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

A look back at the news stories/commentaries from this past week that have serious prophetic implications...

• Is Maitreya The Antichrist?
• "Mark My Words..." Revisited
• God Is In Control
• A Warning From Hosea
• Rituals, Symbols, And Numbers
• A Very Real New World Order
• MarketWatch: How Realistic Is A North American Currency?
  

Ok, so today I thought I'd unveil a new feature here on Look Up Fellowship that I call "Freaky Friday: Fantasy Or Fact?" that will appear every week on - - you guessed it - - Friday.

I've concluded that the more surreal and "out there" our reality becomes, the harder it is to talk about such things (what I see as being prophetically significant) seriously especially in a Christian forum like this. Gosh, any quick look at the Comments portion of each article will prove this sometimes!

Of course, I'm very grateful because a majority of you wouldn't be here regularly if you didn't seem to think that we were on to something, and that God - - as prophesied - - is no longer "shutting up the words" or "sealing the book" since this is now "the time of the end" (Daniel 12:4). So, that being said, these "F4 (FFFF)" columns will be more for those people who just happen to stumble upon this site.

The theories and ideas expressed in this category will most likely reflect the very real thoughts and questions I have about a particular subject (those that immediately stir my soul and set off bells and whistles within), but to avoid the "you're-just-another-crazy-crackpot-tin-foil-hat-wearing-Christian-doomsday-wacko" label, I figured that by writing about such things under the banner of "Freaky Friday: Fantasy Or Fact?" it would give me greater leeway in exploring such ideas, and prevent people from simply writing me off from the start.

In addition, I want to officially invite you to forward me your ideas, observations, and theories as well since this is where they would be explored (some of you have already done that - - thank you).


F4: MARK OF THE BEAST SYSTEM IMMINENT?


Without further adieu, I give you our first installment in this new section: "Freaky Friday: Was A Recent Headline A Signal To Implement The Mark Of The Beast System?" The headline? "Ancient Lefties: The History Of Obama's Handedness" as found on Yahoo! yesterday. I'll explain in a moment. Trust me, this will be fun.


A brief aside. I must give credit where credit is due. Keeping in mind that it's a secular forum (but that in no way diminishes the credibility of his amazing work; I just wanted to note that fact for those of you who might visit his site), Christopher Knowles of The Secret Sun was the one who first identified the strange and almost supernatural tone to the various headlines that appear on Yahoo's Main Page, which he called "Yahooccultism." Here's where it all began and here's the link to more examples for you. I know, it sounds absurd! It's a good thing we're discussing this within the context of this new "Freaky Friday" series, but hear me out on this one. Whatever it is, there's no denying Knowles' observation that, "What I see is a process where this kind of information and conditioning will simply become more and more a part of the media white noise until it becomes fait accompli. And then everyone will act like they all knew it all along." Precisely!

Perhaps this next section will help to clarify my thinking. First, we need to consider how any form of advertising and marketing works on its intended audience psychologically. Simply put, words convey meaning and emotions whether we are conscious of them or not. Images do the same thing. If there was nothing to this field of study then politicians would never give speeches, Hollywood wouldn't exist, companies wouldn't spend millions of dollars each year (or each minute!) to promote their products/services, and Hitler would never have employed the use of so much Nazi propaganda through symbolism.

Now that we've laid the foundation we need to recall the other piece of this puzzle. Recently, we documented the existence of so-called "secret societies" and highlighted the fact that many powerful politicians (let alone corporate executives from some of the most well-known companies in the world) share a common bond through membership in these exclusive groups. We've also presented evidence to prove that throughout their existence these organizations and its participating members of ruling class elites seem to demonstrate a singular hunger - - world domination and control over everyone and everything. Clearly, this has to be how their mere existence factors into the entire end times scenario as prophesied in the Holy Bible. How else do you explain the current obsession with creating a New World Order (i.e. prophesied one-world government) that the future Antichrist will use in his rise to power? Again, Satan and his army are not going to simply show up one day waving a flag and shouting through a megaphone, "Hey everyone! The Antichrist and his one-world everything is finally here! Now, we're going to destroy you all!" It's just not going to work that way.

Now, let's remember that the key to all of this is to first understand that occult symbolism is their language, and it functions as a power tool of socialization and recognition. These people believe that such symbolism holds the key to unlocking spiritual forces of power for them to wield here on Earth, and heir language (the way they communicate with each throughout the world) is through the use of RITUALS, SYMBOLS, and NUMBERS, which is done in honor and worship of the ancient gods and goddesses they worship. Once you understand that language you can almost recognize each time they are "communicating" with one another.

The key is to look at all the major news headlines and key information within the story itself as pieces of a big puzzle. The way it usually works for me is that I'll begin to see different pieces of the same whole emerge from many different and unlikely sources - - strangely at roughly the same time too - - and once I recognize the way in which they all might be related to one another I somehow "connect" them together to form a more complete whole of the same thread. Does that make any sense whatsoever?

Look, I know how this all sounds, but since this is "Freaky Friday: Fact Or Fiction?" I'm hoping you'll indulge me for the remainder of this piece. Maybe this is a good time to encourage you to read Sue Bradley's latest work because she does a much better job explaining things than I ever could. I think she nails it when she wrote about this nation (although she could've just as easily have been writing to the entire world), "Many continue to mull the enigmatic and ill-defined circumstances which have beset this once prospering republic, yet any explanation lacking the inclusion of spiritual examination is premised upon the inaccurate."

Why is that? Why is a "supernatural" and/or "spiritual" explanation of anything off limits these days? I propose that what makes these elites of the secret societies so powerful is the fact that they believe in and acknowledge the very real spiritual forces at work in our daily lives. Albeit dark forces, but still. Did you know that another common bond between these groups is their motto of sorts, which is that their plans are "Hidden In Plain Sight" because that would certainly give credence to this "theory" would it not? Franklin Roosevelt, abundantly aware of esoteric symbolism even cautioned us way back when: "In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way."

Ok, let's circle back around so I can try to tie this all together. Assuming all the above is true, there was something strange about not only the appearance of this article (I mean, with all that's going on in this world today who really cares if the President and past Presidents were right-handed or left-handed!?!), but some of the things written within it. Specifically, the initial focus on the piece, one word, and one phrase that kept coming up, and I couldn't determine why I had personally reacted to it in the way that I had.

