveals that each evangelist author, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, frames the events of Jesus‘ life in unique ways for their own theological and evangelistic purposes. The underlying context of Jesus can be assimilated by studying first-century Judaism in Israel. We study the Pharisees to understand Jesus‘ criticism of their traditions. In the same way, the upper level, the author‘s context, can be discerned by how he presents Jesus. Still, the order in which a certain account is presented in a Gospel is often unique. This requires the careful student to ―think vertically‖ for potential significance. You might ask, ―Is the author making a statement by where he places this parable?‖ The context of the evangelist author speaks to why and how he selected, arranged, and adapted the historical material about Jesus. Additionally, the scholar must ―think horizontally‖ meaning to read each pericope with awareness of the parallels in other Gospels.[v] While each of the four accounts preserves actual historical data, they are not always chronologically identical because of the secondary layer of context pertaining to the unique purpose of Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John. This methodology unveils new insights into the prophecy of the popes as well. At first glance, there appear to be at least two levels of historical context, that of the original author and then that of the publisher. We will examine the possibility of even deeper contextual layers in the next chapter but for now we might accept the Malachy legend or perhaps a pseudepigrapher as the lower contextual level. To determine the upper level, the context of the publisher/commentator, we discover that is has been suggested that a papal emissary, Nicholas Sanders (1530–1581), may have brought an original Celtic version of the prophecy to Rome during the reign of
107
Pope Pius V (1566–72).[vi] While he may have obliquely referred to the prophecy in a book published in 1571, it has also been suggested that the first specific mention of the prophecy was in a handwritten account by Don Alphonsus Ciacconus, a Spanish Dominican scholar in Rome, in the year 1590.[vii] At the time, Ciacconus was a recognized expert on ancient Greco-Roman paleography and ancient manuscripts, as well as the history of the papacy. Apparently the publisher, Dom Wion, had received the text from someone and turned to Ciacconus for his opinion. Ciacconus ostensibly authenticated the manuscript. We cannot know exactly when it was altered but the textual and circumstantial evidence points to the original manuscript being tampered with by 1589–1590, in time to promote a particular papabile. In the meantime (1590–1595), it circulated surreptitiously amongst the Cardinals creating quite a stir. Wion published it with the previous popes named and interpretations of the fulfillments added in 1595. Thus, we have discerned two layers of context: Lower level of historical context: An original document possibly by St. Malachy or a pseudepigrapher circa 1139 –1571. Upper level of historical context: Alterations imposed and interpretations added circa 1571–1595. In examining the scans of the original 1595 Latin text, even with no comprehension of Latin, one can note that that explanations of the mottos with papal names cease at time of publication. Wion claimed that Ciacconus was responsible for the interpretations but this has been called into serious question by O‘Brien, who suggests it was someone else who simply copied from Onuphrius Panvinius‘ short history of the Popes, Epitome Romanorum Pontijicum usque ad Paulum IV, printed in Venice in 1557. He bases this on the case that the interpretations presented by Wion match Panvinius‘ work but disagree with Ciacconus‘ own book about the popes, Viltae et res Gesltae Romanorum Ponlificum el Cardinalium, printed in 1601. While Ciacconius‘ work resembles Panvinius‘, it disagrees in important areas that Ciacconius made explicit. O‘Brien ponders this issue: ―Now, if Ciacconius was the interpreter of the prophecies, as Wion asserts, Ciacconius must be pitching into himself, for we find reproduced in Wion‘s book the errors of which he complains. Who then is the interpreter? Is it Panvinius? Or may not the prophecy as well as the explanation have come from the same hand? May not Wion have been merely duped (which could have been easily done considering his character); and may he not in good faith have given the prophecy as that of the great St. Malachy?‖[viii] Whoever the interpreter was, the last comment in Lignum Vitae referred to Urban VII who died in 1590 and the last papal name listed was Clement VIII who took office in 1592 just prior to the prophecy‘s 1595 publication. In reading the Latin text, underneath ―Crux Romulea…Clemens VIII,‖ the last page simply lists the remaining mottos in three columns ending with the famous apocalyptic codex centered on Petrus Romanus and the destruction of Mystery Babylon headquartered on Vatican Hill in the seven-hilled city.
108
Here is the original 1595 Latin text from Lignum Vitae:
The second paragraph above reads: ―Three Epistles of St. Bernard addressed to St. Malachy are still extant (viz., 313, 316, and 317). Malachy himself is reported to have been the author of some little tractates, none of which I have seen up to the present time, except a certain prophecy of his concerning the Sovereign Pontiffs. This, as it is short, and so far as we know, has never before been printed, is inserted here, seeing that many people have asked for it.‖
109
The bottom two lines by Wion read, ―What has been added to the popes is not the work of Malachy, but of Father Alphonsus Giacon, of the Order of Preachers, the interpreter of this prophecy.‖ This may seem confusing in light of the above discussion about Ciacconius. Gaicon is also Chacon or Ciacconius because he was from Spain, his original name, Alphonso Chacon, was Italianized to preserve the soft Spanish sound of ―ch‖ in his name into Ciacconius or alternately as Wion has it ―Giacon.‖ But this last line reveals that the original prophecy was a mere string of obscure Latin phrases, and that Giacon, Ciacconius, added each pope‘s name and explained how the prophecy applied to him. The comments end with to Urban VII who died in 1590 and the last papal name listed is Clement VIII. Since the evidence points to the prophecy appearing in 1589–90, we observe the next prophecy after Urban was ―ex antiquitate Urbis‖ which translates to ―from the old city‖ and no interpretation is offered. This is the critical point where scholars detect an attempt to influence the conclave when Gregory XIIII was opposed by one Girolamo Simoncelli. As a representative example of scholarly detective work, Louis Moreri, a native of Provence born in 1643 and doctor of theology, is chosen. He was the author of the acclaimed Dictionnaire Historique. As his life‘s work, the dictionary contains such a wide variety of information it is considered to be an early forerunner of the modern encyclopedia. In the 1759 edition, we read: ―They attribute to him [Malachy] a prophecy concerning the popes from Celestine II. To the end of the world, but the learned know that this prophecy was forged, during the conclave of 1590, by the partisans of Cardinal Simoncelli, who was designated by these words: ‗De anlzguilale Urbis,‘ because he was of Orvieto; in Latin, ‗Urbs vetus.‘‖[x] The argument ―from the old city‖ would arguably predict Girolamo Simoncelli who was at that time the Cardinal of Orvieto which also means ―old city.‖ This is the dominant opinion of Malachy scholars. The scholars are right; it does seem a little too perfect. It seems that the conspirators hoped to rig the papal conclave by encouraging the voters to fall in step with the much venerated Saint Malachy. The clever ruse failed when Simoncelli lost to Gregory XIV, albeit Gregory only lived a year to be followed by Innocent IX who similarly only lived a brief term dying in 1591. Because popes had a short life expectancy in those days, Simoncelli was a viable candidate in the conclaves in September and October–December 1590, and those in 1591 and 1592. Altogether, he missed out on seven opportunities including the earlier conclaves of April and May 1555, 1559, and 1565–66. Even so, Simoncelli died February 24, 1605 never winning the pontificate. While the trail of the conspiracy seems evident, the coherence of the frustrated papbile‘s ―old city‖ Cardinalate is not the most compelling reason we hold that it was tampered with.
110
To demonstrate why we can confidently discern that at least some of the pre-1590 mottos were written after the fact I will use an analogy from counter-cult apologetics, specifically in regard to Mormonism. Joseph Smith claimed that he miraculously translated the book of Mormon directly from gold plates which were written by a divine hand. Thus, it was a one-generation translation from plates to Smith‘s manuscript. Accordingly, one would then expect the book of Mormon to be sacred scripture of the most direct and pure translation. The insurmountable obstacle for the veracity of the book of Mormon is demonstrated by the fact that when the book of Mormon references passages from the Hebrew Bible, it follows the translated text of the King James Bible a little too perfectly. For instance, where the King James italicized words, the Book of Mormon follows suit. Obviously, this proves that Smith copied his references from a King James Bible and not more ancient source material like the mythological golden plates. We have a similar line of evidence with the prophecy of the popes. Because we are examining the upper level of context from the time of publisher, specifically the interpretations offered prior to 1590, we can discern that they were manipulated in line with what was available at the time. Books were hard to come by. The prophecy follows the descriptions and details found in a work on the history of the popes by Onuphrius Panvinius: Epitome Romanorum Pontijicum usque ad Paulum IV, printed in Venice in 1557. The prophecy transparently follows this reference work. O‘Brien argued, ―Any person who opens this work and compares the account of the popes in it from Celestine II to Paul IV, with the corresponding part of the ‗Prophecy of St. Malachy‘ will come to the conclusion that the writer of the latter, if not Panvinius himself, must have been someone who followed Panvinius‘ account rather too closely.‖[xi] This is more than just an assertion; his evidence is detailed and specific: In Panvinius‘s Epitome, the popes‘ armorial bearings are given, but not in every case. When the arms are given, we usually find that they figure in the prophecy, when not given, the prophecy is a play upon or a description of the pope‘s name, country, family, or title, when cardinal. Moreover, we find in Panvinius the very same antipopes as given in the prophecy. Even when the pope‘s family-name, armorial bearings or cardinalic title is wrongly given by Panvinius, we find the forger of the prophecy to perfectly chime in with him.[xii] In other words, it matches too perfectly because, even in the few places where Panvinius‘ papal history makes mistakes, the interpretations of the prophecy follow those errors. This only makes sense if someone was using Panvinius‘ book or if it were Panvinius himself. If we allow that they were following Rome‘s penchant for altering an authentic ancient document to meet their purposes, then we have two layers of context. The prophecy itself (the lower, an older level of historical context) seems to have been manipulated to match the interpretation (the upper, the late sixteenth-century level). O‘Brien‘s parting shot is a zinger: According to Wion, Malachy‘s prophecy was a mere string of meaningless Latin phrases. How did the supposed interpreter know with what pope to commence? How was he persuaded to take up the antipopes?[xiii] While O‘Brien‘s incredulity is clear, the answer to the first question is trivial. As the legend goes, Malachy was summoned to Rome in 1139 by Pope Innocent II (r. 1130–43). Thus, the prophecy commenced with the Pope following Innocent II who was Celestine II (r. 1143–44). The second quandary concerning antipopes is much more problematic. For instance, in the Malachy prophecy, predictions 6: Octavius (―Victor IV‖) (1159–1164); 7: Pascal III (1165–1168); 8: Callistus III (1168–1177) are antipopes. Antipopes are alternative popes elected in opposition to a standing pope
111
during various schisms and controversies. The problem is that those antipopes listed opposed Alexander III (1159–81) but in reality there was another antipope Innocent III (1178–1180) who is not included in prophecy.[xiv] What makes this revealing is this is exactly the same way Panvinius recorded it. Panvinius neglected antipope Innocent III as well. This state of affairs points to the fact that someone redacted the pre-1590 prophecies to conform to Panvinius‘ book. In light of their goal, it makes perfect sense. Panvinius‘ work was the authoritative source at the time and likely the only one most people had access to. By manipulating all of the pre-1590 mottos to have obvious fulfillments that any semi-studious Cardinal could verify, they launched an ingenious conspiracy to promote papabile Simoncelli as the candidate of divine destiny. Because the lower level of historical context, the original text, was just a series of nebulous Latin phrases, how could someone like the alleged interpreter Ciacconus or the publisher, Wion (who discovered the list over four hundred years after their composition), know to include these and only these specific antipopes? It is just not plausible. If the antipopes are not included, the whole list gets thrown out of sync. Of course, the original text left no such instructions. Even so, it is in sync…but not with actual history; rather, with Panvinius‘ book! In summary, there is ample evidence pointing to a sixteenth-century pseudepigrapher who referenced Panvinius‘ book for all of the prophecies up until Paul IV in 1559 (when Panvinius‘ book ends). The five popes between him and Urban VII (Pius IV, Pius V, Gregory XIII, and Sixtus V) would in recent memory and easy for anyone to describe. It is our belief that whoever perpetrated the ruse for the 1590 conclave used an actual prophetic document and modified all of the entries prior to coincide with the principle text on Pontifical history of that time. He then altered the next prophecy on the list ―of the old city‖ to promote Girolamo Simoncelli who was the Cardinal of Orvieto (Latin urbs vetus = ―old city‖) at the 1590 conclave. While this evidence supports the conspiracy to promote Simoncelli, what it does not explain is what has happened over the last four hundred years since Wion‘s publication.
