I thought it might be good to hit the Reset Button and make sure we're all focused on what's most important...
With expectant hearts and watchful eyes, let's keep looking up while resting on the knowledge that His Second Coming is near.
Actually, it's closer than ever before and the signs of the times certainly support such an assessment of our present day and where we believe we are along God's prophetic timeline.

"The center of Christianity is the coming of the Son of God into the world as a real man to destroy the works of the devil and create a new people for His own glory. The very heart of our faith is that He did this by obeying the law of God, dying for the sins of His people, rising victorious over death, ascending to God's right hand with all His enemies under his feet. The second coming of Christ is the completion of His saving work. If you take it away, the whole fabric of His saving work unravels."
-- John Piper / Our Hope: The Appearing Of Jesus Christ
May 18, 1986, www.DesiringGod.org, Used By Permission.
"Biblical prophecy provides some of the greatest encouragement and hope available to us today. Just as the Old Testament is saturated with prophecies concerning Christ’s first advent, so both testaments are filled with references to the second coming of Christ. One scholar has estimated that there are 1,845 references to Christ’s second coming in the Old Testament, where 17 books give it prominence. In the 260 chapters of the New Testament, there are 318 references to the second advent of Christ -- an amazing 1 out of every 30 verses. Twenty-three of the 27 New Testament books refer to this great event. For every prophecy in the Bible concerning Christ’s first advent, there are 8 which look forward to His second!"
-- Author Unknown / Today In The Word, April, 1989, p. 27
"More than a fourth of the Bible is predictive prophecy. Approximately one-third of it has yet to be fulfilled. Both the Old and New Testaments are full of promises about the return of Jesus Christ. Over 1,800 references appear in the Old Testament, and seventeen Old Testament books give prominence to this theme. Of the 260 chapters in the New Testament, there are more than 300 references to the Lord’s return -- one out of every thirty verses. Twenty-three of the twenty-seven New Testament books refer to this great event. Three of the four other books are single-chapter letters written to individuals concerning a particular subject, and the fourth is Galatians, which does imply Christ’s coming again. For every prophecy on the first coming of Christ, there are eight on Christ’s second coming."
-- George Sweeting / Who Said That? Moody Press, 1995, p. 391.
"In His coming the 'last days' to which the Old Testament looked forward arrived, but they have not yet run their course; the Christian church is still living in this eschaton. Jesus' first coming inaugurated it; His second coming will consummate it. The coming of Jesus was, therefore, the beginning of the end."
-- R.T. France / Jesus And The Old Testament, Regent, 1998, p. 162
"The apostolic church thought more about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ than about death and heaven. The early Christians were looking, not for a cleft in the ground called a grave but for a cleavage in the sky called Glory."
-- Alexander MacLaren

Amen, brother.
i d want to believe He could appear any day now; yet i sense that things could get very dark still, before that day
..there is something with that Ram from Daniel.. The Ram has 2 horns; and a head = 2 deities and a major one ruling both.
the horns are 'false opposites', like 'moonreligion vs sunreligion', or 'good and evil' (as in 'tree of good and evil', so, not Gods Ultimate Good),'good guys vs bad guys', etc
..interesting, Cyrus, who started the PersianEmpire, means 'sun'.(btw i think there s a deep relation between 'the split of oldIsrael in 2 main bodies', and the rise of the Ram)
After 0 AD, sata* moved the sunreligion westward, becoming 'catholic' (the King of the North) ; and when the persian empire collapsed, 600AD, it left a vacuum for the moonreligion (islam) to rise.
- but bóth are horns from the same Ram; the Ram creating false opposites/enemies/concepts,
yet its him ruling both sides.
the russian (orthodox) double eagle depicts the 2 horns
http://images.vector-images.com/102/russia1844_eagle_n197.gif
..but also the masonic (edom) eagle is double - implying that its edom who creates both sides
Rams horns represent also
http://www.bu.edu/cism/CISM_Thrusts/magnetosphere.jpg
..and what Ram has created, the past 60 years, is a Matrix around earth- to try obstruct the 144k being reached. The matrix closes off Heaven, and thereby man's heart- while our Lords reality should be 'inside out', instead: to have His Heart rule

(compass/square,VW car, or google chrome logos, anyone?)
You see that the realitymatrix is the Rams; again he being in the middle, ruling, and creating both sides (also male/female!), as in a mirror.
inside vieuw of our present reality matrix -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9COu6wK8bCc&feature=related
the torus recorded every memory and action of mankind, and guilt, and re-projects to man infinite possibilities of reality: but when the matrix will be closed, any day now, it will create 'automatic man', ruled by It, using the energies of Creation: but without Him.
This is 'the image of the beast'
therefore, it will be darkness on Earth once the matrix is closed, and only His', who died to Self can escape - because they are free from Its tricks and delusions, and Its matrix wont have (legal) power no more, to imprison them
.. i was struggling to phrase, i hope it was comprehensable

The ram with one horn longer than the other represents Media-Persian empire. Persia being the longer horn as it had a stronger influence.
Lone, I believe you are right. Things are about to get very dark and ugly, especially for us Christians. It could be that Lulu, a.k.a. Lucifer, is trying to make and end-run around our God's prophecy making ability, trying to make the end happen before God says it is. He will fail, of course, but it will get very dark.
It seems, Lone, that what you are talking about will not be a true metallic shield surrounding the earth, but perhaps satellites with hologram broadcast capabilities, and when the Rapture happens, then the time of darkness begins. Holograms, perhaps being able to 'speak', will be broadcast all over the planet, showing the 'savior' of mankind, who will in reality be Antichrist.
yes chris thanks; so is the common explanation. But the Ram
(the prince of Persia) is clearly 'alive', still - hence he is mentioned in Daniels last vision, right before our Change; and his originalHQ is elam.
thanks mrBig
- i was referring to a dimensional matrix, created by It by using 'sacred geometry'. Energy
(aether) 'freezes' into Matter by different forms of geometry; and, probably, higher dimensions have more complex geometry.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7MR6DH3NAc&feature=related
sata* was ruling Earth from
'outside'; by creating an as above so below; by imprinting it into the stars (he occupied after Adam fell). Our Lord took that legal right away from It.
- but now, Its making a fortress of Earth,itself; because It knows, He will come soon to claim what He conquered.
..It has constructed many new and ancient sites which change aether into usable (life-force) energy
as in the 'times of Noah'. And the Ram will distract us with 1000 (fake)events, to get the matrix locked before we realized. These
(cosmic) life-force energies will control the 'Adam Kadmon', new-man,
the mocking of His Image.
As bate, these energies attrack many new-agers, but to us, its Darkness - because He is not in them, when they are seperated from Him, only to 'misuse them for own will', like It does.

thank You Jeff, forgive me for the long posts. Love you all much.