"Left-handed tools chipped 500,000 years ago"
"Six (or about 11 percent) were chipped using the left hand."

Seems innocent enough. So the words "chipped" were used. So what? I know, I know, but I don't know why, but their inclusion in this "news story" seemed very odd to me and I'll tell you why. I mean, why even use that angle in this discussion? My immediate and overwhelming thought was, "Oh my! Is this the 'go signal' between the elites announcing that the 'mark' is coming as an answer to our economic problems?" My very next thought was, "Man, you sure need some sleep! You've been 'on watch' for too long lately and it's starting to affect you!"

Could these powerful elites be practicing "Yahooccultism" to communicate with each other on a daily basis? Anything's possible. Is it likely though, even with their "Hidden In Plain View" taunts? Well, before you dismiss the concept entirely just ask yourself what's more prevalent and "in-your-face" than the Yahoo! Home Page. I think film and television fits that description quite nicely, and we all know how far back the government's use of and involvement with Hollywood goes to advance their own agenda. Is it really so far-fetched then to think that the same could be said about the Internet? Plus, does anyone else find it ironic that within the context of this debate the picture they use of Obama with the article is him waving with his right hand (nothing prophetic about that in relation to a conversation about the Mark is there?) as opposed to his left hand? I mean, we're talking about him being left-handed are we not?

Even skeptics have to wonder though (at least a little) because I should remind you that it was Vice President Joe Biden (then Senator Biden) who gave another "mark my words" moment to us. In this particular case, it was during the confirmation hearing of Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. Former Senator and now Vice President Joe Biden stated that RFID Chip Implants (an invention that fits the prophesied "Mark of the Beast" technology/system perfectly; not inherently evil, but the way someone like the Antichrist would use it to control mass population would make it definitely so) will be ruled on, and that he was concerned how a Chief Justice John Roberts would rule on such a proposal. What was that!?! Yes, he actually said it! Here's the video:



Well, there you have it. Not only will we be getting a "mark my words" generated crisis that will help a superman savior figure like the Antichrist to step in and "save us," (Maitreya anyone?) but we can also expect a "mark my words" landmark decision by the Supreme Court to determine the legality of implanting chips into humans and of using brain scans to determine which American citizens are deemed hostile and a threat - - both tools that this Antichrist figure will undoubtedly use to subject us to his authoritarian control!

What else? Ah yes, I also had to laugh because here we have yet another story about "The One" where the author attempts to connect him to being a messiah figure as evidenced by the statement, "The laundry list of lefties goes on through history, with records telling us that a number of famous ancient figures probably favored their southpaw as well, from Alexander the Great to Charlemagne, Holy Roman emperor." A "Related Article" was even included at the end of the story titled "Can Obama Save The Planet?"


COULD THE CHOICE OF "FACTS" BE A SLEIGHT OF HAND?


Again, assuming the proposed theory is true, then we need to consider the writer's choice of facts that were included in this piece as being carefully hand-picked to convey a very specific message to a very specific audience.

How else do you explain the inclusion of the Kenyan roots of left-handed people except in that it would give them reason to use the "signal/code words" like chip and chipped. Honestly, it is bizarre to me why they chose that fact out of all the others having to do with the existence, evolution, and mystique surrounding left-handedness. I would know because I'm left handed myself! In fact, I have a book called "Lefties: The Origins & Consequences Of Being Left-Handed" by Jack Fincher and there are very easily many more interesting things within this 200 page book that make the Kenyan facts seem inappropriate and ridiculous.


For instance, since this is a Christian website let's quickly look at a few facts about left-handedness from a religious perspective. After all, the Bible (and with it the full weight of both orthodox Judaism and Christianity) overwhelmingly favors one hand at the expense of the other. Predictably, things that are "good" in the Bible are said to be "righteous" while those that are "bad" are said to be "left out." Both the Old Testament and the New Testament refer repeatedly to the grace and power residing in, on, or at "the right hand of God" and His only begotten Son. For His part, in the Sermon on the Mount, Christ cryptically counsels His followers in doing charity to "let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth" (Matthew 6:3). The most ominous of this right/left dichotomy has to be Matthew 25:32-41 expressed by Jesus and having to do with the Last Judgment.

According to Jane Dillenberger, an authority on Biblical art at the Graduate Theological Seminary in Berkeley, the overweening right-handedness of its symbolism is as near to an absolute as anything in the Judeo-Christian tradition. Ambidextrous actually means "right-handed on both sides." It also means "hypocritical" or "deceptive" - - which, come to think of it, is a pretty accurate description of this whole sorry affair! Bottom line, left, in a word, is almost universally bad.

Here's my point...This was a "news story" about politicians who are left-handed. Forget about trying to figure out why this was even classified as being important enough today that people would want to read about it with everything else going on, but instead ask yourself this: In a political article about left-handedness wouldn't it have been much more appropriate to include the fact that the early Greeks, who in a presumably weak moment gave their word for left, aristera, to the aristocrats ("those best qualified to govern")? I'm just saying. Food for thought.


CONCLUSIONS: FACT OR FICTION?


In closing, I'm reminded of a few things.

"An Occult Hierarchy rules the world, and directs the course of human events. The movement is led by powerful men who reject Christianity, embrace the 'dark side,' and are dedicated to the formation of a world government and a world religion. Millions of people seeking 'a new spirituality' follow them. They control the government, the media, the tax-exempt foundations, many corporations, and both political parties." Stanley Monteith, MD

"The objectives of the occult masters and the very real forces they serve is overlooked by average citizens, and yet, according to sacred texts, a collaboration exists between such unregenerate social architects and fallen angels. If the electorate becomes bewitched of this truth, humans in league with demons can increase their control of the machine of municipal government through sophisticated networks of both visible and invisible principalities. This happens subconsciously or intentionally among those vulnerable to the sinister dark plan. This is a picture of a world system average people never comprehend. If most of humanity could see through the veil into the invisible world that inhabits this planet, they would find a world alive with good against evil. It is a place where the prize is the souls of men, and where legions war for control of its cities and people. The end game for the darkest of these powers - - together with their human counterparts - - is to stand in the place of God." Tom Horn

"There is a profusion of information, mis-information, dis-information but mostly mis-direction. There is a roster of participants, many unwitting, some with purpose, behind whom there is also an ancient legion of prodigiously adept and supernaturally equipped players." Sue Bradley

Surely, this theory of mine could be nothing at all. Then again, it could be everything. If we were somehow "listening in" on a message sent to the "enlightened" or "illuminated" ones of elite society then considering that this might have to do with the Mark of the Beast makes sense. Satan wants to mimic, mock, and destroy anything that's of or from God. We've just seen the favor of the right over the left in Christianity and the Bible so perhaps that's why the Antichrist will force people to take his Mark of the Beast on their right hand one day - - to mock God.