The Arrival of Petrus Romanus By Tom Horn & Cris Putnam Pope Benedict XVI‘s February 11, 2013 announcement—as forecast in our book Petrus Romanus—was unprecedented because the last pope to resign was Gregory XII in 1415, nearly six hundred years ago. We did not venture this hypothesis uninformed. In his book, Light of the World: The Pope, the Church, and the Signs of the Times,when asked if he thought it appropriate for a pope to retire, Pope Benedict XVI responded, ―If a pope clearly realizes that he is no longer physically, psychologically and spiritually capable of handling the duties of his office, then he has a right and, under some circumstances, also an obligation to resign.‖[i]
112
Thus, based on a conflation of prophecy and current events we went out on a limb, taking a risky position on pages 57–58 of this volume by asserting that Benedict XVI would step down for reasons related to health concerns. Indeed, it came to pass and many former skeptics picked up Petrus Romanus in earnest. As the reader may be aware, we correlated Pope Benedict‘s predisposition to retire with the work of the Jesuit scholar, René Thibaut, who predicted over 60 years ago that the door would be opened for the arrival of the final pope on Malachy‘s list in 2012. Of course, the year 2012 came and went with seemingly no fulfillment. Consequently, we were a little disappointed when it seemed like Thibaut was mistaken. All the same, Thibaut‘s code-breaking work is a relatively small portion of our book‘s content, so we never felt our work was made irrelevant. As it turns out, however, Thiabut was far more correct—astoundingly so—than anyone would ever imagine until February 2013! According to the New York Times: That the resignation [by Benedict XVI] was long in the planning was confirmed by Giovanni Maria Vian, the editor of the Vatican newspaper, L‟Osservatore Romano, who wrote on Monday that the pope‘s decision ―was taken many months ago,‖ after his trip to Mexico and Cuba in March 2012, ―and kept with a reserve that no one could violate.‖[ii] In other words, Pope Benedict officially and secretly resigned right when Thibaut—and we—speculated he would in 2012, and then his February 11, 2013 public affirmation was quickly punctuated by a dramatic lightning bolt striking St. Peter‘s basilica.[iii] Whether one agrees with his theology or not, credit must be given where it is due. Thibaut accurately predicted this changing of the guard over sixty years prior. Pope Benedict‘s South American tour was ongoing as the first edition of our book went to print and it is now evident that he decided to step down simultaneous with its release exactly when the Belgian Jesuit said he would—sixty years prior. This is also evidenced by the fact that renovations to a property hosting Benedict‘s retirement home ensued in 2012 as well.[iv] Thus, with two living Pontificus Maximi, we have entered into terra incognita as far as the modern papacy is concerned. This brings us to the new pope. According to the prophecy of St. Malachy, Peter the Roman has arrived. Pope Francis, formerly known as Jorge Mario Bergoglio the son of Italian immigrants to Argentina, has assumed the 112th position on Malachy‘s famous list. While shallow skeptics were quick to point out that ―his name is not Peter,‖ their complaint betrays ignorance of the way the Malachy prophecy works. We have stated from the beginning that the title ―Peter the Roman‖ was symbolic. All popes claim apostolic succession from
113
Peter and, for this reason, it is called the Petrine office. They claim to sit on the chair of St. Peter and in this way all popes are Peters. For instance, in an interview with World Net Daily prior to the Pope Francis election, Tom Horn was quoted thus: Regardless, Horn said he‘s always maintained that it doesn‘t take someone whose Christian name is Peter to fulfill the prophecy. ―In fact, if any Italian is elected, that would be a fairly transparent fulfillment,‖ he said. Moreover, he argued, ―in a very general sense, every pope could be regarded as ‗Peter the Roman,‘ and in that sense, this could be the last one.‖[v] Real scholars who studied the Malachy prophecy down through time unanimously came to a similar conclusion—that the title Petrus Romanus (―Peter the Roman‖) was symbolic and not indicative of a birth name any more than Gloria Olivae (the 111thline in the prophecy of the popes, the one for Pope Benedict XVI) was Cardinal Ratzinger‘s given name before he became Pope Benedict XVI, naming himself after the founder of the Benedictine Order, of which the Olivetans are one branch in order to fulfill his place in the prophecy. Over sixty years ago, Thibaut similarly rejected the possibility of a pope literally named Peter and wrote that the name symbolized the totality of the papacy: We therefore reject the Roman appointed Peter as the impossible Peter II. There is only one Peter, the first of the Roman pontiffs, and he is seen in his many successors. He still to serve is the final as in the first persecution. We believe Petrus Romanus represents all the Roman Pontiffs from St. Peter to the recipient Gloria Olivae.[vi] In Thibaut‘s reckoning, the meaning of "Petrus" is that all the ambitions and pretensions of the papal dynasty are now encompassed in one man, Pope Francis. This was our position as well, but we were more than a little astounded recently when the Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica, Cardinal Angelo Comastri acknowledged how Petrus Romanus is incarnate in Pope Francis. In discussing details of the new Pope‘s April 1, 2013 visit to St. Peter‘s tomb in the necropolis under the basilica, Comastri said: We then made a second stop before the funerary stele of a man called Istatilio. He was certainly Christian: on his grave is the monogram [chi-rho] of Christ. On the stele is inscribed: ‗He was at peace with everyone and never caused strife.‘ The Pope, after reading the phrase, looked at us and said, ‗That is a beautiful program of life.‘ Climbing back up the stairs and having reached the Clementine Chapel, Pope Francis became absorbed in prayer and repeated with a loud voice the three professions of Peter: ―Lord, You are
114
the Christ, Son of the Living God‖; ―Lord, to whom do we go? You have the words of eternal life‖; ―Lord, You know all things! You know that I love you!‖ At that moment, we had the distinct impression that the life of Peter rose out of centuries past and became present and living in the current Successor of the Apostle Peter.[http://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=17490]
In addition to this incredible fulfillment of the Malachy prophecy, many scholars of various schools of thought see Bible prophecy in general near its climax. In fact, events in Israel also fell in place just as the first edition of the book Petrus Romanusforecast a year prior. In chapter 16, ―The Burdensome Stone,‖ we wrote about an obscure, under-the-table deal concerning the Hall of the Last Supper on Mount Zion, and it seems that deal has been consummated. Reporter Shlomo Cesana broke the story in the Israel Hayom newsletter on January 30, 2013: A historical agreement has been signed between Israel and the Vatican, ending a 20 year dispute. Israel has granted the pope an official seat in the room where the Last Supper is believed to have taken place, on Mount Zion in Jerusalem.[vii] Even though it is being ignored by the mainstream media, this is momentous because end-time prophecy plays out in Jerusalem and now, for the first time since the reformation of Israel in 1948, the Roman Pontiff has an official seat on Mount Zion. Watch for Pope Francis to visit Israel more than once and pay attention to the details. Accordingly, Hal Lindsey agrees with us that exegesis of Revelation 13:11–18 implies the final pope is likely the false prophet: The Apostle John in the Book of the Revelation describes very plainly how the leader of the world religious system (based in Rome) will pave the way for the rise of the man who will be the Antichrist. Unfortunately for that churchman, the Antichrist and
115
the False Prophet will later turn on him and destroy the religious system and the city.[viii] Another interesting and possibly noteworthy aspect of the Final Pope is the timing of his arrival. While we don‘t normally put a lot of stock in numerology, mystics do and the great biblical scholar and Anglican theologian, Ethelbert W. Bullinger, wrote an exhaustive treatise in the nineteenth century which has yielded some interesting connections to the new pontiff. The numbers surrounding Pope Francis‘ election keep coming up thirteen. White smoke at 7:06 p.m.: 7 + 6 = 13; he is 76 years old: 7 + 6 = 13; he was elected on the calendar date 3/13/13, which sports two thirteens of its own; 3/13/2013 also yields 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 3 = 13; he was announced at precisely 8:13 p.m. Vatican time, or, in military and European time 20:13, making for an astounding 3/13/2013 at 20:13. According to Bullinger: As to the significance of thirteen, all are aware that it has come down to us as a number of ill-omen. Many superstitions cluster around it, and various explanations are current concerning them. Unfortunately, those who go backwards to find a reason seldom go back far enough. The popular explanations do not, so far as we are aware, go further back than the Apostles. But we must go back to the first occurrence of the number thirteenin order to discover the key to its significance. It occurs first in Genesis 14:4, where we read ―Twelveyears they served Chedorlaomer, and the thirteenthyear they REBELLED.‖ Hence every occurrence of the numberthirteen, and likewise of every multiple of it, stamps that with which it stands in connection withrebellion, apostasy, defection, corruption,disintegration, revo lution, or some kindred idea.[ix] This ill omen suggests the apostasy prophesied by Paul (2 Thessalonians 2:3) and the many Revelation judgments along with the ―many tribulations‖ and destruction of Rome predicted by the Malachy prophecy. Bullinger goes on to cite these remarkably suggestive numerical concurrences: θηρίον (theerion), beast = 247 (13x19) ―He had two horns‖ = 1521 (132x9) ―And he had two horns like a lamb‖ = 2704 (132x16) Revelation 13:11, The whole verse = 6318 (13x486)[x] ―And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon‖ (Revelation 13:11). Indeed this second beast—the false prophet—is predicted to be viewed ―like a lamb‖ and the accolades afforded the new pontiff on 3/13/2013 at 20:13 support that
116
