IS THIS AMERICA’S FINAL YEAR?

IS THIS AMERICA’S FINAL YEAR?
 
 
Now that 2012 is finally here and the rhetoric of the “doomsdayers” has softened somewhat, are we out of the woods, so to speak?  Have the threats of world population reduction by some 90% diminished or is it merely that those warning of those calamities have been silenced?  Have the chem trails gone from our skies and the FDA approved poisons been removed from our foodstuffs?  Has the threat of nuclear war diminished if, as and when we, or Israel, make a hit on Iran?  Have we cut back on the inoculations for children that have driven the incidence of autism from one in 10,000 to one in 100?  Have we ceased to wage “weather warfare” and taken steps to dismantle HAARP?  Has our economy really stabilized or is that mere hype to carry us until after election?  In short, is 2012 still the target date for the destruction of America and the establishment of the New World Order? 

Realizing full well the state of denial Americans are presently in, (and have been for the past century if not more), I know that anything I say here to the contrary of what politicians are peddling through the media will be little noted nor long remembered by the vast majority here in America. 

In each and every society, there are those who are considered wise and it would seem to be that these are seldom the rulers.  We have fought two world wars based on the folly of rulers put into their positions of power by Satan the devil (see Luke 4) and are now preparing feverishly for WWIII.

But for those with eyes to see and a mind still uncluttered enough to comprehend, perhaps we should list and examine the evidence which would tend to lead one to believe that this is America’s final year.

Evidence:

Point #1.  The book of Daniel has been opened.
            2.  The entire world is on the verge of financial collapse.
            3.  The Mayan Calendar ends this year.
            4.  We have a celestial visitor incoming.
            5.  Malachi Martin’s prophecy is in final stage.
            6.  Russia and China have sided with Iran.
            7.  Military notified in July 2012 of major event

Now let’s examine each of these pieces of evidence to see how credible they are. 

1.  The book of Daniel has been opened.  Is this fact or is this the notion of someone hooked on religion?  Let’s see.  First let’s verify that the book of Daniel was sealed at the time of it’s writing.  If we go to chapter 12 (the final chapter of this “Little book”) and look at verse 4, we see: “But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book even to the time of the end:”

We see this repeated in verse 9 of the same chapter.  “And he said, ‘Go your way Daniel:  for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.”

Now to those who think the Bible is a collection of Jewish fairy tales, this means nothing at all, however, if those same folks will take it upon themselves to prove or disprove this book, they are in for surprises.  With the visions and messages given to Daniel, he was able to lay out the four world ruling empires that were to dominate this earth for the next 2600 years plus.  Anyone objectively searching for truth will find in chapters 2 and 7 of Daniel, the outline of history before it became history.  Checking that then against history as it then unfolded reveals that the accuracy is awesome. 

Now in chapter 11 of this “little book”, we find a synopsis of history (again before it became history) dating from about 539 BC to the present, laid out in chronological order and showing the battles between the king (or kingdom) of the south and the king (or kingdom) of the north.  These were the divisions of this earth that happened in the closing of the reign of the third empire (Alexander’s Greece --- see Daniel 8) and were to continue until the kingdoms of this world are given to the saints of the Most High (Daniel 7:22).  Many try to discredit the book of Daniel but the unsettling part of this book is that it is still unfolding today.  If you go to verses 42 and 43 of chapter 11, you can see the American intervention in Egypt and Libya in the past several months.  Is this merely the imagination of some would be prophet?  You owe it to yourself to look into it and decide for yourself. 

However, since the chapter is laid out chronologically and since we are talking about verses 42-43 of a total of 45 verses, and since it covers a period of some two and a half millennia, it would seem that we are very near to the end of that era.  It appears that verse 44 introduces WWIII and the destruction of America.  Verse 45 covers the demise of the king of the north and it would seem the destruction of America.  Chapter 12 begins with the introduction of the “Time of Jacob’s Trouble” which some call the great tribulation culminating in the invasion from outer space and a new government for planet earth.

2.  The entire world is on the verge of financial collapse because the world has been geared to U.S. dollars and the U.S. is the military arm of the Roman Empire today.  If you do not understand this, consider reading “The Image of the Beast” by this author.  We are that image mentioned in Revelation 13 and the deeper you look into it the more obvious it becomes.

We don’t have to depend on Bible prophecy to tell us the economies of the world are on the skids --- we only need to look past CNN news which is the government propaganda channel. The riots in Greece are about the economy.  Spain is entering the same scenario and it will soon be the streets of America.  The Keynesian policy of “Spend yourself rich” isn’t working.  Virtually all the governments of the world have keyed on American prosperity and copied this policy of self destruction to their own detriment.  Now America also is about to pay the piper. 

3.  The Mayan Calendar ends this year and while there are many saying things such as, “The Mayas couldn’t save their own empire so why should we believe they could predict future events?”  Perhaps we should take more than a superficial look at the Mayan Calendar.  And rulers define the fate of an empire --- as stated earlier, rulers are seldom the wise of any society. 

But whether or not the end of the Mayan is of any significance to current events really is immaterial.  There are many people looking at this as a significant event and for a variety of reasons.  Whether they are pagan and expecting the end of the world or whether they are astronomers and looking at the correlation between the end of the Mayan Calendar and the timing of an incoming celestial visitor, or the crossing of the Milky Way ecliptic on that date --- a lot of people are expecting some major events before this year ends.  This opportunity, of having the attention of the whole world, will not present itself again in the lifetime of today’s politicians.

4.  We have another event this year (or beginning this year) that will not be repeated in the lifetime of politicians alive today. This is the incoming celestial visitor that astrophysicists have anticipated for decades.  The man who plotted it’s course with some 300,000 calculations and told NASA where to look for it in the heavens was Astrophysicist Robert Harrington.  Since that time, in the 80s, Mr Harrington has disappeared and no one seems to know what became of him. 

Is it co-incidental that this event is to be bringing cataclysmic events to our planet in the same year the Mayan Calendar ends?  I’m sure the nay-sayers could ask, “Where are the cataclysmic events?”  There is considerable evidence pointing to the 2004 Indonesian earthquake as one of them.  Have we looked at the upsurge in seismic and volcanic activity?  Is this just better reporting or is our reluctance to consider it simply more of the “American denial syndrome”? 