Ultimately, it bears watching given what we've looked at together today in this first installment of "Freaky Friday: Fact Or Fiction?" I hope you enjoyed this trip down the rabbit hole with me!

May God grant you wisdom and discernment to spot the lies and recognize the fact from the fiction. Be mindful of the numerous rituals, symbols, and numbers. No, not in pursuit of studying the occult, but a cursory knowledge that will help you to spot whenever these events occur in the real world that contain special significance.

We need to constantly be on guard and defend ourselves and our loved ones from the evil and deception that has seeped into our world because it's only going to get worse.

God bless! Maranatha!

Forget about spiritual warfare. It's an outright spiritual invasion we need to worry about.

It seems like with each passing day we get another report of a brutal murder, unbridled mayhem, or just plain weirdness occurring in our world. Proof that the end times spiritual invasion has begun.

Ben Fairhall recently wrote, "What manner of diabolism is abroad in the world, when a man dressed as Santa Claus kills nine members of the same family in a town named Covina - - for the vineyard, the sacred bloodline of Scythia, Egypt and the Holy Land? And less than a month later, when a woman and two babies are killed by a resident of Sint-Niklaas, in a town whose flag is an explicit depiction of that same Scarlet Thread, the Sang Real? (Click here.) Welcome to life at the End of the World. Where the star is always the same; and only the faces and the scenery change."

So true, and so sad. Even so, does anyone else feel as if the boundaries between the spiritual and the physical are deteriorating as a rapid rate? I mean, how else do you explain the sudden surge in bizarre violence taking place in the world just this past week alone?

First, another gruesome tragedy at Virginia Tech where a student was decapitated. Second, a despicable crime in Belgium. What isn't being reported in the Western media, however, is how this killer was influenced by Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker in the latest Batman film, and that it occurred on the 1-year anniversary of his death. Third, the story about a 24 year old man in Portland, Oregon indiscriminately shooting 9 people (the majority being High School exchange students) at an "under 21" nightclub known as "The Zone" on Saturday night. Next, we read about that horrific murder/suicide case involving a family in Los Angeles, CA. Then, I learned about the 22 killed in the continuing anarchy in Mexico. Today, I find this.


Students at a Mississippi high school said a fellow student spoke in tongues and made grave predictions for her classmates for three days. Some of those predictions included when students would die.

Pelahatchie High School students called reporters from TV station WAPT, convinced that an evil spirit had taken over Lashundra Clanton. "It was disturbing to a lot of students," Pelahatchie sophomore Rob Sparks said.

This week, Sparks said one of his classmates came to school in tears. She was speaking in a deep voice, he said, and sometimes spoke in tongues. Sparks said Clanton told students about little-known facts in their past and made predictions on how some of them would die. Sparks and his classmates said they think an evil spirit possessed the girl. They were so convinced that Sparks and his friends brought Bibles to school and had a devotional.

"Some believe, some don't." Clanton said. "They say it was the devil, but the devil only tells lies. Everything I said was the truth." Clanton said she admits she spoke in tongues and made predictions for her classmates, but she said it was God speaking through her, not the devil. "I didn't cuss anyone out," Clanton said. "If it was a demon, I would have tore that school up. I would have thrown desks and everything. I didn't say no cuss words at all."

Regardless of the truth in this circumstance, I think we can all agree that the lines between the seen and the unseen are becoming blurry as the fade away into nonexistence.

Interesting happenings these days indeed. In fact, it seems to resonate with what we just looked at concerning Russ Dizdar's work on what he calls "The Black Awakening" that is in our near future.

That being said, while these isolated events depict that a spiritual invasion is already underway they are nothing compared to the horror and destruction that this world will see!

Now is the time to cling to the Lord and Savior for protection.

Obviously, both January 21st and January 22nd came and went without any catastrophe. Praise the Lord for His mercy, lovingkindess, and unparalleled patience despite our nation's sins so that more are given a chance to be saved by Him!

That original column generated a ton of interest and got a lot of us talking and sharing theories given everyone's own independent research on the subject. That being said, I think it's only appropriate to follow-up with a companion piece that attempts to refine our focus and analysis a bit.

Three key observations I have made since have astounded me:


1. God's fingerprints on the heavens (or what we would call space) is there for a reason. Remember, it was Satan who created a counterfeit of God's creation and man's resulting knowledge of Astronomy when he created Astrology (a perversion and an occult practice). It was God who had set the stars and planets in the heavens as a testament - - a storyboard if you will - - of His handiwork. In addition, it seems apparent that on Earth, things here often are mirrored by what's in the heavens. For instance, most scholars would agree that the measurements of the Earthly temple reflects things that are in the Heavenly temple. Just take another look at the Book of Job (the oldest book in the entire Bible, which provides us with some commentary on this subject let alone some great astronomical truths).


2. Perhaps January 21st/22nd was an important date, but not in the way we thought it would be. The one thing that's been bothering me since publishing that article was something I uncovered courtesy of the British press only a couple of days later. Even though I didn't find it until later, a questionable "photo gallery" appeared during the time period in question. It was Part 2 of a "fictional" slideshow about what would happen if nuclear devices were set off in major cities. What are the odds of that? I mean, curious timing, no? The culprits? Terrorists - - "Christian doomsday cultists" actually (because we all know there's a ton of those in the world today who present a serious threat to mankind) who "joined forces with extremists and Islamists." Seriously. I couldn't possibly make this stuff up! Now, consider all of that within the context of end times prophecy. Eerie isn't it?