notion. As Protestants, we feel well within our rights to assert all claimants to Pontifex Maximus Vicar of Christ as false prophets.[xi] Please do not be fooled by the media‘s unwitting accolades concerning Pope Francis‘ feigned humility, this man believes he is literally Christ on Earth, or he would not accept the title of Vicar of Christ. All the same, if the predictions of St. Malachy are truly at their fruition, then the second beast, the one from the Earth called the ―false prophet‖ (Revelation 16:13; 19:20; 20:10) may well be Pope Francis in the role of Petrus Romanus who, unwittingly or not, will lead the world to worship the dragon. Interestingly, his namesake St. Francis of Assisi would agree. The Argentine Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio has chosen Francis as his papal name, a first in tribute to Francis of Assisi. It is noteworthy that St. Francis of Assisi‘s long Italian name is Francesco di Pietro di Bernardone, a title that can accurately be viewed as ―Peter the Roman‖ from the final line in the Prophecy of the Popes. Since the phrase that supplanted the birth name Giovanni is Francesco di Pietro, and that by sainthood, it is safe to say that by choosing Francis of Assisi‘s name, he in effect chose Francesco di Pietro, and he is unlikely to prefer truncation of the Pietro element since Catholicism esteems Peter (Petrus) as the rock of the church and spuriously maintains he was the first pope. Rome was an empire and a city so Bergoglio‘s Italian ancestry arguably meets the Roman aspect in a similar way. Accordingly, many argue that Bergoglio has fulfilled the Peter the Roman title with his choice of papal name. As the 2013 conclave concluded, Bergoglio said he chose the original papal name Francis after St. Francis of Assisi when Cardinal Claudio Hummes exhorted him to ―remember the poor.‖[xii] The reader might recall that our bookPetrus Romanus connected the friar Assisi with Petrus Romanus over a year ago now, quoting an apocalyptic prediction he made soon after St. Malachy‘s prophecy concerning a Final Pope: At the time of this tribulation a man, not canonically elected, will be raised to the Pontificate, who, by his cunning, will endeavor to draw many into error and death… Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it under foot and deny it…for in those days Jesus Christ will send themnot a true Pastor, but a destroyer.[xiii] Was there something non-canonic about the election of Pope Francis? For starters, Pope Benedict XVI‘s retirement makes for an unprecedented situation. When a pope is elected, the Church expects that he will remain in office until his death. Before now, only five popes unambiguously resigned with historical certainty, all between the tenth and fifteenth centuries.
117
Arguably, that makes Bergoglio‘s election suspect but, apparently, not a violation of canon law. In 1294, Celestine V issued a decree declaring it permissible for a pope to resign, and then resigned himself after only five months as pope. He lived a few more years as a hermit and then as a prisoner of his tyrannical successor, Boniface VIII. Because his decree was never repealed, canon law experts allow that a pope can resign, albeit it is discouraged. Others have objected that the fifteen-day rule between the vacancy of the office and the start of the conclave was circumvented in order to speed up the process. This was done by Pope Benedict‘s final decree but the urgency to seat his successor seems suspicious. While Pope Francis represents many firsts, overall, the most interesting aspect is his status as the first ever Jesuit pope. The sitting pontiff‘s background has great prophetic significance as the Jesuit order was formed to specifically combat the Protestant reformation and assert papal supremacy over the entire world. According to a historian, ―The Jesuits were the soldiers of the pope: they knew no law but the will of their general, no mode of worship but the pope‘s dictate no church but themselves.‖[xiv] Because of this, the Jesuit order was suppressed and disbanded for its pernicious skullduggery by Pope Clement XIV in 1773, and by the mid-eighteenth century, the Jesuits had earned a bad reputation in Europe for political maneuvering and economic exploitation bar-none. The order was reinstated in the early nineteenth century with the mission to conquer by scholarship and infiltration of the education system. Interestingly, Pope Benedict XVI addressed the Jesuit order in 2008, encouraging them to reinvigorate the fourth vow. He said, ―For this very reason I have invited you and also invite you today to reflect in order to rediscover the fullest meaning of your characteristic ‗fourth vow‘ of obedience to the Successor of Peter.‖[xv] Church historians record that the fourth vow of obedience is one of ―absolute subservience to the pope; to do whatever he enjoined, and go on any service he wished, and into any quarter of the globe.‖[xvi] A few ex-Jesuit whistle-blowers have called this a blood oath involving pagan rites which were laid bare in the suppressed document, ―Jesuit Extreme Oath of Induction,‖ which was once recorded in records of the US Congress, but was suspiciously expunged. According to this document, they are indoctrinated into the principle of Iustum, Necar, Reges, Impious, meaning, ―It is just to exterminate or annihilate impious or heretical Kings, Governments, or Rulers.‖[xvii] The Jesuit modernists of today prefer more subtle methods like infiltrating the education system and promoting biblical higher criticism that undermines biblical authority. Protestants and Catholics have written about a clandestine war that has been playing out for some time behind the scenes between the papacy and the Jesuit order. For example, the Reverend Ian Paisley has observed, ―Since their restitution in 1814, the Jesuits have sought to control the papacy.‖[1] Yet, it is the insider, Malachi Martin, former Jesuit and advisor to three popes, who wrote a bestselling exposé, The Jesuits: The Society of Jesus and the Betrayal of the Roman Catholic Church,accusing the order of
118
systematically undermining Church teachings and replacing them with new world order doctrines. The first lines of the book state: A state of war exists between the papacy and the Religious Order of the Jesuits—the Society of Jesus, to give the Order its official name. That war signals the most lethal change to take place within the ranks of the professional Roman clergy over the last thousand years. And, as with all important events in the Roman Catholic Church, it involves the interests, the lives, and the destinies of ordinary men and women in their millions.[2] It seems rather obvious that the first Jesuit pope (Pope Francis) indicates the Jesuits won that war and to the victors go the spoils. What might this mean? Most probably a new level of ecumenism that will culminate in the one-world religion, after all, the word ―Catholic‖ means ―universal.‖ This has far-reaching implications, further than one might think—as in astronomical. We address the Jesuits who make up the Vatican Observatory Research Group in some detail in our new book, ExoVaticana: Petrus Romanus, Project L.U.C.I.F.E.R., and the Vatican‟s Astonishing Plan for the Arrival of an Alien Savior, and offer some surprising revelations as to what might entice the entire world to unite under the new pontiff. Our sequel to Petrus Romanus, Exo-Vaticana, was just released and documents the Vatican Observatory Research Group‘s (VORG) endorsement of the astrobiological project and theological revisionsim in expectation of extraterrestrial contact. In light of Exo-Vaticana‘s extraordinary exposé of the Vatican‘s plans for the arrival of an alien savior, the unexpected election of Pope Francis comes into a brilliant new focus. The sequel was already written and sent to the printer when Francis ascended the papacy, but now, astonishing facts connect our two books. Pope Francis is uniquely positioned as an insider to be the extraterrestrial disclosure pontiff. As a young adult, Bergoglio earned a master‘s degree in chemistry from the University of Buenos Aires and had scientific ambitions prior to entering the Jesuit order.[3] When the current leader of the VORG, José Gabriel Funes, S. J. (also from Argentina), entered the Jesuit order, one of the three examiners was Bergoglio. As it turns out, fantastically, even the papal name of Francis connects to Funes and the ET issue! Funes, who astounded the world with his essay, The Extraterrestrial Is My Brother, is infamous for invoking the new pope‘s namesake St. Francis of Assisi as an apologetic for accepting ET: ―To say it with St. Francis, if we can consider some earthly
119
creatures as ‗brothers‘ or ‗sisters‘, why could we not speak of a ‗brother alien‘? He would also belong to the creation.‖[4] In other words, Funes and the VORG are leading the charge to accept extraterrestrials at face value even arguing they could be morally superior to humans. Funes believes the first Jesuit pope will soon turn his attention to issues like astrobiology once his papacy is established: One Jesuit who shares the pope‘s Argentine roots and has known him since his own days as a novice, said the election of the man he first knew as Father Bergoglio is ―a joy for the country.‖ Father Jose Funes, head of the Vatican Observatory, toldCatholic News Service that the election of an Argentine Jesuit with a background in science (he studied chemistry at a trade school before entering the Jesuits) can only be good for all those interests. However, he said, ―I think the pope will be focused on other priorities first.‖[5] Pope Francis‘ intimate and personal association with the VORG leader implies a surprising new relevance to his election in the role of Petrus Romanus. The Pontifical Academy of Science‘s 2009 Astrobiology Conference key note speaker, Dr. Chris Impey, predicted a forthcoming extraterrestrial disclosure, saying, ―The first discovery is only a few years away.‖[6] Impey‘s few years are now upon us and recent exoplanet discoveries seem to offer promise. Thus, it appears that Pope Francis will indeed be the sitting pontiff when that disclosure event occurs. In Exo-Vaticana, we offer evidence and arguments that this entails the strong delusion that leads the world to believe the lie that the Apostle Paul warned us to expect (2 Thessalonians 2: 11). We commend the reader to our follow-up volume, ExoVaticana, which explains this in great detail. Recalling ―horns like a lamb,‖ we expect Pope Francis may first usher in a new liberalized ecumenism rather than hardcore, old-line papal domineering. New details are coming out daily but as of this writing, the media are reporting that Cardinal Bergoglio supported homosexual civil unions in Argentina as a ―lesser of evils‖ compromise, rather than standing firm against the homosexual political lobby.[7] Even more offensive to traditional Catholics, Pope Francis gave communion to infant holocaust perpetrators Joseph Biden and Nancy Pelosi. A priest expressed his disgust: ―At a Mass during which our new Pope emphasized the duty public officials—and all the rest of us—have to protect the weakest among us, Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi have the audacity to receive Communion while publicly renouncing their responsibility to protect the weakest among us.‖[8] Yet, it is not the audacity of the two babymurdering politicians that is in question; it is the utter lack of resolve displayed by Pope Francis. Perhaps, in a supreme irony, Petrus Romanus will mark the dissolution of the papacy into limp wristed liberalism? We suspect a non-linear event will change everything, but to understand what we mean by that, you need to read Exo-Vaticana. In light of
120
that, the Jesuit pope‘s intimate association to Vatican Observatory Research Group‘s leader Jose Funes is the most interesting detail to date. While such seemingly confirming evidence has the tendency to embolden eschatological speculators such as ourselves, we remind the reader of the third caveat in the preface of Petrus Romanus, ―We are not setting dates for the tribulation or return of Christ. Let us phrase it more emphatically lest someone misunderstand: We do not claim to know when the Lord will return.‖ Many miss this important point. We are not claiming certainty! Living in the tension of the ―already/not yet‖ entails a degree of frustration and nearly every generation has expected Jesus to return. Peter wrote, ―Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?‖ (2 Peter 3:12). In obedience to Peter‘s suggestion, we endeavor to hasten the day by leading more folks to Gospel truth.