When we begin to look seriously at history, we find that we have been the victims of many hoaxes such as “Columbus discovered America” and “The Roman Empire fell in 476 AD”.  These are some of the more obvious ones but there are others more subtle.  Is the Bible really the God breathed “Word of Truth” or has it been tampered with by Jews and Christians (Catholics) alike?  If we turn to the book of Jeremiah, chapter 8, verse 8, it begins to appear that the Jews were tampering with scripture some 2600 years ago.  I recommend reading this in different translations to get the full impact of what is being said. 

Knowledge is power and it would seem that men have been withholding knowledge for as long as there have been men on earth.  Has there been space travel in the past history of earth?  It is unsettling to religionists to be faced with the findings of authors such as Erich Von Daniken or Zecharia Sitchin.  They make very strong cases for space vehicles in earth’s far distant past.  Now, does this, if proven conclusively, prove that there is no God?  Of course not!  However, we very well might be faced with the possibility that we would have to revise our concept of that God.  We might even be faced with having to reconsider our concept of the return of the one we know of as the Messiah. 

5.  London and Vatican newspapers have carried a story in the past few years of a Catholic prophet of the twelfth century named (or renamed by the Vatican) Malachi.  He was a priest from Ireland but made a pilgrimage to the Vatican in the twelfth century and while there had a vision which he revealed to the Pope.  He said that in his vision, there were to be 112 more Popes and he gave a brief account of the disposition of each.  Many of these profiles have been uncannily accurate.  At the time of the 112th, he said the Catholic Church would cease to exist.  The situation that makes this prophecy of extreme interest today is that number 111 is now seated. 

Those who manage world news will not admit that we are in a religious war today and yet, when you dig behind all the propaganda that surrounds war and preparations for war, it would seem that all wars ever fought are religious wars.  Now, of course, Americans will wave the flag and loudly proclaim that we fight wars to make the world safe for democracy.  What a farce!  Obviously these folks have never read Revelation 12:9 which proclaims that the whole world is deceived.  Probably the biggest deception ever foisted off on the whole world at the time was the creation of America as the “Image of the Beast” (see Revelation 13) by the Vatican.  You see the inquisition was war also against non Catholics.  That war had to be deferred when their navy (the Spanish Armada) was virtually destroyed when they sailed against England which was an act of war.  The creation of the Image of the Beast was in order to rebuild a navy powerful enough to wrest control of the seas from England.  Has it worked?  If this sounds preposterous to you, try to get a copy of “Rulers of Evil” by F Tupper Saussy, which gives the details of this “Vatican Project”.    Also, “The Image of the Beast” by this author nails this down pretty conclusively.

There are 3 religious sects vying for world dominion and two of them make no bones about it.  These are the Catholics and Muslim.  The Catholics have been quietly building their military arm for many years since their setback in 1588 but their goal has not changed.  The Muslim now openly proclaim that those who won’t convert to Islam must be killed.  The uprisings in the mideast are about the Muslim throwing off the yoke of the Vatican controlled America and beginning to flex their muscles. 

The third sect is considerably smaller in numbers but certainly not in fire power.  This is the Jews.  New York trained Jews took over the Russian Government in WWI and murdered some 25-30,000,000 “Christians”.  This is never mentioned as they talk about the 6,000,000 Jews presumably killed in the holocaust. 

Something else not talked about, and evidently not yet known by the Muslim, is that the Jews and Catholics are a confederacy!  Many Jews and Catholics themselves are not aware of this and yet if you do your homework on the 13th chapter of Revelation, you will find that the first beast mentioned in that chapter is the same as the 4th beast of Daniel 7 (the Roman Empire) and that the second beast mentioned (with two horns) is the Vatican.  In verse 13, you will see that “…all the power of the first beast…” is bequeathed to the second beast.  This power was evidently delegated to the Vatican for the purpose of administering the inquisition.  The Roman Empire then went underground but continued to pull the strings of world affairs from the shadows.  The myth about the Roman Empire falling in 476 AD was concocted by Edward Gibbon and published in 1776 in order to conceal the fact that America was a creation of the Vatican.  In order to dispel this myth, you need only go to an encyclopedia and look up “Byzantine Empire”.  It leaves no doubts as to whether or not the Empire fell in 476 AD.  Is it significant that the book was written 1300 years after the alleged “fall”?

You can find the Jewish/Catholic connection in the book of I Maccabees, chapter 8.  It tells of a Jewish delegation sent to the Roman Empire to “…conclude a treaty of friendship”, between the Jews and the Romans.  The Romans found the proposal acceptable and their reply stated specifically that they considered the treaty to be “forever”.  Had the Roman Empire fallen in 476 AD as the Vatican created myth postulates, then the treaty would have fallen with it --- however, the Roman Empire did not fall.  Rome itself did fall to the Israelite invaders (called barbarians in Roman history) but Rome was not the Roman Empire nor was it the capitol at the time.  The capitol had been moved to Byzantium more than a hundred years previously by Constantine.  So when “…all the power” of the beast (Revelation 13) was delegated to the two horned beast (the Vatican), they inherited the administration of that treaty and “forever” has not ended yet.  The Jews and Catholics are a confederacy.  As the Image of the Beast, America is also a party to this covenant.  Does this help to explain our affinity to Israel?

6.  Russia and China have sided with Iran.  These two superpowers have made it plain that interference in Iran will not be a “spectator sport” like Egypt and Libya.  Perhaps they have discovered how much loot was taken out of Egypt and how much of Libya’s is still being pursued by the CIA. If it is located in Ethiopia, and retrieved, that will complete the stage set in Daniel 11:43 and open the door wide for verses 44-45.  This will touch off the destruction of the “…daughter of Babylon”, as detailed in Jeremiah, chapters 50 and 51 and the end of the king of the north.  It may very well be that the verse 42-43 prophecy is already completed if Ethiopia is voluntarily “…in the train”, of the king of the north.