Check out the original 2-part slideshow (Part 3 hasn't been released yet, but when it is I'll reference it for sure): Operation Blackjack (PART 1) AND Blackjack (PART 2). It seems that Part 2 (again, released during this particular window of 1/21 and 1/22) provided the first mention of the ultimate fate (destiny?) of the U.S. after London was hit by a terrorist nuclear attack. Notice anything odd about that name? Hmmm, isn't Blackjack a card game where you win by scoring 21? On second thought, it's almost like a "checkmate" in chess because if you score 21 you automatically win, and beat the house every time. That's oddly symbolic especially in light of the "mark my words" pronouncements given for January 21st and January 22nd. Again, what are the odds!?! Pun intended. They're definitely a bit more "in-your-face" about it all these days (there are no more secrets!), which leads me to believe they're confident in what's about to happen.

However, something that caught my eye is that these attacks are given with the date June 22, 2009. Why is that interesting? Well, going back to Biden's comments he did say it would happen within 6 months. He didn't clarify at the time if he meant 6 months from the date he was speaking such words in October or 6 months from the time Obama takes office. Powell was the one that said the crisis "that we don't even know about yet" would first present itself on either January 21st or January 22nd. So, one wonders...Maybe both men were referring to two different parts of the same event. Could Biden have meant that within 6 months of Obama taking office this "generated crisis" would occur? Because if so that would put things squarely in the month of June or precisely the time frame given with this "fictional" account. Could Powell have meant that on January 21st or January 22nd is when we would finally learn how this "generated crisis" would manifest itself? Because if so this "photo gallery" would fit. After all, Biden did say that he couldn't pinpoint where this "generated crisis" would come from yet, but could certainly "give you four or five scenarios..." Remember that part of his speech? Maybe this is why he said those things. Perhaps the plans hadn't been finalized and approved yet, but this slideshow was confirmation of what had been decided upon by the elite puppet-masters.

As mentioned, despite calls, questions, and complaints to the UK Telegraph as to the purpose and origins of a bizarre, offensive, and crudely put together “photo gallery” depicting a nuclear attack on London, the newspaper is featuring part two of “Blackjack” on its website, which portrays 6 major cities being nuked before a fascist “Union of North America” is implemented. The first installment of the gallery featured on a section of the Telegraph website dedicated to art, culture, film and music, but seemingly held no artistic credence whatsoever, comprising merely of a series of crude pictures designed to instill fear into the viewer. The series of images is also replete with occult symbols with which those who have researched the Illuminati will be familiar. In the second part of the series, at 8:03am on June 22nd, 6 cities (New York City, Washington D.C., Toronto, Mexico City, Portland, and Los Angeles) all suffer a nuclear attack as mushroom clouds are depicted rising over the skyscrapers. The crumbling remains of the cities are shown one week later. The final few images show a revised U.S. flag with 5 stars in the middle, with black fighter jets roaring overhead as well as a “Department of Homeland Security Emergency Transmission” that tells people to “Stay at home and await further instructions.” The logo on the bottom right of the mock screenshot is of a Nazi-style eagle below the words “UNION OF NORTH AMERICA.” At the bottom of the logo are the words “Norvus Ordo Seclorum” or alternatively “Norvus Ordo Emporium” (the resolution isn’t high enough to make out the last word). Norvus Ordo Seclorum translates as “New Order of the Ages” or more traditionally, “New World Order.” The last image shows a British police officer with the Nazi-style eagle on his helmet and the “Union of North America” flag on his uniform. Presumably the message being sent is that a series of nuclear terror attacks will bring in a fascist style world government that will be headed by a union of America, Canada, Mexico, and Britain. Watch the full gallery of part two via the YouTube below and reach your own conclusions.



The entire project left me with many questions. What on earth is the purpose of this “photo gallery”, who is the author, and why is it being featured on a major UK newspaper website with no explanation whatsoever? Without proper clarification, this amounts to nothing more than bizarre fear mongering and propaganda. It is also downright offensive to people who live in the 7 cities being depicted as targets for the nuclear attacks. According to readers who contacted and questioned the Telegraph as to the origin and meaning of the picture gallery, the response was belligerent and hostile. Others who called the Telegraph received the same aggressive, interrogative overreaction when they asked about the gallery, but the questions need to keep being asked. This so-called “gallery” has no artistic merit whatsoever, so what is it doing in the “arts and culture” section of a major British newspaper? Part 2 cannot even be considered to have a plot, it just shows a series of major cities being nuked and then amateurish photo-shopped images of Nazi-style symbols on flags and police uniforms. Is someone’s sick fantasy being afforded exposure on a major UK newspaper website or are we being prepared for something? Is the UK's Telegraph being used to telegraph their plans? The rude and hostile response to people who have attempted to get clarification from the Telegraph only deepens the mystery. Contact dtnews@telegraph.co.uk and politely ask for clarification on who the author of the gallery is, why it is being run when it obviously has no artistic merit, and if the Telegraph has considered the offense it is causing to people who live in the cities being depicted as victims of nuke attacks.

Surprisingly, David Flynn's extensive research indicates that late June 2009 or early July 2009 is going to be extremely significant prophetically. In fact, that is when he believes that the ministry of the counterfeit Christ - - the rule of the Antichrist - - will actually begin! His findings are independently verifiable too, and they're based on Newton's Unified Field Theory! What are the odds of all of this!?! See the next paragraph for more on Flynn's work and amazing discoveries, which will put this all in greater context.

3. Further research uncovered some truly remarkable prophetic findings!!!
I was listening to a radio interview that David Flynn (author of "Temple At The Center Of Time," which claims to have broken Newton's Unified Field Theory) gave back in August 2008 when he begin discussing the possible location of the Ark of the Covenant. As students of eschatology, we know that the Ark will play a significant role in the fulfillment of end times prophecy. The finding of an ancient ark would be the catalyst that motivates the Jews to rebuild the Temple. That's where this discovery began. 2 Maccabees and 2 Chronicles shares an amazing connection. You can go to Jerusalem, go to the Temple Mount, and if you look through the Eastern Gate the site of Mount Nebo itself is perfectly East to the Eastern Gate.