The Vatican’s Alien Connection Flying saucers over the Vatican? An alien invasion of Jerusalem? Official Disclosure by the White House in 2013? Closely-guarded family secrets of alien abductions? A 40-year old personal account of a mid-air encounter with a gigantic silver craft by someone you know very well? Astronaut encounters, the face on Mars and the mysteries of Roswell? Hybrid breeding programs and alien architecture on other planets? Government cover-ups? One-on- one interviews with a ―Who‘s Who‖ of UFO insiders? Need I say more? Just reading the Table of Contents was a thrilling adventure! It‘s no surprise that Tom Horn and Cris Putnam have another best-selling book on their hands. This one seems to have really touched a nerve, even more so than their 2012 blockbuster, Petrus Romanus: The Final Pope is Here—the book that predicted the sudden resignation of Pope Benedict. Then, just when you thought it was safe to go back to your local bookstore . . . Exo-Vaticana hit the shelves. I can tell you that someone doesn‘t want you to read this book. Some have even resorted to phony, Amazon reviews, trashing the book with one-star ratings and nonsensical criticism! What‘s next? A book burning? One look at this provocative book cover gives you a pretty good idea where they‘re going with Exo-Vaticana. 1978 could be called ―The Year of the Three Popes.‖ Pope Paul VI died on August 6, 1978, He was replaced by the short- lived, two-week reign of Pope John Paul I, who was followed by Pope John Paul II, the Pope who disclosed the mysterious 3rd mystery of the Fatima vision (covered in a separate chapter), revealing his assassination encounter. 1978 brought a wave of UFOs that accompanied these appointments. They came in all shapes and sizes—cigars, doughnuts, luminous triangles, hovering discs, and one
121
craft that cast a beam of green, laser-like light down on Rome! Sightings were reported all over Italy by residents, police, airlines, and Vatican guards—all shook up by the appearance of these flying craft. Even the NY Times reported these sightings, as panic gripped the city. Stranger still, in 2005 when Pope John Paul II died, these craft returned with a vengeance! At his funeral no less! Someone is sure interested in what goes on in Vatican City. Horn and Putnam sure are. Their research has led them to some conclusions that most of the world would find quite strange. Chapter after chapter, they lure you deeper and deeper into the end-times puzzle. Are we being set up for a great deception from outer space? Do the soon- coming ―lying signs and wonders‖ represent a spectacular UFO appearance explaining away the rapture? Does the Vatican know something about the future they‘re not sharing? Could 2013 be the year of the great disclosure? Actually, it‘s not far-fetched. The authors share an interesting story about a scroll that surfaced in the 1990s, rumored to be one of the ancient scrolls found near the Dead Sea and spirited away to a monastery on the Austrian border by Benedictine monks. This ―Angel Scroll‖ tells the story of a UFO encounter that features a fleet of flying saucers hovering and then attacking Jerusalem! Then there‘s the now legendary story of Project L.U.C.I.F.E.R. (seriously), the strange name given to part of the Vatican‘s massive astronomical complex atop Mt. Graham in Arizona. Somehow, Horn and Putnam managed to gain access to this little jewel and got a guided tour that included private talks with the Vatican‘s astronomers on the subject of UFOs! From what they indicated in Exo-Vaticana, these high-wire acts are spotted quite regularly in outer space! What exactly is the Vatican looking for? According to astronaut Gordon Cooper, it‘s UFOs and little green men and they just can‘t wait to roll out the red carpet for them! Greetings earthlings! In 2005 a Jesuit priest, Guy Consolmagno, a leading astronomer and spokesman for the Vatican, authored a pamphlet entitled. Intelligent Life in the Universe: Catholic Belief and the Search For Extraterrestrial Intelligent Life. Shortly after its release, the Vatican yanked the publication permanently. But leave it to these two relentless researchers to get their hands on a copy. In this controversial document, Consolmagno admits that he expects contemporary societies to ―look to the aliens to be the Saviors of humankind!‖ Denying the existence of UFOs is difficult. Just ask the residents of Phoenix who experienced the ―Phoenix Lights‖ in 1997. As dusk arrived one evening, a massive craft made it‘s way across the Arizona skies, shocking thousands of people by its sheer size. That‘s right out of the movie Independence Day! Press coverage of course was very limited, but should we be surprised they are complicit in the cover up? Horn and Putnam were led to ask the question—why Arizona? They hint that perhaps it houses some special type of space portal conducive to extraterrestrial travel—right out of Horn‘s book, Nephilim Stargates! Is this why the Vatican chose Mt. Graham to house their powerful telescopes? Remember what happened on Mt. Hermon? According to the ancient Book of Enoch, this is where 200 fallen angels descended to Earth. The authors relay the details, culminating in the activities of the Nephilim, the hybridization of the human race and
122
ultimately the genetic manipulation that was commonplace in the Days of Noah. These are not unrelated events. This is all connected.
Mount Graham and the L.U.C.I.F.E.R. Project By Tom Horn & Cris Putnam "L.U.C.I.F.E.R., which stands for “Large Binocular Telescope Near-infrared Utility with Camera and Integral Field Unit for Extragalactic Research,” is a chilled instrument attached to a telescope in Arizona. And yes, it‟s named for the Devil, whose name itself means “morning star” [and which] happens to be right next to the Vatican Observatory on Mt. Graham in Tucson."— Rebecca Boyle, Popular Science Magazine. Following the release of our 2012 best-seller Petrus Romanus: The Final Pope Is Here, we were inundated with invitations from around the world to be interviewed on radio, television, and in print media. These included segments in The History Channel‘s ―Countdown to Apocalypse,‖ which premiered November 9, 2012; a special feature on Canada‘s largest Christian channel VisionTV titled ―I Prophesy: The Apocalypse Series‖ (complete with re-enactments) that aired nationwide on Tuesday, November 20, 2012; invitations to Rome to discuss with Italian media our findings on René Thibaut, a Belgian Jesuit whose meticulous analysis of the Prophecy of the Popes predicted the arrival of Petrus Romanus in this era; a ―best of‖ interview with George Noory on Coast to Coast AM, and dozens more. But it was two shows in particular, which we did on The Omega Man Radio Program with popular author and radio man Steve Quayle that prompted our visit to Mt. Graham in southeastern Arizona to start our investigation. The first show with Steve rocketed Omega Man to the #1 Blog Talk Radio Show in the world for over a week. It focused on the ancient Prophecy of the Popes and the fact that the pontiff following Benedict XVI will be the final one on this mysterious list of popes, a prophecy that was concealed inside the secret vaults of the Vatican for hundreds of years and which many believe points to the arrival of the False Prophet of end-times infamy. (Note that at the start of this investigation, Benedict XVI remains pope and whoever is scheduled to follow him in the role of Petrus Romanus is still an open question, but whoever it turns out to be, they are the final pope according to the medieval catholic prophecy). In the second Omega Man show, which aired Wednesday, April 4, 2012, we broached the subject of a ―Vatican ET‖ connection. That program sent Omega Man into the stratosphere for an unprecedented one-month position as the top BT radio show on the planet, illustrating to these authors that the world is more than casually interested not only in the final pope, but in the connection between Rome and their work on extraterrestrial intelligence, astrobiology, and the intriguing connection between those issues and Petrus Romanus. Thus on a mild morning in September, 2012, we together with our cameraman—Joe Ardis, a.k.a. the Wild Man of the Ozarks—departed the small desert town of Safford, Arizona (which normally has a warm high desert climate, much hotter than most places in eastern Arizona due to its relatively low elevation of 2,953 feet) [i] en route
123
to the Mt. Graham Observatory Base Camp, 80 miles from Tucson and a few miles south of Safford on State Route 366. Located near the northern limit of the Chiricahua Apache and Western Apache territories, Dził Nchaa Si An, as it is known in the Western Apache language, is one of the four holiest mountains in America for the Apache, and considered sacred to the all of the region‘s Native peoples. (The San Carlos Apache Tribe had originally joined environmentalists who sought, among other things, to protect the Sacred Grounds and American Red Squirrel, in filing dozens of lawsuits before a federal appeals court to stop the construction of the observatories on Mt Graham, but the project ultimately prevailed after an act by the United States Congress allowed it). We had been warned by our guide that the trek up the steep mountainside from 2,953 feet to over 10,700 was precarious, coupled with more hairpin turns, switchbacks and narrow segments of roadway overlooking deep canyon walls than we might have imagined, and, to top it off, there would be no guardrails along the harrowing winding path. We were scheduled to arrive at the Mount Graham International Observatory a couple hours after departure.