7.  Military notified of major event coming soon.  This notification to military personnel and their dependents came in July of this year (2012) after they signed a non-disclosure statement promising not to share this information with their fellow Americans.  They were told that a celestial visitor is incoming that is going to cause major modification of earth’s topography.  It seems they didn’t mention that it will be assisted with a few nukes but if they have been able to draw up maps of the U.S. after, this modification, showing an inland sea from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, were they able to determine this from calculations on the size, path and nearness of the incoming body?   Or do they have plans of their own and are they using these situations mentioned above to mask those plans?  Seems the beginning of the underground cities dates back past the time they were notified by Robert Harrington of the incoming celestial visitor.   The military personnel located in coastal areas of the U.S. were told to be prepared to move inland on short (two weeks) notice and that they could take no more personal goods than what would be allowed on a commercial flight.

Retired military officers evaluating this situation are saying this kind of notice would not be given a year before the expected event and probably no more than six months at the most.  If their evaluation is correct, that would put this coming event in the December 2012-January 2013 time frame.   Is it co-incidental that this is also the time frame for the end of the Mayan Calendar? 

Now, given these seven conditions and/or windows of opportunity, and given the length of time this has been in the planning stage, and given the character of rulers, I leave it to the reader to ponder as to whether or not the New World Order pushers will let this opportunity slide by.  The stakes in this poker game are for world dominion and the factions involved will stop at nothing.  This was demonstrated in the Japanese tsunami.

Even a cursory study into those with “The Great” after their names in history should suffice to reveal that “Greatness” in this world is measured by how many people you have killed. 

It appears to me that this impending event will be the opening of the 4th seal of Revelation 6.  What this means in terms of people dying is that one and one half billion people will die.  Americans will only comprise some 13% of that total.  Hosea 5:7 leads one to believe that it will only take one month for America to be destroyed and survivors evacuated.  Jeremiah 50 and 51 indicate that it will be left “…without an inhabitant”.   Leviticus 26:34 says, “Then shall the land enjoy her Sabbaths, as long as it lies desolate and you be in your enemies’ land; even then shall the land rest and enjoy her Sabbaths.”

There are waymarks that should tip us off weeks in advance of this world shaking event.  For instance, Ethiopia has not yet come into the news to complete the fulfillment of Daniel 11:43, or has it?  Do we know what Hillary’s recent visit there was about? 

Something else that will happen roughly a month before the hammer falls is that the “Abomination of Desolation” will be set in place in Jerusalem. This event is accompanied by the cutting off of the sacrifices that evidently will be resumed by the Jews.  Obviously those sacrifices must be begun before they can be cut off.  And again, how quickly can these events happen?  If you believe the Jews must have the temple rebuilt before beginning sacrifices, I suggest you read the book of Ezra. 

Jeremiah 51:8 says, “Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed…”  Isaiah describes it as falling like a wall built with untempered mortar.  So we know that when it begins, it will be over quickly.  Revelation 18 says, “…in one hour”. 

Indeed, it would seem that we, as Americans, have overlooked something, and, as it says in Hosea 4:6, “…are being destroyed for lack of knowledge.”

May our Creator go with you in your search for truth.

FIRSTFRUITS

FIRSTFRUITS
 
Something that has been on my mind for some time, and perhaps I have it sorted enough to share with others, is the place of firstfruits in the plan of salvation.  We know, of course, that the law was given and established in an agrarian society.  In this setting, there were two harvests --- the spring harvest of the “firstfruits” and the bigger fall harvest when the crops were brought in before the beginning of winter.  It is this crop cycle that the plan of salvation is based on. 
 
We see a wave offering in Leviticus 7 that it says is a “statute forever” among the children of Israel.  Just what is this wave offering and what does it tell us today?  Who are the firstfruits and where do they fit in?   
 
Most of you know that I attended WCG for 30 some years and sat through the “Why are you here?” sermons each Feast of Tabernacles.  It didn’t occur to me to question them at the time, but after seeing the WCG takeover by the mafia and splintered into some 2-300 groups, I had to ask myself some serious questions.  Is, or was, WCG really the work of God in the end time?  Was HWA really the “Elijah” that was to come?   Was he a prophet?  Please don’t misunderstand.  I am not here to cast HWA in a negative light nor am I here to cast aspersions on his character and/or intentions.  But I do call a spade a spade and I try to incorporate truth into my life wherever I find it.  I feel that HWA uncovered more truth buried by the Vatican than any man since Martin Luther.  And I feel that the followers of HWA were much like the followers of Martin Luther in that they put a frame around what he espoused and said, in effect, “This is total truth --- we shall not add to nor take away from.”  I submit to you that this is idolatry!  This is following a man!  Did HWA make mistakes?  Yes he did.  Was some of his doctrine in error?  Yes it was!  We need not list those here --- let the reader do his/her own research.
 
The point I want to address in this communiqué is the place of the firstfruits in the plan of salvation.  Please don’t be dismayed if I address it from a different perspective than what you have ever seen before.  Because I want to start in the book of Revelation, chapter 5, verse 8.  The context shows that this is the time when the book is being opened that “…looses the 7 seals…” of Revelation 6.  Verse 8 shows 24 elders before the throne of God that “… fall down before the Lamb.”  Who are these 24 elders?  It would appear that they are before the throne at this time and perhaps have been for many years if not centuries.   The churches of God have been conspicuously silent about who these are.  We can see in verse 9 that at one time they were human!  How do you reconcile this with what you have been led to believe? 
 
I know that some of the splinter groups say, “Perhaps they are angels”.  Did Christ die to redeem angels?  See again verse 9.  When we begin to crank this whole picture into our mental process and meditate on it, we can only come up with the conclusion that HWA was wrong about a number of things and the firstfruits was only one of them.  You see, HWA did not understand that the first resurrection is comprised of only 144,000 even though this is plainly stated in Revelation 14:1-4.  At least one of the WCG splinter groups has picked up on this and come to the conclusion that only 144,000 out of all generations that have lived will come up in the first resurrection (OK so far) and those of churches of God that do not make it in that draft are lost forever.  Can this be so?  To me this demonstrates a gross ignorance of the firstfruits and the plan of salvation. 
 