Here's where it gets interesting! Mount Nebo exists and is supposedly the place where Moses went up, and then had disappeared from the Israelites. In the New Testament Book of Jude we're told that his body was recovered, but the Old Testament says that he went up to Mount Nebo to see his inheritance, but he wasn't allowed to go into Palestine. Soon after, he died and supposedly this is where the angels buried him. Jeremiah was also motivated to place the Ark of the Covenant someplace in that area. That was the mountain where this all occurred. Nebo is actually from a root word in Hebrew that means "prophet" itself. Interestingly enough, it's connected to the god Mercury who I also learned was the pagan god of prophecy, and responsible for conveying messages from gods to men! But it gets deeper! It is from the name of the god Nebo that the name of King Nebuchadnezzar was derived. Nebuchadnezzar (the king of Babylon when it destroyed Jerusalem) his name actually means "praise of Mercury" or basically "Nebo the god of Mercury in Babylon" or "Protected by Nebo" so there's this strange connection as well! Nebuchadnezzar symbolizes "logical mind wedded with desire" the typical ruler of earthy kings. Typically, we of today are "kings" like Nebuchadnezzar - - we have our great logic and science and have been blessed with seeming power and possession of the world's things.

So, again, there's this strange connection between pagan idolatry (those things honored and worshipped by the ruling class elites who a vast majority are a part of the numerous so-called "secret societies" all currently pushing for a New World Order or one-world government) of a god that conveys information, and from the name for the very prophets of God in that one place - - that mountain - - that happens to be the sacred cubit in relationship to the Temple Mount and exactly at the same latitude as the Temple Mount! What could God be trying to tell us with all of this? Is the "discovery" of the Ark of the Covenant and the resulting rebuilding of the Temple imminent?


Our God never ceases to amaze me! I mean, it's just incredible to me the layers upon layers of information that He is giving us these days, and all because He wants us to know clearly the times we are living in so that we can alert others before it's too late.

So, what do you think about all of this? What have you found? What has God impressed upon your heart regarding this subject matter?

One final note. Upon reading this intro yesterday at WashingtonPost.com, Joe Biden's much-examined prediction of a crisis "right around January 21st or 22nd" popped into recall:

"President Obama's top advisers are in the final stages of debating several perilous options to right the financial system, all of which are likely to prove unpopular and in some cases carry a significant risk of failure, according to sources in contact with the officials. The rapid deterioration of the economy has accentuated these hard choices. But each proposal is fraught with the risk of undermining the banking system, leaving Obama officials wrestling with how to strike the proper mix of emergency programs funded from the balance of the government's initial rescue program and any additional money requested from Congress."

Only a little stretching changes the meaning from "right after inauguration" to "a feature of the first 100 days." Maybe the important suggestion is that something that might merit comparison with 9/11 is definitely to be expected before too long (43 was tested, will 44 slip through untested?).

Whatever the process may be that conveys these bread crumbs of info and assembles them in our reckoning, are we getting hints of a forthcoming "White House decision" expected to be received by a largely disapproving public?

I believe we are.

***UPDATE 2/4/09: Former Vice President Dick Cheney: Obama Policies Mean "High Probability" That Terrorists Will Attempt Catastrophic Nuclear Or Biological Attack : Former Vice President Dick Cheney warned that there is a “high probability” that terrorists will attempt a catastrophic nuclear or biological attack in coming years, and said he fears the Obama administration’s policies will make it more likely the attempt will succeed.***

Does Isaiah 17 say that Israel will one day nuke Damascus, Syria?

Isaiah 17:1 - - "The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap"

Personally, I think what the Bible tells us in Isaiah 17 about Damascus' disappearance is one of the easiest prophecies to understand and figure out its place on God's prophetic timeline.

Damascus is famous for being the world's oldest city. Therefore, it is obvious we have an unfulfilled prophecy here. Another thing is immediately obvious as well: this prophecy is telling us that Damascus will be nuked, as I believe that nuclear weapons are the only way in modern times that a city would become "a ruinous heap" and cease "from being a city."

But when? Well, a few verses later we get a better idea of the time, and I'm afraid we may be quickly approaching the appointed time.

Isaiah 17:12-14 - - "Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters! The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind. And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us."



Another Arab assault on Israel to wipe her from memory and steal her land (compare this with Psalm 83, which we've looked at quite a bit in recent weeks especially in relation to Bill Salus' explosive book "Isralestine," because it actually describes this same war on Israel by the only people in the world that want to "cut her off from being a nation that no one remember the name of Israel anymore").

The Isaiah 17/Psalm 83 War involves all the nations around Israel going at her. The current conflict between the Israelis and Hamas is only a skirmish in the grand scheme of things, and I do not see a reason any other countries would dare to get involved yet. I believe they are all biding their time until they can neutralize the nuclear trump card that Israel holds. Iran is working on that. Once Iran has Shehab-3 missiles with nuclear payloads, then I will be concerned about them using them soon, before they can be taken away or destroyed.

Unfortunately, two news reports from the past couple of days tell us we're getting dangerously close to fulfilling this prophecy. First, during "Operation Cast Lead," Israel warned Syria that it would bomb sites and facilities in Damascus if Hizbullah fired rockets on Israeli towns and communities in the North, Egyptian paper Al Ahram reported Tuesday so there's your direct reference to the Damascus prophecy. Yet, what about the other piece of this puzzle? You know, the part about this Arab coalition wanting to neutralize the nuclear threat? Well, it seems we got an update on that front as well since it was reported that Iran will have a nuclear weapon this year!

As of January 29, 2009, Damascus is still around, but the clock is ticking.

About a month ago Dr. David Reagan put out a "book review." Actually, many people considered it to be a personal attack on some brothers in Christ instead.

The Prophezine had a good summary of events on their website today that I wanted to share in the interest of being fair and balanced:


After David Reagan’s Jan / Feb issue of Lamplighter was published, we provided space for the authors to refute what David said. Joel Richardson as well as Walid Shoebat responded. Emails were sent to the other authors. If you missed thier responses, you can read them here.

READ NOW - Joel Richardson's Responce >>>
READ NOW - Walid Shoebat's Responce>>>

This past weekend, I heard from Phillip Goodman, author of “The Assyrian Connection” asking me if I would include his response to David Reagan. Like I have mentioned in the past, we at Prophezine try to be “neutral ground” where authors can come and present their views. We support the Watchmen on the Wall and promote many great ministries out there.