We would meet with astronomers and engineers at the Large Binocular Telescope—currently one of the world‘s most advanced optical telescopes—where, among other things, the new LUCIFER device is attached between its gigantic twin mirrors (either of which would be the largest optical telescope in continental North America). We were later told by the LBT systems engineer who spent significant time with us that day that another instrument—LUCIFER-II—is scheduled to arrive at the observatory anytime now and will complete the two multi-object and longslit infrared spectrograph imagers they need for studying the heavens in search of, among other things, exo-planets that may host intelligent life. We would also visit the Heinrich Hertz Submillimeter Telescope that day, which sets between the LBT and the real target of our quest—the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope and the Jesuits who work there. Before leaving base camp, Dramamine for motion sickness was suggested ahead of departure, and the two men in our team that declined that offer would soon wished they hadn‘t, as once we were underway, it was non-stop reeling back and forth, bouncing up and down as the driver—who seemed a little too much to enjoy being in one gear faster than he should have been given the circumstances—occasionally looked at us in the rearview mirror and smiled. As we went from Sonoran Desert scrub at the mountain‘s floor to alpine spruce-fir forest closer to the summit, our guide who set in the opposite front seat from the driver occasionally pointed to something off to one side, describing how more life zones and vegetative varieties existed here than on any other North American mountain, including almost two dozen plants, animals and insects that are not found anywhere else. Of course this included the celebrity of Mount Graham—the endangered Red Squirrel—which Arizona has already spent at least 1.25 million dollars protecting. But it was hard to appreciate these facts while growing queasy and wondering how far down the canyon wall we would roll if at any moment the driver lost control and barreled off the side.
124
Thankfully, just when we were starting to think this had been a bad idea, we stopped approximately two-thirds way up the mountain at the Columbine Ranger Station, a USDA Forest Service Administrative Complex that had been built Circa 1935 by the Civilian Conservation Corps, a public work relief program that was part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt‘s ―New Deal‖ and that had provided unskilled manual labor jobs for people to relieve unemployment during the Great Depression. We had packed a sack lunch and used the Ranger Station as a place to rest a while, eat, and let our bellies recover a bit from the roller-coaster ride. While munching on a sandwich and looking at the aging black and white pictures that hung on the walls here and there of the Depression-Era men who had built the modest encampment, we met a volunteer, an interesting old chap who told us how he had been coming there for many years to keep a fire in the fireplace and to greet hikers that wandered into the park. When we told him where we were going, he got quiet. When we added that our plan was to speak with the Jesuits at VATT in the restricted area further up the mountain, he lost interest in the conversation and started stirring his fire again. Minutes later, lunch consumed and stomachs still uneasy, we were back in our vehicle. From this point forward, the road, if we can call it that, became little more than a glorified goat trail until finally, about a mile from our destination, we arrived at a security gate with warnings of ―No Trespassing‖ in several languages. The guide had a key to the gate. She unlocked then relocked it behind us after we drove through the opening. At that point, the driver pulled a radio out, which we had not noticed before, and radioed somebody that we were heading up the incline. Evidently this was necessary because from this point forward the steep gravel lane was barely wide enough for one vehicle at a time, and you didn‘t want to risk running up against another vehicle that might be coming down from the Observatories. No one answered the call, so he radioed again, then a third time, with still no response. The silence must have meant the road was clear, as just like that he slipped the vehicle into low gear and we began our final 30-minute crawl up the mountainside. "And one more thing,‖ the guide warned as we jerked over the rocky track, tires spinning against the loose gravel and dirt. ―When we get to the restricted area you‘ll see brightly colored cables roping off most of the land around the buildings. Do not… I repeat, do not step over those lines or you will be arrested immediately and hauled off to jail." She wasn‘t smiling, and when we got to the observatories, we saw the security lines and enforcement vehicles, just as she had described them. SEARCHING FOR LUCIFER FROM ATOP THE HOLY MOUNTAIN It was approximately 11: AM (PST) as we rounded the final bend and saw just ahead the towering edifices housing the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), an optical telescope for astronomy and currently one of the world‘s most advanced systems. Near it was the Submillimeter Telescope (SMT) or as it is also known, the Heinrich Hertz Submillimeter Telescope building, a ―state-of-the-art singledish radio telescope for observations in the sub-millimeter wavelength range… the most accurate radio telescope ever built.‖ [ii] And last but not least about a block away from
125
them we observed our primary reason for trudging to the top of this peak—the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope or VATT. Of course we had read the official story from the Vatican Observatory Website before making the trip, how VATT truly lives up to its name: "Its heart is a 1.8-m f/1.0 honeycombed construction, borosilicate primary mirror. This was manufactured at the University of Arizona Mirror Laboratory, and it pioneered both the spin-casting techniques and the stressed-lap polishing techniques of that Laboratory which are being used for telescope mirrors up to 8.4-m in diameter. The primary mirror is so deeply-dished that the focus of the telescope is only as far above the mirror as the mirror is wide, thus allowing a structure that is about three times as compact as the previous generation of telescope designs." [iii] Such technical language aside, the ―Observers‖ who are approved to operate VATT and what they are using it for these days is what would take us through the looking glass. This was confirmed minutes later by the Jesuit Father on duty that day (whom we got on film) who told us that among the most important research occurring with the site‘s Vatican astronomers is the quest to pinpoint certain extrasolar planets and advanced alien intelligence. He then proceeded (as did our guide) to show us all around the observatory— from the personal quarters of the Church‘s astronomers—where they ate, slept, relaxed, studied—to the control rooms, computer screens and systems, and even the telescope itself. While we were given complete and unrestricted opportunity to question how the devices are used and what distinctives set each of the telescopes on Mt. Graham apart, we had not expected the ease with which the astronomers and technicians would also speak of UFOs! This was especially true when we walked up the gravel road from VATT to the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), where we spent most of the day with a systems engineer who not only took us to all seven levels of that mighty machine—pointing out the LUCIFER device and what it is used for (which he lovingly referred to as "Lucy‖ several times and elsewhere as ―Lucifer‖) as well as every other aspect of the telescope we tried to wrap our minds around—but who also stunned us as we sat in the control room, listening to him and the astronomers speak so casually of the redundancy with which UFOs are captured on screens darting through the heavens. Our friendly engineer didn‘t blink an eye, nor did any of the other scientists in the room, and we were shocked at this, how ordinary it seemed to be. But as much as the commonality of UFO sightings on Mt. Graham‘s telescopes intrigued, this was not the primary reason for our being there. We had come with deeper questions concerning high-level Vatican astronomers and what they had been leaking to, and discussing with, media in recent years. Captivating comments from Jesuit priests like Guy Consolmagno—a leading astronomer who often turns up
126
in media as a spokesman for the Vatican who has worked at NASA and taught at Harvard and MIT and who currently splits his time between the Vatican Observatory and laboratory (Specola Vaticana) headquartered at the summer residence of the Pope in Castel Gandolfo, Italy, and Mt. Graham in Arizona. Over the last few years, he has focused so much of his time and effort in an attempt to reconcile science and religion in public forums specifically as it relates to the subject of extraterrestrial life and its potential impact on the future of faith that we decided to contact him. The senior Vatican scientist, Brother Guy Consolmagno, said that he would be delighted if we encountered intelligent aliens and would be happy to baptise them.
He agreed to be interviewed from Rome, and over the numerous exchanges that followed he told us some things that seemed beyond the scope. He even sent us a copy of a private pdf, a literal goldmine of what he and the Vatican are considering regarding the ramifications of astrobiology and specifically the discovery of advanced extraterrestrials... in which he admits how contemporary societies will soon “look to The Aliens to be the Saviours of humankind.”

13. Rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem Psa 102:16 When YHVH shall build up Zion, He shall appear in His glory. What is so significant of the Temple being rebuild? It is the fulfilment of prophecy as stated in Matthew 24 as well as in Daniel 12 for the Messiah to return. Mat 24:15-22 Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand). (16) Then let those in Judea flee into the mountains. (17) Let him on the housetop not come down to take anything out of his house; (18) nor let him in the field turn back to take his clothes. (19) And woe to those who are with child, and to those who give suck in those days! (20) But pray that your flight is not in the winter, nor on the sabbath day; (21) for then shall be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world to this time; no, nor ever shall be. (22) And unless those days should be shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the elect's sake, those days shall be shortened. Dan 12:10-13 10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried. But the wicked shall do wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand. 11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the DESOLATING ABOMINATION set up, a thousand two hundred and ninety days ( 3,5 years) shall occur. 12 Blessed is he who waits and comes to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days (the end of days). 13 But you go on to the end, for you shall rest and stand in your lot at the end of the days. If the Temple is rebuild and the daily sacrifice started, the Antichrist (Abomination of Desolation) will come and stop the daily sacrifices and stand in the Holy Place, declaring himself as god. This will signal the beginning of the last 3,5 years of the Great Tribulation that will be followed by the Second Coming of Messiah and the destruction of the earth and Satan‘s System called Babylon (New World Order) and the Judgment of man. When we see the plans for the Temple to be rebuild, we can be sure of these things that will happen in our lifetimes. You have to take these things serious because the Word of YHVH (God) will come to pass and time is about to end. Looking at our timeline of 2008/09 – 2012 – 2014/15 (if this is true), then the Temple must be build by 2012 to start the last 3,5 years form 2012 up to 2014/15, fulfilling the seven years of Tribulation. What makes it scary is that Netanyahu plan to rebuild the Temple as found in a news article that was published 26 June 09: Netanyahu will try to rebuild the Temple A Peaceful Solution To Building The Next Temple In Jerusalem Following is the architectural design of Ezekiel's Temple, as it would look sitting NORTH of the Dome of the Rock Mosque ON the Temple Mount in these Last Days.

The House of YHVH (God), Abilene, Texas holds the following Design Patents for the measurements of the Third Temple Prophesied by Ezekiel: United States Design Patent #360951; Israeli Design Registration #23078
In my many years of study, of which you will only see a part in this article, I have discovered that the Prophet Ezekiel wrote about a Temple and a time period for the day in which we now live. Ezekiel was inspired to write this prophecy over 600 years before the Temple was destroyed in 70 c.e. He was inspired to write for us who live in these days—these troublous days, these same troublous times that the other inspired prophets proclaimed. In these same prophecies, we are also shown a peaceful solution for building the Temple of YHVH! What is even more important is the fact that these same prophecies show us how we, in this generation, can bring peace to Jerusalem and to the world. In Ezekiel's prophecies are the complete measurements of a Temple unlike any other that was ever built before. Many of these measurements have never made sense to any other scholars, but with YHVH's inspiration we have come to see exactly what the Prophet Ezekiel saw: The pattern for building the Temple in these Last Days. This pattern, with all its measurements, exactly fits the area of land sitting north of the Dome of the Rock Mosque. Ezekiel confirmed that is where the Temple will set. Yes, this pattern offers us, this last generation, a peaceful solution to building the Temple, and an end to the troublous times which Jerusalem now faces. All we now ask is that you study this information carefully. Then, contact The House of YHVH if you have any questions. To many people today, and especially to our government leaders, speaking about or quoting from the Holy Scriptures is not the so-called "in thing'' to do. In fact, I have found as I have attempted to set an appointment to speak to a leader of a nation, that when the Bible is mentioned, the door is shut or the phone is hung up, almost instantly. Nevertheless, the Holy Scriptures have very real and viable solutions to today's world problems. Our world leaders would be well advised to study these solutions and then apply them in solving today's problems, rather than relying upon their own understanding. Many of the prophets of old actually spoke of our day, describing existing problems facing all the nations on this planet. Whether we want to believe it or not: the prophets of old were inspired by the Creator, YHVH (God).
129
An Amazing Prophecy! There is an absolutely amazing prophecy; a prophecy which Ezekiel was inspired by YHVH to write. In it, he gives the measurements of the third Temple. These measurements have never been used before, in the manner in which Ezekiel gave them. The first Temple was built under Solomon; the second Temple was rebuilt under Zerubbabel; which was later refurbished by Herod. What makes this prophecy amazing is the fact that this prophecy reveals that Ezekiel saw the Temple Mount in our day, with a building which sits upon it at the present time. Not only this, Ezekiel's prophecies show us a definite way to peace, with a peaceful solution to the problems now existing between the Jews and the Arabs. Please notice carefully as this great prophecy unfolds in the following pages. As you read, please keep in mind that Ezekiel's prophecies were inspired by YHVH. Therefore, Ezekiel's prophecies, written on the following pages, will be just as sure to come to pass as the prophecy that Ezekiel wrote about the city of Tyre. When studying Ezekiel's prophecies, it becomes very clear that they were inspired by a Superior Being. No human being could make prophecies such as those in Ezekiel 26, concerning a powerful city to be doomed to destruction, and then bring it to pass in detail over 250 years later. We should be able to see that Ezekiel was inspired by YHVH to write these prophecies and that he was given the measurements of the Temple by YHVH. Through the Scriptures, we know: o o o o
These Temple measurements were inspired by YHVH; These measurements were not used by Ezrayah (Ezra), Nehemyah (Nehemiah), or Zerubbabel when they returned to rebuild the Temple after the Babylonian Captivity; These measurements were not used by Herod when he refurbished the Temple; These measurements were given to us, to be used to build the Temple now.
In the 1980s and 1990s, I traveled to Israyl, along with three other engineers, to study the design of the Temple mount along with the design that Ezekiel gave in his magnificent prophecy. Many scholars have thought that Ezekiel made a mistake as he wrote down some of the measurements; that he was just going by memory, or trying to remember the measurements of Solomon's Temple. They claim his memory failed him, and he wrote the measurements wrong. That is not the case at all! First, we can see from the magnificent prophecy that Ezekiel wrote, that it was a prophecy to take place at a later date. More than that, those prophecies are for our day! Ezekiel shows us the Temple Mount as it appears in this day, not in his day or when he was alive. Ezekiel 40:1-5 shows that he was brought to the Temple Mount in our day, in our generation. The measurements that Ezekiel wrote have never been used before, but are to be used now, by this generation! Ezekiel 40:1-5— 1 In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the moon, in the fourteenth year after the city had fallen; in the selfsame day the hand of YHVH was upon me, and He took me there. 2 In the visions of YHVH, He brought me into the land of Israyl, and set me upon the greatly exalted mountain; and on it, like a building of a city on the south. 3 When he took me there, then behold, a being; man-like, whose appearance resembled bronze. With a line of flax and a measuring reed in his hand, he stood in the clearing, or opening.
130
4 Then the being said to me: Son of man, look with your eyes and hear with your ears, and fix your mind upon everything that I show you; for the purpose that I show this to you, were you brought here. Declare all that you see to the house of Israyl. 5 And behold, there was an adjoining separation; dividing structure, around a Temple. In the being's hand was a measuring reed six long cubits; about 10 1/2 feet—each cubit; about 1 1/2 feet, with a handbreadth; about 3 inches. So he measured the separation's width to the structure, one reed; about 10 1/2 feet, and the height; rise, one reed. It is possible for this generation to actually bring in the Kingdom of YHVH, and stop the senseless bloodshed, oppression, and starvation which are rampant in this world. Even sickness and disease can be wiped off the face of the earth by this generation, as the prophets of old clearly showed. The prophets of old show that this generation has the greatest opportunity ever offered to mankind. The job we are to do in this generation will be so great, it will be spoken of above the Exodus led by Mosheh. Jeremiah 23:6-11— 6 In His days Yahdah will be saved, and Israyl will dwell safely; and this is the Name that He will proclaim to them—YHVH Tsidqenu: YHVH our righteousness. 7 Therefore behold, the days come, says YHVH, that they will no longer say; as surely as YHVH lives who brought up the children of Israyl out of the land of Egypt; 8 But they will say; As surely as YHVH lives who brought up and led the seed of the house of Israyl out of the protected place, and from all countries where I had driven them; and they will dwell in their own land. 9 My heart is broken within me because of the prophets; all my bones shake. I am like a drunken man; like a man whom wine has overcome, because of YHVH, and because of His holy words; the Law and the Prophets. 10 For the land is full of adulterers; those who turn from following YHVH to follow the gods (elohim). Because of this curse the land mourns; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up. Their conduct is evil, whose might is not right— 11 For both prophet and priest are profane! Yes, even in My own House I have found their wickedness! says YHVH. The great Prophet Jeremiah was speaking to us, in this generation. He was speaking of the things which YHVH is making possible for us to do. This prophecy is for our generation, and our generation can fulfill these prophecies for our days. Ezekiel was among the captives being physically held in Babylon, just as Ezekiel 1:1 says. In the visions of YHVH, he was brought to Israyl and set on the Temple Mount, as it is seen today. There is no evidence that Ezekiel ever physically returned to Israyl during the remainder of his life, but in the visions from YHVH, he returned to the Temple Mount in our day, when another building was sitting on the Mount, south of where the Temple of YHVH once stood. We see that a city building or a public building is standing there. Ezekiel 40:2— In the visions of YHVH, He brought me into the land of Israyl, and set me upon the greatly exalted mountain; and on it, like a building of a city on the south. This was not a city that Ezekiel saw, this was one single building—a city building: a public building! Ezekiel was set on the Temple Mount, and sitting on the Temple Mount was the Moslem Mosque at the south of the Temple. This was all Ezekiel could see, and that was exactly what he did see.