There were more than 144,000 that died martyrs in the inquisition because of their faith.  Was their faith perfect at that time?  No!  Of course not.  The truth had been buried for years by the fourth beast of Daniel 7 and even those who led the falling away from the Catholic church (John Wesley, Martin Luther, William Tyndale, etc) were still Catholic in their thinking.  So those martyred were acting on the best information they had at the time but their faith was far from perfect.  However, they stepped out in faith and that is the important part. 
 
Can we really accept the concept that there has been a “preresurrection”? (What about Lazarus?  And didn’t Elijah raise up the widow’s son?) We know that it says in I Thessalonians 4:15, that, “…we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the LORD shall not prevent (precede) them which are asleep.”  So we know that those living are not going to be resurrected before those that are dead.  However, perhaps we should take a look at what it does not say.  It does not say none of the dead shall precede the living!  Think about it!  Dare to think outside the box that our religious gurus have limited us to!  We, perhaps, need to view them as God does and you can get this perspective in Isaiah 56:10-11.  Could it be that these 24 elders are the wave sheaf offering?  After all, the wave sheaf offering does come before the firstfruits.  And if this sounds “wild” (because it is different than what you and I have been led to believe), then I would challenge you to read Leviticus 23:11 because it shows that the wave sheaf is not only to be offered --- but accepted --- before the harvest of the firstfruits can begin!  Does this cast our understanding of the firstfruits in an entirely different light?
 
One of the errors of WCG and other religions is in not understanding the plan of salvation.  HWA felt the second coming of Christ would be on a holy day and probably the Day of Trumpets.  Does this fit into the overall plan of salvation?  Christ said in Revelation 3:14 that He was the beginning of creation and this He was.  But more than that, He was also the beginning of the plan of salvation and this plan begins with the Passover and progresses through the other holy days or statutes as they were called in Leviticus 23.  We can see in the first two verses of that chapter that these were not Jewish holy days but “God’s Feast Days”.  Continuing in the chapter we find that they are statutes forever! 
 
Now, if Christ (Yahshua) was the beginning of creation and the beginning of the plan of salvation, by laying His life on the line on the very day of the killing of the Paschal Lambs, (thus becoming the Lamb of God), then where does that leave us today in that plan?  What is the next step in that plan?  Why it’s the coming out of Egypt (sin) and unleavening our lives.  And that is where we find ourselves today.  Some have crossed the Red Sea and find ourselves wandering in this wilderness of Satan’s governments (see Luke 4).
 
So what is the next step in the plan?  It’s the harvest of the firstfruits or Pentecost (the Feast of Firstfruits).  Since Christ fulfilled His role of Passover Lamb by dying on the eve of Passover, does that give us a clue as to the date of the next step in that plan?  Rev 14:1-4.    Matthew 24:44 says, “…in such an hour as you think not the Son of man comes.”  Is this written to Catholics?  Protestants?  Pagans?  No, of course not.  The only scriptures the religious folks read is those laid out for them by their religious instruct-ors.  So if this is written to God’s people, why is it His coming will be “…at an hour when you think not”?  Could it be because they have been brainwashed to believe another date of His coming like the Day of Trump-ets?  I Thessalonians 5:1-4 makes it quite plain that there will be an inner circle that is fully aware of the day of his second coming.  Why will the vast majority miss it?  Perhaps we can find the answer in Romans 11:7. 
 
So just who are the 24 elders and who are the firstfruits?  The 24 elders, in my opinion, are the advance planning committee for the restoration of planet earth.  Men like Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Elijah. Will there be apostles also in this group?  Perhaps we should look at Ephesians 2:20 which says, speaking of the household of God or temple of God, “And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets…”   
 
Have we ever considered how much work is done in preparation for constructing a large building before any activity is observed on the site?  First there must be an idea for this edifice.  Next comes an artist’s sketch.  After this has been considered by those involved, then an architect is employed to reduce this idea and picture to a plan incorporated into drawings so that all can work from the “same sheet of music” as it were.  And yet, the site shows no signs of a building going up.  The plans will be reviewed by engineers and materials consultants, then their comments and recommendations will all be put together into a final plan.  Now the foundation can be prepared.  It has to be rock solid because it must support the weight of the entire building and its contents.  It has been said that the foundation is the most important part of any building.  I really think we need to flex our mental muscles and consider the possibility of a “preresurrection” for the purpose of laying the foundation of the temple our Creator is building.
 
 Now with the preplanning session done and the foundation laid, next comes the firstfruits and who might they be?  It doesn’t make sense to bring up those that will require a generation of instructional seminars to show them that there really is no santa or easter bunny.   Are the firstfruits to be the pillars of the new government on planet earth?  If so, it  means they must be people capable of seeing beyond the chimeras presented by Satan’s governments and the sugar plums they dangle before their recruits.  They must be people capable of independent thinking and, even more importantly, acting upon their conclusions --- even to laying their life on the line.
 
So if the second coming is at Pentecost, then what does the Day of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) represent in the plan of God?  If we look in Revelation 20 and Ezekiel 38, we can see that after 1000 years, Satan is released again and goes forth to recruit those who long to go back to the “good ol’ days” of political chicanery and financial deception.  At that time he musters the armies of Gog and Magog against Israel who is at that time living in peace. (See Rev 20).
 
Is it possible that the ten days of awe (10 days between Trumpets and Atone-ment) represent ten years at the end of the millennium, of blasting out the news that Satan is about to be released and warning people against following him into perdition?  Satan and his armies will be destroyed at that time and then comes the time of judgment (Yom Kippur) or the Day of Atonement.  Next comes the fall harvest which is represented by the Feast of Taber-nacles.  So you see, HWA was jumping ahead in the plan and felt that the millennium is what was represented by the Feast of Tabernacles.  This is error.  The millennium begins at the resurrection of the firstfruits.  Rev 14:1-4.  The trumpet is sounded at the end of the millennium to warn of Satan’s release.  Satan and his followers are destroyed and then comes the judgment or beginning of the second resurrection.  Then comes the Last Great Day (Shemini Atzeret) or the new beginning. 
 
Really now, doesn’t this make more sense than what we were taught? 
 