Rodrigo Silva who runs “The Beast from the East” website has also been involved with this discussion and the promotion of the “Eastern Leg” ideal. I have included his very well documented argument in support of the Eastern Leg of the Roman Empire in this special issue also.

All four of these men have gone above and beyond in showing factual, historical proof as well as very strong scriptural evidence in support of this ideal. They all have strongly and gracefully refuted Dr. Reagan’s allegations as well as what is appearing to be very poor research on Dr. Reagan's part.

Folks we can believe what we may, but when fact and historical documentation is presented, it is only right that we as watchmen on the wall honestly weigh this evidence. Not weigh it with some preconceived ideas, notions or teachings of man which in fact may be in error.

We must apply proper biblical hermeneutics, maintaining context and author intent. I fear that there are those out there that refuse to look at the evidence in a honest light, but instead based upon what they have been taught, use that as the filter instead the Word of God, the Historical fact and proper interpretation.

We must strive for the truth, continually putting the theories into the fire and burn away the incorrect findings. If we are not willing to truly examine the evidence, then all we become are just a bunch of “YES” men to teachers. The four authors have presented strong enough evidence that being a watchman on the wall, it is my duty to examine it.

I am reminded of the following…

2 Timothy 3:1-7 (KJV) This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

2 Timothy 3:13 (KJV) But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 (KJV) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

If we are not willing to examine evidence that is presented properly, we run the risk in falling into what Paul warned young Timothy about. The blood of innocent is upon the hands of the watchmen, we must be diligent in our duties and ensure that what we are warning about is correct.
Daniel tells us that God told him to seal up the book till the end times where many will run to and fro and knowledge shall be increased (Daniel 12:4). Folks, we are in fact living in the last days. I feel that God has been revealing the knowledge that was once sealed up.

The problem is, if we are not willing to justly and honestly examine evidence presented, then we will fall prey to the itching ears and deceitful teachers that Paul warned us about. Me, I take my job seriously and I work hard to search the scriptures daily to see if what is being said is true.
I challenge you to do the same.


Well stated. Perhaps I need to go back and take a closer look at a post that referenced Reagan's "review" in "Will The Antichrist Be A Muslim?"

I'm beginning to wonder if this Maitreya really is the Antichrist. At the very least, he's definitely laying the groundwork for the real Antichrist to rise to power one day. For all we know, if he's not the prophesied "Man of Sin" he may turn out to be the False Prophet instead.

The following headline appeared on January 22, 2009: Bright Star Heralds The Emergence Of Maitreya The World Teacher.

I completely missed it! Thanks to an Anonymous visitor who brought this to my attention yesterday in our Comments section I can know alert the rest of you to a serious development.

First, if you're not familiar with who Maitreya is or what the group of people who have been working tirelessly for the past 30 years to introduce him to the world at precisely the right time believe then I must strongly urge you to take the time to read this column from back in December about this individual, his people, and the serious prophetic implications of their efforts.



Remarkably, this latest Press Release even includes language that would give any Christian student of eschatology cause for concern given its overt references to how Maitreya's appearance will be likened to that of Jesus Christ!

I kid you not! Those promoting this Antichrist figure are becoming so bold that they claim that:

"In the very near future, people everywhere will have the opportunity to witness an extraordinary and significant sign, the like of which has been manifested only once before, at the birth of Jesus. Then, according to Christian teaching, a star appeared in the heavens and led three wise men from the East to the birthplace of Jesus. Soon, once again, a star-like luminary of brilliant power will be seen around the world. What does this mean? How is it possible? The answer lies in the fact that this mysterious event is a sign, and heralds the beginning of Maitreya's open mission. Soon after the sign appears in our skies, Maitreya will give His first media interview on American television."

It doesn't end there though. I visited Share International's website (this is the organization that has worked to pave the way for Maitreya these past 30 years or so; it's almost like his own personal Public Relations Firm) to see if they had anything else to say about all of this. Indeed they did.

This is from a Q&A section that accompanies this recent announcement:

Q: Much, perhaps too much, is expected of the new American President. Do you think the world is being too optimistic? Barak Obama is expected to solve the major current world crises: the economic crisis, the environment, unemployment, collapsing industries, growing homelessness, rising poverty, conflict in the Middle-East and terrorism. Surely such a task would take a superman to get to grips with?

A: Absolutely true. Luckily, we do have a superman who really can show us the way to solve these problems - - His name is Maitreya. The rest is up to us. We have to make the right decisions in the light of Maitreya’s ideas. Obama could be a decisive voice for a ‘new’ America - - co-operative and willing to listen to others - - in the world.

Friends, this is MAJOR NEWS because it's like I've said before, I find it VERY HARD TO BELIEVE that these guys would spend so much time, so much effort effort, and so much money over the past 30 years preparing for a non-event that would render everyone involved a complete laughingstock.

Getting people to take them seriously after a fabulous faux pas like that might be a little tough to pull off don't you think? I mean, their ENTIRE MOVEMENT depends on this "emergence" and "Day of Declaration" being a complete success does it not? Food for thought that we may be a lot closer to the fulfilment of end times prophecy than we think.

So, stay strong, stay in the Lord, and stay skeptical about Creme's Maitreya (whoever he turns out to be), and what is sure to be his well-received "solution" to our global economic problems (if not a solution to everything that plagues us today - - war, famine, disease, environment, economy, energy, etc.).

Sure enough, right on cue, his supporters come right out and tell us exactly what to expect:

"On that open, public occasion, still unannounced as Maitreya, the World Teacher will present His views on the economic and financial chaos which now grips the world. He will explain its origins and final outcome, and present, to some extent, His recipe for amelioration of the present heavy burden on the poor of the world. Thus He will prepare the way for a more detailed and specific announcement of His ideas."

God help us.