131
Ezekiel was not speaking about the city of Jerusalem; there would be no need to tell them about seeing part of the city to the south. This was one single building, which was, in fact, strange to Ezekiel, because he had not seen this building before. No public building had ever stood there before, but in Ezekiel's vision, a public building was sitting south of the Temple! The building that Ezekiel saw was none other than the Dome of the Rock Mosque, which is sitting on the Temple Mount at this time. This Mosque is to remain in its same location, with a dividing wall separating it from the rebuilt Temple. This is a peaceful solution to building the Temple in this generation. There is a viable plan whereby both faiths, Moslem and Jewish, can worship side by side in privacy. Notice, there is a wall to separate the Temple from the Mosque, written in prophecy. Ezekiel 40:5— And behold, there was an adjoining separation; dividing structure, around a Temple... In Ezekiel's prophecy, the outer court was not rebuilt when the Temple was rebuilt. Yes, the rebuilt Temple sits right beside the Dome of the Rock Mosque, with only a dividing wall separating the Dome of the Rock Mosque from the inner court of the Temple. These measurements, given by Ezekiel, show that this dividing wall separating the Mosque from the inner court serves no military purpose, it only serves as a privacy fence. Never before in the history of the Temple has the Temple been built without its outer court, but never before has there been a Mosque sitting on the Temple Mount. YHVH shows us that neither the Arabs or the Jews need to be harmed and we do not need to fight over the Temple Mount. YHVH is showing us that we can and should build the Temple on the vacant land where the Temple stood before, and that we should build a dividing wall to separate the Arab worshipers from the Jewish worshipers. The troubles which are centered around the Middle East currently involve all nations. Any day now, these troubles could flare up beyond containment, risking national security everywhere. We are not merely facing the possibility of war from the nations which surround us, but are facing the reality that all the world's major powers will be involved as well. Every living being on the earth is facing the results of the mighty nuclear arsenals that have been stockpiled by nearly every nation on this planet. National leaders are fools to rely upon the "strength'' of their armies any longer. Every day brings destruction one step closer. We need YHVH on our side now, and the way to have YHVH on our side is to turn to the great Laws of YHVH; then we will have peace. Proverbs 16:6-7— 6 By mercy and truth iniquity is purged; by reverence for YHVH, men depart from evil. 7 When a man's ways please YHVH, He makes even his enemies be at peace with him. We then read in: Nachumyah 1:15— Behold, upon the mountains the feet of him who brings glad tidings, who publishes peace! O Yahdah, keep your appointed Feasts; perform your vows. Then the wicked will no longer invade you; he will be utterly cut off. If we fail to do this simple task now, we can only expect Zecharyah's prophecy to be fulfilled in us, which says:
132
Zecharyah 7:12-13— 12 Yes, they made their hearts like a hard adamant stone, in order not to hear the Law and the words, which YHVH of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets. 13 Just as I called, and they would not hear, so they called, and I would not hear, says YHVH of hosts! I said earlier that the measurements given by Ezekiel have never been used in any Temple previously. I do not believe we should insult an inspired prophet of YHVH by saying that Ezekiel made a mistake. Many of Ezekiel's prophecies have been fulfilled in detail. We should realize these measurements were not used before, because they were written for our generation. I visited Israyl several times to work on these measurements. Working with me on this project are experts in the fields of engineering and construction, who also visited Israyl for this same purpose. We spent hundreds of hours working to lay out the exact pattern of the next Temple according to the exact measurements of the Temple prophesied by Ezekiel. YHVH Himself gave us these measurements. Yes, YHVH inspired these men to see what He had inspired to be written for all the world to see. I want you to see that these measurements exactly fit the area of vacant ground lying north of the Dome of the Rock, on the Temple Mount. Ezekiel's Prophetic Proof In the March/April 1983 issue of the Biblical Archeology Review, Dr. Asher S. Kaufman, in his article on pages 40-58: Where the Ancient Temple of Jerusalem Stood; Extant 'Foundation Stone' for the Ark of the Covenant Is Identified, has proven that the first and second Temples sat exactly in line with the Golden Gate: the east gate. Following is a diagram of the "First and Second Temples superimposed on the Temple Mount Platform,'' found on page 57 of Kaufman's article, showing a straight line running from the Golden Gate on the east, directly to the "Dome of the Tablets,'' which now sits northwest of the Dome of the Rock. The Dome of the Tablets, as Dr. Kaufman has also proven, is the foundation stone upon which the Ark of the Covenant rested inside the Holy of Holies!
133
Yes, as Dr. Kaufman has proven in this article, the original Temple site is approximately 330 Feet (100 Meters) northwest of the Dome of the Rock. The Dome of the Rock was not built on the site of the Temple. The Dome of the Rock was built south of it. The next thing one must understand is the fact that YHVH has established a pattern of how to build the Temple. The same pattern has always been followed, whether the Tent of Meeting set up by Mosheh; the first Temple built under Solomon; the second Temple built by Zerubbabel; or Herod's refurbishing of the second Temple. The Scriptural dimensions have been given to us in these Last Days, through the Prophet Ezekiel, for the rebuilding of YHVH's Temple according to this same pattern. When Ezekiel was given this vision of YHVH for the Temple of these Last Days, Ezekiel saw this Temple just as it would be set up in our day. One of the first things which was confirmed to him was the measure which would be used for this Temple: the long cubit—a cubit plus a handbreadth. Ezekiel 40:3,5— 3 When he took me there, then behold, a being; man-like, whose appearance resembled bronze. With a line of flax and a measuring reed in his hand, he stood in the clearing, or opening. 5 And behold, there was an adjoining separation; dividing structure, around a Temple. In the being's hand was a measuring reed six long cubits; about 10 1/2 feet each cubit; about 1 1/2 feet, with a handbreadth; about 3 inches. So he measured the separation's width to the structure, one reed; about 10 1/2 feet, and the height; rise, one reed.
134
Ezekiel 43:13— And these are the measurements of the altar in the long cubits; about 1 3/4 feet __the long cubit being a cubit; about 1 1/2 feet, with a handbreadth; about 3 inches. And the gutter was one cubit deep, and one cubit wide, with a border of one span; a rim about 9 inches wide next to the edge of it all around; and this was the top of the altar.
In Dr. Kaufman's article, he established the length of the cubit used in the construction of the second Temple as that of the median cubit; which was divided into six hand-breadths, a measure totaling 43.7 centimeters, a length of approximately 17.480 inches. However, The Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible, Volume 4, page 837, under Weights and Measures, gives us this information about Ezekiel's cubit: The measuring reed of Ezekiel's escort in his visions extended in length "six in length" (Ezek. 40:5). The word "long" (RSV) is not in the Hebrew, but clearly the text implies that there was a short cubit, the more common one, and that Ezekiel's cubit was this short one plus a handbreadth. The length of this cubit again is specified in Ezek. 43:13. If we take the common cubit, like the short Egyptian cubit, to consist of six palms, Ezekiel's cubit would be, like the long Egyptian cubit, seven palms, so that the six-cubit measuring reed would be seven ordinary cubits long. This would be, according to the foregoing calculation, 51.829 centimeters or 20.405 inches. Therefore, the pattern used in building Ezekiel's Temple would be the same pattern which was established in the beginning by YHVH for His House. The length of each cubit would be extended by one handbreadth, thereby making this Temple a larger structure. The foundation of this Temple has already been laid; it is still intact! Zecharyah 4:9— The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this House; his hands will also finish it. And you will know that YHVH of hosts has sent me to you.
Yes, the elevations and the land contouring have already been prepared by YHVH. All that remains is minimal excavation of the existing courts to reach the foundation, which has already been laid. The foundation is under the existing platform of the Temple Mount, waiting for the construction to begin. The Vestibule, Holy Place, and Most Holy Place are recorded. The altar is measured, the building on the west is measured, with the Priests' kitchens established, the Priests' rooms and singers' chambers are designated, etc. The entrances and exits of the people are written. All that remains is to begin!
What has been done to date to rebuild the Temple? The TEMPLE INSTITUTE in Jerusalem, Israel. The Temple Institute is dedicated to every aspect of the Holy Temple of Jerusalem, and the central role it fulfilled, and will once again fulfill, in the spiritual wellbeing of both Israel and all the nations of the world. The actual sacred Temple vessels have been produced by the Temple Institute. Each vessel has been created by accomplished craftsmen. These vessels and priestly garments are being fashioned today according to the exact Biblical requirements, specifically for use in the future Holy Temple. They await the day when they will be called into the Divine service of the Holy Temple.
135
The Menorah The menorah, made from a single piece of solid gold, stands in the southern side of the Sanctuary. Each morning a priest prepares and rekindles the wicks. The central wick, known as "the western candle" is required to burn perpetually. The oil and wicks of this candle are changed in such a fashion as to insure that it will never be extinguished.
The Copper Laver The copper laver and stand, which stands in the Temple courtyard between the sanctuary and the outer altar, is the first of the Temple vessels to greet the priests each morning. There the priests wash their hands and feet before proceeding to attend to the daily tamid offering. The Table of Showbread In the northern side of the Sanctuary stands the table of the showbread. The table is made of wood, overlaid with gold. Upon it are placed the twelve loaves of showbread. Each Sabbath, the loaves are simultaneously removed and replaced by fresh loaves, so as to insure that these loaves remain "perpetually" on the table. Miraculously, the week old loaves being replaced also retain their heat and freshness. These loaves are distributed among the priests.
136
The Golden Incense Altar Centrally located in the Sanctuary, between the menorah to the south, and the table of the showbread to the north, stands the incense altar, directly in front of the Holy of Holies, to the west. The incense altar, made of wood covered with gold, is employed in what is considered to be the most beloved aspect of the Temple service in G-d's eye: the incense offering. In order to allow for every priest to perform this most prized of offerings, a daily lot is drawn. Only those priests who have never offered incense upon the altar are allowed to participate. The Mizrak The priest collects the blood from the sacrifice into the Mizrak, and then spills the blood onto the corner of the altar. The large mizrak, as the smaller mizrak, is used to gather the blood of the sacrifice, and to spill it onto the corner of the altar. The large mizrak is used when sacrificing larger animals, (cows and bullocks).
The Three Pronged Fork The three-pronged fork is mentioned in 1 Samuel 2:12. According to Rashi and Maimonides, the fork is used to turn over the offerings on the altar fire, or to lift up unconsumed portions of the offering so that the woodpile can be rearranged. Silver Trumpets In the Holy Temple, silver trumpets are used during the Divine service, as well as for announcing the arrival of the Shabbat, the New Moon, the three Festivals, and for other various occasions.
The Crown One of the four "golden garments" of the high priest is the crown, fashioned from one single piece of pure gold. The crown is worn across the forehead, extending from ear to ear, (as pictured in the inset above). It is held in place by a string dyed in the same blue color as used in all the high priest's garments. The crown bears the inscription: "Holy to G-d," and is worn by the high priest at all times, while he is officiating in the Temple.