And now, the next thing I share with you is an observation and calculation of one who has been the recipient of a number of revelations.  (What you have just read is one of them.)  I claim no prophet status but have lived for over 76 years and seen many changes in that time.   Space in this brief summary does allow me to show all the supporting evidence for this conclusion, how-ever, it is my considered opinion that the Abomination of Desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, will be placed during the last half of November 2012. This presupposes that the sacrifices will be restarted before then because they will be cut off the same day the AOD is placed.  If this happens, the two witnesses will begin their testimony twenty six and one half days later.  And it is my firm belief that America will be in the process of evacuation at that time due to several nuclear reactors on our east coast in meltdown mode.  For more detail on this, see “The Final Shofar” by this writer. 
 
If there was ever a time to stay wide awake, the time is now.

A TRILLION DOLLAR ECONOMY

From the desk of

A TRILLION DOLLAR ECONOMY
 

When our leaders talk about a trillion dollar economy, how many grasp just what this means?  OK, so it’s three more zeroes past a billion.  But what does that mean?  Perhaps if we translate this from dollars to seconds it will make more sense.  One 24 hour day contains 86,400 seconds.  That’s 24 hrs X 60 min/hour X 60 sec/min.  Therefore one million seconds (1,000,000) is equal to 11.574 days or one million divided by 86,400 sec/day.
 
Now, since one billion (1,000,000,000) is three more zeroes, it is one thousand million.  In other words, in days, it is one thousand times the number of days it takes to make a million seconds.  11.574 X 1,000 = 11,574 days.  To get this into years we simply divide the number of days by the number of days in a year.  11,574/365.25 =31.69 years!  And that’s only one billion seconds. 
 
Now the feds are going to put (or are already putting) 40 billion PER MONTH into the economy as a stimulus.  40 X 31.69 yrs/billion seconds = 1,267 years of seconds. 
 
Please keep in mind that we haven’t even looked at a trillion yet.  And since it is 1,000 times a billion, (1,000,000,000,000) one trillion would amount to 1,000 times the number of years to make a billion seconds or 1,000 X 31.69 = 31,690 years it takes to make one trillion seconds.  And our politicians, with bank bailouts and irresponsible spending, have boosted us into a multi-trillion $ economy. 
 
Are we out of control or what?  Have you the intestinal fortitude to look at where this policy has taken us? 
 
FIGURES DON’T LIE BUT LIARS FIGURE
 
Gold has been the world’s value standard for thousands of years.
 
In 1930, when politicians first began playing games with U.S money, gold sold for $29 per ounce.  Today it sells for $1,500+.
 
In order to calculate the total amount of inflation for the past 82 years, or if you prefer, the value of today’s dollar compared to 1930, we have rock solid numbers to base our calculations on.
 
$29/$1,500 = 0.0193333333 --- which is pretty simple arithmetic and it becomes obvious our current dollar is worth less than 2 cents compared to the 1930 dollar.  And our president is determined to devalue it even lower.  And the only choice for his replacement is Mitt Romney!!!!!!  What a hell of a choice!!!!! 
 
If we call this phenomenon “inflation”, we assume nobody is responsible and therefore nothing can be done to correct it.  If we call it by its true name, only then can we see in proper perspective the true intent and extent of this “legislative piracy”.
 
This election, provided there is one, promises to be, not only the most extravagant, but the most exciting.

OVERLOOKED


9/14/12

From the desk of

Bill Ramey
 
HAVE WE OVERLOOKED SOMETHING?
 
Did our government shoot themselves in the foot when they decided that the Bible is irrelevant?  Can prophecy be trusted as a reliable guide to the future?
 
One of the Old Testament prophets was a man named Daniel and his prophecy was to be sealed at the time of writing until the “time of the end”.  See Daniel 12:4 and 9.  Daniel chapter 11 is the longest running prophecy in the Bible and covers a time span from Daniel’s day (600 BC) to the end of the age when the kingdoms of this world will be turned over to the saints.  When we study this very short book, of only 12 chapters, and compare it to history as it then unfolded, the accuracy is awesome.  There has been a monumental effort mounted, especially in the last century, to discredit this “little book”.  “Scholars” have alleged that it was written hundreds of years after the time Daniel is reported to have lived.  We find the lie put to all their efforts in a book entitled “Cyropedia” by an author named Xenophon written in the 5th century BC that mentions “the prophet Daniel” by name.  Also Christ is quoted in Matthew 24:15 alluding to “the prophet Daniel”.  Was He endorsing a fraud? 
 
The really unsettling part for a world steeped in idolatry, is that the prophecies of the book of Daniel are still unfolding today.  The above mentioned 11th chapter of this book is an encapsulation of some two and one half millennia of events to transpire and it is contained in 45 verses.  Now you don’t cram 2600 years of “history” into 45 verses of scripture --- so this is a very brief synopsis of history before it became history.  If you care to compare it with history as it then unfolded, the Living Bible does a fair job, through footnotes, of identifying the players. 
 
I would like to cover briefly the transition of the first to the second of the 4 empires that were to rule the world (see Daniel 2:38-39) from that day until the end of the age, because I believe it is significant for us today in America.
 
The reason it is significant for us is because America is the New Babylon that is to be destroyed in the near future (see Revelation 18).  This destruction is covered in considerable detail in Jeremiah chapters 50 and 51 where he calls us the “daughter of Babylon”. 
 
The transition, of course, is the fall of the first empire, which was Babylon, and it fell to an inferior empire which was the confederacy of the Medes and Persians.  One aspect of the invasion is covered in the 5th chapter of Daniel and is showing a big party going on for a thousand of the top politicos of the empire of Babylon. 
 
This chapter does not explain the simple ploy used by the Medo-Persian Army that allowed them to bypass the Babylonian military.  We have to go to history for those details.  In a nutshell, here is how they did it.  A sizeable river ran under the walls and through the citadel of Babylon.  What the Medo-Persian Army did was go upstream and divert the river into another channel and then marched into the city through the now dry river bed at night while Babylonian officials were engaged in partying.  How beautifully simple --- huh?
 