***UPDATE 1/31/09: The Luciferian Star : If you thought our look at Mercury was something, wait until you see what Mark Mallett's study of Venus turns up! Plus, he ties it all back to this story about Maitreya. He also notes that Albert Pike, who wrote "Morals and Dogma," the ritualistic book for the Freemasons, often referred to how the Mason’s and/or Illuminati brotherhood planned their "events" around the orbit of Venus! These are the organizations which are recognized as co-ordinating (as best as humanly possible) a New World Order. Is it coincidence, then, that as world leaders across the globe are calling for a New World Order in the midst of economic chaos, that Venus is getting extraordinarily brighter? Unbelievable!!! NOTE: I don't share the same belief in and/or emphasize the figure of Mary like he does in his writings.***

I feel I should clarify a few things especially after the theme of the last few entires, which in no uncertain terms comes right out to declare that an ancient conspiracy has existed since the beginning of time, promulgated by a select group of individuals in positions of influence and power who are all part of some network of so-called "secret societies" that work to establish a one-world government.

Let's remember that despite these facts, God is ultimately guiding and controlling events. These men and women think they are in control of what is happening, and some even think Satan (the god they openly worship through rituals and symbols here on Earth) is in control. No, God is in control. He is working out a purpose, and Satan is subject to Him and can only do what He allows him to do.

With that in mind, I came across a timely commentary from The Berean on this very subject. Perhaps this will help me to clarify my position.

Let's start by looking at Hebrews 11:3, which reads: "By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible."

We need to understand three words here. The first is "worlds," which is the Greek aion meaning "ages," "periods of time," or "dispensations." The author is not referring at all to the created world - - the Earth. He means periods of time.

The second word is "framed," which gives the impression of a person building something, but that is not the author's intent. The same word appears in Hebrews 10:5, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You have prepared." This translation points to a different connotation.

The third word is "word." Normally, a Bible student would probably immediately think of logos as being the Greek for "word," but such is not the case here. It is instead the Greek word rhema, which means "the revealed word."

A good paraphrase of verse 3, then, would be: "By faith we understand that the ages were prepared by the revealed word of God." This verse is telling us that there is an UNSEEN HAND somewhere that is guiding the course of the periods through which mankind has lived! In other words, God is working out a purpose! People with faith look to the purpose He is working out and what He has revealed, and they see His hand guiding the destiny of nations as well as individuals.

This is an interesting, encouraging, faith-building concept because God is never far from the thoughts of a faithful person. Such a person, because he has had the mystery of God revealed to him - - the purpose He is working out - - begins to see God in everything that is happening because God is his companion. He has a relationship with Him. Because of his fellowship with God, he tries to see everything through God's eyes, as it were.

When God calls, one of the miracles He works in us by His Spirit gives us insight into His movements in the history of man. The Christian begins to see God in his environment, the Earth - - and discovers that it is all under God's control.

We can see where God says, "I raise up kings. I put down kings." Sometimes these are "the basest of men," but because we are beginning to think like God, we understand why He does such things. In Romans 13:1-2, we find out that all governments are ordained of God. He at least permits them to govern, and sometimes He directly installs them.

God is guiding and controlling events. Men think they are in control of what is happening, and some even think Satan is in control. No, God is in control. He is working out a purpose, and Satan is subject to Him and can only do what He allows him to do.

The psalmist says that God is not in all of the ungodly man's thoughts (Psalm 10:4). Andre Matisse, a French philosopher and writer, once said, "The universe is indifferent. Who created it? Why are we here on this puny mud heap, spinning in an infinite space? I have not the slightest idea, and I am quite convinced that no one has the least idea."

This is the way man looks at things, but Christians had better not look at them like this because they will not operate by faith. If we are operating by faith, we can begin to see events and circumstances in their fuller scope, as well as how they fit and how important they are to the purpose God is working out.

That purpose is that all should come to know Him. We can only know Him by first recognizing our dire need for forgiveness for our sins, and then by acknowledging that the only way to gain that forgiveness is to place our faith in Jesus Christ, whose grace, mercy, and shed blood gives us the salvation we seek.

This is the meaning of life.

For those of you who remain skeptical about the "government conspiracy" meme here this week I would like to present you with the following two headlines I just came across that were published yesterday:

Congress Seeks To Authorize & Legalize FEMA Camp Facilities

H.R. 645: To Direct The Secretary Of Homeland Security To Establish National Emergency Centers On Military Installations (Check out the Bill that was introduced in Congress last week. This is a direct link to a government website that proves that the Bill referenced in the above article was actually introduced as claimed.)

So, in just two stories (by the way, did any of you see this as a "major" story presented on any of the major networks' broadcasts yesterday? me neither) we have the federal government finally admitting publicly that these FEMA camps do exist.

This is an incredibly disturbing piece of legislation considering that the-powers-that-be have already set in motion an agenda to setup a nationwide Martial Law apparatus through U.S. Northern Command and the Department of Homeland Security.

Apparently, the fusion centers, militarized police, surveillance cameras and a domestic military command is not enough. Even though we already know that detention facilities are already in place, they now want to legalize the construction of FEMA camps on military installations using the ever popular excuse that the facilities are for the purposes of a national emergency.

With the phony debt based economy getting worse and worse by the day, the possibility of civil unrest is becoming a greater threat to the establishment. One need only look at Iceland, Greece, and other European nations for what might happen in the United States next. With this in mind, it appears as if these so called national emergency centers will be used in a national emergency, but only if the national emergency requires large groups of people to be rounded up and detained.

If that isn’t the case, than why have these national emergency facilities built in military installations? One aspect of this legislation that's particularly disturbing is that it states that the facilities will be used to meet other appropriate needs as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security. This could mean anything! If the Secretary of Homeland Security thinks it's appropriate to kill large groups of people like the Nazis did in World War II Germany then it looks as if this Bill would give them the authority to use these facilities for that purpose.

Man, Steve Quayle is on fire these days! Better yet, the guy is a living encyclopedia of historical and biblical knowledge and I absolutely love listening to him speak especially when he gets rolling.

Here he revisits the subject of the Nephilim/Giants from the Old Testament and their relevance to what is prophesied to return to this planet in the very near future.

This time he's talking with Bill Deagle of The Bill Deagle Show during a broadcast from just last week on January 21, 2009.

Please pay very close attention to what he says beginning at the 4:20 mark of Part 1 of this 11-part series because I sincerely think he may be on to something here. It's not the focus of the rest of the conversation, but what he hints at does make you wonder if there's something much more sinister than we ever imagined going on right now.