137
Garments of the High Priest We are pleased to announce that the weaving of the sacred Ephod garment for the uniform of the High Priest has been completed. The Temple Institute has also completed the complicated task of joining the ephod to the remembrance stones, and affixing the breastplate. This complex project has been based on extensive research by the Institute. With G-d's help this task has been completed and the results have been made public. Gold Plated Shophar The goldplated shofar, (ram's horn), is blown in the Holy Temple on Rosh Hashana.
Copper Vessel for the Meal Offering The copper vessel is used for preparing the meal offering. Meal offerings are made using various amounts of flour, oil and spices. Silver Shovel The silver shovel is kept on the southwestern corner of the altar. The shovel is used for the removal of ashes left on the altar, the first task performed by the priests each morning at the break of dawn.
138
Silver Vessel for Wine Libation The silver decanter is used for the wine libation. Wine is poured on the altar twice daily, morning and evening, accompanying the daily service. Lottery Box On Yom Kippur, the High Priest reaches into the lottery box and chooses lots. Thus is determined which goat will be used as an offering to G-d, and which will be sent off to Azazel, as an atonement for the sins of the people. During the First Temple, the lots were fashioned of wood. In the time of the Second Temple, they were of gold. The lots pictured above are fashioned of both wood and gold.
Silver Libation Vessels One of the main aspects of the holiday of Sukkot (Tabernacles) is the Biblical commandment, "And you shall be glad on your holiday, and you shall be only joyful" (Deut. 16:14). Indeed, the pilgrims who arrived in Jerusalem at the Temple's courtyard came to rejoice. The focus of this rejoicing was the ceremony surrounding the commandment to pour water on the altar - the water libation. These vessels were designed and created by the famed HaTzorfim company, Israel's most prestigious craftsmen of fine Judaica. The owners of this company felt a deep stirring to begin creating vessels for the new Temple, and they are now working on a number of projects together with the Temple Institute. The Sikles On the 16th day of Nissan, in a public gathering on the outskirts of Jerusalem, the first of the barley crop is harvested using sickles. This barley is then brought to the Holy Temple to be used in the Omer offering.
139
The Ark of the Covenant is one of the most fascinating of all Templerelated subjects. There are many theories about what happened to the Ark of the Covenant, and speculation abounds as to its actual location. Some people think it was taken to the Vatican, together with other Temple vessels, such as those depicted on the Roman monument, the Arch of Titus. There are many authentic, ancient historical chronicles, and even more popular legends, that attest to many sacred vessels having been taken away to Rome. However, this does not apply to the most holy feature of the First Temple, the Ark. While some claim to have evidence that the ark is in Ethiopia, and of course, moviegoers were treated to a fanciful version of the story in "Raiders of the Lost Ark," in reality, the expression "lost" ark is not an accurate description for the Jewish people‘s point of view - because we have always known exactly where it is. So the Ark is "Hidden," and hidden quite well, but it is not lost. Tradition records that even as King Solomon built the First Temple, he already knew, through Divine inspiration, that eventually it would be destroyed. Thus Solomon, the wisest of all men, oversaw the construction of a vast system of labyrinths, mazes, chambers and corridors underneath the Temple Mount complex. He commanded that a special place be built in the bowels of the earth, where the sacred vessels of the Temple could be hidden in case of approaching danger. Midrashic tradition teaches that King Josiah of Israel, who lived about forty years before the destruction of the First Temple, commanded the Levites to hide the Ark, together with the original menorah and several other items*, in this secret hiding place which Solomon had prepared. This location is recorded in our sources, and today, there are those who know exactly where this chamber is. And we know that the ark is still there, undisturbed, and waiting for the day when it will be revealed. An attempt was made some few years ago to excavate towards the direction of this chamber. This resulted in widespread Moslem unrest and rioting. They stand a great deal to lose if the Ark is revealed - for it will prove to the whole world that there really was a Holy Temple, and thus, that the Jews really do have a claim to the Temple Mount. (The official position of the Islamic Wakf, the body that governs over the Temple Mount, is that there never was a Holy Temple, and that the Jews have no rights whatsoever to the place).

14. The Copper Scroll Project by Jim Barfield
History The Copper Scroll, found near the Dead Sea in Israel 1952, is literally a copper metal document approximately seven feet long listing about 60 locations of very large amounts of gold, silver, and gems from the time of Moses and from the time of King Solomon. The items and precious metals were set-apart to be used in the worship of the G-d of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; initially in the Tabernacle of Moses, but finally in the Temple of Solomon. Jerusalem was under siege and Jeremiah realized that if the valuables were not hidden before the Babylonian invasion was complete...they would be lost forever. So begins the story and mystery of the ancient document named, "The Copper Scroll".

14. The Euphrates River Drying up
The Euphrates is drying up. Strangled by the water policies of Iraq‘s neighbours, Turkey and Syria; a two-year drought; and years of misuse by Iraq and its farmers, the river is significantly smaller than it was just a few years ago. Some officials worry that it could soon be half of what it is now. The shrinking of the Euphrates, a river so crucial to the birth of civilization that the Book of Revelation prophesied its drying up as a sign of the end times, has decimated farms along its banks, has left fishermen impoverished and has depleted riverside towns as farmers flee to the cities looking for work. Rev 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. The poor suffer more acutely, but all strata of society are feeling the effects: sheiks, diplomats and even members of Parliament who retreat to their farms after weeks in Baghdad. Along the river, rice and wheat fields have turned to baked dirt. Canals have dwindled to shallow streams, and fishing boats sit on dry land. Pumps meant to feed water treatment plants dangle pointlessly over brown puddles. ―The old men say it‘s the worst they remember,‖ said Sayid Diyia, 34, a fisherman in Hindiya, sitting in a riverside cafe full of his idle colleagues. ―I‘m depending on God‘s blessings.‖ The drought is widespread in Iraq. The area sown with wheat and barley in the rain-fed north is down roughly 95 percent from the usual, and the date palm and citrus orchards of the east are parched.
142
For two years rainfall has been far below normal, leaving the reservoirs dry, and American officials predict that wheat and barley output will be a little over half of what it was two years ago. It is a crisis that threatens the roots of Iraq‘s identity, not only as the land between two rivers but as a nation that was once the largest exporter of dates in the world, that once supplied German beer with barley and that takes patriotic pride in its expensive Anbar rice. Now Iraq is importing more and more grain. Farmers along the Euphrates say, with anger and despair, that they may have to abandon Anbar rice for cheaper varieties. Droughts are not rare in Iraq, though officials say they have been more frequent in recent years. But drought is only part of what is choking the Euphrates and its larger, healthier twin, the Tigris. The most frequently cited culprits are the Turkish and Syrian governments. Iraq has plenty of water, but it is a downstream country. There are at least seven dams on the Euphrates in Turkey and Syria, according to Iraqi water officials, and with no treaties or agreements, the Iraqi government is reduced to begging its neighbors for water. At a conference in Baghdad — where participants drank bottled water from Saudi Arabia, a country with a fraction of Iraq‘s fresh water — officials spoke of disaster. ―We have a real thirst in Iraq,‖ said Ali Baban, the minister of planning. ―Our agriculture is going to die, our cities are going to wilt, and no state can keep quiet in such a situation.‖ Recently, the Water Ministry announced that Turkey had doubled the water flow into the Euphrates, salvaging the planting phase of the rice season in some areas. That move increased water flow to about 60 percent of its average, just enough to cover half of the irrigation requirements for the summer rice season. Though Turkey has agreed to keep this up and even increase it, there is no commitment binding the country to do so. With the Euphrates showing few signs of increasing health, bitterness over Iraq‘s water threatens to be a source of tension for months or even years to come between Iraq and its neighbors. Many American, Turkish and even Iraqi officials, disregarding the accusations as election-year posturing, say the real problem lies in Iraq‘s own deplorable water management policies. ―There used to be water everywhere,‖ said Abduredha Joda, 40, sitting in his reed hut on a dry, rocky plot of land outside Karbala.
143
Mr. Joda, who describes his dire circumstances with a tired smile, grew up near Basra but fled to Baghdad when Saddam Hussein drained the great marshes of southern Iraq in retaliation for the 1991 Shiite uprising. He came to Karbala in 2004 to fish and raise water buffaloes in the lush wetlands there that remind him of his home. ―This year it‘s just a desert,‖ he said. Along the river, there is no shortage of resentment at the Turks and Syrians. But there is also resentment at the Americans, Kurds, Iranians and the Iraqi government, all of whom are blamed. Scarcity makes foes of everyone. The Sunni areas upriver seem to have enough water, Mr. Joda observed, a comment heavy with implication. Officials say nothing will improve if Iraq does not seriously address its own water policies and its history of flawed water management. Leaky canals and wasteful irrigation practices squander the water, and poor drainage leaves fields so salty from evaporated water that women and children dredge huge white mounds from sitting pools of runoff. On a scorching morning in Diwaniya, Bashia Mohammed, 60, was working in a drainage pool by the highway gathering salt, her family‘s only source of income now that its rice farm has dried up. But the dead farm was not the real crisis. ―There‘s no water in the river that we drink from,‖ she said, referring to a channel that flows from the Euphrates. ―It‘s now totally dry, and it contains sewage water. They dig wells but sometimes the water just cuts out and we have to drink from the river. All my kids are sick because of the water.‖ In the southeast, where the Euphrates nears the end of its 1,730-mile journey and mingles with the less salty waters of the Tigris before emptying into the Persian Gulf, the situation is grave. The marshes there that were intentionally reflooded in 2003, rescuing the ancient culture of the marsh Arabs, are drying up again. Sheep graze on land in the middle of the river. The farmers, reed gatherers and buffalo herders keep working, but they say they cannot continue if the water stays like this. ―Next winter will be the final chance,‖ said Hashem Hilead Shehi, a 73-year-old farmer who lives in a bone-dry village west of the marshes. ―If we are not able to plant, then all of the families will leave.‖