Today, of course, there is no Babylonian Empire nor Medo-Persian Empire --- or is there?  If America is the New Babylon --- and it is --- and Iran is the Persian Empire --- and it is --- are we playing with something that is about to blow up in our face?  We have committed to assisting Israel in ensuring that Iran does not become a nuclear threat to the rest of the world.  In order to get a better perspective on this unholy alliance, one needs to know that our nation was created with Vatican money (see “Rulers of Evil” by F Tupper Saussy) and that the Vatican and the Jews are a confederacy that dates back more than 2 millennia.  This is covered in some detail in “The Image of the Beast” by this author but you can read the covenant between them in I Maccabees chapter 8.  The covenant was with the Roman Empire and their response clearly indicated that they considered it to be forever.  Now quasi-intellectuals will counter with, “But the Roman Empire fell in 476 AD so this nullifies that covenant”, but that is another lie we have been spoon fed by our educational institutions.  See Byzantine Empire in any encyclopedia.
 
At this point I must digress to point out to the unwary news watcher that we have been educated into the myth that the little nation of Israel today is the Israel of old and that simply is not true.  You can read for yourself in the books of I and II Kings and I and II Chronicles about the division of the tribes of Israel into two nations, both of which have impacted history dramatically.  One kept the name of Israel and went into captivity 721-720 BC for idolatry.  The other was named the nation of Judah (Jews) and they kept up a pretense of living according to the laws, statutes and precepts of the Creator for another 120 years before also going into captivity 604-586 BC for idolatry as well. 
 
It is generally conceded that Jerusalem was deeded to the Jews by “G_d” Himself but when we begin to put that under the microscope of scripture we find it is more myth.  (See “The Image of the Beast by this author.)  And this is only part of the picture.  While there are Jews living in “Israel”, those in charge are not Jews at all but are those Christ referred to in Revelation 3:9 as “… those who say they are Jews but do lie”.  For a clearer understanding of this, I recommend the book “The Thirteenth Tribe” by Arthur Koestler.  He does a great job of putting the Sephardic/Ashkenazic Jew in perspective and accurately showing their roots.  Anyway, it appears that the Creator does refer to the real estate now named Israel as “Judah”.  Keeping this in mind, let’s move on into the prophecies directed to us today.
 
To set the stage, let’s go to Isaiah 17 and look at verse 1.  “Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city and it shall be a ruinous heap.”  Are you aware that this has never happened?  Now as we watch prophecy unfold in the middle east, we see civil war in Syria and Damascus has become a battleground.  Some have assumed that it would become a ruinous heap as a result of a nuke from Israel because of all the anti-Israel groups headquartered there --- but the prophecy doesn’t say that!  Could it become a ruinous heap as a result of civil war?  No doubt this is being fanned by the CIA/Mossad (a confederacy) as were the civil wars in Egypt and Libya.  If you compare those with Daniel 11:42-43, I hope you can connect the dots.
 
But now, I said the destruction of Babylon was a simple yet effective ploy to bypass the Babylonian military --- could that happen again?  Are we lining up again in these last days with the same powers that did battle some two and a half millennia ago?  Is history about to repeat itself?  Remember, I said that chapters 50 and 51 of Jeremiah are outlining the destruction of America?  Let’s look at the introduction to those chapters and it is in the 49th chapter of Jeremiah, verse 39.  “But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity of Elam saith the LORD.”  For a better understanding of this, it is recommended that you read this in different translations. 
 
Verse 3 of chapter 50 says, “For out of the north there comes up a nation against her, (Babylon), which shall make her land desolate and none shall dwell therein:  they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.”
 
Verse 13 goes on to say, “Because of the wrath of the LORD, it shall not be inhabited but it shall be wholly desolate.”
 
Verse 9 says, “I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country:” Who is north of America, across the pole?  Russia?  China?  Iran?  India? 
 
Verse 41 says, “…many kings shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.”
 
In verse 1 of chapter 51, it says, “I will raise up against Babylon and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up against me a destroying wind…”  Are we seeing those destroying winds in America today? 
 
Now let’s get down to where the rubber meets the road.  Verse 28 of chapter 51 says, “Prepare against her (Babylon) the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof and all the land of his dominion.”   
 
Now let’s look at a verse that I think is highly significant and that is verse 42 of chapter 51. “The sea is come upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.”  Need I point out that Old Babylon was more than 100 miles from the sea? 
 
Now as ominous as this sounds, this is not the end of it.  If we look in the book of Isaiah, chapter 22, we see the heading of the chapter says, “Invasion of Jewry by the Persians”.  Verse 5 makes clear that it is a day of trouble.  “Jacob’s Trouble”?  Verse 6 shows that Elam (Persia) is the aggressor and verse 8 shows that he, “… discovered the covering of Judah…”  Again, this should be read in different translations to get the true perspective here.
 
Isaiah 28 tells us that scripture is written the way it is --- “… line upon line … precept upon precept … here a little and there a little” for a reason.  That reason is found in verse 13:  “…that they might go and fall backward and be broken, snared and taken.”  You see scripture is not written to be understood by the masses nor by rulers.  All the governments of this world belong to Satan (see Luke 4) and are to be destroyed totally, along with all their supporting institutions.  You can see in Daniel 12:10 who it is that will understand prophecy in the end time.  Notice also that the angel who gives Daniel this information is dividing the end time world into only two camps, the wicked and the wise.  We all fall into one of those camps.
 
Just how big a deal will it be in the destruction of Babylon?  We can begin to get a clue in the 46th verse of Jeremiah 50.  “At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.”  Does this put it into proper perspective?  The nation is to be evacuated without an inhabitant left.  The earth is going to be moved!  And it’s all going to take place in the space of one month (see Hosea 5:7).  How can this be? 
 
Perhaps we need to review how this could happen through the corrective lens of events of the past few months.  If we have been watching the news that CNN doesn’t give, to supplement what they do give, we should know that the Japanese tsunami of the past year was generated by an underwater nuke.  We should also know that the radiation from the reactor meltdown there is poisoning the northern hemisphere.  What if we had a dozen reactor meltdowns in America?  Would that be cause for evacuating the nation?  Of course, that couldn’t happen --- or could it? 
 
Jeremiah says the New Babylon (is it co-incidental that New Yorkers call their city “Babylon on the Hudson”?) will be taken out by being covered by waves of the sea (see Jeremiah 51:42).  The very next verse shows that this Babylon is composed of more than one city. 
 