I won't go into all the details just yet, but suffice it to say that he connects the prophesied return of these Nephilim/Giants (progeny of the Fallen Angels and "daughters of men") to the genetic terrorism being conducted on unsuspecting citizens of the world courtesy of Monsanto.

For those who might not be too familiar with Monsanto, they are the corporate giant that the devil is using to alter our genetic makup by introducing "Frankenfoods" into the food chain. These are foods that the FDA has just ruled DO NOT need any special labeling to alert consumers!

I'll leave you with something the host of this show said in Part 3 just before a commercial break, "If you don't face reality you're going to be a victim of it..." He also said that "the nature of the universe is far more bizarre than most people want to believe!" I agree wholeheartedly with both statements!

I think that accurately captures the spirit of most of the things I've tried to report on here in recent months.

Sure, these aren't the types of things you'll hear on Sundays in the pews of your local church, and I'm willing to bet that for many people this may be the first time such a "crazy" concept has put out there for serious debate. I mean, I call myself a Christian and I believe these sorts of things? That's odd, right?

Wrong! Believe me, I had similar reactions when I was first confronted with such things. I can't quite explain it, but you just know when you know, you know? That is to say that I won't just write something for the sake of posting it. I'm in the business of alerting people to the truth about biblical prophecy before it's too late, not entertaining them.

I'm writing with two different kinds of people in mind. First, those who are new to prophecy and have many questions about what's going on in the world today and how it relates to what prophecy tells us. Second, those Christians who are like I was - - students of prophecy, but kept in the dark about some things that should be of grave concern to all of us in these last days.

I hope I have been responsible in that sense. I hope that you will prayerfully consider what is written here.

I'll never forget the first time I stumbled upon Steve Quayle's website about 7 years ago. It was just after 9/11, and in my search for answers about what was going on in the world around me my search somehow brought me there.

Looking back, I know that it was an act of God because this man's devotion to Jesus Christ along with his unwavering faith in the face of constant ridicule was a model of inspiration to me at precisely the time I needed to see that. I was just beginning my own relationship with the Lord and was subjected to attacks and ridicule myself from both family and friends.

Plus, it was during this same time that he was a regular featured guest on WBEN 930 AM's The Tom Bauerle Show. In a strange twist of fate, WBEN was the local talk radio station I worked for, and it was my first full-time job. So, naturally, I listened every time he was on because I needed to know the product I was selling inside and out.

Over the years, I've come to rely on Steve to provide me with the news and information that I wouldn't normally find anywhere else. I often laughed at how often I would tell a family member or friend about something I read on his website (or heard on his radio show), they would roll their eyes, shake their head, shrug their shoulders, and tell me I'm nuts only to recant a few days or weeks later when the same information finally came out in the mainstream news.

The irony is that lately I've been trying to warn people - - other Christians - - about the realities the Bible tells us we will soon face, and yet they don't want to hear it, they think I'm full of crap, and in the process are ignoring a part of the Bible they're uncomfortable with while standing behind all the parts they're ok with. How does that work? That's not right. Jesus Christ Himself even said that it will be a time like as in the days of Noah (Matthew 24:37-38). A few weeks ago, we even looked at what times were like in those days he spoke of to try and get a better idea of what we should expect. I think it's safe to say that none of us liked what we found.

Does anyone else feel like the dam is about to break? With all the things going on around the world today that have serious prophetic implications (India-Pakistan relations; Israel-Hamas fighting; Iran's nuclear ambitions; Somali pirates; Russia-Europe oil dispute; Obama's presidency; financial crisis; calls for a one-world government; etc.) is it any wonder that Mr. Quayle has been talking to anyone who will listen about the prophesied return of the Nephilim (giants who were the offspring of the Fallen Angels who mated with human women)? Does it not make sense that all of these things will happen at almost the same time (or, at the very least, one after the other)?

I mean, after all, Jesus said that the times directly preceding His return would be like labor pains. What do we know about labor pains? They increase not only in frequency, but in intensity the closer you get to the actual birth. In other words, it will be a time like no other on the face of this planet! Events will happen at such a quickening pace and at lighting speed - - overwhelmingly chaotic and stressful events - - that will shake us to our very core! They will get worse and worse and worse until God's plans (these forms of His judgement) have been fulfilled to the letter.

We also know that "men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken" (Luke 21:26) is a given, and that "unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved" (Matthew 24:22). So, what might cause this very scenario to unfold besides what we typically assume will be nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare? Surely, those things are frightening, but are they really the "the powers of heaven" that "will be shaken" as well as those things that would cause "men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world" because we've always lived with those threat, and it's hardly anything new.

If you're like me then you've questioned that concept also. I think the more likely scenario is what Steve Quayle and others like him are trying to warn us about, and at this point (in this urgent and desperate times) I personally don't care who thinks I'm "crazy" for believing it.

Regardless of what you think of Steve Quayle (or even me for that matter), I humbly ask you to please indulge me, and listen to these 10-minute audio clips from an interview that Steve Quayle recently gave to Coast to Coast AM's George Noory in early December.

What do you think about all of this? Do you think there's any truth to what Steve Quayle is saying? Do you even believe that the Nephilim are scheduled to return to our world in these end times before Jesus Christ returns? Do you think I'm a complete "nut-job" for seriously looking at this here? Did you even listen to the above sound bytes and make it this far through this post? LOL

For whatever reason, with each passing day I've been feeling my cares with this world (my daily burdens having to do with my family, career, finances, etc.) becoming lighter and lighter when logic tells me I should be more concerned about them even as a Christian. This overwhelming sense of peace seems to be accompanied by a general feeling of "Hey, don't worry so much about this because soon it really won't matter at all since there will be more important things to worry about!"

Now, where in the world is that coming from!?! I can only conclude that it's the Holy Spirit speaking to me. I look at the world around me and after studying prophecy for many years it just feels as if things have accelerated within the blink of an eye over these past few months that I've told people that I would be completely shocked if my generation came and went without seeing Jesus' Second Coming. I'll be 30 in mid-June.

What about you? Have you had similar feelings? What do you think about all of this? If you're still not sure I encourage you to grab your Bible and read Genesis 6.