Now I have shown you that Old Babylon was taken by a simple ploy which bypassed the military and they took it without a battle.  Can the New Babylon be taken with just such a ploy?  I don’t see a river that can be diverted giving Persia access to us.  However, the verse quoted above that says the earth will be moved should give us a clue. 
 
We know that there are several calderas situated around this world, such as Yellowstone, that are seething masses of molten earth.  One of these that is listed as a “super-caldera” is located in the Canary Islands just off the west coast of northern Africa.  Scientists that study these things tell us that if it blows in a fashion similar to the last time it blew, thousands of years ago, it will send a 100 feet plus tsunami to our east coast at the speed of a modern jet plane.  Could a nuke in this caldera persuade it to blow?  Think about that for a moment. 
 
Jeremiah 51:42 says it’s going to happen!  Is this why our military personnel and dependents are on standby to move inland?  Could one of those groups vying for dominion of the planet (Jews, Catholics and Muslim) be planning to use this as a weapon and pass it off as a natural event or an “act of God”, as they did with the Japanese tsunami? 
 
Now think of the consequences and how this dovetails nicely with prophecies of the crises at the close of this age (not the end of the world as Catholic myth would have us believe).  It would put no less than a dozen nuclear re-actors on our east coast in meltdown mode.  Can we now see why the land would become desolate --- “…without an inhabitant”?  Can we see why evacuation would have to be carried out quickly?  (Hosea 5:7)  Can we now begin to see how the prophecies of Ezekiel 5 can become a reality and quickly?  Can we begin to see how things are stacking up to bring about the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy to the letter?  Even to the earth being “moved”.

THE FINAL SHOFAR

From the desk of
Bill Ramey

THE FINAL SHOFAR
 


As we review events of the past year, we can see the curtain being drawn on this nation and this age.  We have witnessed two underground nuclear blasts which the news media labeled as “earthquakes”.  The seismographs tell a different story.  We witnessed another nuclear blast three miles down in the ocean which produced a killer tsunami off Japan and put a nuclear reactor on Japan’s east coast in meltdown mode.  It continues to spread radiation across the northern hemisphere and it is my understanding that the Japanese Premier has notified the U.N. that Tokyo may have to be evacuated.  This, I believe, is highly significant in the light of Bible prophecy --- not for Japan, but for the U.S.  More on that later.
 
We have also witnessed the rape and pillage of Egypt and Libya in partial fulfillment of Daniel 11:42-43.  I say partial fulfillment because Ethiopia has not come into the equation yet.  They will and this will set the stage for the fulfillment of verses 44-45.  It appears that this event will be the opening of the 4th seal of Revelation 6.  The smokescreen to hide all this from curious spectators is the American presidential campaign and various scandals.  
 
I have shown in “The Image of the Beast” that America is this image mentioned in Revelation 13 and operates under the jurisdiction of the Roman Empire which we have been led to believe fell in 476 AD.  That is a myth Americans have been raised with but is simply not true.  The book, “The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire” by Edward Gibbon, was published in 1776, and was hailed by the Vatican as “A Great Historical Work” and was a smoke screen to hide the fact that this “image” was a creation of the Vatican (See “Rulers of Evil” by F Tupper Saussy).  The Vatican has also operated for the past millennia plus, under the jurisdiction of the Roman Empire.  (See Revelation 13:12).  They were bequeathed this power for the execution of the inquisition and to bring all the world into the worship of the Roman Empire.  Their hopes for an immediate victory were dashed when the Vatican Navy (the Spanish Armada), was destroyed in 1588 by weather and English Sea Dogs.  The “Image of the (4th beast of Daniel 7) Beast” was conceived for the purpose of building another navy that could wrest control of the seas from England.  The rest is history. 
 
Another major event of the past couple of months, and barely noted by the masses but highly significant to those watching current events and weighing them against prophecy, is the “president’s tacit approval” on homosexuality.  Those who realize that Sodom and Gomorrah were real historical places should be well aware that the knell has been sounded on America.  We only have to turn to the book of Jeremiah chapters 50 and 51 to get the gory details of our demise.  To see how fast it is going to happen, we can check with the prophet Hosea, chapter 5. 
 
There has been much speculation in the past few years about which of the tribes of Israel America is and whether or not we are mentioned in Bible prophecy. I submit to you that we are mixed with the “Daughter of Babylon” and constitute the “clay” in the feet of Nebuchadnezzar’s (Daniel 2) dream image.  (See Isaiah 64:8 and Jeremiah 18:6).  This “Daughter of Babylon” is the image of the beast and the Babylon that is to be destroyed in the latter days of this age.  Her military might will be transferred to the final world ruler who follows the succession of the 7 kings (or presidents) of Revelation 17:10-11.  Will we see that transfer of power this fall?  Perhaps.  But it will come with great fanfare and the beginning of Jacobs trouble which some call the tribulation.  What this means in plain language is the destruction of America! 
 
And some will say, “Ramey, surely you jest”, but no, I do not.  Look at just how quickly the tsunami came upon Japan initiating what amounts to nuclear war between rival factions to see who will rule the planet.  Not only do we have a nuclear meltdown in Japan but we have an economic melt-down worldwide and the “one worlders” are salivating at the prospect of being within reach of their goal. 
 
So let’s see if we can put this all together and make some sense of what is going on.  We in America wave the flag and tell the world that we are a free nation, however, this is a myth we have been raised with and the flag waving is merely one of the rituals in the worship of the image of the beast.  We were created as a puppet to the Vatican and have served in that capacity since inception.  We fight wars to spread our doctrine, (which we call democracy), to the world and yet it amounts to no less than the Roman colonialism of old.  We are the military arm of the Roman Empire working feverishly to consolidate the world into the New World Order.  It is very near a reality and will, no doubt, be born in the bloodbath of the demise of America.  Why do I say America’s demise will be with a bloodbath?  Simply because spilled blood is paid for in spilled blood.  The millions of murders in America, whether infants or adults, will be paid for on a one for one scale. (See Numbers 35).  These are the ones killed by the “sword” (Ezekiel 5). 
 
How long will the destruction of America take?  For the answer to this, let’s turn to Revelation 18:19. 
“And they cast dust on their heads and cried saying, ‘Alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! For in one hour is she made desolate.’”
This, mind you, is the coup de grace.  The softening up process is covered in considerable detail in Jeremiah chapters 50 and 51.  Notice chapter 51, verse 1:  “Thus says the LORD;  ‘Behold, I will raise up against Babylon … a destroying wind.’”  Are the hurricanes and tornadoes of the past few years a part of these “destroying winds”?  Now we have wild fires raging in 9 western states.  Jeremiah 51:25 says, “…I will make of you a burnt mountain.”  In order to see how long the evacuation takes, see Hosea 5:7.
“…Line upon line … precept upon precept … here a little and there a little …”  (Isaiah 28).
 
But is this saying we are to be destroyed as a nation?  Really it says much more than that.  Verse 29 of this same chapter says that the land of Babylon will be left “…without an inhabitant.”  That sounds like evacuation.  Now why would America be evacuated?  Verse 42 of this same chapter indicates that we are about to see a giant tsunami on our east coast.  Remember I said “…more later on this”?  Consider this scenario.  Japan’s tsunami amounted to nuclear warfare.  Could America be taken out the same way?  Scientists know that there is a super caldera in the Canary Islands off the west coast of North Africa.  They say that if it erupts in a fashion comparable to the last time it erupted, thousands of years ago, it will send a tsunami over 100 feet high at our east coast at speeds of a modern jet plane. 
 
Could we ensure that this caldera erupts and call it a natural event as we did the one that hit Japan?  How about another nuke strategically placed in this caldera?  What would be the result of this tsunami?  Japan has one nuclear power plant in meltdown mode; we would have no less than a dozen!  Now the U.S. could be evacuated as a “humanitarian move” by FEMA under the careful eye of those with visions of global dominion --- Viola!  The New World Order!  Order out of chaos!  The final beast and the final three and one half years of this present age!  These FEMA agents will be lauded as heroes by the propaganda department we call the media and we will be told they are our salvation.  In reality, they are the collection agency for inter-national banking (similar to IRS) and they are foreclosing on the national debt.  What you have not been told is that you, your property and your progeny for several generations have been mortgaged to the international banks and Congress has already collected and spent the money.  Now the bankers will foreclose on Americans much the same way they foreclose on a piece of real estate and the “humanitarian move” dubbed as “relocation” is truly relocation but as servants to foreigners who can afford an American slave.  (See Ezekiel 5).  These FEMA agents will have broad discretionary powers to kill those considered too old for service --- that’s what the 450 million rounds of hollow point ammo is about in the next paragraph.
 
Do we recall the hurricane that hit New Orleans a few years back?  This will be thousands of times worse and it is entirely possible that the third of Israel that dies of famine and pestilence will happen in the 30 day evacuation (See Hosea 5) period.  If that be the case, then the tsunami could come on a day like today without a “winter from hell” when Americans die off by the millions.  Hospitals will close at the beginning of this period and there will be no food markets open.  Are we aware that FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Act) agents recently placed an order for 450 million survival food packs?  How long will these last among 300 million Americans?  It becomes obvious that other plans are destined to come into the picture.  It is my understanding that the same agents recently ordered 450 million rounds of hollow point ammunition.  Geneva Conventions forbade the use of hollow point ammo in warfare. 
 
Thinking Americans, who watch what the news does not tell even closer than what they do, suspect that this plan has been in progress for many years. The Jesuits, who constitute the real power in this nation, like to give previews of major events coming up and they do this through the movies, through books like “Alice in Wonderland”, and various other ways.  Does anyone remember some thirty years ago, a movie entitled “The Poseidon Adventure”?  It was about an ocean going passenger liner whose captain got a message of a killer tsunami which his ship was in the path of.  So then the captain had to wrestle with whether or not to tell the passengers and create a full scale panic or to allow death to approach quietly.  Transpose this ship to a ship of state and the captain to a president and you have the dilemma of the president of America at the time this plan comes to fruition.  And come to fruition it will.  (See Jeremiah 51:42).  Many will say this could not happen now because virtually everyone has cell phones.  I submit to you that there will be a few who hear news of the event via short wave or cell phone, however, the vast majority will consider it a rumor until verified by CNN.  And I believe the major networks will bow to a governmental order of silence until it is upon our shores.  Even if it is announced as soon as it happens, there will be 8-9 hours to clear cities on the east coast.  With New Orleans as a reference point, can you imagine the panic and the carnage on the freeways as people try to escape?  And this time FEMA will be too busy organizing for the evacuation to give a hand moving those people inland.  Keep in mind that this is not some conspiracy in a darkened corner of the world.  This is a high stakes poker game in which the winner envisions dominion of planet earth.  And it has been in the planning stage for millennia as we can see when we get behind the mythology of modern history.  Now that an invasion from outer space is looming closer, the drive for a New World Order becomes more urgent so that all military can be consolidated under one head in order to repel this invasion.  (For a preview of the outcome, you can read Zechariah 14).  Prophecy indicates that the New World Order will become a reality and will be the absolute worst time in all of history that ever has been or ever will be.  The good news is that it will last no longer than three and one half years.  At that time it’s rulers and supporters will become vulture food (see Rev 19).
 
There is hardly room in this short brief to give all the supporting documentation behind this article.  But if you think this is wild speculation, just match it up with Daniel 11, Jeremiah 50 and 51, Hosea 5, Isaiah 13, Revelation 18, Ezekiel 5 and many other prophecies of the end of this present age and the ushering in of the Kingdom of Yahveh!  You can even see how Israel’s (Judah’s) defenses will be circumvented and by whom in Isaiah 22. 
 
The “little book” of Daniel has already been handed (opened --- see Rev 10) to the two witnesses of Rev 11.  Their campaign will begin with America’s demise and the clock will begin ticking on the 1260 day countdown to the end of the present age.  (Rev 11).  This is not the end of the world but rather a new beginning.  And we don’t have to vote on it nor brace ourselves for yet higher taxation.  But it will not be without birth pangs. 
 
Things are happening.  Are we watching?
